8i installing problem on RH Linux 6.2

hi all,

here is an error I have encountered after ran command ./runInstaller in /usr/src/Disk1

[root_at_localhost /root]# su - oracle
[oracle_at_localhost oracle]$ cd /usr/src/Disk1/
[oracle_at_localhost Disk1]$ ./runInstaller

I suspected that maybe glibc (2.1.3-15 was the one I had by default) is not compatible; so I downloaded jdk118_v3-glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2 and tar it. on /usr/local without uninstalling the previous version. didn't know how or if I should've since I am a linux newbie. next step was to make a link as ln -s /usr/local/jdk118_v3 /usr/local/java

then ran runinstaller the same error poped up. what did I do wrong? I did follow every procedure what this guy said on his web site. http://jordan.fortwayne.com/oracle Received on Mon Feb 11 2002 - 00:15:03 CST
