Oracle 9i Release 2 on RedHat 8.0

I have installed Oracle 9i Release 2 on RedHat 8.0 and works perfectly.
You need to follow all the kernel settings as they are stated in the install pdf and
also take a look at www.puschitz.com . The install will stop with an error while comipling but if you follow the instructions at www.puschitz.com everything will work OK. Select create database later, just get the sofware compiled and installed.

I recently read that Mandrake ran some benchmark far faster than Suse ..
Red Hat's announcement of new release coming next spring/summer include
acknowledgement of some architectural problems that'll be fixed ..
Perhaps Mandrake got it right the first time.
Installed OK on RH 7.3 and Mandrake 9.0 (only modified the shmmax parameter).
Some problems in RH 8.0 (runInstaller exited unexpectedly halfway thru the initial configuration phase, then the make failed and I had to use the trick suggested in the excellent online article mentioned by other posts).
Interestingly, at the "46% Database creation phase", I had to wait a very, very long time while installing in RH 8.0, but in Mandrake 9.0 the datadabse creation progressed nicely, without long waits.
Since the installation was on my home machine (AMD XP 1800, 512 Mb DDRAM), I had the luxury of changing the OS (from RH 8.0 to Mandrake 9.0). I know that most people regard Mandrake as a newbie, only-for-home-use Linux, but I found it stable and reliable. Along with Oracle 9i (9.2.0), I also run JDeveloper 9.03, IBM DB2 7.1 and IBM MQ Series. And everything works fine. I might be a bit out of line here, but I believe that RH 8.0 does have some issues (I found some on my own, hence the decision to switch to another flavour, plus check out some Linux forums for a long and growing list of problems). Perhaps sticking with 7.3 for the time being wouldn't be such a bad idea...

Oracle 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Linux x86-64

Hi All,
During installation - Oracle Database Configuration Assistance, I have got below error and thus I stuck. As per Metalink note 293988.1, this will be resolved if I do [root@localhos]# echo 1 > /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock . But problem is when I do this because I dont have /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock file in my system, it giving ¨bash: /proc/sys/vm/disable_cap_mlock: No such file or directory¨ error. So I am unable to get rid of this error. I also set SELinux Default and Current mode as permissible and rebooted it.
No use, Its giving same error.
ORA-27125: Unable to create shared memory segment.

Trust me I verified installtion guide and release notes atleast 20 times. I never had luck witht any thing. I was wondering how come edelivery.oracle.com packages (both Linux 64 bit Linux with upgrade to Unbreakable and Oracle 10g db version) is not workign for me. Finally below trick to the installed file could make my installation work(Ref link http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/OracleDB10gInstallationOnFedora2.php) . In this I am setting DISABLE_HUGETLBFS to value 1. My only doubt is, does this have any impact on performance? Can some one relay on such tweeking for prod installtions? Ofcourse I am yet to go for commercial. At present I dont have ULN or metalink authorised access.
cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin
mv oracle oracle.bin
cat >oracle <<"EOF"
#!/bin/bash
export DISABLE_HUGETLBFS=1
exec $ORACLE_HOME/bin/oracle.bin $@
EOF
chmod +x oracle

How to setup local loopback for "Oracle 11g Release 2" installtion

Hi all,
I was trying to install the Oracle 11g Release 2 on Red hat 6 using Local Loop back configuration, but not able to install..
The contents of are:-
/etc/resolv.conf
# Generated by NetworkManager
nameserver 59.179.243.70
nameserver 203.94.243.70
and of /etc/hosts are:
127.0.0.1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost4 localhost4.localdomain4
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6
and
System eth0 is having setting given below:-
IPV4 is set to " Automatic(DHCP)".
IPV6 is set to "ignore".
If i select system etho0 then host-name gets changed it becomes "dhcppc0".
i checked it using command host-name. and if i try to install with this configuration then during installation gives error of networking as host-name has been changed to "dhcppc0".
Please tell me what to do for local loopback configuration
Am i doing some thing wrong?
Thanks

i am using "oracle Release 11.2.0.1.0" but same problem was there with oracle 10g on redhat 5.
Please tell me how to setup local loopback configuration so that i can use internet as well as oracle on same machine. otherwise for internet use i have to change my system ipV4 to automatic(DHCP). if i change it to automatic(DHCP) then oracle stop its working please tell me solution for both case.
I can not assign Static IP to IPv4, i earlier post i got recommendation to connfigure Local Loopback , but i am able to setup it.

Oracle Designer6i Release 4 and Oracle9i Unable to add user to Repository

Dear all,
I am currently using Oracle9i with Oracle Designer6i Release 4. Before I am able to use both Release 4 and Release 2 with Oracle9i. However, this time when I install it after a cleanup in my server. I have received the following error message when allowing a user to use repository using RAU:
Message
RME-00020: Internal API error - ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [25012], [2147483647], [0], [], [], [], [], []

RME-00222: Failed to dispatch operation to Repository
RME-00224: Failed to close activity
Please help. Thank you.

Hi
I had exactly the same error and managed to get rid of it by deinstalling and reinstalling the client and the server with the patch (2083057) from metalink (I had previously used this patch for upgrade). There was no problem with user creation.
However, I get the same error when I try to do anything with the repository, such as, create an object. So, this is really of no help. Sorry.
Have you managed to get the installation going????
Is there anyone who has Designer 6i functioning (even partially) with Oracle 9i on a windows platform, or for that matter any platform??

Installation problem with oracle 10g release 1 in RHEL ES 4 platform

Hi,
I am facing such a problem. I want to install Oracle 10g release 1.
I am using linux 86_64
os is RHEL ES 4 UPGRADE 5 X_86_64
When i put the command ./runInstaller It shows os is not supported.
Is there any way to install this oracle version.
Can u please suggest which version os is suitable for this.
please suggest.
Thanks & regards

WHICH 10gR1 software do you use? Oracle provides different versions, you need 10.1.0.3 for Linux x86-64 from the OTN download page.
By the way I would install 10gR2.

Installation of Oracle 11g Release 2 on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hi:
When I tried to install 64-bit Oracle 11g Release 2 on a system running 64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2.
One of the system pre-requisites failed with the following error message:
Checking operating system requirements ...
Expected result: One of 5.0,5.1,5.2,6.0
Actual Result: 6.1
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: Oracle Database 11g is not certified on the current operating system.
Recommendation: Make sure you are installing the software on the correct platform.
I presume 6.0 is Windows 2008 Server and 6.1 should be Release 2.
Does this mean that this version is not compatible with Server 2008 Release 2?

No one inside Oracle is permitted to say, or pre-announce release dates for legal reasons.
Which is why I gave you the link - so you could monitor for yourself.OK, thanks...
I was just hoping there was an official release date and I just couldn't find it.
Is there any information about features in 11gR2 for Windows available yet?
Or can you maybe tell me if it will be possible to mount the new "database filesystem" like we can do on linux?
I remember oracle did something similar with Oracle ifs (Internet File System) back in Oracle 9i. (or was it 8i?)

Problem installing Oracle 8.05 on Redhat Linux 7.1

I am currently trying to install Oracle 8.05 onto Redhat Linux 7.1. I can get part of the way through
the installation, however, when it is installing the rdbms portion. I stops with an error about a failure
during relinking. Here is the part of make.log which details what really happened. Could someone tell
me how to proceed.
Thank you,

Problem installing Oracle 9.2 on RedHat Linux 7.1 and 9.0

Hi everyone,
As the subject line says, I tried installing Oracle 9.2 on
RedHat Linux 7.1 and 9.0, strictly following instructions
written by Werner Puschitz
(http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml). Both
attempts failed with identical symptoms:
- the installer asks for Disk 2
- after the disk is inserted, it hangs. It turns out that
kernel is writing messages similar to these in
/var/log/messages:
Jun 16 02:45:19 boston kernel: 16:00: rw=0, want=317696, limit=149920
Jun 16 02:45:19 boston kernel: attempt to access beyond end of device
Unless interrupted, this continues until the /tmp filesystem gets full.
Has anyone experienced this? I haven't been able to find
an explanation so far.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Ljubomir Buturovic

Providing a thread-bare configuration of your machine on which you are trying to install Oracle on Linux (and mind you - which kernel/distro, coz that's important) would definitely help you elicit more responses to your messages.

2. Configured Eclipse.
The installed procedure:
1. Downloaded "10201_database_win32.zip" from Oracle website.
2. Unzip it and run setup.exe
3. It gives an error like below :
"javaw.exe - Entry Point Not Found"
"The procedure entry point longjmp could not be located in the dynnamik link library orauts.dll."
Installation completed(forcefully) without the below.
1. Oracle Net Configuration Assistant (Failed)
2. Oracle Database Configuration Assistant (Failed).
and in services: "No Oracle process exist".
I tried the below:
A. Change the environment variables (remove ORACLE_HOME/ORACLE_SID etc)
B. 2 to 5 times un-install oracle(including registry, directory etc) and install.
C. Uninstall Java SDK & Runtime Env. Then install Oracle.
D. Installing Personal edition, Enterprise edition etc etc.

What ever I do the above appers all the time and installation is incomplete.
Due to this problem I couldn't move further, please do help me in solving this.
Thanks a lot in advance.

Hey Guys,
I am Srinivas Here who had been trying to install Oracle Database 10G on Windows X86 on Windows XP Professional.
If you have Win-XP Professional as your Operating System. Do not download the oracle Database using windows - XP Professional because XP will block certain installation files while downloading. In your machine install Windows 2000 or any other Windows version as a dual boot. First the download Database Zip files using your other version of Windows Operating system and then when you Unzip the files it will create a folder called Database and all the files will be present in it.If you want to store the same to cd for having to install the 10G Rel 2 database through CD then copy the contents of the unzipped database folder and store only the contents of the database folder and write them to CD's. Please see to it that while writing on cd's do not copy the folder itself .
After this, restart the system and get into windows XP Professional (Your XP Professional should be with Service Pack 2 in order to install 10G Database on windows XP - The Basic requirements for Oracle Database 10G on Windows X86).
I request you to check the software and hardware requirements from oracle Documents before you install the Oracle Database 10G on Windows x86 as well as Oracle Database 10G on Linux X86 or any other operating systems.
Finally, After you run the Oracle Universal installer in the last you will get messages for all products installed Success and finally it will ask the password for DBA and open the password management and give the password and reenter password and on the left you will have to unlock the items you would like to use.
In the last it will give you various URL links for Isqlplus, DBA, Enterprise Manager and a log report stored into oracle directory stored in your C:\Program files\Oracle folders. The correct link will be given at the end and you will have to watch the installation carefully.You can find DBCA and other options working. Try login in to Oracle through Command prompt, Sqlplus prompt availabe in Start ->Programs->Orahome10G->application Development-sqlplus as well as login through isqlplus link- Before this you should login at the command prompt as SYSDBA. YOU CAN SEE THAT YOUR DATABASE IS NOW WORKING IN WINDOWS XP PROFESSIONAL.
THANKS IN ADVANCE TO ALL FORUM MEMBERS WHO GAVE ME IDEA AND SUPPORT
REGARDS,
SRINIVAS

Dear all,
I planned to use an Oracle 10G Release 2 database for a new OWB project. Research on the web just told me that this new version of the database does not support OWB, because of a check for DBA privileges.
The website advises to either use an earlier version of the database (10g R1) or wait for the release of the 10.1.0.4 patch for OWB.
Is this patch available at this moment? If so, can anyone tell me where I can download it? If not, does anyone know when this patch will be released?
Thanks in advance
Paul Versluis

Hi,
I have installed 10.1.0.4 OWB on Suse 9.3 and Suse 10 x86.
I sent correction notes to Oracle Documentation team as there were a few errors for the Linux Install.
More importantly i found in 10.1.0.4 one of the key install shell scripts will never work as the coders forgot to export a JAVAPATH variable meaning the script could never find the JRE
Good to see ORACLE test the installation of their releases
When i get back from Bew Year holiday i will send you my notes if you like
regards

Thanks Srini,
After checking the link, I was able to install it but there were some error messages.
I have another problem log in the SQL PLUS. When I open the SQL PLUS window, it asked for Username and after I typed "sys" or "system" and hit Enter; it was prompted for password, however, it did not let me type in any word; and after I hit Enter again, the error message " ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error" appeared
Any hints would be apprecieted, thanks.
SamIt wasn't preventing you from typing a password, it just wasn't echoing your keystrokes back to the screen. This is a security security feature common to most software, not just oracle. Either when asking for a password, either echo back a 'masking' character like '*' or don't echo anything. It's so common, I'm surprised you seem to have never seen it before.
So after entering your password ... the 12560 probably comes from
1- the fact you didn't have the environment variable ORACLE_SID set, so sqlplus didn' know the name of the instance/process you wanted to connect to, or
2 - the windows service for the database was not started.
Those two possibilities account for 99.99999 pct of ora-12560 on Windows installations.
