    you should go to installation Doc first. however you may try this:

    add below to /home/username/.bash_profile


    export DISPLAY=localhost:0
    export ORACLE_HOME=/oracle
    export LD_ASSUME_KERNEl=2.2.5
    export PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin



    to check either your display setting is correct or not try to type 'xclock' at your command prompt

    Hi

    Do hostname on the linux prompt in a terminal session.
    It will show the hostname.
    Use the value of hostname in the following command.

    DISPLAY=hostname:0
    export DISPLAY

    If you have a network card installed
    DISPLAY=127.0.0.1:0
    export DISPLAY
    will work also.

    Sometimes your java session will crash with something like SIGSEV.

    You then have to unset certain variables.

    hi, i have managed to install the oracle db. i typed the following to solve the display problem

    1) display=hostname:0.0
    2) export display
    3) xhost +hotsname

    BUT, during installation, there is this error...
    "error in invoking target install of makefile" this error statement happens and shows up many times during the linking times.

    AND, after installation, i issued sqlplus, the following error occurs
    "sqlplus error while loading shared libraries, libclntsh.so.8.o

    i am running pentium 133 with 64mb ram, and oracle 8.1.7

    please help

    thanks

    Look like you managed to break back of Oracle binaries. I believe you require /usr/ucb in your path, make sure that it comes after /usr/bin and /usr/ccs/bin in the $PATH setting. Then try reinstalling it.

    for newbies: easy to follow oracle 8i for linux installation guide

    doc is a bit old (for 8.1.6) but still applicable for 8.1.7 and 9i

    these are the versions that i used
    1) oracle 8.1.6
    2) redhat 7.1
    3) glib 2.2.2.10

    are they sufficient?
