Install third party oracle apex related server components in RH linux

user5108636Dec 19 2017 — edited Dec 21 2017

Hi All,

      I want to install a third party tool related to the oracle APEX install. As per recommendations from forums, the install location should be /opt.

Now, the opt folder is owned by root

drwxr-xr-x.   6 root   root        100 Dec 20 09:42 opt

I need to install the server component inside opt as oracle and group oinstall. As there is no write permission in opt directory for oracle will the install inside opt fail.

For the installation, I just to run a script inside the opt folder.

Just trying to figure out where components should belong in linux file structure and what permissions/user group and owner decisions should be based on.

Please advise.
