some rpms throwing error when installing oracle on rhel5
Hello to all ;
Today i have taken oracle 10g installation on RHEL5 with(JUNIORS). I faced warning message.
I asked UNIX team they suggest me to ignore following error. but i'm not satisfied.

If your unix team gave you an answer, and you won't listen to/believe them, why are you going to believe anyone else?? And you posted yourself, that it's a WARNING message, not an ERROR. Did you read it??? It says:
It's telling you that glibc version 2.5-12 is already installed, so it is skipping the glibc that is LESS THAN 2.5-12. Very plain. Since you're doing this "with juniors", you probably should teach them to try looking things up on Oracle's website: https://forums.oracle.com/forums/thr...readID=2348563
..and teach them (as you've been told before), to use yum to install packages, rather than rpm, so you won't get messages, missing dependencies, etc. AGAIN: you are using Oracle and Red Hat Enterprise...you are PAYING FOR SUPPORT FROM THEM BOTH...you should USE IT.
Thanks TBone. Every time you are giving valuable reply . It's very useful to us. Thanks Guru !
FYI : Installing oracle is n't my work. It's my own interest to teach to my juniors.(Oracle DBA and UNIX).
If installing Oracle isn't your work, and being a Unix/Linux admin isn't your work...why are you doing both, and attempting to train others on those tasks? Teachers should KNOW the subjects they're teaching.
Glad things have helped, but again you seem to be ignoring parts of it:
Both Red Hat and Oracle have knowledgebase systems, which you are paying for access to
You should be searching those knowledgebases before posting questions ANYWHERE
You should be trying to look things up on Google before posting
You should be contacting Red Hat support, since you're paying for it.
You should be contacting Oracle support, since you're paying for it.
You should be reading the man pages on the commands you're using
You should be following advice given to you, such as "don't use rpm, use yum", but you aren't.
If you really are teaching others, you are teaching them bad practices, and passing along incorrect information, neither of which is going to do them any favors later on.
OK TBone !
Teaching is n't my work ! but in my env some members believe (asking ) me to explain DBA related things ..
So, to recap:
You're not a DBA, and aren't an Oracle expert
You're not a unix/linux administrator
You're not an instructor
But you've somehow been asked to put 'lessons' together about two subjects you don't know very well, if at all?

I can't stop this things .. Just i have nearly 3 years exp with Oracle Industry.
Yes, you can stop it; you do so by saying "I'm not an Oracle or Linux expert". If they still ask you to do it, then your response to your boss should be "Fine, then I need you to get someone from the Oracle team and the unix team to meet with me, and get proper documentation put together so it's accurate".
Quote:
Please advice me what are the things should i focus deeply or (change) when taking unix/linux sessions?
I did advise you. Re-read the list I posted before, and the many comments that people have posted here. You are ignoring what people are telling you. AGAIN: do research on your own; look things up.
Quote:
Teaching unix sessions are for knowledge sharing only. (Not Compulsion by anyone) Please suggest us !!
So AGAIN: sharing bad knowledge/advice is worse than not knowing. If your people need unix training, then the unix team needs to be doing it, or VERY heavily involved. Same with Oracle training. Simple.
If you need classes, then look around in your area, find some, and take them. If you want someone to put together a comprehensive training plan for your company, then post it in the LQ Job Marketplace along with how much you're willing to pay.
I need you to get someone from the Oracle team and the unix team to meet with me,

No thanks Tbone!
Why is this such a difficult issue for you?? Working with/communicating with your co-workers should be trivial..the fact that you seem to think it's NOT, indicates some major issues, either with the way you work with your co-workers, or with your company. Either should be addressed.
Quote:
Why others asking and believing me ? - that's my dedication and hard work in my env .. That's it !
Yet you are lying to them, by letting them THINK that you have knowledge you don't.

No Thanks .. Not required from out of my comapny. We have TOP class trainers. then why i am taking training session ?
Again, you are not making much sense. If your company has "top class trainers", then why are YOU putting together training classes/materials??? You say you've got 3 years of Oracle experience...but don't have Oracle knowledge.
And now you say you're TAKING a training session? If you're TAKING it, that means you don't know it well enough to GIVE lessons, which is what you're asking.

Self interest and trying to become a next level
Next level of what? You say you're not a DBA, unix/linux administrator, or trainer. All of which you're asking about.
And you ARE STILL IGNORING/NOT ANSWERING THINGS GIVEN TO YOU
Both Red Hat and Oracle have knowledgebase systems, which you are paying for access to
You should be searching those knowledgebases before posting questions ANYWHERE
You should be trying to look things up on Google before posting
You should be contacting Red Hat support, since you're paying for it.
You should be contacting Oracle support, since you're paying for it.
You should be reading the man pages on the commands you're using
You should be following advice given to you, such as "don't use rpm, use yum", but you aren't.
Then why don't you acknowledge any of the points in the list I've posted twice so far in this thread (and those points have been made in OTHER threads too)?
Not acknowledging = ignoring
Quote:
Really it hurts me. I never said 'not a dba' (still i have a good name in oracle prod & Testing env)
My leads appreciated when seeing my activities in my env .. but one more "Nobody knows Everything"
Again, you are not making sense. It doesn't matter how great you are at whatever it is you do (you don't say), but you lack the knowledge to be training others in Oracle/Linux, based on what you posted. All that you're going to do is confuse whoever it is you train, since you're not working with the others in your company, not getting correct information, and not even trying to look things up on your own.
You seem to be missing that point, or ignoring it.

I don’t want depend too much on anyone ( but i', interacting with UNIX Team)
So then why aren't you using Red Hat or Oracle knowledgebases, and looking things up on your own, as opposed to coming here so others can do it for you?

Already i said i am trying to impress my leads to move next level. Next level of what? Trying to become a prod head in oracle env. but one day i will be achieved)
Impress them with knowledge and teamwork. TALK to your co-workers, because if you can't, you're useless at ANY company. Research and learn things on your own.
