Hi Parag,

Few things to check -

1) Xwindow software is running on backend.

2) Display variable is set and You also have JAVA installed on server and its env variable is also set.

3) Check Xclock is also running.

Hi Parag,

expoer SAPINST_JRE_HOME=$JAVA_HOME

Here it should be

export SAPINST_JRE_HOME=/usr/java14_64

If possible share output of command echo $JAVA_HOME and echo $SAPINST_JRE_HOME.

Also kindly set environment variable SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=21213

After that retry the installation again.

Hi Parag,

Please follow steps as :

1.Restart complete system

2.On terminal you need to set env variable first:

a) export SAPINST_DIALOG_PORT=21213

and execute ./sapinst  as from above logs still showing port 21212.

Regards,

Gaurav

[former_member182657]

Also make sure SELINUX should be off or remove on your system.Try to disable if targeted and restart the system once.

Hi,

   execute the below steps. it will work fine. Also  check you have maintained server host entries.

a) check the oracle media extracted properly and having full permission.

b)  perform below steps.

1) su - ora<sid>

2)setenv DISPLAY <windows-ip>:0.0   // note 0.0 varies. you have to check the xmanager.place cursor on xmanager icon u wil get.  here windows ip nothing but the remote system ip .

3) xclock

u should get the xclock icon. if it is through. then execute

4)./RUNINSTALLER

it should work. Please attached screenshot if still issue persist.

Hi Parag,

Kindly follow SCN doc

first to resolve xclock display issue,after that re check for your mount points,if possible try to mount media on some other location with proper ownerships and permissions.

Also one think kindly confirm are you performing or executing the procedure by using VNC ?

Hope this will help you.
