 Hello there, Vitalis!
 
 I'm sorry you're having problems - I typically don't use the graphical
 tools to configure the database, so I hadn't caught this problem.  I
 got a workaround from this problem from someone else which might work -
 give it a shot and let me know how it works!
 
 (Sorry for the panic!  :-[ )

 Solution was to
 a) downlaod the Download Blackdown JRE 1.1.8 v3 from
 http://www.blackdown.org/java-linux/mirrors.html
  (Must be the JRE version...)
 b) Install under /usr/local
 c) Remove the $ORACLE_HOME/JRE link
 d) Create a symbolic link under $ORACLE_HOME called
 JRE to the /usr/local/jre118_v3 dir (e.g. ln -s
 /usr/local/jre118_v3 JRE)

 If this works for you, I will append this information to the document
 for others who want to try this out.  :)

  Hi,
  
  I followed the meaningful instructions from

  All worked well until the installer tried to launch netca. The netca GUI
  never appeared.
  Then OUI tried to launch dbca. A blank windows appeared, and a few
  second later the system rebooted.
  
  I uninstalled the whole thing and I tried again to no avail.

The Unable to read ... lines look suspiscious. Did they appear in a
normal install log file? The file permissions seem to be all right.

Since the Oracle engin is certainly installed correctly, I'd like to
launch dbca by myself. Here are the results:
