Problems installing on Corel Linux

This is my first time trying to install Oracle 8i.I know Corel isn't as common as say RH but I hope someone will have a clue what to do.
I am running the orainst file in the orainst directory and it starts fine until I get to a point where it says "please run oratab.sh" or something like that, but when I log on as root and run oratab.sh it gives me an error "file not found" Anyone have an idea how to get by this?

1. when your logged on as root are you in the oracle home directory.
2. how did you kick off oratab.sh? if you tried ./oratab.sh it will work.

  • Problem Installing Oracle8i on Linux

    Hello..
    When i try to install Oracle 8i in my RedHat Linux 6.1 , i am getting an error
    Error in CreateOUIProcess():-1
    : Bad Address.
    at the start itself..
    Any one knows what is problem??

    This is a known problem.
    Firstly, make sure that you're running the right version of the JVM. I
    don't know what Oracle do with their software, but it's very dependent
    on the version you use.
    Secondly, it might help if, instead of running runInstaller from the
    root of the CD, you move into install/linux and run the runInst.sh
    shell script instead.
    This problem seems more common on RedHat 6.1 than 6.0 and could be
    something to do with a newer C library.
    I've also heard reports that if you have the wrong version of Gnome
    you might get this problem. Upgrade or switch to another environment
    such as KDE or Fvwm2.
    Hope this help you!

  • Anyone install 8i on Corel Linux

    I would like to try Oracle8i on Corel Linux. Has anyone tried this. If so what were some of the issues that I should be concerned with.

    Just discovered one more thing:
    After the installation is done, you may notice that sqlplus is not working (as well as a bunch of other things). That's because there are a number of libraries missing and linking process failed.
    To fix this problem I did two things:
    1. I had to go back into the Java installer and install everything that there was available. In fact, I went back into installer twice (because of the way it works). The third window during the installation (called "Available Products") has three radio buttons. You go through the first one during initial install, then come back twice for the other two (click everything that's unchecked each time around). That way you end up with all the libraries possible installed.
    2. I got the 8.1.5.0.2 patch from technet at http://technet.oracle.com/tech/linux/
    Followed the instructions in README. After the patch is done, it asks you to check the log files and relink Oracle Intelligent Agent. Here's how I did the relinking part:
    cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib
    gmake -f ins_oemagent.mk agent
    If you don't have gmake, create a link like this:
    cd /usr/bin
    ln -s make gmake
    After all that I ended up with updated and working sqlplus, svrmgrl, and Java utilities like netasst, netec (although the last two crash when you try to test a connection). The database is accessible through svrmgrl and sqlplus, and from outside the box I use sqlplus and Net8 clients running on NT.

  • NW04s Linux Trial : problem installing IBM JDK Fedora Core 6

    Hi,
    I'm trying to install the NW04S Linux Preview on a Fedora Core 6 distribution and I'm encountering a problem with the IBM JDK 1.4.2 installation.
    I've downloaded the RPM package from IBM (IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-7.0.x86_64.rpm
    ), installed it as root but when I try to invoke the virtual machine (java) or the compiler (javac), I got the following error :
    libjvm.so preloadLibrary: /libj9vm22.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
    libjvm.so failed to load: j9vm22
    Has anyone tried to install the Linux Preview on Fedora and encountered the same problem. It might be connected to some sort of the linux dynamic linker/loader (ld.so) or versions of librairies.
    I'm really lost here and I won't be able to start the installation without a working virtual machine.
    Thanks

    I have double checked the link provided to the IBM JDK in the Linux Trial and it seems I had the wrong version. I've downloaded IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-7.0.x86_64.rpm (1.4.2-7) and the special version for SAP is the IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-2.0.x86_64.rpm (1.4.2-2).
    I have installed it : rpm -ivh IBMJava2-AMD64-142-SDK-1.4.2-2.0.x86_64.rpm
    I have installed it and activated it as the default JVM using alternatives command :
    alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /opt/IBMJava2-amd64-142/bin/java 2
    alternatives --config java
    I now have a different error :
    [root@macpro ~]# java
    JVM not found: libjvm.so  - libjvm.so
    What could have I done wrong ?
    Thanks for you help

  • Problem installing language pack manually under Linux

    I had downloaded Asian language pack to be install under Ubuntu Linux. When ran the installer script using sudo I been prompted to enter the path where Adobe Reader was installed.
    The problem seems to accept path name that have the word "acroread" only as the default option was under /opt path. My installation was under /usr/lib32/Acrobat/Reader8/bin and the installer script does not recognize that.
    Help needed here. Thanks

    Hi,
    If you used the standard installation for reader, the path should have been /usr/lib32/Adobe/Reader8/bin and not /usr/lib32/Acrobat/Reader8/bin. Could you confirm how you performed the installation?
    The solution is to uninstall and re-install the reader using the standard location. We highly recommend that you install under /opt if it's a system-wide installation. Installing under /usr/lib32 seems strange given that the reader consists of more than just libraries.
    If that's not possible, you can fix it by tweaking the INSTALL script that is part of the language pack installer. Change line 198:
    from:
    198 if [ ! -d "$dir/Adobe/Reader8/Reader" -o ! -d "$dir/Adobe/Reader8/Resource" ]
    to:
    198 if [ ! -d "$dir/Acrobat/Reader8/Reader" -o ! -d "$dir/Acrobat/Reader8/Resource" ]
    and specify /usr/lib32 as the path of installation when prompted.
    Let us know how you progress.

  • Problems Installing Designer 6.0 over Oracle 8i (Linux SUSE 8.0)

    I have problems installing Designer 6.0 over Oracle 8i (Linux SUSE 8.0). When I try to create the repository the installation hang up. I try over Oracle 8i (WIndows 2000) and the problems remain.
    Please any body can help?
    Is it possible to install Designer 6i and generate forms 6.0 (I mean for using Developer 6.0 (NOT 6i))?
    Best regards,
    JAGC

    Marcel,
    I had the same problem. Oracle gives as an answer that Designer 6.0 is not supported against 8.1.7. In the specified package a statement is issued which is a problem for 8.1.7. I changed that package and now it works fine.
    Comment as below and replace with the delete statement, then it compiles fines.
    I don't know if any problem can occur after that, but a Migration from a 1.3.2 repository to 6i works fine through this repository. Hope this helps.

  • 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.

  • Problem installing collaboration suite on linux

    hi
    im trying to install ocs on linux redhat es 3.0
    after installing the infrastructure it goes ok
    while installing the storage and database creation
    hangs at "running custom scripts" any body a clue
    note that it is a single box installation

    You need to have:
    - Ssh running on the remote server
    - An ssh client on your local PC (e.g. PUTTY, it's a freeware), capable to tunnel and forward X traffic
    - An X client running on your local PC
    Then:
    - On the server, configure X to accept connections from your PC:
    export DISPLAY=your_ip_address:0
    - Then, on the server, you have to enable your PC to use X but I can't remember the command.... will search for it and update the thread
    - Configure and activate the local X client on your PC
    - Configure PUTTY to forward X traffic. Connect via ssh logging in normally to the remote machine. Just leave the session open (maybe it's a good idea to remove any timeouts parameters). The SSH tunnel is now built, and the X traffic should be OK
    - Test the connection: if you type "xclock" in the SSH window, a nice little analogic clock will appear on your PC desktop (if everything is OK).
    - If the clock appears.... Well, go on with your remote installation! :-)

  • Yast installation problem on Oracle Enterprise Linux Rel 5 Upd 2

    Hi,
    I installed Oracle Enterprise Linux Rel 5 Upd 2 on a new server (Intel 64 bit) with the downloads from oracle
    (Enterprise-R5-U2-Server-x86_64-disc1.iso till Enterprise-R5-U2-Server-x86_64-disc6.iso).
    Then I wanted to install Yast for administering my machine and downloaded yast_el5_x86_64.tar, again from Oracle. Running the Yast install routine it required the perl-Digest-SHA package. I downloaded that from Oracle ULN and installed it.
    Now, running the Yast install routine again, I get a bunch of warnings and errors about failed dependencies and NOKEY's.

  • Problem with installation on LINUX

    Hi,
    i´m trying install jdev on linux (suse 9.0). I set path for jdk a jvm and when run jdev.exe, i get this exception:
    java.lang.InternalError: Can't connect to X11 window server using ':0.0' as the value of the DISPLAY variable.
    Can you help with this problem?
    Thanks

    Try executing "xhost +" before running JDeveloper. Did you login via XDM as a different user than you are using to run JDev? That's normally the cause for these X permission issues.
    Hope this helps,

    Hey Eran,
    I guess, you can find the solution to your problem here:
    [http://forum.ubuntuusers.de/topic/jmf-java-media-framework/#post-1806940]
    It works well on Ubuntu, but since the error on Ubuntu looks exactly the same as on Centos, I think it should work for you as well.

    It's probably not supported on RHEL5/Centos5/etc., but...
    You can get the installer to function using the following steps:
    - extract the cal_linux_*.tar.gz, and cd into the OracleCalendar_inst directory
    In there is the actual installer, cal_linux.
    - the cal_linux is shell script wrapped around some binary blobs. The installer's
    problem is that Oracle is setting the LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5 environment
    variable, which is a mistake on RHEL5. You need to make it not set that variable,
    but you need to do so in a way that the size of the shell script does not change at all,
    and none of the binary blobs are impacted.
    - the approach I took was
    mv cal_linux cal_linux.BAK
    sed -e 's/LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5/LD_ASSUME_KERNEL= /g' < cal_linux.BAK > cal_linux
    chmod a+rx cal_linux
    cal_linux -i gui
    Note: you must have exactly 5 spaces in the substitution part of the sed command, because you're replacing 5 characters (2.2.5), and the size of the shell script must not change.
    If you do that, the installer should run (one warning from awk still) and you should be able to install the product.
