This chapter describes how to perform a silent and non-interactive installation of Oracle9i Application Server Release 2 (9.0.3) (Oracle9iAS 9.0.3). The topics include:
Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 features two methods of non-interactive installation:
Silent installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 is accomplished by supplying the Oracle Universal Installer with a response file and specifying the -silent flag on the command line. The response file is a text file.
The installer uses the variables and parameter values contained in the response file to provide answers to all of the installer prompts. You include responses for all of the installer prompts in the response file. Silent installation displays no graphical output.
If this is the first silent installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3, you must create a response file before starting. File creation is described in Section 4.3, "Preinstallation". File parameters are described in Section 4.7, "Response File Parameter Definitions".
Following installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3, you need to run the root.sh script. The root.sh script detects settings of environmental variables and allows you to enter the full path of the local bin directory.
Use silent installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 when you require similar installations on more than one computer. Additionally, use silent install when performing the Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation from a remote location using the command line. Silent installation eliminates the need to monitor the Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation because there is no graphical output and no input by the user.
Non-interactive installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 is also accomplished by supplying the Oracle Universal Installer with a response file but without specifying the -silent flag on the command line. The response file is a text file. The installer uses the variables and parameter values contained in the response file to provide answers to some or all of the installer user prompts. There is graphical output and if you have not provided responses to all of the installer prompts, you may need to enter information during the installation.
If this is a first non-interactive installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3, you must create a response file before starting. File creation is described in Section 4.3, "Preinstallation". File parameters are described in Section 4.7, "Response File Parameter Definitions".
Following installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3, you need to run the root.sh script. The root.sh script detects settings of environmental variables and allows you to enter the full path of the local bin directory.
Use non-interactive installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 when there are specific screens you want to observe during installation. Additionally, you can use non-interactive installation when performing the Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation from a remote location using the command line.

For a complete list of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation requirements, refer to Chapter 2, "Getting Started".
If the oraInst.loc file does not exist on your computer, you must create the file before starting the silent and non-interactive installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3.
See Table 2-11 for the location of the orainst.loc file for your system. The file is used by the Oracle Universal Installer during installation.
As the root user, create the oraInst.loc file in the directory specified in Table 2-11. The oracle group is the group performing the installation.
Enter the following line of text in the orainst.loc file:
inventory_loc=/full_path/oui_inventory
The oraInst.loc file specifies inventory_loc location for inventory files. If the oraInst.loc file is not located in your Oracle home, make sure the file has read and write permission for the oracle group.
Before silent or non-interactive installation you must provide information specific to your installation.
You must create a response file using any text editor or use the templates available in the stage/Response directory on Disk1 of your Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 product CD-ROM. The response file you use must match the examples shown. Each type of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation uses the response parameters listed below:
[SESSION] UNIX_GROUP_NAME="your_unix_group_name" FROM_LOCATION="/mount_point/stage/products.jar" FROM_LOCATION_CD_LABEL="Oracle9i Application Server 9.0.3.0.0" ORACLE_HOME="ORACLE_HOME" ORACLE_HOME_NAME="ORACLE_HOME_NAME" SHOW_SPLASH_SCREEN=true SHOW_WELCOME_PAGE=false SHOW_COMPONENT_LOCATIONS_PAGE=false SHOW_CUSTOM_TREE_PAGE=false SHOW_SUMMARY_PAGE=false SHOW_INSTALL_PROGRESS_PAGE=true SHOW_REQUIRED_CONFIG_TOOL_PAGE=false SHOW_OPTIONAL_CONFIG_TOOL_PAGE=false SHOW_RELEASE_NOTES=false SHOW_ROOTSH_CONFIRMATION=false SHOW_END_SESSION_PAGE=false SHOW_EXIT_CONFIRMATION=false NEXT_SESSION=false NEXT_SESSION_ON_FAIL=false SHOW_DEINSTALL_CONFIRMATION=false SHOW_DEINSTALL_PROGRESS=true
For AIX, HP-UX and HP TRU64 UNIX systems, the following parameter also exists:
JDKHome="<Location Of JDK 1.3.1.X On Your System>"
The following text shows the parameter definitions for installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 without Oracle9iAS Single Sign-On:
[oracle.iappserver.iapptop_9.0.3.0.0] szl_InstanceInformation={"iASInstanceName", "iASInstancePassword", "iASInstancePassword"} b_configureCalypso=true SSOselectStatus="N" SSOport="sso_port" SSOhost="sso_hostname.domain" SHOW_IAS_COMPONENT_CONFIG_PAGE=false nValidationOID=0 nValidationInstanceInfo=0 nValidationCoreSSO=0
The following text shows the parameter definitions for installation of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 with Oracle9iAS Single Sign-On:
[oracle.iappserver.iapptop_9.0.3.0.0] OIDport="oid_port" OIDhost="oid_hostname.domain" szl_OIDUserOutput={"cn=orcladmin", "oid_password"} szl_InstanceInformation={"iASInstanceName", "iASInfrastructureInstancePassword", "iASInfrastructureInstancePassword"} b_configureCalypso=true SSOselectStatus="Y" SSOport="sso_port" SSOhost="sso_hostname.domain" SHOW_IAS_COMPONENT_CONFIG_PAGE=false nValidationOID=0 nValidationInstanceInfo=0 nValidationCoreSSO=0
To make the installer use the response file at install time, open a command prompt window and specify the location of the response file that you wish to use as a parameter when starting the installer.
To perform a non-interactive installation session:
prompt> setenv DISPLAY ias_hostname:0.0 prompt> ./runInstaller -responseFilepath/responsefile
To perform a completely silent installation session, use the -silent parameter:
prompt> setenv DISPLAYias_hostname:0.0prompt>./runInstaller-silent -responseFilepath/responsefile
The success or failure of the non-interactive and silent installations is logged in the installActions.log file. Additionally, the silent installation creates the silentInstall.log file. The log files are created in the oraInventory directory during installation.
The silentInstall.log file contains the following line if your installation was successful:
The installation of Oracle9iAS Installation_Type was successful.
The installActions.log file contains specific information for each Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation. The following sections show information specific to each type of Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 installation:
The installActions.log file contains the following information for successful Oracle9iAS 9.0.3 without Oracle9iAS Single Sign-On installation:
