Cloning eBS on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5

When cloning an eBS environment on Oracle Enterprise LInux 5, the following error is shown on both the db and app Tier.

Checking for make... found - /usr/bin/make
Checking for ld... found - /usr/bin/ld
Checking for cc... found - /usr/bin/cc
Checking for ar... found - /usr/bin/ar
Checking for ksh...
Unable to find 'kshell' in path
Unable to locate all utilities with system path.

Looking in the clone script showed me the error came from the adchkutl.sh script in the $COMMON_TOP/clone/bin directory for appTier and the $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/clone/bin directory for the dbTier. In the script it's checking for ksh using the following syntax...

#

# Verify for ksh if its a linux only platform

#

if test $UNAME = "Linux"; then

printf "Checking for ksh...\t";

VERSN=`/bin/ksh -c 'echo $KSH_VERSION' grep "PD KSH";`;

EC=$?

if test $EC != "0" ; then

printf "\nUnable to find 'kshell' in path\n";

SHOW_PATH=1

else

printf "found - $VERSN\n";

fi

fi

When manually checking for the ksh version on Linux 5...

[root@ebs ~]# /bin/ksh -c 'echo $KSH_VERSION'

But when doing the same thing on Linux 4...

[root@ebs ~]# /bin/ksh -c 'echo $KSH_VERSION'

@(#)PD KSH v5.2.14 99/07/13.2

So, it seems the check does not work anymore on Linux 5 ???

For now, I changed both scripts so the check didn't take place. I also logged an TAR, a new script should be delivered....

The new script is delivered in patch 6718351 '11I RAPIDCLONE CONSOLIDATED FIXES JUL/2008'
