But From what i can make out there's obviously some issue with your temp directory. So change the /tmp folder. Here's how to do it. First, as root: Code (Text): mkdir /newtmp then change owner of newtemp to oracle Code (Text): chown oracle:oinstall /newtmp next Code (Text): chmod 777 /newtmp then as oracle: Code (Text): export TMP=/newtmp export TEMPDIR=/newtmp Now try and execute runinstaller and see what happens. tyro, Dec 28, 2008 #4 pradeep84 Active Member Messages: 17 Likes Received: 1 Trophy Points: 80 that did it!! i don't know how to thank u man! i don knw what went up with /tmp folder but this time runinstaller proceeded as expected! Thanks again! pradeep84, Dec 29, 2008 #5 (You must log in or sign up to reply here.) Show Ignored Content Your name or email address: Do
