runInstaller won't start: 10g1, RHEL3, x86-64

14785Aug 2 2005 — edited Jan 26 2011
Hi, this is an attempt to install Ora 10g Release 1 on an out-of-the-box Red Hat Enterprise 3 system on an Opteron 64-bit processor. 10gR2 is not available for the x86-64 platform yet.
I have been through the prerequisites, set the system parameters, oracle account and environment etc.
And I get
[oracle@db Disk1]$ ./runInstaller
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, SuSE-8 or UnitedLinux-1.0
Passed
All installer requirements met.
Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2005-08-02_05-23-32PM.
Please wait ...Error in CreateOUIProcess(): 13: Permission denied
At this stage there is nothing in the install log file except the above text.

From reading some other threads I suspected a Java problem; and I recall earllier Oracle installs on earlier Red Hats needed to have a 3rd party JDK installed.

There's nothing I can find in the Oracle 10g docs about Java prerequisites. I was under the impression that the Oracle installation media included their own Java. Can anybody tell me what I am missing?

Thanks,
victor


o installed jdk 117_v1a-2 from rpmfind.net, and put /usr/local/jdk117_v1a/bin/ at the front of $PATH but that's not correct:
[oracle@db Disk1]$ java -version
java: relocation error: /usr/local/jdk117_v1a/lib/i686/green_threads/libjava.so: undefined symbol: dlsymbol_value
