Net Service Listeners in Multi-user Installations:

$ chmod 777 /var/tmp/.oracle

Creating the Stage Area Directory:

Create directory for staging

$cd /

$mkdir stage

Verify software version (perl).

You must have perl 5.0053 or higher installed, and
it must be in your PATH. Use the following commands
to identify the perl version and its location. The
command is the same for both UNIX and Windows platforms:

$perl -v

Mount the DVD

Run the adautostg.pl script.

$ perl /mnt/cdrom/Disk1/rapidwiz/adautostg.pl

Before starting installation check rapidwiz version:

Current Version of Rapid Install
The most current version of the Rapid Install wizard
is 12.0.0.22. You can obtain this version by applying
patch 5885627, available at OracleMetaLink. To verify
your current version, use the RapidWizVersion
executable, located in the rapidwiz directory on the
Start Here DVD. For example:
UNIX:
$ cd /Stage12/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz
$ ./RapidWizVersion

To update the Start Here DVD, uncompress the patch in
the main staging area to overwrite the startCD
directory.
For example:
UNIX:
$ cd /Stage12
$ unzip -o p5885627_R12_GENERIC.zip

OS user account settings:

Create group for user
$groupadd dba
$useradd –g dba oracle
$useradd –g applmgr

Change read write execute permission and ownership
to directories where going to install application
and database

$chmod 777 /u01
$chmod 777 /u02

Start installation

$ /stage/Stage12i/startCD/Disk1/rapidwiz/rapidwiz
