Oracle and Response File Locations

To be fair, the exception is fairly clear as to root cause: -

$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile ../db_install.rsp

Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

Checking Temp space: must be greater than 120 MB.   Actual 27474 MB    Passed
Checking swap space: must be greater than 150 MB.   Actual 4031 MB    Passed
Preparing to launch Oracle Universal Installer from /tmp/OraInstall2014-07-07_04-07-06PM. Please wait ...[oracle@rhel6 database]$ [FATAL] [INS-10101] The given response file ../db_install.rsp is not found.
   CAUSE: The given response file is either not accessible or do not exist.
   ACTION: Give a correct response file location. (Note: relative path is not supported)


Once I did it properly, all was well: -

$ ./runInstaller -silent -responseFile /mnt/hgfs/Software/Oracle/11gR2/db_install.rsp

Please provide full path

Hey Akash

Thanks for the comment. I don't really understand your question, however. To what are you referring by "full path" ?

The point of my post was to indicate that one DOES need to provide a full path of the response file ( absolute rather than relative path ).

Please expand upon your comment.

Cheers, Dave

Visual Studio Code - Wow 🙀

Why did I not know that I can merely hit [cmd] [p]  to bring up a search box allowing me to search my project e.g. a repo cloned from GitHub...
