I dont think we ship a file called 11gr2.rsp, we ship a file called dbca.rsp

So I'm guessing it a customised file which *might* be the cause.

But the most common cause for "invalid stored block lengths" is a bad download of the software installation files, because ultimately the installation is a large suite of compressed jar files which will be decompressed during installation.

I'd try with a fresh download, or at least a try a normal install to see if you get the same error (to validate the download files).

You can also run the installer to collect more diagnostic information

runinstaller -d-jtracing.enabled=true -d-jtracing.level=2

If you're still stuck, its time to talk to support.
