Installation 10g (10.2) on Debian/Sarge

Hi list,
has anyone some experiences in installation 10g (e-g- 10.2) on Debian/Sarge ?
Do you know about an url for an (short) installation guide ?
thanks in advance.
greets,
Rainer

Just to clarify a difference in product suites. "10g R2" is now (at least on linux so far) really ambiguous - meaning Application Server 10.1.2 or Database Server 10.2. I guess poster asked about Database 10.2. Better to skip the marketing speak/labels altogether in technical discussions like these!
note to poster: if you find a short install guide, you can bet it is incomplete ;-)

XE 10G on Debian Sarge coming soon?

I've read references in this forum and others that there will be packges of XE 10G for Debian Sarge coming soon. Are there any updates on the timeline for that?

Is there any news about this?
Thanks in advance

Problem using Instant Client 10g with PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian Sarge

Hello,
My current email is [email protected]
I am trying to use PHP on Debian box using Oracle 10gR2 on a RH 4 server. Everything works fine individually, but I cannot get PHP4 to use InstantClient to connect to the Oracle Server. This is what I've done:
Oracle 10gR2 works fine on the RH 4 server. Listener is running and all required OS security is in place and works (TCP_wrappers, etc.).
Client machine runs Debian 3.1 (Sarge). It works fine and SSH connectivity to RH4 server works.
Instant Client 10gR2 installed on Debian client and works fine. Tested SQL*Plus connection to the RH server. I installed Instant Client from the zip file.
I did have to add libclntsh.so to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig to get Debian to use it, though.
Apache2.0.54-5 on Debian client works fine. Web pages on it can be opened in browsers from other machines.
Installed PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian client using following:
./configure --with-oci8-instant-client=<dir of my choice>
--enable-sigchild
I first checked ./configure help and the option with-oci8-instant-client was there.
Configure went well. Log showed checking for Instant Client files.
Ran make. Saw numerous Instant Client message as words scrolled.
Ran make install. Successful.
Restarted Apache2 with following env variables:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<my Instant Client directory)
TNS_ADMIN=<same directory where I put my sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files).
SQLPATH=<same directory>
I know this is correct because Instant Client SQL*Plus can connect.
Browsers on other machines can view simple php scripts run from the Debian box.
BUT, phpinfo does NOT show an OCI8 section.
phpinfo does show the correct extension directory, though.
Somehow, my PHP4 configure and make is not using the --with-oci8-instant-client option.
I checked $PHP4HOME/ext/oci8/config.m4 file and the verbiage IS in there to use the --with-oci8-instant-client option, either with the default location or the extension_dir location.
I tried using the new ZendCore product, even though it is not certified for Debian. It installed okay but I could not get PHP5 to work. I uninstalled it successfully and redid all of the above.
So, any ideas as to what else I can do here? Other than not use Debian (which is probably the wisest thing to do). And I suppose I could install a thick Oracle client, assuming that Debian would take it. But I prefer the Instant Client.
I tried the PHP ./configure syntax I've seen several places on this forum.
./configure --with-oci8=instantclient,<directory>
This syntax may work on Red Hat machines but it throws a syntax error on Debian and aborts the configure.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks, but that did not work. Configure aborts because it cannot find the required OCI8 libraries. The --with-oci8 option is for the Oracle "thick" client. I have only the Instant Client...and am not interested in loading the older client.
I may have my own solution next week, though. I will be loading RH4 on a new server and will then install ZendCore and forget all about using Oracle with Debian.
Update on trying ZendCore on Debian Sarge:
I tried installing it again yesterday. The install seemed go to well, and said it was successful.
It did NOT load PHP5, however. Nor did it load the Instant Client. My previously installed PHP4 and Instant Client remained in my original directories.

Java GUI freezes in Debian/Sarge

Hi,
I am running a Debian/Sarge
#uname -a
Linux jukebox 2.6.14.2 #5 PREEMPT Mon Nov 28 20:28:54 CET 2005 i686 GNU/Linux
I have a java casino game created by jdk (1.6.0_02) netbeans(5..5.1) . If I run it in development machine (windows) it runs okay. It also runs okay in (fedora)
But I got problme when I run it in the Debian. after some clickings and typings it gets frozen. just frozen. I can not work with it. I though I would compile it with netbeans. then I install netbeans. But Netbeans also shows the same behavior. To bo sure, I tried jEdit. The result was same. hang. the GUI.
I am sure its about Debian vs JDK
Can you please help me?

Does anybody know any similar case? ThanksI suspect that your Ubuntu is defaulting to OpenJDk or some other Java/JDK . Remove all Java installations and then install Sun JDK 6 using sun-java6-bin .

This happened to me also when installing on Slackware (current, now 10.2). Whenever you get errors in the OUI during the link phase, you should also take a look at $ORACLE_HOME/install/make.log. Turns out that the shared library libagtsh.so wasn't build which caused the errors during the link phase. Oracle expects 'basename' to be in /bin. Furthermore I noticed that Oracle expects 'libgcc_s.so.1' to be in /lib. On Slackware I did the following to successfully install 10g Release 2:
cd /bin ; ln -sf /usr/bin/basename basename
cd /lib ; ln -sf /usr/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so.1 ; ln -sf libgcc_s.so.1 libgcc_s.so
Hope this helps,
Joep

Sarge has a 2.4 kernel, which is running LinuxThreads rather than NPTL.
Newer JRockits don't work on LinuxThreads.
Your options are to upgrade to a 2.6 kernel, or to use an older JRockit.
JRockit 1.4.2_08 == 81sp5 == R24.5.0 should work on that system.

Database size installation 10g

Good Morning,
I just have a question. I just installed 10g on solaris 10. While I was watching the installation process I noticed that the oracle installer never had asked me for a database size. From what I remember of earlier versions it had asked this question.
This morning I have to transfer the spfile this morning to dbs directory to start it up.
Is this the correct behavior not asking for the size now??
Let me know. I got six more to go.
regards,
al

Good Morning,
I just have a question. I just installed 10g on
solaris 10. While I was watching the installation
process I noticed that the oracle installer never had
asked me for a database size. From what I remember
of earlier versions it had asked this question. I do not remember any Oracle installer asking this question.
I do remember the installer allowing you to override the individual tablespace / datafile sizes if you went through a custom install - as Werner indicates.

The default search order for the initialization file is gven in the Admin guide here
>

now??
Let me know. I got six more to go.This is scary. This raises my eternal question of "are we using the correct definition of database?" that results from the confusion between database and schema.
Are these duplicates of the same database? If so, you want to investigate the use of templates in DBCA.

Silent Client installation 10g

Hello,
Is it possible to run a silent installation for oracle 10g CLIENT INSTALLATION ?
Thanks

The docs are at http://tahiti.oracle.com.
I found the answer in less than one second ... you can too. <g>

Installation 10g on vista

I did following :
1) already downloaded from website
2) click on setup.exe
and zip file has been unzip then ask starter database ORCL password : Confirm pasword :
3) dialog box with following error :
Abnormal program trmination. An internal error has occured. please provide following files to oracle support:
"Unknown"
"Unknown"
"Unknown" Ok.
4) another dialog box showing following :
Installation is prgress .........
Showing graph for progressing ........................
finally i comeout from these all , Now How i can install ?? what about registry ?

Lets go back to the beginning first.
1. Did you download and read the installation docs (http://docs.oracle.com) or read the file included with the installation?
2. Did you check to see if your version of Vista is supported (you didn't seem to think it important to mention here)?
3. What did Oracle write to the installation log file?
People that follow the directions and have a supported operating system almost never have installation issues.

Installation 10g on Windows XP Home Edition

When I try to install 10g on my Windows XP Home Edition, I get a error message, "oui.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close." Whats that all about?

Windows XP Home is not a supported platform for Oracle. I have heard some people have been able to get it to work but usually not without a lot of tinkering. General rule of thumb -- Windows anything Home edition is not supported by Oracle. My suggestion is if you have the disk space, install VMware and put a Linux distro like Centos in it and install Oracle on that. Or go the dual boot route.

Client Installation 10g

I have tried, several times, to install a 10g client on my PC (Windows XP)
Everytime it fails at the configuration part of the install. For some reason, the oraslax10.dll file is missing. The error message suggests reinstalling the application, but this hasn't worked.
Any suggestions very welcome
Cheers

Logfile location with silent installation 10g database

Hi,
I'm silently installing 10g database.
What I want to do is to do something with the logfile once the install is finished.
Is there a parameter where you can specify the location of the logfile?

Does somebody have a working response.file?

Listener service not starting after installation (10g on WinXP)

Hi!
I installed 10.2.0.1 on a Windows XP machine, but for some reason the listener service does not start up. If I start the service from the Windows service control panel I get:

Hi Florian,
my understanding was that on Windows ORACLE_HOME is stored in the registry.
I have a correct path to my Oracle home directory under "HKLM\Software\Oracle\KEY_OraDB10g_home1\ORACLE_HOME".
Following your suggestion, I added a Windows environment variable "ORACLE_HOME" that points to the Oracle home directory, rebooted and tried to start the service again, but nothing changed.
