Did you install the Oracle software using the RUNINSTALLER (in CAPITALS) script in the SAP subdirectory of the DVD? Did you install Oracle before you started sapinst (which is wrong)?

Hi,
thanks for the reply
we had done the instalaltion from the sapinst only,
but we have give the oracle path to /dev2/oracle/SID/102_64
Instead of the default path <root> /oracle/SID/102_64
and also we had set the path to the first one.. but from the SIDadm user its picking the path from the second one only.

Then you need to set the correct PATH in
.dbenv_<hostname>.csh and
.dbenv_<hostname>.sh
in the home directory of <sid>adm
Markus
So again the question: Did you start installing using sapinst? Or did you install Oracle before?
The correct way would be to start sapinst, enter all parameters and install until sapinst stops and requests you to install the database software. At that point those files are already created.

Sridhar,
Just to know, how did you search for these dbenv.sh profiles?
Log in as ora <SID> and execute ls -la command. These files will be hidden in the home directory.
Do the same for <SID>adm as well.
If you have successfully installed Oracle then you should see these .profiles under home directory of <sid>adm and ora<sid>
Thanks
Hi Sridhar,
Please post SAPinst Log , to get more details about the stopping point and problem.
Have you followed the Installation Steps mentioned in its concerned Installation Guide ?
Verify your steps as followed:
1. During SAPInst Run, When it ask to install Oracle Database, you would have to switch to ora<sid> user by issuing following command.
su - ora<dbsid>
2. set DISPLAY variable according to your shell environment.
DISPLAY=<host_name>:0.0
export DISPLAY
3. Start the OUI by entering one of the following:
cd /oracle/stage/102_64/database/SAP
./RUNINSTALLER
4.When the Install step has completed, Execute the file $ORACLE_HOME/root.sh with the user
root, and confirm the dialog box by choosing OK.
The step-by-step instalation of Oracle as per as the Installation Guide, will not give problems later on.
Also check the permissions of listner.ora file and try again.

Hi ,
Please check what value is set for ORACLE_HOME.You may need to change this value to /oracle/<SID>/<oracle verion like 920_64 > for root user.
Try this if work for you.
Thanks..

Hi,
Hav you installed Oracle DB, Seems to be during the patch installation you have not selected the oracle home, by default it takes other home directory. Seems to be issue will be there only...
Stop the installation, and apply the Oracle patch by selecting the Oracle home. This would resolve the issue.
