LINUX RH 4.0 64bit ECC 5.0/Oracle db install problem

[Former Member]

Hello all,

I have spent many hours trying to see if there is any logic in what I am experiencing. I hope someone else has can enlighten me. I am using the combination LINUX Redhat 4.0 64bit ECC 5.0 Oracle. On the Create database Phase, I keep getting the error:

ERROR 2005-12-22 15:04:12

CJS-00030 Assertion failed: Component OraDbBuild: Context parameter dbHome must be a valid ORACLE_HOME directory.

I initially had the Oracle home at /home/oracle/SID and thought that may be an issue since it did not reside in the root directory so I moved it to /oracle. I even went as far as giving root the environment variable ORACLE_HOME and started the install from scratch(deleted the install directory)but I still get the same error on the same phase. If anyone out there can share the same experience,it would be greatefully appreciated.

Thanks,

First you will have to reset your installation and delete installation log directory.

1º Be sure that on the root session you are using to launch sapinst for DBInstance there is no ORACLE_HOME environment variable set.

2º Check your oraInst.loc file (see note 350251), adapt it so that

inventory_loc=/oracle//oraInventory

and create directory if necessary. This avoid problems on unix with previous installations of oracle.

Hi guys,

Check this forum link:

You should find the answer, it looks like Oracle checks if the directory specified has any numbers in the end..

so makesure your oracle home directory is something like...

/oracle/<SID>/920_64 (this is how my server has oracle HOME)

Hi,

If you use Oracle release >= 8.1 (and I think you have if you use ECC 5.0), ORACLE_HOME have to point to /oracle/<sid>/<release>_<bits>.

Have a look at sap note 602843
