I’m looking to see if I could get some help installing ODAT in Kali Linux. I get this error
└─$ sudo apt-get install odat
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree… Done
Reading state information… Done
E: Unable to locate package odat

I checked the /etc/apt/sources.list and everything looks correct.

deb Index of /kali kali-rolling main contrib non-free non-free-firmware

Thanks in advance for any tips!

For anyone else who runs into this issue you either need to run the installer as a bash script and or copy and paste the entire block into the kali zsh shell for it to work.

Odat is by default installed, idk how you got into this issue

Actually I thought I had it fixed , but it’s still broken. I don’t believe oracle has a client that can run on the arm64 for Mac.

I went down the rabbit hole of trying to install it from the GitHub and get an error on the oracle installer telling my my system isn’t compatible.

I’m running a brand new kali vm - fresh install

use kali-tweaks, and install everything, also do a sudo apt-get clean, sudo apt-get autoremove --purge, sudo apt-get update, sudo apt-get dist-upgrade and finally sudo kali-tweaks, and install all the metapackages

It is definitely not default installed. I have a new install, everything updataed and have all metapackages installed through kali-tweaks and get the same response as koz as follows -

sudo apt-get install odat
Reading package lists… Done
Building dependency tree… Done
Reading state information… Done
E: Unable to locate package odat

I then spent the last couple of hours trying to install through the github page for odat installing oracle etc and depsite trying several times and following the instructions I now get the following response -

./odat.py all -s
11:53:20 ERROR -: Impossible to load local configuration files in conf/ and to set driver_name: DPI-1047: Cannot locate a 64-bit Oracle Client library: “libclntsh.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory”.

Any help or guidance to get this working is much appreciated!
