Installing oracle 9i

[newbiepg]

I had posted this on the oracle forum but did not get any answers
I am getting stuck while installing Oracle 9i on redhat 7.3, right now it says that the java path file was not correctly set and it could not find the jre folder
Can someone tell me how to do this, we have 3 cds and we can copy them to the hard disk as there is enough space

Hi,
One quick question:
Have you installed java run time [this you can test typing java command]
If not ---
search for java download for Linux and download that. You can download the run time version.
After installing that note down the directory [/java1.4 for example]
After that set
export $PATH=$PATH:/java1.4:/java1.4/bin:/java1.4/lib
Note down the jar files and set the CLASSPATH as
export CLASSPATH=<jar_1_file_with_path>:<jar_2_file_with_path>:...
Finally say
export CLASSPATH=$CLASSPATH:$HOME
Then you are all set to install oracle.
Hope this helps

yup jdk and jakarta tomcat have been installed
I set two variables
JAVA_HOME
and
PATH variables and exported the path variable
Java is working fine, so is Tomcat

do I need the classpath setting?
