Re: cannot open /dev/kmem
Don't know what Oracle is trying to execute, but only root should have access to /dev/kmem.

Re: cannot open /dev/kmem
Additional info:
Protect the memory files, /dev/mem and /dev/kmem, from casual access, since these files contain sensitive user information. For example, a program that watches memory for an invocation of the
login program might copy the password from login├в s buffers when a user types it in. The directory entries should look like:
crw-r----- 1 bin sys 3 0x000001 Jun 9 1996 /dev/kmem
crw-r----- 1 bin sys 3 0x000000 Jun 9 1996 /dev/mem

Re: cannot open /dev/kmem
-> set correct permissions for lanscan:
# chmod 2555 /usr/sbin/lanscan
# ll /usr/sbin/lanscan
-r-xr-sr-x 1 root sys 40960 Mar 2 1999 /usr/sbin/lanscan
I found some issues when permission for lanscan is not correct as mentioned above.
