Re: oracle install problems
Try setting all of your environment variables first: I think the one that is giving you problems is the JAVA_HOME one Just do: export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk-1.4.1_02 (your path will not be exacly that but just have a look at where your java is installed ) Then try again. You will want to set that in your /etc/profile to always have that variable set too. Oracle requires quite a few of these to be set. Mark Quoting "Michael S.

Re: Oracle install problems?
I've had issues with their JRE. Unless they fixed it I don't recommend it. Below was my inspiration for Oracle installs with RedHat. http://staff.in2.hr/denis/oracle Yes, there are settings in the Oracle environment which must be set prior to installation including changes to the kernel per Oracle instructions. I wrote up a document with step by step instructions which I'd be happy to share should anyone still have problems installing Oracle.

I suspect the OP has some setup/config problem instead. There are instructions (in the RH7.1 release notes, among other places) of some special settings one MUST make in the environment before you can run the Oracle installer. For RH7.x or later, that is. If you don't set those the installer starts up and hangs, consuming 99% of the CPU for as long as you care to let it.

Unless Oracle fixed it I wouldn't recommend using their own JRE. When I started installing Oracle on Linux servers I had all sorts of problems. When I replaced their JRE most of the problems went away. > Every Oracle installation package I've seen (admittedly not a huge > number) contains its own JRE, doesn't expect or use any other pre- > installed Java.

Make sure you have Java 1.1.8 installed. It's rather picky about the version.
