Oracle 8.1.7 doesn't work with Redhat 7.0, as has been posted here *many* times before. You need a glibc patch

I will quote verbatim a similar response

I don't know why this issue appears again and again in this newsgroup. If you
would have read the archives you would have seen that RH 7.0 does not work with
8.1.7 because the glibc version is wrong. You need a patch for this. For details
please see technet.oracle.com.
