24.After some time:
When the gray
window with the
message that
tells you to run
root.sh pops up
we have to do a
few things in the
two terminals
before we can
continue with
the Oracle Installer.
Shell #1 (root):
25.Run the script as the Oracle Installer says:
$ORACLE_HOME/root.sh
Wait until it is finished, which may take several minutes.
Oracle Universal Installer:
26.Close the gray message window by pressing OK.
27.The Oracle Installer will now configure Net8, create a demo database, and start the Apache
webserver that comes with Oracle.
At this point Oracle is fully installed and if any of these tools fail it does not really matter. You
can always call them on the command line manually (netmgr to create or edit a Net8
configuration (for experts), netca to create a Net8 configuration using a wizard (easier), dbca to
create a database).
Net8 Configuration Assistant (netca)
Configure Net8. Usually, in a Typical Installation (vs. Custom), the installer will start the netca
tool to do a Typical Configuration and it will just do that, no window is displayed. The connect
string to use to connect to the database through Net8 will be the name of the database selected at
the beginning − not the SID, the name! − plus the machines DNS domainname).
Example for db−name=mydb and domain=us.oracle.com: connect to the database using
