Summary: Oracle-xe page for Spacewalk doesn't work
Product: Fedora Hosted Projects
Version: unspecified
Platform: All
OS/Version: Linux
Status: NEW
Severity: medium
Priority: low
Component: Deployment_Guide
AssignedTo: mhideo at redhat.com
ReportedBy: mschwage at gmail.com
QAContact: rlerch at redhat.com
CC: fedora-docs-list at redhat.com
Classification: Fedora
Description of problem:
Sorry about the classification of this. I didn't see Spacewalk anywhere in
Bugzilla! Anyway, on the webpage
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OracleXeSetup#Install, the install
instructions don't work as advertised. There, it says
"Configure the Oracle XE database by running
# /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure"
This did not set the system/sys name correctly. Yes, I know, the oracle-xe
command comes from Oracle themselves, but on my RHEL53 machine it just refused
to set the password correctly. Did I try to do it 10 times or more? Yes I
did, and it did not work at all. Did I fat finger my password every single
lousy time I tried it? No I did not, for I was able to create my password as
easy as you please using my workaround below.
Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
oracle-xe-univ-10.2.0.1-1.0
oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.4-1
oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.2.0.4-1
How reproducible:
Every time.
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Do this on RHEL53 x86_64. Install the Oracle-XE software as listed.
2. Follow the instructions on
https://fedorahosted.org/spacewalk/wiki/OracleXeSetup#Install, up to and
including the "Test Your Connection with SQLPlus" part.
3. You fail to login.
Actual results:
Fail to login.
Expected results:
Successful login.
Additional info:
The workaround is to perform the following after running /etc/init.d/oracle-xe
configure :
su - oracle
. /usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oracle_env.sh
/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.4/client64/bin/sqlplus /NOLOG
CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
alter user sys identified by password;
alter user system identified by password;
sqlplus64 'sys at xe as sysdba'
