Metalink has a guide on how to install Oracle manually...
I'll try to find the link for you.
Hello Jeff,
Inspight of my problems with the DBCA (Java Exceptions) and networking issues. Would it be wise to try to create a database manually ?
PT
PS: I tried to do that, and at some point I got a ORA-00205 error concerning missing control files. I was thinking of creating some kind of test database manually. Could I create my own control files ? and would a production database be feasible in such an environment ?
Hello,
A link to manually install and then uninstall Oracle 9i on Linux ?

If you can't get oracle to run, I think it is a waste of time to create db manually.
You might find it more helpful to find someone near you who has done several successful Oracle installs and have them walk you through installing Oracle.Quote:

If you have read the before you install guide for Oracle 9i, and prepared your environment correctly you would not be getting these errors.
If you try to run though this process manually you will likely encounter the same problems that you have been encountering already.
Hello Jeff,
I found the dump file of the relink all operation that I did on my .../bin directory. Basicallly, the file goes through all the oracle utilities and relinks them.
I did not find any error messages in that file.
1) Anything special I should be looking for ?
2) Maybe my problem is OS related ? any ideas ?

When running the 'relink all' command, I got this message:

cp: cannot stat '/DISCARD/' no such file or directory

When I typed the following commands:
1) cat host
(no such file or directory)
2) hostname
(Linux2005)
3) nslookup
(Note nslookup is deprecated and may be removed from future releases consider using the 'dig' or 'host' programs instead. Run nslookup with the '-sil[ent]' option to prevent this message from appearing.
