HOWTO install Oracle 11g on Ubuntu Linux 12.04 (Precise Pangolin) 64bits
Esta página ha sido traducida en español por Maria Ramos de Webhsotinghub.com/support/eduBefore starting
Since release 11.10 it is more difficult to install Oracle 64bits on Ubuntu.If you need to run Oracle on a production environment, please install a supported Linux distribution.
So why installing Oracle on Ubuntu ?
- You may manage Ubuntu servers and cannot use other linux distributions
- You may be a developper, and clearly, ubuntu is a good choice for the desktop environment so you want to continue developing on your favorite distribution
- You may be a student learning Oracle, and clearly, ubuntu is a good choice for the desktop environment so you want to continue learning on your favorite distribution
- Because you want to !
Since version 11.10 of Ubuntu, installing Oracle as become much more complicated than already described in this previous Oracle installation guide on Ubunto 64bits how to.
This is due to, at least, the following points:
- /dev/shm is a symbolic link to /run/shm and Oracle binaries do not properly support this, resulting in MEMORY TARGET errors
- new configuration/compilation rules with gcc (indirect library linking) no more allow a library A referencing functions of library C linked with library B that is linked with library A. In this case, library A must be explicitly linked with library C too. So Oracle makefiles have to be updated for some libraries.
- Installing Oracle 11g on ubuntu 11.10
- Another howto on installing Oracle 11gR2 on ubuntu 11.10
- Installing Oracle 11g on ubuntu 11.10 64bits from ubuntu forums
- Installing Oracle 11g on ubuntu 12.04 server
Because they were not so easy to found, and I had started my own article before solving all the encountered issues.
Because they do not all describe or explain all errors I've encoutered and because I suggest others solutions to solve parts of encoutered as for /dev/shm.
Downloading Oracle 11g 64 bits for Linux
First, download Oracle 11gR2 Enterprise/Standard Edition for Linux x86-64 from Oracle website.Then extract the downloaded file:
unzip linux.x64_11gR2_database_1of2.zip unzip linux.x64_11gR2_database_2of2.zipA new folder named database will be extracted.
Preparing the system
Second, read the HTML documentation of the quick install guide you can found in the extracted folder at this place: database/doc/install.112/e10860/toc.htmFor the rest of this howto, we suppose Oracle will be installed at /opt/oracle Root directory in a freshly newly installed Linux Ubuntu distribution.
We will have to:
- Create required users and groups accounts
- Set required system parameters in /etc/sysctl.conf
- Installing complementary packages
Creating system accounts
Creating Oracle Inventory group:sudo groupadd oinstallCreating Oracle DBA group:
sudo groupadd dbaCreating Oracle user home and account:
sudo mkdir -p /opt/oracle sudo useradd -g oinstall -G dba -d /opt/oracle -s /bin/bash oracle sudo passwd oracle sudo chown -R oracle:oinstall /opt/oracleFor Oracle 10g, it was required to add nobody user group, this is no more required with 11g as it is no more described in 11g quick installation guide.
Updating kernel parameters
This is one of the longest task of this installation. Because you will have to check your current config.Check commands in Oracle documentation for this, section 6 Configuring Kernel Parameters.
Then, edit the file /etc/sysctl.conf as described below:
sudo gedit /etc/sysctl.confAdd the following lines to get minimal values required by Oracle, adjusting if required, depending of your configuration:
# # Oracle 11g # kernel.sem = 250 32000 100 128 kernel.shmall = 2097152 kernel.shmmni = 4096 # Replace kernel.shmmax with the half of your memory in bytes # if lower than 4Go minus 1 # 1073741824 is 1 GigaBytes kernel.shmmax=1073741824 # Try sysctl -a | grep ip_local_port_range to get real values net.ipv4.ip_local_port_range = 9000 65500 net.core.rmem_default = 262144 net.core.rmem_max = 4194304 net.core.wmem_default = 262144 net.core.wmem_max = 1048576 # Max value allowed, should be set to avoid IO errors fs.aio-max-nr = 1048576 # 512 * PROCESSES / what really means processes ? fs.file-max = 6815744 # To allow dba to allocate hugetlbfs pages # 1001 is your oinstall group, id. grep oinstall /etc/group will give this value vm.hugetlb_shm_group = 1001About HUGE TLB.
Since Ubuntu Karmic (it was not required on Ubuntu Jaunty) kernel parameters have changed and this was required for 10g.
Without these parameters your Oracle instance won't be able to create shared memory segment and will refuse to start.
Not tested on Ubuntu 12.04 but this is now described in 11g documentation.
You have to replace the value of 1001 with the group ID of the oinstall group.
Read this great howto install Oracle on debian to know more about huge tlb parameter.
Then, run the command below to set these kernel parameters:
sudo sysctl -pNow, update /etc/security/limits.conf:
sudo gedit /etc/security/limits.confAnd add the following parameters:
# Oracle oracle soft nproc 2047 oracle hard nproc 16384 oracle soft nofile 1024 oracle hard nofile 65536 oracle soft stack 10240Check that /etc/pam.d/login contains a line like this one:
session required pam_limits.soNow, update /etc/profile:
sudo gedit /etc/profileAnd add the following lines:
if [ $USER = "oracle" ]; then if [ $SHELL = "/bin/ksh" ]; then ulimit -p 16384 ulimit -n 65536 else ulimit -u 16384 -n 65536 fi fi
Installing additional packages
If not already done, update your distribution with the latest packages:sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get dist-upgradeInstall the following additional packages:
sudo apt-get install alien sudo apt-get install autoconf sudo apt-get install automake sudo apt-get install autotools-dev sudo apt-get install binutils sudo apt-get install bzip2 sudo apt-get install doxygen sudo apt-get install elfutils sudo apt-get install expat sudo apt-get install gawk sudo apt-get install gcc sudo apt-get install gcc-multilib sudo apt-get install g++-multilib # This will help preventing prevent from runInstaller terrific ./runInstaller: line 54: ./install/.oui: No such file or directory error message sudo apt-get install ia32-libs sudo apt-get install ksh sudo apt-get install less sudo apt-get install lesstif2 sudo apt-get install lesstif2-dev sudo apt-get install lib32z1 sudo apt-get install libaio1 sudo apt-get install libaio-dev sudo apt-get install libc6-dev sudo apt-get install libc6-dev-i386 sudo apt-get install libc6-i386 sudo apt-get install libelf-dev sudo apt-get install libltdl-dev sudo apt-get install libmotif4 sudo apt-get install libodbcinstq4-1 libodbcinstq4-1:i386 sudo apt-get install libpth-dev sudo apt-get install libpthread-stubs0 sudo apt-get install libpthread-stubs0-dev sudo apt-get install libstdc++5 sudo apt-get install lsb-cxx sudo apt-get install make sudo apt-get install openssh-server sudo apt-get install pdksh sudo apt-get install rlwrap sudo apt-get install rpm sudo apt-get install sysstat sudo apt-get install unixodbc sudo apt-get install unixodbc-dev sudo apt-get install unzip sudo apt-get install x11-utils sudo apt-get install zlibc
Preventing from installation errors
To prevent from error genclntsh: Failed to link libclntsh.so.11.1 in make file for rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mkbeacause of missing library: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find /usr/lib64/libpthread_nonshared.a inside
we need to create a symlink for /usr/lib64:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu /usr/lib64To help preventing from error lib//libagtsh.so: undefined reference to `nnfyboot' in make: rdbms/lib/dg4odbc] Error 1
sudo ln -sf /bin/bash /bin/sh sudo ln -s /usr/bin/awk /bin/awk sudo ln -s /usr/bin/rpm /bin/rpm sudo ln -s /usr/bin/basename /bin/basename
To prevent from # /lib64/libgcc_s.so.1: File or directory does not exists, while creating lib/liborasdkbase.so.11.1 in ins_rdbms.mk, execute the command:
cd /lib64 sudo ln -s /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libgcc_s.so.1 .
Oracle 11g also needs libstdc++5 in 32bits version that is not provided with Ubuntu Pangolin.
There are many ways to install it, I have followed this howto to install libstdc++5 on Ubuntu Karmic Below is the summary of this HOWTO:
mkdir /tmp/libstdc++5 cd /tmp/libstdc++5 wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.... wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/g/gcc-3.3/libstdc++5_3.3.... sudo dpkg --force-architecture -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_i386.deb sudo mv /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.5* /usr/lib32/ sudo dpkg -i libstdc++5_3.3.6-17ubuntu1_amd64.debNow reboot your system to be sure these parameters will be taken in account for the next part of the installation.
Others configurations
Connect as Oracle user and set some default startup filesudo su - oracle cd touch .bashrc ln -s .bashrc .bash_profileEdit .bashrc file:
vi .bashrcAnd add the following line:
umask 022Execute the .bashrc file or restart a bash shell
source .bashrc
Installing Oracle
Now we can start the installation of the Oracle 10g archive.Allow others users to connect to your X session, by entering in a bash shell:
xhost +Then, login as oracle user:
su - oracleGo in the extracted database folder and run the following commands:
export DISPLAY=:0 ./runInstallerThen, Oracle installer should start in graphic mode.
For the rest of the installation, we suppose you will choose the following options:
- Installing Oracle 11g Enterprise edition in advanced mode
- Installing server class
- Oracle base directory: /opt/oracle/Oracle11gee
- Oracle home: /opt/oracle/Oracle11gee/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1
- Oracle inventory: /opt/oracle/oraInventory
- Oracle database global name and SID: orcl
- Character set: Unicode AL32UTF8
- Memory: Uncheck activate automatic memory management to prevent from ORA-00845: MEMORY_TARGET not supported on this system. Antoher solution could be to remove /de/shm symbolic link and mount it as a bind to /run/shm: mount --bind /run/shm /dev/shm. But this no more seems to be an issue on 12.04, was ok as automatic with my last installation.
- Oradata directory: /opt/oracle/Oracle11gee/oradata
Then, you will encounter issues.
Solving compilation/link errors
Some issues should appear during installation.If you have not created the symbolic links above, you will have to solve error lib//libagtsh.so: undefined reference to `nnfyboot' in make: rdbms/lib/dg4odbc] Error 1. For this, create the symbolic links and execute the commands:
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/Oracle11gee/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1 cd $ORACLE_HOME/lib ln -s libclient11.a libagtsh.a $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genagtsh $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libagtsh.so 1.0Now we will encounter many errors due to indirect library linking:
To solve error # libnnz11.so: could not read symbols: Invalid operation /sysman/lib/ins_emagent.mk, enter the command:
export ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle/Oracle11gee/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1 sed -i 's/^\(\s*\$(MK_EMAGENT_NMECTL)\)\s*$/\1 -lnnz11/g' $ORACLE_HOME/sysman/lib/ins_emagent.mkTo solve error # nsglsn.c:(.text+0xc29): undefined reference to `ons_subscriber_close' /network/lib/ins_net_server.mk, enter the command:
sed -i 's/^\(TNSLSNR_LINKLINE.*\$(TNSLSNR_OFILES)\) \(\$(LINKTTLIBS)\)/\1 -Wl,--no-as-needed \2/g' $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/env_network.mkTo solve error # libocrutl11.so: undefined reference to `lfifcp' rdbms/lib/ins_rdbms.mk, enter the commands:
sed -i 's/^\(ORACLE_LINKLINE.*\$(ORACLE_LINKER)\) \(\$(PL_FLAGS)\)/\1 -Wl,--no-as-needed \2/g' $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/lib/env_rdbms.mkYou also need to execute the following commands to prevent from later errors:
sed -i 's/^\(\$LD \$LD_RUNTIME\) \(\$LD_OPT\)/\1 -Wl,--no-as-needed \2/g' $ORACLE_HOME/bin/genorasdksh sed -i 's/^\(\s*\)\(\$(OCRLIBS_DEFAULT)\)/\1 -Wl,--no-as-needed \2/g' $ORACLE_HOME/srvm/lib/ins_srvm.mk
