I’ll do another post on the entire install later – but for now – java was installed by root as an RPM – and OBIEE was installed as the Linux user oracle.oinstall.
I did a default installation of 12c 12.2.0.2 OBIEE with java, weblogic and OBIEE deployed as follows (note: the environment variables are in the oracle users .bash_profile):
export JAVA_HOME=/usr/java/jdk1.8.0_121
export PATH=$JAVA_HOME:$PATH
export WL_HOME=/u01/app/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_Home
export BI_HOME=/u01/app/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_Home/user_projects/domains/base_domain
Here is what started the node manager, AdminServer and bi_server1 after a reboot.
Note: AdminServer and bi_server1 were the default names assigned during the installation process
First start the node manager
cd $BI_HOME/bin
nohup ./startNodeManager.sh &
Now start the AdminServer and the bi_server1
cd $BI_HOME/bitools/bin
./start.sh -i AdminServer,bi_server1
