<DIV>Hi All,</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I am facing some problems while trying to install oracle 9i on linux
enterprise WS 3. I need your kind cooperation for it. Please send me the list
of Pre-installation requirments and patches required before starting
installation and from where these packages can be downloaded. I will be very
thankful to you.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>One more thing I want to know that can I install Oracle 11i on Linux
Enterprise AS 4.</DIV>
<DIV>Thanks</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>What you need is the Quick Installation
Guide. It has all that information. You can find it on the Oracle
site and can download it for free.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I installed Oracle 10g on WS3 (and then WS 4)
without a problem. Is there a reason you want to install 9i as opposed to
10g? </FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Here is their link to the documentation: <A
href="http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database10g.html">http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/database10g.html</A></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>On that page, they do have links to Oracle Release
9i Release 9.0.1 documentation and Oracle 9i Release 2 (9.2)
documentation. The Quick Installation Guide for 10G actually has a list of
each rpm package (with version number) which is required for the Oracle
installation. I don't think the 9i documentation is set up that way but it
does have software required and pre-installation steps. All patches for
WS3 should be found on RedHat network. Actually, since Oracle 10g is
supported for Redhat AS3, I didn't have any problems whatsoever installing it on
WS3 and did not have to add any rpm packages (they were all there).</FONT></DIV>
