Hi I need some help
I am attempting to install Oracle 9i (version 9.0.2.0.1.0) on RedHad 7.1.The installer quits after selection is made on Installation Types window.
Below is some additional information which may help to focus in on my exact problem:
1) When I issue the run command I receive the following in the terminal window prior the OUI slash screen:

10.4.3 INSTALLER QUIT DURING DISK 2

When installing 10.4.3 from CDs from 10.3.9, the installer would quit during disk 2 and say that there was an installer error and would then start the disk 2 install from the beginning. This cycle continued for about 3-4 revolutions. Then the install successfully completed disk 2 install and prompted for disk 3, after which everything went fine and now 10.4.3 is running perfectly.
I still have to install from the CDs onto another computer and my question, did I get lucky given that it eventually installed correctly? Or is this a warning that something is wrong with the CDs and should I have them replaced before using again? When the install quit each time, I believe that it got farther than when it quit previously.
This install was on a 1Ghz e-Mac, so I don't believe that firmware was the problem as there are no firmware updates listed (is this correct?)
iMac 800 Mhz, G4 400, eMac 1G, iBook 800 Mac OS X (10.4.3)

I believe that if you purchase a Family Pak, then you are licensed for up to 5 machines regardless of whether you have the DVD or CD set.
When you do such system upgrades it's a good idea to do the following:
1. Repair the hard drive and permissions on the target system's startup volume.
2. Update any third-party software for compatibility with the new system version if needed. Otherwise, disable or remove incompatible third-party software.
3. Verify compatibility of any third-party peripherals or PCI cards. If you have incompatible hardware then upgrade it first or disconnect it.
4. Clone your current installation to a bootable Firewire external drive. If you are running Panther or Tiger you can clone the startup volume using the Restore option of Disk Utility.
5. Unless the installation requires that you boot from an installer CD or DVD, boot into safe mode before running the installer(s).
6. Never install new software if the hard drive has errors that cannot be repaired. Use utilities like Disk Warrior, TechTool Pro, or Drive Genius to repair the drives, and if they fail then reformat the drive.
Follow the above religiously and you will likely encounter few if any problems with software updates or upgrades.

LaserJet Pro CP1025nw - Software Installation Stalls During a Wireless Install

In case anyone runs into an issue with the install freezing during a wireless install, HP has provided information on getting the unit installed properly in the following doc.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02607413&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_R1002_US...
Though I work for HP, My posts express MY opinion, and not those of HP.

Hello
I see that yous are having issue setting up the cp1025nw on the 10.8.
You can configure the printer on the wireless network through ethernet cable without any software.
Restore the printer back to factory settings if not already setup on the network from another computer.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02471640&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
Connect the network cable to the product and to the router. (temporary)
Wait about 1 minute and then print a configuration page.
(select operating system then select Method one.)
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02495036&cc=us&dlc=en&lc=en&jumpid=reg_r1002_us...
Use the ip address from the configuration page and type it in the address bar of browser (internet explorer, safarari)
This will open the embedded web server for the printer.
Select the networking tab, select wireless on the left side, set it to infrastructure and put in encrytian
(network passwords) apply then remove the ethernet cable from the printer.
Should have a solid blue light in about 1 minute.
Then on the mac just add the printer with the airprint driver.
Click on the Apple, click System & Preferences, and then click the Print & Scan icon,click add a printer, then select the printer from the list, make sure the name listed beside use: shows airprint, select add.
Test the printer on the wireless now.
Let me know how this turns out.

Win2000: Installer quits during "Executing pre-requisites..."

Hello all. I tried to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Windows 2000
Advanced Server (w/SP2) and every time the installer just quits--
no error message, nothing, the window just disappears--after
choosing the type (Typical, Minimum, Custom), about 30% through
the status bar when it says "Executing Pre-requisites...".
Since didn't have much luck with that, I went ahead and
installed Oracle on a Linux machine. Now I get the same problem
when I just try to install the Client on Windows 2000. After
choosing the type of client (Admin, Programmer, etc) it starts a
status bar, and the installer just disappears after it gets
to "Executing Pre-requisites..."
Anyone have any idea what's going on here? This has actually
occurred on two different Win2000 machines here. The only common
factor I could see was that both of them had been upgraded to
Internet Explorer 6. So I installed an old 4.7 versino of
Netscape and tried again but had the same problem.
Thanks a lot.

Hello All,
I got the same problem when installed Oracle8i with Intel
Pentium 4...So I thought that Oracle8i did not support Intel P4
at all...In fact, they did not support P4 in this time....If
anyone figures it out..please share big references...

OUI Hangs during Oracle 8i install on Mandrake 7.1

I have gone through all of the instructions I have found on this forum for installing 8i on Linux. I have downloaded and installed the JRE, created the oracle user, added the necessary lines to my .bash_profile, etc.
When I change to the /install/linux directory on my 8i installation cd and try to run ./runInstaller, the initial OUI welcome screen comes up. When I click on the "next" button, nothing happens, and I can't proceed. Has anyone out there experienced this? Any suggestions?

Which version of oracle ?
It works with oracle 8.1.6 and Mandrake 7.2
Hi have tested oracle 8.1.5 / 8.1.6 on mandrake 7.1 and Corporate and it works too

Successful installation of 8iEE 8.1.7 on RedHat linux 7.2 but no luck with Oracle 9i

Hi All,
I've successfully installed Oracle8i EE version 8.1.7 on RedHat
Linux 7.2. However, I have NOT had much luck installing Oracle
9i version 9.0.1 on RedHat Linux 7.2. I am wondering if anyone
in this forum has any luck installing Oracle 9i on RedHat Linux
7.2. I am running Linux kernel 2.4.7-10.
Now I am not trying to start a shouting match here; however, it
seems to me that a person with any common sense would not run
Oracle database on a Windows platform. Instead of running it
on Windows platform, one would be much better off running it on
Linux platform. I am currently Oracle EE 8.1.7 on an dual-Intel
processor 266MHZ with 512MB of RAM with Linux as the Operating
System. I have to say that the performance of the box is really
solid. At the same time, I am also running Oracle EE 8.1.7 on
an identical hardware system with Win2K server and I have to say
that the performance system is really pitiful on this Win2k server.
The windows box can only 1 instance at a time. If I try to have
two instances running at the same time, the windows box just comes
to a screeching halt. In contrast, the Linux box really rocks. In
a testing environment, I have 3 instances running at the same time
and the linux is barely breaking a sweat. I am getting maximum
performance out of the linux box because I recompile the linux kernel
to optimize the box to run Oracle database.
Having said that, as an Oracle DBA newbie (with less than six months
of Oracle DBA experience, the last ten years as a Cisco/Unix Engineer),
I find it fascinating that Oracle is only certified to run on SUSE (may
be I am wrong and someone can correct me on this one) when RedHat is
probably the dominant Linux distro. It took three days to get Oracle 8i
version 8.1.7 to install on RedHat Linux 7.2. Why Oracle is slowed to
support Linux RedHat is something I just don't understand.
OK, enough of venting my frustration, if anyone has successfully installed
Oracle 9i EE version 9.0.1 on RedHat Linux 7.2, please share your knowledge.
In the mean time, if anyone interested in obtaining instructions on howto
install Oracle 8i version 8.1.7 on Redhat Linux 7.1/7.2, send me an email
at [email protected] and I will send the instructions. The instructions
are written specifically for "windows dummies" so it is very to read and
follow. If you have been Unix for a long time, there will be instructions
in there that are so easy some of you may ask why put those in there in the
first place. My response would be: "windows dummies".
Regards,
Michael (david)

I very much agree with you Oracle is working very much better on Unix/Linux than Windows BUT in many cases you are obliged to use windows ( in Case that My company high managment enforce it ) , I have installed 9i on Windows and Linux , I am herunder including the full details :
========================================================================
Installing Oracle 9i on Linux
     Linux : Redhat 7.2
     Oracle : 9i Server EE 9.0.1.0.0
     RAM Used : 256 M Ram
     Hard Disk : IDE RAID
     Linux Kernel : 2.4.4-10
     JDK : Blackdown jdk118_v3 => downloaded from www.blackdown.org
     All shell here is the Bash shell ( Bourne again shell )
1.     To run a shell script over Linux , just drag the shell file from the file manager and drop it to a shell window
     Be sure to have swap space of 400 M or more
     If the systems stop responding for some time , leave it , it will continue
     Be sure to make a stage area for the CDs # 2 , 3 only because you will start from the CD 1 but after going in the installation the CDROM freezes and refuses to open door to replace CD ,, in this case you will switch to the last 2 CDs from the stage area
     Make sure you have the following executables at /usr/bin : MAKE , AR , LD , NM , C for Unix that is installed during Linux installation from the distribution media
Steps ( Root User ) :
1.     be sure to have to have your server domain is like hostess.com.eg and you can be able to ping it
     open /etc/hosts
     add a line as follows ( for instance ) :
     192.168.0.11 hostess.com.eg hostess
     ping hostess.com.eg
     ping hostess
     ping 192.168.0.11
     be sure to have a replay for all of them
2.     install JDK inside the /usr/local directory => after downloading the JDK you can easily decompress it but just clicking at it using the GUI
3.     get to the / prompt
4.     type ln s /usr/local/jdk118_v3 /usr/local/java
5.     download binutil RBM from Redhat for version 7 of Linux to downgrade binutils for Linux 7.2 or you will encounter an error at the third CD set
6.     download it from : ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/7.0/en/os/i386/redhat/rpms/binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
7.     run it as follows : rpm -Uvh force nodeps binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
8.     change to /proc/sys/kernel
9.     type cat sem
10.     you will get : 250 32000 32 128
     250 => SEMMSL
     32000 => SEMMNS
     32 => SEMOPM
     128 => SEMMNI
11.     you need to have the SEMOPM to be 128 , to do so , locate the file called sem open it replace the value of 32 with 128
12.     type again cat sem to be sure of taking the required effect
13.     after the installation ends just re-install the 7.2 utils again as follows :
14.     rpm -Uvh force nodeps binutils-2.11.90.0.8-9.i386.rpm
15.     you can find the last RPM at the 7.2 CD set
16.     after downloading the Oracle files from the net you need to decompress it as follows (one step) :
     zcat linux9i_disk1.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
     zcat linux9i_disk2.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
     zcat linux9i_disk3.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
17.     you can decompress them at 2 steps as follows :
     gunzip linux9i_disk1.cpio.gz
     gunzip linux9i_disk2.cpio.gz
     gunzip linux9i_disk3.cpio.gz
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk1.cpio
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk2.cpio
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk3.cpio
18.     Now you have 3 directories , have care when Burning them to CD because you need to take care of paths
19.     if you have downloaded the files via a Windows machine and have a MKS installed over it you can easily invoke Visual Pax and decompress the files at one go using the GUI program
20.     log on to Linux as Root and run commands in the file commands.txt
21.     log on as user Oracle to be sure that its created
22.     log on as root again
23.     get to the directory of /home/oracle
24.     enable showing the system files
25.     open the file of .bash_profile
26.     add the accompanied bash file contents at the end of it to set the environment variables
27.     log on as user Oracle
28.     open shell and type set and be sure that environment variables are set correctly
29.     open shell and change to the cdrom by typing cd /mnt/cdrom => Linux 7.2 is an auto mounting OS so you at no need to mount the CD drive prior to using it and if you need to mount it just type : AS ROOT
     mount t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom /cdrom
     this is surly after creating a directory at / called cdrom
30.     Start the installer ( as Oracle User ) by typing ./runinstaller
31.     the installer will ask you to run a started script as root , you may open a shell and type su then open Nautilus ( if using Gnome or File manager as super user if using KDE ) and drag the noted file to the shell screen and press enter ,, after it is ended continue with the installer
32.     if asked to supply JDK home directory then it is /usr/local/java
33.     Unix group Name ( to update Oracle software ) : oinstall
34.     Oracle home is : /oracle/9.0.1
35.     base directory : /oracle/orainventory

Hi,
During oracle installation i get this error "can't copy orancrypt8.dll to orancrypt8.dll.bak". how do i solve this? the oracle is not working..pls help me out

8i hasn't been supported in years. I haven't seen NT in quite a while, I'm pretty sure Microsoft desupported that a while ago. Are you really trying to install a desupported version of Oracle on a desupported version of Windows?

Hi JIm
It is true that for us DBA the OFA is the standard by excellence. You have also the quite good document on that gives you also a lot of examples.
http://www.ss64.com/orasyntax/ofa.html
What is a style server? Do you mean as a template server?
Please note also that if you need to do more than 1 installation you can clone your binaries from your first installation. Ideally you should patch it to he latest release and then make your clone.
1. tar your current binaries under /oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
2. copy the tar file on the target server under /export/home/oracle and then untar it.
3. cd to new_oracle_home/oui
4. ./runInstaller -clone -silent ORACLE_HOME="<new_oracle_home>" ORACLE_HOME_NAME="<unique_home_name>"

You can also clone your database to other targets
1 Duplicate from source to your targets
1.1 Perform a database backup including archive log
1.2 Create an Oracle password file for the auxiliary instance
1.3 Establish Oracle Net connectivity to the auxiliary instance
1.4 Create an initialization parameter file for the auxiliary instance
1.5 Start the auxiliary instance in NOMOUNT mode
1.6 Mount or open the target database
1.7 Ensure that backups and archived redo log files are available
1.8 Allocate auxiliary channels if needed
1.9 Execute the DUPLICATE script
Hope this will help you to get the templates installed.
Cheers
Hubert

Problem installing Oracle 9.2 on RedHat Linux 7.1 and 9.0

Hi everyone,
As the subject line says, I tried installing Oracle 9.2 on
RedHat Linux 7.1 and 9.0, strictly following instructions
written by Werner Puschitz
(http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml). Both
attempts failed with identical symptoms:
- the installer asks for Disk 2
- after the disk is inserted, it hangs. It turns out that
kernel is writing messages similar to these in
/var/log/messages:
Jun 16 02:45:19 boston kernel: 16:00: rw=0, want=317696, limit=149920
Jun 16 02:45:19 boston kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device
Unless interrupted, this continues until the /tmp filesystem gets full.
Has anyone experienced this? I haven't been able to find
an explanation so far.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Ljubomir Buturovic

Providing a thread-bare configuration of your machine on which you are trying to install Oracle on Linux (and mind you - which kernel/distro, coz that's important) would definitely help you elicit more responses to your messages.
