Oracle 9i R2 on Linux AS 2.1

Hi,
We want to install Oracle 9i R2 on Red Hat Linux AS 2.1. Which hardware is optimal to support 64-bit processing.
Secondly can we connect to Oracle 9i from an dapplication server where the client is 8i and Merant(Data Direct Driver) is version 3.6?

As for the Hardware requirements best bet would be to go through the Oracle Requirements and then list down your requirements and then formulate a check list to match your needs.
Yes Oracle 8i clients can connect to the 9i server provided the TNS/ Listeners are configured properly.

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

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 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 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!

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.

Differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform

Hello,
J would like to know if there are some differences between Oracle 8i for a UNIX Platform and Oracle 8i for a Linux Platform.
I know that there are some differences on Oracle 8i Parallel Server and i know that some products are not include like precompiler (Mod*Ada, Pro*FORTRAN) on a Linux Platform.
Thank you.

We have installed Oracle 8i on Solaris 8 and it had a great performance, of course that the hardware and licence invested here was costed my the office where i work. Personaly i'd installed linux reh hat 8 and oracle 8i, imagine that, it could be implemented by any individual that has the time to do so.
By buyinng from a company that has a good background you could be sure that you will have support.
Bottom line, if you have the $ to buy great hardware go for a unix platform. But if you don't a Red Hat Linux Server Licence with a 1 year sopport and Oracle data base is about 3500Dls.

Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid on Linux x86-64?

Since Oracle did not release 64 bit version of Oracle 10g grid for Linux X86-64. Can I run 32 bit version of Oracle 10g grid on Linux x86-64? If so did anyone tried this? and also any known issues?

All I had to do was use the 32bit version of "/usr/bin/gcc" and "/usr/bin/g++" to run the installation
That is:
bin]# cp -p /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc_old
bin]# mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc323
mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/gcc323'? y
bin]# ln -s /usr/bin/gcc296 /usr/bin/gcc
bin]# cp -p /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++_old
bin]# mv /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++323
mv: overwrite `/usr/bin/g++323'? y
bin]# ln -s /usr/bin/g++296 /usr/bin/g++
AFTER INSTALLATION REMEMBER TO
move back the 64bit files to their former state.
bin]#rm /usr/bin/g++
bin]#rm /usr/bin/gcc
bin]#mv /usr/bin/gcc_old /usr/bin/gcc
bin]#mv /usr/bin/g++_old /usr/bin/g++

Oracle 8 client for Linux

I really need to find the Oracle 8 client for Linux. It isn't available anywhere on Oracle's site. Is there an alternate way to get it? I need a modern PHP to be able to connect with an Oracle 7 database. It is not currently an option to upgrade the Oracle database, as much as I would love to do so.

8.0.4 for linux does not exists nor you need it to connect to a 8 database.
Just install the 9i client (available at OTN) and recompile your cgi's.
