Express Edition 21c silent installation fatal error DBT-10316 GDB Domain

User_GP9H9

Hello all,

we do silent installation of XE 21c on a Windows 10 Pro virtual machine, we reset the VM, install, check outcome and start over. The installation fails in about 2 of 3 cases.

Our response file:

INSTALLDIR=C:\oraclexe\

PASSWORD=SECRET

LISTENER_PORT=0

EMEXPRESS_PORT=0

CHAR_SET=AL32UTF8

Call of installer:

start /WAIT C:\oxe21\setup.exe /w /s /L1033 /v"RSP_FILE=C:\oxe21\response.rsp" /v"/L*v C:\oxe21\setup.log" /v"/qn"

From setup.log we see that dbca is executed with -gdbName XE.°ö+£‡

And product\21c\cfgtoollog\dbca\silent log file shows:

[ 2022-02-22 05:26:30.711 CET ] [FATAL] [DBT-10316] Specified GDB Domain (°ö+£‡) contains characters that are not allowed.

Anyone an idea why this is happening ?

Thank you,

Stephan
