Installation Guides should be clear enough, if read. Also read Release Notes for additional support/unsupport info.

However the Installation Guide for Database Client adds:
"Note: Oracle provides 32-bit (Windows x86) and 64-bit (Windows x64) versions of Oracle Database Client. _Oracle certifies 32-bit Oracle Database Client on Windows x64_." (underline added)

Can you install 9i on Solaris Intel ?

Can you install Oracle 9i on Solaris Intel ? 32 / 64 bit

Hello dear people,
I'm trying to install the 9i Database for Sun SPARC (32-bit) on an Intel machine with Solaris 8 running. I followed all steps of the installation documentation, but when I try to execute the runInstaller programm, I get always the following error:
Syntax error at row 1: '(' unexpected.
Can you tell me, which is actually the terminal Release for Intel Solaris? I were very pleased.
Thanks,
Reinaldo

Who knows - Has Oracle plan to make 9i on Solaris Intel x86 in the future?

Now Sun continue support of Solaris Intel, But Oracle release only 8.1.7 exist.
Any comments,please

Hi again,
assumption proven ;-)

Applies to: Oracle Server - Enterprise Edition - Version: 10.2.0.1
SymptomsWhile installing Oracle10gR2 on a Solaris 10 x86-64 server, Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) reports the following errors while checking the kernel parameters:
shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295 found no entry . Failed <<
shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100 found no entry . Failed <<
shmsys:shminfo_semmni=100 found no entry . Failed <<
shmsys:shminfo_semmsl=256 found no entry . Failed <<
The overall results of this check is Failed.
The kernel parameters do not meet the minimum requirements
CauseOUI is looking at /etc/system to check the kernel parameter settings, but this file is not used (by default) in Solaris 10
OUI should check the kernel parameter settings using the resource control utility ( /bin/prctl )
SolutionTo implement the solution, please execute one the following steps:
1. Verify that the kernel parameter settings are correct using the resource control utility ( /bin/prctl ) and then start OUI like this:
./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
OR
2. Include the recommended kernel parameter settings in the /etc/system file and start OUI as normal:
./runInstaller

Install Oracle on Solaris Intel

I have purchased Oracle8i Enterprise Edition, Release 2(8.1.6) for Intel Unix(Solaris Intel), and have installed successfully. However, as soon as I shut down and reboot the machine, I can connect to sqlplus
internal, but I cannot log into the database as "sys".
The procedure I did is as following:
Immediately after the installation (message says "installation successful"),
1. Log in as user "oracle" in the Bourne shell.
2. At the $ prompt, type "sqlplus internal"
3. It come out with SQL prompt
4. SQL> show user ( I typed show user under SQL prompt)
5. Then it return "sys"
Things seemed to work fine at that point.
But, when I shut down and reboot the machine and logon again, and follow the same steps 1-5 as above, it did not work. When I did the "show user" command at SQL prompt, the user is not "sys", instead it returned
" ". I followed the installation guide and tried to reinstall 5 times.
Every time I had the same problem. I was wondering if this is a bug in
the CD. How can I solve it?
Thanks,
Lillian

Got past this spot... Thanks to the beefier shared memory/semaphore settings in this website (from another response in this forum)

Oracle 9i in solaris Intel

Hello All,
Is possible to install the Oracle 9i in Solaris 8.0 to Intel?

The newest version for Solaris Intel is 8.1.7. As far as I now this version is the last on this platform/OS.

Solaris intel (x86) DCA not saving when rebooted.

I'm working with a Panasonic CF-71 toughbook laptop. I have loaded the 2.6 Solaris intel OS and the Xig PCMCIA patch. I have been successful in getting a 3Com 3C589D card to work, but only if I enter into DCA at boot time and delete the PnP ISA PCMCIA device at port 3e2-3e3 and then add a ISA PCMCIA device at port 3e2-3e3. Unfortunately this must be done every time the system is rebooted. Does any one know of a way to do this delete/add using the /etc/system file? Any help is much appreciated.

Hi
I have download Solaris 9 x86 and Cd1 at boot time gives the same error as you mentioned. I am using my Toshiba Satellite A60. I have check the HDL list and its not listed there. Does it mean I can not install Solaris 9 x86 on this box. When I boot I get the same error which is mentioned above.
For more information I never installed Solaris in past and have no idea which Disk space /partition to be created it talks about in Install Guide.
Can some please clarify and do let me know where am I going wrong and how to fix it.
Thanks in Advance

Solaris Intel to Solaris SunSparc Portability

Hi. Is anyone out there aware of any code portability issues for
a software application that is written on Solaris Intel and subsequently
deployed on a Solaris Sun Sparc workstation ?
Does the code need to be tuned ?
If needed, what is the effort required ?
Thanks.
Aran

The source code is the same for both versions of Solaris. As long as
your code doesn't make any ISA or endian assumptions, your port
should be nothing more than a recompile.

OpenGL and GLX on Solaris Intel

Can OpenGL and GLX be added to Solaris Intel without having to use Xfree86?
I have built the Mesa libraries but still need the GLX extensions.
Does any one know of an easy solution?

Hi Senthilkumar,
Thanks for reply!
I found a couple of intel 10/100 network cards in our town, there are INTEL N232 10/100 PCI, INTEL PRO100+ 10/100 PCI, Intel 8460 10/100BT, I am not sure which one you were talking about, can you give me some detail information please?
Thanks again.

RFC SDK support on solaris-intel?

I have some questions about the C SAP RFC SDK. I cannot seem to find a complete list of supported UNIX platforms.
What is the current version of the C RFC SDK?
Is it supported on the solaris intel platform?
I notice that the dynamic version of the RFC library (rfc32.dll) is installed with SAP Netweaver on Windows. Is the equivalent dynamically loaded library (i.e. librfc.so) always included with a SAP installation on UNIX as well? Does this mean that the static libraries provided in the RFC SDK are no longer required to build a client RFC application, since a client application can dynamically load the run-time library instead?

We don't certify Solaris on NT.
          You can find this information on platform support page.

You should follow the doc that you found for solaris, the thing is that the patches and fixes for this that you would found are for the PARISC server, if you can get the same patches and fixes for your intel server, use them and if you can't start the installation process, try to run installer like runInstaller.sh -ignoresysprereqs.
Greetings.

OpenMP on Solaris/Intel

Hi,
Will OpenMP be supported on Solaris/Intel?
Erling

c> Has there been a time set on when this configuration will be tested
c> and supported?
I'm afraid this is unlikely to happen at all. As far as I know,
Solaris on Intel doesn't represent a large enough target market to be
worth porting to. What little market share it ever gained is being
rapidly eaten by Linux.

64-bit compilation problem on Solaris/Intel: 7th argument not initialized

I have a problem when compiling a program on a 64-bit Solaris Intel server. The problem is that when calling a function, if the 7th or next arguments are long arguments and I pass uncasted small integers values to it, the first 32-bit of my values are uninitialized.
I have isolated the problem in the following source code.
#include <stdio.h>
#include <strings.h>
void fnc1(a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h)
long a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h;
printf("%ld,%ld,%ld,%ld,%ld,%ld,%ld,%ld\n", a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h);
void main()
fnc1(0x10101010deadbeef,0x20202020deadbeef,
     0x30303030deadbeef,0x40404040deadbeef,
     0x50505050deadbeef,0x60606060deadbeef,
     0x70707070deadbeef,0x80808080deadbeef);
fnc1(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8);
}I compile it using the following command:
cc src1.c -g $* -m64 -o prog1.exeWhen I run the resulting .exe, I get the following result:
1157442768875667183,2314885534015405807,3472328299155144431,4629771064294883055,5787213829434621679,6944656594574360303,8102099359714098927,-9187201948855714065
1,2,3,4,5,6,8102099355978170375,-9187201952591642616The problem is that the first 32 bits of my 7th and 8th arguments are not initialized when the function is called.
I know that in the following cases, I do not have the problem:
- if I cast the arguments;
- on other platforms (AIX, SunOs/Sparc, HPUX) or if I compile in 32-bit;
- if I use optimization (-xO1 to -xO5) ;
- if I prototype my function at the beginning of my source (void fnc1(long a,long b,long c,long d,long e,long f,long g,long h););
I have over 1,000,000 lines of existing code to support. I am afraid using optimization would have other impacts and for now, I cast the arguments as problems are reported. Would there be a better way to handle this? By using a compiler switch?
Thanks in advance.

But if you are passing to an ellipsis, you either cast actual arguments to the type the function expects, or the function extracts the default promoted type. Such code always works ...Yes, and developers should attempt to accomplish just that. Alas this is very difficult to ensure, particularly given the lack of a run-time type checking mechanism.In theory, proper use of the ellipsis function would be documented, and programmers would read and follow the documentation. In practice, some programmers don't read the instructions, or forget them, or someone ill-advisedly changes the way the function works so that existing calls stop working. Variable-argument functions are a fragile mechanism. (I program almost exclusively in C++, which has combinations of features such that variable-argument functions are rarely, if ever, needed.)
Can one even assume that the value of the NULL macro is correct? Never, because the C standard allows a variety of definitions for NULL, and implementations vary. Passing NULL to an ellipsis is a recipe for failure. Don't do it.

Suppose you have function FI with an ellipsis that expects to get int arguments, and another FL that expects to get long arguments. When you port the code to a 64-bit environment, function FL fails. If you use the -signext option, function FI will fail.Ah, but for us FL never fails, since the compilers always widen the arguments. I fail to see the circumstance in which widening would cause FI to fail, could you please give a more specific example?
void FI(int count, ...)
    va_list va;
    va_start(va, count);
    int t;
    while( --count >= 0) {
       t = va_arg(va, int);
       do_something(t);
}Function FI expects to extract 32-bit int arguments. If compiled with -signext, the calling function will pass 64-bit arguments. Perhaps the -signext option also causes the 32-bit extraction to be changed to a 64-bit extraction. I have no personal experience with the option, and I'm not in a position where I can experiment right now.

Thanks Bhrigu.
I have checked this site and i also downloaded the version 8.1.7 for solaris. when i try to run the ./runInstaller file it gives me a error as "Syntax error on line number 1" and returns back to $prompt. I was told that this is the version only for Sun Sparc Solaris. There is no 8i version for Solaris 8 on intel platform.
Is that right ??.. or do U have some more information on that. probably anybody has tried that or so ??..
Thanks
