I was trying to Install oracle database 11.2.0.3 on one of newly configured Oracle Solaris 11 X86-64 bit BOX. I have encountered below error message while executing runInstaller: jdk/jre/ lib/amd64/motif21/libmawt.so: ld.so.1: java: fatal: libXm.so open failed no such file or directory Cause: Installer is expecting library file  "libmawt.so" which eventually doesn't exists.
