Re: Install Oracle 9iAS on Suse 7.3

Hi all,

(1) unset LANG (i'm not sure if this is still neccessary - in 8.x a
java-exception was thrown when the LANG variable was not set correctly)
(2) ./runInstaller
(3) continue with the installation until you get a make-error: saying there
was an error making inst_proc.mk
(4) open a command prompt and edit the "genclntsh" script which is located
in "$ORACLE_HOME/bin". Change the line
LD_SELF_CONTAINING="-z defs"
to
LD_SELF_CONTAINING=
(5) start the script using "./genclntsh"
(6) click the retry button on the oraInstaller-messagebox

Linux rules ;-)

P.S.: If you are trying to reinstall oracle - make sure that you completly remove the unsuccessful installation or you will get some write errors when Oracle Installer tries to overwrite some write protected key files.
