10g Forms and Reports Only

Question

I am trying to use the Forms and Report Services only install on a RedHat AS3 server. I have been through all of the pre-configuration for Application server and feel that all the requirements have been met.
When I run the "runInstaller" program I receive an error
": bad interpreter: No such file or directory"
I would assume that this was reference to the script not finding /bin/sh which is really redirected to /bin/bash.
I created a test script:
#!/bin/sh
if [ -f /bin/sh ] ; then
echo "We Have Shell"
fi
exit
I ran this using the same oracle user at the same prompt and it worked. So this leads me to believe that the bash interpreter is working correctly.
Any thoughts on what the problem is? Do I have to install a piece of the Application Server first in order to install the Forms and Reports module?

Answer 1

Can you check if the 'runInstaller' is a dos format file (with CR LF)?
You can also try 'sh runInstaller' and see if that works.
