  • Installation of Oracle EBusiness Suite 11i Release 10.2 on Red Hat Linux

    Hello there,
    It would be great if someone can help me with these questions
    1. Which version of Red Hat Linux is suitable for installation of Oracle EBusiness Suite 11i Release 10.2.
    2. I am downloading the EBS files from eDelivery site on my machine (Windows based). These are Zip files. How would these be usable on Linux machine?
    3. Do I need stuff like MKS Toolkit on Linux? We tried installing on Windows 2003 server but had to abandon because we don't have MKS Toolkit. Is there some such pre-requisite on Linux?
    Thank you.
    Rahul

    Copy all zip files to say /data/stage11i then unzip all files (as root) the process will create the correct file structure, you do not need to run adautostge.pl then in a terminal screen go to /data/stage11i/Disk1/rapidwiz and then type ./rapidwiz the installation wizard then guides you through the rest of the way. Run raoidwiz as root if you need multi user or for the demo single user run rapidwiz as oracle. Make sure you have created user and group for oracle and applmgr, also make those changes in the wizard it often defaults to say user oravis group dba. In linux you should have created localhost.localdomain sometimes the eth0 does not start, stop it in the device manager and then reactivate. Hope that helps.

  • Failed Installation of Oracle8i on Red Hat Linux 7.0

    Hi,
    I have successfully installed Oracle8i(8.1.6) Enterprise edition on Red Hat Linux 7.0 but while running the Database Configuration Assistant, it stops at the database initialization portion. I suspect the initmig8i.ora file is causing the problem. I have followed the installation guide very closely and the SID is mig8i. What might be the problem causing it to stop? Now, I can't connect to database.

    Richard,
    It's a glib problem. 8i uses the glib 2.1 libraries, while RH7 uses the 2.2. There is a patch available from oracle support, or you can find a solution that has worked for me twice on the otn discussion forum.

  • Installation of OracleAS 10g on Red Hat Linux ES 3.0

    Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
    Copy from OTN Note
    Start
    Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support
    o     Accept the default.
    13.     Time Zone Selection
    o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
    14.     Set Root Password
    o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.
    15.     Package Group Selection
    o     Select only the package sets shown here. Leave all others unselected.
    o     Desktop
    - X Window System
    - Gnome
    - KDE
    - See my comments in the RHES 2.1 section regarding choice of GUI.
    o     Applications
    - Editors
    - Graphical Internet
    o     Servers
    - Do not select anything in this group.
    o     Development

    - Administration Tools
    o     Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    - Do not select anything in this group.
    o     Miscellaneous
    - Legacy Software Development
    o     Click on Next to proceed.
    16.     About to Install
    o     Click on Next.
    17.     Installing Packages
    o     Software will be copied to the hard disk and installed. Change disks as prompted, and click on Next when the installation is complete.
    18.     Graphical Interface (X) Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults unless the installer does not recognize your video card. If your video card is not recognized, you will not be able to continue.
    19.     Monitor Configuration
    o     Accept the default if the installer correctly identifies your monitor. Otherwise, select a compatible monitor from the list.
    20.     Customize Graphical Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults.
    21.     Congratulations
    o     Remove the installation media from the system, and click on Next.
    22.     The system automatically reboots and presents a new welcome screen.
    o     Click on Next.
    23.     License Agreement
    o     Read the license agreement. If you agree to the terms, select Yes, I agree to the License Agreement and click on Next.
    24.     Date and Time
    o     Set the Date and Time.
    o     If you want to use an NTP server (recommended), select Enable Network Time Protocol and enter the name of the NTP server.
    25.     User Account
    o     Create an account for yourself.
    o     Do not create an account for oracle at this time. Creating the oracle account is covered later in this section.
    26.     Red Hat Network
    o     If you want to use or activate your Red Hat Network account now, accept the default, click on Next, and follow the product activation instructions that accompanied your Red Hat product.
    27.     Additional CDs
    o     Click on Next.
    28.     Finish Setup
    o     Click on Next.
    29.     A graphical login screen appears.
    30.     Congratulations! Your Linux software is now installed.

    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

  • BI 4.1 installation in  Red hat Linux 6.5

    Hi Experts,
    we are planning to have one cluster environment in Red hat Linux 6.5.

    2) 1 server with Websphere as a web application server.
    From the last two years i am completely working on windows environment. hence i would like to know few details about installing BI 4.1 in RHL 6.5.
    What are the prerequisites to install Bi 4.1 in RHL 6.5, Even though it mentioned in installation guides, i would request someone to share there real time expertise.
    I would like to have split deployment in the webapplication server ( Websphere ).I have performed the split deployement with ref of the below document which was created by James Rapp Improving the User Experience in SAP BI Platform - BI 4.1 and Apache 2.4 Supplement
            it completely talks about tomcat+ Apache.
    is it possible to perform the websphere + Apache split deployment.
    Kindly share your expertise.

    Hi Prasad,
    Below are my thoughts on your queries.
    1. Check Installing SAP BI 4.1 SP01 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.x Step-by-step. This is an amazing blog by Brian. Hope you find it useful.
    2. You cannot do a split deployment with Apache and Websphere. However you can do it with IHS (Web server provided by IBM) plus websphere. If you are using Websphere Network deployment version, IHS must be installed by default. For performing the split deployment, check https://websmp206.sap-ag.de/~sapidb/011000358700000171102014E/sbo41sp3_bip_wapd_unix_en.pdf See section 4.4.2 on page 27
    Hope it helps.
    Regards
    Chinmaya

  • Oracle 9i installation on Red Hat Linux 9 URGENT

    hi,
    I live in london, I have tried a lot to install Oracle 9i Enterprise edition on Red Hat Linux 9, but couldn't do it, can any one help me to install it, I am ready to pay and visit any place in london for that purpose in the evening, if any one can help my mobiel number 07832 077672
    best regards

    If you are only trying to learn, I would recommend either Fedora FC4 or OpenSuSE 10, and I would recommend installing ORacle Express Edition if you do not need advanced Oracle stuff (or you are not learning for OCP).
    Again, use Werner's excellent site - http://www.puschitz.com or Ivan Kartik's site - http://ivan.kartik.sk/oracle/install_ora9_fedora.html to get good instruciton on installation.
    If you want a free version that is as close to a supported Linux as legally possible, consider using WhiteBoxLinux.org, TaoLinux.org or CentOS.org linux. These are clones of RedHat Enterprise (the one that is supported). Or you could contact Novell.com and ask for an evaluation kit for SLES9.

  • Oracle 10g Installation on Red Hat Linux

    Hi
    I am trying to install Oracle 10g (Downloaded from Oracle Site) in a Linux Installation. I have checked with the following command about the Linux Version
    # cat /etc/issue and the output is :
    Red Hat Linux Release 7.1 (Seawolf)
    Kernel 2.4.2-2 on an i686
    Then I am giving #uname -r and the output is
    2.4.2-2
    Now Oracle Installation Guide for 10g for Linux is saying that
    if the errata level is less than 25 on x86 system then install latest Kernel Updates.
    Please Let me know from where I can get the Latest Kernel Updates appropriately and what I need to do to put that patch into Linux so that I can smoothly install the Oracle 10g.
    Thanks and regards.
    Keshav Tripathy

    Jer is absolutely right.... just changing the values in oraparm.ini to reflect your kernel distribution will work for you.
    For example the file contains:
    [Certified Versions]
    Linux=redhat-2.1,UnitedLinux-1.0,redhat-3
    now to add your linux into it just check your version by issuing the command #uname -r
    in my case the output was "2.4.20-8smp". I just appended redhat before this value and entered in the oraparm.ini file.
    The new ini file looks like:
    [Certified Versions]
    Linux=redhat-2.1,UnitedLinux-1.0,redhat-3,redhat-2.4.20-8smp
    [Linux-redhat-2.4.20-8smp-optional]
    TEMP_SPACE=80
    SWAP_SPACE=150
    MIN_DISPLAY_COLORS=256
    Now you are all set to install. I assume that all other pre-requisites have been fulfilled.
    Thanks & Regards,

  • Installation Error with 10.1.3.1 on Red Hat Linux 4

    Hi,

    Thanks in advance for the help,

    Hi Nora,
    Just read pre-install steps well. I think you 're missing a couple of libraries at your OS.
    So the only thing as I mentioned check pre-install steps or download pre-install script for AS9.0.4
    https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/f?p=130:14:4077412560366893878::::p14_database_id,p14_docid,p14_show_header,p14_show_help,p14_black_frame,p14_font:NOT,270683.1,1,1,1,helvetica
    The output will help you to determine what you are missing.
    one more thing check your ENV & swap
    Hear from you & regards,

  • 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.

  • 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

    I'm having the same exact problem. The link you have provided
    seems to be a bad link. I would really appreciate it alot if you
    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.

  • 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
    Please try: http://www3.sympatico.ca/arothmel/oracle/817.html
    Still evolving. Feedback welcome :)

  • 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.
