Chapter 35. Installing Oracle9i R2 (9.2.0.4.0) on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
In order to install an Oracle9i R2 database on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3, the "Oracle9iR2 Patch Set 3 9.2.0.4.0" patch set and a few other patches must be applied after the installation of Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1.0). Please note, there exists errors that can only be fixed by applying the 9.2.0.4 patch set.
35.1. Installing Oracle9i R2 (9.2.0.1.0) on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
Note
Throughout this chapter, the symbol # represents a terminal owned by the root user. You can use the root account by using the commands
su - root
or sudo
if you have permissions.
Install the following required RPMs (read Oracle Note:252217.1 for more information) for compatibility:
# rpm -ivh \ compat-db-4.0.14-5.i386.rpm \ compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.122.i386.rpm \ compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.122.i386.rpm \ compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.122.i386.rpm \ compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3-2.96.122.i386.rpm \ openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386.rpm \ setarch-1.3-1.i386.rpm \ tcl-8.3.5-92.i386.rpm
Relink
gcc
so that the older gcc
will be used during the Oracle installation (see Oracle Note:252217.1 for more information):
su - root # mv /usr/bin/gcc /usr/bin/gcc323 # ln -s /usr/bin/gcc296 /usr/bin/gcc # mv /usr/bin/g++ /usr/bin/g++323 # ln -s /usr/bin/g++296 /usr/bin/g++
Note
If you received an error stating g++ does not exist after executing the above commands, then gcc-c++ has not been installed.
When you execute
runInstaller
from the Oracle9i R2 (9.2.0) CD, you will get the following error message:
Error occurred during initialization of VM Unable to load native library: /tmp/OraInstall2003-10-25_03-14-57PM/jre/lib/i386/libjava.so: symbol __libc_wait, version GLIBC_2.0 not defined in file libc.so.6 with link time reference
To resolve the
__libc_wait
symbol issue, download the p3006854_9204 patch p3006854_9204_LINUX.zip
from http://metalink.oracle.com. See bug 3006854 for more information. To apply the patch, run:
# unzip p3006854_9204_LINUX.zip Archive: p3006854_9204_LINUX.zip creating: 3006854/ inflating: 3006854/rhel3_pre_install.sh inflating: 3006854/README.txt # cd 3006854 # sh rhel3_pre_install.sh Applying patch... Patch successfully applied #
Important
If you get the following error when you run
rhel3_pre_install.sh
:
rhel3_pre_install.sh: line 36: gcc: command not found
The error means you must install or link
gcc
correctly. This will mean you cannot start any binaries any more, for example:
# ls ls: error while loading shared libraries: /etc/libcwait.so: cannot open shared object
file: No such file or directory
# rm /etc/ld.so.preload rm: error while loading shared libraries: /etc/libcwait.so: cannot open shared object
To fix that, run the
echo
. echo is a built-in shell command and not a binary so it will still work.
# echo "" > /etc/ld.so.preload rm /etc/ld.so.preload
Now you can start the process over from the beginning of the chapter.
Now
runInstaller
can be started from the CD:
su - oracle $ echo $LD_ASSUME_KERNEL # it is important that this variable is set! 2.4.1 $ /mnt/cdrom/runInstaller
- Welcome Screen: Click
- Inventory Location: Click
- Unix Group Name: Use "oinstall"
Click Next When asked to run
/tmp/orainstRoot.sh
, run it before you click
- File Locations: Use the default values
- Available Products: Select "Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0"
- Installation Types: Select
Custom
since we only want to install the software for now
- Available Products: Click
or add some more components.
- Components Locations: Accept default values and click
- Privileged Operating System Groups: You can use the default values: OSDBA Group = dba, OSOPER Group = dba
- Oracle Managent Server Repository: You can use the default choice
- Create database: Select
No
since we first have to patch Oracle before a database can be created.
- Summary: Start the Install
- Configuration tools: The tools won't come up. Simply ignore it.
- At the end of the installation, exit
runInstaller
.
You may get the following errors while using the installer.
"Error in invoking target install of
makefile /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/lib/ins_oemagent.mk
."
The
/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0/install/make.log
file reads:

Click
.
This will be fixed after you apply the patch 3119415 after the 9.2.0.4 patchset has been applied. You can not apply the patch 3119415 at this time since the file
/u01/app/oracle/oraInventory/ContentsXML/comps.xml
does not exist yet. We will show you how to apply patch 3119415 later.

. This will be fixed when you apply the 9.2.0.4 patch set.
