  • Oracle 10g AS portal installation  on linux

    hi,
    i am new bie to oracle10g as portal.i would like to install on linux.please help me out that. i need software and installation steps for that.whichone is best whether single node or multinode.
    thanks
    with regards

    yes, Shail is right. you asked for portal and that's the current latest portal.
    I would say, just get yourself familiarized with Rel 2 documentation, and the various tabs on the link i gave you which has documentation for various component it offers.
    perhaps, do not download or install the software yet; and within a week, a newer version (Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g) will be available with a newer version of Oracle Portal.
    however, my honest advice would be really if you could invest some dedicated time to study components of Rel 2 and Rel 3 and just get a feel of what is included in a functional system. and what are enterprise portals. because it will help you a lot in understanding the newer versions too.
    thanks,

  • Oracle Web Services Manager Installation in Linux

    Hi
    I download the Oracle WSM for linux (as_linux_x86_ws_manager_4030.cpio) and extracted tar followed the steps given in the site (cat filename.cpio | cpio –icd)
    I got coresv folder and install.sh on it.
    When I run the install.sh I noticed the error saying install.home.dir or coresv.home.dir wrong in the install.properties because it was referring c:/coresv_install_home which is supposed to be wrong for linux.
    So I created an directory under var like coresv_install_home. And edited the install.properties for /var/coresv_install_home.
    After this it was throwing Platform not supporting Oracle Lite.
    Please let me know my steps are correct on the linux installation. Also how I can fix the Oracle Lite installation problem. It will be great if some one helped me out this issue.
    Thanks

    I had the same problem, but adding the ant/lib directory to classpath helped.

  • Oracle 8.0.5 installation on linux RH6.0 kernel 2.2.5-15

    Good evening.
    I'm trying to install Oracle 8.0.5 on a machine running Linux RH 6.0 kernel 2.2.5-15.
    I wish to obtain some information about how and where can I set the following parameters:
    SHMMAX
    SHMMIN
    SHMMNI
    SHMSEG
    SEMMNS
    SEMMNI
    SEMMSL
    PROCESSES
    Thanks forward for your help.

    You'll have to be prepared to wade through and understand the Linux way of recompiling your kernel. The files can be located using the "find" command. There is some great "HOW-TO"s in the Linux RedHat site.
    Tip: Be very careful how you answer the "make config" questions because it can mess up the resulting VMLINUZ object. Also, be sure to place secondary entry in your "lilo.conf" to allow you a graceful way of getting back to the old kernel should the new one fail.
    Good Luck!

  • Oracle 8.1.5.0.0 on Solaris 8 for Intel

    I keep getting Oracle not found when I finish the installation process of Oracle...
    What could be wrong. I got the Oracle CD from the Solaris 8 binary package from Sun
    Please Help

    Hi,
    Check if the listener process has started or not.
    Sometimes you will have to manually start the listener process.
    Go to Oracle Home. Run lsnrctl from bin.
    Now you may be able to connect.

  • How to install Oracle 10g on to Red Hat Linux 5 Server

    I'm new to both Linux and Oracle. I've been working on an installion of Oracle 10g on a Red Hat Linux 5 Server for about 2 weeks. I've been doing a lot of reading about installing Oracle on a Linux environment. I finally got to the installation portion and the Oracle Installer displayed a message that I had to have Red Hat 4 or 4 Enterprise to continue.
    How can Install Oracle 10g onto a Red Hat 5 Linux Server"? Is there an option that I can use to bypass the OS checking?
    Thanks

    Unfortunately there is no way to access metalink without a valid account. You could then just try to skip preinstall requisites with this clause:
    ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    or this method:
    Copy the oraparam.ini from the installation source install/oraparam.ini to /tmp directory.
    Edit the file /tmp/oraparam.ini so this file reads:
    After
    [Certified Versions]
    Linux=redhat-3,SuSE-9,redhat-4,UnitedLinux-1.0,asianux-1,asianux-2,redhat-5
    also, make sure you have these packages installed:
    # rpm -ivh gcc-c++-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm gcc-4.1.1-52.el5.i386.rpm

  • Installation of Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4

    dear all
    I have tried to Oracle 8.1.17 on Redhat Linux Enterprise Edition 2.4 but it gives an error "Error in invoking target make file .."
    I tried using retries it failed each time to prorceed.
    I checked for my binutils ( binutils-2.14.90.0.4-26 ) but mine are higher than binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm required ..
    do i need to down grade my binutils for 8.1.7
    abhi

    Hi Abhi!
    If I remember correctly (817 is stone age) the binutils used a strange debug flag in the 2.11.90.0.8-13 (something with -z).
    If this is not present in your newer version of the binutils the make will fail.
    Try downgrading the binutils during the installation.

  • Oracle 8.1.7 installation on Mandrake 9.2 Linux

    Hello Oracle Linux experts,
    I've got problem with installation of Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.2 linux... I know that Mandrake not certified for running Oracle 8i - but may be someone could help ? I managed to install it successfully on 8.x and 9.0 versions
    of Mandrake - but 9.2 (currently installed one giving me problems). I could finish the installation - but unfortunately not all oracle modules (including oracle binary) built successfully. And I've got some errors on a linking stage (even if I run setup_stubs.sh - and according to log file generated by this script all modules have been rebuild) Any suggestions ? Am I missing something ? This are the steps that I was using for Mandrake 9.0 and now I am trying the same ones on 9.2:
    ---cut---
    This is what I've done:
    1. Create oracle installation account (in my case 'ora817' and use 'dba' as primary group) As shell for this account I used 'bash'
    2. Create all required directory structure for Oracle installation i.e.
    ORACLE_BASE=/apps/ora_817
    ORACLE_HOME=${ORACLE_BASE}/product/8.1.7
    3. In home directory of ora817 use create / update file .bash_profile:
    ---.bash_profile---
    # .bash_profile
    # Get the aliases and functions
    if [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then
    . ~/.bashrc
    fi
    # User specific environment and startup programs
    # PATH=$PATH:$HOME/bin
    # export PATH
    # unset USERNAME
    JAVA_HOME=/usr/local/java; export JAVA_HOME
    ORACLE_BASE=/apps/ora_817; export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=${ORACLE_BASE}/product/8.1.7; export ORACLE_HOME
    PATH=${PATH}:${ORACLE_HOME}/bin; export PATH
    if [${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} == ""]
    then
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/local/lib
    else
    LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${ORACLE_HOME}/lib:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}
    fi
    export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
    umask 002
    unset LANG
    unset LANGUAGE
    ---.bash_profile---
    4. Update / create .bashrc file in the same directory:
    ---.bashrc---
    # .bashrc
    # User specific aliases and functions
    # Source global definitions
    if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then
    . /etc/bashrc
    fi
    unset LANG
    unset LANGUAGE
    unset LC_MONETARY
    unset LC_NUMERIC
    unset LC_MESSAGES
    unset LC_COLLATE
    unset LC_CTYPE
    unset LC_TIME
    unset NLS_LANG
    ---.bashrc---
    Then you would have to logout and login back so that changes take place and that's it - your Oracle Universal Installer will start !!!
    Few other notes:
    Before installation you would have to make sure that you got Java JDK-1.1.8 - file should be called:
    jdk118_v3-glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2
    You could find it on the net.
    During installation there will be step when you would have to run file $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh - make sure that you edit this file before execution:
    Line 102:
    RMF=/bin/rm -f
    is changed into
    RMF="/bin/rm -f"
    and line 156
    RUID=`/usr/bin/id|$AWK -F\( '{print $2}'|$AWK -F\) '{print $1}`
    is changed into
    RUID=`/bin/id|$AWK -F\( '{print $2}'|$AWK -F\) '{print $1}'`
    Please note that id command in Mandrake 9.0 linux located in /bin directory and not in /usr/bin !
    Also path for 'sed' module should be changed from /usr/local/bin to just /bin
    After installation I suggest to unset LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
    env variable and install and run glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar.gz package that will relink modules for use with newer version of glibc. Copy this package to $ORACLE_HOME directory, untar it - i.e.
    tar -xvzf ./glibc-2.1.3-stubs.tar.gzand then run ./setup_stubs.sh script. (make sure that you do so by the same user that was used during oracle installation)
    This file you could get from oracle OTN web site.
    ---cut---
    Regards,
    Alex

    Just some additional information - I think that I found the problem - but no solution so far:
    When I am trying to rebuild (relink) oracle (using relink script from $ORACLE_HOME/bin - it worked for all other options apart from 'oracle' and as a result oracle binary in
    $ORACLE_HOME/bin is missing....) this is kind of error that I've got:

  • Oracle Client(8.0.5) installation on Linux(6.0)

    Please Help,
    These are the steps followed in the Oracle
    client installation of the Linux
    version
    1. Loaded SQLNET, TCP/IP Adapter and sqlplus from the Oracle CD for Linux.
    2. While running SQLPLUS it gave the 'Missing Library file'
    3. Added LD_LIBRARY_PATH parameter to .profile, problem solved.
    4. While running SQLPLUS a new message 'Segmentation Fault - Core dumped'
    started coming.
    After analysing it was observed that none of the Linux memory parametre
    required for oracle had been tuned. these parameters are :-
    shmmax,shmseg, shmmin, shmmni, semmns, semmni
    We know the value of these parameters but the problem is that in linux we
    are not able to find the Kernel paramater file,
    as we do not know the Kernel parameter file name and the location in which
    it is situated.
    I have done the configuration of Oracle in Sun Solaris successfully and
    also modified the Kernel parameter. the following in the sample data
    extracted from the /etc/system file present in Sun Solaris.
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=208388608
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=15
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=150
    set semsys:seminfo_semmns=250
    set semsys:seminfo_semmni=100
    What I request is that kindly tell me how and where to update the same in
    the Linux for installing Oracle Client(8.0.5) on Linux(6.0).Regards And Thanks

    You'll have to be prepared to wade through and understand the Linux way of recompiling your kernel. The files can be located using the "find" command. There is some great "HOW-TO"s in the Linux RedHat site.
    Tip: Be very careful how you answer the "make config" questions because it can mess up the resulting VMLINUZ object. Also, be sure to place secondary entry in your "lilo.conf" to allow you a graceful way of getting back to the old kernel should the new one fail.
    Good Luck!
