EBS R12 - 12.2 installation problem, not able to run DB installer. check staging area



During the prerequisite checks in EBS 12.2 installation, you may encounter the following problem ..
"not able to run DB installer. check staging area.."



I checked the permission of staging area it's full permission then I run the database installation script under below directory. Actually, it was swap space problem..So I added swap space and resolved this issue.








/ora/12stage/TechInstallMedia/database/database
[oracle@oraebs1 database]$ ./runInstaller

    >>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if the DISPLAY variable is set.    Failed <<<<
