Oracle Applications (11.5.9) Installation on Enterprise Linux4.5
This article is intended as a brief guide to installing Oracle Applications (11.5.9) on Enterprise Linux 4.5.The article is based on a server installation with a minimum of 2G swap, secure Linux disabled and the
following package groups installed:
• X Window System• GNOME Desktop Environment• Editors• Graphical Internet• Server Configuration Tools• Development Tools• Administration Tools• System Tools
Alternative base installations may require additional packages to be loaded.
• Download Software• Unpack Files• Hosts File• Set Kernel Parameters• Setup• Installation• Post Installation• Shutdown/Startup• Rapid Installation Wizard Portal
Download Software
Download two additional packages from Metalink Patch 4198954 .
Make sure an appropriate Java JDK (1.3.1) is available on the system.
Unpack Files
First unzip the Oracle patch:unzip p4198954_21_LINUX.zipNext, create a staging area for the Oracle Applications software:mkdir /Stage11icd /Stage11i

Hosts File
The /etc/hosts file must contain a fully qualified name for the server:<IP-address> <fully-qualified-machine-name> <machine-name>
Set Kernel Parameters
Add the following lines to the /etc/sysctl.conf file:kernel.shmmax = 2147483648kernel.shmmni = 100kernel.shmall = 2097152# semaphores: semmsl, semmns, semopm, semmnikernel.sem = 100 256 100 100fs.file-max = 327679kernel.hostname = testapps01.localdomain #<--- full qualified hostname !!

Setup
The following additional packages are required. Depending on the update/respin version of EnterpriseLinux, the exact package versions and locations may vary.alsa-lib-devel-*audiofile-devel-*compat-db-*compat-gcc-32-3*compat-gcc-32-c++-3*compat-libcwait-2*

For convenience, I wrapped allthe necessary packages for an OEL 4.5 installation into a single tar file (11i-rh4-rpms.tar), makingsubsequent installations much simpler.rpm -Uvh *.rpmInstall the packages associated with Patch 4198954 :

Installation
Log into the oracle user. If you are using X emulation then set the DISPLAY environmental variable:DISPLAY=<machine-name>:0.0; export DISPLAYStart the Rapid Install Wizard by issuing the following commands:cd /Stage11i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/chmod u+x rapidwiz./rapidwizFollow any instructions and rerun as requested.
