I'm trying to do an install of 8.1.6 client tools onto a Linux
box...RedHat 7.1.
I have actually done this before, but, forgot to put on IMP an EXP.
I've set the following:
export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.2.5
/usr/i386-glibc21-linux/bin/i386-glibc21-linux-env.sh
I've got the jre 116_v5 installed....and a link at /usr/local/jre
pointing to it..and this is set up correctly in the oracle users
.bash_profile.
I've even tried it with the jre 1.1.8....but no luck.
I have xhost set, and have done everything I can think of that I've
read or done before to get this to work. However, when I do
./runInstaller I get:
bash: ./runInstaller: bad interpreter: Permission denied
I had a brain leak..and thought maybe the 9i client tools would work.
I CAN get thost cd's to runInstaller..I used it to uninstal what
client stuff I did have on the machine for 8i (just sqlplus)..and it
seemed to remove all just fine. I installed the 9i client tools..then
figured out the exp/imp for an 8i DB won't work...so, I uninstalled
all the 9i stuff.
The only thing I can think of that has changed on my box since I last
successfully installed 8i client tools from this cd...is I think I
installed Java 2...however, as the oracle user, I don't see anything
from this (java give no file found)....and it seems to see which ever
jre I want it to through the /usr/local/jre link.
I cannot find but one post on USENET for this error...and it appears
to be in Italian...so, cannot understand the problem or possible
resolution they discussed..and I cannot find any thing specific to
this message on metalink using the search.
I'm severly stuck...please help...I need to run these client tools,
especially the imp/exp against Oracle 8.1.6 instances.
Thank you,
