(much like my high school years and getting a date). anyway, i have oracle8.1.7 linux tar file and have untarred it and tried to run the runInstaller straight. but ofcourse i got some errors. first it said that modify_ldt wasn't working and that i needed: option USER_LDT in my kernel. so, i added that. than i tried to run runInstaller again, and it just went in a loop about some kernel 9 error being trapped and i needed to ctl-alt-del to reboot. so, than i modified the oraparam.ini file to change the jre on it. i have linux-jdk1.2.2 installed on my machine. i remember that when i ran the installer, it said something about needing jdk1.1.8 or higher. so, i set the JRE_LOCATION=/usr/local/linux-jdk1.2.2 but i get a message saying that i don't have the /usr/local/linux-jdk1.2.2/bin/jre directory or file. so, i made a link in the bin directory to the jre director of the linux-jdk1.2.2 directory. but i don't have any actual jre command. anyway, the next time i ran it, i get the following error. Error in CreateOUIProcess(): 13 :Permission denied so, which jre environment do i need? and i do i actually install it? peter choe To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-database" in the body of the message
