libXp.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
See below.
I am installing Oracle10g in my FC4, AMD64 box.
Getting the following exception. How do I go from here ?

hi Ivan,

I'm currently istalling 9i using your guide for 9i ( http://ivan.kartik.sk/oracle/install_ora9_fedora.html )

libXp.so.6 is needed for that installation as well.
I see you have added xorg-x11-deprecated-libs package as required package in 10g guide, but you have missed to add that in 9i guide.
You might consider adding it, since the guide is nice and more and more people will start using it (...and asking the same question again and again)
btw: yum works for xorg-x11-deprecated-libs

and last, but not least - thanks for the guide!

Hi, I had the same problem.
I installed xorg deprecated like this:

yum install xorg-x11-deprecated-libs

An then the installer starts without problems.

Thanks a lot for the tip!

Could you post exact error message?

We encountered the same problem and found that there is a slight difference in various xorg-x11-deprecated-libs packages. We had the first package already installed on our RedHat ES4 machine; xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6.rpm. The package we actually needed was xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.6.i386.rpm. Notice the slight difference (i386). Ivan Kartik lists the correct package you need in his install guide. You might have simply grabbed the wrong one like we did.

Hi.
I using Ubuntu in my lapto AMD64 and install JDeveloper 10.1.12.
This lib xorg-x11-deprecated-libs not found for Ubuntu.
Any suggestion ?

Thanks

Hi Ivan.
I try that solution, but the error persist.
I try install JDK5.0, modify jdev.conf (comment line #SetJavaVM hotspot) and run successfully.
This solution is the best ?

Thanks

On my Redhat Enterprise 4 64 bit server this was a problem for me also. I had to install these 32 bit rpm's to fix the error you describe:

expat-1.95.7-4.i386.rpm
expat-devel-1.95.7-4.i386.rpm
fontconfig-2.2.3-7.i386.rpm
fontconfig-devel-2.2.3-7.i386.rpm
freetype-2.1.9-1.i386.rpm
freetype-devel-2.1.9-1.i386.rpm
libaio-0.3.105-2.i386.rpm
libaio-devel-0.3.105-2.i386.rpm
xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.25.1.i386.rpm
xorg-x11-libs-6.8.2-1.EL.13.25.1.i386.rpm
xorg-x11-Mesa-libGL-6.8.2-1.EL.13.25.1.i386.rpm
zlib-1.2.1.2-1.2.i386.rpm
zlib-devel-1.2.1.2-1.2.i386.rpm

These were required as dependencies of the original required packages.

Because my RHN network account was set up to install 64 bit rpm's I had to log onto the RHN website to download these 32 bit rpm's and ftp them to the server to and install them.

There may be a way to change my up2date settings in RHN on this server to get these 32 bit rpm files directly using the upd2date command, but I dont know how at this point.

One other annoying side note - the release notes for OEM grid control for linux appears to give the wrong information for one entry of kernel parameters in /etc/sysctl.conf .

#kernel.shmmax = 536870912 is wrong

#kernel.shmmax = 2147483648 is correct

Otherwise you will get an error during the install.

Best of luck,
David
