Error in invoking target 'all_no_orcl ihsodbc' Tips

I'm installing Oracle 10.2.0 on RHEL 4 ES. The Linux runs on VMWare 5.5.1. The Virtual Machine has 1 Gb of RAM, and 10Gb of hard drive space (/dev/sda).

When I was running the Oracle Universal Installer, I got the following error message:

uError in invoking target 'all_no_orcl ihsodbc' of makefile
'/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk'.
See '/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2006-10-16_06-41-37PM.log'
for details.

And when I opened the log file (installActions2006-10-16_06-41-37PM.log), here's what I got:

However, save that part, the rest of installation went smooth.

I just wonder, what's the error message supposed to mean? What actually happened? What the worst could happen, based on that one particular error?

Answer:

This error needs to be fixed!

Here is a complete fix:

http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle10g.shtml

Error in invoking target 'all_no_orcl ihsodbc' of makefile '/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk'.
See '/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions2005-07-24_09-25-22AM.log' for details.

The log file showed the following error:

INFO: Creating /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/lib/liborasdkbase.so.10.2
INFO: gcc:
INFO: /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5: No such file or directory
INFO:

INFO: /u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/bin/genorasdksh: Failed to link liborasdkbase.so.10.2


This means that the "33" version of the compat-libstdc++ RPM is missing.

On my RHEL 4 U2 x86 system for 10g R2 (10.2.0.1.0) I installed the following RPM to fix this problem:
# rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm

NOTE: You need the "33" version of the compat-libstdc++ RPM. For i386 there is also a "296" version of the compat-libstdc++ RPM. Here are the two compat-libstdc++ RPMs that come with RHEL 4 U2:
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.3.i386.rpm


In Fedora Core 4 x86 I installed the following RPM to fix this problem:
# rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.fc4.i386.rpm

NOTE: You need the "33" version of the compat-libstdc++ RPM. For i386 there is also a "296" version of the compat-libstdc++ RPM. Here are the two compat-libstdc++ RPMs that come with FC4:
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.fc4.i386.rpm
compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-47.fc4.i386.rpm


After that, hit Retry in the error dialog window.

If you happen to have hit continue, simply re-run the makefile.
