And the Guide Includes All the Essentials Commands and Basic Screenshots of Installing Oracle 11g on Ubuntu 18.04. Especially relevant: Ubuntu-like Systems are Not in the List of Oracle 11g Database Supported OS So you should Be Careful and Use it at most for Development and Not As Production Database Server! Finally, the Process is somewhat Extended and Advanced and so it require a little confidence with the Command Line shell. Now Relax and Take the Time of Reading, Understanding and Executing Carefully the Instructions Contained here. 1.

Making Network Setup Then to Make Network Configuration Do: Get hostname: hostname Get IP: /sbin/ifconfig You will Find It Under the lo >> inet Section. Check if Hostname is Already into the Enabled Hosts File. cat /etc/hosts If It's Not Present then Insert it with: nano /etc/hosts Insert: Example: '127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain' Ctrl+Shift+v to Paste Content on nano Ctrl+x to Save and Exit from nano Editor :) Grant Connection to X Server xhost +myIP Example: # xhost +127.0.0.1 5.

Here above is a Valid Setup for a 8Gb RAM Size! If you need to Change first Check your Phisical Memory Size with: cat /proc/meminfo | grep MemTotal Then 'shmall' should be Set as: / 10 And instead 'shmmax' as: * 1024 / 2 For further Instructions See Oracle Documentation... If Exists then Comment out these lines below that Gives an Error #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-ip6tables 0 #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-iptables 0 #net.bridge.bridge-nf-call-arptables 0 Edit /etc/security/limits.conf file. nano /etc/security/limits.conf Add the following lines #### oracle User Settings 4 Oracle 11g ####/noracle soft nproc 2047/noracle hard nproc 16384/noracle soft nofile 1024/noracle hard nofile 65536/noracle soft stack 10240 Load the New Kernel Parameters /sbin/sysctl -p 6. Installing Packages Installing the Required Packages Some Package in Not Any More in the Actual Repo and so we have to Unpack some Legacy Stuff... From Trusty Universe: echo 'deb http://us.archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ trusty main universe' >> /etc/apt/sources.list.d/extra-trusty.list apt update Then Execute: sudo apt install lsb-cxx pdksh Disable Trusty Universe: sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/extra-trusty.list Again Restore the Repos with: apt update Finally, Install Remaining Dependencies: apt-get install alien autoconf automake autotools-dev binutils doxygen elfutils expat gawk gcc gcc-multilib g++-multilib libstdc++6:i386 ksh less libtiff5 libtiff5-dev lib32z1 libaio1 libaio-dev libc6-dev libc6-dev-i386 libc6-i386 libelf-dev libltdl-dev libodbcinstq4-1 libodbcinstq4-1:i386 libstdc++5 make openssh-server rlwrap rpm sysstat unixodbc unixodbc-dev x11-utils libpth-dev zlibc libglapi-mesa:i386 libglu1-mesa:i386 libqt4-opengl:i386 libpthread-workqueue0 libpthread-workqueue-dev libzthread-2.3-2 libzthread-dev libmotif-common 7. Making Symlinks Make Symlinks to Binaries and Libraries. Linking Binaries ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk ln -s /usr/bin/rpm /bin/rpm ln -s /usr/bin/basename /bin/basename Linking Libraries ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/lib64 cd /lib64 ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 . 8. Making Groups & User Add Groups and User Run: groupadd -g 502 oinstall groupadd -g 503 dba groupadd -g 504 oper groupadd -g 505 asmadmin useradd -u 502 -g oinstall -G dba,asmadmin,oper -s /bin/bash -m oracle passwd oracle Take Note of the oracle User Pass :) 9. Making Directories To Make Target Directories Commands: mkdir -p /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/ chown -R oracle:oinstall /u01 chmod -R 775 /u01 10. Extracting Unzip, Set oracle as Owner and Relocate database To Extract from Command Line: cd /home//Downloads unzip linux_11gR2_database_1of2.zip unzip linux_11gR2_database_2of2.zip chown -R oracle:oinstall database mv database /tmp 11. Setting the PATH Now Add Paths to oracle's .bashrc Fist Login as the Oracle User: su oracle Edit .bashrc file nano ~/.bashrc Insert: # Oracle Settings TMP/tmp; export TMP TMPDIR$TMP; export TMPDIR ORACLE_HOSTNAME; export ORACLE_HOSTNAME ORACLE_UNQNAMEDB11G; export ORACLE_UNQNAME ORACLE_BASE/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE ORACLE_HOME$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1; export ORACLE_HOME ORACLE_SID; export ORACLE_SID PATH/usr/sbin:$PATH; export PATH PATH$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH; export PATH LD_LIBRARY_PATH$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib64; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH CLASSPATH$ORACLE_HOME/jlib:$ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/jlib; export CLASSPATH Replace with IP and with SID Name In this Example Respectively: HOSTNAME 127.0.0.1 DBSID SID Load New .bashrc Settings: bash 12.
