Install oracle 8.1.7 on Red Hat 8.0, can't find jre

Hi,
I follow the instructions at: http://www.ivascu.com/installing8i_linux80.htm
and http://linuxlab.dk/fcl/technotes/ora_817_3
I already installed JDK 1.3.1_07 and set JAVA_HOME in profile, I also create some link at usr/bin, usr/local/bin, $ORACLE_HOME/bin,..
But I still can't run the runInstaller, it 's inform:
"Java Runtime Environment not found at /bin/jre"
I installed JDK 1.3.1_07 and set JAVA_HOME in profile, I also create some link at usr/bin, usr/local/bin, $ORACLE_HOME/bin,..
Please tell me how to setting jre to let Oracle find.
Thank in advance

Hi Kenan,
Thank U and please tell me where I can find JDK 1.3.1_04, I searched in google but it couldn't find.
However, as the error message when I install Oracle 8.1.7, I think it needs JDK 1.1.8:
The Java RunTime Environment was not found at 0/bin/jre. Hence, the Oracle Universal Installer cannot be run.
Please visit http://www.javasoft.com and install JRE version 1.1.8 or higher and try again.
: No such file or directory
I already load and install JDK 1.1.8_v3 but nothing new, :-(

Installing Oracle 8.1.5 in Red Hat Linux 6.2

Hi,
I'm trying to install Oracle 8.1.5 in Red Hat Linux 6.2. But when I run the runInstaller
command it gives the following error & quit.
[oracle@localhost cdrom]$ ./runInstaller
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre. Please wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address
And I tried to run the Installer with jre1.1.6 & jre 1.1.7. Both producing the same
error.
You may think why I'm using the old version of Oracle. It's an urgent need for
me at the moment.
Hope someone could guide me in the correct path to install.
Thx in advance.

You need to install java.

Khalid,
This combination is strongly not recommended. Oracle 8.0.5 was built with GNU Lib C 2.0, which is 2 generations ago. It will not work once installed and I do not know if the old glibc compatibility libraries would be available.
I would encourage you to use Oracle 8i (8.1.7.0.1) or wait a few days for Oracle 9i.

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

Installing Oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux

Hi,
I am new with Linux Os and have to install oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux Os for a customer. So before proceeding, I need some guidelines.
1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setup
Regards
Edited by: user640001 on Feb 25, 2011 5:44 AM

1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?Ordinarily, I'd recommend getting Oracle Linux (http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux) because the default install includes all the prerequisite RPM packages you will need. And failing that, also offers another RPM package "oracle-validated" which will cause the installation of the necessary prerequisites.
But... you mentioned customer: if this is a revenue-producing situation and customer money is at stake, I strongly recommend they obtain commercial O/S support with either Oracle, Red Hat, or maybe SuSE/Novell. Compared to the cost of a downed business, an O/S support arrangement is cheap, cheap, cheap.
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?Sure. You can run Oracle VirtualBox on most Linux, Windows, or Solaris boxes. http://VirtualBox.org for info.
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?No real differences in either environment.
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setupWhat, you didn't try http://eDelivery.oracle.com/linux yet?

Installing Oracle Database 10g on Linux Red Hat 5.1

While inslalling Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) for Linux x86-64 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.1 (Tikanga) we've got an error
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
Failed <<<<
Could we install Oracle Database 10g on Linux Red Hat 5.1 or we need only Oracle Database 11g?

Verify that the redhat-release RPM is installed on your Red Hat system:
rpm -q redhat-release
This RPM is important for RHEL since RHEL AS 4, RHEL AS 3, and RHEL AS 2.1 are Linux releases supported by Oracle. Without this RPM, Oracle 10g OUI won't be able to recognize it as a supported OS. However, the installer of 10g 10.1.0.3 does not recognize RHEL AS 4 as a supported release yet. This means that you will have to edit the /etc/redhat-release file. You also have to change /etc/redhat-release for unsupported releases like Fedora Core and RH9.
I do not recommend to execute "runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs" since this will disable other checks you probably don't want to.
On RHEL AS 4 (for 10g R1), RH9, and FC 1 you have to change the /etc/redhat-release file to make Oracle 10g believe it's running on a supported release.
Regarding RHEL AS 4, the installer for 10g 10.1.0.3 does not recognize RHEL AS 4 as a supported release but 10g R2 OUI does.
To change the /etc/redhat-release file, you can simply copy/paste the following commands:
su - root
cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.orig
cat > /etc/redhat-release << EOF
Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon)
EOF
After you are done with the Oracle10g installation, undo the changes you made to /etc/redhat-release:
su - root
cp /etc/redhat-release.orig /etc/redhat-release

Installing Oracle 9iR2 32 bit on Red Hat 3 AS x86-64

Good day all,
I have troubles installing 9iR2 Oracle 32 bit on Red Hat 3 AS 64 bit. All prerequisites are done (according to http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i) but installation encounters abnormal termination on the stage where you press Install button. The indicator actually goes to 100% at once and then it opens window where I have to input ORACLE_HOME again.
In Installation log it says the following
/opt/oracle/9.2.0/inventory/filemap/./files.map (No such file or directory)
Unable to read the list of homes from the inventory.
Note that Installtion is being made from HDD and I also changed JRE used bu Oracle installer to my own jre on the machine since Oracle jre cannot launch oracle installer on this machine at all.
JRE path settings can be changed in Disk1/install/linux/oraparam.ini file in the following string
JRE_LOCATION=
Looking forward to any ideas you have.

Installing Oracle 8.1.6 on Red Hat Linux 7.0

I have installed Oracle on Win NT quite a few times. I am trying to get my hands dirty with Oracle on Linux.
I have religiously followed all the steps in the installation guide except for changing kernel
parameters and recompiling, as I was not very comfortable with kernel recompilation
and also since I am using it only for testing and not for production, I felt the default
values might suffice. I have installed the software but when I start creating the database
it hangs after sometime saying 'Not connected to Oracle'. I have configured the listener
seperately using netca and tried to create the database using dbassist, but could proceed no further.
Kindly suggest way out.

How to install oracle client on linux_x86_64 on red hat 5

Hi, installing the oracle client on a linux server is new to me as I have always installed the client on windows servers. I have been looking on the OTN site for just the client download but I do not see one and also I have been looking through the installion guide for the 10gr2 database on x86_64 but there is no mention of a client install just speaks to install the database software?
Is there a separate install for just the client or do I have to install the entire rdbms with no database?
Thanks in advance.

HI, I actually was following that exact document and I had downloaded from the link also to get the binaries...The problem I am running into is that when I run the installer it is after the first screen it is throwing an OUI-10203 the specified response file does not exists? It appears as though the installer thinks I am attempting to run an automated installation? Not sure why it is doing this I am clearly trying to run this interactively?
Any thoughts.
