Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> Re: Oracle8i installation on Sun Solaris without using X-Windows
Hi Anjali,
Character based install is some what clumsy.
You can install if you have any X srever running on your client or your pc.
Basically, you need to export the DISPLAY to the the ip address of another
host or pc where you will be running the installer from.
export DISPLAY= <ip_address where X Server is running>:0.0
Then make sure that X server is running on ur set client or host(which is
pointed by DISPLAY)
Then u run the $./runInstaller from the CDROM of ur server where u want to
install Oracle on .
HTH.
JR.
