Is it always necessary to patch Oracle when installing under Linux?

I did a search first and, yes, I checked http://www.puschitz.com/.
Everything I have seen to this point suggests Oracle cannot be installed without patching it first, even if it certified for that platform.
Please advise.

Anser is NO, the oracle 8.0.5 can be installed on redhat 5.2 without any patch, the oracle10g can be installed on redhat EL3 without any patch too. Those version of oracle with those version of Redhat linux are standard couple. Though something need a little skill to fix such as the ora8.0.5 precompile need some fix on redhat 5.2. Ora8i and Ora9i having too much bugs, after the patch, the bug will be bigger than before. However the Ora10g is good, the only problem is user SYSTEM seems having control right problem, but we can using user SYS replace SYSTEM user.
Does any one have other idea?

  • Oracle 10g install on Linux ES4 on VM Player - Help Reqd

    When I run dbca with the silent install I get the message
    "waiting for m_bReaderStarted to be true" - which it never is.
    So it isn't making a connection I suspect.
    The listenser also won't start.
    10g is installed on linux es4 running on VM Player.
    I think the problem may be to do with when I start dbca (or the listener) it doesn't connect.
    In /etc/hosts I have
    127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
    and in the tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files i have the 'HOST = localhost.localdomain' (with post = 1521)
    Is /etc/hosts and the ora files set correctly ?

    Can I do it this way ?Yes, but so far you've not said much other than "it doesn't work", which doesn't give anyone anything to go on. You said specifically that the listener doesn't start, but if it doesn't start there will be error messages on the screen when you issue 'lsnrctl start' and in the listener log. Those error messages would be a good place to start.

    Hi,
    Please specify whether you have installed CI and DB on two different machines (hosts).
    Have you given proper entries when asked about Database Server during your CI installation ? Check the SAPDBHOST parameter in the DEFAULT.PFL
    If yes then have you installed oracle client on CI ? You will have to install it.
    Please check and reply.
    Regards,

  • Is it necessary to have oracle client installed for remote access thru' jdbc type2 driver?

    If I want to use oracle oci type 4 driver, do I need to install oracle
    client?
    or is it sufficient to put dll in classpath and classes12.zip in
    classpath.
    I can then specify in jdbc url the host:port:sid and not use the alias
    from tnsnames.ora
    I will be connecting to remote oracle database ofcourse.
    Komal.

    you need the Oracle client libraries installed.
    And the easiest way to do this is to make an oracle client installation.
    the DLL files should be in your PATH, not classpath.

  • Reverse lookup error when installing on Linux/MaxDb

    Hello,
    I'm trying to install NW CE 7.1 SP5 on Linux/MaxDB.
    The OS is RedHat EL 5.
    I've chosen all standard options, nothing custom/exotic.
    When entering the database parameters I enter sap.mycompany.com as Database Host.
    Then I get an error message saying:
    This computer's host name is sap.mycompany.com but a reverse lookup returned 'sap'. This will lead to problems later on when starting the Web application server. SOLUTION: Insert a line ' 127.0.0.1 sap.mycompany.com' into the host file etc/hosts, and then continue with the installation.
    The solution doesn't work and we're stuck here.
    Thanks for your help
    regards.

    Hi,
    I had the same problem but I fixed it easy, I have changed the hostname and quitted the domain.
    in other words, before the hostname was "sap.company.com" and then only "sap".

  • Oracle 8i installed under Win98 using JDeveloper

    I have sucessfully installed 8i for Win98, but I am having problems setting up local dayabases using NET8. Can anyone offer any tips?? I want to use JDeveloper to Access databases locally using JDBC

    Hi Jim
    I was able to get Personal 8i up and
    running. When you start your session
    you first start up the listener pgm
    then mount the database correct?
    I have been able to use SQL navigator,
    PowerBuilder, and SQL Plus to create and
    mannipulte DB tables, procs and other relational objects. Make sure the Listener is up and running and that the TNSNames files has the correct instance name.
    If you want I can send you copies of my
    listener and tns names file as an example.
    It took me a week + to get it working and I'm not really sure how I did it! Also, I thought JDeveloper for 8i was only available
    under NT. My email is [email protected]

  • Access oracle server installed on linux from client on winxp

    Hi

    please help me.

    Hi,
    Please download the Oracle Database 10g Client for Windows at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winsoft.html
    Then please install the client and configure it, after that, you can use sqlplus to connect the DB on Linux. See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15662/toc.htm for details.
    Also, you can use ssh or telnet to connect to the linux from windows, and run the sqlplus command on the linux server directly.

  • Oracle 9i install on Linux

    I just finished installing the Oracle 9i Software on my Linux
    7.2 box. After installing the Database Software I chose not to
    create the seed Database. I wanted to create a custom Database
    on my own so I defered the task for later. I then installed the
    client Software that has the netconfig/sqlplus/Enterprise
    Manager tools etc.
    Now I am trying to create the Database, BUT I cannot find the
    Database Configuration Assistant in my ORACLE_HOME/bin
    directory!!
    I thought I installed everything. Does 9i create databases in a
    different manner than previous versions.
    Has anyone else run into this issue before?
    Hope I don't have to reinstall the software again.
    Thanks

    Hi-
    You will need to download jkk118_v3. untar your file and move it

    You also need to modify oracle .profile to be able to find it.
