Oracle on Red Hat on VMware Evaluation Kit,

Has anyone been able to locate the correct url for Disc 2 of the Red Hat download? It currently points to a non-existent page at Red Hat.

I downloaded DVD1, entered all requested information for DVD2, but I did not receive any emails about how to download DVD2.
If you have a direct link for downloading DVD2 could you send it to [email protected]

  • Error connecting to Oracle on Red Hat 7.2 with WL 7.0

    I able not able to connect to Oracle on Red Hat 7.2. I have tried both 9.0.1 and 9.2.0.
    I am able to use a very similar configuration and W2k and it works.
    Here is the situation:

    Hi David,
    The driver for 9.2.0 is not yet out. You may want to use the thin driver.
    You can also request this driver by filling a support case.

    These are same values I used for the tnsping which does work.
    Any other ideas?

  • VMWare Evaluation Kit on Red Hat Linux

    I have downloaded RHEL3-DVD2-Linux-v1[1].4.zip (793,301KB). When I try to open that file with WinZip I get the message "Cannot open file: bIt does not appear to be a valid archive. If you downloaded this file, try downloading the file again."
    I have tried this several times without success.
    The Oracle Universal Installer is at "Copying files for 'Oracle on Linux Evaluation - Oracle Software 10.1.0.2.0'" and is waiting with a Disk Location messagebox message 'Please insert OracleOnLinuxEvaluation disk 2 into your disk drive or specify an alternate location.'
    Why does everything related to Oracle has to be difficult - even a simple download? Can someone please help with installing evaluation kit on Windows (XP,2000,or 2003).

    Please post this question in the Oracle/VMware forum:

  • How to Install Oracle on Red Hat Linux?

    My System is having P4 1.8 GHz Processor with 128 MB RAM, 40 GB HDD(7 GB Linux Partition + 1 GB Swap Partition). I have installed Red Hat Linux 9(Server). Now, I want to install Oracle 9 on this syste. But I don't know how to install it. Anyone who knows this, plz, mail me the necessary system requirements alongwith some settings, if any. My Email ID is [email protected]/[email protected]

    I think you'll have some problems with 128MB RAM.....<br><br>
    :P Nonsense, but I do hope that hard drive is one of those new, fancy flash hard drives, otherwise the system will spend so much time swapping that it won't get past the installer.

  • Oracle 9i installation on Red Hat Linux 9 URGENT

    hi,
    I live in london, I have tried a lot to install Oracle 9i Enterprise edition on Red Hat Linux 9, but couldn't do it, can any one help me to install it, I am ready to pay and visit any place in london for that purpose in the evening, if any one can help my mobiel number 07832 077672
    best regards
    asif

    If you are only trying to learn, I would recommend either Fedora FC4 or OpenSuSE 10, and I would recommend installing ORacle Express Edition if you do not need advanced Oracle stuff (or you are not learning for OCP).
    Again, use Werner's excellent site - http://www.puschitz.com or Ivan Kartik's site - http://ivan.kartik.sk/oracle/install_ora9_fedora.html to get good instruciton on installation.
    If you want a free version that is as close to a supported Linux as legally possible, consider using WhiteBoxLinux.org, TaoLinux.org or CentOS.org linux. These are clones of RedHat Enterprise (the one that is supported). Or you could contact Novell.com and ask for an evaluation kit for SLES9.

  • Installation of Oracle AS 10g on Red Hat ES 3.0

    Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0 (All issues are cleared and u will b done with no error like Java Configuration Failed and make files errors)
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Custom Installation
    Copy from OTN Note
    Start
    Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support
    o     Accept the default.
    13.     Time Zone Selection
    o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
    14.     Set Root Password
    o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.
    15.     Package Group Selection
    o     Select only the package sets shown here. Leave all others unselected.
    o     Desktop
    - X Window System
    - Gnome
    - KDE
    - See my comments in the RHES 2.1 section regarding choice of GUI.
    o     Applications
    - Editors
    - Graphical Internet
    o     Servers
    - Do not select anything in this group.
    o     Development
    - Development Tools
    o     System
    - Administration Tools
    o     Red Hat Enterprise Linux
    - Do not select anything in this group.
    o     Miscellaneous
    - Legacy Software Development
    o     Click on Next to proceed.
    16.     About to Install
    o     Click on Next.
    17.     Installing Packages
    o     Software will be copied to the hard disk and installed. Change disks as prompted, and click on Next when the installation is complete.
    18.     Graphical Interface (X) Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults unless the installer does not recognize your video card. If your video card is not recognized, you will not be able to continue.
    19.     Monitor Configuration
    o     Accept the default if the installer correctly identifies your monitor. Otherwise, select a compatible monitor from the list.
    20.     Customize Graphical Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults.
    21.     Congratulations
    o     Remove the installation media from the system, and click on Next.
    22.     The system automatically reboots and presents a new welcome screen.
    o     Click on Next.
    23.     License Agreement
    o     Read the license agreement. If you agree to the terms, select Yes, I agree to the License Agreement and click on Next.
    24.     Date and Time
    o     Set the Date and Time.
    o     If you want to use an NTP server (recommended), select Enable Network Time Protocol and enter the name of the NTP server.
    25.     User Account
    o     Create an account for yourself.
    o     Do not create an account for oracle at this time. Creating the oracle account is covered later in this section.
    26.     Red Hat Network
    o     If you want to use or activate your Red Hat Network account now, accept the default, click on Next, and follow the product activation instructions that accompanied your Red Hat product.
    27.     Additional CDs
    o     Click on Next.
    28.     Finish Setup
    o     Click on Next.
    29.     A graphical login screen appears.
    30.     Congratulations! Your Linux software is now installed.

    Export ORACLE_BASE

    Start installation from CD 1 .
    . ./runInstaller
    Press Y               (There is no need to disturb, upgrade, degrade any package)
    Press Y
    Installation will start while installing and reaches at ~50% then go to /oracle/appsrv/infra/bin open relink file and change at line # 50 i.e. remove 2 brackets
    ] –o [  and at line # 102 make= /usr/ccs/bin/make to /usr/bin/make remove ccs and save the file
    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support
    o     Accept the default.
    13.     Time Zone Selection
    o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
    14.     Set Root Password
    o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.
    15.     Package Group Selection
    o     Select only the package sets shown here. Leave all others unselected.
    o     Desktop
    - X Window System
    - Gnome
    - KDE
    - See my comments in the RHES 2.1 section regarding choice of GUI.
    o     Applications

    o     Click on Next to proceed.
    16.     About to Install
    o     Click on Next.
    17.     Installing Packages
    o     Software will be copied to the hard disk and installed. Change disks as prompted, and click on Next when the installation is complete.
    18.     Graphical Interface (X) Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults unless the installer does not recognize your video card. If your video card is not recognized, you will not be able to continue.
    19.     Monitor Configuration
    o     Accept the default if the installer correctly identifies your monitor. Otherwise, select a compatible monitor from the list.
    20.     Customize Graphical Configuration
    o     Accept the defaults.
    21.     Congratulations
    o     Remove the installation media from the system, and click on Next.
    22.     The system automatically reboots and presents a new welcome screen.
    o     Click on Next.
    23.     License Agreement
    o     Read the license agreement. If you agree to the terms, select Yes, I agree to the License Agreement and click on Next.
    24.     Date and Time
    o     Set the Date and Time.
    o     If you want to use an NTP server (recommended), select Enable Network Time Protocol and enter the name of the NTP server.
    25.     User Account
    o     Create an account for yourself.
    o     Do not create an account for oracle at this time. Creating the oracle account is covered later in this section.
    26.     Red Hat Network
    o     If you want to use or activate your Red Hat Network account now, accept the default, click on Next, and follow the product activation instructions that accompanied your Red Hat product.
    27.     Additional CDs
    o     Click on Next.
    28.     Finish Setup
    o     Click on Next.

    Export TMPDIR
    ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
    Export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/appsrv/infra
    Export ORACLE_HOME

    Now u can check that DISPLAY is ok by run the command xclock if clock appears then ok else set DISPLAY with root user ok
    Start installation from CD 1 .
    . ./runInstaller
    Press Y               (There is no need to disturb, upgrade, degrade any package)
    Press Y
    Installation will start while installing and reaches at ~50% then go to /oracle/appsrv/infra/bin open relink file and change at line # 50 i.e. remove 2 brackets
    ] –o [  and at line # 102 make= /usr/ccs/bin/make to /usr/bin/make remove ccs and save the file
    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

    Hi,
    I tried uname -a and it returns the following:
    Linux NLABLINUX 2.4.21-20.EL.c0 #1 Thu Sep 9 02:07:03 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    We have the following problems:
    1. I am having a box running RHEL 3.0 (got from centos.org). I have Oracle 10g running ok. Now I tried to install ASMLIB downloaded from technet. The files are:
    rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.4.21-EL-1.0.3-1.i686.rpm \
         oracleasmlib-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
         oracleasm-support-1.0.3-1.i386.rpm \
    When I tried to install these files, I got the following error:
    Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
    Also when I try to run /etc/init.d/oracleasm , I get the same error
    Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
    2. We created 4 raw partitions /dev/raw/raw1 - 4 using raw command.
    [root@rcdell root]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw[1,2,3,4]
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 1 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw1

    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 4 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw4
    then tried this:
    SYS at +ASM on 29-DEC-04 >create diskgroup dg1 normal redundancy
    2 failgroup c1 disk '/dev/raw/raw1'
    3 failgroup c2 disk '/dev/raw/raw2';

  • Installation Problem Oracle 9.2.0.4 on Red Hat Linux 5

    I have installed Red Hat Enterprise Linux 5. I want to install Oracle 9i (9.2.0.4) Server.
    I have created oracle user and set oracle home directory in the .bash_profile.After that i run runinstaller file but the message comes as below..
    'The user is root. Oracle Universal Installer cannot continue installation if the user is root. No such file or directory.
    Please tell me the actual solution.
    - Prasanta

    First of all, as pointed out by Hans, make sure you perform the installation with the oracle user, not root.
    Next, you should be aware that installing Ora9iR2 on RHEL5 is neither supported nor planned, so you must be aware you will be on your own. There is no official procedure to install 9i on RHEL5, however, considering you will use this for personal purposes, not production, you can attempt the procedure provided by Ivan Kartik --> Oracle 9i on RHEL 5.

    Hi,
    My name is Fridirick REMBEAUX and I have the same problem. ;))
    I did not understand the first point after :
    1. /usr/i386-glibc21-linux/bin/i386-glibc21-linux-env.sh
    At which url can I get this script ?
    I think that maybe it's not the same problem because the installer and so the jre
    still executed but nothing else appears.
    And I'm also lost. When did the oracle products work well ??
    I think I damned.
