    Oracle Applications (11.5.10.

    2) Installation on Enterprise
    Linux 4.5
    This article is intended as a brief guide to installing Oracle Applications (11.5.10.2) on Enterprise Linux
    4.5. The article is based on a server installation with a minimum of 2G swap, secure Linux disabled and
    the following package groups installed:
     X Window System
     GNOME Desktop Environment

     Editors

     Graphical Internet

     Server Configuration Tools

     Development Tools

     Administration Tools

     System Tools

    Alternative base installations may require additional packages to be loaded.


     Download Software
     Unpack Files

     Hosts File

     Set Kernel Parameters

     Setup

     Installation

     Post Installation

     Shutdown/Startup

     Rapid Installation Wizard Portal

    Download Software

    Download two additional packages from Metalink Patch 4198954.

    Make sure an appropriate Java JDK (1.3.1) is available on the system.

    Unpack Files

    First unzip the Oracle patch:


    unzip p4198954_21_LINUX.zip
    Next, create a staging area for the Oracle Applications software:
    mkdir /Stage11i
    cd /Stage11i
    # Start Here
    mkdir startCD

    # APPL_TOP
    mkdir oraApps

    # RDBMS
    mkdir oraDB

    # Tools
    mkdir oraiAS

    # Databases
    mkdir oraAppDB
    Copy the contents of all the DVDs into the appropriate directories.

    Hosts File

    The /etc/hosts file must contain a fully qualified name for the server:
    <IP-address> <fully-qualified-machine-name> <machine-name>

    Set Kernel Parameters

    Add the following lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:


    kernel.shmmax = 2147483648
    kernel.shmmni = 100
    kernel.shmall = 2097152
    # semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmni
    kernel.sem = 100 256 100 100
    fs.file-max = 327679
    kernel.hostname = testapps01.localdomain #<--- full qualified hostname !!
    kernel.domainname = localdomain #<--- correct domain name !!
    Run the following command to change the current kernel parameters:
    /sbin/sysctl -p
    Add the following lines to the /etc/security/limits.conf file:
    oracle soft nofile 65536
    oracle hard nofile 65536
    oracle soft nproc 16384
    oracle hard nproc 16384

    Setup

    The following additional packages are required. Depending on the update/respin version of Enterprise
    Linux, the exact package versions and locations may vary.
    alsa-lib-devel-*
    audiofile-devel-*
    compat-db-*
    compat-gcc-32-3*
    compat-gcc-32-c++-3*
    compat-libcwait-2*
    compat-libgcc-296-2*
    compat-libstdc++-296-2*
    compat-oracle-rhel4-1*
    esound-0*
    esound-devel-0*
    fontconfig-devel-2*
    freetype-devel-2*
    gcc-3*
    gcc-c++-3*
    glib-1*
    glib-devel-1*
    gnome-libs-1*
    gnome-libs-devel-1*
    gtk+-devel-1*
    gtk2-devel-2*
    imlib-1*
    imlib-devel-1*
    jdk-1*
    libaio-0*
    libaio-devel-0*
    libjpeg-devel-*
    libtiff-devel-*
    libungif-devel-*
    libungif-progs-*
    make-3*
    openmotif21*
    ORBit-devel-*
    xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-6*
    xorg-x11-deprecated-libs-devel-6*
    xorg-x11-devel-*
    Due to all the package inter-dependencies, it probably makes sense to copy all these packages from the
    CDs to a single directory, then install then using the following command. For convenience, I wrapped all
    the necessary packages for an OEL 4.5 installation into a single tar file (11i-rh4-rpms.tar), making
    subsequent installations much simpler.
    rpm -Uvh *.rpm
    Install the packages associated with Patch 4198954:
    cd 4198954
    rpm -Uvh compat-oracle-rhel4-1*
    rpm -Uvh compat-libcwait-2*
    Create the new groups and users:
    groupadd oinstall
    groupadd dba
    groupadd oper
    groupadd apache

    useradd -g oinstall -G dba oracle


    passwd oracle

    useradd -g oinstall -G apache apache


    passwd apache
    Create the directories in which the Oracle software will be installed:
    mkdir -p /u01
    chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01
    Login as the oracle user and add the following line at the end of the .bash_profile file:
    # Oracle 9i
    LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19; export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
    Installation

    Log into the oracle user. If you are using X emulation then set the DISPLAY environmental variable:
    DISPLAY=<machine-name>:0.0; export DISPLAY
    Start the Rapid Install Wizard by issuing the following commands:
    cd /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/
    chmod u+x rapidwiz
    ./rapidwiz
    Follow any instructions and rerun as requested. The Rapid Installation Wizard installation is shown below.

    14. Note the location of the config files. It's worth taking a copy of this file as it comes in hady when
