Problem installing Oracle Database Instance

Hi,
I'm installing SAP Web AS 6.40 ABAP on Linux (SLES 9) with Unicode Oracle. The Central Instance setup was successful, but the install of the Database Instance failed. It stopped at task "Database Load".
The Log Browser shows the following message:

Has anybody an idea? Thank you very much.

I have tried the R3load command separately but the result always is:
sapparam: sapargv(argc, argv) has not been called.
sapparam(1c): No Profile used.
sapparam: SAPSYSTEMNAME neither in Profile nor in Commandline
Thanks for you help!

    Robinson

    Hi Robinson,
    The error seems to be db connect error, so please try to check
    1. set the environment variable dbs_ora_schema=SAP<SID>
    dbs_ora_tnsname=SID
    EG :
    dbms_type=ORA
    dbs_ora_tnsname=HX1
    dbs_ora_schema=SAPHX1
    ORACLE_PSRV=HX1
    ORACLE_SID=HX1
    DB_SID=HX1
    ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/HX1/920_64
    ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
    ORA_NLS33=/oracle/client/92x_64/ocommon/nls/admin/data
    Where HX1 is the SID for instance.
    2. start the database and then try running the installation.try also starting instance and listener
    Let me know if this helps.
    Regards,
    Vineet

    Was the oracle-xe configure completed successfully?
    Are the pmon and listener processes running ... set your environment and connect via sqlplus if so. If no processes, the instance needs a startup.
    $ ps -ef |egrep pmon
    oracle ... ora_pmon_XE

  • The problem of installing oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2

    Hi, there,
    I meet an error when I want to run runInstaller to install oracle database 9.2.0 on Redhat 7.2 at the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant step:
    ORA-03113:end-of-file on communication channel.
    the installer report every other things are installed successfully except Database Configuration Assistant. but after I try to connect to database using sqlplus:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    after a very long responding time, there is an interior error. I don't know how to fix it. do I need reinstall the oracle or mannully configure the database? how to do that? my machine is P2 266 with 128M memory. the harddisk is 30GB. I don't know if this problem is caused by memory limitation?
    besides, who knows any other forums or website about oracle database installed on linux? I found there is very limit resource about this content on oarcle website.
    any hint will be great appreciated!

    It could be because of the memory. Oracle 9.x requires 512 MB minimum on Linux. Also the only Red Hat Oracle is now supporting is Advanced Server. But there are workarounds.
    There is an excellent web site for installing Oracle on Linux, but it has been down for the last week or two. But try it maybe next week:

  • Problem in installing oracle database 11g express edition

    while installing oracle database 11g express edition during product specific prerequisite check, checking for oracle XE service instance is failed, what to do ?

    Hello, and welcome to the OTN forums,
    the prerequisites are documented quite well. I'm not sure about the actual error message, but from what you write it sounds like you already have another Oracle XE install on your machine, possible the Oracle 10g XE. As mentioned in the Installation Guide, you may have only one instance per server, so the installer fails.
    If that's not the reason, can you please post the exact error message you receive?

  • Problem in installing Oracle database 10.2.01 and SOA suite

    <p>
    <strong>Hi ALL,</strong>
    I have the following two problems.
    I get a windows error saying "oui.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvinience" whenever i try to install Oracle database 10.2.01.(problem 1)
    However, i used the Oracle database from other system and installed SOA suite on my system. It was working fine until recently when it failed to start. I had only one option i.e. to deninstall the SOA suite.(i used the oracle deinstaller to deinstall the SOA suite) . When i tried to reinstall it again, i got a warning saying "DHCP configuration was detected on this host. The installer also detected that the local host name and the network hostname differ". When i ignored this warning and continued the installation, the set up falied to detect the Oracle database which i had used earlier(problem 2). Do I need to clear any logs or do i have any way to sort out these two problems. Please help. ?:|
    </p>

    <p>
    i am trying to install the SOA SUite against locahost. I have installed the loop back adapter but facing the same problems that i used to face earlier.

    Hi,
    I have the same problem but, how can i know what my SID is ? i am trying with "ORCL" and it doesnt work.
    Do you know in which file i can get it ? in the documentation of the installation i found this:
    "If you are not sure of the values to enter for the URL, then you can query the data dictionary to obtain these values.
    Connect as SYSTEM and run the following queries.
    To retrieve the SID, execute: select instance_name from v$instance;
    If you need to retrieve the port number, check the listener.ora file on the
    back-end database."
    But how can i query the database if i have not finished to install it yet and where is located the listener.ora file ?
    I hope you can help me.
    Thank you.

  • How to install oracle database 11g express edition on Windows 7

    Hi Guys,
    i am trying to download and install Oracle database 11g express edition on windows7 and i can't seem to get it right. i did get the download but when i try to install, it keeps saying it appears to be an invalid archive.
    Please help..

    Action - Refer to the logs or contact OracleFinding the problem is the key. "Refer to the logs" is the only option, XE has no oracle support offerings.
    Which plugin failed, and why did it fail will be important clues. There should be error messages in the log that will be helpful.
    Otherwise, we don't have much help to offer. Fixing a problem means identifying the problem and performing steps to correct it, if there a fix is available.
    A MOS lookup on the ins-20802 error has snippets from one installer session, this one is from an x64 install. Not x86. To paraphrase the details:
    ... Created a new file <drive>:<OH path>\cfgtoollogs\configToolAllCommands
    SEVERE: java.io.IOException: Access is denied
    ...So from those symptoms, the user trying to run the installer does not have appropriate rights on that drive and/or folder. The fix for that particular problem is adding the user to the local administrators group. And rerunning the install. After running the deinstall steps to clean up the installation. As specified in the XE install guide for Windows.
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm
    Also note the System Requirements, it specifies a System architecture Intel x86, which is not X64. There is no X64 installer for XE on Windows. So it might work. Or it might not if your host is x64.
    So if that is your particular error, verify that your user is in the local admins group. Either use the local users and groups applet (Start/Run/lusrmgr.msc) and open up the Administrators group. Click the Add button. Find your user. If your OS user is a windows domain user, be sure you have authenticated to the domain.
    Try the `net ...` list of the adminis group, that should reveal whom is indeed in the local administrators group:
    net localgroup administrators
    Administrator
    <domain>\Domain Admins ... # ??? is the host in windows domain ???
    <domain>\Local Admins
    <domain>\<user1>
    <user2>
    <user3>
    echo %USERNAME%
    # if relevant:
    echo %USERDOMAIN%Like it also states in the Windows install guide, under Permission Required quote:
    ... must be a member of the Administrators group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE.

    Can somebody that knows this, or has installed Oracle Express on Ubuntu, to please explain it to me what does it mean and why am I getting those errors. Please explain thoroughly as if I am an amateur person, IN DETAIL, STEP-BY-STEP. I want to run it and make it work! I heard that it encourages people to answer for points. I am open for your suggestions and experiences, as long as it's not 'use common sense', 'you're dumb', or an answer that is vaguely explained.  Thank you for those that take the time to read it.

  • Can't succesfully install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on Ubuntu

    Hi,
    I've been trying to install Oracle Database 10g xe on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I execute the .deb package (oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb) I get a quick installation that doesn't ask me for any configuration settings. When the installation is finished I don't get any menu in my Applications menu named "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" as specified in Getting Started Guide (I only get some items grouped into an category called "Other" (Backup Database, Get Started, Get Started With Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Go To Online Forum, Read Documentation, Read Online Help, Register For Online Forum, Restore Database, Run SQL Command Line, Start Database and Stop Database). As a consequence I can't access the Oracle Database Home Page.
    In addition when I click on Start Database I get the following message: "Operation failed. josep is not member of 'dba' group".
    I've tried to re-download the packages and to configure it by editing /etc/init.d/oracle-xe but this doesn't solve my problem.
    can you give me some help?
    Thabk you in advance!

    However, If i select the 'Start Database' I get this:
    C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin>
    and I can type sqlplus / as sysdba and it starts up just fine and show user lists me as "SYS".
    but if I go back to 'Run SQL Command Line' I still cannot connect as SYS or SYSDBA...I find this both confusing and frustrating. I don't know if I am in different instances or something like that, but I seem to be limited to connecting only as "SYSTEM". I need SYS because I want to practice creating datafiles, instances and things like that, but I seem to be lost.
    Also, I am trying to create a new DB connection with SQL Developer and I can only us SYSTEM for my login which, if I understand correctly, will limit my privileges. Again When I try to sign in with SYS or SYSDBA I get error'd out. When I installed Ora11gDBExpress I was prompted in input a single password that was supposed to grant me access as SYS or SYSTEM, but I am limited to only SYSTEM for some reason.
    So, I am looking for help/guidance as to what to do.
    Thanks in advance for any and all help,
    Warren

    General rule of thumb, don't use sysdba unless you want to shut down the database, or grant a database user privileges on a sys object.
    A SYSTEM connection is not "limiting", it has the DBA role which means a user with a system connection can do most anything needed, including select/update/delete/drop any user's objects as well as change parameters in the instance.
    The system user can indeed add datafiles, tablespaces, etc. The instance and database should already be created as long as the installer completed all its chores correctly. For XE, per the license agreement only one instance can run on one host. If you want to try creating a database, it will require shutting down the XE instance and creating a new database service, creating the database, and installing the system catalog and any other optional components desired. Good practice indeed, but a bit advanced for the new user.
    Do create users for schemas ... connect system; create user <username> identified by <password> and connect <username> for the schemas (a collection of objects) within the database. Grant the resource and create session privilege to <username> to allow the database user the ability to create tables, indexes, stored procedures, etc.
    There is no "or" in a sys as sysdba connection, from 10g onwards a sys connection requires using the sysdba privilege. To enable a sysdba connection, add your host user to the ORA_DBA group on the host. To verify the OS users in the ORA_DBA group, this might work for win7, in a cmd box ...
    $ net localgroup ora_dba
    ...If your OS user is in the ora_dba group the sys as sysdba password is not relevant, you can in fact type anything for a password. If you wish to connect with the sysdba privilege from a remote client, that is a bit different and requires knowing the password set in the instance password file. Which should be set the same as the system password defined in the installer, but you can change that by creating a new password file. Another slightly advanced topic.
    In Windows IMHO its better to leave the listener and database set to Manual start (in the services applet, Start/Run/services.msc) and start the listener, then the database, when its needed. At least for an XE instance, as its intended for practice and learning RDBMS management.

    I'm not sure with the solaris sparc 64.
    but the most common problem with Linux x86_64 which I assume probably similar. that type of error caused by
    you have to install glibc-devel-32 bit and libstdc++-devel 32 bit together with your 64 bit. both libraries required by the Oracle to solve the linking problem.

    probably it will help you.
    sorry, this is just my guessing of your problem.
    thanks

  • Do I need to install Oracle database 12c on PC to create tables for Weblogic server

    Hi,
    I am new to WebLogic and I am following a book Java EE Development
    with Eclipse published by PACKT Publishing to learn  Java EE.  I have installed Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse
    on the PC and I am able to log into the WebLogic Server
    Administration Console and set up a Data Source.  However the next step is to create
    tables for the database.  The book says that the tables can be
    created using SQL script run from the SQL command line.
    I cannot see any way of inputting SQL script into the WebLogic
    Server Admistration Console.  Aslo there is no SQL Command line
    in DOS.
    I have put a previous question on the Oracle Forum about the above and I  was advised to use SQL Plus
    to create the tables for the weblogic server but no mention was made of installing Oracle database.
    I have downloaded InstantClient SQL Plus and Instantclient Basic on a PC and
    put the files into the same directory C:\SQLPlus but now I am having a problem in that it is
    looking for a username and password when I run the sqlplus.exe file.
    Now I assume that I need to have an installation of Oracle databse on the
    PC so as to be able to use SQL Plus.  Am I correct in this or can I create tables for the
    datasource in weblogic without an Oracle database?
    Thanks in advance for your help. Brian

    You should install it separately and also need to change the OBIEE's user.sh to tell it where is your Oracle client installed.
