Installing SOA SUITE 11.1.1.5 in fedora linux


Installing SOA SUITE
Version: 11.1.1.5
Operating System: Red Hat Linux (Fedora 16)
Steps:
1.       Download the software from Oracle site, we will have to download two zip files .Unzip both the files to a same folder.


2.       After unzipping we can see five folders Disk1 to Disk5.
Now go to Disk1 and start the installer using following commands.

Command: cd Disk1
./runInstaller

If the installer is throwing access related issues then provide proper privileges to execute the installer and its files
Commands:  chmod –R 777 Disk*

The above command will provide read, write, and execute privileges to all the users and groups to access Disk1 to Disk5 folders and its files.



3.       Now the installer will require the jdk path 


Provide the path till jdk<version> only.


4.       Click Next to continue.


5.       Choose proper options as required.
If no updates required, select Skip Software Updates option
If updates required
 If the system is connected to internet then click Search My Oracle Support for Updates option and provide Oracle Support Username and password.
If the system is not connected to internet but already the update software is available, then click Search Local Directory for Updates option, Browse for the path.



Click Next to continue.
6.       Now the installer will do a prerequisite checks for the system requirements before installing SOA Suite.
Ø  The installer will check for the operating system version and the packages that are necessary for running the SOA Suite components.


Ø  We will get an error message in operating system check because the latest version of RedHat enterprise Linux is Redhat-5 and the SOA suite installer is created to installed till the latest version of 5. But Fedora has the version of 16.

Error: redhat release step 2 of 6 failed
Solution:
Perform the following commands as 'root'

echo "redhat release 5" > /etc/fake-release
ln -sfn /etc/fake-release /etc/redhat-release

# perform the installation
# and, after installation, restore the old link

ln -sfn /etc/fedora-release /etc/redhat-release


Ø  In Step 3 of 8 we will get another error for a missing package that is required by SOA suite installer.


Error: Checking for setarch-1.6-1: Not found. Failed <<<
Solution: Download the package setarch from the below link and install.

Open terminal and execute the following commands as root user.



Once downloaded, install the package.

For rpm packages we will normally use rpm –ivh. In this case we will get following error.
error in installing setarch :
rpm -ivh setarch-2.0-4.fc7.i386.rpm
warning: setarch-2.0-4.fc7.i386.rpm: Header V3 DSA/SHA1 Signature, key ID 4f2a6fd2: NOKEY
Preparing...                ########################################### [100%]
                        package setarch-2.0-4.fc7.i386 is already installed
                        file /usr/bin/i386 from install of setarch-2.0-4.fc7.i386 conflicts with file from package util-linux-2.20.1-2.2.fc16.i686

So we need to use the following command to install the package

rpm --force -ivh --nosignature --nodigest setarch-2.0-4.fc7.i386.rpm


We might need to install the following packages if error is issued for the following packages if the installer throws any error.
compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2.i386.rpm
compat-db-4.7.25-19.fc15.i686.rpm

rpm --force -ivh --nosignature –nodigest compat-libstdc++-296-2.96-132.7.2.i386.rpm

rpm --force -ivh --nosignature –nodigest compat-db-4.7.25-19.fc15.i686.rpm

7.       Once the prerequisites are satisfied the installer is ready to install the SOA suite.


Click Next to continue.

8.       Now provide the Middleware path where the packages / files needed to be installed.


Provide the Middleware Home path and Home Directory Name which will be created by installer.
9.       Now select the server under which your SOA suite needs to be installed.
As we are going to use Weblogic Server select Weblogic Server.


Click Next to continue.

10.   Now check the summary for all selected options. If satisfied click Install to continue else click Back to change .


If required save the response file.
11.   Once the installation is done, Click Next to finish.


12.   Once done Click Finish to exit from the installer wizard.
