Installation on Linux Slackware 7.1.0

I have this problem with the Oracle installer in Slackware 7.1.0. I've tried oracle 8.1.5 and 8.1.6.
The installer hangs when trying to run the database configuration so i end up with a working oracle install except that i don't have a system database.
Anyone seen this before or know what to do about it?

Hello!
I also tried to install Oracle 8.1.6.1 (after giving up the 8.0.5 installation due to segmentation faults all over..), it also failed.
After trying to install Oracle 8.1.6.1 on RedHat 7.0 and it still crashed, i sent a mail to some guru that wrote the oracle-how-to document for redhat, here is what he replied.
My guess is that this also applies to the newest slackware version, because i presume that slackware 7.0 also use the newest glibc libraries;
Thanks for the feedback.

Maybe you guys should try your luck on an earier version of slackware?

Oracle 816 on linux slackware 7.0

hi,
i have a problem while installing 816 on linux slackware 7.0. i have followed all the install instructions... but every time that it gets to the "Oracle Database Configuration Assistant" it just hangs. why would it do this??
when i terminate the installation and restart it, the installed products show the database as installed. i have not actually tested this (i want to use php on apache to integrate with the dbase) but it shows that the dbase is installed. i wish to do a complete 100% install without any hassles. can anyone give me some advice on how to get past the problem i am experiencing.

I've made the links as speicified but it still didn't work ! It displayed Java exception errors and then hanged up when the database was being created. May someone really tried it out himself/herself before posting any so-called "solution" !

OBIEE 11g upgrade wizard & installation on linux 64bit

Hi,
Is it that on Linux 64 bit machine, i should install OBIEE 11g in "Software Only" mode, only then upgrade wizard works correctly, if i need to do "Software Only" should i be installing weblogic server independently? or at high level what are steps to be followed.
Thanks,
Sree

Hi Sree,
What you are mentioning here is relevant for Windows 64 bits environment where you have to install the software only after installing web logic standalone.
The installer for Linux 64bit will install all the components for you except of course the RCU that you need to downlaod and install first.
Please refer to this link for more details about the installation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/bi.1111/e10539/c4_installing.htm#CIHDJGIH
NB: Devlopement tools (Admin tool or catalog manager..) don't exisit for Linux, so you have to use windows for development

Cannot find the installer"server/Linux 64/DisK.. Erron on Informatica 8.6.1

Hi Friends,
I am trying to install Power Centre Informatica 8.6.1 (64 bit) on RHEL 5.4 (64 bit) and while invoking the installer i am getting the following error:
cannot find the installer "server/Linux 64/Disk1/Instdata/VM/install.bin
Please let me know the fix.
Regards,
DB

Hi,
This is the data mining forum so we don't have anything to offer for Informatica installation issues.
I am not sure what forum to recommend given Informatica is not an Oracle product.
You could try the data base general forum:

Thanks, Mark
