Upgrading to EBS 12.2.3

No.  EBS 12.0 customers must first upgrade to EBS 12.2 before applying 12.2.3.

Is there a direct upgrade path from EBS 12.2 to 12.2.3?

This method applies to RHEL; let’s first install the VNC Server.

First, locate and mount your RHEL 6.3 install media.

[root@oraerp ~]# cd “/media/RHEL_6.3 x86_64 Disc 1/Packages”

[root@oraerp Packages]# pwd

/media/RHEL_6.3 x86_64 Disc 1/Packages

Install following rpm packages

rpm -ivh xorg-x11-fonts-misc-7.2-9.1.el6.noarch.rpm

rpm –ivh tigervnc-server-1.0.90-0.17.20110314svn4359.el6.x86_64.rpm

Now lets edit the vncservers file to configure display

/etc/sysconfig/vncservers

We can assign numbers to VNC for display like “:2” and “:3”.

In vncservers file we will find “display:user” pairs as defined on a single line.

After this we will set the VNC password for users defined in the “/etc/sysconfig/vncservers” file.

After setting up password, will enable the “vncserver” service for autostart and then start the service.

Our setup is over 🙂 now we can use a VNC viewer to connect to server by using the display numbers and passwords defined in our setup.

Faced issue on Oracle Linux 6.4, after configuring vncserver properly was not able to connect…. after research were able to fix the issue…… here is what i did:

Linux Firewall was stopping to connect so i just disabled through this command service iptables stop

[root]# service vncserver status
Xvnc (pid 4370 4174) is running…
[root@]# service iptables stop
iptables: Flushing firewall rules: [ OK ]
iptables: Setting chains to policy ACCEPT: filter [ OK ]
iptables: Unloading modules: [ OK ]
