Hi there,

   I got a few moment to spare so I may as well type something here. I installed successfully Ora817 for Redhat 7.1.

   Here are the steps: (Taken from http://www.thomasfly.com/Oranux/)

1. Download these four rpm
2. compat-glibc-6.2-2.1.3.2.i386.rpm
3. compat-libs-6.2-3.i386.rpm
4. compat-egcs-6.2-1.1.2.14.i386.rpm
5. IBMJava118-SDK-1.1.8-5.0.i386.rpm

 Go to http://www.thomasfly.com/Oranux/ and get these files.

  2. Install all the rpm's above in sequence mentioned above. Note:

     IBMJava118 will be installed at /usr/jdk118

  3. Download also env_ctx.mk and shell-mods.sh from the site and put them

     under /tmp.   

  4. Create an account for Oracle with group dba.

  5. Login as Oracle and copy /tmp/shell-mods.sh to .bashrc for Oracle.

  6. Modify the $ORACLE_HOME, $ORACLE_BASE and SID in .bashrc according to

     your desire.

  7. Set the DISPLAY. Now, you can run ./runInstaller.   

  8. UI will prompt you for jre. Enter /usr/jdk118/bin (from step 2)

  9. Nearly upon completion, there will be an error stating "Error in

     invoking target install of makefile $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk",
     then you copy /tmp/env_ctx.mk to $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib/ and click on the
     retry button. It will go thru smoothly!

1. DONE.
