Oracle 8i installation

I am trying to install Oracle 8i on HPUX 11. I keep getting the message:

An error occurred while executing command

Of course the logfile does not show what command or what error occurred. Has
anyone been successful at this installation? If I ignore the error, the links
fail with an IO error but I can do them from another window.

Re: Oracle 8i installation

At what point in the installation do you get this error?

Hi Dan,
The OUI has asked for the source and destination directories and has read in
all the dialogs. Checking the installation log file shows that it is in the
*** Choose Directory Page***

The complete log file is attached.
Thanks,

The solution was to create 400Mb of swap space. Now Oracle 8i installed and is
running.
