Installing Oracle XE 11.2.0.0.5 , Weblogic 10.3.5 and SOA 11.1.1.5.0 in 64 bit CentOS 5.6

Make sure that you have downloaded all the required files for installation. I installed all the products in 64 bit CentOS 5.6 release.

Confirm your system type by following:

# uname -i
x86_64
# uname -a
Linux dhcpfbb8t-47.mdacc.tmc.edu 2.6.18-238.12.1.el5 #1 SMP Tue May 31 13:22:04 EDT 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux
# cat /etc/*release*
cat: /etc/lsb-release.d: Is a directory
CentOS release 5.6 (Final)

JDK 1.6 - jdk-6u27-ea-bin-b01-linux-amd64-18_may_2011.bin

Install jdk as root user and set the JAVA_HOME in the ~/.bashrc file

export JAVA_HOME=/opt/jdk1.6.27

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH

JDeveloper - jdevstudio11115install.bin

Install jdeveloper as root user and set the JDEV_HOME in ~/.bashrc file.

export JDEV_HOME=/opt/jdk1.6.27

export PATH=$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JDEV_HOME/bin:$PATH

Oracle XE - oracle-xe-11.2.0-0.5.x86_64.rpm

Download the above file and install as root user

rpm -ivh oracle-xe-11.2.0-0.5.x86_64.rpm

Now edit the ~/.bashrc and make the below changes.

export ORACLE_HOME="/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe"
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$JDEV_HOME/jdev/bin:$PATH

After the installation, you need to change the processes and sessions values using sqlplus.

sqlplus sys/<password>@<sid> as sysdba;

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET PROCESSES=900 SCOPE=SPFILE;

System altered.

SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SESSIONS=900 SCOPE=SPFILE;

System altered.

SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORACLE instance shut down.
SQL> exit

Now start the database again by

/etc/init.d/oracle-xe start

Before proceeding further, you need to make sure that you have all the required os packages are installed.

yum install compat-libstdc++-296 binutils compat-db control-center gcc gcc-c++ glibc glibc-common gnome-libs libstdc++ libstdc++-devel make pdksh sysstat xscreensaver libaio openmotif21 libaio-devel-0.3.106 compat-libstdc++-33 unixODBC-2.2.11 unixODBC-devel-2.2.11 elfutils-libelf-devel
