I am trying to install oracle 8.1.7 on HP-UX 11.11 on
L class.
Oracle runinstaller gives error as follows.
"Your local host name database file (typically
/etc/hosts) is not configured properly. This file
should have entry of the form
<IP_ADDRESS> <FULLY_QUALIFIED_HOSTNAME> <ALIASES>"
My nslookup (forward and backward is OK.)
It is as follows.
nslookup bkpsvr(name of the server)
returns 172.17.13.196 and nslookup 172.17.13.196
returns bkpsvr.
I am not using /etc/resolv.conf. My nsswitch.conf is
as follows.
#
# /etc/nsswitch.files:
#
# @(#)B.11.11_LR
#
# An example file that could be copied over to
/etc/nsswitch.conf; it
# does not use any name services.
#
passwd: files
group: files
hosts: files
services: files
networks: files
protocols: files
rpc: files
publickey: files
netgroup: files
automount: files
aliases: files
uname -a returns bkpsvr, hostname also returns bkpsvr.
HOSTNAME in /etc/rc.config.d/netconf has entry as
follows
HOSTNAME="bkpsvr" And I have also done /etc/set_params
hostname, it also returns bkpsvr.
Exceed also gives /etc/hosts error while connecting
and hangs after logging in.
Permissions on file /etc/hosts are bin:bin with read
permission for everyone.
Thanks in advance.
