OAS 4.0.8.1 working on RH linux 6.1 ????

I already have Oracle8i working fine on RH 6.1 but there is no way to put OAS 4.0.8.1 to work properly. It shows a message when starting a process (I already applied the patch available on oracle ftp site but it didn't work). Should I wait for a new version of OAS (it works fine on NT) ????

log files.
Configuration:
Dell PowerEdge 6300 Quad-CPU
512 MB memory
OAS4.0.8.1 w/ patch upto 1227322
Linux 6.1
glibc 2.2
I get this when executing either from the node manager (graphically) or at the command line.
Any Ideas?

I am with the same problem.

  • [GUIDE] How to get MapleStory working in Arch Linux

    MapleStory is a free-of-charge, 2D, side-scrolling massively multiplayer online role-playing game developed by the South Korean company Wizet. Several versions of the game are available for specific countries or regions, and each is published by various companies such as Wizet and Nexon. Although playing the game is free, character appearances and gameplay enhancements can be purchased from the "Cash Shop" using real money. MapleStory has a combined total of over 50 million subscriber accounts in all of its versions. MapleStory North America (Global), for players mainly in North America and outside of East Asia, Southeast Asia and Europe, has over three million players.
    In the game, players travel the "Maple World", defeating monsters and developing their characters' skills and abilities as is typical in role-playing games. Players can interact with others in many ways, such as through chatting, trading, and playing minigames. Groups of players can band together in parties to hunt monsters and share the rewards. Players can also join a guild to interact more easily with each other.
    I am an avid mapler myself, however, I am also an avid archer! For some time, I have wanted to get MapleStory working on Arch Linux in some way, but nothing seemed to work. As you might have guessed by now, recently, while playing around with VirtualBox, I discovered a method to get MapleStory working on it! Though in this method you won't actually have MapleStory running on Arch Linux, you'll have it running on a VirtualBox Windows virtual machine, that is still pretty good compared to other people's experiences.
    I hope there are at least a few maplers on this forum, and if there aren't, I hope that someone will port this post over to other Linux, or even MapleStory, forums. Anyways, let's begin.
    1. Download and install a version of Virtual Box that is version 3.0+. The reason for this is that, only versions 3.0+ support an experimental DirectX Driver with 3D acceleration that is required for MapleStory to run.
    2. Create a Windows Virtual Machine, add a hard disk to it, and install and update Windows on it(preferably Windows XP, as it uses less resources than other contemporary Windows installations).
    3. Once you have done all you needed and wanted on that Windows installation, restart it, boot it into safe mode by holding F8 at the boot, and wait until the desktop is fully loaded.
    4. After you are at the desktop, go to "Devices" at the top of the menu of the Windows virtual machine, and select "Install Guest Additions...". Wait until Guest Additions finishes installing, and when VirtualBox asks you if you want to mount the disk containing the Guest Additions on the virtual machine, say "Yes".
    5. Run the main executable on the disk that doesn't have amd64 or x86 following its name. Follow the instructions it gives you, and when it asks you what components to install, make sure both of the boxes it shows you are checked.
    6. After the install is completed, the virtual machine will restart. After it restarts, shut it down.
    7. Congratulations! You now have DirectX installed on your VirtualBox virtual machine! Now you need to activate the "3D Acceleration", that enables it.
    8. In the VirtualBox main window, make sure you have your machine with Windows selected. Then, click on "Machine", and then "Settings...", at the top. A new window should pop up. On the left hand side, click on the display panel, and in the new settings section, tick Enable 3D Acceleration. Click "OK", to save the settings.
    9. Start your Windows virtual machine, install MapleStory just as you would on a normal windows computer, and run MapleStory.
    Notes: This way of running MapleStory is slower than by running it normally, on a normal windows computer. Also, try to not interact with your Linux desktop while playing MapleStory, because this can cause HackShield to shut down MapleStory, due to the fact that it believes there is a hacking attempt.
    If any of you port this guide to any other place on the web, please, credit me, neovaysburd5.

    Alright, I've posted it in the wiki. I don't know if it meets the Arch Linux wiki standards, so if there is absolutely anything wrong with it, please fix it right away. Don't even ask my permission.

  • SB0100 Live 5.1 XPSP3 not working, works fine under Linux

    I'm at my wit's end.
    Sondblaster Li've 5. SB000 installed under WinXp SP3. Device Manager sees it, insists that there are no better drivers than what it already has installed, and that "the device is working properly". Yesterday I could at least select the card under Sound andAudio Devices control panel, now it doesn't show there at all. I have uninstalled/reinstalled, enabled/disabled, Device Manager thinks all is well but nobody else seems to think I have a sound card installed.
    Linux likes it (Ubuntu Hardy Heron) no problem.
    I just inherited this PC and have no original driver disc but the Auto Update on the Creative site sees it but every time I try to get it to search for and install new drivers (I have tried 50 times at least) I get a message saying "server busy"
    The Li've driver packages that I have downloaded and run all seem to work fine but when I restart the same problem-- no sound card apparently present, and when I run the driver package again this itme it says there is no card present..until I repeat the process..over..and over..and over...
    I find it hard ot believe that Creative has had problems like this under XP for years with no fix. The steps in the FAQ haven't worked. I'm not the onlyone as evidenced by a Google query.
    Does anyone have any advice?
    Thanks!
    Matt

    Thanks, Katman, but no cigar.
    When I started all this at least I could see "Avance AC97" and "Creative SB series Li've" as selections in the Sound and Audio Devices properties, now it's just the modem #0 Line Playback.
    Went into safe mode and uninstalled...then reinstalled...and again...disabled/reenabled built in audio in the BIOS...enabled/disabled in Device Manager... updated the BIOS...updated the Avance drivers...nothing-- and it all works fine in Linux so I'm confident it's a M$ thing.
    Any other ideas? I'm grateful for your help, but I am stumped.
    Cheers,
    Matt

  • Making docky or cairo dock work with oracle linux

    anybody know how to do this? i've tried for a few days but it seems beyond my capabilities.

    other software:
    anybody have the game 'red eclipse' working on oracle linux?
    anybody have a good note taking app working on oracle linux?
    anybody have any desktop 'applets'?
    thanks!

    Are you referring to: http://www.zdnet.com/free-software-father-declared-ubuntu-linux-to-contain-spyware-7000008516/
    Well, I would not necessarily consider above article a show stopper to use Ubuntu. You can turn the surveillance off. Many if not most software products call home and there seems to be a global trend to penetrate internet users with intelligent advertising and marketing. So they probably get you in one way or another. Just install a web add-on like "Ghostery" and you might be surprised.
    CentOS, Scientific Linux, Oracle Linux, etc., are all free derivatives or clones of RHEL and as such will give you the exact same trouble with unsupported hardware. Fedora is the closest Linux distribution to RHEL designed for computer desktops.
    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_Hat_Enterprise_Linux_derivatives
    If not Ubuntu, then perhaps Linux Mint will suit your needs.
    http://www.linuxmint.com/
    You can install free Oracle VirtualBox and give all these Linux distributions a try before you consider dual-boot.

  • How jvm threads works on new Linux 2.6 scheduler with SMP kernell

    Hi,
    i'm using Sun JDK Java HotSpot(TM) Server VM (build 1.5.0_14-b03, mixed mode) to run tomcat,
    anyone knows How JVM threads works on new Linux 2.6 scheduler with SMP kernel?
    i ask this, because in a single processor machine the tomcat replies more fast than a dual processor machine, maybe the reason is, that SMP load balancing made for new scheduler, slow down the JVM performance for threads? there is a way to avoid this?
    reference about Linux Scheduler: http://www-128.ibm.com/developerworks/linux/library/l-scheduler/?ca=dgr-lnxw09LinuxScheduler
    bug that have "same" problem: http://bugs.sun.com/bugdatabase/view_bug.do?bug_id=5038858
    thanks for any insight

    This is bug:
    6328462 Linux getCurrentThreadCpuTime() does not match with getThreadCpuTime(currentThread)
    It will be fixed in:
    - JDK 6.0 (Mustang) build b63
    - JDK 1.5.0_07 build b01
    The problem is that the HotSpot VM takes the stat info from the file'/proc/$tid/stat'
    which is incorrect on Linux kernels 2.6+ with NPTL because this file aggregates
    per-process (.vs. per-thread) usage on these kernels.
    The file '/proc/self/task/$tid/stat' still has the per-thread usage and must be used instead.
    There is also a performance bug:
    6200022: JVMTI GetCurrentThreadCpuTime slow on Linux
    This bug is about using new Linux posix compliant process clocks (2.6.10) :
    http://sources.redhat.com/ml/libc-alpha/2004-10/msg00117.html
    It is too late to fix this in Mustang but can be possible in one of the update releases.

    Could someone point me what to do in order to make it work? I guess I miss some step but I don't know what one I've missed :(((

    Scott,
    Thanks for your reply. I double check instruction and re-done all steps. I try to start demo application (I didn't even go further tneh step 4 in Install.txt!)
    from ...\ssosdk307_032101\demo\plsql\Readme.txt 5. To verify the web server setup, go to the following URL to see the test page:
    http://<hostname>:<port>/pls/<dad_name>/<schema_name>.test_setup
    , but I receive the same error messages in IE and in Apache error_logs.
    I see at this point one weak area - this is DAD. As I understand I need to create dad in dads.conf, am I right?
    Maybe I didn't created it right?
    Could you post some working dad for SingleSignOn?
    Thanks,

    I have installed OAS 10.1.3.0 (32 bit) on Oracle Linux 5 (64 bit) successfully. But when I am trying to upgrade/install to OAS 10.1.3.5.0 (Patchset 5), the installation is struck/hanged at 13%. I am using SOA suite 10g installer. There is enough free space on disk -- 32gb and installation folder has required permissions.

    Finally I found the answer.
    for a strange reason the classloader in release 3 was not able to find the BSF provider although the bsf.jar was inside the applib.
    Thus I have set the
    System.setProperty("org.apache.xalan.extensions.bsf.BSFManager","class to load");
    Could someone explain me why the application server was not able to locate the class although the iAS release 2 was working fine ?
    Thank you.

  • OAS 10.1.2.0.2 - 64 bit Linux - RAM

    I need to install OAS Infrastructure 10g, OAS 10g, Metadata DB instance, and another DB instance on the same machine. I want to get a 64 bit machine and a 64 bit Linux version so that I can use 4 GB of RAM to ensure that I have enough memory.
    My question is: will OAS 10.1.2.0.2 be able to see RAM above 2 GB or is this version still limited to 32 bit memory addressing? Will I have to install a 64 bit version of Java to make this work? (If so, what exactly do I need to get?)
    Also, with the above installation that I mentioned, would I be cutting it too close with 3 GB RAM?

  • How to get a Mad Catz R.A.T 3/5/7 to work on Arch Linux

    This post isn't about me asking for help.  Instead it is a post about how to get a Mad Catz R.A.T. 3/5/7 mouse working.  I'm posting this for future Archers who have bought one of these mice.  They're a good mouse product but unfortunately there is a weird bug in the mouse's firmware that makes it "lose focus" on a desktop or "locks" your cursor into the middle of your screen seemingly at random.  Your mouse might also fail to click on things in a window or on a desktop.  It took me the better part of a day and a half to find the answers to fix this behaviour.  I couldn't find anything on this forum so I'm posting this for future Archers.  I am not the originator of the solution so I will post the relevant information from others' posts from two different web sources.  If you're interested in the technical aspects of why this behaviour is present in this type of mouse please scroll down.*
    The problem as summarised by the guy at Delightfully Linux:
    if you plug in the mouse without modifying xorg.conf, the buttons become unresponsive and the Ubuntu desktop will appear to have locked up even though the cursor still moves. This is the same issue with the black R.A.T. 7, and it has the same solution.
    He gives you one way to fix this:
    Put the code below into /etc/X11/xorg.conf
    Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "Mouse Remap"
    MatchProduct "Saitek Cyborg R.A.T.7 Albino" #change this if you need to by using input-list to generate the correct product code
    MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
    Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 0 0 0 0 0 0"
    EndSection
    That button remapping full of zeroes will not let you use the side scroll button or the red button. 
    However, another person posted a comment to Delightfully's blog who claimed that his code (below) will enable all of the R.A.T.'s buttons.  I have tried it and it enabled my side scroll wheel for a few minutes.  It did not last and I have no permanent fix at this time.  If someone else does have a fix for the other two "buttons" on the mouse please post it!
    The code which supposeldy enables all of the mouse's buttons is here:
    /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/910-rat.conf and this file place in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d
    # Cyborg Mouse R.A.T. 7 in Ubuntu 10.10 (Extra Buttons)
    Section "InputClass"
    Identifier "R.A.T."
    MatchProduct "R.A.T.7|R.A.T.9"
    MatchDevicePath "/dev/input/event*"
    Option "Buttons" "17"
    Option "ButtonMapping" "1 2 3 4 5 0 0 8 9 7 6 12 0 0 0 16 17"
    Option "AutoReleaseButtons" "13 14 15"
    Option "ZAxisMapping" "4 5 6 7"
    EndSection
    Save and reboot
    I can verify that both sets of code do work on a R.A.T. 7 Contagion and that others affirm it works for a R.A.T 3 or 5.
    One final method of fixing this without bothering with files in /etc/X11/xorg.conf.d is to use a .Xmodmap in your home directory with this in it:
    Put this file in your home directory file in the user directory:
    This post isn't about trying to get any of the series' of R.A.T. mice from Mad Catz working. I'm posting this for future Archers who have bought one of these mice.

    One final note: It seems that this mouse (on my rig at least) is incapable of scrolling in text boxes (such as the one I'm using to post this). I don't know why this behaviour is present but it was not like this, prior to using the previously written code that is, and I don't know if it is also fix-able. If you find out how to repair this function please post it in this thread.
    I hope this helps whoever comes across it. :)

    There actually is a wiki entry that points to Delightfully's posts on his blog.  Honestly, I've never edited a wiki and I wasn't sure if I'd be stepping on someone else's wiki-toes (so to speak).  If there is interest in that, though, I'll learn to edit a wiki and add it.

(I have 3 x HDDs and 1 x SSD in this Desktop system. and I dual boot Windows7 and Linux Mint with data on its own HDD.) No attempt has yet been made to scan after this Windows re-install, as I have a separate photo scanner.  I mainly wish on the to print on CM1312MPF, however it did scan perfectly well prior to the reinstall of Windows. THE CM1312MPF PRINTS FINE VIA THE SAME USB OUTPUT LEAD (AND POWERED HUB) AS VIA LINUX MINT 17 (PETRA)  when I dual boot and without any PHYSICAL CHANGES between changing O/Ss. It must be a driver problem, surely, mustn't it? I look forward to your help. John_of_Penrith

    You can also disable that windows wireless "Critter" from device manager and it shouldn't ever again show-up in your adapter list. Thanks for the lesson. I too have wondered about the windows virtual adapter and what it's for. I never had it show-up in my adapters though in the network and sharing center. That was strange that it happened to you. I also occasionally just go to device manager and reload the adapter that came with laptop-not the windows one. It
    seems to keep it running fairly well since there have been no new drivers for it. I think it was an experiment or something called the DW1501 Wireless half-mini n that came with my Dell Inspiron N7010 laptop. I don't particularly like it as compared to the other wireless adapters in my home, this thing is slow on downloads, but I don't want to bother to get a new adapter.
    Anyhow thanks for the interesting lesson.

  • Ralink RA3290 does not work on Oracle Linux

    I have just bought a new HP Pavilion G6-2213so which seems to have a ralink rt3290 wifi chipset
    (Just so you know I'm not very experienced with linux when it comes to install new drivers etc)
    I have installed:
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.3 (Santiago)
    Linux hp-v074617 2.6.39-300.17.2.el6uek.x86_64
    I have downloaded a driver from mediatek, unzipped it and
    ran
    make
    make install
    modprobe rt3290sta
    When I run i got
    lsmod|grep rt3290
    rt3290sta 1255193 0
    iwconfig
    lo no wireless extensions.
    ra0 Ralink STA
    Link Quality:0 Signal level:0 Noise level:0
    Rx invalid nwid:0 invalid crypt:0 invalid misc:0
    eth0 no wireless extensions.
    rfkill list all
    0: hp-wifi: Wireless LAN
    Soft blocked: no
    Hard blocked: no
    1: hp-bluetooth: Bluetooth
    Soft blocked: yes
    Hard blocked: no
    dmesg|grep rt3290
    rt3290sta: module license 'unspecified' taints kernel.
    (Related to GPL I think but not sure if it has an impact)
    To me it seemes that the system are aware of my wifi card but still I can not get any wifi connection
    Apprecate if someone can tell me if I missed something or what other steps I need to do to make it work
    Best regards

    Support and demand for Wifi on a Linux enterprise server system (RHEL based) is generally limited and usually a desktop system requirement, for which other more suitable Linux distributions exist.
    You need to be 100 % about the model of your Wifi adapter.
    What is the output of lspci -v related to your Wifi adpater?
    Does the driver you download support the Oracle UEK2 kernel (2.6.39)?
    You could try your installation starting the system from the original RHEL kernel at the Grub menu to see if it makes any difference. If HP support nor the OS installation provides a driver for your hardware, check http://elrepo.org/tiki/tiki-index.php which focuses on hardware related packages to enhance Enterprise Linux.
