Hi

Any thoughts here? Just got a Sun T2000 and am trying to install
Oracle 9.2.0.1 (which will be patched to 9.2.0.4 upon completion, as
per the live machine) in an LDOM and when I run the installer, the
"About" and "Deinstall Product" buttons work, but the "Next" button
doesn't. It won't proceed to the next screen ! The out/err files are 0-
bytes each. It appears to have created the oui structure in /tmp
appropriately.

I can see the button being depressed and "springing" back, but no
movement on. Same thing happens with 10iAS.

Can't see what's going wrong here - have tried to install from my X-
Win server, and also via a CDE desktop on a Sun machine, but not
getting anywhere. Any advice, anyone ?

Thanks

(Just before posting, I also tried this on below with same result.)

Typical. Moments after posting, I worked it out. I'm using PC X-Win
8.2 on Vista 64 and everything else works fine. However, in
desperation, I tried the free Mocha X server on a virtual machine,
clicked Next and it worked instantly.

Doh !

Did you try to turn the num lock keyboard key off? Sometime java apps
show strage behaviour with this key turned on.

Thanks, that's good to know in case I run across a similar problem.
