InstallingOracle11gR2onUbuntu9.10
PostedonMarch14,2010

Finally,Ivegoteverythinginplaceforthebigoneinstalling11gR2onmyUbuntuserver.

NOTEifyouvestumbledacrossthispostinsearchofinstructionsforinstallingOracleXE11g
onUbuntu,youcanfindinstallationstepshere.

Asfarastheserverisconcerned,IvepostedoneverythingIvedonesinceIinstalleditontothe
machine.
TheprerequisitesforthisOracleinstallationwere:

Installingtheserverandsettingupssh
TunnelingXoverSSH
IalsosetupaSAMBAshareontheserver.ThisisnotdirectlyrelevanttotheOraclesetupbut
Iveincludedalinktoithereasitservestocompletethepictureofthestateoftheserverbefore
Istartedtheinstallation.ItalsohasasectiononmountingaUSBstickontheserver,whichmay
berelevantwhenitcomestotransferringtheOraclefilesontotheserver.
WhilstImmentioninglinks,IshouldacknowledgethehelpfulinformationIgotfromhereand
especiallyhere.

WhilstImhere,IprobablydontneedtomentionthatOracleisntexactlysupportedonUbuntu
atthetimeofwriting,soIassumethat,ifyouareplanningtogodownthisroute,itsforyour
ownedificationandamusement.Ifyourplanningtosetupaproductiondatabaseenvironment,
thenyoureallyshouldbedoingsoonasupportedOS.

Onefinal,butpertinentpointtonoteisthat,likemanyofmyrecentadventureswithUbuntu

However,Imakenoclaimstobeingalinuxexpert.Thestepsthatfollowworkedforme.That

Unfortunately,theresnorpmpackageforthisversion,soyouneedtodownload11grelease2
fromhere.
AsImrunningthe32bitserver,IgottheLinuxx86versionofOracleDatabase11gRelease2(
11.0.2.0.1.0)

Asyoullnoticefrommypreviousposts,theserverwaspronetogetalittleunhappywhen
copyinglargefilesorlargeamountsofdatagenerallytoitfromanexternaldevice.However,
extractingthecompresseddownloadfilesworkedfine.
Toachievethis,Idownloadedtherequiredfilesontoatrustymemorystick,mounteditonthe

German,

IassumethattheerrorisTNS12560TNS:ProtocolAdaptererror.

Ifso,Idsuggestyoumighttrythefollowing:

Ontheclient:
first,checktoseeifthe$ORACLE_SIDenvironmentvariableisset.Ifnot,
thenyouneedtospecifythedatabasenameyourconnectingto.So,inTerminal,
youwouldneedtotype:
sqlplususername/password@database

second,makesurethattheentryyouhaveforthedatabaseinthe
make
tnsnames.ora(in$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin)iscorrecti.e.itspointing
tothecorrecthostandhasthecorrectdatabasesid.

Ontheserver:

checkthatthelistenerisupandrunningforyourinstance.Interminal:

lsnrctlstatus

Hopefully,thismaygiveyousomeclueastowhatisgoingwrong.
