Oracle Linux yum setup

Oracle Linux yum setup

今天下载了Oracle Linux 6.1,在虚拟机上安装起来,准备用它安装ORACLE 11G R2 (11.2.0.3) 突然发现yum不能使用,网上找了下,在http://public-yum.oracle.com/  网站找到SETUP文档.

Getting Started

1. Download and Install Oracle Linux

2. Download and copy the appropriate yum configuration file in place, by running the following commands as root:

   Oracle Linux 4, Update 6 or Newer

   # cd /etc/yum.repos.d
   # mv Oracle-Base.repo Oracle-Base.repo.disabled
   # wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el4.repo

   Oracle Linux 5

   # cd /etc/yum.repos.d
   # wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-el5.repo

   Oracle Linux 6

   # cd /etc/yum.repos.d
   # wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ol6.repo

   Oracle VM 2

   # cd /etc/yum.repos.d
   # wget http://public-yum.oracle.com/public-yum-ovm2.repo

3. Enable the appropriate repository by editing the yum configuration file

   • Open the yum configuration file in a text editor
   • Locate the section in the file for the repository you plan to update from, e.g. [el4_u6_base]
   • Change enabled=0 to enabled=1

4. Begin using yum, for example:

   yum list

   yum install firefox
