OBIEE SampleApp Virtual Machine
Hi,
I have downloaded 6 zipped parts of OBIEE SampleApp via http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/obiee-samples-2589437.html
I was able to unzip the rest 5 files. However, I couldn't unzip the first zipped file, it said "Operation not permitted". It's always expanding the first file instead of unzipping it when I double click the first file. Could anyone give me any advice on this issue?
Thanks

.zip.zip? Your machine was trying to be intelligent in auto-renaming and failed hilariously.
You got too many file extensions there :-P Discussed quite often in here already as it's something many people face.

Hi @BIAP
Follow the instructions in the deployment guide and you should be ok:
"Download all zip files into a single directory (approx 29GB). Optionally verify integrity of zip files using checksums. Open a zip file manager such as 7zip and select the first zip file (001) and extract. This will extract a compressed VMDK file, and .ovf file into Sampleappv406appliance folder. Open VBox Manager, select Import, navigate to the directory, select the .ovf file and click import. After import the initial image size is about 67 GB."
Use a utility like 7zip (there is a version available for Mac OS X) to extract the files

7zip is always and everywhere counseled. We keep stating this in every thread that asks this question. Just search the forum. As I said we answers this question A LOT in here and people always come down to the same issues
a) renamed files
b) wrong extract utility

zz) corrupted file download

You got everything already in above answers but just to recap:
- rename to the right filenames, it isn't .zip, but .zip.001, .zip.002 etc. (right names isn't an option !)
- check the checksum (the names in the checksum file are the exact names your files must have)
- if with the right names your standard unarchive utility can't extract all of them automatically when extracting the first one (that's how it's supposed to work) use 7zip
- with 7zip (which is free) you extract the first file: the .zip.001, and 7zip will process all the files automatically
- enjoy SampleApp !

Thanks a lot...I searched online, didn't for 7zip for Mac. Keka is the closest to 7zip in Mac world?

Keka should be fine as long as your files have the correct checksum and extensions:

Thanks...Christian. I can unzip the first file now. however, my 256GB macbook run out of space. Each unzipped file is over 30GB...Sad. Now I have to use my Ubuntu machine, I downloaded the p7zip command line. I run "7z e SampleAppv506.zip.001" in terminal, it created a folder SampleAppv506p.zip; However, it throws an error when trying to unzip the rest files. Error: can not open file as archive. Any advice on this?
