dbca & java.lang.NullPointerException errors

351091Jan 28 2003 — edited Feb 22 2003

Hi,

I am attempting to install Oracle 9.0.1 on a SUN LX50 running SUN Linux and am getting the following error after the Net8* Configuration Assistant portion of the install completes:

java.lang.NullPointerException
at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.NetworkUtils.
getOneLocalListenerProtocolAddress(Compiled Code)
at oracle.sysman.assistants.util.NetworkUtils.
.
.
.

at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.getHost(Compiled Code)
at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.execute(Compiled Code)
at oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca.main(Compiled Code)
Exception in thread "main"

This same error occurs if I attempt to run "dbca" from the command line. I can run "oemapp console" from the command line just fine. I have my ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_SID, LD_ASSUME_KERNEL and LD_LIBRARY_PATH variables set and I can login using "sqlplus". I am using java version 1.4.1. In addition, the Listener starts and stops with no problem. I'm also getting a "Thrown when the IP address of a host cannot be determined" error during the install. Could this error be realted to the java error? Any input will be a big help.

Thanks,
