Port 1521

The installer displays a warning if port 1521 is in use by any application, including
database listeners of any version. You need to stop the application that is using
port 1521, then click OK in the warning dialog.

If it is a database listener that is using port 1521, you might be able to use it for the
metadata repository database. See

Section 2.5.4, "If Port 1521 Is in Use"

for details.

If it is another application that is using port 1521, you need to stop it or configure it
to use a different port. Alternatively, you can change the database listener to use a
port other than 1521, but you can do this only after installation. See the Oracle
Application Server Administrator’s Guide
for details.

Static port conflicts

The installer checks the ports listed in the staticports.ini file, if specified. See

Section 2.5, "Ports"

.

Monitor

The installer checks that the monitor is configured to display at least 256 colors.

Display permission

The installer checks that the user has permissions to display on the monitor
specified by the DISPLAY environment variable.

DISPLAY environment
variable

The installer checks that the DISPLAY environment variable is set.
