Symptoms

 Relink all fails with the following symptoms

• relinkActions<timestamp>.log:
  • "The java.library.path system variable is missing or invalid. Please set java.library.path with a correct value and retry the operation"
• strace content:
  • Address mapping seg faults triggering a return
    SIGSEGV {si_signo=SIGSEGV, si_code=SEGV_MAPERR, si_addr=NULL}
    rt_sigreturn({mask=[QUIT]}) = 6
  • Inability to find a subset of extracted class files in /tmp where corresponding jar in Oracle Home contains the correct classes, has the correct permissions, ownership, and size.  In this case, it happened for LogLevel.class of OraInstaller.jar
  • This occurred after several thousand files were extracted but was NOT related to any ulimit or cgroup.
    stat("/tmp/OraInstall<date-timestamp>/oracle/sysman/oui/logging/LogLevel.class", <Memory address>) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
