We've installed multiple times to a 10g RAC environment. We also have used both the InstantClient and full bloated one.
Make sure your TWO_TASK is set to the service name (sid) of the db, your ORACLE_HOME is set and if not at least TNS_ADMIN is. Here's a snip from my tnsnames.ora: <SERVICE> = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = vip1.domain.com)(PORT = 1521)) (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = vip2.domain.com)(PORT = 1521)) (LOAD_BALANCE = yes) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVER = DEDICATED) (SERVICE_NAME = <SERVICE>.domain.com) (FAILOVER_MODE = (TYPE = SELECT) (METHOD = BASIC) (RETRIES = 180) (DELAY = 5) ) ) ) -- Tony Worthington [EMAIL PROTECTED] 262-703-5911 Andrew Hicox <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: "Action Request System discussion list(ARSList)" <arslist@ARSLIST.ORG> 07/05/2007 12:59 PM Please respond to arslist@ARSLIST.ORG To arslist@ARSLIST.ORG cc Subject ARS7 install against oracle 10g RAC ** Everyone: I'm having a heckuva time installing ARS7 against an Oracle 10G Rapic Application Cluster (RAC). Solaris 10 is the operating system, and I'm using the 10G client library. I'm doing a non-root install with the ARS7 installer. I can connect to the oracle instance on the RAC with sqlplus from the remedy machine just fine, however the remedy installer REFUSES to connect to the oracle instance. We have $ORACLE_SID and $ORACLE_HOME set correctly and the tnsnames.ora file is correct as well. I've even tried specifying the SID in the system user name like '[EMAIL PROTECTED]' when the installer asks. I'm going out of my mind, here. Has anyone here ever tried this before? Any suggestions if so? thanks, -Andrew __20060125_______________________This posting was submitted with HTML in it___ CONFIDENTIALITY NOTICE: This is a transmission from Kohl's Department Stores, Inc. and may contain information which is confidential and proprietary.
