A write lock cannot be obtained.Cause: Some process that holdslock on the /etc/oraInventory file. Until that software release lock OUI continues to display message OUI-10020. Solution: 1.Go to https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11857_01/em.111/e12255/e_oui_appendix.htm the oraInventory directory.$cd /etc/oraInventory2. See the contents of it. $ls /etc/oraInventory You will see the locks directory here.3.Go to the lock directory and delete the read lock under the directory. $cd locks$ rm/etc/oraInventory/locks/reader0.lock4.Now run Oracle Universal Installer again. It should work.

Thanks in advance Reply With Quote 10-01-07,05:08 #2 Littlefoot View Profile View Forum Posts Lost Boy Join Date Jan 2004 Location Croatia, Europe Posts 4,089 Provided Answers: 4 Did you start installation process and re-run it once again (without properly ending the first installation session)? I'd reboot the machine and start over. Also, you might need to clean your computer of previous - unsuccessful - installation. Perhaps emptying the directory might be enough. If not, clean the registry as well. Be careful if you start doing this, especially if there are working Oracle products installed on your computer. You might mess everything up!
