Linux Hang When Installing ORACLE 9i
I try to install ORACLE 9i on Red Hat Linux 7.2. Followed all the instructions carefully but still FAILED. In fact, the system hangs! Even the attempt to Telnet from another would result in the windows being hang (although I can ping the server from remote machine). Why is it? I am new on Linux, but I thought Linux is more stable.
I have tried many the installation many times, with all different kind of combinations (even re-installed Linux a couple of times), but it did not work, whether it be ORACLE 9i R1 or R2. Is there anyone who can help me on this? I need help badly! But I can not find any valuable information on this at all. My system Hardware: CPU: Athelon 1.1 GHz, Main Board: Spacewalker Shuttle AK12A Memory: 1 GB ( 2 x 512 MB PC-133). Swap Space: ( 2 GB ) Hard Disk: 60 GB ( with both Linux and Windows XP ) After rebooting the system I caught an error in the /var/log/messages file: <myserver> kernel: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 2546e644. printing eip: c0136646 ................. What is wrong? Is it because of Linux? or ORACLE? Or because compatibility issue between Red Hat 7.2 and ORACLE 9i? I wonder anybody had success story? This is very frustrating. Any one can help? :cry: |

I have successfully installed 9i on Red Hat 6.2 with hardware of 1 GHz Celeron, 128 MB RAM, 1 GB SWAP. At what stage of installation your system hangs? Best Wishes ash |
Thank you both for the tips, but up to now it still does not work.
The OS is RedHat Linux 7.2. Both failed on 9iR1 and 9iR2. The system hang at various stages when installing 9iR2. When installing ORACLE 9iR1, the syntom is a little different. The JAVA GUI wind is blown away somewhere after you answered all the questions and installation started. After that, any attempt to change directories (or similar simple operations) will result in xterm windows hang. And eventually the whole system hang. I happen to capture some error message in the /var/opt/log/message file. I am not sure whether this flags some hardware problems or what: Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 820f0b30 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: printing eip: Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: c01268fe Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: *pde = 00000000 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: Oops: 0000 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: CPU: 0 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: EIP: 0010:[__find_lock_page+30/208] Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: EIP: 0010:[<c01268fe>] Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: EFLAGS: 00010286 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: eax: cc948638 ebx: 820f0b28 ecx: 00000012 edx: 0000a5e4 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: esi: cc948638 edi: f7c52f24 ebp: 0000001a esp: f24c7ed4 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Jul 8 23:05:49 zeus kernel: Process jre (pid: 2464, stackpage=f24c7000) Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: Stack: 00000466 cc948580 f6451c00 c1fdba68 c1fdba68 cc948638 f7c52f24 43694830 Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: c01290b0 cc948638 0000001a f7c52f24 f24c7f34 00001000 00000000 00000000 Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: 0000001a 00000485 fffffff4 00000040 0001a000 00000000 cc948638 cc948580 Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: Call Trace: [generic_file_write+832/1600] [eepro100:__insmod_eepro100_O/lib/modules/2.4.7-10/kernel/d vers/net+-1324126/96] [sys_write+150/208] [do_IRQ+104/176] [do_IRQ+140/176] Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: Call Trace: [<c01290b0>] [<f880dba2>] [<c0134a56>] [<c0108428>] [<c010844c>] Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: [system_call+51/56] Jul 8 23:05:52 zeus kernel: [<c0106f2b>] Jul 8 23:05:53 zeus kernel: Jul 8 23:05:53 zeus kernel: Code: 39 43 08 75 f0 39 6b 0c 75 eb 8b 43 18 83 e0 40 74 10 b8 02 Jul 8 23:05:53 zeus kernel: <1>Unable to handle kernel paging request at virtual address 020ce1b4 Jul 8 23:05:54 zeus kernel: printing eip: Jul 8 23:05:54 zeus kernel: c012d5f9 Jul 8 23:05:54 zeus kernel: *pde = 00000000 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Oops: 0002 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: CPU: 0 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: EIP: 0010:[refill_inactive_scan+201/288] Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: EIP: 0010:[<c012d5f9>] Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: EFLAGS: 00010202 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: eax: 020ce1b4 ebx: c20ef3c8 ecx: 00000002 edx: c02b015c Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: esi: c20ef3e4 edi: 0000008c ebp: 0000014c esp: c213dfb4 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: ds: 0018 es: 0018 ss: 0018 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Process kswapd (pid: 5, stackpage=c213d000) Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Stack: c024d120 000000c0 00000000 0008e000 c012da28 00000000 00000006 00000000 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: c0105000 0008e000 00000000 00000018 00010f00 c2119fb8 c0105000 c0105716 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: 00000000 c012d970 c0259fc4 Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Call Trace: [kswapd+184/272] [_stext+0/48] [_stext+0/48] [kernel_thread+38/48] [kswapd+0/272] Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Call Trace: [<c012da28>] [<c0105000>] [<c0105000>] [<c0105716>] [<c012d970>] Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Jul 8 23:05:55 zeus kernel: Code: 89 10 a1 5c 01 2b c0 89 70 04 89 06 c7 46 04 5c 01 2b c0 89 I am so frustrated with my Linux experience.

Oracle 9.2.0.1.0
Oracle 9.2.0.1.0 installs easily under MS Windows XP
and Solaris. Although Oracle has gone (internally) to Linux, their install is barely possible. I don't think that Oracle thinks about what they send out. as far as software or documentation. |
