Hi there!
The first thing you should do if you get ANY (almost) error when
installing Oracle Server in RedHat Linux v6,0 is to read this
document carefully: http://jordan.fortwayne.com/oracle/
After hours of struggle it finally worked for me :-)))))
Only two things to add here:
1) If you want to be able to connect to the Linux server
(telnet) and running utilities like sqlplus locally on the
server, you should copy the ".profile" file to the users home
directory, add the user to the group "dba" AND make sure that
the $ORACLE_HOME directory has execute permissions for members
of the "dba" group (mine had default ONLY permission for the
owner to execute).
2) The file "listener.ora" was (for some reason) written
with "oracle_sid" where it really should say the real SID name
that is in my case "ORCL".
I just can't thank the guy who wrote the step-by-step
Installation guide for Oracle on RedHat Linux enough... THANK
YOU!

How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster

Dear all:
please advice How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster service ..
thanks ,,

Without RAC, you can only have one instance manage the database. One instance = one set of processes communicating via IPC.
Unless you know of a way to have processes use memory-based IPC across nodes, you need to pick a node and install & run the database software on that node.

Can´t install cd recorder in linux... help please, newbie

hi,
is there any problem with via chipsets and cd recorders in linux??
I´ve been trying to install a linux distro in my pc ( see end of post for specs), but i haven´t succeded in installing my cd recorder. I´ve tryed RedHat 8.0 and Mandrake 9.0. In both of them i can´t boot if i have the cd recorder connected... it crashes when detecting the drive. I know the recorder works, i've got friends who use it ok with linux.
Currently i have installed Mandrake 9.0 with the cd recorder disconnected. I noticed my all my friends with linux have intel machines, and they don´t have to do anything, it boots correctly and install without any problem. So i started thinking it might be a chipset support problem. I got to the viaarena page where i found a "manual" for installing cd recorder in linux. I tried to do that but i keep getting into problems... i'm new to linux and i don´t know much so that might be the real problem here :o
i'll try to explain my doubts, what i did and what problems i run into.... if someone would be nice to explain me how to solve them, in a detailed way
I followed the "readme" instructions for installing a recorder after the Mandrake 8.2 is installed ( it didn´t have any for 9.0 ). I edited the modules.conf and lilo.conf files as i should. But i did run into some doubts: the modules.conf file didn´t have any ide section like the readme said ( it had no sections at all) so i added the two lines at the bottom of the files. In lilo.conf i had to delete the append that already existed to add the hdd=ide-scsi line.
I shutdown the pc, connect the recorder and start it again. The os detects all drives but crashes again after doing checking the modules dependencies...
Did i do something wrong when editing the files?
And i didn´t quite understand all the "readme", in order to install the recorder do i also have to the "ide-scsi" to my cdrom and dvd drives, or only to my recorder??
In linux does the recorder have to be in a specific ide ( master/slave ) position in order to be installed?
and please tell me that it has nothing to do with my board and that it is just me doing something wrong..
thanks for any help, and sorry for the long post but i thought i´d better explain all
my pc specs:
AMD XP1800+
Msi KT266 pro2-ru ( Via kt266A )
256MB DDR266
Seagate 40GB ata100 7200rpm ( primary master )

You will need to add that line back in if you want it to work as a recorder once you get it to boot. CD burners in linux use scsi emulation. You may also need to add a similar line from your CD reader too as most burning software for linux uses scsi emulation for that as well.
I shutdown the pc, connect the recorder and start it again. The os detects all drives but crashes again after doing checking the modules dependencies...
I didn't have to add anything in modules.conf to get mine working. Normally if it is crashing during modules.conf it means it can't find the module. Do you know which module it is looking for? What did you add to modules.conf?
Did i do something wrong when editing the files? Maybe. What did you change in them?
And i didn´t quite understand all the "readme", in order to install the recorder do i also have to the "ide-scsi" to my cdrom and dvd drives, or only to my recorder??
In linux does the recorder have to be in a specific ide ( master/slave ) position in order to be installed?No. But it may help if the CDROM and burner were on the same port. Sometimes can have a conflict with DVDs.
and please tell me that it has nothing to do with my board and that it is just me doing something wrong..
It has nothing to do with your board. If it works in windows it should work fine (or better) in linux.
thanks for any help, and sorry for the long post but i thought i´d better explain all

Error while installing OWB on Redhat Linux

Hi,
I installed Oracle database on Linux , while installing oracle i got error
error while writing to directory /tmp/OraInstall<date> please ensure that this directory is writable and has atleast 60mb of disk space. Installation can not continue
then i did some thing and it went thru, now i am trying to install the OWB again i am getting the same error and i was browsing net past 2 days for a solution but i din't get one
while installing oracle i have not made any notes, that was my mistake
Please suggest me the possible solution or the Document which can guide me
Thanks in Advance
Suresh

Hi,
the problem is the logfile for the installation. Every oracle installtion writes a log file with this name in a predefined directory. Make the directory /tmp writable for oracle and extend the disk quota at least 60 MB.

Problems in Installing 9i or RedHat Linux

For downloading Oracle 9i on linux:

Can't install d2k6ir2 products on Linux

This download includes about 17 different products. I'm trying to install only Forms Server/Developer, Unix Installer and PL/SQL Procedure Builder at this time. I've studied the included documentation, set every environment variable there is and tried running ./orainst both with and without the create DB objects options. But the installation process never completes. What it does do is cause a Segmentation Fault. My RH 7.0 Linux OS stops it at this point and greets me with a core dump. This always appears to take place while "Loading ORACLE Common Utilities Executables..."
Come on -- I know there's somebody out there that has installed these products on Linux.

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.

Hi,
I am an oracle and system administrator. I'm trying for a month to install :
Oracle 9i Database (64-bits) Rel 2 (9.2.0.2.0) for linux Intel Itaniuml
On : my server (DELL PowerEdge 7150 bi-processor (Itanium 733 Mhz) )
with : Red Hat Advanced Server for The Itanium Processor Operating system
I have chaged the kernel, glibc and gcc with the versions described by different documents.

I think that i'm enable to get the right glibc and the gcc rpms that can work with itanium-linux.
One document says that i must get (Linux Header Patch 2.4.18 ) from Intel !!!
I'm searching for days but no way !!!
That's very urgent ...

Did you carefully go through all pre-req steps for install?
Oracle needs some "compatibility libraries" as well (compat-lib*). Here are packages for AS 10g, most or all of which apply to Database too.
Checking operating system packages: gcc-3.2.3-20,compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.122,compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.122,compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.122,compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122,setarch-1.3-1,pdksh-5.2.14,sysstat-4.0.7,gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-34.1,libstdc++-3.2.3,compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122,compat-glibc-7.x-2.2.4.32.5
When required packages are in place, there's another error lurking, related to __libc_wait symbol.
runInstaller "boots" OUI, which includes running a JRE from tmp. This JRE (build 02) is broken, but you can setup to run another one via oraparam.ini and JRE_LOCATION. Download build 10 from Sun (google "jre 1.3.1 download").

Can not install Oracle on Redhat 7.3

I have installed Redhat 7.3 . I tried to install Oracle 8i Release 2 (8.1.6).
But when I try to run runInstaller, nothing runs, Applet(JRE) does not open.
what is the problem?
I have successfully installed this Oracle 8.1.6 on Redhat 6.2

Hi there;
Here is what I have done to install Oracle8i 8.1.7 on Redhat7.3:
Things you need to download:
JAVA:
Get the JDK - jdk118_v3-glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2
Get the JRE - jre118_v3-glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2
use bzip2 OR tar:
tar -xvjf jdk-1.1.8_v3.tar.bz2 -C /usr/local
as well for jre118
Symbolically link them:
ln -s /usr/local/jdk118_v3/bin/java /bin/java
ln -s /usr/local/jre118_v3/bin/jre /bin/jre
ln -s /usr/local/jdk118_v3 /usr/local/java
ln -s /usr/local/jre118_v3 /usr/local/jre
After you: tar -xvf /tmp/linux81701.tar
chmod 777 Disk1
cd Disk1
chmod 777 runinstaller
Now you should be able to run the <runInstaller>
when you receive this error close to end just click on ignor:
Error in invoking target relink of makefile /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.7/precomp/lib/ins_ctx.mk" Or something similar
The below operations should be performed logged in as root.
changes must be done on the root.sh script:
line 102 Read:
RMF=/bin/rm -f
changed it to: RMF=`/bin/rm -f`
line 156
RUID=`/usr/bin/id|$AWK -F$ '{print $2}'|$AWK -F$ '{print $1}`
change it to:
RUID=`/usr/bin/id|$AWK -F$ '{print $2}'|$AWK -F$ '{print $1}'`
Execute the script root.sh.
Ignore the errors about not being able to delete the files.
After you finish with: Net8 Configuration Assistant:
The below operations should all be performed logged in as oracle.
cd $ORACLE_HOME<In my machine is:cd product/8.1.7>
tar -xvzf /tmp/glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar.gz
./setup_stubs
Then exit from: $ORACLE_HOME
and edit .bash_profile OR .bashrc whichever you modified in preinstall
add the following line: export ORACLE_SID=<whatever you named it during install>
My machine read as this: export ORACLE_SID=oral
At this point I strongly suggest you logg out from Oracle Account and re-log again
Then edit this file: /etc/oratab
and change: *:/home/oracle/product/8.1.7:N To *:/home/oracle/product/8.1.7:Y
Now you can use dbstart and dbshut scripts from the command mode to start and stop the database.
most likely when you try to start the database for the first time you will receive
the error: ORA-01081<you can't star database is already startet>
Then go to svrmgrl and connect internal and type: shutdown Abort
re-start your Database and you are ready to go!!!!!!
Hope that is help

Can't install Forte4j on SuSE Linux 8.0 ...

Hi all,
I tried to install Forte4J on my SuSE Linux 8.0. But I receive a strange error during the installation process.
"package 02f06fd12771dbf359f999a9adb8b305-4.0- is not installed"
So, which package do I need? ;-) I installed JDK 1.4.1 which runs fine and is found by the Forte installer. But I didn't install it as a RPM - because there was no RPM available.
Maybe someone can give me a hint on that ...
Thnx.
Axel

There's a new bin file available for JDK 1.4.1 and it works even if after the
installation the error appears. ;-)
But be sure NOT to download the combined JDK and SunOneStudio bin file with about
98 MB. There's a bin file available which contains only SunOneStudio for
JDK 1.4.1. Use that one!

Can't install Oracle on SuSE Linux 9.3 Pro

Hi,
i try since three weeks to install Oracle 9.2 Release 2. My last Problem was,
that i didn't know how to log in as the created Oracle User. This Problem is solved.
But when i install Oracle as the Oracle User and try to configure the Administrator
Group, i get the error, that i don't have the specific permission to change that,
so i gave the Oracle User all Rights about every directory (chown oracle:dba / ).
After that the Installation proceed without any problem, but after the Installation,
the Database Configuration Assistant failed to install and two other Assistants, too.
So, i don't know where there problem is. I fulfilled every pre-installation Task, but
it still isn't possible for me, to install Oracle 9.2 on a SuSE Linux 9.3 Professional
System.
If anyone could help me along this Installation, i would be very thankful.
Thanks a lot
Daniel

But when i don't give the oracle user all rights, it isn't possible to proceed with theinstallation
But if you give that rights then it's a security hole. According to your words I guess you have similar enviroment settings:
ORACLE_BASE=/
ORACLE_HOME=/<directory_name>
Why you not installing on deeper directory such as /opt or some your own directory? For example
ORACLE_BASE=/myoracledir
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/<directory_name>
Then chown -R oracle:dba /myoracledir.
Then oracle will be owner just for /myoracle directory and all its subdirectories.
i just could look at the error details, but they didn't described the erroranyway.
That's not so true. Error log you could find in /tmp/OraInstallYYYY-MM-DD_HH_MI_SS..
