How to install oracle 10g express edition in ubuntu

1. double click the oracle 10g installation file. it will check some dependencies. if some files are missing it will let you know. depending on that you have to install some more packages. it is almost certain that you will need libaio1 package. if it is required then just install it from the deb file you just downloaded. if there are no dependencies to be satisfied then install the package.

2. after the installation is finished you need to configure it. for that open the terminal and type
Code: Select All

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure
it will ask for some port numbers. just press enter. it will keep the default port. it will also ask for the password. give it and then confirm it. then it will ask to whether to start it at startup or not. I would recommend no.

3. Now you have to add it to the bash. in the terminal type
Code: Select All

sudo gedit ~/.bashrc
at the end of the file add
Code: Select All

ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin
export ORACLE_HOME
export ORACLE_SID=XE

export PATH
now restart your pc.

4. At the time of login you will see a new account. dont worry by seeing it. now after logging into your normal account move to system>administration>user and groups. there select and enable that new account and set a password for that. now click on the manage group option. you will see a list of groups . select dba and click on properties. check your account and that new account (probably it will be named as oracle).

5. reboot it again. now login into that new account or your own account and start the database by applications>oracle database(something like that)>start database.
you can now access the database. for testing paste this link to the browser

http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex

6. for giving sql command just type the following in the terminal
Code: Select All

sqlplus sys as sysdba
it will ask for the password. give it

Hi! I'm Java...

Java is a computer programming language. It enables programmers to write computer instructions using English based commands, instead of having to write in numeric codes. It’s known as a “high-level” language because it can be read and written easily by humans. Like English, Java has a set of rules that determine how the instructions are written. These rules are known as its “syntax”. Once a program has been written, the high-level instructions are translated into numeric codes that computers can understand and execute. Who Created Java? In the early nineties, Java was created by a team led by James Gosling for Sun Microsystems. It was originally designed for use on digital mobile devices, such as cell phones. However, when Java 1.0 was released to the public in 1996, its main focus had shifted to use on the Internet. It provided more interactivity with users by giving developers a way to produce animated webpages . Over the years it has evolved as a successful language for

Comparison over Intel Core 2 duo & Intel Core i3 Processor

A comparison between processors was simple some years ago with a single core processor. All you had to look at was the clocking frequency and the cache size. The entry of multiple core chips changed it all and life became complicated. With dual, quad and even six core processors hitting the market, there are many more factors to be considered, than before. Intel's dual core and core 2 duo processors were the first ones to introduce multi-core processor based computing. The quad core processors created later have given rise to the quad core vs dual core debate, as well as the core i5 vs core i7 comparison which is something that high-end computing market consumers should think about. Prior to that, we only had the 32 bit vs 64 bit processors comparison to worry about. Today, Intel has gone through a lot of designing and planning, to introduce core i3 processors that are an improvement over the core 2 duo line. The following Intel core i3 vs core 2 duo processor comparison wil

I'm the Server Operating System

Server Operating System A server operating system is software that was especially developed to serve as a platform for running multi-user computer programs, applications that are networked and programs critical to business computing. This type of operating system (OS) often comes bundled with the most common types of applications deployed in the client-server model, a term used to indicate the exchange of information between computers. For example, a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) or web server hosts or "holds" the text files, images files and scripts that work together to form a website. When someone connects to the Internet and types in a web address, the server that holds the files of the site delivers or "serves" the requested pages to the client computer or the machine that made the request. Frequently used applications in the client-server model handle operations for sharing files and printers across a network, hosting and serving web pages via the
