How to Reconfigure Oracle 10G Xe on Linux

How to reconfigure Oracle 10g xe on Linux

Oracle creates a system account named oracle. To change password to that account just use

passwd oracle

if you forgot another password from DB then log in as oracle user and use

sqlplus / as sysdba

to change the password for various DB accounts.

To reconfigure change in /etc/default/oracle-xe

CONFIGURE_RUN=true 

to

CONFIGURE_RUN=false

and rerun

sudo /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure 

how to install oracle 10g xe on ubuntu 11.04

It seemes to me that package is broken. If I understand it correctly, libc latest version is 2.14 (http://www.eglibc.org/home)

So you should rebuild this package without this dependency to install it.

Oracle XE 10g Ubuntu removed from oracle web site?

The link on oracle.com is not available/linked/visible officially anymore, but still out there in the wild:

http://download.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle10g/xe/10201/oracle-xe_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb

If you just click the link, you'll get an error message, so you have to

1. Login in to oracle.com, for example at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/products/express-edition/downloads/index.html

2. Accept the license agreement (cookies get set) and click on download for any 11g XE (don't need to download, just cancel after it started)

3. copy and paste the URL http://download.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle10g/xe/10201/oracle-xe_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb into your browser address bar and the download starts

4. install with sudo dpkg -i oracle-xe_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb etc.

This solution worked as of 2012-07-24, no guarantees the .deb file will be available in the future, this is Oracle's decision.
