Oracle: Database for Debian
| |
Debian Packages:
libc6-dev
binutils
Installing Oracle on Debian has involved obtaining the Oracle tar
file, setting up an Oracle user and some Oracle groups, and running
the Oracle installation software. We include here a collection of
information for installing Oracle 8 and Oracle 10g, with some pointers
regarding Oracle 9i. The good news is that Oracle now (as of March
2006) have an apt repository for the unstable (sid) distribution, and
have provided the Oracle XE packaged for Debian. It is available from
https://oss.oracle.com/debian/.
Additional information is also available from
https://openacs.org/doc/openacs-4/oracle.html and
https://frits.homelinux.com/wordpress/?p=9.
To install Oracle XE you first need to tell wajig where to obtain the
packages from:
$ wajig editsources
-> deb https://oss.oracle.com/debian unstable main non-free
|
Then install the libaio
package--since version 10 of
Oracle on GNU/Linux asynchronous IO has been the default ``out of the box.''
Next, install the appropriate Oracle package. If you want just a
client, then:
$ wajig install oracle-xe-client
|
To install the usual Oracle XE server:
$ wajig install oracle-xe
|
And to install a version of the server that supports needing multibyte
character sets inside the database:
$ wajig install oracle-xe-universal
