Hi Hassan,
In earlier threads I have said that my pre installation checks were ok but the post installation checks most my check were red only 3 were green and you ask me start the oracle services to find the long file which doesn't show 0 I have attached the text after run the command for starting oracle services. please advise how to go in to the log file and rectify the problem. Thank you

Most likely your opmn service is not starting. That is why services that are dependent on opmn are not starting as well.
We need to look into the log file for opmn to find out what is causing the issue:
/home/Oracle/PROD/inst/apps/PROD_linux/logs/appl/admin/log/adopmnctl.txt

Hi Hassan,

As per your advise I checked the log file I got the below message
Please check and advise I also wanted to know to view the log file the command I used is cat Is it right ?
[Oracle@linux log]$ ls

05/12/13-01:09:00 :: adopmnctl.sh: exiting with status 2

The problem most likely has to be with the IP address. Please verify if the last line in your /etc/hosts file is the following:

127.0.0.1 linux.server

You can login as root to view the hosts file.

su root
cat /etc/hosts

Also please verify when you issue hostname command you should see linux.server

Before we move forward we must verify the above two points.

As per your advise I checked the host file
the see the below
[Oracle@linux ~]$ su root

su: incorrect password

Please advise what I should do next

Thank you
Chandra

Hi Hassan,
I didn't receive any reply for the above Please advise

Please make the line following line the very last line in the hosts file.
127.0.0.1 linux.server linux
Let me know if the error is still there.

Hi Hassan

The host file is showing the same line as you advised
Please check above thread Please advise why I need to edit

Thank you
chandra

sorry I didn't understand your answer before
so you are asking me to edit the last line of the host file
::1 localhost localhost.localdomain localhost6 localhost6.localdomain6x
Is it the above line should I replace it with what you advised or just add at the end of the line.

how do I edit the host edit I used vim but I am not able to do any thing. Please advise

Open the file using "gedit" editor.
su root
<password>
vi /etc/hosts
Now go to the very end
Insert this line at the end:
127.0.0.1 linux.server linux
Save the work.

Please advise step by step procedure I don't understand your previous reply
I went root directory and typed "gedit" editor.
a big file came and at the end I inserted the line as advised. and after I did vi/etc/hosts I see something different that I duplicating please advise

Sorry my fault. In my instructions I entered "vi" instead of "gedit". vi and gedit are two different editors.

su root
<password>
gedit /etc/hosts
Control + S (to save the file).
Control + Q (to quite).
Here are gedit short cuts: https://wiki.gnome.org/Gedit/KeyboardShortcuts

As advised I edited the line but still I see the below error message I also viewed editor the line is added
please advise

Now the IP address issue should not be in the way. The hostname command should display: linux.server

The next common cause of this error is the missing Linux packages. You were suppose to install the two packages. Were both of them installed?

Please use this command to verify if the packages were installed:

rpm -q <package name>

Please let me know. Thanks.

Hi Hassan
As advised I used the command to verify whether the package is installed but I get the below error message
[Oracle@linux ~]$ rpm -q <openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[Oracle@linux ~]$ su root

bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[root@linux Oracle]# rpm -q <package>
bash: syntax error near unexpected token `newline'
[root@linux Oracle]#

from what directory I should use the command from the root directory or home directory.
the following are the two Linux packages I downloaded
openmotif 21-2.1.30-8.i386
unzip 5.50-7.i386.rpm

so I use the command
rpm -q <package name> but this is giving syntax error

please advise
thanks

Hi Hassan

I have not received any reply for above
please advise

Thank you

Sorry for the late reply.
You should not be putting the less than and greater than sign. They were there in my syntax to indicate that the text needs to be replaced.

See the usage of rpm command here: http://www.idevelopment.info/data/Unix/Linux/LINUX_RPMCommands.shtml

e.g.
rpm -q openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386

Hi Hassan

I verified whether the Linux packages are installed I got the following message
[Oracle@linux ~]$ rpm -q openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386
openmotif21-2.1.30-8.i386
[Oracle@linux ~]$
[Oracle@linux ~]$ rpm -q unzip 5.50-7.i386.rpm
unzip-6.0-1.el6.i686
unzip-5.50-7.i386
package 5.50-7.i386.rpm is not installed
[Oracle@linux ~]$ ^C
[Oracle@linux ~]$


I think one of the packages is not installed How do I install at this stage Do I do everything from the beginning ? please advise

Thank you

Hi Hassan

I didn't receive any reply from you Please advise


Thank you

Hi Hassan,

I appreciate your early reply for my earlier posts

Thank you very much
