And most importantly, downloads and installs number of packages which are required for the Oracle 11g database software installation while resolving the dependencies between the packages as wellNote that the oracle-validated RPM package is accessible through the Oracle Unbreakable Linux Network (ULN) which requires a support contract or from the Oracle public yum repository.
First we needed to configure the Linux machine to be able to connect to the internet using the corporate proxy and we did this by editing the/etc/profile.d/proxy.sh file with some environment variables like FTP_PROXY and HTTP_PROXY
export http_proxy=http://test-apache-001-dev.corporateict.domain:8123/
export ftp_proxy=http://test-apache-001-dev.corporateict.domain:8123/
export no_proxy=.corporateict.domain
export HTTP_PROXY=http://test-apache-001-dev.corporateict.domain:8123/
export FTP_PROXY=http://test-apache-001-dev.corporateict.domain:8123/
Login once again as root to invoke the changes made to the environment.
We then use wget to download the file which has the repository locations
[root@kens-orasql-001 yum.repos.d]# wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo
We have to update this file and change the line enabled=0 to enabled=1 for the tag which is appropriate to our Linux version – in our case we were using OEL 5.7 so we have to update these lines:
Change
[ol5_u7_base]
name=Oracle Linux $releasever – U7 – $basearch – base
baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL5/7/base/$basearch/
gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-el5
gpgcheck=1
enabled=0
to
[ol5_u7_base]
name=Oracle Linux $releasever – U7 – $basearch – base
baseurl=http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL5/7/base/$basearch/
gpgkey=http://public-yum.oracle.com/RPM-GPG-KEY-oracle-el5
gpgcheck=1
enabled=1
We then ran a yum update followed by the yum install oracle-validated

How to solve the problem of closing oracle cursor
Apr 11, 2025 pm 10:18 PM
The method to solve the Oracle cursor closure problem includes: explicitly closing the cursor using the CLOSE statement. Declare the cursor in the FOR UPDATE clause so that it automatically closes after the scope is ended. Declare the cursor in the USING clause so that it automatically closes when the associated PL/SQL variable is closed. Use exception handling to ensure that the cursor is closed in any exception situation. Use the connection pool to automatically close the cursor. Disable automatic submission and delay cursor closing.
How to create cursors in oracle loop
Apr 12, 2025 am 06:18 AM
In Oracle, the FOR LOOP loop can create cursors dynamically. The steps are: 1. Define the cursor type; 2. Create the loop; 3. Create the cursor dynamically; 4. Execute the cursor; 5. Close the cursor. Example: A cursor can be created cycle-by-circuit to display the names and salaries of the top 10 employees.
How to export oracle view
Apr 12, 2025 am 06:15 AM

What to do if the oracle log is full
Apr 12, 2025 am 06:09 AM
When Oracle log files are full, the following solutions can be adopted: 1) Clean old log files; 2) Increase the log file size; 3) Increase the log file group; 4) Set up automatic log management; 5) Reinitialize the database. Before implementing any solution, it is recommended to back up the database to prevent data loss.

What steps are required to configure CentOS in HDFS
Apr 14, 2025 pm 06:42 PM
Building a Hadoop Distributed File System (HDFS) on a CentOS system requires multiple steps. This article provides a brief configuration guide. 1. Prepare to install JDK in the early stage: Install JavaDevelopmentKit (JDK) on all nodes, and the version must be compatible with Hadoop. The installation package can be downloaded from the Oracle official website. Environment variable configuration: Edit /etc/profile file, set Java and Hadoop environment variables, so that the system can find the installation path of JDK and Hadoop. 2. Security configuration: SSH password-free login to generate SSH key: Use the ssh-keygen command on each node
