Oracle 8.1.6 on RH Linux 6 installation problem

I am using Universal Installer to load Oracle 8.1.6 on Red Hat Linux 6 and it isn't able to complete the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant routine. Up until then everything has been fine, but loading DCA results in the following error detail:
SIGSEGV received at bf3ff7f4 in /lib/libpthread.so.0. Processing terminated Writing stack trace to javacore4263,txt ... OK
I used the Java engine that comes with 8.1.6, as recommended. I have read many of the postings and hope that I can get the same great results for my question.
If additional information is needed on my account, please let me know and I will do what I can to collect it.
Thansk for your help.

You can create a database without using those assistants. See section 3.7 of my homepage:
http://homepages.tig.com.au/~jmsalvo/linux/oracle8i.html
In the end, you will "appreciate" the steps (save for OFA) required to get a db up and running.

Linux installation problem on D20

Hi, guys,
I am trying to install Redhat Linux x86_64 5.3 on D20 with a Marvell 88SE63xx/64xx SAS controller. As the Linux installer cannot recognize the SAS controller, I download a driver of Marvell mv64xx for Redhat x86_64 5.2 from Lenovo driver matrix website. Unfortunately, no matter how I follow the instruction to load the driver, the so-called mv64xx doesn't drive the Marvel 88SE63xx/64xx SAS controller in D20, so that the Redhat 5.3 Linux installer cannot find any hard drive. This is ridiculous and ironic because I got 5 SAS 15rpm hard drives in D20. Does anyone know how to resolve this problem and get Redhat Linux 5.3 installed on D20 with SAS drives?
Solved!

hello, good news everyone
today i tested the upcoming kernel 2.6.31-1 with ubuntu server x64 (9.10 / karmic)
and what can i say?

the kernel included the mvsas module and its dependant, and ran out of the box doing anything. and yes, it's a software raid, the bios offers raid 5 and 10, but they are greyed out. okay, my graphic is now broken with 2.6.31-1, but hey, the 5 port's are working i almost forgot where i have put the 500gb disk. hdparm -tT showed 7.8gb/s buffered and 77mb/s normal read, which is normal for the drive.
because of the nature of a module, i believe you have to compile a kernel with support of mvsas on your own to boot linux from it, or you use the ich10 - only for optical drives - sata port, which works fine with the intel x25-m ssd.

Oracle 8i enterprise client linux installation problems

Hi,
I have a problem installing oracle 8i client on linux machine. It gives an error message when I tried to run runInstaller.
this is the error message:
Initializing JAva Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre. Please Wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess():-1
:Bad address
The machine is PII 450 with 128 mb of ram
Thanks,

Gurhan,
I think it has nothing to do setting the JRE enviroment .from what I could remember is you have to install a JRE enviroment patch..
If you check you insallation documentation..
it tell you where to get the patch from..and I also think that you have to create symbolic link...
If you need more info on this..I could send you the URL..where you could get the patch..
send me an email..if you need futher assistance..I could then send you the url to get the patches from...
good luck.

Re:oracle 8.1.6 release 2 post installation problem on linux

hi,
While installing oracle 8.1.6, the one of the optional tool database configuration assistant failed.(DBCA-00047 : unable to create destination directories).
so i tried to create database manually.
so i copied init.ora file as initdemo.ora and edited the file as follows:
db_name=demo
controlfiles=('/disk1/oradata/demo/system01.dbf','/disk2/oradata/demo/system02.dbf')
cdump=/disk1/oradata/demo/cdump
bdump=/disk1/oradata/demo/bdump
udump=/disk1/oradata/demo/udump
then i saved the file.
After that i created a script for database creation as "demo.sql" to create database at nomount stage.
i.e,
create database demo
logfile group1('/disk1/oradata/demo/log1.log',/disk2/oradata/demo/log2.log') size 1000k
group2('/disk1/oradata/demo/log3.log',/disk2/oradata/demo/log4.log') size 1000k
controlfile reuse;
and saved it.
I gave the following commonds at the prompt:
$export $ORACLE_SID=demo
$svrmgrl
SVRMGR>connect internal
connected.
SVRMGR>startup nomount
here i got stuck up as it is not getting starting the instance.
so i tried in SQLPLUS mode
$sqlplus
username/password: sys/oracle as sysdba
Instance is idle.
SQL>startup nomount
LRM-00109 couldnot open parameter file.
ORA-01078 failure in processing system parameters.
so can you tell me where iam going wrong.

[email protected]

The problem is you did not provide a pfile location for the parameter file. Please refer to the sample shell script below where it makes the right calls:
#!/bin/sh
ORACLE_SID=test
export ORACLE_SID
/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.6/bin/svrmgrl << EOF
spool /u01/app/oracle/admin/test/create/crdb1.log
connect internal
startup nomount pfile = "/u01/app/oracle/admin/test/pfile/inittest.ora"
CREATE DATABASE "test"
maxdatafiles 254
maxinstances 8
maxlogfiles 32
character set US7ASCII
national character set US7ASCII
DATAFILE '/u01/oradata/test/system01.dbf' SIZE 100M AUTOEXTEND ON NEXT 640K
logfile '/u05/oradata/test/redo01.log' SIZE 100M,
'/u05/oradata/test/redo02.log' SIZE 100M,
'/u05/oradata/test/redo03.log' SIZE 100M;

Hope this helps !

Howdy, it looks as though the Application Server did not install properly, and as a consequence the Portal server fails to install.
Please make sure that you have un-installed all components properly first before re-installing... See my previous post.
If it were me, I'd install the Directory Server and Application Server first... After a successful install of Application Server, re-start the installer, selecting Portal Server and Access Manager. When doing so, make sure the Application Server and Directory server can be started prior.
By the way, have you seen the following blurb in the documentation from Sun , see: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5025/6n74td5j0?a=view
Remove the link /usr/share/bdb/db.jar before installation, if it exists.
Check ant already exists on the system by running the following command:
rpm -qa | grep ant
If a version of ant below 1.6 is installed, remove it by running the following command:
rpm -e ant-older-version ant-libs-older-version
You need to use the version of ant sun-ant-1.6.5-2 to install or deploy Portal Server. When you run the installer, it is automatically installed at /opt/sun/bin/ant.
Next make sure you following Sun's Documentation on the installation process, bar installing App Server and Directory Server first, see: http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/819-5025/6n74td5j3?a=view
If after all of the above, and your still unable to install portal server, please log a support call with Sun, 1800 555 786 quoting your support contract ID.
Cheers,
Chris

Java Plug-in linux installation problem

Hi!
I am new to this subject, but I want to comment that I have problems installating the java plugin into my netscape 7.0 for Linux. My platform is Red Hat Linux 7.3.
I have followed the instructions written in
http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/install-linux-sdk.html#install-pkg
but I still found that the plugin is not installed. (i.e when I open a web page that
requires java plugin I still see a window saying "this page contains information type
(application/java-vm) that can only be viewed with the appropiate Plug-in..")
and also as confirmation the web page:
http://wp.netscape.com/plugins/manager.html
checks that that it is not installed the plugin.
Would anyone please help me?

You posted a problem that would be answered better and faster in a Linux or Netscape forum.
You posted an installation question to "New to Java...", ignoring the fact that there is an "Installation" forum where you're more likely to get an answer.
You posted a question that has, in fact, been answered in these forums already. You didn't bother to use the "Search" function. Try "plug-in linux install", and check out the first page of results.
You posted a note, and waited FOUR WHOLE HOURS before whining that nobody's helping you. I'm amazed at your display of patience and understanding.
Hint: this is a volunteer forum, inhabited by random Java developers. People answer when and as they have the time or inclination. Nobody here is getting any kind of return from responding. Nobody here owes you ANY response, much less an immediate one.

I'm facing the same error message while install Siebel 8.0 on OEL. But before I had this ksh problem, it complains about disc space first, and I actually has plenty of disk space under the directory (it needs only 0.7 G and I have 17G free). Anybody has encountered such problem before?

Installation of Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4

dear all
I have tried to Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4 but it gives an error "Error in invoking target make file .."
I tried using retries it failed each time to prorceed.
I checked for my binutils ( binutils-2.14.90.0.4-26 ) but mine are higher than binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm required ..
do i need to down grade my binutils for 8.1.7
abhi

Hi Abhi!
If I remember correctly (817 is stone age) the binutils used a strange debug flag in the 2.11.90.0.8-13 (something with -z).
If this is not present in your newer version of the binutils the make will fail.
Try downgrading the binutils during the installation.

Install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto

h2. Install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition on Ubuntu Linux 11.04 (64-bit) Howto
Version: B
Author: Dude, 24. May 2011
The following are step by step instructions how to install Oracle 11gR2 Express Edition (Beta) under Linux Ubuntu 11.04, 64-bit.
Access to the Internet is required.
The instructions cover the following additional topics:
- Converting Red Hat based Oracle XE installer to Ubuntu.
- Work-around for missing /sbin/chkconfig tool.
- Install Oracle XE into a different directory or disk volume.
- Relocate and configure the Oracle user and default login directory.
- Uninstall, reconfigure and perform first database backup.
- Notes and web links.
- Troubleshooting
h3. A) System Setup and Prerequisites
h4. A.1. System Access
You will need terminal command line, root and system console access to perform the setup tasks.
To open a Terminal at the system console:
Menu Applications > Accessories > TerminalThe following commands will enable remote ssh login with root access:
sudo apt-get install openssh-server
sudo passwd root
Verify:
ssh root@xe_server_host_nameh4. A.2. Software Prerequisites
The following is required in order to install Oracle 11gR2 XE:
sudo apt-get install alien libaio1 unixodbcThe following is not required, but it will fix backspace and arrow keys in case you prefer using the vi-editor:
sudo apt-get install vimh4. A.3. System Swap space
Minimum swap space required is 2 GB. You can increase swap space if necessary using a swap file:
To analyze current swap space and memory configuration:
sudo cat /proc/meminfo
To install a 1 GB swapfile named swapfile in /, for example:
sudo dd if=/dev/zero of=/swapfile bs=1024 count=1048576
(this may take a while)
sudo mkswap /swapfile
sudo swapon /swapfile
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.orig
sudo echo '/swapfile swap swap defaults 0 0' >> /etc/fstab
Verify:
sudo swapon -a
sudo swapon -sh4. A.4. Kernel Parameters
Oracle 11g XE requires the following additional kernel parameters:
sudo nano /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf
(Enter the following)
# Oracle 11g XE kernel parameters
fs.file-max=6815744
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range=9000 65000
kernel.sem=250 32000 100 128
kernel.shmmax=536870912
(Save the file)
Note: kernel.shmmax = max possible value, e.g. size of physical RAM.
Verify: sudo cat /etc/sysctl.d/60-oracle.conf
Load new kernel parameters:
sudo service procps start
Verify:
sudo sysctl -q fs.file-max
-> fs.file-max = 6815744h4. A.5. Oracle Installation Directory
The current Oracle Installation Guide uses the same directory like in previous versions: /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/server. However, the current Beta installation uses Oracle Flexible Architecture (OFA) and installs into /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe. Due to size limitations of Oracle XE it may not be necessary to store the installation to a specific directory or separate volume, but it is possible:
Install Oracle XE to separate disk volume:
From the system console menu: System > Administration > Disk Utility
Select "ext3" filesystem for Oracle compatibility and specify a Volume label, e.g. Oracle.
Notice the device name e.g. /dev/sdb
Get the drive UUID:
sudo blkid
e.g. /dev/sdb: UUID="d19a2d8f-da43-4802-8bdb-0703c855e23a"
Modify /etc/fstab to automatically mount the volume at system startup:
sudo cp /etc/fstab /etc/fstab.original
sudo nano /etc/fstab
(Add the following, using determined UUID, for exmple)
UUID=d19a2d8f-da43-4802-8bdb-0703c855e23a /u01 ext3 defaults,errors=remount-ro 0 1
(Save the file)
Create the mount-point, mount the new volume and set ownership and privileges:
sudo mkdir /u01
sudo mount -a
sudo chown root:root /u01
sudo chmod 755 /u01
Verify:
df -h
or restart the systemYou can also install Oracle XE into a specific directory:
Create a symbolic link to store the installation into an existing directory, for instance:
sudo mkdir /home/oracle-xe
sudo ln -s /home/oracle-xe /u01h3. C) Oracle 11g XE Download and Installation
h4. C.1. Download and convert the Installer from Red Hat to Ubuntu
Please see section E.3. to download the Oracle 11gR2 XE installer.
Select the version listed for Linux x64.
sudo unzip linux.x64_11gR2_OracleXE.zip
sudo alien --to-deb --scripts oracle-xe-11.2.0-0.5.x86_64.rpm
(This may take a while)h4. C.2. Create a special chkconfig script
The Red Hat based installer of Oracle XE 11gR2 beta relies on +/sbin/chkconfig+, which is not used in Ubuntu. The chkconfig package available for the current version of Ubuntu produces errors and my not be safe to use. Below is a simple trick to get around the problem and install Oracle XE successfully:
Create /sbin/chconfig:
sudo nano /sbin/chkconfig
(Cut and paste the following)
#!/bin/bash
# Oracle 11gR2 XE installer chkconfig hack for Debian by Dude
file=/etc/init.d/oracle-xe
if [[ ! `tail -n1 $file | grep INIT` ]]; then
   echo >> $file
   echo '### BEGIN INIT INFO' >> $file
   echo '# Provides:             OracleXE' >> $file
   echo '# Required-Start:       $remote_fs $syslog' >> $file
   echo '# Required-Stop:        $remote_fs $syslog' >> $file
   echo '# Default-Start:        2 3 4 5' >> $file
   echo '# Default-Stop:         0 1 6' >> $file
   echo '# Short-Description:    Oracle 11g Express Edition' >> $file
   echo '### END INIT INFO' >> $file
fi
update-rc.d oracle-xe defaults 80 01
(Save the file)
Set appropriate execute privileges:
chmod 755 /sbin/chkconfig
Note: You should remove the /sbin/chkconfig file after successful installation of Oracle XE.
h4. C.3. Install and configure Oracle XE
sudo dpkg --install ./oracle-xe_11.2.0-1.5_amd64.deb
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
(This will take a while)
Remove the /sbin/chkconfig script, which is no longer needed.
sudo rm /sbin/chkconfigh4. C.4. Relocate and Configure the Oracle user login
The Oracle XE installer specifies /u01/app/oracle as the login directory for the Oracle user. Although not really necessary, the following will relocate the Oracle user $HOME to a standard location and create standard /etc/skel login files:
Exit all Oracle user sessions:
sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
sudo kill -9 `ps -ef | grep oracle | grep -v grep | awk '{print $2}'`
sudo userdel oracle
sudo useradd -s /bin/bash -G dba -g dba -m oracle
sudo passwd oracle
Verify:
sudo id oracle
-> uid=1001(oracle) gid=1001(dba) groups=1001(dba)h4. C.5. Setup Oracle environment variables
In order to use sqlplus and other tools, the Oracle account requires certain environment variables. The following will set these variables automatically at every interactive Oracle login:
sudo echo '. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh' >> /home/oracle/.bashrch4. C.6. Oracle sudo root access
It is not essential to allow the Oracle user to use sudo, but it is convenient:
usermod -G admin oracle
Verify:
id oracle
-> uid=1001(oracle) gid=1001(dba) groups=1001(dba),120(admin)
sudo su -
-> Enter Oracle account passwordh4. C.7. Oracle 11g XE Post-installation
After you install Oracle Database XE, its graphical user interface is only available from the local server, but not remotely.
The following will correct the problem if necessary:
Login as user Oracle or use:
su - oracle
sqlplus / as sysdba
At the SQL prompt, enter the following command:
EXEC DBMS_XDB.SETLISTENERLOCALACCESS(FALSE);
exith3. D) Unintstall, Reconfigure and Troubleshooting
h4. D.1. Uninstall Oracle 11g XE
The following will completely uninstall and remove Oracle 11g XE:
Login as user root:
sudo su -
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
dpkg --purge oracle-xe
rm -r /u01/app
rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
update-rc.d -f oracle-xe removeh4. D.2. Reconfigure Oracle 11g XE
Type the following in a terminal window:
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop
sudo rm /etc/default/oracle-xe
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configureh4. D.3. Enable Archivelog mode and perform a database backup
Login as user Oracle:
su - oracle
sqlplus / as sysdba
At the SQL prompt, enter the following commands:
shutdown immediate
startup mount
alter database archivelog;
alter database open;
exit
Login to system console of the Oracle user account:
Select Applications > Oracle Database 11g Express Edition > Backup Databaseh3. E) Notes

Regards and best of luck!
Edited by: Dude on May 25, Version B: various corrections. chkconfig package (A.2.) not required.

even though I am admin user.Admin user is a MS Windows term, that does not apply to Linux or Unix in the same fashion.
The configuration script tells you "You must be root user to run the configure script. Login as root user and
then run the configure script."
This is most likely correct because your account is not root and does not have UID 0. What you can do is to login as root e.g. sudo su -, as the message suggest, or use "sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure", provided your account is defined in the /etc/sudoers file to perform root/admin actions.
Btw, do not modify /etc/passwd and /etc/group to give you admin privileges or try to create a another root account under a different name. That's not the way it works and usually leads to nasty problems.
