Re: Problem with installing Oracle8i in LInux

Sam,

There are know problems with Oracle 8i on Linux.

Try running the
cd /mnt/cdrom/install/linux
./runIns.sh rather than ./runInstaller.

There is a known bug with the Installer. I don't think jre version 1.1.8 is supported either, try 1.1.6 v5 .

I hope this helps.

Cheers,

Roger

I got this error when running /cdrom/runInstaller:

swun_at_swun /cdrom > ./runInstaller
Initializing Java Virtual Machine from /usr/local/jre/bin/jre. Please wait...
Error in CreateOUIProcess(): -1
: Bad address

Here is my path:

swun_at_swun /cdrom > echo $PATH
/sbin:/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:/u
sr/local/jre/bin:/usr/local/jdk1.1.8/bin:/opt/applix/:/home/swun/bin

Envoirnment variables:

path (/sbin /bin /usr/sbin /usr/bin /usr/games /usr/local/bin
/usr/X11R6/bin
/usr/local/jre/bin /usr/local/jdk1.1.8/bin /opt/applix/
/home/swun/bin)

I have install jre.1.1.8i for FreeBSD/Linux in the /usr/local directory, still can't get this problem pass... :(   

What should I do to fix this problem??

Thanks
Sam
