Hi,
Upon installing Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1.0) on a Debian box, the whole install process completes,
but when I get to the very end and it trys to setup configuration assistants, all three fail with the following error:

"jre was not found in /ora/9iR2/oracle.swd.jre/bin/i386/native_threads/jre"

I have tried symlinking the i386 and i686 directories as has been suggested from a search of forums..
The result is that I get a variety of messages, ranging from "jre cannot be found" to "Error: Cannot find libjava.so".

I've tried copying these files to places where it expects to find them and end up with looping:
e.g. paths like this: i386/bin/i386/bin/lib

Why is it looking in i386 anyway when "uname" returns i686 (not sure of the exact hardware, I can check if necessary) ?
