  • Problem: This Oracle software was not certified on the current operating system at the time it was made generally available. It may have been certified following general availability. Recommendation: Check the Supported System Configurations Guide (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/ias/downloads/fusion-certification-100350.html) for further details. If your operating system is certified and no other prerequisite checks have failed, press “Next” if you wish to continue.

It’s safe to just click “Next” through this warning.

After completing the install, you’ll need to launch ODI Studio and specify the full path to the necessary jdk (jdk 8 in this instance). You could also manually update the product.conf file listed.

Navigate to the executable and launch ODI studio.

I wanted to create  a custom icon and desktop application link.

/home/joshua/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_Home/odi/studio/bin/

Created a copy of logo.png as this is a nice transparent image.

Cropped the image to just include the small red, white & blue icon.

Saved as icon.png

> cd /usr/share/applications

> sudo vim odi12c.desktop
