Help Please:
[Quoted] Version: iAS902 on Redhat LINUX 7.3
Problem:
Seems to be a conflict in the settings required by ORACLE and LINUX.
Need help properly configuring the settings.
Description:
The docs for iAS and iDB require that DISPLAY be set to the name of the
Machine. For the example we will use the machine tahati.oracle.com
export DISPLAY=tahati.oracle.com:0.0
Redhat sets up the /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 tahati.oracle.com tahati localhost.localdomain localhost
This setting will cause problems with the Intelligent Agent And I assume other problems with iAS as well. The install notes for the agent (and iDB9.2) states that the /etc/hosts file must be changed to: 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost 148.87.9.74 tahati.oracle.com tahati
With /etc/hosts and DISPLAY set to the required ORACLE settings all X applications will not work because of xhost. Executing xhost +tahati allows [Quoted] it to work but now I have what can only be described as inconsistent behavior.
Is it correct to set DISPLAY=localhost for iAS startup (after install is
complete)?
Does any part of the system like forms, reports or em, use the DISPLAY env
var while running?
