Installation of Oracle 10.2 on Suse Linux

[oradba101]

Good morning, all

I am trying to install Oracle10g Rel. 2 on a Suse Linux 9.3 PC. This is the 64-bit version. I had no problems installing the 32-bit (both Oracle and Suse) but now when I try to install on a 64-bit system I get the following error message:

"Error in invoking target "client_sharedlib" of makefile
'...ins_net_client.mk'."

This occurs when the linking part of the install starts.

What is the error?

You're going to have to do more digging in the build logs, that's not enough to go on.

Hi, Eric

I believe the problem is attempting to install Oracle 32-bit on 64-bit SuSE 9.3. Someone from another forum pointed this out to me. I should have realized this when I saw the Oracle download file name. Fortunately, I am able to slip in and out of idiocy without altering world events or harming innocent bystanders. Thanks for your help.
