Oracle 9i on RedHat 6.1

I have RedHat 6.1. Do I need to upgrade to 7.1, or can install Oracle 9i on 6.1?
Please say "yes".

Hi,
I am not a Linux expert. So I may be wrong.
It is not easy (may be possible) to install oracle 9i on 6.1.
Reasons
Redhat 6.1 and 6.2
ship with glibc 2.1
and oracle 8.1.6 and 8.1.7 compile with this version of glibc.
Enter Redhat 7.0 and glibc shipped with it is 2.2
So it is a pain to install Oracle 8.1.6 and 8.1.7 (or shall i say it was, coz it is easy after oracle provided the patch) on Redhat 7.0
Enter Oracle 9i which compiles with glibc 2.2
so it is not possilbe to install it (easily) on Redhat 6.1 and 6.2 as they are shipped with glibc 2.1 . Now now now there will be ways if i could install a database that compiled with 2.1 with the Linux distribution that had 2.2 then the other way round should be possible.
If you are a linux expert this should be a matter of few minutes to you
Hope i have not lost you :)

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

Error in Installing Oracle 9i on redhat 7.2 -- jre was not found again!

I'm installing Oracle 9i on redhat 7.2. The machine I'm installing it on is an AMD k-6 500 mhz pc. While attempting to install Oracle 9i
I think I'm successful (well, maybe not) except for the fact that the oui reports the following error:
"configuration tool oracle net configuration assistant failed. jre was not found
in /home/ora1/jre/1.1.8/bin/../bin/i586/green_threads/jre"
Now, I know about the i686/i586 scenario, and I have a 586 pc. I got the more common error message:
"jre was not found in /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/i586/green_threads" (also for ../lib/..)
and I set up symbolic links for that and re-ran the runInstaller. Everything I've tried so far has been unsuccessfull.
Can anyone help? Thanks.
BTW: What does it mean when the path has double dots (i.e. bin/../bin) in it?. That confuses me a bit.

I had a similar problem when running jre in linux.
Any help really appreciated.

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

Installing oracle 817 on redhat 7.1

Could someone please help me? I'm trying to install oracle 817
on redhat 7.1 i did all the prework and also installed java
sdk1.3.1, and set my path also.
when I try to run the ./runInstaller or even the
install/linux/runInstaller, i get this error, Java runtime
environment not found e/bin/jre.............
the e at e/bin/jre had a little mark on top of it, i have no
idea what that means. I diged through some documentation and
the only reference that i found saids something about long file
name. Has anyone else came across this and what would be the
fix to this?
Thank you.

Hello.
You dont need any java to install 8.1.7 in RedHat 7.1
Just make a full installation of RedHat and for running the
runInstaller export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 before
I dont know if this are in the RelaseNotes of Disk1 of RedHat 7.0
or 7.1

Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i On Redhat 7.1

I have installed oracle 9i on SuSe 7.1 and Mandrake 8.0 successfully!!But when I want to install Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i on Redhat 7.1,it goes wrong! All installtion was successful.The last step is Link Pending and errors come~~~~:"Error in invoking target toolsinstall of make file /soft/oracle/product/9.0.1.0.0/ldap/lib/ins_ldap.mk".
See the graphic:http://211.100.12.66/oracle.htm

Go to www.oracle.com.
click on downloads in the upper right.
Select 8i Enterprise edition in the select product box.
select 8.1.7 for linux.
You should see the glibc patch on this page.
you will need a userid and password to the oracle technology network, but these are free if you do not have one.

Error in Installing Oracle 9i on Redhat 7.2

I'm installing Oracle 9i on redhat 7.2. The machine I'm installing it on is an AMD k-6 500 mhz pc. While attempting to install Oracle 9i I'm successful (well, I think maybe not) except for the fact that the oui reports the following error:

But I need help on the first error message. Can anyone offer advise? When I start sqlplus, startup fails with the error: "ORA-03113: end-of-file on communiation channel" I think that this may be related. I'd appreciate any help/advice. Thanks.

From the SuSE Oracle support site.
Installation problem on non-i686 architectures: There is a problem running the Oracle installer on any system where the arch command returns anything else but "i686". This is not a problem with the processor itself, just with the name, because Oracle uses this name as directory names for the Java Runtime Environment used to run the Oracle tools.
To workaround this problem do this: Start the installer and wait for the error, which will be something like "jre not found".
Background info: What happens is that the Oracle script that starts the installer copies the JRE from ./stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.8.0.0/1/DataFiles/Expanded/linux/ to /tmp/OraInstall/jre, and then attempts to start the Java Oracle Universal Installer, using the JRE in /tmp/OraInstall/jre/(bin|lib)/`arch`/, which fails if the architecture is not "i686" - not for any valid reason but simply because to assume all Intel and compatible processors are called "i686" is not a good idea!
After getting the error the installer aborted, and you execute the commands below (no need to switch to root) and afterwards just restart the runInstaller, which this time will work:
# create symlinks so that the installer finds the JRE
cd /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/
ln -s i686 i586
cd ../lib/
ln -s i686 i586

I'm more than a bit confused why anyone would be installing, 10 years after its release, a now desupported version of the product. It seems from what you posted that you are installing on an operating system version that did not exist when 9i (whatever that means - 9.0.3 or 9.2.0.5 are version numbers) was released.
I would suggest installing 10.2.0.1 on Redhat 4, 11.1.0.6 on version 5, finding an ancient version of the O/S if you want 9.x or playing games with the install to see if you can trick it into thinking you have compatibility which is generally speaking a bad idea.

Oracle software is multi home aware - which means you can install 10 different Oracle products and versions, each in its own unique Oracle Home directory, and switch between and run all 10 different products - even at the same time (assuming sufficient resources on the platform).
You cannot "+consolidate+" different Oracle Homes - it is an unwise thing to do. The Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) has the means to determine when installing a new product, whether or not you have the option to install into an existing Oracle Home.
And with OUI you also have the means to uninstall products in which case you can remove the corresponding Oracle Home from your platform.
Note though that despite multiple homes, certain configuration files will be shared (e.g. +/etc/oratab+ on Unix systems). In such a case you may need to manually update such a configuration file after removing an Oracle Home from your system.
Oracle XE sports its own installer (setup.exe on Windows) - so it does not use OUI. But it is multi-home aware - and can co-exists with other Oracle products in their specific Oracle Homes.

That's an understatement! I tried installing 8.1.7 on RedHat 7.0 without success. I got to the point where the starter database was being created, and it failed with the error message "End of file on communication channel". The same thing happened when I tried it a second time. I then tried installing 8.1.6 on the same machine (after cleaning out the remants of 8.1.7) and it hung on the database creation section, but returned no error message.
I then re-installed RH 6.2 on the same machine, and was able to successfully install 8.1.6. I'd like to install 8.1.7 on Linux to experiment with it's new features before upgrading our Solaris installation, but I think I'll wait a while.
