Oracle 11gR2 Installation Failure - elfutils-libelf-devel rpm failure

Prem KumarJul 15 2010 — edited Apr 25 2013
Dear All,

I have the following configuration:

Host OS: Windows XP 32-bit
VM s/w: VM Ware Server - 2
Guest OS: Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5.5 64-bit
Database: Oracle 11g Release 2 for Linux 64-bit


I have followed all the required prerequisite steps but installtion gets stuck at "Pre-requisites check".
I receive an error saying "elfutils-libelf-devel-0.125" is missing.

When I try to install, i get dependency errors. I have tried to google for a solution but nothing seems to work. Also, Oracle Support is also not useful in this case.

Appreciate if anybody could provide some help.

Single rpm application:
[root@abis1 RHEL5_EE_64_RPMs]# rpm -ivh elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm 
warning: elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 37017186
error: Failed dependencies:
        elfutils-libelf-devel-static-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
        elfutils-libelf-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
        libelf.so.1 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
[root@abis1 RHEL5_EE_64_RPMs]# 
Applying both the rpm's together:
[root@abis1 RHEL5_EE_64_RPMs]# rpm -ivh elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm elfutils-libelf-devel-static-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm 
warning: elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 37017186
error: Failed dependencies:
        elfutils-libelf-i386 = 0.137-3.el5 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
        libelf.so.1 is needed by elfutils-libelf-devel-0.137-3.el5.i386
[root@abis1 RHEL5_EE_64_RPMs]# 
Also, tried using YUM:
[root@abis1 RHEL5_EE_64_RPMs]# yum -y install binutils compat-libstdc++-33 elfutils-libelf elfutils-libelf-devel gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-common glibc-devel glibc-headers libaio libaio-devel libgcc libstdc++ libstdc++-devel make sysstat unixODBC unixODBC-devel
