Hello there.

After installing an oracle on HP-UX 11.00 platform running in a 64B mode, starting svrmgrl to create a db i am getting a such error:

$ svrmgrl

Oracle Server Manager Release 3.1.7.0.0 - Production

Copyright (c) 1997, 1999, Oracle Corporation. All Rights Reserved.

sh: /oracle/bin/oracle: Execute permission denied.
sh: /oracle/bin/oracle: Execute permission denied.
ORA-12547: TNS:lost contact
SVRMGR>

Trying to start oracle by hands, i am getting:

$ /oracle/bin/oracle
/oracle/bin/oracle: Exec format error. Binary file not executable.

while

> file /oracle/bin/oracle
/oracle/bin/oracle: ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

and kernel is

> file /stand/vmunix
/stand/vmunix: ELF-64 executable object file - PA-RISC 2.0 (LP64)

What is wrong and witch steps i have to do to start an oracle?

Hi,

Did you relink Oracle by running root.sh at the end of the installation?

Hope this helps. Regards.

Hi,

This error normally comes after fresh install due to lot of reasons. A possible try as described in the Oracle metalink support:

Install HP-UX linker tools cumulative patch PHSS_22514 or later.

After you install this patch, all of the Oracle executables need to be relinked:

For Oracle8i:

1) Change to the "bin" directory:

% cd $ORACLE_HOME/bin

2) Use the "relink" utility with the "all" argument:

% relink all

3) Use the "relink" utility with the "utilities" argument:

% relink utilities

4) Change to the "sqlplus/lib" directory:

% cd $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/lib

5) Use the "make" command to relink "sqlplus":

% make -f ins_sqlplus.mk install

For Oracle8:

1) Change to the "rdbms/lib" directory:

% cd $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib

2) Use the "make" command to relink the RDBMS:

% make -f ins_rdbms.mk install

3) Change to the "sqlplus/lib" directory:

% cd $ORACLE_HOME/sqlplus/lib

4) Use the "make" command to relink sqlplus:

% make -f ins_sqlplus.mk install

5) Change to the "network/lib" directory:

% cd $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib

6) Use the "make" command to relink the Intelligent Agent:

% make -f ins_agent.mk install

7) Use the "make" command to relink Net8:

% make -f ins_network.mk install

HTH,
Shiju
