Hello Jeff,

Concerning the following error, a few lines of (in the log error file):
Caught UnknownHostException: Linux2005

The metalink you mention, indicates, that you can simply press the 'continue' button and ignore that Pop-up message and continue with the installation, which is what I did.

1) COuld this be the source of my problems ?
(seems more related to the network server configuration, not necessarely Java libraries)

Two Oracle Configuration Tools that did not install where: The Agent Configuration Assistant and the Starting HTTP Server tools.
2) The Agent Configuration Assistant gave: No value for the NODEINFO + Starting HTTP Server gave a message : (Error resolving hostname: localhost).

3) Could all these problems be related ?

PT

PS: I performed a relink all command as suggested, and I still get the same problem with the DBCA.
