Oracle 9.2 and RH9.0.93

[Igor Gorbounov]

There was a workaround to handle the Oracle obsoleteness for install under
RH9.0:
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5;./runInstaller
but it doesn't work any more in RH 9.093:
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from 
/tmp/OraInstall2003-07-24_03-17-12PM/jre/bin/java. Please wait...
Error occurred during initialization of VM
Unable to load native library: 
/tmp/OraInstall2003-07-24_03-17-12PM/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol 
__libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link 
time reference

So anybody has perhaps found some way out of this situation?
    Hopefully,
       Igor Gorbounov

You can modify the installer to use either the 1.3.x or 1.4.x JVMs, and that 
will work.

However, some of the GUI java admin tools you use after install also use the 
1.1.8 JVM Oracle ships, and for some of those, you cannot change them to use 
a later JVM (well, you can, but it won't work ;-)

later,

Try LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19 ./runInstaller

Not only that, but that JVM uses glibc private symbols it should never
touch.

Sorry, it doesn't work either :-(

It looks like the oracle installer is using a JVM compiled with a really
old version of GLIBC.  Is there any way to make the installer use a
different JVM, something like the 1.4.2 that's compiled for RHL 9 ?  If
the installer uses the "installshield" class, you can use the parameters
"-is:javahome /path/to/jdk"

Obviously you will have to first download an appropriate jdk.  However,
if the Oracle installer doesn't use InstallShild, that won't help.

Also, is there a compat-glibc to provide backwards compatibility in
Severn?  The package list shows a compat-libstdc++ but I can't seem to
find a compat-glibc... hmm.
