1. Re: Oracle VM manager Installation
Paul Thomas Aug 6, 2015 5:20 AM (in response to 1042337)HI
I Had the same problem. I had build the manager previously, and had managed to break it, so was trying a reinstall when I got the same error. I had to reinstall linux(6.7) again and it worked.
I Suspect the problem may have been caused by applying all the patches on the original install after my initial install of the manager software.
DId you patch the server before trying to install? If so, it may be worth trying on a fresh install with no patches applied.
I assume you ran ./createOracle.sh first?

1354452 Aug 7, 2015 7:37 AM (in response to 1042337)If you have access to Oracle support, Refer: Unable to Install Oracle VM Manager 3.x on Oracle Linux 6 Update 7 (Doc ID 2040173.1)
Basically its a known issue..
A code fix will be provided through Bug 21548314 - BACKPORT REQUEST: MANAGER DOES NOT INSTALL ON OL6U7.
The workaround below can be used until the fix is available:
Rename /etc/oracle-release temporarily to /etc/xx_oracle-release.orig
Important: After the upgrade, the file should be renamed back to its original name /etc/oracle-release
Hope that helps..

Logan Rosenstein-Oracle Nov 18, 2015 6:04 PM (in response to 4edc4c49-806d-4ee2-a99f-dc3510109154)Did you mean since the file /etc/oracle-release was missing, the procedure stops? Just wanted to clarify.

Darshan.ky Feb 3, 2016 6:41 AM (in response to 1042337)If you are still facing this issue and /etc/oracle-release is missing, here is a workaround for you.
edit /usr/bin/lsb_release and find entry for CHECKFOR=oracle-release and replace it redhat-relase. This should help you. I had come across same issue and was failing with error:
Universal Installer error. Also make sure you haveu mask set to 022.
