ODI Installation in Ubuntu

I am new to Oracle Data Integrator and tried having it in my Ubuntu machine, but when I run the installer, the following error message appears;
“Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2009-11-23_22-15-01PM. Please wait …sh: /home/Oracle/CD_10.1.3.5.0_LINUX/setup/Linux/Disk1/install/unzip: Permission denied”. Although I chmod the runInstaller, I still get the problem. I tried even to install as "sudo" but still get the same error.
Thanks

Hello Sutirtha
Thanks for the quick reply. Before then, I was able to get it going by changing the permission mode of the script file "unzip". On way, I encountered another problem, an error message;
WARNING: NIS Detected.
Please ensure that the services entry uses files,
otherwise this installation of the Metabase may not

Writing installation log to: /home/odi/OraHome_1/oracledq/metabase_server/metabase/etc/setup.log

Root installation finished.
When I tried manually to restart inetd with this command, /etc/init.d/inetd restart, I got the message that "command not found"
I appreciate your efforts.

Multiple users on the same ODI installation?

Hi all
is it possible to have multiple users working with the same odi installation? We have a virtualized IT infrastructure (citrix and wmware) where we can have multiple users on the same virtual instance. From our point of view, there is no licencing issue since we have a package covering literally everything.
One of the issues are the config files stored in the installation directory of odi (../bin). Is there a way to tell odi to store them in a different location, eg. the user home?
Thanks a lot
Benno

ODI looks in the current working directory for the configuration files, mostly you would have issues with the snps_login_work.xml and snps_login_security.xml files, but these may be common across all users. (just don't store the username/passwords for the ODI users in them).
The way ODI works, most of what are creating is stored in the repository anyway, it is only local GUI config stuff that may be stored locally.
Short answer, yes, you can, but might need to modify the config files a little to make it work.

Master repo,Work Repo and ODI installation

Hi,
I have following doubts for windows flatform.
I am integrating two application systems say A(source) & B(Target) thier data located in different oracle db servers.
1) ODI server installation will be on source server/target/any other machine?
2)Where should i create master & work repositories on source/target server?
3)If my target is remote host then where can i install and run agents?
4)While creating physical schemas we can select the work schema as different,is this work schema acts like staging area? while designing the interfaces should i select this work schema as staging area? what is benefit of having this work schema different than my soruce/target schema.?
5) I read that ODI will create temparory tables while executing ODI objects each time and these tables are junk data,should i drop all these temp tables in work schema,even after or before execution of the interface?
Please clarify,
Thanks.

Hi,
Find my answers as below,
1) ODI server installation will be on source server/target/any other machine? Its always recommend to install ODI in your TARGET server for good performance.
2)Where should i create master & work repositories on source/target server?In TARGET server and make sure u have dedicated schema for work and master repos.
3)If my target is remote host then where can i install and run agents?Again in TARGET host , u can only install ODI run time agent in seperate servers, have a look at ODI installation guide.
4)While creating physical schemas we can select the work schema as different,is this work schema acts like staging area? Yes ODI will make use of work schema to create temparory tables ($ tables) and which will act like a staging area.
while designing the interfaces should i select this work schema as staging area? No need to select any work schema as such while designing interface, only u need to select the respective LOGICAL schema which implicitly create the $ tables in the work schema u selected in PHYSICAL schema.
what is benefit of having this work schema different than my soruce/target schema.? You will not require to have a dedicated "staging area" to consolidate your data from multiple/single source.
5) I read that ODI will create temparory tables while executing ODI objects each time and these tables are junk data,should i drop all these temp tables in work schema,even after or before execution of the interface?No need. ODI will take care of DROPPING and CREATING $ tables on FLY.
For simple data integration, 2 tables will be created at runtime, C$ and I$ which in turn will be dropped after loading to TARGET table.
Makes sense?
P.S: Experts comments are welcome.
Thanks,

Errors during Oracle 11gR2 Installation on Ubuntu

Hello everyone,
I known that Ubuntu ( and i'm talking about 10.04 or his latest version) is not the official version of OS for Oracle, but I'm trying do to a different work with students and they are more familiar with Ubuntu interface, but, when i'm trying to do Oracle installation on Ubuntu machine, i'm getting different kind of errors and i can't successfully finalize the installation. The list below show libs who OUI "complains" during the instalation, even every lib already installed and a list of prerequisites that are failed and will be show on the screen.
Please, can anyone help me with this steps. Sombody have some guide for this kind of instalation. The instalation on Ubuntu is a prerequisites

As you stated, Ubuntu is not a certified distro for Oracle installs - so errors should be expected. Google for sites (like http://www.pythian.com/blog/installing-oracle-11gr2-enterprise-edition-on-ubuntu-10-04-lucid-lynx/) where others have documented their experiences. Also, just because you are able to install the software successfully does not mean it will work as advertised.

Clarifications on ODI installation (for FDM ERPi to drill through EBS)

This is for drilling EBS from HFM and Planning through FDM. EPM is 11.1.2.2. ODI is 11.1.1.6.0.
A sharing on the steps I am going to perform, anyone who has done it before or idea on how to do so please help me to have a look and validate. I found documentation on EPM and ODI installation separately but I don't find step-by-step guide to make the subject configuration work. Please let me know if you know one. Thanks a lot.
The FDM ERPi component will be configured AFTER ODI is up and running. FDM and all other EPM components are up-and-running before the ODI installation.
Steps to install/configure ODI:
1. Create DB schema, one for MASTER and one for WORK, grant DB access according to the install guide
2. Use Oracle RCU (Repository Creation Utility) v11.1.1.3.3 to populate the MASTER and WORK tables
3. run ODI installer, using the jdk160 located in the ORACLE middleware home directory
4. select all available components of ODI for installation i.e. ODI Studio (with local agent), ODI SDK, Standalone Installation, all under Java EE installation (Java EE Agent, ODI Console, Public Web Service)
Have read the manual up to here, will update the thread when I go further, again feel free to comment.
Last step, to trigger EPM configurator to configure the ERPi component

Hello,
In the situation you have described unless the Authentication mechanism and the style of that mechanism for all the environments (in this sitaution Hyperion vs. Oracle EBS) are identical then there is no unified approach. Generally when going from Hyperion into Oracle EBS the EBS landing page is returned prompting you for valid credentials.
In order for this to work in on seemless move you would have to use OID with OSSO.
OID = Oracle Internet Directory
OSSO = Oracle Single Sign On
Thank you,

Configure BI Apps on ODI installation

Hi All,
we have installed ODI 11g and BI Applications 11.1.1.8 (on Windows Server 2008) and we have need to use BI Apps (like standard mapping SDE, SIL, PLP ecc).
Our installation works correctly, but, under “Projects” tab, we don’t have any object.
How we can “configure” BI Apps on our ODI installation?
Thanks in advance.
Luca

Hi
I stand to be corrected but...my understanding is that Oracle wanted to move away from informatica as the etl tool and released the 7.9.5.2 fusion edition with ODI.
Then there was a change of direction and the later 7.9.6 releases are all supplied with an oem version of informatica.
If you going with 7.9.6.1 and you do not want to use informatica you will have to custom build your etls....

Installation on Ubuntu 10.04, Lucid Lynx

Hi all,
this is my first post here. :D
I've just successfully installed on Ubuntu 10.04, Lucid Lynx, and wanted to share the steps that it took and summarize the information I gathered from plenty of Google searches and searches of this forum; maybe they are useful to someone else:
1. Increased swap (more information in English at https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SwapFaq and German at http://wiki.ubuntuusers.de/swap).
2. Installed Oracle Database 10g Express Edition as explained here:
sudo apt-get install libaio1
sudo dpkg -i oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configureI answered the questions about the ports with the default answers (8080 and 1521) and "no" for starting the database on boot.
After that, I was able to access the database home page at http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
3. After next reboot with my normal user account "carsten" I was not able to start the database and not able to access http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex
Following thread {message:id=4106998} that is linking to post http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php?p=7838671&postcount=4 in the Ubuntu forums, I also:
added myself to the dba group,
sudo usermod -a -G dba carstenmade the listener log writable by the dba group,
sudo chmod g+w /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/log/listener.logmade sure the env vars are set for everyone,
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oracle_env.sh /etc/profile.d/oracle_env.shchanged *#!/bin/sh* to *#!/bin/bash* in nls_lang.sh,
sudo gedit /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/nls_lang.shand for being able to login as Ubuntu user "oracle" I set a password (this last step is optional, I needed to login as the "oracle" user for testing, but now it's no longer necessary).
sudo passwd oracle-----
After the next reboot (not strictly required...), logging in again with my normal Ubuntu user "carsten", I can successfully start and stop the database via the gnome Applications menu and start the listener at the terminal with
lsnrctl startWhen both the database and the listener are running, http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex can be accessed in a web browser. Installation complete! :x
This is also the first time that I use an Oracle DB, and I'd be happy about any thoughts or feed-back!
Best regards,
Carsten

well I tried reinstalling because I have double checked and know for certain that I had followed all the installation steps.
Earlier I had put the path export lines in both my .bashrc file and in the /etc/bash.bashrc file and apparently that was allowing "oracle" user to find sqlplus.
Now that I removed that I can't even log in with oracle because it says "command not found"
I tried re-installing with su - instead of sudo because another post at this forum said that is what you are supposed to do.
Now the error I get from sqlplus sys as sysdba is "could not create audit file"
I found the init.ora file and commented out the line audit_file_dest.
I tried changing permissions on the adump directory.
Still get "could not create audit file"
Also I've seen mentioned in a couple of posts that root.sh should be run at the end of the install. What is that and how do you run it? Is that even anything to do with my problem?
Thanks

Cannot complete installation on Ubuntu 8.04

I have some experience installing Oracle Standard / SE One on Windows 2003 Server, and in general I have no problems.
I am new to Ubuntu/Linux and I like it. I am also new to Oracle XE. I have made several trials to get Oracle running on Ubuntu and I just can't. Sometimes it installs and I even can log into SQL plus as SYS and run some selects. But the XE home page never displays. Last time when configuring Oracle it says port 8080 is invalid and doesn't accept any other port.
As I don't know Linux very well, I'd like to know if it is necessary to create an Oracle user and then install Oracle as root, but within Oracle user, or is it the same if I create the user Francisco and install Oracle as root within Francisco user? Or what is the way? I cannot log in as root in Ubuntu desktop. Also, where do I have to save the .deb package in order to unpack it, and should I run it from the full path or reference it from outside (another directory)? I just got lost in linux directory structure.
I have reinstalled Ubuntu completely to do an Oracle fresh install, and got no results.
The installation steps in Oracle manuals are very clear, I'd like to have some advice on the PRE-installation requirements.
Thanks,
Francisco.

You may need to set the port through
exec dbms_xdb.sethttpport(<port>);Then you should also check if the listener is up and running
And make sure that you don't have any firewall settings that would prevent access

Last time I tried the debian package, the Oracle user was automatically created by that package. No need to add your own user, unless you want to.

You don't have to. If you want to have root access, try
sudo -sif I remember correctly.

Just save it in the /tmp directory or any other download directory. Installation is done through the dkpg command, if I remember correctly.

ODI installation error while installing Public Services

Hi All,
I was trying to install ODI 11.1.1.7 after downloading the setup files from e-delivery.
During the installation of Public web services, the setup prompts an error saying " stage\components\oracle.odi.webservice .......filegroup2.jar" is cannot be found.
I checked my extracted files and found out that it was not present there.
Am I missing out anything or it is part of the odi companion files ?

The issue is actually with the setup files available on e-delivery. If you download the ODI setup available under EPM 11.1.2.3, the webservices, agent etc files are missing from the setup. First observation is the overall size of file is 1.7 GB which includes files from both Disk1 & Disk 2.
For whole setup, download the setup from the ODI download page or from Oracle Business Intelligence page on e-delivery. In both the cases, whole setup is split into 2 disks of 1.7 and 1.1 GB respectively. After downloading them I did not face any issue.

ODI installation out of Oracle home

Hi,
I have to install Oracle Data Integrator on a development server where EPM 11.1.2 is already installed. I encounter the following error after setting the install folder (I leave it to default: D:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1):
OUI-10044: The selected Oracle Home location already contains an Oracle Home
or APPL_TOP created while running a different OS
I've done some research and found [ that post|http://gerardnico.com/wiki/database/oracle/oui-10044], which didn't help much.
Basically my ODI file shiphomeproperties.xml shows an OS id 233, which is good.
The problem might be that I have two Oracle folders under C:/. One under "Program Files(x86)" that shows an OS id of 912 and another under "Program Files" which shows an OS id 233. Now I'm guessing that the Oracle installer looks into the wrong file...
Now I might have a workaround, if I change the default install folder, for example to Oracle1, I can access the next step.
My question is to know if it's ok to installl ODI in another Oracle home, is it ok to have two oracle home ?
thanks for your help.

Oracle 11g Client Installation on Ubuntu

Hi, I tried to install the Oracle 11g Client on my Dell Inspiron laptop running ubuntu, the thing is that I did every step described in the Installation Guide but when I ran the ./runInstaller file, at the installation point the assistant raises an error and prompts for an action (Ignore, Retry, Cancel), and even if I choose ignore it keeps raising the same error, then I noticed in my terminal that the errors was because ubuntu couldn't find some commands used in the installation script, and that there was no installation steps for ubuntu in my guide, so I think the Client Installer I downloaded wasn't for ubuntu... could be the reason why I can't install the client? is there a script or some way to install the client on ubuntu?
Thanks!
Edited by: user10232758 on Oct 23, 2008 7:34 AM

Unfortunately there's no (official) installation guide from Oracle,because it's not supported. If you want to continue go to the Linux Technology Center on OTN and follow the instructions for unsupported platforms (under Installation Guides):

OBIEE installation in Ubuntu 9.10

Hi Experts,
I am new to Ubuntu and am exploring Linux for the first time, I am a developer in Oracle but I want to learn OBIEE in Linux, but some how when I install, it says that the platform should be either RedHat or Suse, I do not know how to proceed further.
Please help me as I have made all installation my self,which took me 2 days full, now I cannot go back to windows or any other platform to make this happen.
Please help out.. Real urgent.
Regards,
Rakesh

Welcome to the forums !
What version of OBIEE and Ubuntu ? AFAIK, OBIEE is not certified on Ubuntu - so the hack of ignoring system prereqs may or may not work - it may also cause issues after the install.

While re-installing ODI I have completely removed folder created while installation but I am able to see ODI folder in ALL Programs list.
When installation stucked after 97% I closed it and removed folders and tried to reinstall but not able to.
Please suggest.

I am using jdk1.7.0_09. Earlier it was installed on my machinge but because of some reason I uninstalled it but unable to re-install it.

Installation jdeveloper & ubuntu 12.10

For those with the same problem. here is the problem and the solution.
Problem:
After installing jdeveloper 11 studio in ubuntu, an error appears when starting up.
Solution:
The problem is the jdk bundled in jdeveloper. Download a newer JDK 6 (I did it with 1.6.0_33), then go to jdev.conf and replace SetJavaHome property with the new location.
Probably there is no problem when you download the jdeveloper generic installation.
Stack trace (for searches):
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: /home/oracle/Middleware/jdk160_24/jre/lib/i386/libsplashscreen.so: libX11.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Hi everyone,
FIrst of all thanks for the reply - greatly appreciated. I find the oracle software was quite 'hard to deal with'
Starting from all the problem that I have when i want to try to connect oracle 64 bit with a SAS 32 bit and this oracle 11g R2 on ubuntu 12.10.
I finally able to install the oracle 11g R2 'express edition' on my ubuntu 12.04 LTS. I follow the instructions in this blog to do that (highly recommend for all other people who would like to install oracle 11g R2 express edition on ubuntu 12.04 LTS 64 bit)
http://meandmyubuntulinux.blogspot.ca/2012/05/installing-oracle-11g-r2-express.html
To be honest, I am quite stock with how hard it is to install oracle on ubuntu Why would you be shocked at that? Doesn't Oracle provide a list of supported OS's in the Installation Guide? Yes, it does. Is Ubuntu included in that list of supported OS's? No, it is not. And given that Ubuntu is a bit of an 'outlier' in the Linux world, what else would you expect?
and also how to install java jdk 1.6 (and it has to be 1.6 - it cannot be java 7 since oracle doesnt support that as well)
For me, i think it is really strange since i thought oracle and java and sun microsystem (spark/solaris) are one big family and yet they dont support each other.Then you have a lot to learn about software and the software industry.
Sometime around 1994 or 1995 I went to a class on the rDB database, developed by DEC. Oracle had just purchased the rdb from DEC. The instructor (who had been a DEC employee prior to the purchase) explained how Oracle had expected to fold rdb into the flagship Oracle database. Of course, that plan was hatched up by the 'suits'. Once the engineers were able to get together, it was figured out there was no way the products could be merged, and to this day Oracle maintains rdb as a separate and distinct product.
So, class, what lesson do we learn from this?
