Well, something's wrong with the OS. I would consider the following options:

1. Is it a new server? Could it be rebuild from scratch? Rebuilding the server could be cheaper in terms of time and effort than troubleshooting the issue.
2. For a server that hosts other applications and is known to have no other problems (other than the isainfo's output), you could check if executing the database installer with the ignoreSysPrereqs option could help.

Do you know what's the word size of the server - 32 or 64bit (apparently isainfo is not able to determine it)? What's the version and the implementation (32/64bit) ot the Oracle database software that you're trying to install?
1. This is not a new server and I would like to avoid building from scratch. This machine primarily hosts some intensive network monitoring software in a redundant configuration with another identical machine.
2. The oracle DB upgrade is wrapped in a package for the overall network monitor. The DB is just a step in the process. I have not attempted, nor am quite sure how, to execute the install telling it to ignore System Pre Reqs. Also if I was able to do this, I'd be stuck at the same issue I am today Smilie . So I don't believe that is a solution for me.

This is a 64bit machine installing a 64bit program.

I may ultimately end up having to re-install, but I really really want to avoid this scenario.

Please give the following output

Code:
isainfo
isainfo -b
isalist

Does something change when you switch to C locale

Code:
export LC_ALL=C

?
See below for the outputs.

No it doesn't look like there are any changes.


Code:
bash-3.2# isainfo
isainfo: unable to identify isa '3md64'!
bash-3.2# isainfo -b
isainfo: unable to identify isa '3md64'!
bash-3.2# isalist
amd64 pentium_pro+mmx pentium_pro pentium+mmx pentium i486 i386 i86

I appreciate everyone's help. If I end up going the re-install route, I'll have a similar headache as I do now.
