Jdk error when installing ocs on redhat 2.1

Hi dear colleagues,
I have a problem while installing OCS 9.0.4.1 on a linux redhat 2.1
When i launch ./RunInstaller,
i get :
java.lang.InternalError: not implemented yet
     at sun.awt.X11SurfaceData.getRaster(X11SurfaceData.java:155)
     at sun.java2d.loops.OpaqueCopyAnyToArgb.Blit(CustomComponent.java:67)
     at sun.java2d.loops.GraphicsPrimitive.convertFrom(GraphicsPrimitive.java:451)
     at sun.java2d.loops.MaskBlit$General.MaskBlit(MaskBlit.java:186)
I looked for an answer and i found in
http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4517321.html
that
"jdk1.3.1_01 does not have that problem"
I have :
sh-2.05$ java -version
java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1)
Classic VM (build 1.3.1, J2RE 1.3.1 IBM build cxia32131-20020302 (JIT enabled: jitc))
So i'm confused....
I tried to change depth from 24 to 16 in XF86Config-4 file
but it changed nothing.
did someone knows what i have to do to correct this ?
Matthieu
ps : i'm newbie with linux and ocs.

Have you gone through all the pre-install checks and tasks? (eg. installed pre-req'd packages)

How to install 9ias on Linux quick guide

I have installed the linux version of application server a couple of times now. I have noted all the steps I took to complete the installation. Everything works except for reports. Anyway here are the steps I took to get it working. Hope it helps. Note: This is for RedHat Advanced Server 2.1, I have created a user called oracle9 to own the software. Please feel free to add comments etc.
1. Install RedHat Linux Advanced Server 2.1 - install all the packages.
2. Edit files in the following directory to allow connectivity, must be as ROOT user.
/etc/xinetd.d
3. Edit the directory permissions for /usr/local and /usr/local/src as ROOT user.
This is we can install files and utilities in these directories. Also create an oracle directory to
store the software. I created /usr/local/oracle/orahome1.
chmod 777 /usr/local
chmod 777 /usr/local/src
chmod 777 /usr/local/oracle
chmod 777 /usr/local/oracle/orahome1
4. Add /usr/sbin to the PATH environment variable so that most commands are accessible.
To do this edit the /etc/profile file.
Add the following line
PATH="/usr/bin:$PATH:/usr/X11R6/bin:/usr/sbin:/sbin"
5. Check kernel and glibc versions by running uname. ie
Kernel check is uname -r
OR
use rpm -q kernel
rpm -q glibc
The versions shoule be as follows
kernel = 2.4.9-e.3
glibc = 2.2.4-26
6. System Wide Ulimit and Swap File Settings.
Should be as follows.
time unlimited
file unlimited
data 1048576
stack 131072
memory unlimited
coredump 4194303
nofiles 2048
There are several files to enable these settings.
First we edit the /etc/security/limits.conf file to set the required limits.
File should look like this.
# /etc/security/limits.conf
#Each line describes a limit for a user in the form:
#<domain> <type> <item> <value>
#Where:
#<domain> can be:
# - an user name
# - a group name, with @group syntax
# - the wildcard *, for default entry
#<type> can have the two values:
# - "soft" for enforcing the soft limits
# - "hard" for enforcing hard limits
#<item> can be one of the following:
# - core - limits the core file size (KB)
# - data - max data size (KB)
# - fsize - maximum filesize (KB)
# - memlock - max locked-in-memory address space (KB)
# - nofile - max number of open files
# - rss - max resident set size (KB)
# - stack - max stack size (KB)
# - cpu - max CPU time (MIN)
# - nproc - max number of processes
# - as - address space limit
# - maxlogins - max number of logins for this user
# - priority - the priority to run user process with
# - locks - max number of file locks the user can hold
#<domain> <type> <item> <value>
#* soft core 0
#* hard rss 10000
#@student hard nproc 20
#@faculty soft nproc 20
#@faculty hard nproc 50
#ftp hard nproc 0
#@student - maxlogins 4
oracle9 - nofile 65536
* - nofile 65536
* - nproc 65536
* - cpu unlimited
* - fsize unlimited
* - data 1048576
* - stack 131072
* - memlock unlimited
* - core 4194303
# End of file
We now need to edit the /etc/sysctl.conf file to set the system wide ranges as ROOT user.
File should look like this.
# Disables packet forwarding
net.ipv4.ip_forward = 0
# Enables source route verification
net.ipv4.conf.default.rp_filter = 1
# Disables the magic-sysrq key
kernel.sysrq = 0
net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 1024 65000
fs.file-max = 65536
kernel.sem = 100 32000 100 100
kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
kernel.shmmni = 4096
kernel.shmall = 2097152
Now we need to edit the /etc/profile file to enable the settings when a user logs in.
The file contents should be modified as follows.
# No core files by default
ulimit -S -c 1000000 > /dev/null 2>&1
#Set the file handels
#echo 65536 > /proc/sys/fs/file-max
ulimit -n 65536 > /dev/null 2>&1
#Set the socket range
#echo 1024 65000 > /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_local_port_range
# Set the number of processes for per user
ulimit -u 16384 > /dev/null 2>&1
Kernel Parameters
Change to following directory /proc/sys/kernel and type following
echo 250 32000 32 128 > sem
echo 2147483648 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
echo 4096 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmni
echo 2097152 > /proc/sys/kernel/shmall
7. Install the ksh package if you have not already installed it on your machine.
Oracle Corporation recommends installing one of the following ksh packages:
pdksh-5.2.14-13 or other compatible packages.
RPM file is available from www.redhat.com
as root user type
rpm -i pdksh-5.2.14-16.i386.rpm
8. On Linux, port number 389 is reserved in the /etc/services file.
If you want Oracle9iAS to install using the default port number for Oracle Internet Directory,
delete the entries in the /etc/services file.
Note:
You must remove all lines containing the port number 389 from
the /etc/services file if you want to use that port number.
Attempting to comment out lines containing 389 does not free the port
9. Install JDK 1.3.1 for Linux.
This is available from java.sun.com. Although it is also included with Linux IAS9I R2
Install the JDK to /usr/local/jdk
Add the following to the /etc/profile file, and also add to path
CLASSPATH="/usr/local/jdk/lib"
LD_LIBRARY_PATH="/usr/local/jdk/jre/lib/i386:/usr/local/jdk/jre/lib/i386/classic:
/usr/local/jdk/jre/lib/i386/native_threads"
EXPORT CLASSPATH
EXPORT LD_LIBRARY_PATH
10. Add the following groups as ROOT user
oinstall, dba
groupadd oinstall
groupadd dba
11. Add oracle user to groups oinstall and dba as ROOT user
usermod -g oinstall -G dba,oracle9 oracle9
12. Apply a patch for binutils rpm:
I had to get this from metalink. Not sure where else it is available.
Run following command to get installed version of binutils rpm.
prompt> rpm -qa | grep binutils
binutils-2.11.90.0.8-12
Please note down the binutils rpm version that is shown as the output of the above command.
If the operating system is installed from the RedHat 2.1 Advanced Server CDs,
you will have binutils-2.11.90.0.8-12 version installed.
You might have newer version of binutils rpm depending on your further configuration
after default OS install. If the binutils rpm version is different from 2.11.90.0.8-12,
please download that rpm.
Upgrade to binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13 version using following command (as root user):
prompt> rpm -Uvh --force binutils-2.11.90.0.8-13.i386.rpm
13. Edit Local Hosts file
Edit so that the host is in the following format
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
192.168.3.69 lon-ias01.closepf.local lon-ias01
192.168.3.66 lon-ias02.closepf.local lon-ias02
14. Create Symbolic Link from /sbin/fuser file to /bin/fuser by entering the following command.
cd /bin
ln -s /sbin/fuser
15. Rename Linux Ldap programs
rename the ldapadd, ldapsearch, ldapmodify etc located in /usr/bin
mv ldapadd ldapadd.bak
mv ldapdelete ldapdelete.bak
mv ldapmodify ldapmodify.bak
mv ldapmodrdn ldapmodrdn.bak
mv ldappasswd ldappasswd.bak
mv ldapsearch ldapsearch.bak
16. Unset your oracle home environment variable.
unset ORACLE_HOME
17. Set your TMP, TMPDIR and TEMP environment variables.
These are located in /etc/profile
TMP="/tmp"
TMPDIR="/tmp"
TEMP="/tmp"
export TMP TMPDIR TEMP
18. Make sure you have the following X11 library XFree86-devel-4.1.0-25.i386.rpm,
which can be found of disk2 of the RedHat Advanced Linux CD v2.1. This is needed
by the linking process.
As ROOT user.
mount the cdrom.
cd /mnt/cdrom/RedHat/RPMS
rpm -Uvh XFree86-devel-4.1.0-25.i386.rpm
19. Install the application server as per the offficial install instructions. You should only have
to use mount_point/runInstaller and follow the prompts.
21. If it installs then run the interoperability patch.
22. Should be working?!?
19. To Remove an Install
WARNING : Please note that by following the processes defined
below, ALL Oracle products on the system will be cleaned
up and will not be usable. Please do not follow these steps if you do
not want to remove any Oracle Products
1. Deinstall using installer
2. Stop all running processes from the install.
3. Delete the oracle directory under /var/opt as root user
4. Delete the complete oraInventory directory
5. Delete all directories and files from ORACLE_HOME directory
6. Cleanup files under /tmp and /var/tmp as root user
8. Remove emtab in the /etc directory
9. Remove oracle files in /usr/local/bin
Hope it works.

ummm...
chmod 777 /usr/local
chmod 777 /usr/local/src
chmod 777 /usr/local/oracle
chmod 777 /usr/local/oracle/orahome1
Why on earth would you do that??? There is NO need for >that, not to mention it being a HUGE security issue. I >have an offical doc on installing and configuring 9iAS >on Linux (includes information on as 2.1 install). I >will post this evening.Your quite correct, this section could probably be trimmed from the guide. At the time it was written it was used on a development box, on a production box this would not be done. Also to get this install working when Oracle first released it we were trying anything and everything to get it working, it took around 3-4 weeks of installing, reinstalling, serveral thounsand tar's and wasted weekends. I am pretty confident the instructions will work on rhas 2.1, it probably needs to be looked at again to trim away steps that aren't needed now.
Looking forward to seeing your guide :-)

Installed Photoshop Elements 13. Opened program. FYI, I work w/3 screens. Appears in center screen, too wide and cannot minimize it. Line across top reads eLive, Quick, Guided, Expert. Only eLive works. Gray screen on rest.

I have installed Elements 13. The screen stretches too wide on the screen and I can't see the edges at all to minimize or exit. Across the top I read eLive, Quick, Guided and Expert. Only eLive comes up with anything at all. If I click on the others, I just get a gray screen. I am running Windows 8.1 x64. Thanks.

Hi,
I'm from germany so no 'best buy' but I think I will lock around sleeve/bag for a different product with same measures. Any tip?
The clear plastic case is not what I want. I would like to use the player without such protections. I just want a sleeve to protect the player while its in my jacket/pants.
Btw, i have bought this version: Creative Zen (maybe european version?). I also doesn't seem to have your mentioned sleeve. I also couldn't find it on the website.
Anyway, thank you,
Chris

Hello
never tried installation on a 64bits OS, as far as I remember, it involves 32-bit emulation. This type of installation is not recommended, we always use 32 bit distros (even on x86_64 procs), it seems that it was removed from the installation guide itself

Optus ADSL2+ and WRT610n Quick Guide to setting up.

Hi all fellow Optus (australian isp) ADSL2+ and Linksys users,
I have a quick guide to setting up your new WRT610n with the optus supplied ADSL2+ Speedstream 4200 modem. This should solve most users problems with no internet connections, firewall rules not appearing to work properly etc.
It took me several hours of stuffing around and online researching untill I got these two to work together and have full firewall funtionality!
First up.... DON'T USE the LELA to setup the router! For some unknown reason, the laptop I used to setup the router, was configured by LELA to be a proxy and gateway, and unless that laptop was on.... the router wasn't passing info through it and back out to the internet! A full Reset of the Router was needed to clear this setting!
Now Lets get started.
BEFORE inserting the router into the network and connecting everything up, we need to reconfigure the Speedstream modem to FULL BRIDGE mode. NOTE! this will infuture disable the Web interface to the DSL modem, so changing to FULL BRIDGE mode should be the last thing you do to the modem before logging out. A full hard reset (little button) will restore the web functionality again should you need to put it back to normal.
1) Setting Speedstream 4200 to Full Bridge mode - This is necessary for the Modem to fully pass on ALL of the ISP settings. Such as correct gateway info, DNS info, "REAL" online IP address (not the generic psuedo 10.x.x.x number) etc.
- To do this, open your web client, Internet Explorer or similar. And enter the IP address 10.1.1.1
- Feel free to look around the settings of the modem but don't change anything just yet. Wouldn't be a bad idea to take screenshots of all the settings pages now like I did should I need to return it to original settings.
- The Webpage of the modem will open up and click on PPP - Take note (as in write this down!) of your "PPPoE 8/35" type which you'll select in the router later, and your Username for optus logon and password (you should know that or go looking for that paperwork that has your username and password that came with your optus Modem installer CD). You will enter all this login info in the router later as the router will do the logging in and take over from the modem!
- Next, click on Mode - You will see 3 options. For most, it will currently be on Optus Bridge. This mode enables a router inside the modem and is now to be replaced by the new Linksys you just bought. By Changing this to FULL BRIDGE mode, you essentially disable the modems internal router and turn it into a dumb modem (like the good old days of dumb dial up modems yey!)
- When you've changed to FULL BRIDGE mode, it will tell you the Web interface is now disabled. Close the window. And lets get to configuring the router.
2) Plugging everything in time!
- The Speedstream 4200 ADSL2+ Modem stays plugged into the wall as normal, but the LAN cable which used to go to your computer now plugs into the WAN port of the router.
- Plug the PC into one of the LAN ports of the Router also.... or if like me, you have a Switch that all the PC's use, plug that into the router.
3) Setting up the WRT610n (or similar linksys router)
- Open Internet Explorer/Firefox and enter the IP Address of the Router (Fresh install IP is 192.168.1.1)
- Username is "admin" and password is "admin" (you'll want to change this later I'm sure)
- OK now your in! We need to setup the internet account settings.
- Setup-Basic Setup page:- Internet Connection Type will be what you saw in the modem PPP page (you did write that down didn't you?). For me, I select PPPoE.
- The enter my optus username info and password
- click on Keep Alive (30 Secs).
- Then click Save Settings at the very bottom of the webpage.
It will likely ask to reboot.... let it do so
Now at this point:
- Your modem should have always been in Sync
- Your LAN IP from the WRT610n should be in the 192.168.1.100+ range? (I changed this later to put my IPs back in the 192.168.0.100+ range so I didn't have to reconfigure static PC's or printers around my network)
- Your Router should have reset about now and hopefully logged onto the internet through the modem.
To check all is working fine. Open the Routers webpage again and click on Status. Under the Internet Connection area, Click connect if it hasn't already connected for ya. This page should auto-refresh.
Check that the connection says Connected and that the IP addresses given in all the fields appear to be internet addresses (ie not 10.x.x.x or 192.168.x.x etc). If not, check that the status lights on the modem are all correct (you know how it should look when it's ok).
Open IE or firefox and check that you have internet!
It's important to make sure that the Internet IP Address in the Status page matches the one you get from http://www.whatismyip.com/. Because if it doesn't, then the Router isn't truely at the front of the Internet-Lan boundary. If this is the case, you may still have internet working ok, but the firewall portforwards may not work as seen in other forum posts around the net.
If it's OK, then Grab a Beer and Celebrate, you've just saved yourself 6 hours of hair pulling frustration!
SUCCESS!
Now, if your so inclined.... I would highly recommend changing Admin passwords, adding security to your Wireless connections, changing your DHCP to something your comfortable with or just leave them alone if everyone is server assigned IP's. I find it's a good idea to use the DHCP Mac reservation in the basic setup so I know each PC will get the same IP each time it logs into the router and thus makes Portforwarding SOOoooo much easier knowing the IPs don't change on you when the IP lease time expires if the PC has been offline too long.
Please feel free to comment on this, I'm pretty sure 99% apart from grammar is correct! Hope it helps many new and old users.
Have a brilliant day! and may the force be with you!

Guide to installing XE and Apex on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 (64 bit)

I have just been through a time consuming and frustrating process of installing Oracle XE 10gR2 on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.3 x86-64 and I want to share my experience so that others can benefit from it and overcome the same problems more quickly.
Prior to starting I had installed OEL 5.3 and been using it for a few days. The system I am using is a home built box with an AMD Phenom X4 955 Black Edition, 8 Gb RAM, Highpoint RR2680 RAID controller with 4 1TB disks in a RAID5 array and an additional 320Gb HDD storing the OS. I am using KDE3.5 on the desktop.
The main problem I encountered was with SELinux. As I eventually intend to have this system exposed on the Internet I was reluctant to switch it off despite having read extensively about the issues surrounding it and Oracle. I had several failed attempts at the installation process before succumbing to the reality that SELinux and Oracle are not happy bedfellows. I decided to switch SELinux to permissive mode having followed the advice here.
I found a very helpful guide to installing XE on Linux here as part of the installation of an application called Spacewalk. Note that you do not need to complete the whole Spacewalk installation, but just follow the instructions in the linked page.
Before you start you need to ensure that the UID of your oracle user is less than 500. Mine was 500, so I used the following commands to fix this:
usermod -u 250 oracle
find / -uid 500 -exec chown oracle {} \;
These change the oracle UID to 250 (but check that isn't already used first!) and the find command searches for all files that were owned by oracle (but weren't after the usermod cmd) and changes them back to oracle's ownership.
Now follow the Spacewalk instructions until you reach the Server Setup section. Before you do this you need to make a couple of changes to the script /etc/init.d/oracle-xe. I found these changes in various places, such as [link(1)|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=1345771&#1345771] and [link(2)|http://dbataj.blogspot.com/2008/08/lblibrarypath-is-not-set-on-startup.html].
Note that in link(1) the oracle-xe-selinux packages installed have the same effect as the chcon command on the shared libraries so it isn't necessary to perform this step.
Open /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in vi (or your favourite editor) and do the following:
line 49: change /bin/su to /sbin/runuser
after line 52 (export PATH...) add the following lines:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
There are further changes recommended to /etc/init.d/oracle-xe in [this post|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?messageID=3201491&#3201491] but I haven't done them yet.
Having done the above changes you can now configure Oracle XE by running /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure (as root!). As I have Apache Tomcat running on port 8080 I changed the default HTTP port to 8500 but kept the listener on its default port of 1521. Once the confuration script is done you will need to change the ports SELinux uses for Oracle as follows:
semanage port -d -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 9000 - deletes port 9000, which is the SELinux default port for Apex
semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 1521 - ensure that listener port is OK (assuming you used default of 1521, change accordingly if you didn't)
semanage port -a -t oracle_port_t -p tcp 8500 - add the new Apex HTTP port to SELinux
After all this running:
semanage port -l | grep oracle
should show you:
oracle_port_t tcp 1521, 8500
I ignored the TNSNAMES.ORA part of the Spacewalk instructions and proceeded with the 'Client setup on 64bit platform' and 'Configuring sqlplus' sections.
For the latter I created a bash script which I have made available in the oracle user and my own user's home directories:
cat > configure_oracle_10g_xe.sh
ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
ORACLE_SID=XE
export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
I did this as I intend to install other Oracle databases, e.g. 11gR2, on this box later so I didn't want to put the above in .bashrc.
Having done the above you should be able to log into the database using sqlplus and the XE setup is complete.
The upgrade of Apex 2.2 to Apex 3.2.1 was fairly painless so I won't go into much detail about it - just follow the instructions provided by Oracle.
The only issue I had was right at the end of the process and is documented and answered in [this thread|http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=958611&tstart=0].
That's it - I hope somebody will find this useful.

On Oracle Metalink site, there are many documents which says that Oracle 32 bit software works on 32 bits OS and 64 bits software works on 64 bits OS. Official support is only in those combination....
So there is no good way to help you in your case-XE is 32 bit application with hard codded compiled libraries which most of them would not work on 64 bit OS.

My Quick, Guided, Expert Toolbar DISSAPPEARED!!!

Yesterday I installed Photoshop Elements 11 and everything worked great except I was unable to add text to pictures. This morning however the quick, guided, and expert toolbar is gone and I am only able to edit pictures in the quick mode. I uninstalled the program and reinstalled and that did not help. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Thanks so much Garry. I got the problem fixed, atleast for now! I first tried fixing the problem by going to Edit, clicking Preferences, selecting General, and then clicking Reset Preferences on Next Launch. I then closed Elements and restarted my computer. Nothing changed and it didn't work. I tried doing the samething 6 times...still no changes. Frustrated I uninstalled and reinstalled the program for the second time. When I opened the reinstalled Elements...the problem was still NOT fixed! Before completely giving up on the program, I once again attempted going to Edit> Preferences> General> Reset Preferences on Next Launch. I closed the program and restarted my computer once again. This time when I opened Elements...it was back to normal...and this time my text even worked. Have no idea why it didn't work before....Adobe Elements 11 has me completely lost! All is good for now though. Thanks again Garry for such a quick response and for the help!
Until Next Time!!!

Guide to install 10g on MSCS

Hello all,
Is there any step-by-step guide for installing Oracle on MSCS, or is it the same way we install on any server.
We want to install Oracle 10g (.2) on IBM HS20.
Is Oracle Fail Safe required?
It'd be good if I can get any document related to that.
Please advice

hi,
Oracle Fail Safe Integration with Windows
Oracle Fail Safe ensures that Oracle Database (and also other Oracle and third-party applications) can be configured and managed for high availability on Windows clusters. An instance runs on only one node at a time.
A cluster is a group of independent computing systems that operates as a single virtual system, eliminating individual host systems as points of failure. Oracle Fail Safe works with Microsoft Cluster Server to ensure that if a failure occurs on one cluster system, then workloads running on that system fail over quickly and automatically to a surviving system. Oracle Database combined with Oracle Fail Safe on a Windows cluster ensures protection from both hardware and software failures.
For well-configured solutions, Oracle Fail Safe ensures a surviving system to be operational in less than a minute, even for heavily-used databases.
Note:
Windows XP does not support the clustering technology found in Microsoft Cluster Server. Therefore, Oracle Fail Safe Server, which integrates with Microsoft Cluster Server, is not supported on Windows XP. Oracle Fail Safe Manager Console is supported.
See Also:

OCS on RedHat 3

Can someone post a "howto" on how to install OCS Release 2 on RedHat Entreprise Linux 3 ? Since we only have the evaluation copy of OCS, we can't access metalink to obtain this information.
Thanks...

Hi,
Try the following link on 'Oracle by example' site!
(http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/start/ocs.html)
But it would be quite difficult without Metalink access.
If you had access the Metalink Note:259433.1 it would useful for you.
Some extents:
1. Deploy (or check) following packages on RH AS.
- ORBIT-0.5.17-10.4.i386.rpm
- libpng10-1.0.13-8.i386.rpm
- gnome-libs-1.4.1.2.90-34.1.i386.rpm
If you managed to deploy OCS components you would deploy
OCS Patchset (9.0.4.2.0) too.

Can OAS9i and Portal be installed on Linux RedHat(kernel 2.2.19) platform?

Hi,
My question is the same as the subject written.
Can OAS9i and Portal be installed on Linux RedHat(kernel 2.2.19) platform? Basically, first, I can't find the OAS9i "*.cp" image files for RedHat Kernel 2.2.16 or later use, second, what I can download from OTN site is V1.0.2.2.1 which is for Linux RedHat Kernel 2.4.3-12 or later use. And I downloaded all the files which OAS9i version is V1.0.2.2.1, and failed to install on my platform. So I want to know is there anybody installing OAS9i and Portal successfully on RedHat 6.2(Kernel 2.2.19, glibc 2.1.3)? Or can share on other RedHat version had any successful installation processes or suggestion. Thanks in advance.
Regards!
Frank

Any Guide to install Windows 8 Pro 64-bit on Retina 13??

Any Guide to install Windows 8 Pro 64-bit on Retina 13?? Is it possible??? I was able to install Win7, but stuck on a blue black screen on self-restart after Installing Win8.. The same iso works fine with Oracle VM... Any help? Many Thanks....

Try parallels.com. It is a virtual machine which you can have Mac and Windows both running at the same time. I currently have it installed on my Macbook Pro 13" Non Retina and it works great!
I know for a fact Windows 8 is compatible and it is also Mountain Lion compatible as well.
