Re: RedHat 6.1 Installation problem

To be honest, I don't know what your answer is. When I was creating my first database, it took a LOT of effort, and a lot of time with Oracle Support. My main recommendation would be to set several environment variables before starting the installation. I'm very certain that's what makes the install work. You should set:

ORACLE_HOME
ORACLE_SID
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/lib

This should cause your database creation to function correctly.
