I'm getting confused with which posters have asked about which
versions of Oracle on which versions of Linux. There have been a few
lately.

All I can say is that my paper on installing onto RH9 goes from
initial installation through to complete setup of the management
server. And I use it myself every time I install Oracle onto Linux,
and if I make sure I follow every single step, and type everything
exactly right, then it "just works". I say that not because I think my
paper is brilliant, but only because I wrote it precisely because I
needed a step-by-step do-it-this-way paper for my own benefit.

Some people (maybe not you) appear to want the step-by-step
but-I-want-to-do-it-my-way approach.

If it used to work, and no longer does, what did you change? These
things don't just spontaneously combust!

HJR

Thanks HJR, I resolved the problem to start oms.
Just one thing I can't do, I am sure it would be easy for you.
In Oracle enterprise manager console, in the menu
configuration=>preferences=>tab preferred credentials, I select my
database and put the username and password as sysdba and click ok but when
I come back to this menu, nothing is registered.
I can't do anything in the column "credentials".
Something I didn't understand !
Nothing about that in your precious PDF file :-)

Thanks for help

For more information, when I click on help I can see these notice :
Credentials(check mark indicating you have already specified connection
information)
Then how to check ?

An another thing, when I restart Linux, can't start oms, I think it is
because OEMREP didn't start but how to start 2 instances ?

thanks

Frank... slow down.

For the umpteenth time, please read the *whole* of my paper again. It
explains ALL of what you've asked, and more. Step by step. It just requires
reading the damn thing, that's all. Look for words like 'oratab' and
'dbstart'.

As for your lack of stored preferred credentials, I think that's been
answered elsewhere. It's not going to happen on RH9.
