Hi,
I have installed oracle enterprise linux version 5.4 on sun virtual box.I want to install oracle 10g,so I downloaded oracle -validated-1.0.0-5.e15i.386.rpm for oracle requird updates.I am trying to run the oracle -validated-rpm using yum install command.But I am getting the following error
no package ./oracle-validated-1.0.0-5.e15.i386.rpm available.
How to solve that? I downloaded the oracle validated rpm file to desktop.
