./deinstall: Exited from program error
I am wondering if I can get some help here.

I am deinstalling Oracle home on solaris. Downloaded deintsall zip file from oracle and then ran ./deinstall -home (Full Path)

10 seconds later I get this: Any idea how to resolve this issue?

Code:
$ ./deinstall -home /space/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
Location of logs /space/home/oracle/oraInventory/logs/

############ ORACLE DEINSTALL & DECONFIG TOOL START ############


######################### CHECK OPERATION START #########################
## [START] Install check configuration ##


Checking for existence of the Oracle home location /space/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
Oracle Home type selected for deinstall is: Oracle Single Instance Database
Oracle Base selected for deinstall is: /space/u01/app/oracle
Checking for existence of central inventory location /space/home/oracle/oraInventory
Checking for sufficient temp space availability on node(s) : 'idmux01'

Exited from program.

You can go to the $ORACLE_HOME/oui/bin and run ./detachHome.sh which will remove the Oracle home from the inventory. Which looks like what you did. You would then need to delete the directory for the Oracle home. At that point you can reinstall Oracle. Are you having an issue with installing the Oracle database software?

Hey there.

Well there is already an Oracle Home in my environment but It's looks messy (means all the files all over the place) There is dbhome_1 in 3 different location (copied to a different location manually which kind of messed up everything)

Let's say if I install new Oracle_home and follow all the directions which were given to me by you. Will I be changing the .profile as well.
problem is that there is so much to keep up. (setting path, setting Oracle _home and all that, bash profile etc) It's a good learning experience for me to deal with this but its actually giving me migraine.

This is what I was planning on doing: Deinstall Oracle_home and all the associated dir and then just start a little fresh by installing new home so I am not going in circles wondering what happened now?

You need to create a script for setting the Oracle Environment variables.

Code:
# on both the database server and the app server
export ORACLE_BASE=/space/u01/app/oracle/product
export ORACLE_HOME=/space/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH

# On the database server you also need:
export ORACLE_SID=<your_sid_name>

You can set this in your .profile but you should have a script that sets the variables depending what is in the /etc/oratab file. The /etc/oratab file would have an entry for each database plus one entry for +ASM, if you use ASM.

Setting up your environment variables is necessary for installing Oracle. As for files being all over the place, you have an Oracle home, diag directory, oraInventory. The network directory is under the ORACLE_HOME at $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin.

Thanks for replying. This is what I have:
I have 2 db entries in my Oratab file but those DB don't exist anymore. I was under the impression that Oratab gets updated automatically when you create or delete the DB but it wasn't updated. Someone recommended me to deattach Oracle home and delete it manually but I don't want to do it since I don't how true that is. I will just try to create a DB in a silent mode so it doesn't give me the font error I was getting and let's see what happens.
