 lists the system requirements for running Oracle Application Server. The 

installer checks many of these requirements at the start of the installation process and 
warns you if any of them is not met. To save time, you can manually check only the 
ones that are not checked by the installer. Refer to 

 to see which requirements 

are not checked by the installer.

You can also run the system checks performed by the installer without doing an 
installation, by running the runInstaller command as shown. The runInstaller 
command is on the Oracle Application Server CD-ROM (Disk 1) or DVD-ROM (in the 
application_server

 directory).

CD-ROM:

prompt> mount_point/1014disk1/runInstaller -executeSysPrereqs

DVD-ROM:

prompt> mount_point/application_server/runInstaller -executeSysPrereqs

The results are displayed on the screen as well as written to a log file. For more 
information on the types of checks performed, see
