Hi Cathy > I've been wrestling with getting Oracle 10.2.0 running in a SuSE 9.1 > vserver, using the old tools (and 2.4 kernel). Is there some reason why you need to use SuSE 9.1 and a 2.4 kernel? I'm assuming it's a vanilla 2.4 kernel with the vserver patch applied or did you manage to combine the patch with SuSE's customized kernel source? I'm only asking because the SuSE Enterprise 8 kernels (that Oracle is certified for) had a number of 2.6 kernel features backported into them, hence why a vanilla 2.4 kernel with vserver patch *may* cause some issues. However that may not have anything to do with it! You can download SuSE Enteprise Linux (SLES) 9 and the 2nd Service Pack for free from Novell to "evaluate". But it doesn't expire so maybe "evaluate" isn't quite the correct term to apply (especially given that's 99.9% (or higher) open source software - but I digress!). Personally, I'd download SLES 9 SP 2, build a 2.6 vserver kernel and use SLES 9 SP 2 for your Oracle vserver guest system. > tnslsnr starts up and merrily consumes half of my cpu > (yikes!), however, > when I try to use sqlplus, I get an apparent hang with no > error message. > (Actually, maybe it isn't a hang, as it sits there for at least an > hour, nominally running, eating the other half of my CPU, but doing > nothing obvious.) > > I'm a Oracle newbie, so this may not be related to the vserver. > (Unfortunately I can't use postgres for this job.) > > So my questions are: > > 1- Has anyone done an oracle install with a similar (old style) config? > 2- If so, want to share any hints, and/or a tarball? > > TIA! > Cathy > _______________________________________________ > Vserver mailing list > [email protected] > http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver > _______________________________________________ Vserver mailing list [email protected] http://list.linux-vserver.org/mailman/listinfo/vserver
