oracle 9i installation problem

before installing oracle 9i on hp-ux 11.0 I run the script Installprep.sh; there are the following message:
1) ALERT- MAXDSIZ set at 3221225472 needs to be increased to at least 1073741824

but the actual size 3221225472 is greater than 1073741824, or I have to increase
3221225472 with 1073741824 ? (in the installation guide is 1073741824 the required size)

2) ALERT- Increase the ulimit(NOFILES) to 2048 from the present 200
ulimit -a:
time(seconds) unlimited
file(blocks) unlimited
data(kbytes) unlimited
stack(kbytes) 131072
memory(kbytes) unlimited
coredump(blocks) 4194303
what is ulimit(NOFILES) ?
How can I encrease it ?

3) ALERT- The PHSS_22868 may only be installed upon a previously installed base fileset. The
specification for this base fileset is "ACXX.ACXX-STDLIB,fr=C.03.27,v=HP".
This is C++ but I have seen
to see if there is c++ : swlist -l fileset|grep C++
# PHSS_14578 1.0 HP C++ core library components (A.12.10)
# PHSS_24627 1.0 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.33)
# PHSS_26945 1.0 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.37)
Is not recognised the c++ or is not the right version ?
where is the problem ?
Can I avoid to install this patch ,since users don't use pro c/c++ ?

4) ALERT- Neither PHKL_25475 or it's successor PHKL_27510 or it's successor PHKL_30553 are installed
The script don't recognize that there is the patch PHKL_33268 instead of PHKL_25475 .

5) ALERT- Neither PHSS_24301 or it's successor PHSS_26273 or it's successor PHSS_28433 are installed
it is a linker startup code / SLLIC ELF support;
The patch fileset "PHSS_28433.LANG-STARTUP,r=1.0" may only be installed upon a previously installed base fileset. The
specification for this base fileset is "Auxiliary-Opt.LANG-STARTUP,fr=B.11.00,v=HP".

6) ALERT: Test for listener shows it to be up, it should be down for an install - please verify

There is installed oracle 8.1.7 . I can use the same listener for both (oracle 8 and 9i) ?

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

hi;

1- it is not a MUST MAXDSIZ is 1073741824.you may set it more than this number.
2-look here for increasing ulimit
http://uw713doc.sco.com/en/man/html.1/ulimit.1.html
3-i think you should install recommended patches for C++
4-5 you can check superseded patch with attached script

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Hi there,
Did you install ALL patches on the Oracle list ?

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Hi Alexander,

I installed all required patch except for
PHSS_22868 and PHSS_24301 because I don't know which fileset is necessary.

It could compromise the installation or can I try ?
thanks

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Hi Mustafa

with swlist -l fileset |grep C++ I see that I have this verison of C++:
# PHSS_14578 1.0 HP C++ core library components (A.12.10)
# PHSS_24627 1.0 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.33)
# PHSS_26945 1.0 HP aC++ -AA runtime libraries (aCC A.03.37)

I don' see the language tools but only runtime.
when I try to install PHSS_22868 it fail :
may only be installed upon a previously installed base fileset. The specification for this base fileset is "ACXX.ACXX-STDLIB,fr=C.03.27,v=HP".

It is need toinstall another version of C++ ?
Users don' need C++ and I would like avoid to purchase this product.

Thanks to help me

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Dartan;
1-)while you are installing the patch;
At swinstall menu click the options>change options.there a warning screen like this "Please use caution when changing options..."
click ok.and tick "Reinstall filesets even if same revision exists","Reinstall files even if same one already there".
2-)there is NO need to install another version of C++.

good luck,

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Others have addressed the patches. (To be honest, I usually ignore that because most of the time I've found the recommended patches have been superseded anyway.) As for the listener, in my experience you can run an 8i database using a 9i listener and vice versa. The automatic service registration works fine going either way, as well as client connections. If neccessary, you could run both listeners using different ports, but I've never needed to do that.

The only problem I've seen -- and this is a pathological case -- is using an Oracle 7 client to connect to 9i listener on an 8i database that is configured to use multi-threaded server. It just didn't work, and I had to go back to the 8i listener.
Trust me, I know what I'm doing

Re: oracle 9i installation problem

Mustafa

I have tried to install the patch with the option
"Reinstall filesets even if same revision exists","Reinstall files even if same one already there" but it don't run, don't pass the analisys phase.
If is not possible i will try to install oracle without these two patch.

Thanks
