Hi,
I installed Oracle 8.1.6 on red hat 7.3 (after much pain and hassle). After the install, I tried creating a database, but the problem is after the startup nomount pfile=xxx command is issued, svrmgr seems to hang, then it responds with ora-03113. I just cant seem to figure out whats wrong. any help in this regard would be highly appreciated. I have 256 Megs of Ram
I checked the alert logs and well it seems that the database isntance starts just fine heres the output:

You have to change or check your kernel settings for the shared memory. Also did you backward to glibc 2.1? The ORA-03113 usually reflects insufficient values for these parameters.

Check your values with:

# cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmax
33554432
# cat /proc/sys/kernel/shmmni
4096

and refer to the installation guides Here , Here , Here and Here

Hope that helps,

Yes, I did install the glibc21 package with redhat. without that the installation wouldnt start. my values in proc correspond with the ones you gave, so i dont think thats the problem either. I just spent the last couple of minutes modifying the makefiles and relinking oracle libs. but that didnt help either! :( this is getting frustrating... please... i am desprate... any suggestions???
