RDBMS Version: 8.1.6
Operating System and Version: AIX4.3.3
Error Number (if applicable):
Product (i.e. SQL*Loader, Import, etc.): Oracle Server(RDBMS)
Product Version: 8.1.6

Error while installing Oracle server 8.1.6 on AIX4.3.3. (Error in invoking target install of makefile.)

I installed Oracle8.1.6 on AIX4.3.3 and I've got an error
"Error in invoking target install of makefile /home/oracle/product/8.1.6/network/lib/ins_net_client.mk"

Then I tried to like the client utilities manually.
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib
$ touch ldflags
$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib
$ make -f ins_net_client.mk mkldflags
$ make -f ins_net_client.mk ntcontab.o

$ make -f ins_net_client.mk install
I've got another error from the above command.
"ld: 0706-006 Cannot find or open library file: -l m
ld: open(): A file or directory in the path name does not exist."
But I don't know what files that cannot found because there are many files in the script. How should I do to solve this problem?

Thanks.

Darin

Hi,

The system is missing the AIX libm.a math library.

You can do an advanced search in Metalink on
"ld:0706-006 can not find or open library file : -l m" and you will see DOC ID 1015781.6 returned in the list of documents. It will explain how to install the AIX library.

After you install the library, you can relink using "$ORACLE_HOME/bin/relink all"
