Oracle Linux and Java 7u10

Hi all,
I installed Oracle Linux Server 6.3 selecting "software Development System" (java 1.6.0 comes with it).
but I need to use Java 1.7
So I downloaded jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
when I try to install it, I get the following error.
Unpacking JAR files...
     rt.jar...
Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/rt.pack
     jsse.jar...
Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/jsse.pack
     charsets.jar...
Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/charsets.pack
     localedata.jar...
Error: Could not open input file: /usr/java/jre1.7.0_10/lib/ext/localedata.pack
I can't uninstall java 1.6 because other rpm uses it.
Can someone tell me what the "proper" way to install Oracle Linux and Java 1.7 should be?
OR is there a Oracle Linux Server 6.4 coming out soon with Java 1.7 as its default package set ;-)
thanks in advance,
c.w.

You can ignore the errors. The files named in the error lines do not exist in the rpm package, but are there as .jar files
The following works under Oracle Linux 6.3 x86_64 (and probably other versions).
1. Open the following URL in a web browser on your PC:
<pre>
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html
</pre>
2. Click the JDK download button, accept the license agreement and download the JDE rpm package.
3. Copy the following file to your Oracle Linux server (SFTP):
<pre>
jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
</pre>
4. Login as root and use the YUM utility to install the RPM package.
<pre>
# yum install ./jdk-7u10-linux-x64.rpm
</pre>
5. Register the new installed java version, then change your default Java:
<pre>
# alternatives --install /usr/bin/java java /usr/java/jdk1.7.0_10/bin/java 2
# alternatives --config java
</pre>
Display your default Java version:
<pre>
# java -version
java version "1.7.0_10"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_10-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.6-b04, mixed mode)

Differences between Oracle Linux and CentOS

Dear ALL
I need differences between Oracle Linux and Cent OS, which is the better OS to install Oracle11gR2.
Kindly send me the benefits and percentage if anybody can...
Thanks.

11gR2 is not certified to be installed on CentOS, so from that perspective alone, OEL is the only choice.

Pro*C on Oracle Linux and 11g R2

Hello everyone
I am unable to find Oracle documentation on how to use make and compile and link ProC programs on Oracle Linux and Oracle 11g R2*
The Pro*C manuals for 11g R2 refer me to the "operating system specific manuals" for compiling and linking and make instructions but I can not find such manuals anywhere.
I looked here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10825/toc.htm
Can anyone point me to the documentation on how to compile/link/precompile/make-utility Pro*C programs on Oracle/RedHat Linux, please?
Many thanks!

Honestly having used pro*c for years ( not lately ) the windows install
was always marginal... try the linux version much better and you don't
have to taylor you *.cfg files like previous versions... it work right out
of the box... the install doc stated you might have to update your
C++ libraries...

I think that icon should not be only one.
For instance,I am Pro (I have 570 points) and "Oracle ACE".
Therefore I hope that My icons are "Pro" and "Oracle ACE".

One option here could be a signature line - that lay bares one's claim to fame, knowledge and experience. This is often standardise by community agreement on some web forums (the gamer ones often include clan tags and titles with h/w specs). Or something like GeekCode.

32 Bit Installation or Oracle Linux and Oracle Database 10g

I have an old E-Machine that I wanted to put Oracle Linux and Oracle Database Express 11G on. I was just wanting to do some testing and development on the system. I'm pretty sure the machine is 32bit.
I just burned a copy of 32 bit Oracle Linux onto a CD. Is there a version of Oracle Database Express that will run on it?
It seems like there is only a 64 bit version of Oracle Express Database 11g. Is Oracle Database Express 10g installable on Oracle Linux 32 bit?
Let me know! Thanks in an advance.

One (or two) caveats with the 10g version, XE can not be patched and the 10.2.0.1 XEs were created before the current daylight savings time rules went into effect.
If you have access to My Oracle Support there is a method to get updated timezone files for the oracle binaries, you need at least version 4 of the DST files. I've got the MOS docIDs somewhere let us know if needed and I'll dig 'em up.

Oracle 8i And Java

I have JDK 1.5 Update 1 installed in my system and have Oracle 8.1.7 database . I have successfully connected both using ODBC data sources in my Windows XP SP2. Can i connect them using URL address, like we can do in Oracle 9i and later databases of Oracle.
thanks in advance
Sujeet

hi all!
by this im stopping my question as i solved it today. i was not using the url format, so was the problem giving starnge messages.
solution :
if using JDK 1.4.2 download ojdbc14.jar and set it on ur classpath. url format is as shown below :
jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:<port1521>:<sid>
write the following sample code.........
import java.sql.*;
class Preeti
     public static void main(String[] args) throws SQLException
          Connection con;
          DatabaseMetaData meta;
          String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@sujeet:1521:ram";
          String user = "scott";
          String password = "tiger";
          DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
          con = DriverManager.getConnection(url, user, password);
          Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
          ResultSet rst = stmt.executeQuery("select * from emp");
          meta = con.getMetaData();
          System.out.println("Got Results............");
          System.out.println("DBMS : " + meta.getDatabaseProductName());
          //System.out.println("Version : " + meta.getDatabaseMajorVersion());
          System.out.println("JDBC Driver Name : " + meta.getDriverName());
          System.out.println("JDBC Driver Version : " + meta.getDriverVersion());
          while(rst.next())
               System.out.println(rst.getString(1));
          con.close();
}

Diff between oracle linux and oracle enterprise linux?

hi all,
i am new to this flavor of Linux. I know oracle linux has red hat source, but i am confused about the difference betweek oracle linux which comes in versions 4 (upto update 8) and 5 (latest update being 5).
i need to install oracle enterprise linux at a client place, so i gota know the difference.
Should i be installing oracle Linux first and then run the rpm of "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel"? or is the "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" only for customers who require this kernal on oracle linux update 5 x86_64?
thanks

From what I understand Oracle Enterprise Linux (OEL) is a rebranded version of Red hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL).
Oracle Linux (OL) is OEL plus Oracle optimization and custom, newer kernel. OL with Oracle "Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel" is available as x86_64 only and was introduced based on OEL or RHEL 5.5.
You can install OEL 5.4 and easily upgrade to OEL 5.5, PMFJI, but can you point me to docs on how to make that upgrade? The timing of this msg on the forum was exquisite, as I started looking at that just today. I have an OEL 5.4 installation and would much rather upgrade to 5.5 than to have to rebuild from scratch.
I did a yum install kernel with the 5.5 version of the public-yum-el5.repo. That went without a hitch and now reports "2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1" where I was 2.6.18-164.el5, but I also see
[root@myserver ~]# uname -a
Linux myserver 2.6.32-100.0.19.el5 #1 SMP Fri Sep 17 17:51:41 EDT 2010 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
[root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/enterprise-release
Enterprise Linux Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Carthage)
[root@myserver ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4 (Tikanga)Bottom line is that I am charged with updating the kernel to a 2.6 version newer than 19 Sep, or applying a patch for the compat_alloc_user_space() function, and am not sure exactly how to proceed from here.
if you like or start to install from version 5.5, and then install OL 5.5 by downloading the Oracle public yum repository and follow the instructions at http://public-yum.oracle.com

Oracle Timestamp and java.util.date

Greetings,
【Enviroment】
oracle 10g Express
jdbc 10.2.0.1.0 thin driver
windows Xp professinal
【problem】
I fetched a value of timestamp.
And I faced An Error that "java.sql.SQLException: Cannot set lastup_dt: incompatible types."
We define data type of lastup_dt is timestamp on Oracle.
And We define the data type of lastup_dt of javaBean is java.util.date.
And Ocurr SQLException at result = rsh.handle(rs);
How Can I avoid it?
public Object query(Connection conn, String sql, Object[] params,
ResultSetHandler rsh) throws SQLException {
PreparedStatement stmt = null;
ResultSet rs = null;
Object result = null;
try {
stmt = this.prepareStatement(conn, sql);
this.fillStatement(stmt, params);
rs = this.wrap(stmt.executeQuery());
result = rsh.handle(rs);
} catch (SQLException e) {
this.rethrow(e, sql, params);
} finally {
try {
close(rs);
} finally {
close(stmt);
return result;
Any help I appreciate it.
Thank you.

As long as you have the long representation of the time you can create a new java.util.Date:
new java.util.Date(ts.getTime())

Oracle Linux and Windows Active Directory

I am looking for a good article on joining an Oracle Linux server to a Windows Active directory domain.
We are primarily a Windows shop but need to bring up a couple of Oracle Linux servers (VM Server and VM Manager). I would like to use the existing Windows domain controller for user authentication.

I don't have experience in joining a Linux system with Windows AD, and it generally does not sound like the best idea to me, but since Oracle Enterprise Linux is a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the solution you are looking for could be called Winbind.
Perhaps the following links are useful:

Version Control for Oracle Reports and Java

Hi
I have a Reports and Java development enviroment and I need version control for both. In JDeveloper there is only support for CVS and SVN. Does report have support for CVS and SVN?. What can I choose to offer Java and Reports version control?
Regards,
Néstor Boscán

Hello,
You might find neXtep Designer helpful, depending on what you need. It is a free database development environment based on the concept of version control. You will work in a dedicated version control repository in which you can import any existing database through reverse synchronization. Once imported, you will gain control over the lifecycle of your database model all along your developments. The tool will generate SQL scripts resulting from the delta between any 2 versions, allowing you to automate SQL generation. It also provide a delivery mechanism and an installer program which can automate deployment of the changes on a target database.
The product is based on the Eclipse platform and provides features like graphical data model, dependency management, SQL clients, powerful SQL editors for stored code development and currently supports Oracle, MySql and PostgreSql. You will find more information here :
http://www.nextep-softwares.com
Also have a look at the WIKI for more detailed information about the product, the concepts and the reasons why we created neXtep.
Hope this helps,
Christophe

FYI: Oracle Linux and devfs

This message is for users of Oracle Linux who may be thinking of running Richarg Gooch's devfs (part of the 2.4 kernels and available as a patch to the 2.2 kernels).
Oracle cannot be installed, successfully, on a system running devfs most likely because the Oracle Installer cannot correctly calculate the available file space due to changes in the naming of the file systems.
devfs CAN be run once Oracle is installed.

3113 - end of communciation file
means that you Oracle Database can't allocate the initial resource to startup, like semaphores or shared memory.
Check with Oracle Install Instruction for linux and the parameters of your kernel.
For example Mandrake 7.2 kernel-workstation mode was compiled with sufficients resources, in the other hand Mandrake 7.2-secure kernel doesn't have enough semaphores or shared memory to run Oracle DB.
Look at /usr/src/linux directory to check these parameters and re-compile the kernel.
Best regards, Marcelo.

Oracle Lite and Java 1.3

Some preliminary testing of Java 1.3 against Oracle Lite 8.1.5 causes an fatal crash that won't allow me to debug through and suspends both the VM and my debugger/IDE for Java.
Can anyone confirm if it is possible to run Olite and Java 1.3? Same code works great in OLite and Java 1.2.2, and crash doesn't seem to be OS specific (tested under NT and 2000).
Cheers, DJ

When you put your code in a try block and print the exception, what does it say:
String driver = getDriverFromConfigurationFile();
try
Class.forName(driver);
catch(ClassNotFoundException cnfe)
System.err.println(cnfe);
Second option is to use DataSource instead.

Oracle Linux and Automatic Installation of Oracle Related Packages

G'day,
I recently decided to check out Oracle's Unbreakable Linux as I am/was thinking of switching to it for all my company's database deployments. What originally attracted me to Oracle Linux was that I though there would have been a kickstart, package or in the GUI install, a check box to install all of Oracle's dependencies.
When I installed it first, I manually selected a bunch of relevant packages, then installed any missing packages manually via a local YUM repository that I had made. Alas however, Oracle did not install correctly. So, I reinstalled, this time as a full install. Oracle then worked like a charm.
I also noticed, when editing /etc/sysctl.conf and /etc/securetty/limits.conf that these files had basically all ready been configured.
So, my question is, as I have had no luck using the search functionality here, is anyone aware of a kickstart argument, or an Oracle package that will install and in turn by way of dependencies, install all the necessary Oracle bits and pieces? Ideally, I would like to do this by way of kickstart as to automate as much of the process as possible.
If I can do this, then with some further testing, I will make the switch to Oracle's Linux for our Oracle deployments.
Cheers,
Conor

Yes, there is a great package called oracle-validated that is available that will pre-configured Oracle Enterprise Linux for installation using the Oracle Universal Installer. It ensures that things like sysctl.conf are all correct.
It should be available in the base download, so you can test it out. :)

Oracle, linux and the AS400

In a previous message I asked whether an AS400 was a platform that could run
Oracle. Apparently the answer is "no", it is one of the few systems that
Oracle doesn't run on because IBM is pushing their competing product DB2
running under OS400.
I found out yesterday, that IBM is making a big push for AS400 users to
install Linux on the AS400. I know that there are versions of Oracle for
Linux (obviously :-) ).
In terms of Oracle for Linux, will it run on a AS400 running Redhat Linux?
Anyone have a clue? (Anyone from Oracle who can make a guess? :-) )
Thanks.
