SuSe or RedHat on Linux

We are going to install 9i on a linux system, we were planning on using SuSe but heard that Oracle is not going to support Suse, but Redhat. Is that true, if not which OS would be better to use?

Hi guys,
RedHat AS and Suse Linux Entreprise are both certified. If one user here could tell me if one is better for Oracle and why is one better than the other for Oracle, i would be very interrested.
Of course you may have your own preferences for the environment, one would prefer RedHat, one would prefer SuSe. But specifically to Oracle -it is an Oracle forum here- where is the difference?
I would tend to say the best is to use the platform you feel confortable with, but I would be please to hear more objective comments here.
Thanks a lot for your feedback.

Installation of 11.5.10 on Linux (Suse or Redhat)

Has any one had succes of installing 11.5.10 on Suse or redhat? Does anyone know where i could find the installation/upgrade document?
Kind regards,
Dwayne

The following guides provide a basic outline of what you would need to do.
The simple web alias for the Novell Oracle documentation is www.suse.com/oracle, then click on Documentation.

http://ftp.novell.com/partners/oracle/docs/10gR2_openSUSE102_introduction.pdf
Install Suse Linux 10.1 with at least the following groups:
Graphical Base System
KDE Desktop Environment
C/C++ Compiler and Tools
Under partitioning, ensure you have 2GB minimum for swap. I have 2GB physical and 2GB swap, and swap is usually near 1GB with all services running. I recommend starting with 4 or 6 GB of swap (2x-3x physical ram).
I used to prefer running 11i on reiserFS due to superior write speeds and better storage allocation of the 700,000 small 11i files. ReiserFS is now in maintenance mode from both Oracle and Novell standpoints, so if you are starting out with a fresh install, choose ext3 with the data=writeback mount option.

If you want to test Workflow notifications, edit /etc/dovecot/dovecot.conf and set:

SSL enabled IMAP for 11i was only enabled after ATG.H RUP 3, and not really required small training environments.
Toolkit for Oracle is compiled for Suse 10.1 on http://packman.unixheads.com/suse/10.1:
tora-1.3.21-0.pm.2.i586.rpm. Otherwise, you can download an rpm of Freely Available SQL GUI tool SQL Developer from technet.oracle.com.
Run Online Update for all updateable packages. This will bring the Sun Java plugin up to 1.5.0_07.

Run “/usr/sbin/rcoracle start“ to set kernel parameters.
1) Setup the environment as you would for running Applications on RH 4 or SLES9
I.E. follow Oracle Applications Installation Update Notes, Release 11i (11.5.10.2)
http://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=316806.1
2) Remove any LD_ASSUME_KERNEL references in O/S /etc/profile.d files
3) Comment out LD_ASSUME_KERNEL entries in $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh and $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh
if [ ${setflag}x = "x" -a $os = "Suse" ]; then
# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.21"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
os="Suse"
fi

# LD_ASSUME_KERNEL="2.4.19"
# export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL

fi
If doing a rapid install, the database startup will fail and rapidwiz will prompt to ignore or retry. At this point, edit $ORACLE_HOME/appsutil/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above and click on retry. It will then run to the autoconfig step at the end and error out. Just hit cancel, edit $AD_TOP/bin/adgetlnxver.sh as shown above.
At this point, go to $APPL_TOP/admin, and in sid_host.xml,
replace
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.4.2_04</sun_plugin_ver>
with
<sun_plugin_ver oa_var="s_sun_plugin_ver">1.5.0_07</sun_plugin_ver>
Then run autoconfig.
Register the Sun Java Plugin with Firefox by creating a soft link in /usr/lib/browser-plugins:
# cd /usr/lib/browser-plugins
# ln -s /usr/lib/jvm/java-1.5.0-sun-1.5.0_07/jre/plugin/i386/ns7/libjavaplugin_oji.so
This will allow you to open 11i forms that require Jinitiator in Windows via the Sun Java Plugin in either Firefox or SeaMonkey (the Mozilla replacement) on your Suse 10.1 machine.
4) In order to relink cplex library executables (MSC, MSO, MSR, MST, WIP, etc), edit $AD_TOP/bin/adrelinknew.sh and add the following LD option (-Wl,--noinhibit-exec) in the LINUX section:
LINUX)
LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'
DEBUG_LDFLAGS='-g -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -ldl'

if test -f "/etc/redhat-release"; then
CPP_LIBS='/usr/lib/libstdc++-2-libc6.1-1-2.9.0.so'
elif test -f "/etc/SuSE-release"; then

to CPP_LDFLAGS='-s -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib -L$(ORACLE_HOME)/lib/stubs -Wl,--noinhibit-exec'
After this change, you can apply any MRP, ASCP patch and all executables will relink correctly. You can also use adadmin to relink all executables and it completes without error.
5) For Discoverer 4.1.48.08, Follow Metalink Note 280598.1 Discoverer 4i On Linux: Required Patch and Configuration for Discoverer Server Stability to use JDK 1.3.1 and oadj. I updated the autoconfig template files with this change after applying 3895177. Discoverer viewer and plus standard BIS reports all open correctly on SLES-10/Suse 10.1
6) If you want to apply Developer 6i Patchset 17 or 18 to your 11i system, edit $ORACLE_HOME/forms60/lib/cus_forms60w.mk and ins_forms60w.mk and remove the -Bstatic

Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4, Unit

Hi All,
My Oracle apps 11.5.10.2 is running on Suse 10, I want to upgrade my DB from 9205 to 10.2.0.1. While running the 10g runinstaller I am getting below error, I know we can install 10g on Suse 10 by passing ignore parameter with runinstaller, but will there be any issues in future with oracle apps...?

Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1, RedHat Enterprise Linux, MySQL, ODBC

Iu2019m confused about connecting to an ODBC source from a report within CMC. Iu2019m a Unix guy; I donu2019t know much about Crystal reports, but Iu2019m working with a Crystal guy to get this thing working.
 
First, background: I have installed Crystal Reports Server 2008 V1 in RedHat Enterprise Linux (5.4), and itu2019s running just fine! Iu2019m using the included Tomcat application server, but Iu2019m storing CMS and Audit data our local running copy of MySQL (5.1.42). The RHEL install is native 32-bit (the only way I could get it to work), Crystal is storing and retrieving data from MySQL, The Central Management Console is responding to port 8080 over Tomcat, Iu2019m able to log in and see stuff, and so far, life is good.
 
Now, where Iu2019m stuck: the data weu2019re trying to build reports from also resides in this local Linux / MySQL install, and connecting to it from a report within CMC is where Iu2019m lost.
 
First, I successfully installed the unixODBC and MyODBC drivers in Linux. Iu2019m able to connect to MySQL successfully using the isql utility. Here are my conf files:
 
<pre class="jive-pre"><code class="jive-code jive-java">/etc/odbc.ini
[DSN_NAME]
Driver = MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver
DATABASE = project_web_prod
DESCRIPTION = Project Description
UID = username
PWD = password
SOCKET = /var/lib/mysql/mysql.sock
/etc/odbcinst.ini
[MySQL ODBC 5.1 Driver]
Driver = /usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so
UsageCount = 1
</code></pre>
 
Again, this all works with isql (Iu2019ve even used both a socket connection, and port 3306, in odbc.ini).
 
Now, our Crystal guy uploads a report into the CMC. I go to Folders -> <Project Folder>, right-click the report I want to test, click Database Configuration, and check the option Use custom database login information specified here. I select database driver ODBC from the dropdown, and type in the server, database, username, and password info. However, when I try to run the report, it fails to connect.
 
So, stupid question, can Crystalu2019s CMC use the system ODBC configuration options? (The ones stored in /etc). Because I saw an odbc.ini file in ~crystalinstalldir/bobje/. I edited it to match the contents of my /etc/odbc[inst].ini files, but to no avail. I saw that Crystal has itu2019s own ODBC engine, but it doesnu2019t support MyODBC driver, does it? I even tried hacking env.sh to use the system unixODBC library instead of the included one, but no luck.
 
So, in short, my question: how do I simply get reports in CMC to connect to a MySQL data source (using ODBC)?
 
Thanks so much! An answer to this question will save my day!
 

Thank you, Efstratios, for the helpful reply!
So, I followed the directions in the PDF file you attached, and everything went smoothly. However, Iu2019m still not able to connect to ODBC within CMC.
Hereu2019s what I did:
<ul style="list-style-type:disc">
<li>Copied the unixODBC libraries over to <installdir>/bobje/enterprise120/linux_x86/odbc/lib</li>
<li>Removed MySQL ODBC connector 5.1, installed MySQL ODBC connector 3.51.</li>
<li>Edited <installdir>/bobje/defaultodbc.ini, added my DSN and MySQL library info as per the instructions (I have both an odbc.ini, and defaultodbc.ini, identical files, just to be safe)</li>
<li>Tested the connection using these libraries, this odbc.ini, and isql. Worked just fine</li>
</ul>
So, my problem seems to be in getting the CMC to actually use my ODBC setup!
Any other hints / things I could try?
When I right-click a report, and go to “Database Configuration,” which connection options should I use for the report? Iu2019ve tried both “Use original database logon information from the report,” and “Use custom database logon information specified here” (using the ODBC option from the drop-down menu). Either way, if I enter in the database, username, password, and then try to run the report (“Run Now”), I get this message in the History: “Failed - Information is needed before this report can be processed.”
Is there another place I could get a more helpful error message? Or is there, perhaps, another way I could test database connectivity from within CMC? I wish there were at least a “Test Database Connection” optionu2026 :P
Thanks so much for your help!

Installing OBIEE on 64 bit Redhat Enterprise Linux 5

Hello,
We have a 64 bit Redhat Enterptise Linux 5 box, and I installed on it the 32 bit Oracle Database client as well as the OBIEE software.
The 64 bit installation requirements state: "For 64-bit Linux system installations, you must use the Oracle Database Client 32-bit libraries."
However, the installer never prompted me for the location of the 32 bit Oracle Database Client libraries.
How can I make sure that these libraries were indeed used during the installation?
Thank you very much.
-sb

The installer does not reference any libraries. You will need to place them in the correct or refer to the Database client libraries via your system path for your Server to work correctly.

Is Forms 10g certified on Redhat Enterprise Linux 5 ??

I don't think. of sure RHEL 5 is not certified for DB 10gR2 and even for OAS 10g.
Even if I have made an installation of DB 10gr2 for RHEL 5 with xen and it's work, meanwhile OAS 10 didn't work!
Anyway,Try to search for certification matrix on Oracle site

Flash media interactive server with redhat enterprise linux ?

program in incompatiable. If so what are you doing to get the
server installed? Thanks for any help

i check the dependencies and noticed that there was one that
was not satisfyied " libasneu.so.1 as it was link to nothing. After
moving the file to the /usr/lib and running the ldd command on the

message
"no package installFMS available"- this happens when i try
using yum to install the program or

anyone else know of any other tricks to get this installed ?
Thanks again for everyone help on this issue.

I don't know what "set all ORACLE variables" means. Is there a manual page somewhere that explains this? I mean, there are a LOT of variables.
This XE installation works 99.99% of the time, involving hundreds of tables and a large variety of queries, functions, packages, triggers etc. Only this one transaction causes the error, so I'm not sure what additional ORACLE variables would need to be set or modified.
Also, what's the procedure for submitting an SR to Oracle? Do you have a link? I looked at the Oracle site and it seems to require the user to have a commercial support level before anything can be submitted.
Thanks.

9i & 9ias SuSe vs RedHat

Does the 9i and 9ias downloads work on RedHat 7.1? It says it is validated on SuSe, does this mean it only works on this flavor of Linux?

This is probably because Suse is smart and sent technicians on-site to oracle while 9i was in development. RedHat was caught as usual sitting on it's collective fat ass. As someone who's used both, (and purchased red hat 6.2 enterprise for an astounding sum) the redhat distribution designed for oracle was a farce. Suse appears to be much cleaner and much closer to the package requirement, I'm going to be installing and testing over the next few days so I'll let you know. And by the way, at 69$ for the Suse distibution what's the point of complaining about Red Hat ?

Not able to access the portal on the network - (RedHat Enterprise Linux 5).

Friends,
I have installed the portal(7.1) on a linux(RHEL 5) box.I am able to access the portal locally and everything looks fine.
However when I try accessing the portal on the network...I get "page cannot be displayed" as if the server is not listning on 8080.
when I do "GET http://rexportal.davita.corp:8080" I get ........
500 Can't connect to rexportal.davita.corp:8080 (connect: No route to host)
what does this mean?
other info:
1) I have disbaled the firewall by setting SELinux to disabled.
2)I am able to traceroute to the m/c
3) can ftp and SSH
4) When I do "GET http://rexportal.davita.corp" I see a apache server page.It means apache server is accessible at port 80 on the network.
Can you plz help me resolve this issue.what can prevent my server not being accesible across the network
Thanks!!
Deepak.

I was able to resolve this.! basically It was a firewall issue.
To help othere here is what I found.
I had disabled the SELinux utility which should have basically disabled the firewall service but It didnt stop it.
You can check If the firewall is running with following command on redhat linux.
service iptables status
If it is enabled ,you can either stop it by
/etc/init.d/iptables stop (not recommended -- for security)
or
you can add a entry for the port you want to enable by modifying the file
/etc/sysconfig/iptables
Hope it might be helpful !
Thanks,
Deepak.

Sound in PDFs not playing - suse - latest Reader for linux (7.0.9?)

I have a pdf that has sound files incorporated into it somehow and I can't get them to play. I am using the latest available adobe reader for linux and I have suse linux, I forget what version but not too old. When I click on the link for the sound, absolutely nothing happens. I know it does work because it works at work on Vista. I am not sure whether there are actual sound files in there or if they are links to files on the internet. I suspect maybe they are links because it also will not work in windows XP with Reader 8 on a computer not connected to the internet. However, I have been able to find no information on this, so I don't have a clue.
Is sound in pdfs a Reader 8 only feature? Does it just not work in Linux? Is there any way to be able to listen to those audio clips?

So you mean there is a release coming out that will solve my problem? Does anyone know when?
(The only thing I've found is stuff written in December last year saying they will release Reader 8 for linux/Unix soon. Soon has been and gone since then ;) )
