Oracle really seems to have messed up considerably with the oraInventory directory. I've had several problems and from reading various threads it seems that I'm far from the only one.

Well, after losing an support analyst, we finally got the java stuff to work with 9iR2...the problem was the inventory_loc=/opt/oracle entry in /var/opt/oracle/oraInst.loc. it should have been inventory_loc=/opt/oracle/oraInventory The installer did not complain that it could not create an "oraInventory" directory under /opt/oracle! The solution was to delete the oraInst.loc file and re-install oracle. Kevin -----Original Message----- Sent: Wednesday, May 22, 2002 9:23 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hello! I am having a little difficulty with the 9iR2 install on a SUN Sparc (Solaris 8) box. The installer completes normally, but when I try to run anything java (e.g. dbca) I get the following message Could not locate Java runtime It looks to me that Oracle's provided jre did not get installed properly Any suggestions on what I can do to correct this error?
