I downloaded the 3 oracle 9i for linux files from otn.oracle.com, i extracted all the files and store on HDD say /Disk1, /Disk2, /Disk3
now when i try to run the runInstaller file, its giving an error " cannot execute binary file", i go through the documentation but i'm not getting anything.
there is another file in /Disk1/install/linux/runInstaller.sh , its a script file, when i execute, it is showing 2 errors %PROD_HOME%/install not a file or folder, and the next one is same as above, The script is just calling the main runInstaller file.
Can anybody help me how to solve this problem.

Shri,
Have you tried to check the UNIX filesystem permissions? Do an ls -ls on the Oracle 9i installation filesytem. Then try to grant read/write execution using the chmod +x /filesystem command. You may also need to grant group membership to the oracle installer user using the UNIX chown -R command. Hope this helps
-Ben

You are probably trying to run a 64-bit Oracle version on a 32-bit Linux system. Make sure you downloaded the right Oracle version for your Linux system.
To check if runInstaller is a 32-bit binary or a 64-bit binary, run the following command:
$ cd /mnt/cdrom
$ file install/linux/runInstaller
install/linux/runInstaller: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.0.0, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped
To check if your Linux system is 32-bit system or a 64-bit system, run e.g. the following command:
$ file /sbin/init
/sbin/init: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for GNU/Linux 2.2.5, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), not stripped

The only way that I got around this problem was to copy the downloaded file to a hard disk, do the uncompression first to the hard disk, and then do the installation. I had room for all three CDs to be loaded to the disk; but you could do them one at a time, as required. And since I only install options appropriate for a particular purpose, of course I removed the structures so nobody else can do an installation.
