I have read the Installation Guide for Sun SPARC Solaris (I couldn't find the one for Windows...), the installation steps shown in the doc are quite similar to the Windows version, but I think I may miss some pre-install steps in my previous installation.

I was trying to install the 9i Database, 9iAS Infrastructure and the 9iAS on the same server (due to the limited resource). I had installed the database successfully, and now trying to install the Infrastructure.

I read from the Installation Guide for Sun SPARC Solaris (section 2.5.6.1): "- If you have an existing application using port 1521, then reconfigure the existing application to use another port." "- If you have an existing Oracle Net listener and an Oracle9i database, then proceed with the installation of Oracle9iAS Infrastructure. Your Oracle9iAS Infrastructure will use the existing Oracle Net listener." "- If you have and existing Net8 listener in use by an Oracle8i database, then you must upgrade to the Oracle9i Net listener version by installing Oracle9iAS Infrastructure."

My understanding is that I do not need to do anything for the port 1521, because I use 9i database. Please correct me if I am wrong.

Yes, I use 1 server for 9i database, 9iAS Infrastructure and 9iAS.
