Oracle 8i ver 8.1.7, Sun Solaris ver 8, running on Sun Ent 450.Compiler gcc

I'm trying to install typical installation of Oracle, it copies from both CD's and starts installation and then stops prompting with "Error in invoking target nautab.o of makefile
/opt/.../lib/ins_nau.mk", telling him to ignore generated many such
errors.
I looked at InstallActions.log file and here the last entries before it failed

Calling action unixActions1.7.1.8.0 make

	installMakePath = /usr/ccs/bin/make
	installMakeFileName =


/opt/oracle/product/8.1.7/network/lib/ins_nau.mk

	installTarget = nautab.o
	installArguments = ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/8.1.7,NAU_ADAPTERS="KERBEROS5
IDENTIX SECURID RADIUS ",
	undoMakeFileName = null
	undoTarget = null
	undoArguments = null
	logFile = /opt/oracle/product/8.1.7/install/make.log

Exception thrown from action: make

Exception String: Error in invoking target nautab.o of makefile

Also looking at make.log files I found

I ignored all these errors but the net configuration assistant hangs and so does the apache web server part.
Fortunately the database gets created.

I tried to do a lot of google but doesn't help much. Any pointers ?? Received on Wed Mar 06 2002 - 17:35:16 CST
