Can't install 10g on Linux

Hi,
We currently have setup 10g for testing on Windows quite happily, we have a customer who is going to deploy our product on Linux so I am in the process of setting up Linux test machine with a test Oracle database.
Having not read any docs, I first tried this on Fedora Core 2, I took note of the error and have since installed a trial of SuSE Server 9.
I still get the following error:
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-2.1, untidelinux-1.0 or redhat-3
Failed <<<<<<<<<<<<<<
I have SLES 9 which the docs say is fine, any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Phil Maskell

Hi,
This is the version I'm using, does this error also come from components of Linux not being correct or just the version of Linux?
I am new to Linux and setting this up for testing is quite daunting (might use mysql that is bundled).

Can't install Oracle_cal on linux EL5

Hey everyone, I am having some trouble installing oracle cal on linux EL5. I keep getting the following error when trying to invoke the installer. Does anyone know a solution?:

It's probably not supported on RHEL5/Centos5/etc., but...
You can get the installer to function using the following steps:
- extract the cal_linux_*.tar.gz, and cd into the OracleCalendar_inst directory
In there is the actual installer, cal_linux.
- the cal_linux is shell script wrapped around some binary blobs. The installer's
problem is that Oracle is setting the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 environment
variable, which is a mistake on RHEL5. You need to make it not set that variable,
but you need to do so in a way that the size of the shell script does not change at all,
and none of the binary blobs are impacted.
- the approach I took was
mv cal_linux cal_linux.BAK
sed -e 's/LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5/LD_ASSUME_KERNEL= /g' < cal_linux.BAK > cal_linux
chmod a+rx cal_linux
cal_linux -i gui
Note: you must have exactly 5 spaces in the substitution part of the sed command, because you're replacing 5 characters (2.2.5), and the size of the shell script must not change.
If you do that, the installer should run (one warning from awk still) and you should be able to install the product.

Adobe does not support Digital Editions on Linux any more, see this page for the list of platforms that they do support : Tech specs | Adobe Digital Editions Home
Over at WineHQ they seem to have versions of Adobe Digital Editions that you might be able to get to run on Linux Mint (I have not tried this myself though) : WineHQ - Adobe Digital Editions

I have brought one Toshiba Satellite U400 laptop.
As you know nowadays whole the laptops which is coming by Windows Vista.

Instaling 10g on Linux

Hi all.
I downloaded the personal edition of the new 10g database for Linux, and has had all sorts of problems.
First the download is compressed in cpio-format, witch is largely unknown, and not supported by Konqueror/Ark. I found the utility on the net and installed it.
Then, when I started the installation it came out and complained about my version of Linux, from Suse. It was not stated anywhere that the DB is only able to install on Red Hat / Mandrake.
I have spend 2 days to try to install this product, and now I find out that it is not possible at all. There should be RPM's available for all distros.
Allan Cloos

Suggest you refer to http://www.puschitz.com for general installation of Oracle products on Linux, especially on trhe Red Hat series.
If it's not listed on Werner's site, it probably will be subject to problems and issues.
To the original poster - I am truly surpised that you could not find cpio for your distribution - cpio has been a basic utility for unix and linux since the 70s.

How can I install InDesign under Linux?

Hello,
Because Microsoft stopped service for Windows XP, I changed the OS to Linux (currently Ubuntu to ease the change). A lot of software have alternatives under Linux, but I want to work with InDesign (currently CS6) furthermore. Is there a special (new) software version available directly from Adobe (I found only Win and Mac versions). Or is a script for Wine (or other emulator software) available? Thanks for any help or comment.
Micha

adobe makes no linux version of any of its software. you'll need to use a front-end like wine, WineHQ - Adobe InDesign

If I already have APEX installed can I install 10g Standard Edition too?

can I have both running on the same machine?

If you are referring to Oracle XE database as opposed to APEX then the answer is yes. Just be sure to assign the Oracle Standard Edition to a different "Oracle Home".
