Please respond
to ORACLE-L
Hi All:
I am trying to install an upgrade to one of my HP servers and it's
making me crazy. The previous DBA used /opt/oracle/ as his
ORACLE_BASE. I have since moved everything to a more ofa-like
structure and changed all the pointers and stuff.
Now, though, when I run the 8.1.7 installer from the CD, it tells
me...
[oracle8 SD_CDROM]$
[oracle8 SD_CDROM]$ ./runInstaller
[oracle8 SD_CDROM]$ You do not have permission to write to the inventory
/opt/oracle/oraInventory. Installation cannot continue.: Permission denied
[oracle8 SD_CDROM]$
[oracle8 SD_CDROM]$
I have looked and looked for something pointing to /opt/oracle. I
cannot find a thing. I do not want to create a link there because
that will just perpetuate the problem. Does anyone know where the
installer looks for this stuff?
TIA,
Mike
