hello,

I am 'learning' to install Oracle Enterprise 10 on SLES 9 SP2 and appear to be missing a step or not understanding something. I have sucessfully installed Oracle using runInstall in Interactive mode. Things appeared to go smoothly and I was able to access http://fqdn:1158/em.

Next I am trying to perform the same install but in non-interactive mode.

I run the installation interactively on a freshly installed SUSE box this time recording a response file.

On another fresh SUSE install I try to install Oracle using the response file,
/tmp/oracle/database/runInstaller -silent -responseFile /home1/app/oracle/newinstall.rsp.

This appear to go well. At the end I run root.sh as instructed. I once again go to http://fqdn:1158/en and get the error below. As a side note it appears that the DB is up, as I can run some basic sqlplus command such as select * from dba_users;
