This section describes issues with installation of Oracle Application Server. It includes the following topics:
After completing the installation, the install*.err
files in the oraInventory
/logs
directory may contain errors similar to following line and with java exception stack details:
lsnodes: cannot get local node number
This error is harmless and can be safely ignored. It does not affect any functionality.Similar errors may also happen when applying bug fixes using the OPatch utility. However, the patch succeeds and the error can be safely ignored.
The Oracle Application Server Installation Guide for hp HP-UX Itanium, and Linux Itanium states that the oraInst.loc
file is located in the /etc
directory on Linux Itanium systems. This is incorrect. The oraInst.loc
file is located in the /var/opt/oracle/
directory on Linux Itanium systems. This mistake occurs in the following sections of the Installation Guide:
"Section 2.5.1 - Create a Group for the Inventory Directory"
"Section 2.6 - Operating System User"
"Appending A.3 - Pre-Installation"
This section describes Management issues. It includes the following topic:
On HP-UX, the Distributed Configuration Management importArchive, cloning and recovery operation can be very slow if the archive file you are using is large. For example a 70 MB archive could take many hours to import.
To resolve this problem, download patch 4122657 from OracleMetaLink:
http://metalink.oracle.com
Refer to Readme file provided with the patch for full instructions describing how to resolve this issue.
In Section 19.2.2, "Enabling ARCHIVELOG Mode" of the Oracle Application Server 10g Administrator's Guide, in Step 1. of "To enable ARCHIVELOG mode:", the following command example:
alter system set log_archive_dest='xxx' scope=spfile;
should be:
alter system set log_archive_dest_n = "location=<your_desired_backup_directory>" scope=spfile;
where n
is a number between 1 and 10 and location
is your backup directory location.
