Oracle 10g on Red Hat Linux 9

Hello,
Contrary to what Oracle advise, we're about to install Oracle 10g on Red Hat 9. I'm afraid that the decision is out of my hands.
Has anyone installed Oracle 10g database on Red Hat 9? and if so, is the database running smoothly? If not what type of problems have you experienced?
Thanks in advenace.
Kind Regards,
Rudi

but my installation is failed :
after i type in ./runInstaller,the following exception is throw:
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-2.1, UnitedLinux-1.0 or redhat-3

why?thanks for any helps!!!!

  • Installation of OracleAS 10g on Red Hat Linux ES 3.0

    Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
    Copy from OTN Note
    Start
    Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support
    o     Accept the default.
    13.     Time Zone Selection
    o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
    14.     Set Root Password
    o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.
    15.     Package Group Selection
    o     Select only the package sets shown here. Leave all others unselected.

    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

  • Oracle 10g on red hat linux enterprise 4

    Please
    Is REH enterprise 4 is perfect for installing oracle 10g or are there any installation issues. please guide me any one
    Nasir

    Hi everyone
    Even though I'm an Oracle ACE I'm not an ACE in the Linux operating system.
    I am getting a new laptop that has 4 GB RAM and a server that has a quad-core with 4 GB RAM and SCSI drives. Both of these are using the Windows operating system, the laptop using WIndows XP and the server using 2003 Server.
    I have been advised to use VM Ware to install Linux and then install my Oracle database and / or application server.
    Has anyone done this and would you be willing to give me some pointers?
    I also noticed in this thread that someone is not recommending the use of Linux 5 from Oracle but rather use version 4, update 5. Would you be willing to let me have the low down on this?
    If anyone has any white papers or word documents that show how to install Linux 4.5 on VM Ware I would be most grateful. My email address is: [email protected]
    Best wishes

  • Oracle 10G on Red Hat Linux

    I have an OLD Compaq Workstation with 128MB RAM and 2 disk drives. One has Win98 and nothing else [5.5Gig Free] and the other drive is 4 Gig with Fedora on it [About 2.5 Gig free]. I am in the process of trying to install 10G on it. The install doc talks about a minimum of 512MB RAM and I am only installing Standard Edition. Would I still need that much of RAM in order to install 10G for a Single User???
    Your thoughts are deeply solicited.

    I want to clarify that I installed Oracle10g on RH9.
    I did install it on Fedora.
    This can help you:

See '/db/oraInventory/logs/installActions2011-02-11_01-01-54-07AM.log' for details.IMHO The answer is should be possible providing you install a suitable 32 bit os (eg RHEL 5 32 bit) as a guest (eg oracle/sun vm virtualbox) and install on the guest. This can be troublesome and awkward, but there are small subset of cases where this may right in some circumstances. And this answer is a little bit of a cheat really.
    In general the earlier answers are better unless you have particular reasons.

  • Oracle Upgrade 8.1.7.4 to 10g in Red hat linux

    Dear All,
    We are planning to upgrade our oracle database from 8i to 10g along with the Redhat linux upgrade from  2.4.9-e 27 ent to Red Hat Linux 5. In my study and also from Installation guides and oracle upgrade guides I made sure that its possible to upgrade our database from 8.1.7.4.
    So I have planned the below options to do the same and not sure about the possibilities. If anyone have thoughts and idea on the same please suggest me.
    We dont have plan to migrate the development hardware and the sap version is 4.7E
    Option 1: Upgrade the Linux to 5 and then upgrading the database to 10g usign upgrade assistant tool
    Option 2: Export the database using sapinst tool and then crashing the server. Installing linux5 and importing the database using sapinst tool.(I am aware this is not a good idea since there is no migration in hardware but it will be helpful in production since we are migrating the production system).
    Option 3: Performing DBUA assistant in development and sapinst method in production.(helpful in disaster recovery)
    Could you please suggest on the same?
    My query is that.
    If i am performing oracle export from 8.1.7.4 and if i am import the same in oracle 10g using the sapinst tool. Will this work? or it will create a problem in table level. I am looking for answers for this Question. Kindly explain me on this.
    Regards

    - Red Hat and Oracle Enterprise Linux are officially supported by Oracle to be used under Oracle products;
    - CentOS is NOT officially supported
    - the newer Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) includes an 'oracle-validate' rpm to reduce configuration guessing
    Each Distro has it's purpose. I use SUSE and OpenSUSE for my office. And for general servers I use RedHat (when I need commercial support) and CentOS. I fully support CentOS and the CentOS community effort.
    However, for the past year I have ONLY used Oracle Enteprise Linux under Oracle product. It is free, it is officially supported, if I need commercial support I can get it, and it has the Oracle Validated RPM to minimize my config effort. http://edelivery.oracle.com
    So, as compared to the other respondent - I encourage using OEL and NOT CentOS.

  • How to upgrdae Oracle Cluster on Red Hat Linux 3 to Red hat Linux 4 AS U 7

    We need to upgrade our Clustered (2 Nodes) Oracle Database environment on Linux environment to Red Hat 4 AS 7. The current OS version is Red Hat 3 update 6. We use EMC SAN Storage as shared storage (OCFS and Raw Devices) for our 9i and 10g databases
    Question: We will install (on local disks) Red Hat 4 AS Update 7 and then install ocfs and ASMlib RPMs. Is there any risk of loosing the existing (on Red Hat 3 update 6) ocfs file systems and raw devices (from EMC SAN Storgae) after we do fresh install of OS and ocfs and ASMlib RPMs? How can we keep the shared storage data quickly available (without restore from the backup) to the system after installing Red Hat 4 AS Update 7 and mentioned RPMs?

    Ched

    Did you carefully go through all pre-req steps for install?
    Oracle needs some "compatibility libraries" as well (compat-lib*). Here are packages for AS 10g, most or all of which apply to Database too.
    Checking operating system packages: gcc-3.2.3-20,compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.122,compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.122,compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.122,compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122,setarch-1.3-1,pdksh-5.2.14,sysstat-4.0.7,gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-34.1,libstdc++-3.2.3,compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122,compat-glibc-7.x-2.2.4.32.5
    When required packages are in place, there's another error lurking, related to __libc_wait symbol.
    runInstaller "boots" OUI, which includes running a JRE from tmp. This JRE (build 02) is broken, but you can setup to run another one via oraparam.ini and JRE_LOCATION. Download build 10 from Sun (google "jre 1.3.1 download").

    thank you.

    That is Oracle Database 10g R2, it looks like R1 is not supported.This is the point of mis understanding. I am was talking about x86 and you about x86_64. :-)
    Also check this out for further confirmation...

    I have already turned off the firewall on my OS and it has made no difference. Is it Oracles fault in that they have not maintained this page on their website? Or is it a problem with the way my computer is set?

    If you were able to reach to the end of the installation, then make sure both your database and listener are up and running. OracleXE requires the database to be registered against the listener to have the http access enabled.
    From an OS prompt, ensure your environment variables are properly set,
    ORACLE_HOME=pathToYourOracleHome
    ORACLE_SID=XE #verify the instance name, xe or XE, it is case sensitive
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
    Then issue this command to verify the listener is up and running:
    lsnrctl status
    There you should see the http port at 8080 and the XE instance registered against the listener.
    And verify the database is working:
    sqlplus / as sysdba
    SQL> select status from v$instance
    You should see OPEN as the status.
    Please post the output of the above commands.

  • Networking error (ORA-28547) with 10g on Red Hat Linux

    Hello everybody
    I'm having the following error when trying to set up a 10g database on a Red Hat machine. I can start the listener correctly, but then the Enterprise Manager shows the following error in the 'Agent Connection to Instance' section:
    ORA-28547: connection to server failed, probable Oracle Net admin error (DBD ERROR: OCISessionBegin)
    When I try to access using SQL*Plus, I get the same error. I don't know what can be wrong: the listener starts correctly, tnsping gives OK, both using the server name and the SID, and the config. files seem to be correct. Anyone has a clue?
    Thanks in advance for your answers.
    Just in case, here are (the relevant parts of) mi config. files:
    listener.ora:
    SID_LIST_LISTENER =
    (SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
    (PROGRAM = extproc)
    (SID_NAME = oradb10g)

    LISTENER =

    (DESCRIPTION =

    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
    tnsnames.ora:
