SEVERE: OUI-10093 using em_using_existing_db.rsp

I ran into some weird problem while following instructions on how to install Enterprise Grid Control using a response file.

I edited the em_using_existing_db.rsp and filled in the following

UNIX_GROUP_NAME="oinstall"
FROM_LOCATION="/u04/Disk1/oms/Disk1/stage/products.xml"
BASEDIR="/u00/oracle/product/10.2.0"
INSTALLATION_NAME="OEM 10.2.0.5"
ACCEPT_LICENSE_AGREEMENT=true
s_reposHost="oem.yenlo.nl"
s_reposPort="1521"
s_reposSID="R001"
s_reposDBAPwd="xxxx"
s_mgmtTbsName="/u01/oradata/R001/datafile/mgmt.dbf"
s_ecmTbsName="/u01/oradata/R001/datafile/mgmt_ecm_depot1.dbf"
s_securePassword="xxxx"
s_securePasswordConfirm="xxxx"
s_reposPwd="xxxx"
s_reposPwdConfirm="xxxx"


The I ran the following command to start the installation :

./runInstaller -noconfig -silent -responsefile /u04/Disk1/response/em_using_existing_db.rsp


This would throw the following error :


*** Specify Home Details Page***
INFO: Setting the 'OracleHome ( ORACLE_HOME )' property to '"/u00/oracle/product/10.2.0" /oms10g'. Received the value from the command line.
INFO: Setting the 'OracleHomeName ( ORACLE_HOME_NAME )' property to 'oms10g'. Received the value from the command line.

Please do not include quotes around the BASEDIR in en em_using_existing_db.rsp as this confuses the silent installer process.
So make it look like BASEDIR=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0 instead of BASEDIR=”/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0″

Logfile output shows a correct notation of the ORACLE_HOME as meanted.

After removing these the installer went on just fine.
