Searching on Google I found similar error "cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied"

Does anyone know how to solve this problem?

Thanks.

run the installer as root.

Oracle recomends not to run installer as root.

fvillavi: Oracle recomends not to run installer as root.
... of course it does. Unfortunately, you are getting the following:
cannot restore segment prot after reloc: Permission denied
This just means you don't have permissions to perform this operation. Chances are root does. Or you could try to set yourself up with the exact permissions required as a normal user - this would be the most secure method, and meet with Oracle's approval.

You'll see that a large part of the instructions in the link provided by marist89 (post #3) involve getting permissions set up in just this fashion :)
