Installing Oracle 9i R2 on SuSE 8.2 Pro

I am trying to install Oracle 9i Release 2 on SuSE 8.2 Pro.
I receive the following error message in the Universal Installer after selecting General Purpose as the Database Configuration:
"Thrown when the IP address of a host cannot be determined"
Selecting Retry or Continue just rethrows the same error.
I have completed the Tasks to Perform as root User and Tasks to Perform as the oracle User as outlined in the Installation Guide.
Any help in resolving this error would be appreciated.

Hi,
I got the solution ;-)
My problems seem to bee caused by a obvisuously buggy/incompatible version of JRE in oracle's installationfileset.
I resolved the Problem by editing the JRE_LOCATION-variable in Disk1/install/linux/oraparam.ini (see below) to point to the root of my own local installation of Java 2 (java version "1.3.1_02" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02)).
start of the original file:
[Oracle]
DISTRIBUTION=TRUE
SOURCE=../../stage/products.jar
LICENSE_LOCATION=
JRE_LOCATION=../../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.3.1.0.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/jre/linux
OUI_LOCATION=../../stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/2.2.0.12.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -mx200m"
modified version:
[Oracle]
DISTRIBUTION=TRUE
SOURCE=../../stage/products.jar
LICENSE_LOCATION=
JRE_LOCATION=/usr/lib/SunJava2-1.3.1/jre
OUI_LOCATION=../../stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/2.2.0.12.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -Xmx300m"
After this change everything worked (besides some minor problems with the installed demo-database).

    I installed Oracle database 10g on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 edition.
    But this massage pop up when I used my browser first time before start database.
    Actually when I clicks on yes to start database.
    The web browser you are using is not optimized for this release of Oracle enterprise manager. It is recommended that you use one of the following:
    * Microsoft Internet Explorer version 5.5, 6.0 or higher
    * Netscape Navigator version 7 and higher
    *Mozilla version 1.3.1 and higher
    Dose any one know hoe to upgrade mozilla or install internet explorer 5.5, 6.0 or higher or SLES 8.
    Regards,

    You can download package for your distribution (for example) from http://www.mozilla.org or directly from SuSE ftp server ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/suse/i586

  • RunInstaller fails Installing Oracle 9i R2 on SuSE 8

    For testingpurposes I try to install Oracle 9i R2 on a intel-P4 box running SuSE 8.0
    with 768MB physical Mem, 1G Swap,
    Kernel 2.4.18-64GB-SMP, glibc-2.2.5-38, java version "1.3.1_02"
    Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02)
    Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_02-b02, mixed mode),
    I also installed the orarun.rpm which sets the appropriate environment.
    After starting the runInstaller script as oracle-user from a shell, the Java Installer starts with some font-errors:
    Font specified in font.properties not found [--symbol-medium-r-normal--*-%d-*-*-p-*-adobe-fontspecific]
    But the installer starts up and seams to work properly until it beginns loading the list of installable Products from products.jar. At about 40% the loading stops and I get the message:
    Exception in thread "main"
    on my console. The only way to continue at this point is to exit the installer.
    I tried different settings for $LANG including unset $LANG and different settings for -mx in oraparam.ini with no effect.
    Did anyone have the same Problem or does anyone know the reason of this error?

    Hi,
    I got the solution ;-)
    My problems seem to bee caused by a obvisuously buggy/incompatible version of JRE in oracle's installationfileset.
    I resolved the Problem by editing the JRE_LOCATION-variable in Disk1/install/linux/oraparam.ini (see below) to point to the root of my own local installation of Java 2 (java version "1.3.1_02" Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_02-b02)).
    start of the original file:
    [Oracle]
    DISTRIBUTION=TRUE
    SOURCE=../../stage/products.jar
    LICENSE_LOCATION=
    JRE_LOCATION=../../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.3.1.0.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/jre/linux

    JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=" -Xmx300m"
    After this change everything worked (besides some minor problems with the installed demo-database).

    hello
    I just installed Oracle XE and did the configuration. the database starts and I can do a

    but I can not connect via sqlplus or the database homepage with firexfox. SqlDeveloper does not work either.

    I am not oracle expert. I think the installation itselft was ok, but maybe the database
    does not start correctly.
    my configuration is like this:

    #Database and listener at system startup.It is generated By running
    #'/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure'.Please use that method to modify this

  • ORACLE 9iR2 OMS On SuSE 8

    I have installed ORACLE 9i R2 on SuSE with no errors.And I have configured my OMS with no errors.But when I use "oemctl start oms" to start OMS,it said "Time out to start oms,......checking oem.nohup".I opened the oem.nohup,it said /usr/bin/nice /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/oemLaunchOms:Bat interpreter,No such file or directory.But I can find nice and oemLaunchOms in they directory.Somebody can help me?

    Well, what about the listener and the instance ? are they running ? If not, plz start it first, before you start OMS. You have to start the listener first, then the instance. Do not do it vice versa or the OMS will give you an error.
    Hope this help

  • Oracle 9i installation on SuSE 7.3 freezes

    Hello-
    just tried to install Oracle 9i on my SuSE 7.3 Linux box. After
    the software installation I tried to create a new database
    with "dbca", but when Oracle starts to create the database it
    freezes the whole system. I can't even move the mouse cursor
    then.
    What's wrong?
    Thanks in advance.
    Wojtek

    Some screensavers on KDE on SuSE 7.3 freezes; Oracle9i behaves
    erratically on my incarnation of 7.3 during installation. I've
    had it lock up the session, log off the session, and tank the
    whole computer. All while trying to install the database
    product.
    I have not tried the various tips and such found here yet.
    Most Linux installations allow multiple window managers,
    selectable at logon; perhaps any KDE issues can be circumvented
    by using a less complex wm...?

  • I installed Oracle database 10g on SLES8

    I installed Oracle database 10g on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 edition.
    But this meassgae pop up when I used my browser firts time before start database.
    Actually when I clicks on yes to start database.
    The web browser you are using is not optimized for this release of Oracle enterprise manager. It is recommended that you use one of the following:
    * Microsoft Inetrnet Explorer version 5.5, 6.0 or higher
    * Netscape Navigator version 7 and higher
    *Mozilla version 1.3.1 and higher
    Dose any one know hoe to upgrade mozilla or install internet explorer 5.5, 6.0 or higer or SLES 8.
    Regards,

    You can download package for your distribution (for example) from http://www.mozilla.org or directly from SuSE ftp server ftp://ftp.suse.com/pub/suse/i386/9.1/suse/i586

    Ummm .... client license?
    All license questions should be addressed to Oracle.  I believe what you'll find is that the license for client installation is free.  What you pay to license and support is the rdbms (server) software.
    But all licensing questions should be addressed directly to Oracle.  A license agreement is a legal issue, and this forum will have no standing in court.

It will get a bit further if i run setup.exe in compatibility mode for Windows98, but seems to halt installation when trying to install a file called comUS.msd (- not sure if i have extension correct) it as at 76% of installation.
    Does anyone know how to get around this problem?
