I've been trying to install Oracle on Solaris 10 (sparc) for the past
week without progress. Below is what I get. What baffles me is that, I
did not choose to install the oracle companion cd. I just want to
install the database.

"Checking for Oracle Home incompatibilities ...
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: Oracle 10g Database Companion CD products can only be
installed into an existing Oracle Database 10g Oracle Home.
Recommendation: Choose an existing Oracle Database 10g Oracle Home for
installing this software."

Please help

Thanks
Ray

Have you mentioned ORACLE_HOME environment in your oracle profile?
