[nisha]

Hi ,I am getting an error during installation of 8174 SE db software on hpux(11.2)i was able to install the base realease 8170 successfully but during installation of patchset release it throws error.
/oracle/product/8.1.7.4se/lib/libwtc8.sl

thats not an error, whats the full error

[nisha]

Error in writing to file /oracle/product/8.1.7.4se/lib/libwtc8.sl,is it becoz i didn't set umask to 022, If I forgot to set the umask to umask022 before install, is there a way I can rectify that after the installation

I dont think so.

I would rather do the install again.

If you dont do that i think you will have a problem when the installer tries to link the binaries if i remember correctly.

I de-install the software from runInstaller but there were few directories existed in oracle home which i removed manually but there this file again when i am trying to remove is complaining

"rm: libwtc8.sl not removed. Text file busy", even i can't move it . i have other oracle versions too running on this box like 8174 EE nad 10gr2.

Hi

From which home are you trying to remove rm: libwtc8.sl

You said you already have a oracle 8174 running then why you are reinstalling it ?

Hi Nisha

Did you try doing

cd /oracle/product/8.1.7se
and then rm -rf lib/libwtc8.sl

some process has the file open which you are not able to delete.

either lsof is not in your path or its not installed

You can try downloading lsof for suse it must be available for download
