I can tell you what I know. I just tried to install Oracle 7.3.4.x on an HP system running on HP-UX 10.20. When I tried to link svrmgrm I get an error. We tried several times by changing the makefile for this with no luck. Bottom line: Oracle suggests to use Server Manager via command line (use svrmgrl).

There was a problem with the links and X Motif files which caused the problem. One solution Oracle gave us was to install the previous version from 7.3.2 and maybe it would work. Otherwise, try and learn to use the command line version since for Oracle 8 this will no longer be available.

I wish you luck,
