The following information is how I build Oracle. The OS is a trimmed down version of RHEL 5.0 x86_64, and I install the mandatory Oracle packages like So: Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 2.6.18-8.el5 #1 SMP x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux yum install kernel-headers.x86_64 gcc-c++.x86_64 libstdc++-devel.x86_64 glibc-headers.x86_64 glibc-devel.i386 glibc-devel.x86_64 libgomp.x86_64 gcc.x86_64 compat-db.i386 compat-db.x86_64 compat-libstdc++-33.i386 compat-libstdc++-33.x86_64 libXp sysstat.x86_64 libaio.x86_64 libaio.i386 xorg-x11-xauth libXt.i386 libXt.x86_64 libXtst.i386 libXtst.x86_64 Regards, Geofrey Rainey Systems Engineer D. 64 9 916 7178 M. 64 21 563 106 geofrey.rainey@xxxxxxxxxx -----Original Message----- From: redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:redhat-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Scott R.

There is a clear difference between the query (above) and what I believe I have installed. Either I've done everything, and CentOS/rpm -qa is wrong, or that something else I need to do is just eluding me, hense my plee to this list. At the moment, the Oracle piece is actually too advanced for this issue. It really comes down to something more fundamental. I may take you up on the idea of yum remove <package> and yum install <package> for those reporting as not being installed.
