[rt-users] RE: 'make initialize-database' giving error while installation

[Nathan, Ahalya]

When I tried to get a way around my problem by giving different
parameters in the configure script, I get the error.

 

[root at example rt-3.4.1]# ./configure --prefix=/usr/local/rt_dev/rt
--with-db-type=Oracle --with-db-dba=** \

> --with-db-database=example --with-db-rt-user=**  --with-db-rt-pass=**
--with-fastcgi --with-oracle

checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c

checking for perl... /usr/local/bin/perl

checking for chosen layout... RT3

configure: error: Please declare the ORACLE_HOME environment variable

[root at example rt-3.4.1]# Please declare the ORACLE_HOME environment
variable

 

Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong. Thanks in advance.

 

Regards,

Ahalya

Hi all,

I am trying to configure RT in my system but it fails when I run the
"make initialize-database' command. 

 

I did the following steps:

[root at example rt-3.4.1]#./configure -prefix=/usr/local/rt_dev/rt
--with-fastcgi -with-oracle

And then ran the following commands:

*********************************************

perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-oracle --with-fastcgi --verbose

perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-oracle --with-fastcgi --install

perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-oracle --with-fastcgi --verbose |
grep MISSING

perl -MCPAN -e 'install MIME::Base64'

perl -MCPAN -e 'install MIME::Entity'

perl -MCPAN -e 'install Log::Dispatch'

perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-oracle --with-fastcgi --install

perl sbin/rt-test-dependencies --with-oracle --with-fastcgi --verbose |
grep MISSING

make install

 

This installs RT in the directory specified but when I run the make
initialize-database command it gives an error:

 

root at example rt-3.4.1]#make initialize-database

[root at example rt-3.4.1]# Please specify that user's database password
below. If the user has no database

> password, just press return.

I did make changes to the RT_SiteConfig.pm to give the database type,
user,password, database, port( I am giving 1522 since 1521 is in use).
Could someone tell me what I am doing wrong.
