Installing Oracle9204 on RedHat ES3

And this
http://www.puschitz.com/InstallingOracle9i.shtml#RunningOracleInstallationOnRHELAS3

ive got a file called 'j2sdk-1_3_1_15-linux-i586.bin'.

how do i install it?

just run it.
chmod +x j2sdk-1_3_1_15-linux-i586.bin
./j2sdk-1_3_1_15-linux-i586.bin

i get this error....

[root@localhost Disk1]# chmod +x j2sdk-1_3_1_15-linux-i586.bin
chmod: error while loading shared libraries: /etc/libcwait.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory


any clues?

chmod works on unix file systems.
If your 'Disk1' is fat chmod will not work.

Don't pay attention to chmod.
You can run this BIN just via shell.

sh  j2sdk-1_3_1_15-linux-i586.bin04:07

i will give it a try

thanks. i will let you know

Thanks! i got J2SDK installed.

if you check on http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/9i/Oracle9iInstallationOnRedHatAS3.php on the section:

¨Login as the oracle user and add the following lines at the end of the .bash_profile file:

# Oracle 9i
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/9.2.0.1.0; export ORA............¨

do you know where i can find the .bash_profile file?

when i do a search for it, it gives me access rites errors...?

.bash_profile file is in your home directory.
You need to modify it by root user or by oracle user.

For example, if your oracle user is ora then
file would be /home/ora/.bash_profile

If there is no then just file create one either by touch or by any editor.

thanks

i will try now
