Cannot complete installation on Ubuntu 8.04

I have some experience installing Oracle Standard / SE One on Windows 2003 Server, and in general I have no problems.
I am new to Ubuntu/Linux and I like it. I am also new to Oracle XE. I have made several trials to get Oracle running on Ubuntu and I just can't. Sometimes it installs and I even can log into SQL plus as SYS and run some selects. But the XE home page never displays. Last time when configuring Oracle it says port 8080 is invalid and doesn't accept any other port.
As I don't know Linux very well, I'd like to know if it is necessary to create an Oracle user and then install Oracle as root, but within Oracle user, or is it the same if I create the user Francisco and install Oracle as root within Francisco user? Or what is the way? I cannot log in as root in Ubuntu desktop. Also, where do I have to save the .deb package in order to unpack it, and should I run it from the full path or reference it from outside (another directory)? I just got lost in linux directory structure.
I have reinstalled Ubuntu completely to do an Oracle fresh install, and got no results.
The installation steps in Oracle manuals are very clear, I'd like to have some advice on the PRE-installation requirements.
Thanks,
Francisco.

You may need to set the port through
exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport(<port>);Then you should also check if the listener is up and running
And make sure that you don't have any firewall settings that would prevent access

Last time I tried the debian package, the Oracle user was automatically created by that package. No need to add your own user, unless you want to.

You don't have to. If you want to have root access, try
sudo -sif I remember correctly.

Just save it in the /tmp directory or any other download directory. Installation is done through the dkpg command, if I remember correctly.

  • Installing windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, cannot complete installation

    Hello,
    I am currently trying to install a genuine windows 7 home premium copy on my iMac 27" using boot camp assistant 3.0.1 on a new partition. Partition is correctly made, installation proccess was smooth but when windows restarted to complete installation everything goes black. When I use safe mode it tells me that windows cannot complete installation on safe mode, and prompt me to reboot and start windows normally. The windows logo appears again but then everything goes black. I removed the partition and repartititoned the disk with boot camp, and tried installing again. Now it's been about half an hour and after the installation reboot, and the screen is black.
    Any ideas?
    thanks in advance.

    Sorry,
    Is this an edu download ISO that you burned to DVD yourself, or retail copy?
    No reason to redo partition, when / if you do boot 7 HP, you can always just do clean install, there is nothing wrong with the partitions.
    There definitely are problems with 27" iMac and Windows 7 support, and BC 3.0 came out last... July actually, so almost a year, and before RTM (even though "frozen" W7 went through some major changes later).
    The worst scenario is when BCA freezes or is killed, that can leave the entire drive and Mac OS inoperable (backups are imperative).
    So if you burned the DVD yourself and used Disk Utility, reburn at reduced (2x) speed is all I can think of.
    More problems await you AFTER 7 is installed and Apple Boot Camp drivers mess things up again!
    See the very last post here (3 pages):

  • I cannot complete installation of Adobe Reader to Read PDF

    I cannot complete the Adobe Reader Free installation to print or read documents, I get to the final install and the program does not install. it is in my downloads but I cannot finish the final steps? Help Please Jimbo4070   

    I'm sure that folks will be able to assist with getting Adobe Reader installed.  However, I just wanted to first make sure that you realize that your Mac can natively view and print PDF file using the Preview application.  Just double-click any PDF and it should open just fine.
    Assuming that you already realize that, but still want Adobe's Reader, please post what happens when you run the installer that you have downloaded from the Adobe Reader page (http://get.adobe.com/reader/).  Do you get a specific error message?

  • After Installing - Cannot Complete Installs for Programs

    I installed Snow Leopard and it seemed to be running fine after I granted myself Admin access again.
    However, I tried running the installs for multiple programs including a security update to the OS, iLife and iWork - the installs get to "Preparing Installation" and freeze.
    I have tried leaving some of these installs up for up to 48 hours and there is no progress.
    Yahoo Messenger also freezes on sign in with a similar problem.
    How do I fix this so that I may use Yahoo Messenger and run installs again?

    I suggest you might try this:
    Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger and Leopard.) After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the installer. Now restart normally.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    If this doesn't help any, then reinstall SL.
    To upgrade iLife and iWork you will have to purchase the '09 versions. There is no free upgrade path from '08 versions.

  • Cannot Complete Installation of Vista with Mac Pro and Boot Camp

    I only have one hard drive with my Mac Pro, and I partitioned the drive into two sections with boot camp and restarted with my Vista 64 bit Ultimate CD.
    I have tried formatting the partition with Vista and it still gives me the dreaded error message of "windows is unable to find a system volume that meets its criteria". I've tried deleting the partition during installation, and making a new partition with Vista, reformatting, then restarting the computer. Same message.
    I don't know what to do. I've tried like mad searching for topics like this one here, but every one of them deals with installing vista on a second dedicated hard drive on the Mac Pro. I only have one. How do I get this to work?
    Please help if you can. I would REALLY appreciate it. I'll be watching the thread. Thank you!!

    Thank you for your reply! I'll be here all night.
    I have the 3GHz Dual-Core Intel Xeon processors. I tried installing Vista ultimate with my 32 bit software, but I still get the same message (I own both legally, btw).
    Thanks for your help.
    Several things to do:
    Run OS-X Disk utility and repair the disk if necessary, and file permissions.
    Be sure your HD has the GUID partition scheme and if it has SMART that it's OK
    Zap the PRAM
    Be sure you are logged in as administrator when creating the BC partition and starting the installation of Windows from Leopard
    When I installed Vista Ultimate 64-bit, I was using BootCamp beta, 1.2 or 1.3. I created the partition with BootCamp Assistant.app as you did. It's a 60GB partition that I formatted with NTFS with BC.
    After starting the install in Tiger, I then simply inserted the Vista 64-bit DVD and that was it.
    It just installed.
    Ditto with XP-Pro on my other MBP. Zero problems with BC. It was also done with a beta, BC1.0.
    I have never installed Windows using Leopard. When I updated to Leopard from Tiger nothing changed, but there seem to be more problems with Leopard and BC2.0 than there were with Tiger and the beta versions.
    There are no requirements about legality until after the OS is installed, so that's a moot point.
    There are some install DVDs that are in ISO format and they won't work, but it seems that yours is working but not finding a suitable volume.
    You might try reformatting the BC partition with BootCamp assistant as FAt32 and seeing if that works, but you are limited to 32GB if you do that, but it would be a good test. Vista should then format it into NTFS.
    Be sure that your Leopard OS is fully backed up because stuff happens when you keep fooling around with partitions.

  • Cannot complete Installs for any Apple software! Stall, Stall, Stall...

    Hi Everybody!
    Can anyone help me...
    I've tried to download iTunes 10 but the download stalls at 10% (approx. 7.5mb),also Quicktime stalls too at around 50%, Safari stalls at about 60%...
    No error messages, no info, they all just stall Everytime!
    I've deleted iTunes 9 and all associated files, I run AVG 2011 Free edition, turned that off too, turned off firewall, pop-up blocker but Nothing!
    Everytime it just stalls at exactly the same point...
    HEEEELLLLLLPPPPPPPP!!!
    Cheers!

    I understand, other downloads work OK. Are they as big a download as the itunes setup file which is 71MB? Network speed isn't the issue here, some routers seem to be blocking large downloads. HAve your windows updates been downloading OK? My suggestion was to take the router out of the mix.

  • 'Windows cannot complete the installation.Restart the installation.

    I had a hard drive replacement on my HP Pavillion dm4, and ordered HP Recovery disks (3). Which I then installed along with a Driver supplementary disk. After this laptop finalized software installation and now it says that
    Windows cannot complete installation. Restart installation.
    Everytime computer restarts I get thos error message. There is no way to get out.
    What should I do? Install disks again? I dont know what to do now.

    Hi R98,
    I saw your post and I will be happy to help. Yes, you will need to do this on a different computer. As for the 32 or 64 bit question; you can't tell from the BIOS but you can use certain information to look up the processor but the install will have to go successfully first.

  • OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g cannot complete s/w installation on laptop running XP

    Initially, successfully installed the 8600 s/w on a Dell D810 laptop running XP which is linked both via Ethernet and wirelessly to the same LAN as the printer.  The printer is wirelessly linked to a port on a WAP device connected to the LAN/router. After setting up the router with DNS 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 addresses, successfully set-up e-Print function thru Verizon high speed internet connection. This confirms that the my LAN and Internet can see the printer connection through the WAP. Guess I should have left well enough alone, but I decided to also install the printer on my desktop, a Dell XPS desktop (also running on XP) that is linked thru a wired Ethernet connection to the same LAN.
    The XPS s/w install was flawless and I can print from the desktop and HP e-print functions continue to work on the 8600, but I can no longer print from the laptop.  As I mentioned, the s/w did load successfully  on the laptop when I initially installed the printer. Following a suggestion on HP's website, I uninstalled the HP 3800 s/w in an attempt to reinstall the printer on the laptop. However, I have not been able to successfully reload the s/w on the laptop, despite numerous attempts.. The program can find the printer on the LAN, it always comes up with the same result: "The printer was unable to be installed over the network".  I confirmed that there is no firewall or security setting blocking the s/w load. 
    As part of my problem resolution, I've also followed the procedures contained in HP Troubleshooting Your Wireless Connection  but still cannot complete the installation process on the laptop. In my latest attempt to resolve the problem,  I marked the 8600 as shared on the XPS desktop system, as suggested in another post, but suspect that would only affect USB-connected printers, not those that are wirelessly connected.
    When I downloaded the HP Hardware Diagnostic Utility (HPHDU), it also was able to find the printer on the LAN but displayed a message: "We're sorry but the OfficeJet Pro 8600 N911g in not supported by this utility".
    Can anyone offer a suggestion as to why the 8600 install worked successfully when initially loaded on my laptop but I cannot reload it? That could provide a clue as to what is blocking the reinstallation on the laptop. As I said, the desktop s/w loaded successfully and I can access the 8600's functions from there. Each of the HP utilities I downloaded from HP and have run on the laptop can find the 8600, but none can complete the s/w load so that I can use the printer from the laptop.
    The LAN also has an Ethernet link to a HP OfficeJet 7310 that can be accessed from any PC on my network, so I reluctant to entirely remove all HP software so I can at least have one printer operational. I feel like I am on the bleeding edge of technology so any help is appreciated!
    Thanks.

  • I cannot complete an installation of ITunes.  During the install, I receive the following error message:   Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Bonjour\dns_sd.jar.

    I cannot complete an installation of ITunes.  During the install, I receive the following error message:
    Error writing to file: C:\Program Files\Bonjour\dns_sd.jar.

    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
    Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Full recovery from disk "Windows cannot complete the installation"? stuck in loop!

    I have a satellite A305-6916 in which the hard drive failed, and I did not have recovery media. I bought a new hard drive, and ordered recovery media. I installed the new hard drive...the old one was a WD 320gig that I replaced with a new WD640gig....and I booted the recovery disc. It went through the whole process for like an hour until it got just past where it said "please wait while windows sets up your computer" and then to the Vista splash screen, and then I got an error message with no number that said " Windows cannot complete the installation. To Install Windows on this computer, restart the installation" Then a message followed about Windows will not operate with the hardware on this computer. Now it just endlessly boots to the first message. I click ok, and it restarts, gets to the splash screen and displays the message. I was running vista 64bit with 4megs of ram. If they sent me the Vista32bit recovery disc, could this be my problem? The disc says it is 64bit????

  • Cannot find Runtime Assitant after complete installations

    Hi Gurus,
    I have tried deploying OWB 10g along with Oracle 10g (10.2) as well as with Oracle 9i (9.2.0). Both the times the installation was successful but I could't find the Runtime Assitant anywher after complete installations.
    I found Repository Assistant with the help of which we created the Design repository but was unable to find the Runtime Assistant in the installed components.
    Please help..
    Regards,
    AB

    As detlef pointed out, in the OWB 10gR2 version, there is no more notion of separate repositories. Check out this thread:
    Design Repository / Runtime Repository OWB 10gR2
    But for every database hosting a target schema you need to install and have running the OWB runtime service. This service is then accessed using the Control Center, previously known as the Runtime Repository Assistant.

  • Please help - cannot complete itunes 6 installation

    Here's my deal:
    I have Windows 2000, service pack 4 on an IBM T22, with plenty of hard disk space left and I have had the older version of iTunes (5 i guess) on my computer since I upgraded about a year ago (got iTunes a little over a year ago with my mini iPod). I had trouble then, but somehow got it to work, until now, when I was prompted to upgrade (could not download music otherwise), so I tried to do that, but it failed. One of two things happens: either I get a message that says 1628: Failure to complete installation, OR it just stops installing and I get a box in the minimize bar at the bottom of my desktop that appears to be a dialogue box for QuickTime and iTunes, but that, when clicked on, does not appear (maximize) on my screen. I have now uninstalled QuickTime, iTunes, and my setup.exe, and have tried reinstalling, but the same two things keep happening. I fear that I have lost the ability to install, since the setup.exe is now gone from my desktop. Also, I already tried the suggestions about the 1628 error provided by apple (clearing temp files etc.) and nothing seems to help.
    Please help me! I don't have a clue about what to do and am very very frustrated.

    hi Kelsey!
    It seems to hiccup right in the middle of the box that says "preparing InstallShield Wizard, which will guide you through the setup process / preparing to install" portion...and then it just stops.
    gaah. okay, first check to make sure your Windows Installer engine is up to date:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976
    then let's try this again
    b with all background applications switched off:
    http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108379
    antivirus, antispyware, Cygwin and various other applications have been implicated with these hangs ... so i reckon it's safest to try to switch all of 'em off prior to the install.
    keep us posted.
    love, b

  • Cannot move any files into trash to delete them. I get a Trash warning box saying "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in 'file name' could not be read or written.(Error code - 36)".Macbook has so much data it is almost not working

    Cannot move any files into trash to delete them. I get a Trash warning box saying "The Finder cannot complete the operation because some data in 'file name' could not be read or written.(Error code - 36)".Macbook has so much data it is almost not working.
    I have tried reseting to factory settings by removing battery and holding down the power switch for more than 5 sec but this does nothing.
    Any ideas would be greatly appreciated as I think with so much unwanted data on the desktop and other places the whole os will crash very soon.
    Thanks, Rick

    The hard drive may be dying anyway, or the directory damaged because it is so full.  You should never let the hard drive get over 85% full.
    A -36 error is a read/write error.
    All you did with the power is reset the SMC.  Does nothing to reset everything to factory settings. 
    Do you have your original 10.4 installer discs for the MacBook?
    Is your data backed up?

  • Cannot Complete KB2919355 Update, Error Code : 0xc0000001

    Hello,
     I encountered the MS KB2919355 update problem last year, and did not succeed in installing this update. I returned to the problem a few days ago and made some progress, however full installation is still elusive.
     I have a HP m7-J010DX notebook, E0K83UAR, Intel Core i7-4700MQ CPU, Win 8.1x64
    All other Windows & HP updates are installed.
     I followed the advice in another message, and performed the following operations,
    ------------------------------------------------- KB2919335 Installation Procedure
    1. download and install
     KB2959977   2.8MB (Jan/11/2015, already installed)
     KB2938439   19.6MB
     KB2937592   303KB
     KB2934018   126.4 MB
     KB2932046   48 MB
    2. Next, resetting Windows Update components
     WindowsUpdateDiagnostic.diagcab (downloaded and ran, fixed two things)
    3. The next step is performing a System File Check
      CMD as Admin: "sfc /scannow"
      Result: (I fixed this later, see below)
       Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some
       of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
       example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not
       supported in offline servicing scenarios.
    3b.
    Found the following command,
    CMD as Admin: "Dism /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth" 
     The restore operation completed successfully.
    The component store corruption was repaired.
    Went back to step 3 ("sfc /scannow") and now received
    "Verification 100% complete.
    Windows Resource Protection did not find any integrity violations."
    4. Next, please remove KB2919355
      CMD as Admin:
      "dism /online /remove-package /packagenameackage_for_KB2919355~31bf3856ad364e35~amd64~~6.3.1.14"
    (funny symbol should read "colon capital-p") 
    5. The WinSxS folder also has to be cleaned.
       CMD as Admin:
     "dism /online /cleanup-image /startcomponentcleanup /resetbase"
    6. Restart computer and then run the offline installer:
      Windows8.1-KB2919355-x64.msu        (KB2919355 690.8 MB)
    7. Restart computer during the process whenever it is required.
      Updating Computer
       ...30% complete
       Do not turn off your computer.
      This is when a problem occurred...
      circling dots moved to LHS of screen, computer restarted,
      "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to restart
      SYSTEM_THREAD_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED
      Error Code : 0xc0000001"
    Used,
    F8
    "Option 5 : Safe Mode with Networking"
    after restart,
    "we couldn't complete the updates
    undoing changes
    Don't turn off your computer"
    After a further restart the computer returned to logon.
     I would appreciate advice on how to proceed in order to complete installation of this update.
     Thank you.

    I read elsewhere that using the Advanced Options/Automatic Repair procedure could fix the installation.
    I tried this, it did not work, and now the situation is worse. The error report has changed to,
    The boot config data for your PC is missing or contains errors
    File : \EFI\Microsoft\Boot\BCD
    Error code : 0xc000000f
     The "Press F8 for Startup Settings" option no longer appears, and I can no longer get back to the log in screen and use the computer.
    I still have Troubleshoot options,
      1. Refresh your PC
      2. Reset your PC
      3. Recovery Manager (leads to USB based HP Recovery Manager
                                                                         after about 110sec of blue screen)
      4. Advanced Options
    4. Advanced Options leads to,
     1. System Restore
     2. System Image Recovery
     3. Automatic Repair
     4. Command Prompt
     5. UEFI Firmware Settings
     Every option that I have tried has failed. I do no appear to have a restore point set (though I thought that I did) so I cannot restore to an earlier date.
    F9 Boot Device Option/Boot Manager shows.
    1. OS boot Manager
    2. USB Hard Drive (UEFI)
    3. Boot From EFI File
    4. Notebook Hard Drive
    5. USB Hard Drive
     3. Boot from EFI File leads to a three options the first of which is,
    NO VOLUME LABEL, [Acpi(PNPxxxx, 0)/Pci(yyyy)/Usb(zz, 0)/HD(Part1, Sig00000000)]
     and thus eg.(there are other folders), EFI\Boot\en-gb\bootx64.efi.mui for the USB Recovery Drive which leads back to USB Drive Recovery Manager.
    There are also two other options, one for the main SSD that will no longer boot, and the other for the computers second drive (the original HDD) that has an earlier version of a booting drive C: (I cloned from the HDD -> SSD and use the HDD as a backup drive, however I left the original partitions in place).
     If I try to boot from the earlier data on the HDD (I did not really expect this to work completely) I get to the login screen, and an earlier password initially appears to be accepted, I get a brief Welcome, and then "The password is incorrect. Try again."
     I have a recent file backup and am figuring out a way to make a current file backup.
      I then plan to attempt a minimized image recovery or system recovery, unless I find a way to return to the login screen.
     Any suggestions ?
      Thank you.
