Hi all,

OS Solaris 8. Sun Sparc 20 - 256 MB 9.1 GB

I have installed Oracle 8.1.6 Rel 2 on the SUN Sparc. Everything is fine and a customised DB has been created. Now I have to install an Oracle application on the same server. I have a working knowledge of Unix but I don't know scripting.

I logged in as OPAPPS as required. (.chsrc). I have set the path with all possible directories and made it a member of group DBA as requested.

I put the CD in the CDROM and then cd /cdrom
# install.sh

BUT I get this message: install.sh not found or

install.sh: /cdrom/202103_1337//Disk1/install/: does not exist

------------------------------
install.sh exists on the CD. This is the contents of install.sh from the CD

#!/bin/sh
os=`uname | tr A-A a-z`
case "$os" in
sunos) platform=solaris
;;
hp-ux) platform=hp-ux
;;
osf1) platform=decunix
;;
esac

#The environment variable $SRCHOME cannot be set during installation
unset SRCHOME
unset SHLIB_PATH

CMDDIR=`dirname $0`

if [ "CMDDIR" = "." ]; then
CMDDIR=`pwd`;
fi

# Replace relatove path with fully qualified path
if [ ! "`echo $CMDDIR|grep '^/'`" ]; then
CMDDIR=`pwd`/$CMDDIR;
fi

if [ x${PATH} != x ] ; then
PATH=$PATH:/usr/bin: /bin
export PATH
else
PATH=/usr/bin:/bin
fi

cd $CMDDIR/$platform/Disk1/install/$platform
./runinstaller $*

solaris/disk1/install/solaris and the file

Would anybody know why I get

install.sh: /cdrom/202103_1337//Disk1/install/: does not exist


Thanks for your help.

Normally, if you are running a script in the same directory you have to enter . ./ (this is a security feature), so for your example try the following:

. ./install.sh

Good luck.
