I'm trying to upgrade from Oracle 7.3.2 to 7.3.3. I'm running Solaris
2.4 and have confirmed that the Solaris Patches identified in Chapt. 3 of
the Installation Guide have been installed. I'm trying to overlay my
current $ORACLE_HOME directory. The installation proceeds and at one
point SQL*LOADER is invoked by the installer to load the help tables.
Soon after this I receive an I/O Bus Error and the Installer process is
halted. I've been following the Option 2 instructions (overlay the
current Oracle Executable) in Chapter 6 of the Installation Guide (the
upgrade chapter). I've followed the instructions exactly except for Task
1 which is to deinstall Oracle 7.3.2. I've never heard of this
requirement previously. Also, I upgraded another 7.3.2 server to 7.3.3
and did not receive this error. The successful server is running Solaris
2.5 and has one instance. The Solaris 2.4 machine has 5 instances and,
for corporate reasons, cannot be upgraded to Solaris 2.5 until a later
date. Has anyone else encountered this error? Any help would be greatly
appreciated.
