ulimit Value Settings

Verify that the owner of the Oracle Application Server and Oracle Database server file systems have the following ‘ulimit’ values:

• time (seconds) = unlimited
• file (blocks) = unlimited
• data (kbytes) = unlimited
• stack (kbytes) = unlimited
• memory (kbytes) = unlimited
• coredump (blocks) = unlimited
• nofiles (descriptors) = 65536

Java requirements

JDK 6 (bundled with R12, no need to manually install)

Operating system utilities

• ar
• ld
• make
• X Display Server
• ldd
• gcc
• g++

Next step is to create required users.

groupadd dba

useradd -g dba oradev

useradd -g dba appldev

passwd oradev

New Password:

Re-enter new Password:

passwd: password successfully changed for oradev

passwd appldev

New Password:

Re-enter new Password:

passwd: password successfully changed for appldev

Now let’s create required directories as root.

mkdir /u01

mkdir /u01/oracle

mkdir /u01/oracle/ERPDEV

mkdir /u01/oracle/ERPDEV/db

mkdir /u01/oracle/ERPDEV/apps

chown oradev:dba /u01

chown oradev:dba /u01/oracle

chown oradev:dba /u01/oracle/ERPDEV

chown oradev:dba /u01/oracle/ERPDEV/db

chown appldev:dba /u01/oracle/ERPDEV/apps

Create Staging area or else you can directly install from DVDs but you may need to switch DVDs during the installation.

Here we have created Staging directory as /u01/R12stage/

There are multiple ways for creating staging areas. The simplest method is to copy all DVD contents to Staging directory in following subfolders.

startCD,  oraDB, oraAppDB, oraApps, oraAS,  NLS-<Language> (if installing NLS)

Or else you can use adautostg.pl to create a staging area automatically.

ORATraining Tip: Execute the following to avoid unexpected errors during the installation since we are doing multiuser installation.
chmod 777 /tmp

ORATraining tip: Sometimes it has been noticed on some Solaris based installation that installation will throw following error.

/u01/R12stage/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz: whoami: not found

Execute the following before starting the installation to avoid the issue.

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/ucb/

Starting the installation:

cd /u01/R12stage/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz

./rapidwiz

ORATraining tip: You can also execute directly with the path like “/u01/R12stage/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz/rapidwiz” to avoid selecting DVDs at the end of every component installation.

ORATraining Tip: Sometimes you may encounter following error after starting the installation.

/u01/R12stage/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz: /tmp/RapidInstall/bin/runWizard.sh: cannot execute

Execute the following to fix this if you encounter the same.

chmod 777 /u01/R12stage/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/bin

Welcome Screen:

Do not change anything in this screen unless you are upgrading existing Oracle Applications release. Express release will go with many default parameters and skip certain steps but not recommended for an Apps DBA.

Keep these blank if installing on test machine. This can always be filled later. You will need a valid CSI number and associated email id for this.

No not change anything in this screen unless you are restarting a failed installation or installing on secondary nodes in case of multinode installation.

Select a port pool here. All default ports will be added by a number selected in port pool and those ports will be assigned accordingly. For example with port pool 10, default ports will change as follows.

Web Server port will become 8010 (8000 + 10)

Forms port will become 9010 (9000 + 10)

Reports port will become 7010 (7000 + 10)

and so on..

It displays following error.

Internet explorer has closed this webpage to help protect your computer

A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage.

Solution:

Goto Internet Explorer -> Tools -> Internet Options -> Advanced -> Scroll down to Security -> Uncheck “Enable memory protection to help mitigate online attacks*”

Close all browser windows and restart the browser. The issue should have been fixed

This is the working fix for the issue.

Solution-1:

1) Take backup of jvm.dll located at c:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.21\bin\hotspot directory.
2) Copy jvm.dll from C:\Program Files\Java\jre1.6.0_07\bin\client (or whichever highest version of jre you have) to c:\Program Files\Oracle\JInitiator 1.3.1.21\bin\hotspot
3) Clear browser cache and also Oracle Jar cache (Remove all files from c:\documents and settings\<username>\Oralce Jar cache)
4) Close all the browsers and restart

Enjoy !! The issue should have been resolved now !

Solution-2:

In case if you are unable to find the jvm.dll in that location or if the above solution didn’t work for you, you can download the working jvm.dll from this link.
