Oracle 9i R2 Installation on RH Linux 7.3 -- Have a few questions.

Hello,
I am at the end of the Oracle 9i R2 installation and have a few questions.
1) The "Agent Configuration Assistant" keeps failing. I get the following message.
Parameters "orahome" = /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
Parameters "nodeinfo" = NODE_VALUE
Agent Service Failed
What does this mean and how can I complete Agent Configuration Assistant install?
2) I completed the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant successfully and created passwords for sys and sysoper (not sure if these were the exact users). Note I did not modify any other users or unlock them.
How do I log into the sqlplus prompt, what users should I use and how can I create new users and databases?
Thanks for your help in advance.
Regards,
Chris Barone

(1) You can probably just ignore the Agent Configuration (are you using the Agent to collect data?)
(2) sqlplus '/ as sysdba' will log you into the SQL*Plus prompt.

Any ideas where to obtain these required Linux packages for CentOS 5.5?
Thanks!

Ben,
CentOS is not certified as a database/application tier node.
You can find the packages from the Media Pack (Download it from e-Delivery website), or just search Google (below is an example):
Download compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3-61.x86_64

A few questions re: installing 10g on a virtual linux machine

I am in the process of building up a virtual linux box on my XP laptop and have a few questions regarding the networking setup. Purpose is to have a sandbox *nix setup at my fingertips.
Here's what I have so far:
Dell Latitude laptop running Win XP. This is a DHCP machine.
Installed VMWare Player
Created virtual machine with OEL 4.8, with NAT network config
So far, so good. Next step is to install 10.2.0.4 EE on the virtual Linux machine. When installing 10.2.0.4 directly on the XP system, of course I had to install a loopback adapter to provide a fixed IP address for Oracle, all well documented in the installation guide. While it is my understanding that the loopback adapter, as installed and configured on Windows, is primarily a Windows issue, I would expect something of the same fundamental under Linux insomuch as it is still a dhcp machine. However, when checking the relevant installation guide, the section on networking considerations and DHCP simply gave a two-paragraph discussion of what DHCP was. I found no discussion on how to deal with it in a *nix environment.
This particular vmware setup gives me a choice of 3 network configs - Bridged , NAT, or host-only (private vitrual net shared only with the host) I am currently configured to use NAT because I need outside connectivity (to yum server, etc) but do not want an additional device (ip address) on the real network. I'm guessing I could use host-only most of the time and when I need to access the internet, shut down the db and switch back to NAT.
This is all new territory for me, so I guess I'm looking at some 'best practices' advice as much as anything.

Ed,
I would encourage going for OEL 5u2 or 5u3 and including the oracle-validated package. It makes sure you have all the prerequisites for 10gR2 and makes life much easier.
I set up dozens of these machines for Oracle U classes. What I started with originally is 2 virtual NIC - a NAT and a Bridged. The Bridged allowed me to access the outside world at any time and was assigned using DHCP from the local network. The NAT I'd configure manually as a static IP, and I used it primarily to provide a second 'virtual network' so the classroom machines could communicate with each other.
In my latest iteration, I've dropped back to a single Bridged NIC based on DHCP. For Oracle install purposes, I
- pick a hostname (myhost.oraclass.com)
- switch to static IP (I've scripted it - edits /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 and /etc/syscfg/network : hostname) but using the network GUI tool is ok as well
- I choose the static to macth the DHCP address assigned
- inject a single line into the /etc/hosts with the new static address, the hostname, and a hostname that I want to publish
192.168.4.21 myhost.oraclass.com orahost student21.oraclass.com student21
- set a global env variable (/etc/profile.d/oraprofile.sh (export HOSTNAME=myhost.oraclass.com)
and after installing Oracle, I switch back to DHCP. Then if I want to travel, I can easily switch the 'static' address as often as I want (also scripted) to match the IP addr the 'host DHCP' provides.
I've used the NAT. It hands out a DHCP address and usually it works for me (and Oracle) simply by making it static (as above) and letting VMWare container handle it. But every once in a while it seems to 'jam up' and I'd need to fight with it. So I've converted to bridged .. with the help of some scripts I've written.

A few questions about the installation

Hi,
Our block of flats has just been upgraded to Infinity - I think it's likely to be FTTP as we have a fibre optic 'pullback' cable running around each floor outside the flats.
We have not yet been able to order the service but I have a few questions anyway. Apologies for the lengthy nature but my partner and I are trying to explore all options with regards to installation.
As it's likely FTTP do we need to have the modem in the same place as the existing master socket. Reading this it seems that we could have the modem located in a different place and have some Cat5e/Cat6 cables run prior to installation to link the modem to the router (which would remain near the master socket). Is that something that's feasible?
If we have to route the fibre cable through to the lounge, what lengths will the engineer go to in order to aid a discrete run? Can they do things like routing through drywall voids where accessible without structural work beyond drilling a hole? Ideally we would need to drill some holes anyway, are they happy doing more than just the one to bring the cable into the flat?
If the engineer is not able to be overtly flexible, can additional cabling be left in a loop with a view to us conducting future work, things like burying the cable into the drywall? Can the cable even be moved once it's connected to the modem? Does moving the modem cost?
Hopefully someone will be able to advise. It's been a long battle to get the infrastructure put into place and I'm looking forward to getting access to Infinity as soon as possible
Thank you for any replies

My understanding is that you don't even need a phone line for fibre therefore you don't need a master socket. That being the case, if you do have a phone line then master socket does not need to be anywhere near the fibre modem. You will find that usually you will have to have a phone line installed as part of the package.
EDIT: You should run Ethernet cable from where the modem will be placed to where you want the homehub/router sited.

Oracle 8i Installation on Redhat Linux AS 3.0

Hi guys,
I am just doing some home work before installation of Oracle 8i Enterprise server on Redhat Linux AS 3.0. Before I started my work on this, I planned to install 8i on AIX 5L, which was a bad idea. Because 8i being a 32bit db and 5L being 64bit kernel, and also this combination is not supported. But with little tweeking and installing few patches, things should work.
Anyway, I would like to know, if any of you have installed 8i on RH Linux AS 3.0, and do any of you think I need to worry about 32 & 64 bit? I am installing this combination on Compaq PL 6500 server, will there be any problem, because PL 6500 is 32 bit processor? Please pass on any information which can help me in a proper installtion, Thanks in Advance

Joel,
I am new to this company. This is my first year here, from last one and half year my company was trying to migrate from Informix to Oracle. After I joined I came to know that my predecessor started the project on 8i and left the project half way thru. Then I took over the project and completed the migration from Informix to Oracle. My company spent awful lot of money on this project due to lack technical know how and mislead by the technology staff who has no knowledge of oracle or UNIX (they are bunch of old NCR and Cobol guys here). So bottom line is if I submit a proposal to my boss of upgrading from 8i to 9i or 10g, which I will, probably won't be happy to see. But on the other hand we will loose support and left with no choice, I can only say that I am sorry for them.
Anyway, this is just a part of disorganized IT shop we have here, it needs a major facelift, and I am just pushing one at a time. Thanks for your reply, I really appreciate.

Installation of Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4

dear all
I have tried to Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4 but it gives an error "Error in invoking target make file .."
I tried using retries it failed each time to prorceed.
I checked for my binutils ( binutils-2.14.90.0.4-26 ) but mine are higher than binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm required ..
do i need to down grade my binutils for 8.1.7
abhi

Hi Abhi!
If I remember correctly (817 is stone age) the binutils used a strange debug flag in the 2.11.90.0.8-13 (something with -z).
If this is not present in your newer version of the binutils the make will fail.
Try downgrading the binutils during the installation.
