what is .bash_profile file?
ASKER
Install the Java development kit:
# Make the bin file executable
chmod u+x j2sdk-1_3_1_09-linux-i586.
# Run the bin file. Agree to the terms and conditions.
./j2sdk-1_3_1_09-linux-i58
# Install the RPM file.
rpm -ivh jdk-1.3.1_09.i586.rpm
im sure ive got JDK installed... where do i check if it is installed and is it installed according to the above 8 lines?
# Make the bin file executable

sorry man, i think ive tried this about 100 times! all i need now is a knife
Don't use knife, boddy! Think 'bout parents :-)))
I think you need to install compat libraries 'cause the error is GLIBC.
Look at docs
# From Fedora Core 2
rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-7.3-2.96.
rpm -Uvh compat-libstdc++-devel-7.3
rpm -Uvh compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.126.i3
rpm -Uvh compat-gcc-c++-7.3-2.96.12
Second, you need to set some veriables at you .bash_profile file of the account you supposed to run Oracle.

What exactly did it ask?
ASKER

do you think it will be ok for me to install it logged in as another user?

No. You have to install database as a user who will start it.
ASKER
well hereś the error:
ERROR: you do not have sufficient provelages to write to the specified path. in Componant Database configuration assistant 9.2.0.1.0 installation cannot continue.

there are obviously access rights that the ´oracle´ user needs that i havent given.
i´ll accept your answer, thanks again dude. and open another for the permission errors.

Simply saying, you need to install compat-* libraries.
