Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: problem installing 9.2.0.4 on red hat 3
Hi,
If my memory serves me correct I've had this problem before and from
the debug output of
installer i realized it is looking for /oradata
because of bug 3547724
As mentioned in
http://www.metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=NOT&p_id=184821.1
Workaround is
# mkdir /u04/oradata
# chmod 777 /u04/oradata
# ln -s /u04/oradata /oradata
HTH,

...this pops up as soon as the installation begins. It gives me the option of stopping the installation of this component or the entire installation. When I skip the component, everything else seems to install fine. ....only dbca does not exist and i can't create a database (of course i could manually but i'd rather not go that route).
...if i then attempt to de-install the new 9i software the installer aborts and gives some none specific error that occurs outside of the vm.
i saw on the otn linux forum that someone ran into this same problem but there weren't any solutions given. has anyone here run into this?
thanks for any help.
