| Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Installation On Fedora 16 (F16) - A brief guide to installing Oracle 11g Release 2 (11.2) on Fedora 16 (F16). |
lesio said... What about Asm on Fedora ? Possible ? |
Tim... said... ASM Require the Grid Infrastructure. This is quite a fussy beast. I'm sure it is possible, but I would never bother with it. If I were doing something useful like ASM or RAC I would use Oracle Linux.Probably the only real thing I would use Fedora for is installing an Oracle Client. :) Cheers Tim... |
Vasanth said... I have installed all the packages you have mentioned.But, the prerequisite check fails for these : libaio-0.3.105 compat-libstdc++-33-3.2.3 libaio-devel-0.3.105 libgcc-3.4.6 libstdc++-3.4.6 unixODBC-2.2.11 unixODBC-devel-2.2.11 pdksh-5.2.14 What could be the problem ? |
Tim... said... Hi.If you installed the package groups I did during the OS installation it should be fine. If not, you will need to install all the package I commented out also. Cheers Tim... |
RD said... THANK YOU LOTS FOR THE GUIDE!I need Oracle 11g for a course and had not been able to install it before. Now I followed your guide and everything OK. I ignored the installer complaining about the packages mentioned above by "vasanth". Notice that it oafishly requires the i386 packages. I also had a linker problem later during install and ignored it (clicked continue). FC16 / 64bit |
Tim... said... Hi.The i386 warnings are not a problem. That functionality is provided by the i686 packages. The link issue is a problem, but that only affect enterprise manager, not the main DB. Cheers Tim... |
RD said... Yes, it _should_ notice that the i686 packages are present.The DB started shortly after install - even EM worked fine, but since then I have not been able to restart it :-( I keep getting TNS-00515, TNS-00516, TNS-12546 ... when attempting to restart it. Tried out lots of things from forums but to no avail :-( Still, thanks. |
Tim... said... You would probably get better mileage out of running Oracle Linux 5.7 on a VM and installing Oracle on that. I only play with Fedora for fun. All my real instances are installed on VMs running OL5.7.Cheers Tim... |
