Hello,

First of all I have read the gentoo specific installation instructions in this forum and followed them to the letter!
However I still have trouble getting oracle 9.2 installed on my Linux machine. The database assistand failes to launch during post-installation. This is the debug output:

/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin/dbca: line 124: 12956 Segmentation fault $JRE_DIR/bin/jre -DORACLE_HOME=$OH -DJDBC_PROTOCOL=thin -mx64m -classpath $CLASSPATH oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca $ARGUMENTS

furthermore cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax reports 2147483648

The Target machine is a DUAL PII 450, 512 MByte RAM, 1024 MByte swap, running Gentoo 1.4 with Sun JDK 1.4.2 installed.

Can anyone tell me what to do, please?

Hello !!

A bit late, I know... But I found the solution.

I was having exactly the same problem with an Oracle 9.2.0.4 that I patched in 9.2.0.6 :

Code:

oracle@pivert oracle $ dbca
/opt/oracle/product/9.2/bin/dbca: line 124: 29175 Segmentation fault      $JRE_DIR/bin/jre -DORACLE_HOME=$OH -DJDBC_PROTOCOL=thin -mx64m -classpath $CLASSPATH oracle.sysman.assistants.dbca.Dbca $ARGUMENTS


    First, go to oracle home.

    Change the JRE symbolic link to point to your working jre instead of the oracle jre.
    (In my case, /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/)

    As root, go to the bin subfolder of the jre folder.
    (in my case, this is /opt/blackdown-jdk-1.4.2.01/jre/bin)

    Then create a symbolic link jre to java : ln -s java jre

    Be sure to be able to have the X access with you oracle user. (Test with xclock), if not, as the user you are logged in your X, execute : "xhost +local:"
