1, Uncompress and unpack ed files

 

One step procedure (uses less disk space and is faster):
  zcat lnx_920_disk1.cpio.gz | cpio -idmv
  zcat lnx_920_disk2.cpio.gz | cpio -idmv
  zcat lnx_920_disk3.cpio.gz | cpio -idmv

Two step procedure:
  # Uncompress
  gunzlnx_920_disk1.cpio.gz lnx_920_disk2.cpio.gz lnx_920_disk3.cpio.gz  9i_Disk3.cpio.gz  
  # Unpack the downloaded files: 
  cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk1.cpio 
  cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk2.cpio 
  cpio -idmv < lnx_920_disk3.cpio

 

Now you should have 3 directories containing installation files:
Disk1
Disk2
Disk3

 

2, S space

In order to perfoa typical installation and to create a simple database, Oracle says that you need a minimum of 512MB of RAM for the (9.0.1) Server, and the amount of disk space (swap space) should be equal to twice the amount of RAM or at least 400 MB, whichever is greater.

Check your memory by executing:
grep MemTotal /proc/meminfo

Check swap space by executing:
cat /proc/swaps  or  swapon –s

You can also add temporary swap space by creating a temporary swap file instead of using a raw device. Here is the procedure:

As :
dd if=/dev/zero of=tmpswap bs=1k count=900000
chmod 600 tmpswap
mkswap tmpswap
swapon tmpswap

To disable the temporary swap space execute the following commands:

As root:
swapoff tmpswap
rm tmpswap

3, Shared Memory

I increased the shmmax setting for the kernel by executing the following command:

As root:
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
33554432
# echo `expr 1024 * 1024 * 1024` > /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax

 

It is recommended to increase the shmmax setting permanently for Oracle. So if you want to increase the maximum shared memory size permanently, add the following line to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:
kernel.shmmax=1073741824

4/tmp Space

The Oracle Universal Installer requires up to 400 MB of free space in the /tmp directory. If you do not have enough space in the /tmp directory,  you can temporarily create a tmp directory in another filesystem. Here is how you can do this:

As root:
mkdir //tmp
chown root.root //tmp
chmod 1777 //tmp
export TEMP=//tmp # used by Oracle
export TMPDIR=//tmp   # used by Linux programs like the linker "ld"
 
When you are done with your Oracle installation, shutdown Oracle and remove the temporary directory:
rmdir //tmp
unset TEMP
unset TMPDIR

5Oracle Disk Space

You will need about 2.5 GB for the database software. If you perform a typical database installation and not a customized database installation, then you will need about 3.5 GB of disk space.

6"binutils" Issue  (if you fond following error )

Q: "Error invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/pl/lib/ins_plsql.mk" 

A: This obviates the need to change binutils

download the following binutil RPM version and downgrade binutil on the Oracle server:
://ftp..com/pub/redhat/linux/7.0/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm">ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/7.0/en/os/i386/RedHat/RPMS/binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
As root:
rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
When you are done with the Oracle installation, you upgrade your binutil RPM back to the version you had before you downgraded:
E.g. on a Red Hat 7.2 server:
rpm -Uvh --force --nodeps binutils-2.11.90.0.8-9.i386.rpm

7Development Packages (RPMs)

You will need the following RPM development packages for the Oracle installer to compile the Oracle modules etc.:
gcc
cpp
glibc-devel
compat-libstdc++
kernel-headers (on RH 7.1, 7.2, 2.1AS)
glibc-kernheaders (on RH 7.3, 8.0)
binutils

Otherwise you'll get an error message like:
Error in invoking target ntcontab.o of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0work/lib/ins_net_client.mk

To find out if you have these development packages installed, execute the following command:
# rpm -q gcc cpp glibc-devel kernel-headers binutils

I succesully installed Oracle9iR2 without installing JDK on the system.Oracle comes now with its own . This means that you don't have to follow these steps which were required for older Oracle versions:

  Download JDK 1.3.1 or Blackdown 1.1.8_v3: (I usually used Blackdown)
 
 

  According to JDK documentation, install JDK under /usr/local .
  Then create a symbolic link to the JDK under /usr/local/java :

  As root:
   bzip2 -dc jdk118_v3-glibc-2.1.3.tar.bz2 | xf - -C /usr/local
   ln -s /usr/local/jdk118_v3 /usr/local/java

9Create Oracle User Accounts

As root:

groupadd a
groupadd oinstall
useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle
passwd oracle

Oinstall is not needed when the same people will be maintaining the software and the database.  In this situation, it will create more work and add an extra layer of complexity to the maintenance of the installation. 

Recommendation:  if you don't need the oinstall group for added security, 
just install using the dba group. 

10Create Oracle Directories

In this example, make sure that the /opt filesystem is large enough. If /opt is not on a separate filesystem, then make sure the root filesystem "/" has enough space.

As root:

mkdir /opt/oracle
mkdir /opt/oracle/product
mkdir /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
chown -R oracle.oinstall /opt/oracle

mkdir /var/opt/oracle
chown oracle.dba /var/opt/oracle
chmod 755 /var/opt/oracle

11Set Oracle Environments

Set the following Oracle environment variables before you start runInstaller.

As the oracle user execute the following commands: 

# Oracle Environment
export ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
export ORACLE_SID=test
export ORACLE_TERM=xterm
#export TNS_ADMIN= Set if sqlnet.ora, tnsnames.ora, etc. are not in $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN  #export NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.ZHS16GBK;(if you use Chinese)
export ORA_NLS33=$ORACLE_HOME/ocommon/nls/admin/data
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH

# Set search paths
export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin

# I successfully installed Oracle9iR2 WITHOUT setting the following CLASSPATH environment variable:
CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME//jlib
CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$ORACLE_HOME/network/jlib
export CLASSPATH

export TMPDIR=/tmp

You can put these environment settings at the end of the ~oracle/.bash_profile file if you use bash.

12Start runInstaller

Oracle no longer supports a character mode installer. Therefore, in order to execute runInstaller directly from a console of a machine you are logged into (in this example the node name where Oracle is running is called "oracleserver"), you need to set the DISPLAY environment variable.

From the console of your Oracle server "oracleserver " you are logged into, execute the following command as user " oracle ":
oracleserver:oracle$ export DISPLAY=yourlocalIP:0.0

13Running Oracle Installation

  This is how I answered the questions in the runInstaller:

What would you like as the base directory (Inventory Location):
/opt/oracle/oraInventory

Group Name (pession for updating Oracle software):
oinstall
You could also use "dba" which I do not recommend for security reasons.(refer to step 9)

Full path name for Oracle Home:
/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0

Oracle Home Name:
OUIHome

14You might get the following installation problems when you install Oracle 9i (9.2.0):

l  First check always the error logs in /tmp/OraInstall for 9.2.0, e.g /tmp/OraInstall2002-07-04_09-50-19PM, and in /tmp/OraInstall for 9.0.1. When you get make problems check also $ORACLE_HOME/install/make.log.

 

Q"Error in invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/ctx/lib/ins_ctx.mk"

AEdit $ORACLE_HOME/ctx/lib/env_ctx.mk and go to "INSO_LINK =", add a "$(LDLIBFLAG)dl" to the line and save it.

Here is the full line with the added "$(LDLIBFLAG)dl" flag:
INSO_LINK = -L$(CTXLIB) $(LDLIBFLAG)m $(LDLIBFLAG)dl $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_ca $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_fa $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_ex $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_da $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_ut $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_ch $(LDLIBFLAG)sc_fi $(LLIBCTXHX) $(LDLIBFLAG)c -Wl,-rpath,$(CTXHOME)lib $(CORELIBS) $(COMPEOBJS)

Q"Error invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/plsql/lib/ins_plsql.mk"
"Error invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/precomp/lib/ins-precomp.mk"
"Error invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/precomp/lib/ins-net-client"
"Error invoking target install of makefile /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/precomp/lib/ins-oemagent"

AEdit the file $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh and change the following line (people have sent me es pointing out that this also works for Mandrake 8.1 and Mandrake 8.2):
LD_SELF_CONTAINED="-z defs"
to read:
LD_SELF_CONTAINED=""

Then run the script $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh as the user "oracle" and not as the user "root". Also make sure you have all the Oracle environments set!

$ su - oracle
$ $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genclntsh
Created /opt/oracle/product/9.0.1/lib/libclntst9.a
$

QCan't find init file for Database "SID".

AI saw this error only in connection with Oracle 9i R2 (9.2.0) when It tried to start the database with dbstart.

I copied the init file for my SID "test" from /opt/oracle/admin/test/pfile to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs to get dbstart and dbshut working:
cp /opt/oracle/admin/test/pfile/inittest.ora.642002224936 $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/inittest.ora

Q"Error in setting permissions of file/directory /opt/oracle/jre/1.1.8/bin/i686/native_threads/.extract_args"

AWhile the error dialog is open, manually find and copy the .extract_args file from your installed jre to where runInstaller complains it is missing.

Q"jre was not found in /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/i586/green_threads/jre"

AYou are probably running runInstaller on a 586 machine, or your gets recognized as 586 (e.g. AMD K6-III-400). You can check your machine (hardware) type by executing uname -m .
To rectify this problem, create a link for lib and bin from i586 to i686 and make the i686 directories read only:
E.g.
ln -s /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/i686 /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/i586
ln -s /tmp/OraInstall/jre/lib/i686 /tmp/OraInstall/jre/lib/i586
chmod u-w /tmp/OraInstall/jre/bin/i686 /tmp/OraInstall/jre/lib/i686
Now restart runInstaller.

If you are not running on a 586 or AMD machine, try to link jre to java and see if this solves your problem.

l  Do not cd to /mnt/cdrom to run ./runInstaller!
If you do so, the installation will fail because you won't be able to change the CDs.

If you forgot to set the DISPLAY environment variable (e.g. export DISPLAY=oracleserver:0.0) , or if you forgot to give the remote console - your Oracle Server - authority to display X information on your desktop PC (e.g. xhost +oracleserver ), you will get the following error:
Xlib: connection to ":0.0" refused by server
Xlib: Client is not authorized to connect to Server
In this case, I always had to kill runInstaller which was still running in the background! If you don't do this, runInstaller will not completely come up any more and you will not see any error messages that runInstaller is having problems.
You might also want to clean up /tmp/OraInstall (9.0.1):
rm -rf /tmp/OraInstall

l  When runInstaller starts to configure the tools ("Configuration Tools"), the "Oracle Net Configuration Assistant" will sometimes hang. Simply stop the Assistant and restart it, or continue the installation. When the rest of the installation is finished, do a "Retry" for "Oracle Net Configuration Assistant". This always worked for me.

l  When the system stops to respond during the Oracle installation, in particular during the database creation, then it is probably because you don't have enough RAM or enough swap space. I noticed that the whole system will not respond (or "hang") for several minutes when I did not have enough swap space. If this happens, simply wait until the system starts to respond again.

l  The Oracle installation also runs make etc. In a production environment you might not have compilers and other development packages installed. Therefore make sure you have temporarily the following packages installed: gcc, cpp, egcs, egcs-c++, glibc-devel, kernel-headers. (I'm not sure though if all of these packages have to be on the system during the Oracle installation.)

l  If for any reason the Oracle installation didn't finish successfully, you might want to clean up the following files and directories before you restart over again:
rm -rf /etc/oraInst.loc /etc/oratab /tmp/OraInstall
/tmp/
$ORACLE_BASE/*

15Startup and Shutdown of Oracle 9i Database

  sqlplus:

svrmgrl is not supported any more. You can now do everything with sqlplus.

E.g., to startup the database, execute the following commands:
  dba$ sqlplus /nolog
  SQL> connect / as sysdba
  SQL> startup

The slash connects you to the schema owned by SYS.  So in this example we are saying that we want to connect to the schema owned by SYS with the privilege SYSDBA. SYSDBA gives you the following privileges:
 sysoper privileges WITH ADMIN OPTION
 create database
 recover database until

$ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart and $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut :

You can also use $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart to startup the database, and $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut to shutdown the database. You can place $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart into the /etc/rc.d/rc.local boot script to automatically bring up the database at system boot time. To get $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbstart and $ORACLE_HOME/bin/dbshut working, you need to change the third field for your Oracle SID in /etc/oratab from "N" to "Y".

E.g. for the Oracle SID "test" I changed the line in /etc/oratab from
test:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0:N
to read
test:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0:Y

For 9.2.0, I also had to copy the init file for my SID "test" from /opt/oracle/admin/test/pfile to $ORACLE_HOME/dbs to get dbstart and dbshut working:
cp /opt/oracle/admin/test/pfile/inittest.ora.642002224936 $ORACLE_HOME/dbs/inittest.ora
But first check if your init file already exists in $ORACLE_HOME/dbs.
