Oracle 9.0.1 Linux Intel images on OTN corrupt

The oracle 9.0.1 Linux Intel images I downloaded
from Oracle technology network are corrupt. Disk1 and
Disk2 images are bad for Linux Intel. A gunzip -df
to decompress the image fails i.e
gunzip -df Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz
gunzip: Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz: unexpected end of file
gunzip -df Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz
gunzip: Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz: unexpected end of file
The other alternative i.e a cpio extract on Disk2 is also suspect.
cpio -imdv < Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz
cpio: warning: skipped 40 bytes of junk
cpio: premature end of file
Disk3 for Oracle 901 Linux Intel on OTN is good.
Disk1 and Disk2 images for Oracle 9.0.1 on Linux Intel
may have to be updated on the Oracle technology network.
Any other suggestions or tips are welcome.
Thanks

Oracle 9.0.1 Linux Intel Images on Downloads corrupt

The Oracle 9.0.1 Enterprise DataBase software for Linux Intel downloadable version on the Oracle Technology Network has 2 of the Disk images currently corrupt.
After downloading all the 3 Oracle 9.0.1 Database CD images in binary for Linux Intel from the Oracle Technology network, Disk1 and Disk2 images were found to be bad.
Disk 1 and Disk2 images could not be decompressed using gunzip or cpio. The following errors occur on linux
Disk1:
gunzip -df Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz
gunzip: Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz: unexpected end of file
Disk2:
gunzip -df Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz
gunzip: Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz: unexpected end of file
Cpio extraction is also suspect:
cpio -imdv < Linux9i_Disk2.cpio.gz
cpio: warning: skipped 40 bytes of junk
cpio: premature end of file
I have put in a request for support on Metalink and posted
a note on this on the Database-general and Installation,
Technology Linux and the OTN Member feedback Forums. But have got no feedback on this so far. Oracle Support have
recommended putting a note on the OTN forums as they have
no means of validating the Oracle 901 Linux images on OTN.
If the Oracle 901 Linux images could be checked and feedback provided, that would help.

Yes. The filesizes of the Oracle 901 Intel images
on OTN match with what I downloaded in binary mode.
I found a reference in one of the DBMS forums on OTN
which suggested using the download tool from Getright.
Using the getright tool and the direct url link path
reference I downloaded the oracle 901 Linux images again
from OTN. This time I was able to run gunzip and
cpio -imdv successfully on all the 3 oracle 901 Linux
images without any isssues.

Oracle Install on Mandrake Linux 9.1 (Dell Laptop 600)

I have a full install of Oracle 10G running on a Dell Laptop using Mandrake Linux 9.1:
First I did an install of the OS, I built the swap file to be 2GIGs, the /oracle partition as 5GIGS and the /home partition as 25GIGS.
I made sure to choose the Development packages and the Office packages, I did not choose any of the WEB and other stuff.
As root, edit the file /etc/sysctl.conf. Add the following lines to the end of the file:
kernel.shmall = 2097152
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128
fs.file-max = 65536
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
As root, issue the following commands at a terminal:
groupadd oinstall
groupadd dba
useradd g oinstall G dba oracle
passwd oracle <supply new password>
You then need to set up the new users environment variables. Edit the file /home/oracle/.bashrc and add the following between the # User specific aliases and functions and the # Source global definitions lines. In Mandrake Linux all I did was edit the /etc/profile file and add the below at the end. This way all users get the added. Works like a charm.
ORACLE_SID=lx10g
ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/10g
PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH:.
export ORACLE_SID ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME PATH
You can choose what you like for the ORACLE_SID: it represents what you will eventually call your database.
Make install directories, In my case, for example, I did this:
mkdir /oracle
mkdir /oracle/10g
chown -R oracle:oinstall /oracle
First when you try to run the Universal Installer do the following:
./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs (this gets you by the error on the OS)
Then just follow the normal screens and at the end you should have a complete system. There is a bug in the installer and you will need to re-run the ./runInstaller and selct just the ISQLPlus* and it will then only re-install this package. It seems it misses it during the initial install. I also suggest downloading the Compaign CD and installing the APACHE and HTMDB using the same as above when running the ./runInstaller as everything else is already setup.

check pre-requisites for a Linux OS here:
Installation Guide for UNIX Systems: AIX-Based Systems, Compaq Tru64 UNIX, HP 9000 Series HP-UX, Linux Intel and Sun Solaris Contents / Search / Index / PDF
http://otn.oracle.com/pls/db92/db92.docindex?remark=homepage
Remember that the OS has to be certified to install
Oracle sucessfully.

This problem appears while installing oracle 10g on enterprise linux

Hi All,
While installing oracle 10g on enterprise linux 5 this message apear:
http://img134.imageshack.us/my.php?image=problemqy2.png
More Info:
Oracle 10g supports redhat 4 and Enterprise Linux is redhat 5 so I changed the redhat-release to 4 to countinue setup but the above error appears, also I tried this configuration on SuSE 10 I changed the SuSE-release to 9 and went good.

The packeges are already installedIf you execute runInstaller again is the error message the same as before?
If yes can you post output for this command?
rpm -qa --qf '%{name}-%{version}-%{release}.%{arch}\n'|grep -i 'libxp'

Installation of oracle 10g on RedHat Linux EE 3

Hi,
I am going to Install of oracle 10g on RedHat Linux EE 3, rigth now i am running oracle 9i on windows platform. I need following things:
-I want to export all my data from oracle 9i on windows. For this what is the best way should i transport my tablespace and install oracle 10g on linux and import them after creating db or should i simply export and import it from there.
-Is there any issues that i should look at before i transfer my database.
-We are a Industrial Laboratory and use scientific notation in our database. Would this import export can takecare of all the things or should i set some character set setting before import/export.
-Any thing else if you thing that i should take care.
Thanks & Regard
Rashid K.K

You cannot use transportable tablespace. Platform independent transportable tablespace run only on newer versions (10g). You have to create the tablespaces on you linux machine and than exp/imp (full=y).

Installation of Oracle 9i on Redhat Linux 7.3

Hi.
I'm trying to install oracle 9i on Redhat Linux an facing some problems. To start with I had no problem in installing and creating the database, The listener.ora and tsnname.ora files created are similar to what i have on windows 2000( Since i was not able to make oracle working on linux, i tried installing on windows, so as to check and create database for temporary work.), But when i go to the console and type the commands: sqlplus /nolog it says bash: sqlplus:command not found.
2. When i try clicking sqlplus executable file in the bin directory, i get a message that 'Could'nt find the program'.
3. Where can i find the bash_profile file.
4.I'm able to run the database configuration assistant and create new databases without any error.
I would appreciate if some one can help me out.Also are there any special commands, for this is my first experience on linux.
Thanks
Pranav

If your shell is bash (which I guess it is) you need to set the environment variables either per user in a file called ~/.bash_profile (probably /home/oracle/.bash_profile) or globally by making a file /etc/profile.d/oracle.sh
you can list .files with ls -la
for now you can either type /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/sqlplus or type
export PATH=${PATH}:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin
to add oracle to the path in your current session

How to start Oracle Report Builder in Linux

Hi all
Can someone please help by telling how can i start Oracle Report Builder in Linux????
Thank you and best regards to all

Hello,
there should be a script rwbuilder.sh
in ORACLE_HOME/bin for 10.1.2.
in ORACLE_INSTANCE/config/reports/bin for 11g
Of course, you need to have a "X Display Server " up and running and the variable DISPLAY must be set to this "X Display Server "
Example :
export DISPLAY=123.456.789.12:0
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/rwbuilder.sh

Oracle 9.0.1 Linux Download Disk 1 Is NOT in gzip Format

Hi,
I tried to download twice Oracle 9.0.1 Linux on my Windows first, then tranfer to my Linux machine. All the other disks (gz files) are transfered and uncompressed into cpio files, expect Disk 1, Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz.
I checked Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz first using WinZip on Windows, then gunzip on Linux. The problem is the same: Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz is not in gzip format.
Since all the other Disks (.cpio.gz files) works fine, my suspicion is that Linux9i_Disk1.cpio.gz is corrupted on the server. Has anyone in Oracle really tested the download recently?
Of cause next monday I will check direct download to my Linux machine at work.
Thanks in advance!
Dong Liu
So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
- Server name
- Filename
- Date/Time
- Browser + Version
- O/S + Version
- Error Msg

Hi,
I reported that Oracle 9.0.1 Linux Download Disk 1 does not work if I first download it to Windows. My colleague downloaded it to a Linux machine, and it can be unzipped.
So only one disk file can only be directly downloaded to Linux.

Unable to Install Oracle 9i on redhat linux 9

Hi everybody,
I had been trying to install Oracle 9i on redhat linux 9 since last month and I am not able to succeed in installing the same. In fact I do not get to see even the OUI screen . I give below the steps I followed.
1) Setting of env varibles pertinent to oracle., say ORACLE_HOME,NLS_LANG etc.
2) PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/jdk1.3.1/bin:.
3) export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.1
I have a set of 3 CD's for installation. As soon as I load the first CD. the runInstaller would run for sometime and stop, while I do the installation in the graphic mode.
When I try to install the same in the command line mode, I get to see something like the one below
Initializing java jre from /tmp/OraInstall0/... please wait.. and then it would come back to the command prompt.
I then invoke ps -ef | grep -i oracle to check if some process is running and I do get to see something. But ultimately nothing happens.
Please help me with this.

At Oracle Site we have a very good manual for 9i installation. Follow the manual step-by-step.
Your problem seems as a java or permissions issue.
good luck
Eduardo

Can you install Oracle 10g on REDHAT LINUX ENTERPRISE WS?

According to oracle documentation, it says you can install oracle10g on Redhat enterprise version 3 or 4, but it doesn't specify whether its Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS or WS. Can you install oracle 10g on Rehat Linux Enterprise WS?

Oracle Certificaction Matrices says only RedHat AS/ES is supported for database. AFAIK WS means workstation.
Also this link is very clear: http://kbase.redhat.com/faq/FAQ_61_1135.shtm
Besides the above sentences... If the WS installation is providing all required packages (listed in installtion prerequisites) I belive that Oracle DB could be installed on WS but as I (and the above link) said it is not officialy supported.

How to install Oracle client on UBUNTU LInux

Hi,
I want to install oracle client on ubuntu linux. Which version of oracle client works on it and is there any other tool which i can install instead of oracle client?

The problem is Oracle usually don't provide direct Oracle Client download except for Windows. You need to download the Server installation file and install the client piece. The download files are rather large.
and is there any other tool which i can install instead of oracle client?It depends on what you plan to do with Oracle client and why you need it.
On alternative is instance client, it has direct download for all supported platform.
