Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: oracle 10g --linux install issues
Harv,
This is a decent link:
http://staff.in2.hr/denis/oracle/10g1install_fedora1_en.html This guide
specifically covers installing Oracle 10G on Fedora, which is the extension
of Red Hat Linux open source project, of course.
Aside from this, Fedora has the yum command (similar to Solaris pkg-get utility) that is very useful for viewing and updating installed packages:
http://www.fedorafaq.org/#installsoftware
I should mention I have also leveraged the Red Hat Network Alert Notification Tool 2.1.2, similar to the "Windows Update" utility offering a desktop GUI providing all the functionality of rpm, yum, or, in the case of Solaris, pkg-get.
I am generally a recluse these days but felt inspired to toss you this mediocre assist. Also, I in using the above Fedora utilities I have experienced similar issues with potentially corrupt/unsigned packages, etc.
Time to return to GTA Vice City, my real passion.

PS Oracle 10G is not yet certified on Fedora but I have been running it for several months without any issues although this very minor "hack" is required to fool the OUI:
...have to make Oracle installer think that we have one of the supported distributions: Create a backup of your /etc/redhat-release file, an changeits contents:
# cp /etc/redhat-release /etc/redhat-release.orig # echo "Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS release 3 (Taroon)" >/etc/redhat-release

Hi,

glibc-devel-2.3.2-5.i386.rpm cpp-3.2.2-5.i386.rpm
glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.10.i386.rpm binutils-2.13.90.0.18-9.i386.rpm
warning: gcc-3.2.2-5.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e error: glibc-devel-2.3.2-5.i386.rpm cannot be installed error: glibc-kernheaders-2.4-8.10.i386.rpm cannot be installederror: binutils-2.13.90.0.18-9.i386.rpm cannot be installed
