Probleme to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1

Hi,
I have some problem to install Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 9.1.
I log on a non root user and launch "./runInstaller" but nothing happens. It's only written "please wait"...
I see on the Oracle site that I must use glibc 2.1 but only if Oracle is already installed? So if you could give me some indications?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have also the same problem : when I launch the program "./runInstaller", nothing appears.
However, I thought I found a good solution on a forum, but it doesn't run.
The explication is given at the following address :
http://colalug.org/ml-archive/0210/msg00051.html
The only point where I'm not sure is when it's said to use a specific library in the "LINUX STUFF" section. They are using glibc2.1 and I'm using glibc2.3.
I have also changed the "ASSUME_KERNEL" variable to the version of my kernel, that's 2.4.21.
What are your suggestions ?
Thanks to give me an answer.

  • I met problem when installing Oracle 8.1.6 on Turbo Linux 7.0

    I met problem when installing Oracle 8.1.6 on Turbo Linux 7.0.
    After setting up environment variables, and successfully
    accessed KDE interface, everything was going on well.
    The process of installation blocked at 80% in "Database Creation
    Process" dialog window.
    I have tried two times and got the same result.
    The error message is:

    Help!

    I have done some oracle installations over RedHat 7.0 (not certificated):
    Let's check some things:
    1- You must have changed very few parameters on your shm.h sem.h files which are in /usr/include/linux directory.
    2- You need to upgrade the glibc and libstdc libraries (.rpm)
    3- You must have installed the jre116_v5 on /usr/jre and made a symbolic link like this
    ln -s /usr/jre/jre116_v5 /usr/local/jre
    4- You must include in the CLASSPATH parameter the jre116_v5 directory. It should look something like this
    CLASSPATH=/usr/jre/jre116_v5:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib
    5- Be sure to create and export all the parameters in your .bash_profile.
    6- Run the ./runInstaller.sh in a terminal window inside the Xwindow.
    You can find the jre116_v5 in www.backdown.org
    I hope these tips help you

    --------then installed and configured Required Schema using Repository Creation Utility of same version of Database 11g,
    -----------then installed Oracle Business Intelligence 11g version 11.1.1.6.0 which includes Web logic..............I am feeling that i did right at this point...........
    ..............also feeling comfortable after install Oracle Identity and Access Management 11g ..................
    -----------------but don't know how to configure OID to install Oracle Portal Forms Reports and Discoverer 11g...............
    Please help my Oracle Friends
    Your early help will be highly appreciated.
    thanks and regards
    Hassan

    You said, "...+I would like to install Release 2(11.1.1.2.0)+ ...". Be careful. 11.1.1.2.0 is not Release 2. The version for Rel 2 is 11.1.2.0, notice that there is one less "1". Also, there is no way to patch from Release 1 to Release 2.
    In EDelivery, this is what you should find if you search on "Oracle Fusion Middleware" for "Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)":
    First look for this link then drill into it:
    Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)
    In this section you will find the following:
    This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 2 (Forms & Reports)
    Oracle Forms and Reports 11g R2 (11.1.2.0.0) for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit) V28761-01
    This is the full product installation of FMw 11 Release 1 (includes Portal, Forms, Reports, and Disco)
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 1 of 4) V18785-01
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 2 of 4)

    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.2.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) (Part 4 of 4)
    This is the FMw 11 Release 1 patch set that will bring the above 11.1.1.2.0 installation to 11.1.1.6.  This is NOT a full product installation - just a patch
    Oracle Portal, Forms, Reports and Discoverer 11g Patch Set 5 (11.1.1.6.0) for Microsoft Windows x86 (64-bit) V29850-01
    There are no patch sets for Release 2 as of yet.

  • 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:

    Hello,
    Vérification de la version du système d'exploitation : il doit s'agir deredhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
    Echec <<<<So, when the Installer checked the OS Release, it didn't find the correct one.
    The message said that you should have one of this OS:
    Redhat-3, SuSE-9, Redhat-4, UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2As previously posted, you should check from the Installation Guide that you have the right OS requirements before running the Installer.
    Hope this help.

  • Problem to install oracle 8i on redhat 8

    Hi everyone,
    I try to install oracle 8i on redhat8. I copied all installation files to local computer. And when I run ./runInstaller, it just give me following message, and the GUI interface never shows up.
    Initializing Java Virtual Machine from ../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.8/1/DataFiles/Expanded/linux/bin/jre. Please wait...
    Is something wrong with JVM? Thank you very much for any input.

    Sux is a wrapper around the standard su command which will transfer your X credentials to the target user. Sux is released under the terms of the X11 license.
    Here's a short description of sux's features, mostly taken from an email I sent to the debian-devel mailing list (see the thread). I should probably transform this into a man page one day... (unless some kind soul does it for me, hint, hint).
    'sux user' and 'sux - user' behave just like su but transfer $DISPLAY and the X cookies.
    You can specify a command on the command line, even if it contains spaces. This is likely to be buggy (double-quotes...) but should be enough to let you type things like: sux - xterm -title "Root's XTerm"
    You can generate untrusted / temporary cookies for that user using '--untrusted' and/or '--timeout xxx' (see xauth generate)
    If you symlink suxterm to sux, then 'suxterm - foo' will create a new xterm for user foo (more precisely a new x-terminal-emulator with a fallback on xterm for non Debian systems). This makes '--timeout' more usable: the cookie will remain valid as long as this xterm is open. So you could type 'suxterm timeout 20 - foo' and the cookie will expire 20 seconds after the xterm has been closed (if no other X application uses it). Note that it also means you have 20 seconds to type your password. Also it's equivalent to 'sux timeout 20 - foo xterm', but the script could be modified to have a timeout by default... (Inspired by Daniel Martin).
    You can use the su '--preserve-environment' option. In that case sux will override XAUTHORITY to the so that xauth does not try to use the original user's .Xauthority file (which it obviously could not do anyway due to access rights).
    sux should work even for those using csh. But I'm not using it myself so I could not check. Let me know if there's a problem.
    you can choose how to transfer the X credentials:
    --no-cookies
    Just transfer DISPLAY, not the cookies. You could do this if you have already transfered the cookies in a previous invocation of sux.
    --copy-cookies
    Copy the cookies using xauth. This is the default method (and only method most of the time).
    --use-xauthority
    Instead of transfering the cookies, set the XAUTHORITY environment variable to access the original .Xauthority file. There's a couple caveats with this method. First, due to the access right issues it's only usable by root. But even then it may not work if the .Xauthority file is accessed via NFS, e.g. if the home directories are on NFS (note that this is quite dangerous already since your cookies will travel unencrypted over the network). Then, if root runs commands like xauth add/remove, the .Xauthority's ownership will belong to him. This will leave the original user in trouble as he will no longer be able to access X! So only use this option with great care. Finally, this method does not work if you also want to use '--untrusted' or '--timeout'.
    I set the default to '--copy-cookies' for all cases, but you can easily change the default for root by changing the sux_root_cookie_transfer variable at the top of the file.
    There's also a '--display' to specify which display to transfer in case you have access to more than one...
