Installing Oracle10g XE on Linux Os

Hi,
I am new with Linux Os and have to install oracle 10g Express Edition on Red Hat Linux Os for a customer. So before proceeding, I need some guidelines.
1) which Linux(freeware) flavor should I install ?
2) is there any virtual enviornment available for Linux Os on which I can install 10g Express Edition database ?
3) If available, is there any difference in using the Linux Os in Virtual enviornment and actual installing Linux ? will there be any difference in installing database and configuration for both the cases?
4) need download link for latest version of Red Hat Linux setup
Regards

first of all: PLEASE mark questions as answered and helpful/correct.
There are a lot of linux distributions available. At work we always use RedHat/CentOS. CentOS for example is binary compatible with RHEL. It's available from www.centos.org. You will also find a lot of installations guides for Oracle XE and CentOS on google.
All official Orace XE documentation is available at http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage
You can download rpms from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/express-edition/downloads/102xelinsoft-102048.html

On Linux/Unix Oracle does not start automatically at machine reboot. You have to create an autostart script to do that. See Re: Starting Oracle Databases on Startup of Server

Oracle's Universal Installer is a X-Windows/X11 application. It needs a x-server process to connect to - this process displays the GUI and deals with the mouse and keyboard interaction to the GUI.
Your error says that there is no x-server that can handle the display you are trying to create by launching the installer.
You need to read up on how to start and connect to x-servers. The easiest would be installing vncserver, ssh into the server as oracle, run the command "+vncserver+", supply a password and make a note of a display string.
On your client machine (e.g. Windows/Ubuntu/Mac) you download and install vncviewer - you then execute this viewer, and supply it with the display string and password to connect to to virtual Oracle GUI display on the server. Once connected, you run the installer inside that.

You should have searched a little bit, but my home server is an OpenSuSE 10.2/64 with Oracle 10g/64, so I will reply:
runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqsOpenSuSE 10.2/64 works really fine with 10g, installation is straightforward.

Problem in Installing Oracle 10g on Linux Enterprise Edition RHEL 3

Hi All,
I am trying to install Oracle10g Rel 2 on RHEL 3, but the installer fails for some OS packages (rpms I think) for being of older edition like gcc etc.
Whats the workaround for this or do I need to install for a more latest Version of Red Hat linux.
Do advise.....
Regards,
Gaurav S.

1. you can upgrade the packages (better option)
2. you can start installer with -ignoreSysPrereqs

Install Oracle 10g on Linux RH with existing Oracle 9i

I have Oracle enterprise 9i running on a linux server.
Would i have any problem if I install Oracle10g for another db on the same server.
What are the issues I should consider in order to avoid damage of the existing 9i db
Thanks,
Odette

There is absolutely no problem if you have multiple oracle versions. Just beware of:
Inventory location. Backup the inventory, in case something goes completely wrong, this is a usefull mean to perform a clean deinstall. If other version corrupts the inventory you have a valid backup copy.
Oracle 10g installer is different from the 9i installer, use oui provided at install media, do not use already installed oui.
When starting services, oracle will try to use 1521 default listener port. It can listen to all instances, even if they are from previous releases, it is advised to use the 10g listener. I would reccomend you, however to use a different port, this way you can perform several tests without messing with current 9i configuration.

Installing Oracle10g XE software only

Hi,
Oracle10g XE
Linux Fedora14
I have downloaded the .rpm package of oracle10g XE from oracle website for Linux Os
I want to install oracle10g XE software only on Linux Fedora14 without creating the starter database, how it can done ?

What you mean by "starter database" ?
You like have database without sample HR schema ?
I think that is not possible install option.
But that is only one schema, and you can drop it after install if you do not need it.

How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster

Dear all:
please advice How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster service ..
thanks ,,

Without RAC, you can only have one instance manage the database. One instance = one set of processes communicating via IPC.
Unless you know of a way to have processes use memory-based IPC across nodes, you need to pick a node and install & run the database software on that node.

Error while installing developer 10g on linux suse 10.0

Hi All,
This error appears while installing developer 10g on linux suse 10.0
http://img179.imageshack.us/my.php?image=errorso9.png

Try locate (using find command for example) the libjvm.so file (I assume that is located somewhere under $ORACLE_HOME (probably jdk or jre directory)). If you locate the path where this library resides, try to add that path to $LD_LIBRARY_PATH enviroment variable.
Use copy&paste method (for error message) rather than link to image.
It is much quicker operation and it may help to other people because they be able to find this thread via search engine.

Error while installing OWB on Redhat Linux

Hi,
I installed Oracle database on Linux , while installing oracle i got error
error while writing to directory /tmp/OraInstall<date> please ensure that this directory is writable and has atleast 60mb of disk space. Installation can not continue
then i did some thing and it went thru, now i am trying to install the OWB again i am getting the same error and i was browsing net past 2 days for a solution but i din't get one
while installing oracle i have not made any notes, that was my mistake
Please suggest me the possible solution or the Document which can guide me
Thanks in Advance
Suresh

Hi,
the problem is the logfile for the installation. Every oracle installtion writes a log file with this name in a predefined directory. Make the directory /tmp writable for oracle and extend the disk quota at least 60 MB.

Hi there!
The first thing you should do if you get ANY (almost) error when
installing Oracle Server in RedHat Linux v6,0 is to read this
document carefully: http://jordan.fortwayne.com/oracle/
After hours of struggle it finally worked for me :-)))))
Only two things to add here:
1) If you want to be able to connect to the Linux server
(telnet) and running utilities like sqlplus locally on the
server, you should copy the ".profile" file to the users home
directory, add the user to the group "dba" AND make sure that
the $ORACLE_HOME directory has execute permissions for members
of the "dba" group (mine had default ONLY permission for the
owner to execute).
2) The file "listener.ora" was (for some reason) written
with "oracle_sid" where it really should say the real SID name
that is in my case "ORCL".
I just can't thank the guy who wrote the step-by-step
Installation guide for Oracle on RedHat Linux enough... THANK
YOU!

Hi,
I think that Feedbak forum is not the best place for this problem.
You should ask this into
=> Installation Forum : Database Installation
or
=> Linux Forum : Generic Linux
Anyway, you can find an install doc here :
