I was able to do a local install of a Cent OS on a 64bit machine and then a successful remote install of Oracle XE. Perhaps this is an issue with Go Daddy's virtual environment. Any thoughts? -----Original Message----- From: plug-discuss-bounces@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us [mailto:plug-discuss-bounces@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us] On Behalf Of Bryan O'Neal Sent: Sunday, November 18, 2007 12:56 AM To: Main PLUG discussion list; Arizona State University Linux Users Group Subject: Installing Oracle XE on a 64bit system - Free Bear to the firstperson who correctly solves my problem! I have now spent close to 15 hours beating my head against this one so I am asking for help, has any one managed to get Oracle 10 Express (the free one) installed on a 64 bit machine? I have three 32bit machines that installed like a dream and I have tried three different FC/RH OS's on a 64 bit VDS and just can not get it to work. RPM installers just fine, but I can not connect to the DB, and I get no errors, but the db seems to be running! It is maddening! Their isn't even an error in the logs to go off of! Any help? I can install on FC 6 & FC7 (three different 32bit boxes machines) but I can not get it install on my 64 bit GoDaddy virtual dedicated server. I have tried it using CENT OS4, CENT OS 5 (had to manual install some dependencies) and FC7 (had to compile a lib from oracle) and it all goes smooth enough but the end result is the same. The service is running, the lights seem on, but nobody is home. I can not connect to the web app or use the client even when tunneled into the localhost on the remote box. --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss --------------------------------------------------- PLUG-discuss mailing list - PLUG-discuss@lists.plug.phoenix.az.us To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: http://lists.PLUG.phoenix.az.us/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
