Oracle 9.2 install: java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 15

[linuxquestion]

I'm trying to install Oracle 9.2 on Linux kernel:
2.4.20-18.10.1

This is the upgraded kernel for Oracle RAC.

After I finish running: root.sh


It then goes to: Net configuration assistant:
and promptly Hangs forever. (a punishment perhaps???)



The errors in the details windows are:

Parsing command line arguments:
Parameter "orahome" = /oracle/oracle92/product/9.2.0
Parameter "instype" = typical
Parameter "inscomp" = client,oraclenet,javavm,server,ano
Parameter "insprtcl" = tcp,tcps
Parameter "cfg" = local
Parameter "authadp" = NO_VALUE
Parameter "nodeinfo" = /responseFile
java.lang.ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException: 15
at oracle.net.ca.CmdlineArgs.parseArgs(CmdlineArgs.java)
at oracle.net.ca.NetCA.<init>(NetCA.java)
at oracle.net.ca.NetCA.main(NetCA.java)


Does anyone have any ideas as to how to fix this?

I'm trying to install Oracle 9.2 on Linux kernel:
2.4.20-18.10.1

This is the upgraded kernel for Oracle RAC.

After I finish running: root.sh


It then goes to: Net configuration assistant:
and promptly Hangs forever. (a punishment perhaps???)

I trust that you're reading all the newsgroups you posted to?
I seem to recall that the configuration assistant is a GUI
app which utilizes X11R6/Motif. Before you became superuser,
did you give root permission to access your X server?
Try the following command:
$ xhost +local:root
(the "$ " is just the prompt, BTW)
I've run into this problem before and, depending upon the
wat the apps handles it, you could see a "hang".

Well, after a number of evenings of struggle, I finally got it
to work. About time. So, what did I do?

Uninstalled Oracle, and whacked everything from
the disks. rm -F -f /...

Set ulimit parameters in
/etc/security/limits.conf

# June 30, 2004. Added these parameters.

# - stack - max stack size (KB)
* soft stack 32768
* hard stack 32768

# - nofile - max number of open files
* soft nofile 65536
* hard nofile 65536

# - nproc - max number of processes
* soft nproc 16384
* hard nproc 16384

(Note: This by itself, did nothing.)

Set $CLASSPATH in the .bash_profile.
(it had been commmented out, according to some previous instructions
that I followed.)


CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib;
export CLASSPATH


When I installed, I did a custom, small database installation.
Not the EE, or standard database.

This way, I actually got the binary: lsnrctl
(in some struggles, I didn't even get that.)

Everything hung on Net Configuration Assistant once again.
Highlight it, and stop it.
Same for dbca.

The last two seemed to work.
Exit oui.


Then, create database "manually" with dbca.
Nice and small db. Nothing unnecessary or fancy.

Configure network, manually with:
netmgr
netca

But, I still needed to copy a listener.ora file from
another box and modify it. So, save any you might have.

I'm not sure what might happen if I try to install
EE, or standard edition. Surprises anyone?
Installation black holes perhaps?

Doesnt seem to be an issue with 10. I have it on 3.1with no install issues
took about 30 mins.

Where were the instructions for commenting out classpath, definitely not in
the 10 instructions.
