Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8

Hey,
Help needed on installation of Oracle 9i EE on Sun Solaris 8. The problem I met was: we followed the installation guide from the documentation. And we selected the choice "install software only". After it was done successfully, we run Database Configuration Assistant utility to create a database instance. But finally it always tried to create the instance at the root directory ( / ) which doesn't have enough space and then failed. The case was that we have set the enviroment parameters: $ORACLE_BASE = /export/mydata, $ORACLE_HOME = /export/apps/oracle9i. That means it should be installed at /export/mydata, but it didn't. Any help or advice are welcome. Thanks.

I have downloaded Oracle 11G R2 version from Windows and extracted it in Windows and copied it into DVD after extraction in two folders. Now I am mounting that DVD in Solaris 10 installed in my VMware . I made a new directory named as 'installation ' under /export/home/oracle and copied the folders from DVD to 'installation' folder. Now I am entering installation folder and try to do ./runInstaller as 'oracle ' user and getting the error mentioned before.

Please help me with this problem.
Thank you

It is because of UNIX shell. I also faced this error during installation.
First check your shell by the following command.
$ echo $SHELL
Then select the below.
For csh shell
$ setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
For sh,ksh and bash
$ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
After you do this check the value of DISPLAY variable.
$ echo $DISPLAY
If the DISPLAY variable is set then run ./runInstaller.
One advice: Keep a complete log of your terminal session. This will help you in future :)

Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 5.10/64 bit version.Is that supported ?

I want to install Oracle 9i RAC on Sun Solaris 10 64 bit. Is that officially supported ?
I dont this combination on metalink certify matrix

I know we dont get support from oracle.But, you initially mentioned that you couldn't find the required information on metalink, therefore I provided that information, which I thought you were looking for.
Is anybody still using this combination ? Does it work ? yes, we are using it and it has been working fine for over 4 years...of course we patched it to the latest - 9.2.0.8 to be on the supported release/patch.

Hardware system specifications for 11i installation on Sun Solaris

Please advise the hardware system requirements like CPU(s), CPU speed advised, disk space, memory, etc for proper performance of 11i on a Sun Solaris machine.

YOU HAVE TO SET THE UNIX VARIBLE DISPLAY=hostname:0.0; export DISPLAY
and then execute "xhosts +" before starting the Rapidwiz.

Please help me, how can I install sun solaris 9 x86 on my HP E-Vectra PC.
Kalpesh Mehta

I had similar problems several months ago. I suspect this happens when host pc does not have floppy drive(or bios somehow misreports it) as it was in my case. Solaris 8 seems to work fine in the same environment, so I keep using it for now. Possible workaround might be to use DCA from Solaris 8: Installation of Sol9 started just fine after I entered Sol8 DCA and asked it to boot from Sol9 CD.
Hope this problem will be fixed in subsequent Sol9 releases.

How to restore a Oracle 9i Backup from Sun Solaris to Linux

Dear all,
I am using Oracle 9.0.1.
I make a Hot Backup which made by Rman in the Sun Solaris
and now, I want to restore this backup to the Linux machine.
But in the Linux machine,
the database name & path is different from that in Sun Solaris.
Does Oracle backup can restore across different platforms?
Does anyone know how to do write ryman statement to do this?
Thank for your kindly help.
Wilson

You cant resore backup in different platform.

Oracle 11g R2 for Sun Solaris???

When will be release the version for Sun Solaris?
Is there any way to check the release date for each Oracle version? (e.g. 10.2, 11.1, etc)
Thanks,
Shum

Well if you check at this link http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/index.html
You will see that 11.1.07 is for Windows ServerActually, you might note that it is for Windows Server *2008*. OS qualifiers are fairly important. Sentences may sort of trail off to noth
What you download from the freely available site,and what is the current version with patches applied is often a different thing.
The freely available 'for learning and prototyping' downloads (from the site you mention) are NOT updated to a new patch level. (If necessary, they may be revised to fix bugs that stop them for being installed, but they keep the same point level.)
If a version of the OS is released after the s/w has been made available, and there are problems installing or using that combination, Oracle MAY decide to fix, apply patch set and and make available the s/w for that specific OS.
And if you are waiting for 11.2 because you don't have Support and can't get 11.1.0.7 patch, then I express concern for your management's approach. Missing CPUs and other patches is not a good idea for production.

Siebel 8 installation on Sun Solaris 10 - Siebel server failed

Hi Expert,
I am currently installing Siebel 8.0.0.0 on Sun Solaris 10.
I had successfully configured a New Gateway Name Server, a New Enterpise in a Gateway Name Server and a New Siebel Web Server Extension Logical Profile.
Then, I tried to configure a Siebel Server, however the result of that is Execution Failed and popup the following error message:
Setup.product.install, Utility, err, unable to launch: "ksh export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/siebel/siebelv8/siebsrvr/lib;PATH=${PATH}:.;/var/tmp/isjAAAC8aGVc/bin/java -Dtemp.dir=/var/tmp -cp /siebel/siebelv8/siebsrvr/bin/setup.jar run -args LANG=ENU REPEAT=FALSE MODE=LIVE MODEL_FILE=/siebel/siebelv8/siebsrvr/admin/siebel_server_sia.scm" error code: "255"(SBL-STJ-00152)
I have tried to uninstall Siebel and re-install Siebel couple of times. I got the above same error all the time.
Searching on supportWeb, I don't find much information regarding "error code: "255"(SBL-STJ-00152)"
Does anyone know what does "error code: "255"" mean?
Does anyone have any ideas on how to resolve it?
Appreciate all your help.
Thanks in advance!!

No....I don't find any port conflict.
However, in the log.txt I saw the following error at the beginning of the log:

Not sure if that is a problem but the installation went fine.
Just when I tried to configure Siebel Server, I got the execution failed with the error that I mentioned in my first posting.

Dropping oracle 8i database on sun solaris platform

greetings
i have an oracle 8.1.7 database sitting on a sun solaris 8 server that i have to drop. can anyone give me the steps involved?

On unix database don't depend on any kind of OS service. It don't register it self in registry. So droping the database on any UNIX flaver is very simple, just delete all the database files, Redolog files,control file,spfile,password file
You can find the datafiles dba_data_files, v$datafile
Redolog v$logfiles
controlfiles v$controlfiles

MUT-03010 during installation on SUN solaris

Thanks for your help.
Yoav Zilberman

Hi Yoav,
SQL1390C The environment variable DB2INSTANCE is not defined or is invalid.
please check your environment settings.
The SAP processes will find the DB2 CLI libraries either through
(1) >= 7.00 kernel only
/usr/sap/<SID>/global/db6/                ( default path for DB2 CLI driver )
(2)
DB2INSTANCE = db2<dbsid>            ( DB2 runtime client )
In this case the instance directory ~$DB2INSTANCE/sqllib needs to exist .
(3) >= 7.00 kernel only
DB2_CLI_DRIVER_INSTALL_PATH    ( CLI driver path )
If none of those can be applied. The libraries may be found using the LD_LIBRARY_PATH .
In this case the libraries can be loaded but the message files can not be found and every SQL error results in SQL10007N .
Regards
               Frank

DO I need SFRAC for Oracle 10g RAC on Sun Solaris

My platform is SUN Solaris 10 64 bit on v490 server. On the backend side, we are using EMC CX500 storage. We will use Veritas File system and Veritas CFS.
I would like to ask, Do I must need SFRAC to configure Oracle 10g RAC or Can I just use only Oracle CRS. I do not want to use ASM.
Please advise
Thanks,
Sam..

The VCFS usually requires a Veritas Cluster, thus you would have to use the product combination that is bundled as SFRAC as mentioned before. Metalink in addition says:
10 10gR2 64-bit Veritas Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC 5.0 Certified
There is one exception to this rule: Linux.
Veritas and Oracle support a standalone version of the Veritas Cluster Files System (and only this component) on Linux. This does not hold true for Solaris.
Concluding, if you want to use the VCFS you would need to get a VCS, which then basically means using SFRAC.
However, in this case, as mentioned before, you would not need ASM.

Oracle 10gR2 installation fails in Solaris 10

Hi All,
I am facing the following problem in Solaris 10 SPARC 64 bit machine.
1.     Downloaded Oracle 10g R2 installable from oracle
2.     Created user oracle and group dba and modified project settings and permissions as per quick installation guide
3.     Installation of software is successful. But dbca fails with following error message.
ORA-19624: operation failed, retry possible

ORA-27091: unable to queue I/O
ORA-27067: size of I/O buffer is invalid
4.     I also tried creating scripts using dbca and running it manually. It fails with following error message in trace file
Corrupt block 1 found during reading backup piece, file=/ora10gr2/ora10gr2/product/10.2.0/Db_1/assistants/dbca/templates/Seed_

It is Solaris 10 (Solaris 10 11/06 s10s_u3wos_10 SPARC) machine with patch level 125100-05 .
I know this question has to be posted in Oracle forums. But I could not see others facing this issue in oracle forums. If anybody has faced this issue please let me know.
Thanks!
