OBI EE - Linux - Install questions

Hi
Can OBI EE be safely installed into other directories? Ideally, we would like to keep the same $ORACLE_BASE that we use on our Oracle servers: '/u01/oracle/product'. If yes then OBI EE would be installed into these directories:
- /u01/oracle/product/OracleBI
- /u01/oracle/product/OracleBIData
Also, which account should own OBI EE? oinstall? oracle? root? A new obiee user?
Thanks!

Hi,
As far as I know it is possible to install OBI EE in the Oracle directory.
I think, but I do not have much experience with it yet, you should create a separate OBI EE user. One of my clients has a separate user an that works alright. One of my other clients had a combination of root and oracle and that gave a lot of problems.
Hope this is enough info.
Good Luck,

Oracle Webgate Linux Install Question

Hello
When trying to install the 10.1.4.3 webgate on RHEL 6, the install starts then says loading the Java Virtual machine then just stops. There is no log or other trace files to see what is going on, it just stops. Has anyone else had this problems? Any help you can give would be appreciated.
Thanks
Nick

Hi Nick,
Can you specify for which web server you are installing Webgate in Linux??
Did you verified that the required GCC Libraries are installed in the Linux Servers.
OAM WebGates are compiled with and linked to the following GCC runtime libraries, which must be present on any Linux or Solaris computer hosting 10.1.4.3 WebGates:
Ø Either shared libstdc++.so.5
Ø Or shared libstdc++.so.6
Ø And libgcc_s.so.1
And also verify that the Linux Operating System is 32-bit or 64-bit and based on this JAVA JDK should be same as OS type.
And also verify, that particularly before installing the Webgate 32-bit or 64-bit based on the Webserver type.
Hope this helps.

Launching Wizards in Oracle 11G on Linux install

Hi,
Just wondering if someone can tell me where the wizard launches are located in the Linux install.
Thanks,
Zach

Hans,
I have heard them referred to in different ways,
Configuration assistance, Wizards, etc. Say if I
didnt want to create a database by command line. I
wanted to walk through "Configuration Assistant" and
choose defaults for the quick and easy setup. No worries. Using the correct terminology gets the right answer faster, and the wrong terminology simply means that we have to test and verify the question. Always works that way.
One definition of professional is 'a person who knows the right name for the tools'. Based on that, I've known come amateurs who are much better than the pros.
I would like to figure out where to launch the
"Configuration Assistant" that might let me do that.
I know in Windows environment, they are located right
in the Oracle start menu. Actually, if you took a moments gander you might have noticed that the 'Start Menu' is nothing more than a set of shortcuts. There is literally no program 'In' the Start Menu.
Right clicking on the Start Menu shortcut and looking at the properties would tell you the name of the Assistant and that it is located in the ORACLE_HOME/bin directory.
And the nice thing about Oracle is that the names are pretty much the same in Linux, Unix and Windows (and others as well) Due to historic silliness, Windows needs a .exe at the end of the file name, so in Windows it is netca.exe and in Linux it's netca ... and so on.

Thanks for any help.Hope the above helps

Hi C,
No, you should wait till the end of the Welcome video, when the message says it will restart to finish installation it means installation is still in progress, conclude the procedures.
Happy installing, good luck.

Free download, and install question

Free download, and install question.
I need to buy a larger h/d, but till then I would like to put as many programs as possible on a external usb drive that I have hooked up to my PC. I've been able to do this with some other programs, and would like to try it with my Adobe Reader and Flash. When down loading and installing it does not give me the option to install in a defferent location other then my C: drive. Can this be done? Thanks you?

From the MSI you have to create a MST (Transforms). In the MST create now the new property INSTALLDIR=F:\, where F: is your USB-drive. If you use then the command
msiexec.exe /i [MSI] transforms=[MST]
Adobe Reader should be installed to F:

Failure to install CD 3 of Linux install set

Downloaded four zip files from the following location:
http://edelivery.oracle.com/linux
Unzipped them to the ISO files and then burned the four CDs - no problem and the CDs were validated as okay. During the install CD1 - no problem, CD2 - no problem, CD3- problem - wrong CD was the error message. So redownloaded, unzipped, and reburned CD3. Redo and precisely the same error.
THEN went to the following location and downloaded the five ISO images from here and burned the corresponding CDs.
http://linux.us.oracle.com/isofs/RedHat/RHEL4/i386/ES/U4
Burned the five CDs and they validated as okay. Install - CD1 - no problem, CD2 - no problem, CD3- problem - wrong CD was the error message. Precisely the same thing as above.
THEN - took both sets of CDs, and instead of my home machine I took them to an ed center and attempted the install on a spare machine and get exactly the same errors as above.
What is going on - seems like it always CD3 (regardless of the number of CDs) that croaks - how do I get Linux installed?
THANKS for any help - Ken Cooper

Did any of you ever solve this problem ? -
I have same issue with CD 3, no matter what I try it claims to be unable to read the darn thing !
The packages it has failed on so far is XDELTA / ZSH / SENDMAIL - all from CD3
I have tried burning a new CD3 copy -> same thing.
I changed the CD drive of the server. Dunno why it would accept CD1 and CD2 but not CD3 - anyway it didnt work either !
Tried using both CD's in another PC and was able to extract and view the faulted packages without a glitch !?!
I'm lost for clues . . .
Now i'll try fetching the CD3 again and burn a third copy....
And then i'll try to choose to few things that it might not need cd3.
If that also fails i'll throw everything away and ask them to use MySQL or MSSQL :)
Is there any way to copy the stuff to harddisk and run install from there !?
- just point me to the manual if I overlooked that possibility :) ?

Linux Install Problem

Hello,
I hope I'm in the right forum.
I have tried a triple boot on my macbook (http://support.apple.com/kb/SP504)
- extra partition for Win7 and Linux - installed rEFIt - Windows installation without problems.
But the Linux install fails.
(Tried to install with openSuse 11.3) The CD booted normally. But after I clicked on the "install"-Button, a green screen appears and nothing moves. I've also tried to install Ubuntu (10.4 LTS) but after the CD booted, a black screen appears and the screen is frozen.
After that I decided to reinstall my OSX, perhaps it helps. But that doesn't solve the problem.
Sorry for my bad english. I hope you can help me,
Max

Thanks for the reply. I figured it out on my own. Something to do with
specifying the directory or changing the current directory, I forget exactly which.

Linux Install Podcast does Arch

The last two episodes of the Linux Install Podcast covers the installation of Arch Linux. I'm not what you'd call an expert, and I make mistakes, well, I make a lot of mistakes. But I do manage to get Arch installed with X. I get wireless working with a rt61 based wireless card and I get my ati radeon xpress 1100 working with both the open source and the proprietary drivers. Anyone interested in hearing someone fumble through an Arch install can get the podcast from: http://thelip.net

Arch can give you what you want (so can Debian and Gentoo), but the two most important criteria for a lightweight system are: 1: install and load only what you want, and 2: when you have an option, go for the less resource hungry solution (MPD vs Amarok, for example).
P.S.: I use both a custom kernel and the stock kernel on my netbook. Both load with same ram usage (as only required modules are loaded by udev), just the install size vary as the custom kernel is stripped down for the modules that I really need. What makes the difference is not kernel really, but what you load afterwards. My netbook loads xorg, openbox and some lightweight eye-candy like conky, wbar, etc immediately after booting up, the ram usage at the beginning of session is ~60 megs (only!).

Hum, well I don't know how to write a git patch. I guess it would be a good thing to learn though, but I have to go to bed now.
Hum..., after further looking at the this forums section I guess I posted in a totally wrong place Live and learn.

? Linux Install via vncviewer post install ? device xvda was unreadable ?

Thanks in advance:
Using 64 bit new server/ I've successfully installed version 2.1 64bit of VM Server.
During the virt-install --vnc
# mount -o ro,loop /OVS/running_pool/rac1/rhel-5.1-server-x86_64-disc1.iso /el/EL5x86_64
# service iptables stop
# service portmap restart
# service nfs restart
# exportfs *:/el/EL5x86_64
What is the name of your virtual machine? : rac1
How much RAM should be allocated: 8000
What would you like to use as the disk (path)? /OVS/running_pool/rac1/rac.img
How large would you like the disk (/OVS/running_pool/rac1/rac1.img (gigabytes)? 100
Would you like to enable graphics support? (yes or no): yes
What is the install location? nfs:192.168.1.11:/el/EL5x86_64
Then I set the DISPLAY=<client-ip>:0.0
The /etc/exports contains: /el/EL5x86_64 *(rw,no_root_squash)
During the Linux Install
1. I configure the IP for the Guest OS install
2. Configure TCP/IP for the new Guest OS
I Get a Warning on the Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5
The Partition table on device xvda was unreadable to create new partitions it must be initialized, causing the loss of ALL DATA on this drive.
I choose: YES
Because it will not allow me to choose NO
Then I get the following:
Remove Linux partitions on selected drives and create default layout
The Select the drive(s) to use for this installation
I see
Check for xvda 102399 MB Xen Virtual Block Device
Then I get the ERROR:
The file system-config-services-0.9.4-1.el5.noarch.rpm can not be opened.
I appreciate advice heter

the rpm package, system-config-services-0.9.4-1.el5.0.1.noarch.rpm is not in the first disk,but in second ISO file.
.../Enterprise-R5-U1-Server-x86_64-disc2.iso/Server/system-config-services-0.9.4-1.el5.0.1.noarch.rpm
so you need change to second ISO file. or you may download EL5.1 DVD,and need not switch iso file since all rpm packages in one ISO file.

No display after linux install on Satellite A100

Hi All,
On the weekend I decided to install linux on an extended partition on my toshiba satellite a100. I did a fresh install of windows from the recovery cd and everything worked fine. I then installed linux on an extended partition and my computer displays nothing when starting up - (the LCD has a back-light) and I get all the beeps and it reads from CD's etc. The strange thing is that I can plug it into an external monitor and it works fine. When I start it up with an external monitor I can then switch to the LCD and I get a display but it is very slow and has many imperfections.
I have updated the bios, installed the latest graphics drivers (ati) but still have no improvement. Since the linux install I have removed the extended partition and installed windows from the recovery cd again (still not improvement).
Does anybody have any suggestions as to what I can try next?
Thank you in advanced for your help.

You ask what you can do??
Delete and format the whole HDD and reinstall the OS from the recovery CD.
If you want to use the Linux, I would recommend using a Knoppix. You can get it on the Live CD and its not necessary to install it on the HDD.

Computer freezes before BIOS after arch linux install

This is my first time installing arch linux, I followed the beginners install guide word for word. However, after the install, my computer gets stuck before the BIOS. It identifies the RAM, GPU, and harddrive (all Diagnostic lights are ok on my MOBO). Before the install it booted fine, but now when I boot it up it wont go to the BIOS screen no matter how many times I press delete. However, when I remove the harddrive it boots to the arch linux install screen on my USB drive perfectly.
I know it is not my hardware because I did many different tests (mem-test, swapped out harddrives, tried 1 stick of RAM in different slots, etc). More importantly, my harddrive is brand new so I know it isn't dead because I could partition it when I was installing arch linux.
Computer specs:
AMD Athlon 64 Processor 3700+
DFI LANPARTY nf4-d
ATI Radeon x800
2 GB DDR RAM
160 GB SSD
I have no idea what the problem is, I must have screwed something up with the bootloader or something. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Try clearing the CMOS settings either by removing the motherboard battery for some minutes or by using the relevant jumper on the motherboard. Check the manual of your motherboard for details.

OBI Publisher 11.1.1.5 install questions

Hello,
I am new to OBI Publisher. I need OBIP for production PDF reports that are initiated through an APEX webpage.
I am installing all of these on the same server:
11.2.0.2 database

Which linux and install question

We tried to lay down OEL using Enterprise Linux 4 Update 5 for x86 .
From edelivery we see a few options - new license and media pack. Which option do we select? We have the 99$ license.
Also there are options for Enterprise Linux 4 Update 5 for x86 Source or Enterprise Linux 4 Update 5 for x86 (Part 1 of 4). Which one do we select here?
We're just trying to lay down OEL and run the installer - that's it for now.
The installer choked just before the make. It appears from the SR that the engineer is telling us we are missing necessary rpm's and that a do-over would be the best choice. On the reinstall he's asked that we select Workstation install. We don't see an option for a workstation install as suggested in Note:401167.1. What are we doing wrong?
Do i have the correct ISO's?

System Requirements and Supported Platforms: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10415_01/doc/bi.1013/e10417.pdf
Use of Oracle Enterprise Linux is common, as is Red Hat (of which OEL is a variant). I believe several here use CentOS too, again RH-derived, but I don't think that's a "Supported Platform"

Arch linux install and setup questions

Personally it seems a bit to cumbersome to have to setup xorg etc and is proving to be difficult in getting it to work right. Do they have any arch forks that just auto detect the xorg settings like some of the other distros?
I can't see myself having to setup several of these boxes and doing these install steps one at a time for each one.
It would seem arch could just run a script once installed that would auto sync, download xorg, and setup xorg at the same time.
it would be no different that following each step in the wiki by hand, just via script

itsmeh wrote:Yup it was just an idea , sure people can still do it manual but maybe have something built in to at least take care of the first few steps that most users are going to use
That's the whole point with arch. It's all up to you. Arch doesn't suggest anything for you (exept what you need to get a working linux enviroment).
This is the reason i installed arch. I wanted control over my inviromet and learn more about what's under the hood.
