Configuration of Pro*C/C++ 8.1.5 (Oracle 8.1.5) on Red Hat 6.0 Linux (2.2.5-15 kernel)

Hello,

I installed Pro*C/C++ 8.1.5 on a Red Hat 6.0 (2.2.5-15 kernel) Linux machine running Oracle 8.1.5 Enterprise Edition and I am experiencing problems when compiling a .c file successfully produced by the Pro*C precompiler from the sample1.pc program. In other words the first step - Pro*C precompilation - works and I get sample1.c and sample1.o (and a sample1.lis - what is that?) files, but then the subsequent C compilation errors out with this message:

/usr/bin/ld: cannot open -laio: No such file or directory.

Here is the full screen of the error:

It looks like the linker ld thinks that the options -laio are a file it needs to use?

The OS compiler has been working fine on its own. I've used it to compile a number of pure C apps.
I configured Pro*C as described in the installation documentation - environment variables, the
$ORACLE_HOME/precomp/admin/pcscfg.cfg file, etc. I tried to compile the $ORACLE_HOME/precomp/demo/proc/sample1.pc programs like this: make -f demo_proc.mk sample1

and received an error "cannot find stddef.h as well as other .h files". I searched the file system for this header file and found it in the
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.66/include
/usr/src/linux-2.2.5/include/linux

directories, so I added the lines
include=/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i386-redhat-linux/egcs-2.91.66/include include=/usr/src/linux-2.2.5/include/linux to the pcscfg.cfg file.

Please let me know if you've encountered similar or the same problems or if you know how to resolve them.

Thanks,
