It's been a while since I've prepared an Oracle Linux server. Today I got handed a hot potato - "An Oracle Linux server with missing Libraries". This is often the case with oracles installer - It won't install without the proper libraries. What had happened was the previous sysadmin installed the 32bit versions of the libraries and Oracle was looking for the 64bit version. However, with Redhat's default rpm -qa command it often displays only the package but doesn't tell you the architecture of the package. Here's a neat command that would display the architecture of the installed package.
rpm -qa --queryformat "%{NAME}-%{VERSION}.%{RELEASE} (%{ARCH})\n"
Give this a try the next time you install a 64bit Redhat system.
