HELP Unable to Install Red Hat Linux!

Hi there !
I'm getting the following message trying to install red hat linux 8.0: " There was an error installing glibc commom 2.2.93-5. This can indicate media failure, lack of disk space and hardware problems. This is a fatal error and installation will be aborted . Please verify media and try you install again"
I already tried media test and several inst. options and still get the same error. Suspect of hardware incompatibilities!
Help will be greatly appreciated ...!

There was a media problem. The disk on which installation was taking place has bad blocks.
Disk was replaced and installation was succesful !.
Thanks anyway ....!

How to Install Oracle on Red Hat Linux?

My System is having P4 1.8 GHz Processor with 128 MB RAM, 40 GB HDD(7 GB Linux Partition + 1 GB Swap Partition). I have installed Red Hat Linux 9(Server). Now, I want to install Oracle 9 on this syste. But I don't know how to install it. Anyone who knows this, plz, mail me the necessary system requirements alongwith some settings, if any. My Email ID is [email protected]/[email protected]

I think you'll have some problems with 128MB RAM.....<br><br>
:P Nonsense, but I do hope that hard drive is one of those new, fancy flash hard drives, otherwise the system will spend so much time swapping that it won't get past the installer.

Get the official installation guides at

However, they won't contain "now enter command X and now enter command Y". You will need to have a basic understanding what you are doing before you can install a SAP system (and the database).

FMS RED HAT LINUX PROBLEMS

Hi,
I hope that someone can help me. I am having so much trouble
getting FMS to work it is unbelievable.
We have installed FMS onto virtual server running Red Hat
Linux Enterprise 3. We have managed to get
FMS running but cannot get a connection to work. This is
using the sample application 'textchat'. here is a summary of what
we and a coleague have done.
1) I have linked the libraries to obtain the desired
libssl.so.4,
libssl.so.6, libcrypto.so.4 and libcrypto.so.6.
2) I have installed the lates mozilla firefox and the latest
flash
plugin (together with the update-flashplugin)
3) Then I have created the installation by adding the
following entry:
/etc/redhat-release together with it's content
4) Then I have performed a regular fms installation together
with adding
the licensing etc. I have also copied the textchat main.asc
file and the
textchat pages (swf and html)
So basically we have added all the missing libraries (that we
know of...cmon adobe get it together £3000
and you don't even include relavent libraries) .
If any body has any ideas please reply. we are almost a month
down the line struggling with this software.
Thanks for an help

The issue I had encountered that was that I tried to install and configure Grid Infrastructure the way that I had previously using Red Hat Linux 5.5, 5.8 and then 6.0. I had decided to install Red Hat Linux 6.3 which does not support Oracle asmlib and oracleasm to keep up with the technology and to be innovative.
Oracle has added significant enhancements to Grid Infrastructure. The only way to become aware of these enhancements is to "Do It". I've documented this implementation and will now

Oracle 8.1.7 on Red Hat Linux on a Dell Poweredge

We have a Dell PowerEdge 6400 server with PERC 2/DC raid
controllers.
We have installed Red Hat Linux 6.2.
According to the installation guide in order to install Oracle
8.1.7 we need to recompile the Kernal to get to version 2.2.19-
6.2.7.
Recompiling the Kernal causes a failure in the Raid controllers.
I realise that this isn't strictly Oracle but I wondered if
anyone had met this problem before. It appears virtually
impossible to configure this combination to support Oracle.

Yes there is a lot of information out there. Oracle 8.1.6,
8.1.7, 9 on Linux 6, 7, 9.
Which glibc? binutils? compat-libs?
For 8.1.7 on Redhat 9

Still evolving. Feedback welcome :)

Problem installing Oracle 8.0.5 on Red Hat Linux 7.0

Hi,
Due to a software requirement, I have to install Oracle 8.0.5 on Red Hat Linux 7.0. (I know Oracle 8.0.5 is pretty old and so as RH Linux 7.0 but that is what required).
I downloaded the Oracle8051EE_Intel.tgz from Oracle and tried to installed it but it didn't work.
It crashed out when it tried to run some of the SQL script during the installation using SVRMGRL. Later on, we found out all the binaries under $ORACLE_HOME/bin were corrupted during the installation. We did a comparison of the size of SVRMGRL and SQLPLUS and they are different from the Stage (or the one from the .tgz).
Does anyone have this problem before? Will 8.0.5 works on Linux 7.0?
Thanks in advanced for any help.
Best regards,
William

could help get us through this first step of starting the oracle
installer interface. I never thought it would be this hard to
get started.

Installing 11i apps on windows xp and Red Hat linux AS 3.0

Hi,
I am a newbie to Oracle E-business suite............i will be very helpful if anybody could help me with the full procedure on how to install Oracle apps on windows on Windows XP and Red Hat linux AS 3.0.........starting with configuring ip.....i would really appreciate if somebody helps me out...........well thanks in advance..waiting for a optmistic reply...
Thanks again,
Virendra

I have done installation on XP and 2000 servers are heres the steps... detailed ones. I also request those who install Oracle Apps 11i to first read the installtion pdf's which helps you understand clearly the prerequisites overall.
You cannot find the Pre installtion steps(such as Mks Toolkit and GNUMake config) in more clear terms from those documents.Which are explained here.
The Must PDF's to refer before installation
1)r1152ins.pdf
2)11iconcepts.pdf
According to the 11iconcepts PDF you can decide your business needs the N-Tier Architecture and Database Server and Application Tier Server File System in a very clear terms.
The installation process can be divided into
Pre Installtion,Installation and Post-Installation stages.
I would caution everyone to concentrate more on Pre Installation stage and which is more critical for a successfull installtion of Oracle Apps and to be free with later cropping up problems.
Further before moving into Installtion stages i have to Explain the Number of CD's and Installtion type's in Oracle App's.
In many places you may need to wait patiently even more than 10 minutes for screens(Dialog Boxes) to appear dont conclude prematurely some problem on system.
In oracle Apps 11.5.1 it consist of 12 CD's.
1) Start Here CD(RAPID Installation Wizard)
2)1-11 CD's
1-3 Application Top information
4th Oracle DB
5-6 IAS and other tools
7-11 Oracle Apps DB.
You have to decide whether you are going to do a Single Node Installation(No Post-Installation Task) or Multi Node Installation. Refer(r1152ins.pdf)
While installing for Multi Node you can see the Installation locations to be mentioned as
Appl_Top,Common_Top,Data_Top etc.Try to install Appl_top and common_Top in one drive and Data_Top in another Drive(Single Node) and in different nodes in Multi Node installation.
Installation Types
Production ==>Real time Env implementation's
Test ==>For test Env Purposes
Vision Demo==>R&D or learning Purposes.
Pre-Installation steps
======================
Space Requirement for types of installtions
Install VC++
How to Download and install MKS tool Kit
How to Download and Configure GNUMAKE
Env path setting
Create Applmgr user in Win2000
Space Requirement for types installtion:
Memory Requirement
1 GB of RAM(512 Fine for initial Installtion)
but planned for more user connections another 1 GB of Ram and according to the number of user's and Application needs you have to Increase the Memory.
HDD capacity
APP_Top(A)
COMMON_TOP(C)
DATA_TOP(D)
Test DB : 22 + 20 GB (60 GB recommended)
Prod DB : 22 + 20 GB (60 GB recommended)
Vision Demo DB: 22 + 35 GB (80 GB recommended).
Plus space for ur staging area.
This are the actuall space required for the Oracle Apps Alone plan for more space for future needs etc.
Softwares on System
Win2000 server with Patch1,Winzip and Acrobat Reader Latest version etc.
Install VC++:
Install a clean installtion of VC++ of Visual Studio Family 6.0
It should be first installed before installing MKS or GNUMAKE
NOTE: When Visual C++ is installed, let the installer register all environment variables. This will allow executables to be linked from the command line.
How to Download and install MKS tool Kit:
Note:Try to purchase the MKS tool kit from the below site.
or try to download the trial version valid for a months time.
http://www.mkssoftware.com/products/tk/ds_tkio.asp
Evaluation copy from
http://www.mkssoftware.com/eval/
Choose "MKS Toolkit for Interoperability " Download it in C:\
Again you have to click the downloaded kit to start the actual download of 38 MB of MKS tollkit Evaluation version.
You will be sent a Demo serial number to your mail id==>copy the same to a Notepad on your desktop.
Now start the installtion of the MKSToolkit on your system by clicking on the MKStoolkit downloaded.
It will prompt you for the Demo serial number which has to be provided.
The MKStoolkit will be successfully installed.
How to Download and Configure GNUMAKE:
1) HOW TO GET AND INSTALL GNUMAKE ON WINDOWS2000
This can be done by performing the following steps:
NOTE: Please, be aware that you must install Visual C++ BEFORE installing GNUMAKE, because its installation process involves linking executables.
1) Before downloading GNUMAKE, you will need to acquire some utilities which will be used for unpacking files. You can obtain the required utilities at the following
URL: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/windows/emacs/utilities/i386/
The directory contains the following files:
README
djtarnt.exe
gunzip-1.2.4-i386.exe
gzip-1.2.4-i386.exe
tar-1.11.2-i386.exe
tar-1.11.2a.exe
Only two of the files are required:
gunzip-1.2.4-i386.exe and tar-1.11.2a.exe
2) After downloading the above files, rename them as follows:
gunzip-1.2.4-i386.exe => gunzip.exe
tar-1.11.2a.exe => tar.exe
Place them into a directory that you can set in you PATH environment variable.
3) Point your browser to the following
URL: ftp://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/make
The files needed from this directory are:
make-3.77.tar.gz
make-3.78.1.tar.gz
make-3.79.1.tar.gz
make-3.79.tar.gz
Development requires to install version 3.77 or above. Downloading the latest version is perhaps best decision, but there are advantages to downloading the version required by development (3.77). (This document assumes that version 3.77 has been downloaded) (NOTE: AVOID USING SPACES IN
DIRECTORY AND FILE NAMES. GNUMAKE,VISUAL C++, ETC. DO NOT ALWAYS DEAL WELL WITH SPACES)
4) For instance, suppose you have downloaded file make-3.77.tar.gz on a directory called C:\GNUMAKE, unpack this file using gunzip.exe from a Command Prompt Window
Example: C:\GNUMAKE>gunzip make-3.77.tar.gz This last action, will expand file make-3.77.tar.gz and the extension .gz will be removed.
5) On the same Command Prompt Window, you should UnTAR the file, with the following
command: C:\GNUMAKE>tar -xvf make-3.77.tar This will create a new subdirectory called MAKE-3.77 under C:\GNUMAKE, the original directory.
6) In the new subdirectory, there is a batch file
called build_w32.bat; run the batch file to generate GNUMAKE.EXE
Try this from Command Prompt more than once if succesfully not built message appers till you get Generated successfully.
Note:If Possible run all the bat files in the MAKE-3.77 and also config.bat in the sub directory by double clicking it.
WARNING: There is a known issue with this last step, "GNU make fails to build regardless of chosing build_w32 or nmake"
See [NOTE:115937.1]
for work around. RELATED DOCUMENTS ----------------- For Microsoft Visual C++, MKS Toolkit and

Important:All the downloaded files from GNU makes web sites shall be put in a single folder called gnumake under c:\ .Try to search for config.bat file inside this folders just click and
run it.

Try to search make.exe generated in c:\program files\mkstoolkit\mksnt and copy and paste it
c:\gnumake\MAKE-3.77\windebug and c:\gnumake\MAKE-3.77\winRel also paste both this paths in the
My Computers==>Properties==>Advanced==>Environment variables==>Path setting's
After all this check as follows from CMD mode.
1)execute make at c:\>

In win2000 it may return error messages or Target wrong ignore it.If it is on Win NT then it will return proper status.
Create Applmgr user in Win2000:
Create a Applmgr user account in win2000 .
Installation:
=============
What here you require is the Patience .
Load the START HERE CD and run the C:\> cd \cdrom\rapidwiz
For Test and Prod it will ask for the location of Appl_Top,Common_Top and Data_Top location. Mention there path and ensure if more than one installtion say eg.Vision and Test or Prod to check the Path in all the tab pages its corresponding values and path's.
In Vision Demo many of the Options are not propmted from the user.
It will then do the system checking for Host Name and other details.All the checking should have been passed or if failed it will mark it in RED cross mark.Rectify the mistake and then onceagain proceed or else you will have problem after installation.
The Installation time takes around 5 to 6 Hrs of time.
For info on Post installation or on Multi Node follow the pdf's i have mentioned above.
The most tedious of all is succesfully crossing the Apps system checking it does for all
installed products it requires without any failure.
The GNUMAKE configuration or steps were nowhere given and it was all our trail and error exp.
This is possibly the most elaborate steps to install Apps on Win. post for further help. email me at [email protected] or [email protected]

Installing issues with Oracle Database 11g R1 on Red Hat Linux

Hi,
I am installing Oracle Database 11g on Red Hat Linux.
Version of the OS:Linux 2.6.9-5.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 19:30:39 EST 2005 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
I have installed XManager on my PC to access the runtime installer in Graphical mode.
But once i click the installer file from Xmanager, it asks if the user wants to run it in terminal or simply run.
I selected the run in terminal and it starts the terminal where the initial pre-requisite checks are done i.e swap memory,temp and display.
The screen disappers and the graphical OUI never turns up...
Any pointer would be helpful.
Regards
Prabal

Try the following:
1. logon to the linux using root and issue the following command - xhost+
2. Open xterm in the Xmanager and logon to the linux using oracle user.
3. in the installation directory issue ./runInstaller.
