Error message on install ARGGGG

[Radke, Theresa A]

I'm sorry, I thought I'd made it clear that I did try that path the way
the scripts were calling it and I got no such file or directory.

I've never seen a path with a double slash work, that is a new one on
me.

I only have one ORACLE_HOME but I am with you on the 64bit issue and am
in the process of installing the latest 64 bit Oracle 9 release, here is
hoping that works.

Thanks!

I have seen "//" many times in the past in Oracle installation scripts
and that has never caused a problem. You should be able to verify
whether it is a problem by giving the path you think is a problem as an
argument to ls and seeing what happens. I doubt it is causing any
trouble in your case.

What I am wondering about is the possibility of 32-bit versus 64-bit
libraries. I don't see a Linux amd64 version available for download on
OTN, but I understand those are only made available some time after
subscription distribution.

So my question becomes, what architechure are you running on - is it
i386 or x86_64? If your system is a 32-bit machine then everything
should be i386 and elf32 file formats. You can check this using

objdump -f <library-file>.so

Also, do you have multiple Oracle homes? If so, it is possible you have
an environment variable set that is causing the link to refer to files
in the wrong Oracle home.
