Yesterday I completed my first installation of Oracle SOA Suite 10.1.3.1 on Oracle Enterprise Linux 5. In order to complete the installation I followed Metalink Note:465159.1, which explains the exact procedure.
Now the only tip I can give you, is to make sure that the /etc/hosts file contains a line that resolves the locally or DNS assigned computer name and domain to the machines network IP address.
My up until now experience has been with SuSE systems only, so on my machine the /etc/hosts/ file always contains a line like
10.5.1.8 lxbakalidis.shelman.int lxbakalidis
An OEL installation hosts file only contains
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost lxBakalidis ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
... but this is not enough. The installation completed successfully only after I added the line that resolved the external IP to my computer name. So the final etc/hosts file looked something like this :
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs # that require network functionality will fail. 127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost lxBakalidis ::1 localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6 10.5.1.8 lxbakalidis.shelman.int lxbakalidis
The symptoms before that were: First OUI was taking a very long time to do the file copy operation and next when at some point installation would complete, then two out of three configuration assistants would fail.
