Installing Oracle Database 11.2.0.3 on Centos 6.4 in AWS

We have been installing and configuring oracle database 11.2.0.3 with OIAM 11gR1 for a few years with great success.
RHEL 5.7
WLS 10.3.6
OracleDB 11.2.0.3
OIAM 11gR1
OHS 11.1.1.6
We have recently decided to move our VMs to Amazon's EC2 environment using CentOS 6.4.  The OS our client currently has us using is a hardened version of RHEL5.7.  We have installed on CentOS in the past but not in 6.4.  All the prereqs are setup but we cannot seem to get the database to configure completely.  Running in silent or interactive mode makes no difference. 
When running in silent mode we received the following:
./runInstaller -silent -ignoreSysPreReqs -responseFile db_install_w_database.rsp

2 things come to mind with the netca log:
1) We are NOT using HA... so it would seem we could ignore that.
2) Port 1521 is NOT in use.  I ran netstat -anpl | grep 1521 in a 5 second delay loop while running the installation and it never appeared.
Does anyone know if there is something different with Centos6.4 or AWS installations that would cause this?  Also, the log says that the installation went fine and the issues were with  configuration.  The spfile does not exist and when root.sh is run after the install, the oratab has no entry ($ORACLE_SID:$ORACLE_HOME:<N|Y> does not exist).
Ideas?

Found the issue in the http://stackoverflow.com forums. We had searched them before but did not search on the correct error. I searched on "The information provided for this listener is currently in use by other software on this computer." and found a forum thread that we explained our issue.
We are using AWS as our server provider. AWS has 2 IPs it uses. The Public one which we use to putty into and access the server and the Private one that is on eth0. Evidently, the private IP needs to be in the /etc/hosts file not the public IP.
The database installed and is running.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem but, how can i know what my SID is ? i am trying with "ORCL" and it doesnt work.
    Do you know in which file i can get it ? in the documentation of the installation i found this:
    "If you are not sure of the values to enter for the URL, then you can query the data dictionary to obtain these values.
    Connect as SYSTEM and run the following queries.
    To retrieve the SID, execute: select instance_name from v$instance;
    If you need to retrieve the port number, check the listener.ora file on the
    back-end database."
    But how can i query the database if i have not finished to install it yet and where is located the listener.ora file ?
    I hope you can help me.
    Thank you.

  • How to install oracle database 11g express edition on Windows 7

    Hi Guys,
    i am trying to download and install Oracle database 11g express edition on windows7 and i can't seem to get it right. i did get the download but when i try to install, it keeps saying it appears to be an invalid archive.
    Please help..

    Action - Refer to the logs or contact OracleFinding the problem is the key. "Refer to the logs" is the only option, XE has no oracle support offerings.
    Which plugin failed, and why did it fail will be important clues. There should be error messages in the log that will be helpful.
    Otherwise, we don't have much help to offer. Fixing a problem means identifying the problem and performing steps to correct it, if there a fix is available.
    A MOS lookup on the ins-20802 error has snippets from one installer session, this one is from an x64 install. Not x86. To paraphrase the details:
    ... Created a new file <drive>:<OH path>\cfgtoollogs\configToolAllCommands
    SEVERE: java.io.IOException: Access is denied
    ...So from those symptoms, the user trying to run the installer does not have appropriate rights on that drive and/or folder. The fix for that particular problem is adding the user to the local administrators group. And rerunning the install. After running the deinstall steps to clean up the installation. As specified in the XE install guide for Windows.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm
    Also note the System Requirements, it specifies a System architecture Intel x86, which is not X64. There is no X64 installer for XE on Windows. So it might work. Or it might not if your host is x64.
    So if that is your particular error, verify that your user is in the local admins group. Either use the local users and groups applet (Start/Run/lusrmgr.msc) and open up the Administrators group. Click the Add button. Find your user. If your OS user is a windows domain user, be sure you have authenticated to the domain.
    Try the `net ...` list of the adminis group, that should reveal whom is indeed in the local administrators group:
    net localgroup administrators
    Administrator
    <domain>\Domain Admins ... # ??? is the host in windows domain ???
    <domain>\Local Admins
    <domain>\<user1>
    <user2>
    <user3>
    echo %USERNAME%
    # if relevant:
    echo %USERDOMAIN%Like it also states in the Windows install guide, under Permission Required quote:
    ... must be a member of the Administrators group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE.

  • Installing Oracle Database Express Edition 11g on UBUNTU

    Hello everyone,
    I want to install Oracle Database Express Edition 11g on UBUNTU. I followed the steps from this link created by Dude:

    Can somebody that knows this, or has installed Oracle Express on Ubuntu, to please explain it to me what does it mean and why am I getting those errors. Please explain thoroughly as if I am an amateur person, IN DETAIL, STEP-BY-STEP. I want to run it and make it work! I heard that it encourages people to answer for points. I am open for your suggestions and experiences, as long as it's not 'use common sense', 'you're dumb', or an answer that is vaguely explained.  Thank you for those that take the time to read it.

    Thanks for your suggestion, but I found it sometimes misunderstanding on what he's trying to say - his instructions are not step-by-step and precise. Instead, I found this link that helped me a lot:

    Hi,
    I've been trying to install Oracle Database 10g xe on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I execute the .deb package (oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb) I get a quick installation that doesn't ask me for any configuration settings. When the installation is finished I don't get any menu in my Applications menu named "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" as specified in Getting Started Guide (I only get some items grouped into an category called "Other" (Backup Database, Get Started, Get Started With Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Go To Online Forum, Read Documentation, Read Online Help, Register For Online Forum, Restore Database, Run SQL Command Line, Start Database and Stop Database). As a consequence I can't access the Oracle Database Home Page.
    In addition when I click on Start Database I get the following message: "Operation failed. josep is not member of 'dba' group".
    I've tried to re-download the packages and to configure it by editing /etc/init.d/oracle-xe but this doesn't solve my problem.
    can you give me some help?
    Thabk you in advance!

  • The problem of installing oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2

    Hi, there,
    I meet an error when I want to run runInstaller to install oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2 at the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant step:
    ORA-03113:end-of-file on communication channel.
    the installer report every other things are installed successfully except Database Configuration Assistant. but after I try to connect to database using sqlplus:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    after a very long responding time, there is an interior error. I don't know how to fix it. do I need reinstall the oracle or mannully configure the database? how to do that? my machine is P2 266 with 128M memory. the harddisk is 30GB. I don't know if this problem is caused by memory limitation?
    besides, who knows any other forums or website about oracle database installed on linux? I found there is very limit resource about this content on oarcle website.
    any hint will be great appreciated!

    It could be because of the memory. Oracle 9.x requires 512 MB minimum on Linux. Also the only Red Hat Oracle is now supporting is Advanced Server. But there are workarounds.
    There is an excellent web site for installing Oracle on Linux, but it has been down for the last week or two. But try it maybe next week:

  • Installing Oracle Database 11gR2 on Linux with Unbreakable Ente. Kernel

    Hello,
    I have Oracle Linux 5.5 with Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel.
    what do I need to have/prepare to install Oracle database 11gR2 on it?
    the hardware part and the partitions are done!
    1-
    Do I need to install/run Oracle Validated Configuration RPM? even if I have Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel?
    if yes does in means the Oracle's Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel does not prepare/configure the system to host database?
    2-
    With any of the above
    do I still need create or edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file, and add or edit lines similar to the following:
    fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576
    fs.file-max = 6815744
    kernel.shmall = 2097152
    kernel.shmmax = 536870912
    kernel.shmmni = 4096
    kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
    net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500
    net.core.rmem_default = 262144
    net.core.rmem_max = 4194304
    net.core.wmem_default = 262144
    net.core.wmem_max = 1048586
    I saw allot of docs out there, but none answered these questions!
    so please do not post docs or links to a general sites!
    Thank you for the help

    The intention of Oracle UEK is quite obviously Oracle specific, so I think it is legitimate to ask why not to include the Oracle specific kernel configuration file. The UEK is a drop-in replacement for the existing kernel. Why would we include the oracle-validated configuration options into the kernel package when we already have a perfectly good oracle-validated RPM that can be used with both kernels? Also, the UEK may be Oracle specific, but it's not database specific. Keep in mind that Oracle has thousands and thousands of products. :) I run the UEK on lots and lots of servers, many of which don't run database and many of which have completely different /etc/sysctl.conf configurations.
    The list of available packages and add-on's at http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL5/5/base/x86_64/ is growing. So perhaps it's just a matter of continued development.
    Not sure what the point of this statement is: there are no plans to incorporate the oracle-validated configuration into the kernel, as it already exists in oracle-validated.

  • I installed Oracle database 10g on SuSE Linux Enterprise Server 8 edition.

    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,
    D

    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

    Was the oracle-xe configure completed successfully?
    Are the pmon and listener processes running ... set your environment and connect via sqlplus if so. If no processes, the instance needs a startup.
    $ ps -ef |egrep pmon
    oracle ... ora_pmon_XE
    $ ps -ef |egrep lsnr   # can also check the listener status, see below
    oracle ... /usr/.../tnslsnr ...
    $ lsnrctl status
    Endpoints Summary ...
      (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=<your hostname>)(PORT=1521)))
      (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=http) ... (PORT=8080)))
    ...In the ORACLE_HOME/bin directory there is a shell script you can source to set up your environment variables for connecting to the database. The full path to the .sh should be revealed by the tnslsnr process, /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oracle_env.sh
    $ /usr/.../oracle_env.sh
    $ sqlplus /nolog

    Connected.
    SQL> select status from v$instance;
    STATUS
    OPENThe oracle user created by the configure won't have a known password set. Set it and switch user to the oracle login. If you don't want to muck about with the oracle user, at least add your user to the dba group so that you can connect with the sysdba privilege when needed.

  • Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?

    Hi all,
    I wish to ask is there any possibility to run Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?
    Regards.

    Hello Jimmy,
    this is the forum for the tool SQL Developer and, as the title says, *(Not for general SQL/PLSQL questions)*.
    PL/Sql Developer is not an Oracle tool, but from allound allroundautomations.
    And you need access to a database to run SQL statements. This does not need to be one installed by yourself.

  • Install Oracle Database 10.0.1.4.2

    Hi All,
    I am wondering how can I install this version of the Oracle database?
    In particular I have installed the Oracle Database 10.1.0.2.0 database,
    and am currently applying a patch set to get the database to version 10.1.0.4.0.
    How can I get this version of the database to version 10.1.0.4.2 once this is done? Is there any other patches that I need to apply to get the 10.1.0.4.0 current database to this new version 10.1.0.4.2.
    The reason I am asking this is in regards to getting a client database installed for the sole purpose of RMAN cataloging a metadata repository which is version 10.1.0.4.2.
    Cheers
    Rodney

    Hi All,
    I have found how to install the Oracle Database 10.0.1.4.2.
    Firstly you need to install Oracle Database 10.0.1.2.0.
    Then you need to apply the Oracle 10.0.1.4.2 patch. This however is NOT
    downloadable from Metalink or from OTN. The patch actually comes with the
    Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 install, and is part of the set of discs which comes with this version. I found that out yesterday from a SR I raised with Oracle.
    Cheers
