RE: problem running dbca

I believe that SLES7 was based on SuSE Pro 7.2/7.3 which were both certified for 8i and 9i and SuSE SLES 8 was/is based on 8.0 like you said....

I had it running on 7.2 Pro (and even 7.2 personal) with no hitches.....true about which gcc gets installed....

IIRC SuSE 8.0 was one that a release of SuSE ES was based on so Oracle certified for the ES release would have a better chance of working on that than on another release. As I recall I tried it on SuSE 8.1 Professional and got a similar error to the one you reported.=20 Similarly Oracle 9i1 wouldn't run on RedHat 7.3 but I'm told it will work (with some fiddling) on RedHat 7.0.

It's often down to which libraries get installed.

It's better to ask a silly question than to make a silly assumption.
