Hello,
I am trying to installl Oracle 9i Database (9.2.0.1.0) on Linux Redhat 8.0.
The installation process always fail when extracting and copying
the files. I get this error:

"Error writing file <filename>"

Repeating the installation more times, the error does not occurr
with the same file, it looks very random.
My computer configuration is:

Linux RedHat 8.0
Pentium III 866, 784 Mb Ram
23Gb free disk space in the partition where Oracle is destinated
1.6 Gb swap space.

Environment variables:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/lib:/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/local/lib
ORACLE_SID=test
ORACLE_BASE=/opt/oracle
JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1
ORACLE_TERM=xterm
ORA_NLS33=/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/ocommon/nls/admin/data
ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0
CLASSPATH=/usr/java/j2sdk1.4.1/jre:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/jlib:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/rdbms/jlib:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/network/jlib
PATH=/bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin/X11:/usr/X11R6/bin:/home/oracle/bin:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin:/home/oracle/bin:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin:/home/oracle/bin:/opt/oracle/product/9.2.0/bin

Could someone help me ?

Thanks in advance,

David

Hi

I pretty much got the same problem and config. A 1.1 Mhz 784 RAM 30GB destinated for Oracle 9iR2.

Is your problem something like "error reading file areasQueries and a couple of similar read errors???

Does anyone have a solution for this problem???

Hello,

I am contemplating installing Oracle 9i on Red Hat 8.0. Hope you have sorted out your problems. But I would be grateful to you if you can advise me

I have Red Hat 8.0 Personal Edition - I want to get the Oracle 9i database CD pack on Intel Linux - will it work?

We experienced the same error setting up a new Oracle instance for migration testing. With this new instance, we were trying to use the Concurrent I/O feature (cio) available with AIX 5.2. This would allow us to bypass the UNIX filesystem buffer cache (Direct IO) as well as allow many reader/writer processes against the same file (reducing file contention for large files).

We had mounted all JFS2 filesystems using cio, including the fileystem that contained the binaries for Oracle Universal Installer. This prevented the Installer from running successfully, although its error message left much to be desired. A note from IBM confirmed that binaries may not run correctly in cio-mounted filesystems.

Since cio is a relatively new addition to AIX, we didn't find much information on it and its compatibiity with Oracle on Metalink. We still hope to use cio for our database file systems.

The problem could be solved if you copy the whole folder's installation product in your local machine, you can prove with this, however if the problem couldn't be resolved you replace the folder "areasqueries" for other it might be other version (e.g 8i, you need to get this folder), I'll hope this work for you.
