Section 6.3.1, "Starting the 32-Bit Oracle Web Tier Installer on a 64-Bit Linux Operating System" Section 6.3.2, "Starting the Generic Installer with a 32-Bit JDK on a 64-Bit Operating System"
6.3.1 Starting the 32-Bit Oracle Web Tier Installer on a 64-Bit Linux Operating System
If you are installing the 32-bit version of Oracle Web Tier on a 64-bit Linux operating system, there are extra steps that must be performed before Oracle Web Tier can be installed. Instructions are provided in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Web Tier. Installing a 32-bit version of Oracle Web Tier on a 64-bit Windows operating system is not supported.
6.3.2 Starting the Generic Installer with a 32-Bit JDK on a 64-Bit Operating System
If you are installing Oracle SOA Suite, Oracle WebCenter Portal, Oracle WebCenter Content, Oracle Application Developer, Oracle Service Bus, or Oracle Identity and Access Management on any supported 64-bit operating system with a 32-bit JDK, you must specify the JRE_LOCATION using the -jreLoc parameter from the command line when you start the product installer. For example:
./runInstaller -jreLoc JRE_LOCATION
Normally, if you do not use the -jreLoc parameter you will be prompted to specify the JRE_LOCATION from the command line. However, this option is not supported in such cases, and the installer will not start.

6.4 Special Startup Requirements for Linux x86 or Linux x86-64 Operating Systems
If you are running Oracle Universal Installer on Linux x86 or Linux x86-64 operating systems, you must modify the value of the SHMMAX kernel parameter to avoid seeing errors generated by the Oracle Universal Installer. To do so:
1.
Change the value of SHMMAX to 4294967295 by including the following line in /etc/sysctl.conf:
kernel.shmmax = 4294967295
2.
3.
6.5 Installing on Operating Systems Not Certified at the Time of Product Release
In some cases, an operating system will become certified for use with Oracle Fusion Middleware products after a particular release has been made available. If you try to install your Oracle Fusion Middleware product on one of these newly-certified operating systems, the product installer will give you a warning message during startup, indicating that the operating system on which you are installing is not valid. For example:
Warning: Checking operating system certification Expected result: One of enterprise-5.4,enterprise-4,enterprise-5,redhat-5.4,redhat-4,redhat-5,SuSE-10 Actual Result:SuSE-11 Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed Problem: This Oracle software is not certified on the current operating system.
To work around this issue, you can click the Continue button to ignore this warning message, or you can start the installer with the -ignoreSysPrereqs option. For example:
./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
This issue is currently seen in the platform, product, and release combinations described in Table 6:

8.3 Required Installation Privileges for Oracle Identity Management and Oracle Forms and Reports on Windows Operating Systems
In order to install Oracle Identity Management, Oracle Forms and Reports, or use the Oracle Forms and Reports Builders after installation on a Microsoft Windows Vista or newer operating system, the operating system user must have Windows "Administrator" privileges. Even when a user with "Administrator" privileges logs in to the machine, the administrative role is not granted for default tasks. In order to access the Oracle home files and folders, the user must launch the command prompt or Windows Explorer as "Administrator" explicitly, even if the user is logged in as the administrator. To do so, you can do either one of the following:
Find the Command Prompt icon (for example, from the Start menu or from the Desktop), right-click on the icon, and select Run as Administrator. Then you can
27
run the executables (for example, the WebLogic Server installer) from the command line.
Start Windows Explorer, find the executable you want to run (for example, rcu.bat for RCU, config.bat for the Configuration Wizard, or setup.exe for the installer), right-click on the executable, and select Run as Administrator.

10.3 Using Oracle Express Edition (XE) Database for Oracle SOA Suite
Oracle Database is the recommended database for SOA Suite deployments. Oracle Express Edition (XE) database is not supported.
Section 10.4.1, "Notes for Using an Oracle Database for the MDS Schema" Section 10.4.2, "Notes for Using a Microsoft SQL Server Database for the MDS Schema" Section 10.4.3, "Notes for Using an IBM DB2 Database for the MDS Schema" Section 10.4.4, "Notes for Using a MySQL Database for the MDS Schema"
10.4.1 Notes for Using an Oracle Database for the MDS Schema
Note that when you use an Oracle Database, the MDS database user created by Repository Creation Utility (RCU) requires EXECUTE privilege on DBMS_OUTPUT and DBMS_LOB. When you create a metadata repository using RCU, if PUBLIC does not have EXECUTE privilege on DBMS_OUTPUT and DBMS_LOB, the RCU user must have the privilege to grant EXECUTE privilege on DBMS_OUTPUT and DBMS_LOB to the MDS user. To ensure that you have the correct privileges, login to RCU as a SYSDBA or as a DBA user who has EXECUTE privilege with GRANT OPTION on DBMS_OUTPUT and DBMS_LOB.
10.4.2 Notes for Using a Microsoft SQL Server Database for the MDS Schema
Note the following about using SQL Server as the database for MDS:
To create a metadata repository in SQL Server, set READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT to ON for the hosting database. This enables the needed row versioning support. This feature can be enabled using the SQL command ALTER DATABASE, as in the following example:
ALTER DATABASE mds SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON
You should use case-sensitive collation to support the case-sensitive semantics in the metadata repository. For example, if Latin1_General is used, select the SQL_ Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS collation using the following SQL command:
ALTER DATABASE mds COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS
In the example, the substring CS denotes case sensitivity. In you ned to configure your database for case-insensitive collation, use the CI substring.
30
When installed on SQL Server, Oracle Content Server 10g requires a database instance with case-insensitive collation. As a result, it cannot exist in the same SQL Server database instance as MDS. If you want to install both MDS and Oracle Content Server 10g, you must create a separate database instance with case-insensitive collation for installing the Oracle Content Server 10g schema. There are some minor differences between an Oracle schema and a SQL Server schema. The length of the certain text fields are shorter for a SQL Server schema. For example, the full path name of the metadata in SQL Server is limited to 400 characters.
10.4.3 Notes for Using an IBM DB2 Database for the MDS Schema
Note the following about using DB2 as the database for MDS:
DB2 9.7 or later must be used for MDS repository to work properly. Make sure that CUR_COMMIT is set to "ON", which is the default value for a newly installed DB2 9.7 database. This setting can be verified using following DB2 command:
db2 connect to your_database user admin_user db2 "get db cfg" | grep -I commit Curently Committed (CUR_COMMIT) = ON
Set the lock timeout parameter of the database to a low value. Unlike Oracle databases, with DB2, if one user is updating a row, under some conditions, another user may be blocked when updating a different row and must wait until the transaction is committed or rolled back by the first user. To facilitate better concurrency, do not specify -1, which sets the lock timeout to infinity. To query the lock timeout value for your DB2 database, use the following command:
db2 'get database config for database_alias' | grep -i timeout
If the value is too high, change it. For example, to change the lock timeout value to 180 seconds, use the following command:
db2 'update database config for database_alias using locktimout 180'
Choose a proper value for the locktimeout parameter. If a large value is used, it will affect system throughput, since the transaction has to wait a very long time before giving up. If the value is set too small, users will see many timeout exceptions if the database is processing many long running transactions.
Set the DB2 registry variables DB2_EVALUNCOMMITTED, DB2_SKIPINSERTED, and DB2_ SJIPDELETED to OFF to avoid deadlock and locking issues. By default, they are set to OFF. To view the current registry variables setting, use the db2set -all command. If they are not set to OFF, use the following commands:
db2set DB2_EVALUNCOMMITTED=OFF db2set DB2_SKIPINSERTED=OFF db2set DB2_SKIPDELETED=OFF
Restart the database server using the using db2stop and db2start commands.
DB2 may escalate a row lock to a table lock due to memory stress or lock usage. As the result, a user's transaction may be rolled back as a victim of deadlock or lock
31
timeout. To reduce lock escalation, you can increase the size of the MAXLOCKS and LOCKLIST configuration parameters. Use the following commands:
db2 'update database config for database_alias using locklist value' db2 'update database config for database_alias using maxlocks value'
The isolation level must be set to Currently Committed. To verify the setting, use the following command:
db2 'get database config for database_alias' | grep -i commit
To set the isolation level to Currently Committed, use the following command:
db2 'update database config for database_alias using CUR_COMMIT ON'
If the database transaction log is often full, increase the database configuration parameter to allow for a larger log file. A larger log file requires more space, but it reduces the need for applications to retry the operation. You should set the log file size to at least 10000 and the number of primary log files to at least 50. Use the following commands:
db2 'update database config for database_alias using LOGFILESIZ 10000' db2 'update database config for database_alias using LOGPRIMARY 50'\
If an MDS DB2 data source is created under an IBM WebSphere application server and the IBM DB2 JCC driver is chosen for the data source, the progressiveStreaming=2 property must be added to the property list of the data source. In effect, progressive streaming will be disabled. Without this property setting, MDS may run into issues in accessing document contents saved in a large object (LOB) column in the MDS repository.
10.4.4 Notes for Using a MySQL Database for the MDS Schema
Note the following about using MySQL as the database for MDS:
MySQL 5.5.14 or later must be used for the MDS repository to work properly. You must select MySQL's Innodb engine as the database engine during database installation. Set the lock timeout parameter of the database to a low value. To query the lock timeout value for your MySQL database, use the following command under the MySQL client:
show variables like 'innodb_lock_wait_timeout';
If the value is too high, change it. For example, to change the lock timeout value to 600 seconds at database level, use the following command:
set global innodb_lock_wait_timeout=600
The database will not remember this setting after it is rebooted. To keep the setting, make the corresponding changes in the my.cnf file. Choose a proper value for the innodb_lock_wait_timeout parameter. If a large value is used, it will affect system throughput, since the transaction has to wait a very long time before giving up. If the value is set too small, users will see many timeout exceptions if database is processing many long running transactions.
32
MySQL provides several my.cnf templates under the mysql_home/support-files directory. To configure MySQL to work property with MDS, use my-large.cnf as the starting point for your my.cnf and make the following setting changes:
# The following stack memories must be set to a large enough value: thread_stack=1024k # Increase max_allowed_packet to allow for longer lobs. max_allowed_packet = 64M # max_sp_recursion_depth should be 64 max_sp_recursion_depth=64 # Set the sql_mode to STRICT_TRANS_TABLES, so MySQL will report an error if a # string value is too long for the table field. By default, MySQL will silently truncate a string value. # Also set NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES so strings like '\' will be accepted. sql_mode=STRICT_TRANS_TABLES,NO_BACKSLASH_ESCAPES # Set collation and character set for the server. character-set-server=utf8mb4 collation-server=utf8mb4_bin # Transaction isloatoin has to be "READ-COMMITED". transaction-isolation=READ-COMMITTED # Uncomment the following settings for InnoDB tables innodb_data_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend innodb_log_group_home_dir = /usr/local/mysql/data # You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 % # of RAM but beware of setting memory usage too high innodb_buffer_pool_size = 256M innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 20M # Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size innodb_log_file_size = 64M innodb_log_buffer_size = 8M innodb_flush_log_at_trx_commit = 1 innodb_lock_wait_timeout = 50 # The following three parameters will ensure that MDS repository indexes # can be created successfully. innodb_file_per_table=true innodb_file_format=Barracuda innodb_large_prefix=true # If log-bin is turned on, the following parameter # must be on to ensure MDS triggers can be created successfully. log_bin_trust_function_creators=ON binlog_format=mixed # In the [client] section of the configuration file, set the character set. default_character_set=utf8mb4
Oracle WebLogic Server 10.3.5 and earlier versions do not have MySQL JDBC driver configured. Use a later version of Oracle WebLogic Server if you want to choose a MySQL database as a data source. Tips for starting MySQL Server using mysqld_safe: It is suggested to use the "--defaults-file=your_my.cnf" parameter when you start mysqld_safe, which will ensure a desired copy of my.cnf is used by your mySQL server. The
33
"--defaults-file" parameter has to be the first parameter of your mysqld_safe command. For example:
./mysqld_safe --defaults-file=/etc/my.cnf --user=mysql &
Be sure to set the access privileges of your my.cnf file to "-rw-r--r--". MySQL will ignore your my.cnf if other users have "write" access.

Database version is equal to or higher than 10.2.0.4.0 in 10g or equal to or higher than 11.1.0.7.0 in 11g. Database user has SYSDBA role. If you are creating schemas on an Oracle database, you must have SYSDBA privileges. For example, you can use the default database user SYS with SYSDBA privileges, or you must use a database user that has been granted the role of SYSDBA. If you using a user other than SYS with SYSDBA privileges, you must grant the user permissions as follows:
GRANT execute on sys.dbms_lock to user_name with grant option
For example, if you have created and are using the user named system, you would use the following command to grant the necessary privileges to system:
GRANT execute on sys.dbms_lock to system with grant option
Refer to your Oracle database documentation for more information about database users and roles.
Character set is AL32UTF8. If your database does not use the AL32UTF8 character set, you will see the following warning when running RCU:
The database you are connecting is with non-AL32UTF8 character set. Oracle strongly recommends using AL32UTF8 as the database character set.
If you are installing Oracle WebCenter Portal or Oracle Identity Management, you must configure your database to use AL32UTF8 character set encoding. If your database is not already configured to do so, refer to your database documentation for instructions. If you are installing a new database, be sure to configure your database to use AL32UTF8 character set encoding.

The SGA_MAX_SIZE is greater than or equal to 147456KB. The DB_BLOCK_SIZE is greater than or equal to 8KB
11.2.3 Setting the nls_length_semantics Parameter in your Oracle Database for Oracle Discoverer
Oracle Discoverer only supports schemas in a byte-mode database. The nls_length_ semantics initialization parameter on the database where the schemas reside must be set to BYTE; setting this parameter to CHAR is not supported. To check the values of this parameter using SQL*Plus, you can use the show parameters command:
prompt> sqlplus "sys/password as sysdba"SQL> show parameters nls_length_semantics
Replace password with the actual password for the SYS user. Alternatively, you can check the values by querying the V$PARAMETER view:
prompt> sqlplus "sys/password as sysdba"SQL> select name,value from v$parameter;
11.2.4 Applying Oracle Database Patch 8625762 for Oracle Business Process Management Suite
If you are installing Oracle Business Process Management Suite (part of Oracle SOA Suite) and you are using an Oracle database, you must apply patch 8625762 to avoid error ORA-03137 and OutOfMemory exception. You can obtain the patch by specifying the patch ID in My Oracle Support (formerly MetaLink):

11.3.2 Creating Oracle WebCenter Portal Schemas on Microsoft SQL Server Databases
If you are creating the schemas in a Microsoft SQL Server database, a database instance must be created prior to running RCU. The MDS schema has some specific requirements; see "Databases Supported by MDS" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for more information. In addition, the MDS schema requires a database with case sensitive collation, while Oracle Content Server 10g requires a database instance with case insensitive collation. If you wish to install Oracle Content Server 10g on a SQL Server database, you will need to create two database instances (one with case sensitive collation and one with case insensitive collation) and run RCU twice: once to install the Oracle Content Server 10g schemas into the database instance with case insensitive collation, and a second time to install all of the other WebCenter Portal schemas into the database instance with case sensitive collation.

If you create a schema named DEV_SOA on an IBM DB2 database running on a Linux operating system, then you must also create the operating system user dev_ soa (matching name, all lowercase letters). If you create a schema named DEV_SOAINFRA on an IBM DB2 database running on a Windows operating system, then you must also create the operating system user dev_soainfra (matching name, all lowercase letters).
If you are creating schemas in an IBM DB2 database running on a Windows operating system, the schema names are the same as the ones for a Microsoft SQL Server or Oracle database. See Section 11.4.1, "Creating Database Operating System Users" for important information about creating the operating system users. When the tablespaces are created, RCU will automatically create them with the necessary tablespace sizes.
