Oracle Apps R12.1 Installation on Linux

Oracle Apps R12.1 Installation on Linux

Create a Virtual Machine with 200 GB space and 10 GB Ram and 16 Gb Swap. I have used Virtual box for creating the machine.

I am using OEL 6.4 version.

Refer to the below link for installation of the Virtual box and OEL 6.4



Once the server is prepared we have to set up the rpm's and other pre-reqs.


1) I will install RPM's using oracle public repository.

cd /etc/yum.repos.d

Move all present repo files to backup directory.

mkdir bkp
mv *.repo bkp/

Download oracle public repository repo file.

wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol6.repo

Using a text editor, change the field ‘enabled=0’ to ‘enabled=1’ for the repositories corresponding to the machine’s operating system while also enabling the ‘addons’ channel. Here’s an example of a repo file’s entries:
[ol6_latest]

name=Oracle Linux $releasever Latest ($basearch)

baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/latest/$basearch/

gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol6

gpgcheck=1

enabled=1

[ol6_addons]

name=Oracle Linux $releasever Add ons ($basearch)

baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/addons/$basearch/

gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol6

gpgcheck=1

enabled=1

[ol6_UEK_latest]

name=Latest Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel for Oracle Linux $releasever ($basearch)

baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/UEK/latest/$basearch/

gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-ol6

gpgcheck=1

enabled=1

2) Install the RPMS now using below command.

yum update
yum install oracle-ebs-server-R12-preinstall.x86_64

Once the pre-reqs are installed. We can verify the users.


[himanshu@ebs122 stage]$ id oracle

uid=54321(oracle) gid=54321(oinstall) groups=54321(oinstall),54322(dba)

[himanshu@ebs122 stage]$ id applmgr

uid=54322(applmgr) gid=54321(oinstall) groups=54321(oinstall)

Add applmgr to dba group as well.


[himanshu@ebs122 stage]$ sudo usermod -aG dba applmgr

[himanshu@ebs122 stage]$ id applmgr

uid=54322(applmgr) gid=54321(oinstall) groups=54321(oinstall),54322(dba)



Also change password for oracle and applmgr user.

3) Verify swap size in 16GB or more 

free -m

4) Link to Motif library in Oracle Application Server 10.1.2

unlink /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6

ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6.1 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6

For http issue:

ln -s /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/libdb.so.2

5) Make sure hostname entry is present in the below file
192.168.56.11 ebs122.lab ebs122
6)Make the below changes in limits.conf.


/etc/security/limits.conf:
---------------
 * hard nofile 65536
 * soft nofile 4096
 * hard nproc 16384
 * soft nproc 2047
 * hard stack 16384
 * soft stack 10240

7) Create /etc/oraInst.loc file and put the below content in it.

inventory_loc=/u01/oracle/oraInventory 
inst_group=dba 

8) Login as root on server and make a directory. This directory will be used for database and application base.

mkdir /ebs121
chown oracle:dba /ebs121
chmod 777 /ebs121

9) Copy all the file downloaded from Oracle e-delivery for R12.1 on a directory and unzip them from root one by one. After unzipping you will see the structure.

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database

How to Validate TDE Wallet Password in Oracle Database Validating the Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) wallet password is crucial, especially when ensuring that the password is correct without using the OPEN or CLOSE commands in the database. This blog post explains a straightforward method to validate the TDE password using the mkstore utility. Steps to Validate TDE Wallet Password Follow these steps to validate the TDE wallet password: Step 1: Copy the Keystore/Wallet File Navigate to your existing TDE wallet directory. Copy only the ewallet.p12 file to a new directory. If a cwallet.sso file exists, do not copy it . The absence of cwallet.sso ensures that the wallet does not use auto-login, forcing the utility to prompt for the password. Step 2: Validate Using mkstore Use the mkstore utility to check the contents of the wallet file. The mkstore utility will prompt you for the TDE wallet password, allowing you to validate its correctness. Command Syntax To display the conten...
