I faced the above error while installing, you need to install SDL-1.2.10-8.el5.* rpm package for your machine.You can get it from your OS DVD.

Hanging the process while installing Oracle Solaris 64bit on virtualbox

If you’re a beginner to install Oracle Solaris 64bit on Virtualbox, You may be get some hanging process while installing solaris at beginning stage like below

SunOS Release 5.10 Version Generic_14.... 64-bit

So They may be more confuse what I mistake, they may thought Everything I was selected Okay like

But Answer is simple .

You may select RAM memory size max 1GB RAM while configuration. But Oracle Solaris needs minimum 1536MB memory. then only you start the Oracle Solaris installation page…

csscan: error while loading shared libraries: libnnz10.so: cannot open shared object file

When i trying to execute csscan utility for Oracle 10g home ,I have faced the below errors

[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ csscan
csscan: error while loading shared libraries: libnnz10.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I try to fix this error

[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$  ldd `which sysresv`

        /lib64/ld-linux-x86-64.so.2 (0x0000003494400000)

Everything was okay.but I can see Oracle 11g home path was default on bash_profile environment. So in this case, I need to set oracle 10g home and library path.

[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ export ORACLE_HOME=/u02/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1
[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin
[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ export CLASSPATH=$ORACLE_HOME/JRE:$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib
[oracle@netbackuptest ~]$ csscan
