Folks,

After running the Oracle Installer I received the following error:

Initializing Java Virtual Machine from ../stage/Components/oracle/swd/jre/1.
1.7/1/DataFiles/Expanded/jre//solaris/bin/jre. Please wait...
ld.so.1: /cdrom/volume_name/install/../stage/Components/oracle/swd/jre/1.1.7/1/DataFiles/Expande
d/jre//solaris/bin/../bin/i386/native_threads/jre: fatal: libX11.so.4: open failed: No such file
or directory
Killed

Does anyone know why libX11.so.4 is not present in /usr/lib? It's present on my Sparc box but not on my Intel box (error coming from Solaris 8 Intel box).

I think this error has to do with the fact that I can't connect to x-windows on the Intel server as well. Maybe I forgot to install a package or something?

Any help, or hints is would be appreciated.

Thanks,

StickyBit.


 
For the folks who care, the problem is now resolved.

I forgot to include /usr/openwin/lib in my lib path.

StickyBit.
