Problem with dbassist on Redhat 6.1. with O8.1.5.0.2

Hi

I tried to install Oracle 8.1.5. on my Redhat 6.1. After reading a lot in the newsgroups, I know that there are some error messages you can ignore... so I can tell that the installation was successfull although there were some errors...
I used jre116_v5. I chose not to create a database during the installation.

And applied the patches first. When i relinked all I was not sure whether it worked or not, because there was an error (I think it's not too important but I'm not sure). I saw just the following error: The output told me that /tmp/precompfiles could not be removed because the file or directory was not found.
Is that important, I mean, is it possible that he could not complete the relinking because of a missing file?

Anyway, when I try to create a new database with dbassist I got the error about the character set (JNLS-Exception) which seems to be "normal", but after that, there is a Java Exception and the program stops:

java.lang.NullPointerException

        at
CheckerClass_base.CheckforNcharSets(CheckerClass_base.java:995)

        at CheckerClass.initializeLanguage(CheckerClass.java:241)
        at CheckerClass.DetectAll(CheckerClass.java:73)
        at DBConfigInfo_base.<init>(DBConfigInfo_base.java:901)
        at DBConfigInfo.<init>(DBConfigInfo.java:44)
        at DBCreateWizard.<init>(DBCreateWizard.java:421)
        at DBCreateWizard.main(DBCreateWizard.java:1082)

Any ideas? I read in an article that someone had success with jre117_v3 instead of jre116_v5. So I downloaded it, too, but without success! dbassist always stops after this exception!

Here are my environment variables:

ORACLE_BASE=/opt/ora1/app/oracle
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/8.1.5
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/lib

NLS_LANG=US7ASCII
NLS_CHARACTERSET=WE8ISO8859PL
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET=US7ASCII
ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommom/nls/admin/data
CLASSPATH=/usr/local/bin/jre117_v3/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/product/jlib

PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/bin/jre117_v3/bin:$ORACLE_HOME/bin

Thanks for your help in advance!
