Checking operating system version: must be B.11.23. Actual B.11.31
Failed <<<<
Checking operating system requirements ...
Expected result: One of 11.23
Actual Result: 11.31
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: Oracle Database 10g is not certified on the current operating system.
Recommendation: Make sure you are installing the software on the correct platform.

Please help me us to solve this issue...!

Thanks in Advance

It is supported, but Oracle never seem to bother updating their install media...

./runInstaller -ignoreSysPreReqs

should work fine

Shalom,

You have your answer.

You will need a different version of Oracle or different OS.

_no_.

Oracle 10gR2 _is_ supported on 11.31 - the problem is the installer, not the product.

You can check this yourself using Oracle's certification matrices here:

Dear Forum dudes,
I had installed patch id PHKL_38080 as read in forums still not solving my version issue.
Any other patches needs to be installed or what?

Hmmm are you ignoring my advice?

./runInstaller -ignoreSysPreReqs

Will prevent the problem you are seeing... 10gR2 is supported on 11iv3, but Oracle never updated the installer to reflect this so you have to run with the -ignoreSysPreReqs option to tell Oracle to ignore the OS check (amongst other things)

This is all documented in the link I sent you... if we have to spell it out:

1. Click on this link:

http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/metalink/index.html

2. Click "View Certifications by Platform"

3. In the Selection Box Select "HP-UX Itanium" and click on "Submit"

4. In the Selection Box Select "Database/Server" and click on "Submit"

5. In the Selection Box Select "Oracle Database - Enterprise Edition" and click on "Submit"

6. Read the information on this screen... then select the 10gR2 64-bit check box and click on "Submit"

7. In the row for 11iv3 (11.31) click on the "Yes" link in the Addtl. Info column

8. And there you will find yourself at the screen which indicates the following information:

"To ignore the system pre-requisite test during installation use-ignoreSysPreReqs flag with runInstaller."

Hi Vairamuthu,

As above mentioned by Duncan you can install 10g R2 in hpux 11.31 by using

./runInstaller -ignoreSysPreReqs

I am not ignoring your advice Mr.Duncan.Issue is I am able to start the OUI by giving the ignore option but in next pre requisite step of Oracle universal installer agains the same error is coming.In addition to that it shows the patches which are required for 11.23 version while processing with the installer.
This step also i have to skip and continue the installation.Please suggest.For your refrence screenshot and warnings/failed checks are attached with this reply.
