Installation problem on Linux Slackware 7.1 (Oracle 8i)

I try install Oracle 8i Enterprise in Linux Slackware 7.1 (kernel 2.2.16), but the runInstaller don't work.
I read the installation manuals and make all steps, but the runInstaller don't work.
I get this message:
./runInstaller
The Java RunTime Environment was not found at 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 try --> ln -s /usr/local/jre118_v3 /usr/local/java
and --> ln -s /usr/local/jre118_v3 /usr/local/jre
and put in PATH --> /usr/local/jre/bin
Nothing work's.
Somebody can help me ?????
Thank's ....

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.
Oracle 8.1.6 does not work under Red Hat >Linux 7. Yes, that's the problem
that I mentioned in the doc--you get to 80% >and the DBCA crashes and the
Oracle executables die.

still die. The DBCA problem was apparently >a Java issue that is fixed in
the errata. But you're still out of luck >since the exes won't work.

ChrisI then installed Orace on RedHat 6.1 and it worked like a dream.
Maybe you guys should try your luck on an earier version of slackware?
Hope that helped...

    Hi,
    look at sap note 921593 and search for myCluster ,
    read that section following is a part of that note.
    Symptom:
    During the import into a UNICODE system the following error occurs
    (for example in the SAPCLUST.log):
    myCluster (63.2.Imp): 2085: (Warning:) inconsistent field names(source): physical field K1N05 appears as logic K1N5.
    myCluster (63.2.Imp): 2086: (Warning:) further investigation recommended

    `----
    Cause:
    This problem is caused by incorrect data which should have been removed from the source system before the export.
    Solution:
    There are two possible workarounds:
          1. Modify DDL<dbs>.TPL (<dbs> = ADA, DB2, DB4, DB6, IND, MSS, ORA) BEFORE the R3load TSK files are generated;
                  search for the keyword "negdat:" and add "CLU4" and "VER_CLUSTR" to this line.
          2. Modify the TSK file (most probably SAPCLUST.TSK) BEFORE R3load import is (re-)started;
                  search for the lines starting with "D CLU4 I" and "D VER_CLUSTR I" and change the status (i.e. "err" or "xeq") to "ign" or remove the lines.

  • Oracle Patch 11.1.0.6 -- 11.1.0.7  installer problems on linux

    Hello,

    But if i do this i get an error message: "./runInstaller: line 197: /home/oracle/patch: Datei oder Verzeichnis nicht gefunden" That means in english "File or Folder not found".
    On line 197 i've found: $CMDDIR/install/.oui $*
    What is the problem? What do i wrong?
    I use RHEL 5!
    Edited by: user6368351 on 08.10.2009 14:20

    Hello,
    i have done an upgrade from 10.2.0.4 to 11.1.0.6. There was no problem and 11.1.0.6 works right now. But i can't run the installer for the 11.1.0.7 patchset.
    EDIT:
    If i run the installer with root, so i get the typical message:
    Oracle Universal Installer wird gestartet...

    This means, i have to run the installer with an oracle user.
    But ich I will run it with oracle rights, the installer will not run.

  • Re:oracle 8.1.6 release 2 post installation problem  on linux

    hi,
    While installing oracle 8.1.6, the one of the optional tool database configuration assistant failed.(DBCA-00047 : unable to create destination directories).
    so i tried to create database manually.
    so i copied init.ora file as initdemo.ora and edited the file as follows:
    db_name=demo
    controlfiles=('/disk1/oradata/demo/system01.dbf','/disk2/oradata/demo/system02.dbf')
    cdump=/disk1/oradata/demo/cdump
    bdump=/disk1/oradata/demo/bdump
    udump=/disk1/oradata/demo/udump
    then i saved the file.
    After that i created a script for database creation as "demo.sql" to create database at nomount stage.
    i.e,
    create database demo
    logfile group1('/disk1/oradata/demo/log1.log',/disk2/oradata/demo/log2.log') size 1000k
    group2('/disk1/oradata/demo/log3.log',/disk2/oradata/demo/log4.log') size 1000k
    controlfile reuse;
    and saved it.
    I gave the following commonds at the prompt:
    $export $ORACLE_SID=demo
    $svrmgrl
    SVRMGR>connect internal
    connected.
    SVRMGR>startup nomount
    here i got stuck up as it is not getting starting the instance.
    so i tried in SQLPLUS mode
    $sqlplus
    username/password: sys/oracle as sysdba
    Instance is idle.
    SQL>startup nomount
    LRM-00109 couldnot open parameter file.
    ORA-01078 failure in processing system parameters.
    so can you tell me where iam going wrong.

    The problem is you did not provide a pfile location for the parameter file. Please refer to the sample shell script below where it makes the right calls:
    #!/bin/sh

    export ORACLE_SID
    /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/svrmgrl << EOF
    spool /u01/app/oracle/admin/test/create/crdb1.log
    connect internal

  • HTML DB 10g installation problem on linux HTTP-503 ORA-604

    I have a problem after the installation of HTML DB from the linux 10g R2 companion image.
    I installed HTML DB and HTTP server in one go, on an new system that only has the default orcl database installed. I run Red Hat enterprise linux on a x86_64 system.
    The HTML DB installation took a long time, but gave no errors.
    When I access the http://hostname:7777/pls/htmldb url I get an “This server is temporarily unable to service your request due to maintenance downtime or capacity problems. Please try again later.”-error.
    But :7777 works fine and give me the http server default page.
    In my Apache error log I see the following errors:
    [Thu Dec  8 13:28:42 2005] [error] [client 10.11.121.20] [ecid: 1134048522:10.14.66.23:28193:0:1,0] mod_plsql: /pls/htmldb/htmldb HTTP-503 ORA-604
    I looked at several internet sources, played with my marvel.conf and my dads.conf but to no avail. My oracle home is different from my html db home. There is no ./network/admin/tnsnames.ora in my HTML_DB _HOME. Should there be? One solution in the faq even told me to copy the htmldb tnsnames.ora over my db tnsnames.ora, but the installation did not create one for me.
    When should I use a dads.conf instead of marvel.conf? I don't understand the need for this second file. I tried to also use it, because some solutions and the post-installation instructions hinted on doing it. But then I get a different error in the logs about a double DAD.
    When I login through sqlplus in the orcl database with the HTMLDB_PUBLIC_USER and my password (that was created during the installation) it works, but I don't see any tables (yet?). So the account is not locked. But should I see some tables when I do “select table_name from user_tables; ?
    I probably missing something obvious here, but I'm a bit of a oracle newby.
    Any help is appreciated,
    Erik

    Thanks Diemar,
    It worked.
    I stopped all oracle process and services.
    I then logged out and in again as oracle to see if the unset stuck.
    I then started my listener, databases, isqlnet and em.
    I then started the httpd with:
    ${HTMLDB_HOME}/opmn/bin/opmnctl start
    opmnctl: opmn started
    ${HTMLDB_HOME}/opmn/bin/opmnctl startproc
    this still gave some errors and the httpd was not started:
    ias-component=HTTP_Server
    opmnctl: starting opmn managed processes...
    ================================================================================opmn id=aberlour.uni.mdx.ac.uk:6200

    I then added the PlsqlNLSLanguage line back into the marvel.conf
    which now looks:
    AddType text/xml xbl
    AddType text/x-component htc
    Alias /i/ /mdx/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/http/Apache/Apache/images/

    PlsqlAuthenticationMode Basic

    PlsqlDefaultPage htmldb
    PlsqlDatabasePassword @BWIuxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxid4Y4t8b9g==
    Allow from all
    </Location>
    and I started the http again, and it works fine.
    Problem solved. I will try to fine tune it so I'll get the basic LANG setting back in linux but without the .UTF-8 postfix.
    thanks for your help,
    Erik

  • Oracle10g Installation problem on Linux with DHCP IP

    Hi,
    I am new to Oracle Products, I have tried to install Oracle 10G on Linux with DHCP IP.
    I got the following warning while installing even though I have loopback interface configured.
    Checking Network Configuration requirements ...
    Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
    Problem: The install has detected that the primary IP address of the system is DHCP-assigned.
    Recommendation: Oracle supports installations on systems with DHCP-assigned public IP addresses. However, the primary network interface on the system should be configured with a static IP address in order for the Oracle Software to function properly. See the Installation Guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP.
    Please help me in resolving this problem or Can I ignore this message?

    This warning means it is not recommended to install Oracle 10g on a DHCP assigned IP address. It could work, but you won't be able to configure Enterprise Manager, since this tool requires a fixed IP address. If possible, have the IP address fixed.
