the stubs file has the compact libs in them. since oracle has built it db's on a older libs the stubs file is needed to be able to install it without much troubles. this is what i have experienced in the past, i dont know how it is to install it on centos or with 10g or higher since my computer does not have enough ram for that app to run. correct me if i am wrong.
thanks

Sorry for the delay.
I haven't tried it on RH9. When installing Oracle
on Linux (any flavour as
far as I know) it needs to compile all the
executables (oracle, listener and
sqlplus just to name a few). If you have all the
compat libs installed it
will run without any probs.
Hope this helps, Joao

i am wondering can you still use the stubs.gz file
that was created for 8i
and 9i on centos version. that fix made it
possible to install oracle on
rh9?

Hi folks,
I seem to remember someone asking how to install
Oracle Apps on Linux
so here goes a quick and dirty how-to:-
0 - You will need access to Metalink (Oracle's
support site) for
downloading patches and read documentation on
line.
1 - Size up your Linux box to at least 1Gb
memory and 200Gb of disk
space. I'm assuming you have a Pentium 4 at around
3GHz.
2 - Download and install if not already
installed
compat-gcc-7.3-2.96.126. Fedora Core 3 doesn't come with it but you can
get it from Fedora Core
WBEL and CentOS should have it installed by
default.
3 - Download the latest version of Oracle
Applications from
edelivery.oracle.com. Latest release available
is 11.5.10 and comes in
46 zip files totalling a 25Gb. It expands to
about the same size since
there's a lot of compressed files in it.
4 - Create a new group called dba. Create a new
user called oracle
and assign dba as the primary group.
5 - Log in as oracle and edit the .bash_profile
to add the variable
LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19. Make sure you export
it.
6 - Start unloading the zip files and make sure
you follow the
instructions from Oracle so that they end up in
a nice tree under
/Stage11i. Review the Installation guide.
7 - Rename the /usr/bin/unzip to whatever you
want to call it and
copy the unzip from
/Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/unzip/Linux.
8 - Change to /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz
and execute
RapidWizVersion. If it is not 11.5.10.33 you will need to
download patch 4132885 from
Metalink. Unzip the files under
/Stage11i/startCD as it will overwrite
the contents of Disk1.
9 - Download patch 3006854 from Metalink to fix
an OS library
problem.
10 - Start your installation by running /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz.
Choose single box
installation.
11 - Review the log file for any errors. Fix if
required.
12 - If you're using an SQL Client from outside
the Linux box you will
need to comment some lines in your
$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/SID_Servername/sqlnet.ora
file (replace SID with your chosen SID, mine is PROD, default is VIS)
and (replace Servername
with your hostname). Look for the lines with
tcp.validnode_checking
and tcp.invited_nodes; put a '#' in the
beginning.
Restart your listener.
13 - Open your browser and point it to http://yourservername.yourdomainname:8000. Log
in as
operations/welcome and start hacking away :-)
Let me know if you're stuck with anything and
I'll do what I can to
help.
Cheers, Joao
Note
Oracle Apps forms in a browser is currently only
supported on Netscape
4.7.xx and IE6 although it can be put to work
with Firefox.
