Oracle 11g installation Kernel version error

Hi
We are inprocess of installing oracle 11g on solaris 5.10. Our current Solaris 10 is with kernel version (5.10-2008.03.24.13.19). . It requires kernel version (5.10-2008.10). What patch need to be installed for us to achieve this. Please advice.
The following are the operating system requirements for Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2):
* Solaris 10 U6 (5.10-2008.10)
When I check with my OS team they says the currently have kernel patch ID 142909-17, which already Solaris 10 U9.Thus this Domain already fulfill the requirement

You could post to the Installation forum : Database Installation
But you should also log an SR with Oracle Support.

ChangePerm.sh file does not exist in Oracle 11g installation

Hi All,
I have done successful Oracle 11g installation. After installation I noticed that Oracle 11g/installation does not have changePerm.sh file. Did anyone of you seen that?
Without executing changeperm.sh file, the binary files have 751 permission level. ChangePerm.sh script make change in file permission to 755.
Oracle support is not answering me why there was no changePerm.sh file under Oracle_home/install directory.
Thoughts/suggestions..
Thank you
Suresh

I'm not finding this to be the case reliably. I have both a 10G and an 11G install on one particular machine and the 11G installer initially creates the directories with a 755 permission, then right before the prompt to run root.sh, and at the same time it locks down any 10G home it finds (someone please explain that!) it locks down the 11G home too.
In true Murphy tradition, this hasn't happened on any of my testing machines, just my production.
Whatever silly contrived mechanism Oracle wrote to re-lock 10G when installing 11G is also locking down my 11G.

Oracle 10g Apex 2.1 (demo) to Oracle 11g Enterprise full version

I am migrating from Oracle 10g Apex 2.1 (demo) to Oracle 11g Enterprise full version:
Does anyone know if this can be done: The platform is Linux Red Hat - HP Prolient DL380 G2 series:
The demo version Oracle 10g apex 2.1 which was utilizined has a proof of concept...has now been approved to move forward with Oracle 11g Enterprise full version
I was thinking: Do I export all the applications, tables,and data. Then un-install Oracle 10g and the install Oralce 11g. Then finaly, import the applications, tables,and data.
OR .... can in be migrated....????

Hello:
It is possible to upgrade your 10gR2 database to 11g and have APEX upgraded to 3.0 at the same time.

Peoplesoft HCM 9.1/Oracle 11g installation on Windows 7

Hello All,
I am trying to install Peoplesoft HCM 9.1 / Oracle 11g on windows 7 64-bit platform ( laptop).
So far, I installed the loopback adapter and then installed Oracle 11g database enterprose version successfully. I can login to the database via SQL Developer.
I have couple of questions...
1. Since I am installing everything on the same m/c , will i still need to install oracle client?
2. Do I need both 32 bit and 64 bit client ?
3. If I need client, do they go into the same location where the Oracle 11g database sits ?
Thanks for all your help in advance!

Oracle 11g installation on Oracle Enterprise Linux, 64bit version.

Hi
I want to install oracle 11g on Oracle Enterprise Linux, 64bit version.
Do I need to set kernel parameters in this operating system, since it is not standart Linux editions.
or
Can I have a step by step documentation for installing oracle 11g on this operating system?

Hello,
Yes you do need to set kernal parameters in order to meet pre-requisites, otherwise your installation will fail and oracle might not work or unstable.

That's right this is not related to the above problem, so the gcc issue could be considered as solved. Oracle 11g requires you to have about 1.5 the amount of RAM, if your swap is not configured to meet this requirement, then you should manually configure additional swap space. This should not prevent the process from continuing as long as you check the User Verified box. You can continue and if you notice an increase in the swap space consumption at execution time, then increase the swap area by using swap file space as this example illustrates:
How to create a swapFile
Short on memory? Under 128MB is. Then build a swap file.
Go to Start > Run > Rxvt
Type, then press Enter:
dd if=/dev/zero of=/mnt/home/puppy.swp bs=1024 count=800k
Be patient. This will take several minutes.
That 800k translates to 800MB (819,200KB).
So decrease according to available disk space.
Type, then press Enter:
mkswap /mnt/home/puppy.swp
Type, then press Enter:
swapon /mnt/home/puppy.swp
Go to Start > File Managers > uXplor
Drill down to /root/.etc/rc.d/rc.local and right-click and select edit.
Add this line to the bottom:
swapon /mnt/home/puppy.swp
Save the file. This will turn on the swap file upon next boot.

Oracle 11g installation on Linux Enterprise 5 remains hanging at 43%!

Hi all,
as per Subject, I have installed a Linux Enterprise 5 OS downloaded by Oracle Download Center and it is now installed following the nice Guide here.
I have added the missing Linux packages and set up the kernel parameters as per Guide quoted above.
If I launch the Oracle installation, it completes the packages and parameters check fine, install goes fine until 43% and then hangs.
It's not freezing as the Installation window shows ongoing animations, if I try to stop installation it responds immediately asking for confirmation.
It just hangs up!
The Linux machine is actually on a VMWare image on a MacOS Leopard host.
I have tried it on my laptop and desktop as well, but the hang point keeps being the same.
Any idea?
Thanks in advance.

Hello;
I used several versions on Linux but not that one.
That said the error :
libXext.so.6: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directoryResolution : Install the libXp package
So you are missing at least one of the "extra" packages needed for an Oracle install.
I found some posts that make me believe Cent 6 isn't quite ready for Oracle 11 :

ORACLE 11G INSTALLATION PROBLEM ON WIN7 32 bit

okay i intalled the 11g edition but quite unsuccesfully . This is the view of start menu entry
start->allprograms->oracle 11g express edition->empty
Well, it shouldn't be like this !
Can't figure out why ?
Edited by: 908289 on Jan 16, 2012 3:52 AM
Edited by: 908289 on Jan 16, 2012 7:59 AM

i have the folder named oracleexe and app folder inside it . so this is what i should get as installed folders i guess !!Yes, that's what you can expect after a successful installation. Take a look in the direct ".\oracle\product\11.2.0\server" below the "app" directory. Do you see some url-link files there? (Despite several other subdirectories, of course...)
Two of them should be the "Database_homepage" and "Get_Started". Try to call them.
And Oracle XE service is started . Well, that's great. Sounds like all you lack is the links in you task menu.
i couldn't quite get you here . which software/ programs are you referring to ? The start menu entry created is shown already as it is in the problem above and installation folders are there as i mentioned above . what else ,you refferring to ?I just wanted to check whether the installer has registered the database in the Windows list. This is part of a successful installation and would offer you the opporunity to uninstall (and perhaps reinstall) the whole package.
Also , i am not sure which lOG file to check there because there are a lot of them !!As your database seems to be running as noted above, it doesn't seem to be necessary to go into these details.
You should be able to access your database, either by using the links mentioned above, or, if these failed to be created, by calling the URLs by hand, e.g.
http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950 for "Get_Started" and
http://127.0.0.1:8080/htmldb for the "Database_homepage".
You should also be able to use the command line tool by calling sqlplus from a command window.
If that doesn't satisfy you or you face any errors, you could try to reinstall.

Oracle 11G Dev - Local Version stops working

Hi All,
I've had a local version of Oracle 11G running on my laptop for a number of weeks, I set it up once and it's worked ever since. Until this week.
I tend to work in various locations, sometimes I am working with no network, other times I VPN to a network using a Mobile Broadband dongle, other times I use a LAN to access the network.
The problem I'm having is that my console service has stopped working and whilst the listener is running i'm getting an error when I test the connection, doing a TNSPING comes back with an error yet this was working absolutely fine yesterday - I've simply logged off a vpn and logged back on.
I saw another post here about making a copy of a directory in ..\j2ee\ and putting 'localhost' in the directory name in place of the computer name. This seemed to work yesterday but am getting the same issue today where I can't connect to the local db running on my laptop.
I can reconfigure the listener each time I change network access method but it seems bonkers to have to do that each time.
So have a feeling I've done something wrong because I can't see it being this much hassle to run a local copy of oracle.
can someone please help me get a robust version working which doesn't care if you run on no network, a vpn or a LAN?
cheers!!

Try `dirname --help' for more information.

Does anyone have any idea why I'm getting these error and how I can fix them
I tried creating the directories in this path /home/oracle//install/.oui and used the touch command to create the .oui file. The I did a chown -R oracle:oinstall on all the directories and files except the /home directory in the following path /home/oracle//install/.oui, but I still got the following error:

I did as follows:
Double check that you are logged in as oracle and not root, and that the environment variables have been set by the login script you prepared earlier. Then change to your home directory and start the Oracle Universal Installer with a command like one of the following:
$ /database/runInstaller
or
$ /runInstaller

[oracle@dgdba install]$You can change directories until the cows come home, but it doesn't matter as long as you keep telling the shell processor to find "runInstaller" in the root directory.
find /home/oracle -name runInstaller -ls -lcd to whatever directory you find is the location for runInstaller. Let's say it is in /home/oracle/source/database
cd /home/oracle/source/database
./runInstallerNote that is dot, slash, filename. The 'dot' says 'look for the file in the current directory'. when you say '/runInstaller' you are saying to look for the file in the root directory.
Oh, and make sure you can execute xclock or xeyes first. If you can't, you won't be able to execute runInstaller either.
