Repository Creation Assistant installation problem

I am following the steps in http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/install.1111/e12002/sso_das002.htm to install Oracle SSO for OID 11g. In step 3, it require to use RepCA (repository creation assistant) to load SSO so I go ahead to install RepCA but it got a linkage error during the installation. I check the install log and it indicate a missing shrept.lst file. Where does the file come from?
Start output from spawned process:
+/u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.4.3.1/RepCA/bin/genclntsh+
genclntsh: Could not locate /u01/app/oracle/product/10.1.4.3.1/RepCA/ldap/admin/shrept.lst

Many thanks

Error in Installing SSO Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (10.1.4.3.1)

I am trying to Install Portal Forms Reports 11, so I had to Install all prerequisites
My Machine Specifications:-
1- Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.5 x86-64
2- DB 11g R2
3- WebLogic 10.3.3 (X64)
4- Oracle Identity Management 11.1.1.2.0
I was executed the inspre11.pl with -op1
than I was trying to Install SSO Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (10.1.4.3.1)
in the last step (Step 7 - Loading Repository)

I encountered this error :-

what can I do ? my Database is start up and the connection is OK !!!!!!!!!!!
I followed the oracle documentation:-
Installation Guide for Oracle Identity Management 11g Release 1 (11.1.1) E12002-02 October 2009
now we are going to 2011 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Is there another newer Installation guide from oracle?
thank you

Good question, rozester.
I encountered this problem also, while trying to install the SSO MRCA 10.1.4.3.1 on 64-bit RHEL5 (though it's at version 5.7 but I'm positive that won't make any difference to the result).
This may or may not match your situation, but when I looked in the log file $ORACLE_HOME/assistants/repca/log/repca_<datestamp>.log, I saw what was probably the reason behind the error:
<$ORACLE_HOME>/bin/sqlplus: error while loading shared libraries: libclntsh.so.9.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
I think I remember seeing that the link operation during installation had failed, but I hoped it would be OK. And it possibly would have been, if I'd remembered to specify the destination database Oracle home rather than the SSO MRCA Oracle home when prompted (on the page where it asks for database home and log file path). Perhaps then it would have used the sqlplus binary from the database oracle home, and since that one definitely works, it might have worked. But before I thought of that, I did a workaround; I installed the SSO MRCA on a 32-bit RHEL5 box (using the same directory paths) and copied the shared library files to the 64-bit box's shared library directory via scp as follows:
cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib; scp -pr * oracle@rhel64box:$PWD/
When I re-ran $ORACLE_HOME/runRepca, it then worked without error. Another thing I could have tried is just running runRepca on the 32-bit RHEL5 box, and that probably would have worked too, but it probably would have been a lot slower compared to running it locally on the destination server; it's takes quite a while as it is.
Hope this helps. I'm sure it'll help me if next time I do this I forget what I did before and go searching again ;-)

Installing of Grid Control failed at Repository Creation Assistant

I have a "clean" Windows Server 2003 machine (formatted hard disk, installed the OS and applied all service pack and critical system updates). I was trying to install Oracle Grid Control 10.1 for Windows.
Everything went OK until it reached the "Configuration Assistants" step. The "Enterprise Manager Repository Creation Assistant" step was failed. I looked into the log file and saw messages like this:
-------------------- (start) -------------------------
"'stty' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file."

-------------------- (end) -------------------------
This got me puzzled. What problem could this be?
I realized that I was using DHCP, and I am now in the process of installing a loopback network adapter. But is there any other area I should check too?

This ierror mean listener is not running ,start the listener and try again.

Metadata Repository Creation Assistant fails with ORA-01119


Hi All,
My DB version is 10.1.0.2 and I've upgraded the same to
10.1.0.4.2
In order to install B2B, I started off by installing the
Metadata Repository Creation Assistant.
After the initial steps, I got the following message:
<h5>
OracleAS RepCA was not able to find the Oracle Text Supplied
Knowledge Base in the database specified. </h5>
<h5>If you are planning to use this repository for installing
OracleAS Portal, you have to install Oracle Text Supplied Knowledge Base.
Oracle Text Supplied Knowledge Base can be installed in the database using
Oracle Database 10g Companion CD.</h5>
<h5>
If you are not planning to use this repository for
installing OracleAS Portal, you may continue further. Continue? Yes/No?</h5>
I continued with "Yes" and I chose the storage option as
"Regular or Cluster File system". In the next step -<strong>Specify Tablespace
information</strong>, I chose to install it in the C:\ , where there was approx 18GB
of free space. Yet, I encountered the following error:
<h5>
Unable to create tablespace. Please see the OracleAS RepCA
log file for more details.</h5>
<h5>ORA-01119 error in creating database file 'string'</h5>
<h5>Cause: Insufficient space on device or invalid database file

<h5>Action:</h5>
<h5>a) Verify the database file path specified.</h5>
<h5>b) Decrease the size of the requested file or allocate a
file on another device with more available space. If a file size was not
specified in the statement, then specify a file size smaller than the available
space on the device.</h5>I have verified the database file path. I also tried
decreasing the size. I further tried using another directory where there was
11GB of free space. It still didn't work.
Please HELP!
-Suhas.

Hi Suhas,
Can you please do the following?
1. Please try pointing to C:\b2b.dbf file during installation and see if the installation goes fine or not.

CD2 of Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (10.1.2.0.3) bad

Top Url of Page reads: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/ias/htdocs/101202.html
CD2 of the Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (10.1.2.0.3) downloads fine and my cksumm of the file matches what I see on the download site of:
688884944 104409600 as_hp_risc_mrca_101203_disk2.cpio
However when I try to cpio in the file, I get the following error:

End of volume
errno: 25, Can't read input
So if I could have you send me the correct cpio file at [email protected] it would be most helpful.

I ended up ordering the full HP 10gAS R2 disk set to get this. Would be nice if someone from Oracle would respond about the bad file though.

Invalid log directory in Metadata Repository Creation Assistant

Hi all,
I have on my laptop with OS Vista 64bit installed database version 10.2.0.3.0 and standalone AS (resp. whole SOA Suite) version 10.1.3.3. I wanted to install and configure OID not to separate, but to existing database. At first, I downloaded and successfuly installed Metadata Repository Creation Assistant (as_windows_x86_mrca_101401_disk1/2.zip). But when I run Oracle RepCA, in step 1 of 2: Specify Oracle Home Path, I get error Invalid log directory.
As Oracle Home Path I typed D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1 (as it is in registry)
As Log File Directory I tried D:\product\mrca\assistants\repca\log, D:\log etc.
Could you help me, how to solve it?
Thanks,
Peter

There is a Patch for Windows Server 2008.
-->
Patch 7497474
Description: 10.1.4REPCA ON WIN 2008: NOT ABLE TO LOAD SCHEMAS USING REPCA INTO THE DB
For me it was the solution. Install the patch (follow the instruction in the readme.txt)
After that the RepCA accepts the Log File Directory.

OAS 10g metadata repository creation assistant & database version issue

Hi,
I have to install Oracle Application Server 10.1.2.0.2 on a server which already has an Oracle database 11g running on it and I dont want to install another database due to the load factor. I am not sure if I could use that database
(version 11g) for the metadata repository. I know that we can use an existing database for the creation of metadata repository using the metadata creation assistant but I am a bit worried about the version of the database which is 11g whereas the application server and the metadata creation assistant both are 10.1.2.x.
Your help is highly appreciated.
Cheers,
Omer

MRCA 10.1.2.0.2 cannot be used to install a repository in an 11g database. If you want to use MRCA 10.1.2.0.2 with an 11g database, you will need to install a 10g database first, create the metadata repository and then upgrade the database to 11g. Not applicable in your environment as you already have a 11g database.

EJ

Repository Creation Utility installation

Hello,
I have downloaded BIPublisher_11.1.1.3_Desktop and want to install it on my machine (windows 32bit).
in the tutorial, it is sad that before installing BI Publisher I have to execute the Repository Creation Utility ( RCU) scripts in Oracle Database 11g.
I have an Oracle 11g XE installed on my machine in C:\oraclexe, and it is started.
I have downloaded ofm_rcu_win32_11.1.1.3.3_disk1_1of1 package and started it.
I have a problem on a step 2 - Database connection. I get an error - Invalid service name.
Where do I get the Service name, please!?

Ok, great! One thing solved
Next problem:
in the tutorial, which I'm trying to run, it says:
Enter the URL for BI Publisher in the browser window, which is of the format-
http://<hostname>: <port >/xmlpserver/. For example- http:/localhost:9704/xmlpserver/
I have installed BIPublisher_11.1.1.3_Desktop
I am entering:
http:/127.0.0.1:9704/xmlpserver/
and getting an error - Could not connect to...
The question is - How do you access BI Publisher interface?
Did I installed the correct version at all??

Forms Migration Assistant installation problem

The output of the log file is below. Please if anyone know the solution for this problem or have any idea it would be so helpful.
I need it for my thesis to be given this week.

Metadata Repository Creation Assistant cannot connect SYS

Hi!
I have Oracle10.2.0.1.0 running on Oracle EL4. ORACLE_HOME is /opt/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 and ORACLE_SID is "orcl".
I have installed MRCA in /opt/app/oracle/product/10.1.4.0.1/mrca. After installation, I run MRCA with /opt/app/oracle/product/10.1.4.0.1/mrca/runRepca. When I get to the section to enter connection information, I enter the SYS password but it fails to connect.
I can go into sqplus and do sqlplus /nolog , and then do connect / as sysdba (as user oracle). That works. However, I have the administrator client software installed in /opt/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1, and when I launch "oemapp control" I cannot connect sys as sysdba (I get an insufficient privileges error).
Please help!

there are prerequisits to RepCA, did you check all of them?<<To be honest with you, no.
The OAS MRCA User's Guide has over 25 pages of install requirements (Sections 1.3, 1.5 and 1.6, and surprisingly, the section for installing RepCA, 1.4 comes before the requirement sections for the database and OID), with lots of rabbit trails to follow (for steps here, go here; this stuff is discussed over there, etc) to follow before you can get the whole picture.
In all fairness to Oracle, there's plenty of information there in the docs, not just in a well organized manner, IMHO. Of course, complexity helps Oracle University fill up training sessions. :) For someone who simply wants a cookbook to get up and running in as short a timeframe as possible so that s(he) can start doing work with these technologies (for example, a Java developer that doesn't need/care to know about Oracle DB administration but that needs access to a DB or Portal instance to work on his/her projects but has no access to a DBA resource) following a long trail of docs, release notes, addendums, and interspersed bits of knowledge is just running out of luck.
So what I did is, since RepCA runs its own requisites check when you launch the installer, and my intended install met all of them (except shmmax being like 4GB; my system only has 3GB) I went with that. With help from this forum I was able to figure out how to proceed with the install... now the message about RepCA not supporting Oracle DB 10g 10.2.0.1.0... on Oracle EL4... if it doesn't work I don't know yet what I'm going to do. I've spent significant time working through the matrix to identify a set of components that can happily live with each other and allow me to do some work!
Thanks for your input. I'll follow the link and be more patient and read more (on the prerequisites) and hopefully I'll be able to navigate the maze in order to help out another newbie tomorrow.
Thx!

Repository Creation Utility Problems

I am having an unbelievable amount of grief with the Repository Creation Utility.
I have an Oracle 11g database called ORCL running on a server with a static ip address.
I cannot get past the database connection screen
Whatever I try I get
Unable to connect to the database using the provided details.
Please enter a valid hostname and port or check if the listener is up and running.
This happens weather I run rcu remotely or locally.
I know the host and port are reachable because
telnet 192.168.1.5 1521
Returns the following
Trying 192.168.1.5...
Connected to centos5 (192.168.1.5).
Escape character is '^]'.
Which means that port 1521 on 192.168.1.5 is open and there's something listening on port 1521.
This works locally and remotely
I can connect to ORCL both locally and remotely via sqlplus.
The listener is definitely up and running
lsnrctl status returns the following

PS
I ended up using a 10g database. The RCU worked without difficulty.
Edited by: tcavanna on Aug 21, 2009 10:32 PM

You have 2 options to fix this problem.
1. Hack the RCU user creation script, (create_user.sql). For me it was located at (/rcuHome/rcu/integration/biplatform/oracle/scripts)
2. Borrow a shotgun and kill Oracle's DB product manager. (recommended)
