Install Oracle 8i R2 on Mandrake 7.1

Hi,
I tried to install 8i R2 on mandrake 7.1.
My problem is after run ./runInstaller, I could see Oracle Universal Installer. Even though I click on 'Next' button, it doesn't move at all. It looks like no button on installer is working.
Anyone knows solution for this problem?
Thanks,

FIrst, make sure you ahve the proper users/groups set up and the appropriate permissions for each. Next, run, don't walk, to
http://www.arsdigita.com/ad-training/acs-install/oracle
This guide is excellent and I followed all of it except the date formatting bits. Also, try the oracle and database installations under Gnome and not KDE- this worked for me for some reason.
Good luck!

How to install oracle 9i on linux mandrake 8???????????

Hi,
This is my configuration : Linux Mandrake 8.0 & Oracle 9i.

I saw the doc on "www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.html" but my problem is always here.
I didn't install the JDK.....is it ok???
I need download the JDK????
Which version???
I don't know.

I am installing 9i r2 on Mandrake 8.1 and have followed your instruction (as best I could) but I am having installation problems.
1. The fonts for JAVA are not being read correctly, but the install does begin. I am not installing from the console but using VNC to get to my little server.
2. Everything goes fine until I get the error "can't write to file ...jtc.h". I have tried to change permission ( chown 777) on file with no luck.
Exception String: Error in writing to file /data/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/javavm/jahome/jtc.h
3. After that error, I then continue to get error throughout the install, until I just cancel
4. Do I have to make the set_shmmax change...I previously had 8.1.7 installed and had made a kernal memory change?
5. I did not change the "binutils"
Thanks for your help

Problem install Oracle 8i (8.1.7) on Linux Mandrake 8.1

Hello,
I want to install Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition (8.1.7) on a Linux Server (distribution : Mandrake 8.1).
I do all the task execpt the kernel configuration :
- swap 273Mo + a temprorary file swap 300Mo
- glibx 2.1 installation (compatibility from Red Hat 6.2 and glibc 2.1 compatibility SDK) -> i have glic2.2
- install of JDK 1.1.8 from blackdown.org
- 4 directories created as described in the article "Installing Oracle8i on red hat linux 7.1/7.2 (http://www.idevelopment.info/data/DBA_tips/Linux/LINUX_2.shtml)
- add groups oinstall, dba, oper
- add user oracle
- permission changed on the directories
- environnement variables for the oracle user
When i launch the command ./runInstall as oracle user and from the directory /usr/src/Disk1 (i decompress linux81701.tar in the directory /usr/src) in XTerm window, there's no GUI that appear, and in the XTerm window, there's no error.
I think i don't set the good value to the DISPLAY variable.
DISPLAY=SRV-LINX1:0.0
where SRV-LINX1 is the name of my server. In th documentation, they say DISPLAY=<Any X-Windows Host>:0.0
Can you help me.
Thanks.
Best regards
Raphael KISTER

Benny,
cd to the .../ctx/lib directory and check the ORACLE_HOME at the type of that file. Fix the path in the file or make sure that it's set propertly in the env of that shell.
Type make -f ins_ctx.mk
Linking should complete w/out error messages in shell, then tell Oracle Installer to ignore.
This worked for me on RH 7.2, see http://www.alsutton.com/oracle_install.html for more details, or reference the text below.
An error may occur towards the end of the install on ${ORACLE_HOME}/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk, to fix this I did the following;
1. Start a new shell
2. Type cd ${ORACLE_HOME}/ctx/lib
3. Type vi ins_ctx.mk
4. Inser a line at the top of the makefile which sets the ORACLE_HOME to the correct value. (Or set the ORACLE_HOME environment variable to the correct value).
5. Save the file and close vi
6. Type make -f ins_ctx.mk
Once the make is complete tell the Oracle install procedure to ignore the error.

Probleme to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1

Hi,
I have some problem to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1.
I log on a non root user and launch "./runInstaller" but nothing happens. It's only written "please wait"...
I see on the Oracle site that I must use glibc 2.1 but only if Oracle is already installed? So if you could give me some indications?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have also the same problem : when I launch the program "./runInstaller", nothing appears.
However, I thought I found a good solution on a forum, but it doesn't run.
The explication is given at the following address :
http://colalug.org/ml-archive/0210/msg00051.html
The only point where I'm not sure is when it's said to use a specific library in the "LINUX STUFF" section. They are using glibc2.1 and I'm using glibc2.3.
I have also changed the "ASSUME_KERNEL" variable to the version of my kernel, that's 2.4.21.
What are your suggestions ?
Thanks to give me an answer.

Problem Installing oracle 9iAS in Mandrake Linux 8.1

1.When iam trying to install Oracle 9iAS in Mandrake linux 8.1 iam getting the
below error. Pls help me out.

2.Does Orale 9iAS have Orace Database Server

I don't really understand why you are using almost 6 years old distribution (release date 2002/09/30).
What's the sense? Time has changed and of course SW included in this distro has changed (significantly) and especially glibc.
10g R1 is certified for RH EL 2.1. When I compare version of packages (RH 8 vs RHEL 2.1) it could be possible (easily) to install on RH 8. For 10g R2 you need defintely upgrade at least glibc* packages.

Hi johnny,
You should first check the hosts file to see if the correct hostname and the IP address are shown. You can also check if the "hostname" command returns the correct result. If everything looks good so far, then next check if command "nslookup" returns the correct IP address. If the nslookup <hostname> command returns error, you will need to talk to the Domain Name Server (DNS) administrator to correct this network configuration problem.

Error while installing oracle 9i(9.2.0.1.0) on Red Hat Linux 8

hi
friends,
i'm getting error while installing Oracle 9i(9.2.0.1.0). this eror was came when linking process was going on. Error is as follow.
"Error in invoking target install of make file"

pls. help me what to do?
Dharmesh

See this :
I saw this error only in connection with Oracle 9i (9.0.1) installation.
Edit the file $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh and change the following line (people have sent me emails pointing out that this also works for Mandrake 8.1 and Mandrake 8.2):
LD_SELF_CONTAINED="-z defs"
to read:
LD_SELF_CONTAINED=""
Then run the script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh as the user "oracle" and not as the user "root". Also make sure you have all the Oracle environments set! (I got so many emails because people were not doing this)
$ su - oracle
$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh
Created /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/lib/libclntst9.a
$
After that hit retry in the error popup. This always worked for me.
(I was told that this also works for SuSE 8.0.)
Here is Oracle's official solution for Oracle 9iR1 or 9iR1 iAS on RedHat 2.1 Advanced Server:

Installing Oracle 8.0.5 on RedHat 7.0

Has anyone encountered problems installing Oracle 8.0.5 on Redhat 7.0. RedHat 6.2 installation works.

<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by david walker ([email protected]):
Has anyone encountered problems installing Oracle 8.0.5 on Redhat 7.0. RedHat 6.2 installation works.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Should be OK. I was running that combination for a while and can't recall any serious issues during install.
I am currently running 8.0.5.1 on a Mandrake 7.2 PC. The install was pretty straightforward :
- Install compatability RPMs (I used slightly higher versioned RPMs than listed in the Oracle documentation);
- Install 8.0.5.1 s/w;
- Apply Oracle patch;
- Create dbs;
- Configure listener;
- Create the startup/shutdown rc script and links.
That's about it for the installation.
I haven't put the database to much use yet, so there may be other issues ahead :)
Oh, one thing to note on that last point is that you should have a look at how the /etc/rc.d/rc file operates.
Under Mandrake 7.2 it will look for a file in /var/lock/subsystem that has the same name as the /etc/init.d script before running the stop script correctly.
This differs slightly from what I see in the *8.1.7* documentation, so might be due to a difference between mandrake and the other distributions.
FWIW here is my /etc/init.d/oracle file.
#!/bin/sh
# chkconfig: 345 99 10
# description: Oracle databases
# Source function library.
. /etc/init.d/functions

I just wanted to chime in here and say that I experienced exactly
the same problems as Fred, whilst trying to install 8.0.5 onto
Mandrake Linux 6.
Any suggestions much appreciated.

HELP! Can not install Oracle 8.1.5 w/ RedHat 6.1!

I can not get Oracle 8.1.5 to install onto Linux RedHat 6.1. The
Oracle installation script generates several errors. I have
tried several attempts, using different options, but they all
generate errors.
Please help. The Oracle Installation scripts appear to be very
buggy... or perhaps they are incompatible with the standard
RedHat 6.1 release. Either way, it is very frustrating.
I have documented one of my (failed) installation attempts below.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom?
I am installing Oracle onto a Dell Latitude CPi PC w/ 128MB RAM,
a 366MHz Pentium II, and RedHat 6.1 (using the standard Linux
2.2.12-2 kernel). RedHat was installed using the standard "Gnome
Workstation" configuration.
The Oralce CD is labeled:
"Oralce 8i Enterprise Edition
Release 8.1.5
for Linux
(c) Oracle Corporation 1999"
I got this CD about one week ago at Oracle OpenWorld '99 in Los
Angeles... it should be their "latest & greatest" version so far.
1. Pre-Installation and ./runInstall
I created an "oracle" Unix account w/ groups "oinstall" (the
primary group) and "dba" (a secondary group).
I created directories /u01 through /u04, belonging to oracle.
I setup .cshrc and sourced it, containing:
umask 022
setenv DISPLAY `hostname`:0
xhost +
setenv ORACLE_BASE /u01/app/oracle
setenv ORACLE_HOME ${ORACLE_BASE}/product/8.1.5
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest
setenv PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
setenv NLS_LANG US7ASCII
I downloaded jre116_v5 and installed to /usr/local/jre.
Finally, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /mnt/cdrom
./runInstall
Problem: I got the error (from ./runInstall):
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre.
Please wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address
Workaround: Executed the following commands instead:
cd /mnt/cdrom/install/linux
./runIns.sh
3. runIns.sh and root.sh
I selected the following options (from ./runIns.sh):
Source: /mnt/cdrom/stage/products.jar
Destination: /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.5.0.0
Typical (585MB)
Installable Components: Oralce Intelligent Agent 8.1.5.0.0
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Directory for Database Files: /u02
Then (when instructed by ./runIns.sh), I attempted to execute
(from the
"root" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
./root.sh
Problem: I got the error:
"bash: ./root.sh: Permission denied"
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x root.sh
./root.sh
5. Configuration Tools
The Oracle Installer (./runIns.sh) attempted to execute:
A. Net8 Configuration Agent
B. Oracle Database Configuration Agent
Problem: The "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" failed with
the following error message:
"One or more tools have failed. It is recommended but not
required that these tools succeed for this installation.
You can now select these tools, read its details to examine
why they have failed, fix those problems, and retry them.
Or, you can click "Next" to continue."
When I selected the "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" for
more info, I got the following additional details (as the cause
of the error):
"A required command line argument is missing."
The log file
"/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions.log" recorded:
"Command which is being spawned is /usr/local/jre/bin/jre

Workaround: There is obviously nothing I can do to fix this
problem. It appears to be an internal bug in ./runIns.sh.
Therefore, I selected "Next" and executed "dbassist" directly.
6. dbassist
I executed:
dbassist
Problem: I got the following error:
"JNLS Execution:oracle.ntpg.jnls.JNLSException
Unable to find any National Character Sets. Please
check your Oracle installation."
Workaround: Press "OK" and ignore the error.
7. dbassist (cont.)
I selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Copy existing database files from the CD
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Problem: I got the following error:
"CD-ROM drive not detected on this system.
Database not created."
(Note: I've been running the installation scripts from the
CDROM drive this entire time. "df" shows the CDROM drive
mounted on /mnt/cdrom. "ls /mnt/cdrom" works too.)
Workaround: Abort (which generated the additional error: "Unable
to create database. DBCA-00003: No CD-ROM drive detected.") and
run dbassist again, this time using different parameters.
8. dbassist, again
I executed "dbassist" again and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and iM demos
Global Database Name: cprtest2.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest2
Create database now
Problem: I got the following error:
"ORA-01012: not logged on"
Workaround: Try, try again.
9. dbassist, one last time
Executed "dbassist" once more and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and interMedia
demos
Global Database Name: cprtest3.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest3
Output creation script
Then, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/install
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest3
./sqlcprtest3.sh
Problem: I got the following output:
"Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.5.0.0 - Production

Workaround: Beats me.
10. sqlplus
I attempted to execute sqlplus, but got the following error
message:
"/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus: Permission denied."
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus
sqlplus
I gave up for now... there were just too many things wrong with
this installation, starting with the very first command I was
supposed to execute (./runInstaller).
I can't fathom why Oracle's installation script has so many bugs.
Am I just doing something terribly wrong?
Please help.

I'm using enlightenment version 0.15.5-41, which is more recent
than the 0.15.5-37 version (containing the Oracle installer
patch) that you recommended. Unfortunately, it fails when using
this version.
I also tried installing Oracle using twm, with enlightenment
disabled. This didn't help either.
Furthermore, the errors that I'm encountering in the OUI are
not just toward the end of the installation. They happen from
the very beginning, right after I enter "./runInstall", and
continue every step of the way.

Install Oracle 8.1.7 on Sun 5.7 0899

Can somebody help me with the following problem ?
When installing Oracle 8.1.7 , i found the error message
"Error in invoking target install of makefile /u01/app/product/817/plsal/lib/ins_plsql.mk"
Does that error come from the swap space ? because i saw the error log like this "...: java.io.IOException: Not enough space"
Thank!

I have seen this before.
Quick Fix:
The problem with files still named xxxxxO is caused by the install. Sometimes it
works to just copy the file in this case:
$cp lsnrctlO lsnrctl
There are probably other files that were not renamed by the install:
Finally, the listener can run! yipee.. :)
It failed to run because there're some file 'missing'.
I told u before, lsnrctl didn't exist in my box. Well, I found that not only lnsrctl.
There're three more files needed to be renamed. So, total in the list are
dbsnmp, lsnrctl, tnslsnr, and oratclsh.
All of them still have their odd xxxxO name (I should have known it from
the start).
Once I copied all the file to their 'proper' name, the listener can start
successfully. (Though i think the listener need only lsnrctl and tnslsnr,
i still renamed them all).
But I wonder, why does the installer not rename those files?
I found that those file were created normally during installation, until
i run setup_stubs.sh.
Is there any bug on setup_stubs.sh? Why you didn't experience it as I did?
However, the most important things is, the database running well :)
