Installer fails to install DB Config Assistant

This is a beginner question.
At the very end of the installation of Oracle 8.1.5 on Suse 6.2
the installation of ORACLE DATABASE CONFIGURATION ASSISTANT fails
with the message:
"Unable to initialize threads. cannot find JAVA/LANG/THREAD.
Could not create Java VM."
What did I miss/not do correct - how can I solve this problem ??

: the installation of ORACLE DATABASE CONFIGURATION ASSISTANT
fails
: with the message:
: "Unable to initialize threads. cannot find JAVA/LANG/THREAD.
: Could not create Java VM."
I had the same problem with 8i on RedHat 6.0.
: What did I miss/not do correct - how can I solve this problem
The solution I found was a bit of a hack -- I hope someone else
can offer a better answer.
The dbassist (and probably others) shell script plays around
with the CLASSPATH environment variable and the problem is that
it sets it to the lib directory (/usr/local/jdk/lib on my box at
home) rather than the zip file (/usr/local/jdk/lib/classes.zip).
I ended up editing the shell script to force it to use the zip
file which is not terribly elegant but it does work.

    Hello,
    you are facing bug 3610052, on Windows platforms you must not install EM into a directory starting with 'u'. This is interpreted as unicode encode and throws 'Malformed encoding' error message.

  • Every PATCH installation fails after installing Windows Updates

    Hello,
    I want to report an issue which I think is a Windows bug introduced by one of the Windows updates (unfortunately I wasn't able to find out which one of them).
    Here is the test case:
    1. install a fresh copy of Windows on a test machine
    2. install all available Windows Updates (so the system is up to date)
    3. create a sample MSI installer which only installs some dummy files (let's say Product Version 1.0.0) and host it on a web server
    4. install the MSI from the online location using a command line like this:
    msiexec /i http://server/share/package.msi
    5. create a .MSP patch (e.g. v1.0.1) which only adds a new file to v1.0.0
    6. install the v1.0.1 patch
    RESULT: the patch installation fails with the following error message: "The filename , directory name , or volume label syntax is incorrect"
    NOTES:
    1. the issue was replicated on Windows 7 and 8 machines UP TO DATE
    2. the issue is not replicated on a fresh installation of Windows without Updates applied
    Is there anyone aware of what could cause this error? Once again the patch installation fails only on Windows machines with the latest Updates installed.
    Thx,
    Daniel

  • Grub from arch installer fails to install

    Using the pre-release core (i686) iso 2011.03.23 because the standard iso doesn't have the drivers to support my wireless device (though neither seems to have a driver for the wired interface, interestingly)
    When at the 'Install Bootloader' step, it attempts to build the GRUB device map, then the arch installer quits, printing this at the bottom along with a console prompt:
    ERROR: device_is_raid needs a blockdevice as $1 ( given)
    Attempted to then run 'grub-install' from said console as follows:
    [root@archiso ~]# grub-install /dev/sda --root-directory=/mnt
    Probing devices to guess BIOS drives. This may take a long time.
    The file /mnt/boot/grub/stage1 not read correctly/
    [root@archiso ~]#
    I found I had to pass the root-directory argument, as otherwise it couldn't find the stage1 file.
    This hard disk is not using raid in any way, and for reference has a partition layout as follows
    /dev/sda1    ntfs as PQSERVICE
    /dev/sda2    ntfs as SYSTEM RESERVED
    /dev/sda3    ntfs as Acer
    /dev/sda4    extended partition containing:
    /dev/sda5    ext3 as /
    /dev/sda6    swap
    The first three were already present on the disk with Windows 7, which incidentally continues to boot without issue. The only modification made was to shrink the Acer (aka C:\) partiton with GParted to make room for Arch.
    Would rather use GRUB than other bootloaders unless unavoidable.
    Thanks for any help offered.

    Gremnon wrote:Out of habit, I always use the Beginners Guide, and always use GParted to prepare the partitions in advance. Bad blood between me and Parted Magic writes it out of the book entirely.
    Will try again with a boot partition included, but I don't see why it would make any difference.
    Any particular reason for ext3 over ext2 for /boot?
    I don't see why it would make a difference either, but my install failed until I did it. Ext3 is more robust than Ext2, so if your system crashes there's a better chance of it not being hosed. I don't think it's a big deal either way, but I feel safer with Ext3.

  • Adobe Installer fails to install CS4 11.0.2 update

    Hi,
    I have a problem with updating photoshop CS4 to 11.0.2 under Windows 7.  The installer seems to do the installation but the version number on the splash screen stays at 11.0.1 AND the Adobe updater keeps telling me that I need to install 11.0.2.
    I have tried downloading the update directly and installing it with no success.  I have tried to run the updater exe as administrator and all I get is a report that the upgrade has already been installed, but the version number reported by photoshop is still 11.0.1.
    Also - I have tried running the update from within photoshop with administrator rights and it still does not work.  There is no instance of bridge running in background (I have checked the processes list).
    I have searched the threads here but there does not seem to be an answer.
    Any suggestions anyone?

    Okay, so my next question is:  Do you have write access to the Photoshop installation folder tree(s)?
    Even though you may be an administrator on your computer, Windows 7 does not normally grant you administrative privileges.  Through the feature called UAC (User Access Control) your privileges can be temporarily elevated.  It is possible that this process was not invoked properly during the initial Photoshop installation, and thus the installation area and/or registry protections have not been updated so that the latest Photoshop installer can change things successfully.
    You can try temporarily lowering the UAC level and see if the updater can complete its task.
    1.  Click Start, and type UAC into the search box.
    2.  When Change user account control settings comes up, click it.
    3.  Make note of the current setting, then lower the setting to "Never notify". At the "Never notify" setting you are granted administrator privileges full time.
    4.  This normally requires a reboot.  Do so.
    5.  Try the Photoshop 11.0.2 update again.
    6.  Return UAC settings to default (recommended).

  • Receiving the error Installation Failed when installing After Effects

    I tried several times to download AE both through a trial of Creative Cloud and the "Download Now" button under the product.  One time the download got to 99% and then abruptly quit.  I'm on a Mac using OS 10.6. I have used PS, Illustrator and Indesign rather heavily for several years but have never tried AE.  I wanted to try it and also the Creative Cloud at the same time.
    It doesn't look very promising to me. Hope you get yours working.

    I have branched this out to a new discussion.  I would recommend you start with downloading and attempting the installation of the trial of After Effects.  You can locate the trial at http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=after_effects.  If you are able to successfully install the software then please choose the option to License this Software after it is installed as a trial.  You will then want to enter your Adobe ID tied to your Creative Cloud subscription.
    If you continue to experience difficulties then you will want to utilize the Adobe Support Advisor - http://www.adobe.com/support/loganalyzer/ to automatically review your installation logs.  Alternatly, or if you do not receive an actionable result, you may want to review the installation logs manually to determine the source of your difficulties.  You can locate steps on how to accomplish this at Troubleshoot with install logs | CS5, CS5.5, CS6 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cs5-cs5.html.

    thanks
    OS is: CentOS release 5.7
    thanks

    Pl identify exact version of "10g" being installed. CentOS is not a supported distro, so things may or may not work as expected. Search this forum for others who have tried to install on CentOS.

  • Installer fails to install .pkg files

    Just purchased Adobe Lightroom, and the .pkg file will not install. I get a console log message like so: "2007-08-09 16:20:58.530 Installer[416] Unable to load nib file: PagedInstaller, exiting"
    I tried a safe boot, llogging in as root, but this did no good...
    It installs just fine on my laptop, so it's not the disk...
    Any ideas short of a OSX reinstall?
    Message was edited by: Chuckla

    Hello and Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    This is a shot in the dark but it can't hurt anything. Locate this file:
    com.apple.installer.plist It's here: /Home/Library/Preferences
    Open the Preferences folder, locate that file and drag it to the Trash. Reboot.
    Try the Adobe LIghtroom installer.
    Also, if you haven't already tried it, run Disk Utility and Repair Disk Permissions. That can fix a myriad of weird problems.

  • Installer fails to install any package

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install Archlinux on a new computer, using the FTP ISO 2007.08-2 (i686). I partition the disk, select the packages, then the installer download them. When it tries to install them, I get the error message "missing package filelist" for each package. I tried 3 differents mirrors, and got the same errors.
    I'm in trouble, since the computer must be usable sunday evening
    Would anyone know how to fix this ? What did I do wrong ? I installed Archlinux on several other computers without any problem, but here i'm stuck.
    Thank you.

    All you have to do is install a newer version of pacman:
       1. Edit /etc/pacman.d/core by moving a preferred mirror to the top of the list or typing in the URL of a new mirror at the top; then
       2. Run pacman -Sy pacman.
    From there, you can continue the installation like normal.

  • Cannot redownload Moutain lion installer after a corruptd intaller failed to install.

    Hi All,
    I'm trying to upgrade to Mountain lion from Lion (10.7.4)
    Here is what I have done so far.
    I downloaded Mountain Lion but the corrupted installer failed to install.
    It suggested to delete the copy and go to puchases on App store and redownload it.
    But the App store's "downloaded" button did not change to "install" after moving the installer app to trash.
    So I emptied the trash and restarted my macbook and went to App store.
    This time, it showed "Buy App" button instead of "Downloaded" so I clicked it and it said I purchased the OS and suggested to redownload after clicking "ok" to the  popup.
    It started downloading but finished it in 2 seconds without actually downloading and installing and then the button goes to "installed" on purchases on App store.
    What am I supposed to do? How do I redownload the OS and install it.
    Please help.
    Young

    I talked to the technical support at Apple and he couldn't figure it out either.
    I keep seeing downloading finishes in a second and the button changes to "downloaded".
    I see OS X Mountain Lion icon at Lauchpad with progress bar showing full and just hanging there.
    Update
    I'm noticing after some minutes I see it silently completes downloading and 4.31 GB installer is put into Applications folder. Then it starts installation but I get the following error msg.
    "This copy of the Install OS X Mountain Lion.app application can't be verified. It may have been corrupted or tampered with during downloading."
    I'm not so sure whether the downloaded installer is actually 4.31GB long file because downloading seems taking less than 10 minutes which I think is too short to download the whole thing even at my work with fast internet speed.
    Any new ideas?
