Well, what part of Not enough memory is left for your host operating system. Please select a smaller amount. you didn't understand? You have over-allocated memory to your virtual machine than you could and its not allowed . Solution, allocate a smaller memory.
Now that said, what linux installation has to do with Database General Forum?

Can not ping oracle linux vm in Virtual Box from my host
Hy
I have setup oracle linux 7 on virtual box including vboxadditions.
But I can not ping this maschine from outside ( it works for my other vm oel 5.8 )
I did systemctl stop filewall.service
Here my Network konfiguration inside my oel7 vm:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-enp0s8
TYPE=Ethernet
BOOTPROTO=none

Can anyone help?
Thanks
Peter SchlaegerHi,
Before discussing the network configuration of Oracle Linux 7 (By the way; it seams correct), lets talk about the VirtualBox network configuration, So the Network adapter of your VM can be attached to {NAT, Bridged Adapter, Internal Network, Host-only Adapter, ...}, what is the Adapter attached to your NIC?
Make sure the Network Adapter is the same as the your other VM (OL 5.8).
Best regards -
I have gotten linux running in a virtual box.
However, it wants as user name/password. I don't know what it is or how to set it up.
I did not see any opportunity to set up an account when I was installing it.
I tried various reasonable guess (like my oracle acct), but no luck
So how do I set this up? Is there some place in 'virtual box' to set up accounts. I'm running on my home machine, so no big need for security ...
-Traruh
PS. Is there a better forum for this question?The Linux installation typically asks to set a password for the root account during the installation. It also asks to create a non privileged user in the final post installation after the first reboot, provided yo have installed the graphical user interface. It is not possible to tell based on your information what you installed or what you are prompted for. If you are prompted to logon, you can use the username "root" and use the password you set during the installation.
The root account is a built-in account on all Linux/Unix systems with all privileges. If you have not used Linux before I suggest to search for beginners information and tutorials in Google; there are plenty.
Virtualbox does not manage any computer accounts. Your Windows login usually has nothing to do with your VM guest OS. If you forgot the root password of your Linux guest OS, you can reset it booting into "single" user mode. -
Calling DB from a guest OS in Virtual Box
Hi all,
I have a Oracle Db 10g installed in my windows vista.
I have also a linux installed in virtual box.
I tried to connect from the guest os (linux) but no way.
I used the 'ping' command and it work 4/4.
SO, should I configure the listner of the Data base to accept externel connection. If yes how??
the enterprise edition which i have is academic one (I am student)
plz help and sorry for my bad english
ThanksThanks for the reply! I am planning on putting it on Mac hardware, and understand the licensing requirements of OS X server.
What I'm mostly interested in is if it will actually work on XenServer and if so, then if the performance is worthwhile (ie: it performs nearly as well as being on the server natively). If the performance is poor, then I won't bother with XenServer and go with ESXi and probably won't virtualize my Mac hardware.
My original intention was to go with ESXi for multiple reasons. I wanted to be able to run the Cisco Nexus 1000v, but the licensing requirements with VMware for enterprise type features is completely outrageous and not practical for a SMB. -
SUN VIRTUAL BOX NETWORK CONECTION ISSUE
Hai frnds,
i have installed redhat linux in sun virtual box server and my host machine is windows where i have installed ssh clit.my aim is to access the redhat linux in sun virtual box from my ssh client installed in my windows.
when i installed sun virtual box it generated a ip of its own.hence i set the ipaddress of redhat linux existing in sun virtual box same to ip of sun virtual box.iam able to ping the server after logging in linux but iam unable to ping the redhat linux in sun virtual box from my host windows machine.After few seconds the connection gets terminated.
i have set the ip address for my windows machine and provided the ip of linux as the gateway for windows host.i also have a ethernet card .
when i give ipconfig in cmd it displays the ipadress of the linux(linux ip and sun virtual host ip are bsame) but there is no ip set for the windows host.it displays the message as media disconected .
ip of linux(sun virtual box):-192.168.0.1
mask:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.0.254
ip of windows set:192.168.0.2
mask:255.255.255.0
gateway:192.168.0.1
so please provide me any way to access the linux guest from my ssh client in windows.
I should be able to ping the guest linux from my host
help me to implement this

[SOLVED] Arch Linux Guest Virtual Box OSE problem
So I am installing my Arch Linux as a Guest in my Ubuntu partition, through Virtual Box OSE (3.2.8). I followed the wiki ( https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ar … lBox_Guest ) but still have an issue:
sudo pacman -S kernel26-headers xorg gcc make
sudo mount /dev/cdrom /mnt/cdrom
sudo /mnt/cdrom/VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
But It fails on Shared folders, and cannot recognize X:
:: Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions Kernel Modules [BUSY]
:: Building the main Guest Additions module [DONE]
:: Building the shared folder support module [FAIL]
(Look at /var/log/vboxadd-install.log to find otu what went wrong)
:: Warning: Unknown version of the X Window System installed. Not installing X Window System drivers.
:: Installing graphics libraries and desktop services components [Done]
/var/log/vboxadd-install.log states:
/tmp/vbox.0/vfsmod.c:406:9: error: unknown field 'clear_inode' specified in initalizer
/tmp/vbox.0/vfsmod.c:406:9 warning: initalization from incompatible pointer type.
Which is strange, because as far as I know, clear_inode is part of the linux headers.
Any idea why this is happening? Do I just need to update VirtualBox to a newer version?

Installing Oracle Linux 5.8 on Virtual Box
I'm trying to install Oracle Linux 5.8 on Virtual Box. I have downloaded V31120-01 and burned to the DVD, I think successfully.
However, when I start the Virtual machine, I get the Opening screen, "Oracle Linux" the little picture of the penguin guy, etc, so I think my DVD is good.
The screen says, "To install or upgrade in graphical mode, press the <enter> key." So I do.
Several lines of text flow across the screen, but then the process seems to stop with no prompt on what to do next or any indication that an error has occurred, it just stops.
The last lines I can see are:
ACPI: bus type pci registered
PCI: Using configuration type 1
ACPI: Interpreter enabled
ACPI: Using PIC for interrupt routing
ACPI: No dock devices found
ACPI: PCI Root Bridge [PCI0] (0000:00)

I'm not sure if it's waiting for some input from me, or if there is a problem, but nothing happens beyond this point until I power down the virtual machine.There is no need to burn a DVD because Virtualbox can directly mount and boot from the .iso image you downloaded. It is usually a good idea to check the md5 checksum of your download with the number provided by the download page to verify your download is not corrupted. There are no problems installing any version of Oracle Linux under Virtualbox provided you have the right hardware. I suggest to check the Virtualbox documentation.

Virtual Box Appliance request! Linux + XE + Apex 4.0
Hello,
Can anyone provide me a Virtual Box image with a complete installation of Oracle XE + Apex 4.0 on Linux OS?
I am trying to set up a testing environment, but I can't get APEX 4.0 to work on an ORACLE XE database installed on Centos 5.5. (all in a Virtual Box image)...
Please...
Regards,
GeorgeI posted my problem on the APEX forum here: Apex 4.0 install on Oracle XE (on Linux) issue!
Actually, I am trying to complete my installation (Centos 5.5 + XE + Apex 4.0) for some weeks now. I ran into different, undocumented problems (I'll share them with you some time) and the last one is just the last drop in an ocean of compatibility problems. I'm sorry I chose Linux as an OS, I'm 5 minutes away from buying a Windows 2003 server license.
Even if I can succesfuly complete my installation, I'm thinking that a repository with the preinstalled VMbox images for learning+testing purposes would make my life a lot easier! I'm trying to migrate my APEX applications to 4.0, but until now I just wasted a lot of time on installing it!

UEK R2 and Virtual Box Linux additions
Hello
thanks for the support from Avi Miller I was able to install the UEK R2 on OL 6.2 VM.
It all worked well but the Virtual Box 4.1.10 Linux Guest Additions stopped working properly after UEK R2 was installed and the VM rebooted (screen resolution to be exact).
So I simply re-installed VB Linux guest additions after the UEK R2 was installed, for the second time.
It seemed to work OK even though I did receive a UEK related warning message during VB Linux Guest additions installation .....
Once I rebooted after VB Guest Additions were re-installed it seems to be working again.
I am just curious if there is a recommended order procedure re installing UEK R2 inside a VB 4.1.10 VM guest ?
Should I rebuild the VM from stratch and first install UEK R2 before installing VB Linux Guest Additions and then install VB Linux Guest Additions after UEK R2 is updated?
Does the installation order matter?
I am concerned that VB Linux Guest additions somehow corrupts parts of UEK R2 since it's not aware of UEK R2 existance?
Perhaps there wiill be a new release of the VB Linux Guest Additions for Oracle Linux 64-bit that is compatible with UEK R2 ?
many thanks!thanks!
In this case I think I have done the right thing "by accident"! 8^)
Here is what I have done: (note the warning message re kernel headers not found.....)
[root@YURIOL62 init.d]# ./vboxadd setup
Removing existing VirtualBox DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
Removing existing VirtualBox non-DKMS kernel modules [ OK ]
Building the VirtualBox Guest Additions kernel modules
The headers for the current running kernel were not found. If the following
module compilation fails then this could be the reason.
The missing package can be probably installed with
yum install kernel-uek-devel-2.6.39-100.5.1.el6uek.x86_64
Building the main Guest Additions module [ OK ]
Building the shared folder support module [ OK ]
Building the OpenGL support module [ OK ]
Doing non-kernel setup of the Guest Additions [ OK ]
You should restart your guest to make sure the new modules are actually used
I hope this is all OK.
My next step is to install Oracle RDBMS 11.2.0.3 (i.e. Grid+ASM+RDBMS) based on the new UEK R2 and new oracle validated replacement rpm on OL 6.2....

Installation of linux on Virtual Box
Hi everyone. Thanks in advance for the help.
I have installed Virtual Box on my computer, no I need to install Linux and then on Linux I need oracle. I am doping this all because I want to become a DBA and unfortunately I do not have a lot of money to pay to the Training Centers. I recently downloaded and installed Linux Mint v14. Later my friend said this version of Linux does not support Oracle. Can any-you of you please let me know, what I need to download from http://www.centos.org/?What does this have to do with java?
And why do you think you need linux to learn Oracle? -

Need help installing Virtual box Windows VM's
I am installing virtual box on wife's mac. I got the instructions here: http://osxdaily.com/2011/09/04/internet-explorer-for-mac-ie7-ie8-ie-9-free/
I did it previously and it all worked well. Recently the windows session license expired so I reinstalled that portion and it worked for about a week. Then the Virtual box program just stopped working. So I uninstalled the virtual box and am attempting to reinstall all components.
First step is install Virtual box from here: https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads This went ok andvirtual box runs but there are no VM's.
There is then a script to install the windows VM's. It is failing.
Script is accessed by copyinf this command into terminal:

This is the error I get. It seems there is a file that already exists but I'm stumped as to what to do.

Boot from Win7 DVD and create two partitions, then install Windows7 on one of them. During the install Windows will create a 3rd partition to boot from. You will now have:
sda1 - 100MB - Windows Boot - boot flag
sda2 - 50GB - Windows 7 - no flags
sda3 - 50GB - Unpartitioned Space - no flags
Next boot into Arch and choose to manually partition the drives using cfdisk, using the unfinished space create 3 logical partitions of the sizes 100MB, 2GB, and 50GB. Mark the 100MB one you just created with a boot flag and unmark the 100MB one Windows created.
Now you should have:
sda1 - 100MB - Windows Boot - no flags
sda2 - 50GB - Windows 7 - no flags
sda3 - 50GB - Unpartitioned Space - no flags
sda5 - 100MB - Linux Boot - boot flag
sda6 - 2GB - Linux Swap - no flags
sda7 - 50GB - Arch - no flags
Click OK/Confirm/Write and then continue to the next step - File Systems and Mountpoints.
Here you need to set the FS for sda5,6,7 and make sure not to touch sda1,2. Choose ext2 for sda5, swap for sda6, and ext3 for sda7. You will also be asked for mountpoints. Pick "/boot" for sda5 and "/" for sda7. Click OK/Confirm/Write and then continue to install Arch like normal, when you get to installing the bootloader make sure to install it on /dev/sda and uncomment the Windows part of the grub/menu.lst file.
Reboot the system and you are done -
Installing ArchLinx+Guest Additions in Virtual Box(error during guest)
The Arch Linux install seemed to go through smoothly. I installed it using the wiki page, rebooted, and logged in as root. I am installing this for a class, so trying to follow the instructions to do so. Next, we are supposed to install 'Guest Additions' for Virtual box using the instructions below:
Now, you should install "Guest Additions" for VirtualBox. Guest additions allows you to share files between host and guest systems. This is very convenient for development as you will need to copy files back and forth between the host and guest operating systems. You can download Guest Additions at *link*.
You need to start the virtual machine before you can continue installing Guest Additions. To do that, just select your VM name from the list on the left hand side in VirtualBox and click Start. After logging into Arch Linux, you should mount this ISO image just as you had mounted the Arch Linux ISO file. You can then mount the cdrom inside the Guest OS by doing:
mkdir /mnt/cdrom
mount -t iso9660 /dev/cdrom0 /mnt/cdrom
Now install the guest additions by doing:
cd /mnt/cdrom
sh ./VBoxLinuxAdditions-x86.run
This will compile and install the kernel modules necessary for Guest Additions functionality. Please note that if you
recompile your own kernel (later as a part of project requirements), you will have to run this again so that the modules are
compiled and installed for the new kernel too.
Under settings for VBox, I mounted the Guest Additions image file, started Arch Linux, logged in as root, and followed the instructions above. I was able to do all of the above, but when I excute the last line, I am given this message:
http://img132.imageshack.us/img132/3971/linuxd.png
I have no idea where to go from here, and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Also, I feel like I have installed Arch Linux incorrectly. All the videos and pictures I see show a GUI type interface, but all I am presented with is a text-based interface. When I boot it up, it asks me to log in, and I am then taken to the command line, but I don't see the same GUI interface everyone else seems to have. Is this normal for a basic Arch Linux install? Thanks in advance.Arch has no GUI until you install one. Some people don't want a GUI, so it's left to the user. The base install has only a command line interface.
You should probably read the Beginners Guide.
In case you missed them, there's two short articles, also on the wiki that might help you understand Arch, Arch Linux and The Arch Way -
