   Hi,
   INSTALLATION OF ORACLE 7.3.4.0.0 ON SCO OPENSERVER 5 FAILS
   ==========================================================
   
   Versions Affected
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   ORACLE version 7.3.4.0.0
   
   
   Platforms Affected
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   SCO Openserver 5.0.2, 5.0.4 & 5.0.5 (all running Enterprise Edition)
   
   
   Description
   ~~~~~~~~~~~
   There is a known issue when installing ORACLE 7.3.4.0.0 on SCO Openserver 5
   (Enterprise Edition).  During the relinking stage of the RDBMS the
   following errors are reported:
   
   Error during action 'Creating ntcontab.o'.
   Command:  make -f
   /u2/app/oracle/product/7.3.4/network/lib/ins_network.mk ntcontab.o
   (if [ "compile" = "compile" ] ;then    /u2/app/oracle/product/7.3.4/bin/gennttab > ntcontab.c ;   cc  -c ntcontab.c ;   rm -f /u2/app/oracle/product/7.3.4/lib/ntcontab.o ;   mv ntcontab.o /u2/app/oracle/product/7.3.4/lib ;fi)
      /bin/sh: cc: not found
      mv: cannot access ntcontab.o: No such file or directory (error 2)
      make: *** [ntcontab.o] Error 2
   
   This is because the 'SCO Openserver Enterprise Edition' operating system does
   not include a C compiler by default.  This is only available with the 'SCO
   Development Kit'.  
   
   Likelihood of Occurrence
   ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
   You will hit this problem each time you attempt to install ORACLE 7.3.4.0.0
   on SCO Openserver running the Enterprise system.
   
   
   Workaround
   ~~~~~~~~~~
   There are two possible workarounds:
   
   1) Install the SCO Development Kit.  An Additional license is required from
       SCO.  This installs the C compiler and additional development tools.
   
   2) Obtain the 'SCO_V734_INSTALL.tar' from Oracle Support Services(OSS).  This tar file
       contains the following files:
   
       - $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/ins_rdbms.mk
       - $ORACLE_HOME/network/ins_network.mk
       - $ORACLE_HOME/svrmgr/ins_svrmgr.mk
       - $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/env_rdbms.mk
       - $ORACLE_HOME/network/env_network.mk
       - $ORACLE_HOME/svrmgr/env_svrmgr.mk
       - inst.sh
       - README
   
       - untar the file into the /tmp directory and follow the README file
         suppiled.
       - During the installation select 'no' when asked to relink Oracle
         product executables.  Ignore any errors that mention the executables
         for the RDBMS were not made successfully
   
   Hope this helps.
