Re: [Zope] DCOracle Compile Problem
When trying to compile the DCOracle package, I get the error below.
I am using Oracle8i, version 8.1.5.0.0. I have checked ORACLE_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH. I can connect with sqlplus. ProC is installed and configured. I know I am missing something simple, but its going right past me.
Compiling Oracle is not for the faint of heart. With each release brings new library orders and contortions that you have to go through. We do our testing on Solaris (x86 actually) because that's what our paying customer runs (the run Sparc, but...). It would be great to be able to ./configure it, but it just doesn't work in practice, so if you don't understand Oracle, you're going to have a hard time getting it compiled. Perhaps we can move some of the stuff to more compartmentalized options (more like what _tkinter uses). This is something to think about. If people can send me the options they used with getting it compiled along with; * OS and revision * Oracle revision * Incense burned while compiling I'll be happy to include some information with the distribution.

Ok. This took me several days because I belong in the faint of heart category. I got Oracle 8.1.5.0.0 to compile on Red Hat 6.0. I have attached my Setup file below. This is probably overkill, but it works for me. Unfortunately, I used a vary rare form of unpronouncable herbal incense. Setup File *shared* # Setup file for Oracle 8.0.4 (Tested for Solarus on Intel and Sparc). # # Unfortunately, the libraries needed to link Oracle change from revision # to revision. # # Oracle provides a make file for building "demo" programs in # $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/demo/demo_rdbms.mk. I have been unable to # use this make file to build Python extensions. Adapting it is # not adequate, because it may change for new Oracle revs. # My approach is to use demo_rdbms.mk to build one of the # demo programs, look at the libraries linked, and start from there. :-( # ORACLE_INCLUDES=$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/demo -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/public -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/network/public -I$(ORACLE_HOME)/plsql/public ORACLE_L=-lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lclient8 -lvsn8 -lcommon8 -lskgxp8 -lgeneric8 -lmm -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lclient8 -lvsn8 -lcommon8 -lskgxp8 -lgeneric8 -ltrace8 -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -lclient8 -lvsn8 -lcommon8 -lskgxp8 -lgeneric8 -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -lcore8 -lnls8 -ldl -lm -lpthread -ldl -lm -ldl -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lnro8 -lnbeq8 -lnhost8 -lnus8 -lldapclnt8 -lnsslb8 -lnoss8 -lnoname8 -lntcp8 -lntcps8 -lnsslb8 -lntcp8 -lntns8 -ln8 -lnl8 -lsql8 -lsql8 ORACLE_LIBS=$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/ -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/lib $(ORACLE_HOME)/rdbms/lib/defopt.o $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/sscoreed.o $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/nautab.o $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/naeet.o $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/naect.o $(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/naedhs.o $(ORACLE_L) $(ORACLE_L) oci_ oci_.c -I$(ORACLE_INCLUDES) -L$(ORACLE_LIBS) -DDCORACLE8 Buffer Buffer.c

There! That's the problem: You didn't slaughter a goat and you didn't use red candles. Incense!?! Such lightweights! :-) :-) -scooter -- Scott Michel |"Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to | hate.
