  Installing Oracle 9i on Mac OS X, Part 3
Subject:   I feel like I'm really close

So after about a week of fighting with installing Oracle on a beige G3 tower runner Darwin 6.6 (equivalent to OS X 10.2.6) I feel like I'm really close to having a working installation.


David's article and some of the comments here have been a great help. Thanks.


But I'm still having one problem, I can't get the database to actually startup. Everything else seems to be starting just fine though. When I run the startup script I get the following error early on:


"Starting Oracle databases...
/Volumes/Oracle/orahome/bin/dbstart: cannot create temp file for here document: Permission denied


Database 'prod1' NOT started."


I've tried to dig through the startup scripts to try to find that error message, but I can't find it anywhere. Does anyone have any ideas what is going on here?


Thanks,
Tim
