Oracle 9i install failing on Solaris 10

Oracle 9i install on Solaris 10 fails at the Database creation stage with Ora error "Out of Memory"
I have a Ultra 10 with 1GB RAM, 2GB swap and lot of space in the filesystem where I am installing Oracle
The oracle release notes asks for increased value for shmmax, shmmni etc by editing /etc/system and according to Solaris 10, it is not required as kernel dynamically allocates those values. It looks like it is NOT. How can I verify?
rcladm talks about shmmax values only with projects. How can I verify that all my applications running on a this box has a higher SHMMAX values and not on per project basis.
In older versions, sysdef could tell us the current SHMMAX values. Is there any comparable commands in Solaris 10.
I am not that comfortable with the rcladm features. Can some one show some examples.
Is anyone successful in installing Oracle9i on Solaris 10. I heard Oracle patch set 9.2.0.5 and 9.2.0.6 is certified with Solaris 10. Does it mean the original version of 9.2 does not install on Solaris 10?

'Net Configuration Assistant is failing" from installation. I tried twice and got the same problem. I tried to run 'netca' from the command line and got the same problem - Java runtime problem. I tried to install patch and could not find Oracle patches for Solaris 10 and the patches are for Solaris 9.
Does anyone have suggestion?

Oracle 10gR2 installation fails in Solaris 10

Hi All,
I am facing the following problem in Solaris 10 SPARC 64 bit machine.
1.     Downloaded Oracle 10g R2 installable from oracle
2.     Created user oracle and group dba and modified project settings and permissions as per quick installation guide
3.     Installation of software is successful. But dbca fails with following error message.
ORA-19624: operation failed, retry possible
ORA-19870: error reading backup piece /vol1/ora10gr2/product/10.2.0/Db_1/assistants/dbca/templates/Seed_Database.dfb
ORA-19587: error occurred at reading 0 bytes at block number 1
ORA-27091: unable to queue I/O
ORA-27067: size of I/O buffer is invalid
4.     I also tried creating scripts using dbca and running it manually. It fails with following error message in trace file
Corrupt block 1 found during reading backup piece, file=/ora10gr2/ora10gr2/product/10.2.0/Db_1/assistants/dbca/templates/Seed_

5.     Creation of custom database also fails with similar error message
It is Solaris 10 (Solaris 10 11/06 s10s_u3wos_10 SPARC) machine with patch level 125100-05 .
I know this question has to be posted in Oracle forums. But I could not see others facing this issue in oracle forums. If anybody has faced this issue please let me know.
Thanks!

Yes, I was trying to install Oracle for Solaris sparc 64 bit.

Oracle 11i Install fails on InstantiateFile ... instconf.drv

I am trying to install Oracle 11i E-Business Suite on a Windows 2K server and keep running into a problem with the install hanging after all the DB files have been unzipped. The step in the adrun9i.cmd script that seems to be hanging is "InstantiateFile -d <path>\instconf.drv
I believe I have all the Oracle specific quirks covered - i.e., MKS Toolkit installed, gnumake in right place, VC++ anchor without spaces, linker (link.exe) copied to system32 folder, etc.
I would appreciate any insight that anyone can provide.
PS: I don't believe resource is the problem - W2K system with 1GB RAM and ~110GB storage for Oracle 11i alone.

You need MS Visual Studio/C++ 6.0 + SP3 or later. .NET version is not supported. See Metalink note 201392.
If you copy the installed Visual Studio installation then the environment variables will still point to the original directory. There is a VCVARS32.BAT file in VC98/Bin which sets the Visual C++ environment for command line usage. It is generated during the Visual Studio installation, so it also contains the original installation directory references.
I think the best practice is to completely remove the failed Oracle installation, reinstall Visual Studio 6.0 to C:\MSVC directory. It is tricky since Visual Studio 6.0 install asks for
"Choose a directory for common files:".
Enter: C:\MSVC\COMMON
Then you enter in rapidwiz the "MSDEV" directory as: C:\MSVC\VC98.
Do not forget to check in the "Register environment variables" during VS6.0 install and also apply Visual Studio 6.0 SP3 or later.
I think there is a link.exe in the MKS toolkit as well. windows/system32 folder is before the MKS bin folder int the PATH environment so that is how it is "solved". I simply deleted link.exe from MKS bin directory. (I use Cygwin instead of MKS software).

Oracle 7 install fails with Windows XP SP3

After installing Windows SP3 on systems with XP Professional 32 bit, we cannot install Oracle 7.3.4, which is required for an older 16 bit program. Running the Oracle 7 setup.exe returns an error "setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application". The installer file is not corrupt, we can still run the setup successfully on any computers that still have XP Pro SP2 installed.
However, systems that had Oracle 7.3.4 installed prior to the Windows SP3 update will run the software OK; it is just new installations of Oracle 7.3.4 that fail.
I have tried running the install off of a CD, network drive, and copied the files to the local machine, all return the same error. I have tried different users all with Admin privileges. I tried installing with each compatibility mode checked, clean booting the machine, and updating Windows Installer. I always get the "setup.exe is not a valid Win32 application" error.
Any suggestions or info?
Thanks

Here is some updated information.
Systems that have been in service for a long time and updated from Windows XP Pro SP2 to SP3 will not run the Oracle 7 installer. All machines that still have SP2 will run the installer.
However, systems that we recently formatted and reinstalled Windows XP Pro with SP2, and then updated to SP3, will run the installer for Oracle 7 with SP3 already installed. This indicates that it is not SP3 that is the issue. It could be an update that was done in the past (Microsoft or another software vendor), or some different file that is on the other machines (same brand, models, and OS, just been in service without being formatted recently).
We also have Oracle 10g on all the systems, but the old CrisPlus program probably won't run with Oracle 10g, because we have to add "C:\ORAWIN\BIN" to the system Environmental Variables or we get a "Ora7win.dll" error when launching the CrisPlus program. An Oracle expert or programmer may know how to work around this issue, but I do not know how.
This does give us options to fix the Oracle 7 issue. Either rollback the SP3 update and then install CrisPlus prior to the installation of SP3, or format the systems and reinstall Windows XP Pro, Service Pack3, and Oracle 7.
Thanks for the input. If anyone thinks of an easier workaround please let me know.

Install failed on solaris due to insufficient disk space

Now, How do I completely uninstall under this condition. I can't launch this tool to do 'Uninstall' from its menu. I also don't know the 'pkginfo' for this Solaris package.
thx
dave

I am having problems even before that:
I am attempting to install on a stock install Solaris 9 machine. I start up the installer and get the message that my /tmp partition is not big enough. So I use the setting -is:tempdir /alternate/tmp/dir
The installer brings up the first GUI panel then immediately closes with no error messages.
I'm not sure what to do next. Any suggestions?

Oracle 8.1.7 on solaris 7 install

Hi all
This is about a half solved problem that I thought someone can shed some light on. I tried to set up oracle 8.1.7 on a solaris 7 unix box and the install failed, just at the point the db assistant was connecting to the oracle db to create the first database instance with the error ORA - 03114: not connect to ORACLE
I called in some help, and together we managed to get the database working, but I'm still not fully understanding why.
There were two thing we discovered - using the debugger, adb -kw, that the shared memory :
shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
shminfo_shmmin=1
were not being set, even though they were in the etc/system file. These are recommended values in the oracle installation guide. We set this manually, and tried the install again. That failed the same way as before. So we tried an install of oracle 8.1.6, and that worked a treat, went on straight away. So investigating, we found that the shared memory pool on dbassist setup was smaller on the 8.1.6 setup than the default values for 8.1.7 and this caused the database assistant not to install the oracle instance. We adjusted the shared memory pool down, and it worked ok.
#extract from init file that worked
open_cursors = 100
max_enabled_roles = 30
db_block_buffers = 15300
shared_pool_size = 20889600
large_pool_size = 614400
java_pool_size = 0
#end extract
So it seems the shmem values don't have any affect on the oracle database, it was only the default values in the db assistant that was causing a problem.
So my question is does the shmem values really matter, and if they do, whats happened to them? Why doesn't setting them manually help?
Also why does the shared memory value in the db assistant have a effect on whether the database works or not?
Thanks
Regards
\Andrew

I ran into same problem with /etc/system data and it worked okay after I rebooted the OS.
Try a reboot and see if the implements the settings.

Can I install Oracle 8.1.7 on solaris 2.8

We have a working product which uses oci 7.x calls on solaris 2.7 OS and the oracle version is 8.1.7.
But when we installed oracle 8.1.7 on solaris 2.8 OS , We are unable to connect to Oracle data base using the same executables.
My question is : --- Is oracle 8.1.7 is supported on solaris 2.8 OS ?
thanks and regards

Yes! We made it only in 1 month, but now it works fine.

Install Oracle 8.1.7 in Solaris, disk space problems.

Hi!
I'm installing Oracle 8.1.7 in Solaris (typical instalation, Entrepise Edition).In addition, I have created two directories (/u01 and /u02).I would like to store Oracle Software in /u01 and I would like store my database in /u02.During instalation have been appeared a problem, I only have in / 650 Mbytes availables and Oracle requests 750 Mbytes. How Could I have more space in /?
With best wishes.
Jordi.

You may try to add the environment variable
ORACLE_TERM=vt100 which is not include in your envornment setting.

Backup fails for a Hyper-V guest with VSS Writer failures using DPM 2012 R2 - Hyper-V guest has Oracle application installed,

I am trying to backup a VM which before it had Oracle installed backed up with no problems. It is a Windows 2008 R2 server which sites on an 8 node Hyper-V 2012 R2 cluster (with CSVs). I am using DPM 2012 R2 to run the backups which have been
successful for the last few weeks but then Oracle was installed and the backups have failed since then.
The job fails and a large number of VSS writers go into a 'Failed' state with the 'Last Error' showing as 'Timed out'. I then get 4 popups appear each referring to a 'temporary' drive which appears briefly in Disk Management with a RAW file system.
These pops say "You need to format the disk in drive X: before you can use it. Do you want to format it?" (where
X: is replaced by the drive letter assigned to each 'temporary' drive).
The System event log is populated with a large number of warnings with Event 51, Disk, stating "An error was detected on device \Device\Harddisk<number>\DR<number> during a paging operation". There are also a
few warnings for Ntfs (eventid 57) stating that "The system failed to flush data to the transaction log. Corruption may occur."
Prior to these warnings there are 5 other warnings for partmgr (eventid 58) stating "The disk signature of disk
<number x> is equal to the disk signatuire of disk <number y>" and 4 errors (eventid 1, VDS Basic Provider), "Unexpected failure. Error code: 490@01010004".
There is a script which is run to stop the Oracle application on the server and if this is run then the backups will complete successfully. We have been troubleshooting this by running a certain amount of the script and seeing which part affects the
backup and it seems that if the Weblogic (wls_reports) service is stopped then the backup will succeed but if it is running then the backup will fail and the above symptoms occur.
Another point which may help is that there is a pre-production server which resides on a Windows 2008 R2 Hyper-V standalone server, has the same scripts and installation of Oracle but backs up without any issues.
I have experienced VSS writer failures before with VM backups but I have not seen this before. It is not intermittent and I can find no work around to alleviate the problem of having no backup (except stopping this service or shutting the server down,
but as it is a production server this is not practical).
If anyone has experienced this before or have any suggestions / advice it would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Chris

Hi Chris
I have exactly the same issue.
2008 R2 Server running Oracle
6 node 2012 R2 Hyper-V Cluster with CSV
Exact same errors and popup "format disk" message.
DPM2012 R2
I also have some other VM's on the same cluster which do back up through DPM
The only difference I can see is the server which has the issue has a legacy network adapter.
Production server so cannot make any changes until later but will add new adapter and report back.
Interesting about the Weblogic service, may test this also.

Problems to install Oracle SOA Suite 11g on Solaris 10 SPARC-64

I'm trying to install the Oracle SOA Suite 11g on Solaris 10 SPARC-64 but I´m having problems.
I have already installed the JDK 1.6_11 for 64 bits and I use it for the SOA installation, the instruction is:
./runInstaller -jreLoc /export/home/adminsoa/Java1.6_11/jdk1.6.0_11
I'm providing the absolute path to ensure take the correct JDK (JDK 64 bits).
But I get the following error:
bash-3.00$ ./runInstaller -jreLoc /export/home/adminsoa/Java1.6_11/jdk1.6.0_11

I think that the error would be caused by the JDK version with which try to initializing.
Anyone have any idea about the possible error? Thanks in advance.

Hi, I encourage you to try to use the generic installer at: %SOA_INSTALLER_DIR%/Disk1/runInstaller. Because if you are using the runInstaller at %SOA_INSTALLER_DIR%/Disk1/install/solaris it will lead to that problem in some cases.

Solaris 10 DVD install fails at 90%

Hi, this is my first time posting here. I've used a variety of linux distributions for a few years now: first Red Hat, then Suse, then Ubuntu, and currently Gentoo. So I have familiarity with installs and *nix systems. Now I'm trying to install Solaris 10 on a second hard drive with the install DVD that I burned from a download. After a few tries, and learning some Solaris command line, I went ahead and selected my custom packages, then made my custom partitioning layout on the second disk, then I began the package install.
It took a while, so I was not there the whole time, but before the error, package install was at 90%. I know I had enough room on the partition for all the packages. After checking the system again I found that it had stopped, and began complaining about not finding packages on the install disk.
I tried the install again, this time with a minimum of my intervention and custom packaging selection. Again the install fails after it is mostly installed. After learning how to mount an IBM formatted disk, I copied the install logs to it, and I'd like to attach them to this post, but I can't see how to do that, if anyone can tell me how to add log files, I'd appreciate it. I just don't want to paste their entire contents here because they're too large.
Thanks in advance for the help,
Sam

Hi. I had your same problem with Solaris Express Developer Edition 01/08.
The PC was complaining about the failed installation of some packages:
SUNWsndmr
SUNWsndmu
SUNWsolnm
I suspected they were audio drivers and/or libraries.
So I decided to do an absolutely minimum installation and I even excluded anything that was unnecessary and Audio-related. Actually Solaris Installer complained about unsatisfied USB debendencies, but went on anyway...
And it worked!
Solaris completed the installation.
I don't know if it's possible to add the left out drivers in a second moment yet. We'll see.
Maybe I'm wrong but, from your logfiles you seem to have a similar problem with:
SUNWgttf
SUNWgnome-config
SUNWgnome-vfs-root
And I suspect it may be due to a CD/DVD read error.
