Oracle 10g install on Solaris 10 workaround
Quick work around for installing Oracle 10g on Solaris 10 (in our case on a v20z).
After creating your staging area you run the Oracle installer and get an error similar to the following
$ ./runInstaller
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be 5.6, 5.7, 5.8 or 5.9. Actual 5.10
Failed <<<<
To work around this you need to edit the oraparam.ini file, in our case this is /export/ora/Disk1/install/oraparam.ini.
Edit the section
[Certified Versions]
#You can customise error message shown for failure through CERTIFIED_VERSION_FAI
LURE_MESSAGE
Solaris=5.6,5.7,5.8,5.9
to be
[Certified Versions]
#You can customise error message shown for failure through CERTIFIED_VERSION_FAI
LURE_MESSAGE
Solaris=5.6,5.7,5.8,5.9,5.10
And thats it, just run through your install as normal.
