Succes installing 9iAS R2 (release 2) on RedHat Linux 7.3

I had success installing 9iAS release 2 on RedHat Linux 7.3. I used the instructions on http://www.puschitz.com/OracleOnLinux.shtml.
At first, I tried this on RedHat 8.0. Funny thing is: installation of infrastructure failed even though I followed the instructions. Then I downloaded 7.3, followed EXACTLY the same instructions and voila, works like a charm.
Puschitz' instructions are for 9i and not for 9iAS though. Some additions:
1) One of the pre-installation steps there says to set some environment variables, one of them being the SID. It's set to 'test', but of course with standard settings the sid of the database that comes along with 9iAS has a SID of 'iasdb'.
2) Also what I did, was to downgrade the binutils package to the version provided by Oracle here: http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/oracle9i/files/binutils_readme.html. As an alternative, Puschitz says to change some makefiles. I didn't try this.
3) I then installed the infrastructure. When finished, I exited the installation and rebooted. After the reboot:
4) I changed to the /bin directory and typed (as root):
ln -s /sbin/fuser
5) Changed back to user 'oracle' and started the infrastructure with:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus
connect / as sysdba
startup
exit
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl start
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oidmon connect=iasdb start
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oidctl connect=iasdb server=oidldapd instance=1 start
$ORACLE_HOME/opmn/bin/opmnctl startall
6) Then started the installer and did the middletier installation. Rebooted.

Following your instructions i've also succesfull installation of ias9iR2 Infrastructure on Redhat7.3. Checked the database Iasdb and Enterprise Manager Website (on http://liminwang:1810), everything works fine. Hence i try to install Portal & Wireless on the same machine on a different Oracle_home (but on the same Oracle_base) according to the installation guide. The installation stuck when i've chosen the Portal and Wireless option. I get a warning that the Enterprise Manager Website Process is still running and it must be stopped to proceed the stallation. So i stopped this process by: $oracle_home/bin/emctl stop
Still i get the same warning. Stopping the database also doesn't help. Even when i deinstalled the Enterprise Manager Website component i get the same warning.
Please help!

How to install d2k release 6i on redhat linux version 7.3?

How to install d2k release 6i on redhat linux version 7.3?

have you tried using open motif 2.1.30?
the open motif version that comes with the redhat 7.3 is 2.2 and is not compatible with 6i. Once I used open motif 2.1.30 it worked fine. The environment variable setting is very similar to any other unix version. Ensure that you are also intalling the latest patch (10) for 6i (fixed lots of problems).

Problem installing Oracle Linux Release 5 Update 2 from Oracle e-Delivery

Hello
I have been trying to install Oracle Linux Release 5 Update 2 from Oracle e-Delivery so that I can install Oracle 11g express edition beta.
Here are the steps that I took and the problem that I am having:
1. I downloaded the file, unzipped the file twice, which gave me 3,042 files and 13 folders with the total size = 3.07 GB.
2. I put in the DVD and restarted my PC hoping that my PC will boot from the DVD, but instead Window started.
I reported this issue to tech support from e-Delivery, but they referred me to contact you. Please assist.
Julia

3,042 files and 13 folders with the total size = 3.07 GBWhich download .zip did you choose from edelivery? Under linux-x64 I peeked "Oracle Linux Release 5 Update 2 for x86_64 (64 Bit) - DVD" file V15099-01.zip downloaded, it has just the one .iso file. You'll need to burn that to DVD, but with burn s/w that handles ISO files.
Also keep in mind you'll need 64 bit hardware (amd/intel 64? itanium? those are different), the only *nix platform I've got handy to try it out is -x86 :(

Hello!
I also tried to install Oracle 8.1.6.1 (after giving up the 8.0.5 installation due to segmentation faults all over..), it also failed.

Oracle 816 on linux slackware 7.0

hi,
i have a problem while installing 816 on linux slackware 7.0. i have followed all the install instructions... but every time that it gets to the "Oracle Database Configuration Assistant" it just hangs. why would it do this??
when i terminate the installation and restart it, the installed products show the database as installed. i have not actually tested this (i want to use php on apache to integrate with the dbase) but it shows that the dbase is installed. i wish to do a complete 100% install without any hassles. can anyone give me some advice on how to get past the problem i am experiencing.

I've made the links as speicified but it still didn't work ! It displayed Java exception errors and then hanged up when the database was being created. May someone really tried it out himself/herself before posting any so-called "solution" !

I'm trying to install OpenSparc T1 Architecture and Performance Model. Does it need Solaris, or I can run it on linux as well. In the website it says it needs solaris.
When I try to follow the steps on the README file, it asks to download OpenSparcT1_SAM.tar.bz2, which does not exist anywhere. I thought this is just refering to the OpenSparcT1_Arch.1.5.tar.bz2 with different name. But no, it keeps refering to files that does not exists when I extracted the .tar file. Like OpenSPARCT1_SAM.cshrc
When I try to follow the steps on README.sam file, I cannot find the files refered to this document like setup_sam.sh

Problem Installing Oracle Linux 6.3 - 'Disc not found message box'

I'm trying to install Oracle linux on a old laptop. Single disk drive.
I downloaded V33412-01Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 Boot iso image for x86_64 (64 bit)
burned it as an ISO image on a CD.
Inserted the CD,started the system, cd booted and the installation started.
Skipped the verify media (I verifed it during another installation try)
selected English
selected US
When prompted for installation method, I tried selecting 'LOCAL CD/DVD' since that's where my CD is at. I get a 'Disc not found message box'.
I've also tried to select the /dev/sda1, which the installation accepted, only to fail later saying it can't find the ISO image.
I also tried putting the ISO image and unzipping the contents of the file onto a USB stick and selcting this during the install - same error.
I tried putting V33413-01 onto the USB stick and selcting that - its too big to burn on a CD, that didn't work..
Any ideas here? Though this was a easy installation but I'm scratching my head as to how to continue?

Not very clearly - for me at least.
Not sure - and not sure where to find instructions on how to do this.
It mentions that you don't need the source CDs
Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 1 V33413-01 3.1G
Oracle Linux Release 6 Update 3 source DVD 2 V33414-01 1.7G
Not sure what to do with these anyway.
Installation
To install Oracle Linux 6.3 from DVD media, follow the following steps:
1. Download the compressed binary DVD images
Download Oracle Linux 6.3 DVD from the Oracle Software Delivery Cloud.
You do not need to download source DVDs to install Oracle Linux.
2. Verify the downloaded media
Verify the downloaded file by comparing its sha1sum or md5sum with the published
sha1sum or md5sum.
3. Write the DVD image to DVD
Use your favorite cd burning software to write these images directly to DVD.
You should not simply copy the files onto the DVD. You must use a DVD burner
that can accept an ISO image as input, and which can create a bootable DVD
from it. To test if you have burned the images correctly, insert a burned
DVD and ensure that multiple files and directories are visible.
6. Insert the DVD, and boot
Insert the DVD into your system, boot from DVD, and follow the on-screen instructions
to deploy Oracle Linux!

[WORKED AROUND] Installing Arch Linux with 3.11 kernel on Vaio Pro 13

Yesterday I received my Sony Vaio Pro 13.
The WLAN card is only supported since kernel 3.11, which has been released by Linus several days ago.
The laptop has no ethernet port, ideally I'd thus use the WLAN abilities using installation.
Since there is no Arch ISO available with 3.11 yet, I was hoping to create my own, using the arch wiki guide on remastering the ISO: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Re … nstall_ISO
I was wondering whether, instead of compiling my own kernel, I could just chroot into the unpacked ISO filesystem and install the 3.11 kernel from the testing repository using pacman.
Which, as far as I could tell, was the released kernel, and not an earlier RC. Is this possible?
One other question remains: the author of this blog mentions a diff that is needed to prevent the CPU freq to be stuck at 800Mhz (http://elouisyoung.blogspot.se/2013/07/ … -with.html).
Does anyone know whether this made it to the mainline?
# UPDATE
I explored the latest kernel release and found out that the patch is not yet included in the mainline.
So I'll have to compile my own kernel. There are however still issues with the CPU freq scaling (won't scale lower than 1.6Ghz). Nasty...
# UPDATE 2
Booting + installing mainline ISO, installed testing/linux for wifi, compiled own kernel + installed besides the testing/linux kernel worked fine for me.

Cannot install Oracle Linux on HP DC 7700 series PCs

Hi,
Im trying to install Oracle Linux on DC 7700 series and installation got hang up at the point where the "PCI Probing starts"
Please do provide a remady for this !
Nuwan

1). Oracle 9i will be easily installed on these linux ?It will install easier on Oracle Linux than any other.
2). These linux distro is more or less same like other linux distros (eg: ubuntu, fedora) i means i do and install other utilities and software for other type of usages ??Since OEL is intended as an O/S for mostly servers, it may not include support for the very latest desktop / laptop hardware. It may not include consumer-type applications like MP3 players either.
3). I will not have to pay for any type of repo access or packages installation ???No, you are welcome to download, install and use OEL without any charge. You can get it from the edelivery.oracle.com site, or access it piecemeal at the http://public-yum.oracle.com web site.
If you want support or updated RPM packages since that distribution release, only then will you need to purchase a subscription.
So, use the original distribution RPM packages for free (edelivery or public-yum.oracle.com), only need paid subscription for updated RPM's or support.
4). I will be install other locally downloaded softwares ( .rpm, .sh. .bin) files like netbeans, amrok wiht avi and mp3 capabilities for playing video tutorials, open office, acrobat reader, flash, burning software, gimp, matlab and saas ??????In general, yes, you can install software intended for Red Hat Enterprise Linux or Oracle Enterprise Linux.
Check out the EPEL project (Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux) at http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/EPEL for an additional repository which may already have the extra software you are looking for.

I wander is it on an Xeon based Blade possible to install an linux/oracle

I wander is it on an Xeon 6C X5670 95W 2.93GHz/1333MHz/12MB based Blade possible to install an linux/oracle ECC server.
Or is Xeon only for windows?
Thank you in advance

Hello Jan,
All supported platforms for IBM hardware can be found at the location SAP on Linux and this points to SAP note 171380.
You can contact IBM for older Blade / xSeries/ Netfinity models not listed under the above URL as mentioned to confirm if supported for your planned OS install.
Information about supported combinations and install procedure can be found at the following sources:
SAP on Linux -> Supported Linux kernels & Supported Linux distributions.
SAP note 407314 - Released operating systems SAP R/3 kernel 6.x ORACLE, this assumes you will be installing with Linux.
SAP note 171356 - SAP software on Linux: Essential information
SAP note 722273 - Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3/4: Installation and upgrade
I hope this information helps.
All the best,
Cristiano
