Step by Step installing Oracle 11g R2 on OEL 5.5 TNS-04612: Null RHS for while creating a database using dbca

Step by Step installing Oracle 11g R2 on Oracle Solaris 10

Posted by Kamran Agayev A. on March 27th, 2011 In this step by step tutorial Im going to show you the steps of installing Oracle 11gR2 on Oracle Solaris 10. For this, download Oracle 11gR2 and Oracle Solaris 10, create virtual machine and install Oracle Solaris 10 using my following step by step tutorial:

http://kamranagayev.wordpress.com/2010/11/03/step-by-step-installing-oracle10gr2-on-oraclesolaris/ After installing the Solaris, login with root user. As a first step lets install VMware tools. For this, disconnect the installation dvd and select Install VMware tools from the VM menu

After some seconds a new window will appear.

Get its address, copy the file from to the /tmp directory using a terminal window, unzip and install it

Get into the unzipped folder and run the installation file. 1cd vmware-tools-distrib 2./vmware-install.pl After the installation completes, logout from the root user and login again Now, lets check the installed OS packages that are required for the Oracle installation. For this, run the following command: 1SUNWi1of SUNWi1cs SUNWi15cs SUNWxwfnt
pkginfo -i SUNWarc SUNWbtool SUNWhea SUNWlibC SUNWlibms SUNWsprot SUNWtoo

You should miss two packages 1) SUNWi1cs 2) SUNWi15cs

To install them, mount the Solaris installation dvd and run the following command: 1pkgadd -d /cdrom/sol_10_910_x86/Solaris_10/Product SUNWi1cs SUNWi15cs If the mount point of the cdrom is different in your environment, specify the correct path to the dvd

After installation completed perform the following steps: 1) Create necessary groups and a user 1groupadd oinstall 2groupadd dba 3useradd -g oinstall -G dba -d /export/home/oracle -s /usr/bin/bash oracle 4passwd oracle 2) Create necessary folder for the installation 1mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0.2/db_1 2mkdir -p /export/home/oracle/tmp 1chown -R oracle:oinstall /export/home/oracle 3) Change kernel parameters 1 projadd -U oracle -K "project.max-shm-memory=(priv,4g,deny)" oracle 2projmod -sK "project.max-sem-nsems=(priv,256,deny)" oracle 3projmod -sK "project.max-sem-ids=(priv,100,deny)" oracle 4projmod -sK "project.max-shm-ids=(priv,100,deny)" oracle 5echo "set maxuprc=16384" >> /etc/system "set max_nprocs=30000" >> /etc/system 6echo echo "set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295" >> /etc/system 7

Now reboot the machine and login with an oracle user. Lets create a new swap file with 1Gb size, as its required for the Oracle installation 1mkfile 2048m /export/home/oracle/orcl_swap 2swap -a /export/home/oracle/orcl_swap

Now change the .profile file of the oracle user and set necessary environment variables: gedit /export/home/oracle/.profile
ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle/ 1export export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/db_1 2export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH

3export TMP=/export/home/oracle/tmp 4export TMPDIR=/export/home/oracle/tmp export DISPLAY=:0.0 5 6

Now create an installation direcotry under /export/home/oracle

Then mout the cdrom device and copy the installation files to that directory

Extract both files uzing unzip utility, and start the installation 1unzip your_file1.zip 2 3unzip your_file2.zip

4 5cd database 6 7./runInstaller

Uncheck the checkbox and click next. If you cant see the Next button, use Alt+N combination

Select the first option and click next

Click Next

Defint the folder for Oracle installation, database name and passwords and click next

Click Next

Click Finish to start the installation.

After the installation of the software finishes, installer automatically runs the DBCA to create the database

After a while, installation finishes.

Click OK and youll be prompted to run orainstRoot.sh and root.sh

Switch to the previous Terminal, create new window, login with a root user and run both shell scripts

At last, youll get success message

Now lets connect to the database from Sql*Plus

Dear Stan, you got the error because youve unzipped both files to seperate directory. Unzip them to the same directory and try the installation

During the installation of Solaris 10, what should be the proper disk layout requirements for a successful Oracle 11g installation. I have always selected auto-layout, but I get the following error message INS-32021: Insufficient disk space on this volume for the selected Oracle home. For a lab environment, assuming I am allocating 20g for the Disk space of my Solaris machine, you give me pointers on how I should layout my disk space. 13. Long Says:

Hi Kamran, I am getting an error while running the Installer. Pl check this

bash-3.00$ ./runInstaller /export/home/oracle/Installation/database/install/.oui: syntax error at line 1: `| unexpected I have been looking at the Solaris OS and DB 11gr2 compatibility. The solaris OS that I have used (and being used in this post) is sol-10-u9-ga-x86-dvd a 32 bit OS. However, the 11gr2 DB packages i.e. solaris.x64_11gR2_database_1of2 and solaris.x64_11gR2_database_2of2 are compatible with x86-64. Is this what is creating a problem? Pl advice.

hi kamran, oracle 11g r2 installation check fails at 3 packages because of libaio-develop-0.3.106 unixODBC-2.211 unixODBC-devel 2.2.11 packages not installed. to overcome this we will install rpms from os cd.
