HTTP check RW-5001 - Oracle EBS 12.1.1 Rapidwiz on RHEL 5 VMWARE Fusion

Question

Dear All,
I have been attempting to install Oracle EBS 12.1.1 Using Rapidwiz on RHEL 5 VMWARE Fusion for the past month, i have run through the install on a few occaisions now just to ensure that i have followed all the pre-reqs correctly and also set up the guest OS as described in several posts including (http://www.oraclenerd.com/2009/12/ebs-install-guide-part-1.html, http://gerardnico.com/wiki/ebs/installation and always refering back to My Oracle Support Doc ID 761566.1: Oracle Applications Installation and Upgrade Notes Release 12 (12.1.1) for Linux x86-64.
I have installed (prior to running rapidwiz) the oracle recommended patch p6078836_101330_LINUX.zip and confirmed from the install that the Database listener and Database are up and running (checked by running the db.env script and running addbctl.sh and addlnctl.sh respectively). However, the rapid install completes with an error for HTTP, java, Login Page, Help files, in the post intall checks.
The error displayed for the HTTP check RW-50015: Error: - HTTP Listener is not responding. The service might not have started on the port yet. Please check the service and use the retry button.
I've found posts relating to this message, and proceeded to check the status and try and start the apps services manually; however, i'm experiencing another error message;
You are running adopmnctl.sh version 120.6
Checking the status of opmn managed process...
Unable to connect to open
opmn may not be up.
Then i try and start the services manually after running the INST_computername.env scripts;
*[applvis@oracler12 scripts]$ ./adopmnctl.sh start*
You are running adopmnctl.sh version 120.6
Starting Oracle Process Manager (OPMN) ...

I'm not a DBA and i'm just starting out to learn how ebusiness suite is installed and how the applications run in parralel to the database. (my history of oracle ebs front end development and functional support)
I know there are a few posts out there within these forums that go into some details on what this issue may be, however, i cannot find any that specifically address my type of install and OS setup, and sometimes find it hard to understand the terminology and techniques used to diagnose these kinds of issues.
What i'm looking for is for some help in diagnosing and trouble shooting my issue, i will be happy to provide any output that is required to help address the issue and will be online regularly until i can have this issue resolved.
So, if you can help, please let me know where we can start.
Many thanks
Simon

Hi All,
Problem solved, although not on RHEL 5. I started over with a clean install of OEL 5.4, completed all the pre-reqs and applied reccommended patching, install completed fine, not experienced same issues with http. Differing install steps;
A) Selected different Port pool - 67 instead of 55
B) in OEL 5 when installing, if gives you the option to turn off SELINUX, which i compelted.
C) Checking the OS, i noticed the rpm versions were quite different (probably somewhat obvious, but im not sure if this had an impact)
Although, this was a fristrating set up, i have (i think) learnt a bit more about linux and installing ebs.
Thanks all for your guidance and help
Simon
