Before you install Oracle Portal, you must have an Oracle8i database and Oracle9i Application Server running, including the Oracle HTTP Server.
Oracle Portal is packaged and installed with the Oracle9i Application Server, in the same Oracle Home location, but in a separate Oracle Home location from the Oracle8i database.
Ensure that your system also meets the following requirements before you install Oracle Portal.
Refer to the Oracle9i Application Server Installation Guide for details.
Oracle Portal can be installed in the following databases:
See the "Administration" section of the Oracle9iAS Portal Release Notes for more information on the required database patches.

If you encounter any problems during installation, check the installation session log that describes the actions performed and the components created upon installation. The log file is located in:
ORACLE_HOME>/assistants/opca/install.log
For Unix, you should use csh
or ksh
for installing Oracle Portal. The Oracle Portal Configuration Assistant uses various Oracle utilities which may not work properly in other shells. The Oracle Portal Configuration Assistant invokes sub-shells to run various utilities, including SQL*Plus, SQL*Loader, import, and loadjava. You should disable the sourcing to other Oracle homes in the shells before installing Oracle Portal. For example, if your shell sources to an old Oracle home by default, the Oracle Portal Configuration Assistant when invoked creates a sub-shell that sources to a different Oracle home. This causes the utilities to fail.
