Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat 7.2, "dbassist " failed to start 4 of 5 times

I followed Thomasfly's tips and other posts here(many thanks), the server was installed successfully.
When I tried to create a database, usally I needed to restart "dbassist" 5 times to make it bring up the windows.
Anyone has a clue of this issuse? Thank you. I didn't find it in the forum(I'm also new here). I'm downloading SuSE(and thinking about buying a sparc).

ok i had installed on 2.2.16 y 2.2.18.
if u want to make a kernel update what you should do is to get the new kerner in www.kernel.org and before to do it , you should installed (i.e
cd /usr/src/
rm /usr/src/linux -rf
tar -zxvf kernel2.2.18.tar.gz
go to startx and open a Terminal as a root
make xconfig (to tunne your system)
make bzlilo
your kernel is update?
i hope that this information could help

Oracle Service Bus 11g (11.1.1.3.0) failing to start

I have installed Oracle Weblogic 10.3.3 (11g with Patch Set2) on a Windows XP SP2 32-bit machine. I was able to configure and start the AdminServer without any issues. Next, I installed Oracle Service Bus 11g (11.1.1.3.0) on top of WLS 10.3.3 (11g) on the same machine. I extended the previous weblogic domain (AdminServer only) to include Oracle Service Bus (OSB) features. OSB server was configured successfully.
However, the AdminServer and OSB server is now failing to start successfully. It is failing to deploy and load the OSB applications (e.g. - OSB Console, File Adapter, SB Transport Adapter etc. ). While configuring the OSB domain, OSB application got targeted to both AdminServer and OSB server. Have you encountered this issue before? I tried to start the managed server from command prompt and Admin console

Unable to start ORACLE 8.1.5 on RedHat 6.2

completed installation of Oracle 8.1.5 on Redhat 6.2.
dbassist reports that it had created a database for me.
But I am unable to "STARTUP" the oracle instance successfully.
I get "Load Indicator not supported by OS" message in the "alert" log.

See the solution to that in my FAQ/Miscellaneous section:

HELP! Can not install Oracle 8.1.5 w/ RedHat 6.1!

I can not get Oracle 8.1.5 to install onto Linux RedHat 6.1. The
Oracle installation script generates several errors. I have
tried several attempts, using different options, but they all
generate errors.
Please help. The Oracle Installation scripts appear to be very
buggy... or perhaps they are incompatible with the standard
RedHat 6.1 release. Either way, it is very frustrating.
I have documented one of my (failed) installation attempts below.
Does anyone have any words of wisdom?
I am installing Oracle onto a Dell Latitude CPi PC w/ 128MB RAM,
a 366MHz Pentium II, and RedHat 6.1 (using the standard Linux
2.2.12-2 kernel). RedHat was installed using the standard "Gnome
Workstation" configuration.
The Oralce CD is labeled:
"Oralce 8i Enterprise Edition
Release 8.1.5
for Linux
(c) Oracle Corporation 1999"
I got this CD about one week ago at Oracle OpenWorld '99 in Los
Angeles... it should be their "latest & greatest" version so far.
1. Pre-Installation and ./runInstall
I created an "oracle" Unix account w/ groups "oinstall" (the
primary group) and "dba" (a secondary group).
I created directories /u01 through /u04, belonging to oracle.
I setup .cshrc and sourced it, containing:
umask 022
setenv DISPLAY `hostname`:0
xhost +
setenv ORACLE_BASE /u01/app/oracle
setenv ORACLE_HOME ${ORACLE_BASE}/product/8.1.5
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest
setenv PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/bin:${PATH}
setenv LD_LIBRARY_PATH ${ORACLE_HOME}/lib
setenv NLS_LANG US7ASCII
I downloaded jre116_v5 and installed to /usr/local/jre.
Finally, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /mnt/cdrom
./runInstall
Problem: I got the error (from ./runInstall):
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre.
Please wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address
Workaround: Executed the following commands instead:
cd /mnt/cdrom/install/linux
./runIns.sh
3. runIns.sh and root.sh
I selected the following options (from ./runIns.sh):
Source: /mnt/cdrom/stage/products.jar
Destination: /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition 8.1.5.0.0
Typical (585MB)
Installable Components: Oralce Intelligent Agent 8.1.5.0.0
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Directory for Database Files: /u02
Then (when instructed by ./runIns.sh), I attempted to execute
(from the
"root" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5
./root.sh
Problem: I got the error:
"bash: ./root.sh: Permission denied"
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x root.sh
./root.sh
5. Configuration Tools
The Oracle Installer (./runIns.sh) attempted to execute:
A. Net8 Configuration Agent
B. Oracle Database Configuration Agent
Problem: The "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" failed with
the following error message:
"One or more tools have failed. It is recommended but not
required that these tools succeed for this installation.
You can now select these tools, read its details to examine
why they have failed, fix those problems, and retry them.
Or, you can click "Next" to continue."
When I selected the "Oracle Database Configuration Agent" for
more info, I got the following additional details (as the cause
of the error):
"A required command line argument is missing."
The log file
"/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/logs/installActions.log" recorded:
"Command which is being spawned is /usr/local/jre/bin/jre

Workaround: There is obviously nothing I can do to fix this
problem. It appears to be an internal bug in ./runIns.sh.
Therefore, I selected "Next" and executed "dbassist" directly.
6. dbassist
I executed:
dbassist
Problem: I got the following error:
"JNLS Execution:oracle.ntpg.jnls.JNLSException
Unable to find any National Character Sets. Please
check your Oracle installation."
Workaround: Press "OK" and ignore the error.
7. dbassist (cont.)
I selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Copy existing database files from the CD
Global Database Name: cprtest.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest
Problem: I got the following error:
"CD-ROM drive not detected on this system.
Database not created."
(Note: I've been running the installation scripts from the
CDROM drive this entire time. "df" shows the CDROM drive
mounted on /mnt/cdrom. "ls /mnt/cdrom" works too.)
Workaround: Abort (which generated the additional error: "Unable
to create database. DBCA-00003: No CD-ROM drive detected.") and
run dbassist again, this time using different parameters.
8. dbassist, again
I executed "dbassist" again and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and iM demos
Global Database Name: cprtest2.parkrussell.com
SID: cprtest2
Create database now
Problem: I got the following error:
"ORA-01012: not logged on"
Workaround: Try, try again.
9. dbassist, one last time
Executed "dbassist" once more and selected the following options:
Create database
Typical
Create new database files
Hybrid
Concurrently connected users: 5
Options: Oralce interMedia, Oralce JServer, and interMedia
demos
Global Database Name: cprtest3.parkrussell.com

Then, I executed (from the "oracle" Unix account):
cd /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/install
setenv ORACLE_SID cprtest3
./sqlcprtest3.sh
Problem: I got the following output:
"Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.5.0.0 - Production

Workaround: Beats me.
10. sqlplus
I attempted to execute sqlplus, but got the following error
message:
"/u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus: Permission denied."
The execute bit was not set.
Workaround: I executed:
chmod a+x /u01/app/oracle/product/8.1.5/bin/sqlplus
sqlplus
I gave up for now... there were just too many things wrong with
this installation, starting with the very first command I was
supposed to execute (./runInstaller).
I can't fathom why Oracle's installation script has so many bugs.
Am I just doing something terribly wrong?
Please help.

I'm using enlightenment version 0.15.5-41, which is more recent
than the 0.15.5-37 version (containing the Oracle installer
patch) that you recommended. Unfortunately, it fails when using
this version.
I also tried installing Oracle using twm, with enlightenment
disabled. This didn't help either.
Furthermore, the errors that I'm encountering in the OUI are
not just toward the end of the installation. They happen from
the very beginning, right after I enter "./runInstall", and
continue every step of the way.

I think 6.2 is easier, just follow read me instruction, on redhat 7.0 you must run patch to downgrade glibc from 2.2 to 2.1

Even i have the same problem installing oracle 8.1.6. I tried tracing using strace and found the jre is going in a loop with
SIGNAL SIGSEGV segmentation violation. Is there any work around for this
possible reasons
1. GLIC compatability 2.1 is required.
i havent tried yet but i believe this should work, before starting runInstaller
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.(5 or 14).
run /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/bin/i386-glibc21-linux-env.sh
still if it doesnt try the patch
glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar
could any one think of an alternative.
please please post the feedback
thanks

I have downloaded the compat glibc 2.1.3.2 and copied the files etc, but when I run the "runInstaller" from the command line, all I get is:
"[oracle] /mnt/cdrom=$ Initializing Java Virtual Machine from ../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.8/1/DataFiles/Expanded/linux/bin/jre. Please wait..." It eventually comes back to the command prompt, but no GUI insatller. Any ideas???<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

I think 6.2 is easier, just follow read me instruction, on redhat 7.0 you must run patch to downgrade glibc from 2.2 to 2.1

Oracle 8.1.5 on Redhat 6.0

I have installed Oracle 8.1.5 on Redhat 6.0 after many attempts.
I have tried to apply the patch by running the script linux_81501patch_ee.sh but got many compilation errors.
For example, in the compilation of sqlplus, I got the following errors:
/home/oracle/lib/nautab.o(.rodata+0x8): undefined reference to `nauzaoss'
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
gmake: *** [sqlplus] Error 1
Anybody got any idea ??

I've been dealing with the same problems in the english version but could bypass thiss by doing the folowing.
-Just ignore the disk space stuff
-Ignore the charset message, also
-When creating a database, choose custom and then select the WE8ISO8859P1 char set. It worked for portuguese, must work for french also.
-Everyone here recommended, and I do the same, leave the database creation for later, not during instalation.
Good Luck!

Problems With Oracle 8.1.7 on RedHat 7.1

Hi,
I can not even start the installation program, it just stays in

Can some body help me?
Thanx Alot!

got this info from different posts & other sources, here it is
in one
place, here's what worked for me:
to install oracle 8.1.7 on redhat 7.1 (i686):
1. make sure you have oracle 8.1.7.1 (this is release 3), the
latest
ver on the oracle d/l site
2. download the stub file they have on the same d/l page-
glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar.gz
3. set up your oracle mount points, groups, etc as per oracle
instructions
4. untar the oracle817 file
4. add this to your oracle user's .bash_profile (or however you
set
env variables):
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
(and add LD_ASSUME_KERNEL to the export line as well)
5. instead of running ./runInstaller, like oracle says, use
install/linux/runInstaller (this one works)
6. I chose a pretty slim install- none of the oracle optional
features
(esp not the apache module, which needs the 118 jvm). Definitely
tell
it not to create a database during the install (won't work).
7. Two kinds of errors can happen during the install:
installation
errs (which I didn't get, but which I have read can be solved by
copying the files oracle says it can't copy by hand) and linking
errors, which are expected.
8. fixing the linking errors- this is done with the stub lib
supplied
by oracle. although the readme that accompanies it (on the oracle
site) says to perform an install, then install the stub lib, it
worked
for me to:
-perform the install
-at the first linking error (error in invoking target
relink of
makefile...), it will ask you abort/retry/ignore, open another
terminal window and install the stub lib as per the oracle
instructions. (except for one thing: although the file has a .gz
extension, it is really just a tar file, so skip the z option,
e.g.
use tar xvf glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar.gz). once the stub lib is
installed,
hit retry on the error message dialog.
9. last step: when the installer asks you to run root.sh as root,
don't- there is a syntax error in root.sh you have to fix first.
it is
on line 155 and is missing a single quote near the end. change
it from
RUID=`/usr/bin/id|$AWK -F$ '{print $2}'|$AWK -F$ '{print $1}`
to
RUID=`/usr/bin/id|$AWK -F$ '{print $2}'|$AWK -F$ '{print $1}'`
save it and run it. this got me through the install process with
no
errors.

Problems in Pro*C installation for Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat Linux 6.2

Hello,
I have installed Oracle 8.1.7 on Redhat Linux 6.2. After installing Proc and doing necessary changes in pcscfg.cfg file. I tried to compile demo programs. But I am getting following error while compiling.
Syntax error at line 368, column 19, file /usr/include/libio.h:
Error at line 368, column 19 in file /usr/include/libio.h
extern IOsize_t IOsgetn __P ((_IO_FILE *, void *, IOsize_t));
..................1
PCC-S-02201, Encountered the symbol "_IO_sgetn" when expecting one of the follow
ing:
; , = ( [
The symbol ";" was substituted for "_IO_sgetn" to continue.
I have tried changing paths, but still the error persists. If I do following change in sample file. The program is getting compiled.
#ifndef ORA_PROC
#include <stdio.h>
#include <string.h>
#include <stdlib.h>
#include <sqlda.h>
#include <sqlcpr.h>
#endif
Can anyone suggest how can I get successful compilation without ORA_PROC usage.
Thanks & Best Regards,
Swati Deval.

Solution: Installing Oracle 8.1.7 on RedHat 7.1

I was having problems installing from the JRE included in the download so I
began to hunt around and to make a long story short, I've been able to launch
the installer using JDK 1.2.2. Below you will find the command line that I used.
First, the preconditions:
1) the JDK is installed at /usr/local/jdk122
2) the 8.1.7 tar is expanded to /oracle/tmp
The command line:
/usr/local/jdk122/bin/java -Doracle.installer.library_loc=/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/bin/linux -Doracle.installer.startup_location=/oracle/tmp/install/linux/.. -Doracle.installer.nlsEnabled="TRUE" -Doracle.installer.unixVersion=2.4.17 -mx100m -cp /tmp/OraInstall:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/OraInstaller.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/InstImages.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/InstHelp.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/oracleice.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/help.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/ewt.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/xmlparser.jar:/oracle/tmp/stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.8.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/lib/swingaccess.jar oracle.sysman.oii.oiic.OiicInstaller -scratchPath /tmp/OraInstall -sourceLoc /oracle/tmp/stage/products.jar -sourceType network
