Home -> Community -> Usenet -> c.d.o.server -> Installing 8.0.5 on Solaris 2.5: Impossible?
I know the docs say 2.5.1 or 2.6, but is there any reason that Oracle
8.0.5 shouldn't install on Solaris 2.5? I'm installing using default
values for everything, right out of the documentation.
The reason I'm asking is that I'm trying to install it on a SPARC 20 with 96MB RAM, 2GB swap, Solaris 2.5, and keep getting "ORA-27102: out of memory" in crdb<sid>.lst every time the installation gets to the part where it starts the server and creates the tables.
This is my /etc/system:
* shared memeory stuff for oracle
set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1 set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100 set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=10 set semsys:seminfo_semmns=200 set semsys:seminfo_semmni=70 set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=200
Everything's right out of the documentation. seminfo_semmsl was taken from the largest PROCESSES line in init<sid>.ora, just to be safe.
I would be happy to upgrade to 2.6, but this is my NIS+ server, and every time I mess with NIS+ I end up with 5 hours of hair-pulling mayhem. Unfortunately, it's the only system with resources for Oracle.
