If you trying to install Oracle Application Server or another middleware product (OAS, SOA Suite, OIM, etc..) on Oracle Enterprise Linux and receives the following error:
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3, redhat-Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4, redhat-Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 3, redhat-Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 or SuSE-9
Failed <<<<
This is because the product was released before Oracle Enterprise Linux, so the installer is not aware of this release.
You can use two diferents workarounds for this situation:
1. Run installer with -ignoreSysPrereqs argument
./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
2. To change the /etc/redhat-release file to have the version name to that of "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 4 (Nahant Update 4)" (or something else sopported by installer)
Enjoy.
