8.5.1 install on Mandrake 7.0 (RH 6.1 plus)

I managed to get 8.1.5 installed on a machine with 64 MB ram and Mandrake 7.0, a RedHat 6.1 derivative (2.2.14) and I thought I'd share what things I had to do.
Basically, I used jre116_v5, and ran the runIns.sh script in install/linux instead of the runInstaller script, as many have suggested before. Even with the suggestions that many have suggested, the installer would bail out at random along the install process. Thinking this might be an issue with the limited memory available (even with 256 MB swap), I changed some of the memeory parameters in the runIns.sh script. I reduced the thread stack sizes from 4mb to 3mb, and reduced the initial and max stack sizes as well. The modified jre options are as follows:
-ss3m -oss3m -ms28m -mx56m
Even with the reductions, the jre took up 140MB according to top, more than twice physical ram. However, the install completed slowly but surely.
I don't know if this was just coincidence or if reducing the memory helped, but the install completed successfully.
I hope this might help someone.

Thansk A LOT! I had tried for almost a week to get that fucking install to work. I don't know why it works, but it has nothing to do with actual RAM, as I have 384 MB and 600 MB swap ...

  • I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing

    I installed Firefox 4 and the Orange App button plus the reload and stop are not showing.

    You see the orange (on Linux gray) Firefox button if the Menu Bar is hidden, so you need to hide the Menu bar to get the new appearance.<br />
    If you need to access the hidden Menu bar then press F10 or hold down the Alt key to make the Menu Bar appear temporarily.<br />
    You can also place the Tab Bar on top.
    * View > Toolbars : [ ] Menu Bar
    * View > Toolbars : [X] Tabs on Top
    Firefox 4 uses a combined Stop/Reload/Go button that is positioned at the right end of the location bar.<br />
    During the page load process it shows as a Stop button and after the loading has finished the button is changed to a Reload button.<br />
    If you type in the location bar then that button becomes a Go button.<br />
    You can middle-click that Reload button to duplicate the current tab to a new tab.
    To move the Stop and Reload buttons to their position to the left of the location bar you can use these steps:
    * Open the "View > Toolbars > Customize" window to move the Stop and Reload button out of the location bar.
    * Drag the Reload and Stop buttons to their previous position to the left of the location bar.
    * Set the order to "Reload - Stop" to get a combined "Reload/Stop" button.
    * Set the order to "Stop - Reload" or separate them otherwise to get two distinct buttons.

  • Oracle Install on Mandrake Linux 9.1 (Dell Laptop 600)

    I have a full install of Oracle 10G running on a Dell Laptop using Mandrake Linux 9.1:
    First I did an install of the OS, I built the swap file to be 2GIGs, the /oracle partition as 5GIGS and the /home partition as 25GIGS.
    I made sure to choose the Development packages and the Office packages, I did not choose any of the WEB and other stuff.
    As root, edit the file /etc/sysctl.conf. Add the following lines to the end of the file:
    kernel.shmall = 2097152
    kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
    kernel.shmmni = 4096
    kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
    fs.file-max = 65536
    net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
    As root, issue the following commands at a terminal:
    groupadd oinstall
    groupadd dba
    useradd –g oinstall –G dba oracle
    passwd oracle <supply new password>
    You then need to set up the new user’s environment variables. Edit the file /home/oracle/.bashrc and add the following between the “# User specific aliases and functions” and the “# Source global definitions” lines. In Mandrake Linux all I did was edit the /etc/profile file and add the below at the end. This way all users get the added. Works like a charm.
    ORACLE_SID=lx10g
    ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
    ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/10g
    PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH:.
    export ORACLE_SID ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME PATH
    You can choose what you like for the ORACLE_SID: it represents what you will eventually call your database.
    Make install directories, In my case, for example, I did this:
    mkdir /oracle
    mkdir /oracle/10g
    chown -R oracle:oinstall /oracle
    First when you try to run the Universal Installer do the following:
    ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs (this gets you by the error on the OS)
    Then just follow the normal screens and at the end you should have a complete system. There is a bug in the installer and you will need to re-run the ./runInstaller and selct just the ISQLPlus* and it will then only re-install this package. It seems it misses it during the initial install. I also suggest downloading the Compaign CD and installing the APACHE and HTMDB using the same as above when running the ./runInstaller as everything else is already setup.

    Remember that the OS has to be certified to install
    Oracle sucessfully.

  • OUI Hangs during Oracle 8i install on Mandrake 7.1

    I have gone through all of the instructions I have found on this forum for installing 8i on Linux. I have downloaded and installed the JRE, created the oracle user, added the necessary lines to my .bash_profile, etc.
    When I change to the /install/linux directory on my 8i installation cd and try to run ./runInstaller, the initial OUI welcome screen comes up. When I click on the "next" button, nothing happens, and I can't proceed. Has anyone out there experienced this? Any suggestions?

  • Cannot connect to Oracle XE - install on Mandrake 2005

    Hi!
    Downloaded Oracle XE and attepmted an install on my home computer running Mandrake 2005. At first it complained about missing libaio so I downloaded and installed latest Fedora rpm. Without problems. Then it happily installed, although at one moment it complained the machine does not meet minimum requirements (only 217Mb memory, hmm why I thought I have 256?). It installed otherwise fine. I run configuration scripts - default ports, system password, start at boot - yes. So far so good.
    It created a shortcut for "Getting Started" page on my desktop, but would not make any menu items. OK, after all its not a supported distro. So I pointed Firefox at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex and got connection refused.
    Checked. Process oracle-xe is running. I can start and stop it. Listener is up and listening. There is no firewall whatsoever - we're sitting on a dialup here. Tried to connect as root, no candy. Ahh, yes, I should mention that even if memory is lacking there is about 800 megs of swap and ample diskspace too, so other hardware req's should be OK. So everything is almost like it should. Except that I cannot connect. So can you tell me what else to check and what to try?
    Wahur, database newb

    Oracle XE has it's own forum - to register and discuss XE problems with XE experts use URL http://www.oracle.com/technology/xe/registration
    Once you have registered, you can sign in to the forums and voila - the link to the XE forum is there. But you do have to sign in.

  • Who has a Oracle8i successful install on Mandrake 8.0?

    Wonder who has a successful install of Oracle8i on Mandrake 8.0. After many attempts, I got through 90% of it with the following constraints:
    1. Need to install glibc2.2.2 patch.
    2. Need to run intaller in GENOME. It does not work in KDE.
    3. But I still could not get through init database as there is an identical database ID hidden somewhere in the system from previous install that could not be removed.

  • J2ee install problem - Mandrake 10

    Hi All!
    I downloaded j2ee v1.4 and during instalation proccess I can see on my console that some files are extracting, then some temporary files are deleting (normal things) but after that the install programme freezes. Any suggestion???
    Please help me!
    Thanks in advance....
    Mark
    P.S. I'm sorry for my spelling :-)

    It seems that you are having some issues with self-extracting executable since it is actually supposed to extract the files and then start installation wizard. Please note that Mandrake 10 is not officially supported Linux distribution and as such was not tested, but you should still be able to install and run the server.
    As installation workaround you can try this: move the distribution .bin file into some temporary directory and extract files manually using unzip command:
    unzip <distribution_bin_file_name>
    Then, set execute permissions on JRE files which came with the distribution:
    chmod 755 package/jre/bin/*
    And, start the installation wizard:
    package/jre/bin/java -cp .:package/PackageFormat.jar -Xmx256m appserv
    This should start the installation wizard, just follow provided instructions. Please post here if you encounter any errors during the installation.

  • How can i create work directory for Tomcat4 which is installed on Mandrake

    Hello Everybody,
    I installed Tomcat4 with the help of JPackage on Madrake Linux. It is working fine. But Unfortunatly my work folder in tomcat4 is deleted. I restarted my Tomcat, But the work folder not created. my application is not working. I need help from u people. Is there any other options to create work folder. I installed the tomcat4 from jpackage.
    Thanks in advance, Naveen Kumar Madugula

    4) Advanced Configuration - Multiple Tomcat 4 Instances
    In many circumstances, it is desirable to have a single copy of a Tomcat 4
    binary distribution shared among multiple users on the same server. To make
    this possible, you must configure a CATALINA_BASE environment variable (in
    addition to CATALINA_HOME as described above) that points to a directory
    that is unique to your instance.
    When you do this, Tomcat 4 will calculate all relative references for files in
    the following directories based on the value for CATALINA_BASE instead of
    CATALINA_HOME:
    * conf - Server configuration files (including server.xml)
    * logs - Log and output files
    * shared - For classes and resources that must be shared across all web
    applications
    * webapps - Automatically loaded web applications
    * work - Temporary working directories for web applications
    * temp - Directory used by the JVM for temporary files (java.io.tmpdir)
    If you do not set CATALINA_BASE to an explicit value, it will be initialized
    to the same value as is set for CATALINA_HOME (which means that the same
    directory is used for all relative path resolutions).

  • Quicktime for Windows -- on Vista -- opens a .mov movie once, then won't open the move and Quicktime won't even open itself.  I've installed the latest version, and upgraded it to Plus as well.

    I am having trouble opening .mov videos with Quicktime on my PC with Vista.  I installed the latest version of Quicktime for Windows (V.7.7), and upgraded it to Pro.  It will open a .mov file once, then after that it will not open any .mov file and in fact, when I try to open the Quicktime player it will not open itself.  If I switch users to Admin, it all works fine, but when I go back to my regular role (where all of my preferences and programs are there for me to use), the same thing happens.  An .mov file will open once, then never again, and the Quicktime player seems to be disabled.
    I've tried different .mov files, so it's not a corrupt file that's the problem.  And, in the past (a couple of Quicktime versions ago, I guess), all of this worked just fine.
    Any helpful suggestions would be appreciated!

    I have the exact same problem. They play on my Mac under Snow Leopard. Transfer to Vista gets a window with black and white and some other noise. No sound either.

  • After installing Cooliris and moving icon from Tab Mix Plus Cooliris will not "launch" ; how can I rectify this problem?

    On another computer was causing FF to run sporadic , I believe. I have now installed on a Mac but icon is in b&w and will not launch when clicked.

    If it's slow on startup it would be extensions loading or LaunchDaemons starting up. 
    You should have a look in:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    /Library/Extensions
    You can count out anything in your home folder and it shouldn't put anything in /System as that's reserved for Apple.
