i'am trying to install oracle 9i on an AIX 5.1 64bits, and the
installation didn't succed very well, i had severals error when it tried
to lauch makefiles, for example it can't get the target for "make
/oracle_path/network/lib/ins_net_server.mk".

Then i have try to a relink all and i had the error :

"ld: 0711-740 ERROR: Input file /oracle_path/rdbms/lib/opimai.o : is a
discontinued XCOFF64 file."



My system is 64bits and the oracle release i'm using is for 64bits

IIRC, IBM changed the format of 64-bit XCOFF between AIX 4.3.3 and 5.x.
Perhaps you need a newer subrelease of Oracle?

Are you trying to install Oracle 8.*?

If you look at the support matrix, Oracle 9.2.0 is the first version
supported on AIX 5.1 running a 64-bit kernel.
