As usual, and oracle installation failed. I have never been able to get one to go on the first try? Doesn't Oracle corp test their installs before they ship. this is really pissing me off!

Why did I get this error?

ORAINST: Product installation finished on Fri Dec 09 22:47:34 EST 1994 - uid=200(oracle) gid=100(dba)

How do I fix this, and I also noticed that my .profile was not altered to add the needed environment variable to run oracle. Can someone please e-mail me a sample .profile to run v7.1.3.0.0?

Also, I run coraenv and I get an error. Shit, will an Oracle install ever work?
