ERROR: could not read any NLS message catalogue

[Robin Geary]

Hi,

Installing Oracle 10g patch's, have dumped the files to the tmp directory, chowned all to the Oracle user, chmod'd the executables but get the error above.

HPUX 11.11
Oracle 10g

Robin,
from another source:
"When I start Oracle Universal Installer from any location, after setting the PATH environment variable, I get an error that reads "Could not read any NLS message catalogue!". What do I do?

Oracle Universal Installer needs some files in the directory where the runInstaller (UNIX) or setup.exe (Windows) is running. So, when you invoke runInstaller (UNIX) or setup.exe (Windows), you should invoke it from the directory where this command is present, or you must specify the complete path."

Thanks Peter,

I chown'd without the -R so all the files were not changed.

Fixed now.
