    Hi,


    I'm trying to install Oracle 8i on Sun Solaris 7.

    The installation completes without any problem if I choose to create the database later. When I try to create a database manually/Database configuration assistant it leads to error.

    When tried with Database config. assistant error ORACLE NOT AVAILABLE is reported. When tried to create the same with script says
    ORA-27102 Out of memory.
    SVR4 Error 22: Invalid/argument

    Initially the thought it is due to insufficient SWAP SPACE and increased it. The system has 128MB RAM and 512MB SWAP SPACE which as per the installation guide is sufficient. I also tried to reduce the db_block_size and db_block_buffers to bare minimum.

    Looking forward for all of your valuable suggestions to work around.

    Thanks in advance.
    Nanda.

    Did you run root.sh script after the installation? Seems you have Unix memory problems. Check on the metalink any issues with Solaris version 7.

    This is what I have on one of my machines inside the /etc/system file for oracle :

    * Begin Oracle requirements
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmax=4294967295
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmin=1
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmmni=100
    set shmsys:shminfo_shmseg=50
    set semsys:seminfo_semmns=2048
    set semsys:seminfo_semmni=512
    set semsys:seminfo_semmsl=1024
    set semsys:seminfo_semopm=100
    set semsys:seminfo_semvmx=32767
    set shmsys:share_page_table=1
    * End Oracle requirements


    Please also note that if the value for java_pool_size is less than 1MB your instance
    would not start (8.1.5 bug).
