Copy the RPM to the desktop of the server or VM and click to Install.

First Install  openmotif21-2.1.30-11.EL5.i386

Now After Installing all the RPMs we have to do some Configuration in order to complete our application Installation Smoothly.

For Running JAVA forms on Linux

Now, go to Mozilla directory from Oracle home directory

create folder plugins Goto plugins folder

and copy the path: /home/oracle/.mozilla/plugins

ln -s /usr/java/jre1.7.0_45/lib/amd64/libnpjp2.sp /home/oracle/.mozilla/plugins

Link to Motif library in Oracle Application Server 10.1.2 (on Oracle Linux 5, 6 and RHEL 5, 6 only)

Create link of libX11 by below command:

ln -s /usr/X11R6/lib/libXtst.so.6.1 /usr/lib/libXtst.so.6

Now Create OraInventory Directory:

mkdir -p /u01/oracle/oraInventory

Create oraInst.loc file in oraInventory directory and /etc:

Vi /etc/oraInst.loc

Or

Gedit /etc/oraInst.loc

Now, Enter the below text in oraInst.loc file and then save the file:

inventory_loc=/u01/oracle/oraInventory

Create softlink if libdb.so.2 is not there (for avoid login page issue in post installation steps):

ln -s /usr/lib/libgdbm.so.2.0.0 /usr/lib/libdb.so.2

Staging  (R12.2.0 Binaries)

Installation Steps:

Now, go to the stage directory and run rapidwiz installer.

$cd /u01/stage/StartCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/

$./rapidwiz

[edsanimate_start entry_animation_type= “fadeIn” entry_delay= “0” entry_duration= “0.5” entry_timing= “linear” exit_animation_type= “” exit_delay= “” exit_duration= “” exit_timing= “” animation_repeat= “infinite” keep= “yes” animate_on= “load” scroll_offset= “” custom_css_class= “”]
