Ubuntu安装Oracle InstantClient
以前都是在RedHat下安装Oracle数据库或者客户端，今天需要在ubuntu上安装Oracle InstantClient，按道理也比较简单，今天就将安装过程记录下来。
环境：
Ubuntu14.04 LTS Server
Oracle 10.2.0.5 InstantClient：http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/linuxx86-64soft-092277.html
根据要求，我分别下载了Basic、SDK和Sqlplus包。
下面介绍两种安装方式：
一、直接下载相关ZIP包，这种方式最为简单
1、将三个ZIP包解压之后，合并到一起，然后上传到Ubuntu的某个用户下
2、默认文件夹为instantclient_10_2，设置775权限即可
sm@computer:~$ sudo chmod 775 -R instantclient_10_2/3、直接执行该文件夹里面的sqlplus
sm@computer:~/instantclient_10_2$ sqlplus sqlplus: command not found提示无效的命令，这肯定是环境变量的问题
4、添加环境变量，然后执行没有问题
sm@computer:~$ export PATH=/home/sm/instantclient_10_2/:$PATH sm@computer:~$ export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/sm/instantclient_10_2/:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH sm@computer:~$ cd instantclient_10_2/ sm@computer:~/instantclient_10_2$ sqlplus SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.5.0 - Production on Tue Apr 7 15:01:29 2015 Copyright (c) 1982, 2010, Oracle. All Rights Reserved. Enter user-name:5、我们同样可以将该环境变量添加到系统级别，这时候每次重启就直接读取环境变量了
sm@computer:~$ sudo vi /etc/profile将上面的信息添加到该文件的后面
然后生效环境变量
sm@computer:~$ source /etc/profile sm@computer:~$ echo $PATH /home/sm/instantclient_10_2/:/home/sm/instantclient_10_2/:/home/sm/instantclient_10_2/:/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin:/usr/games:/usr/local/games
这样就安装完毕了。
二、下载相关的RPM包
这种方式就比较麻烦了，因为RPM包是红帽和CentOS才识别的，如何才能在Ubuntu上安装RPM呢？
1、安装alien工具
apt-get install alien
2、使用alien命令将RPM转换为Ubuntu识别的deb包
sm@computer:~$ sudo alien -k oracle-instantclient-basic-10.2.0.5-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient-basic_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb generated sm@computer:~$ sudo alien -k oracle-instantclient-devel-10.2.0.5-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient-devel_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb generated sm@computer:~$ sudo alien -k oracle-instantclient-sqlplus-10.2.0.5-1.x86_64.rpm oracle-instantclient-sqlplus_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb generated
3、使用dpkg命令安装deb包
sm@computer:~$ sudo dpkg -i oracle-instantclient-basic_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package oracle-instantclient-basic. (Reading database ... 61710 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack oracle-instantclient-basic_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking oracle-instantclient-basic (10.2.0.5-1) ... Setting up oracle-instantclient-basic (10.2.0.5-1) ... Processing triggers for libc-bin (2.19-0ubuntu6.5) ... sm@computer:~$ sudo dpkg -i oracle-instantclient-devel_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package oracle-instantclient-devel. (Reading database ... 61725 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack oracle-instantclient-devel_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking oracle-instantclient-devel (10.2.0.5-1) ... Setting up oracle-instantclient-devel (10.2.0.5-1) ... sm@computer:~$ sudo dpkg -i oracle-instantclient-sqlplus_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb Selecting previously unselected package oracle-instantclient-sqlplus. (Reading database ... 61768 files and directories currently installed.) Preparing to unpack oracle-instantclient-sqlplus_10.2.0.5-1_amd64.deb ... Unpacking oracle-instantclient-sqlplus (10.2.0.5-1) ... Setting up oracle-instantclient-sqlplus (10.2.0.5-1) ...
4、系统会默认安装在如下路径
supermap@computer:/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.5/client64$ pwd /usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.5/client64
5、同样，我们将环境变量添加上去即可
export ORACLE_HOME=/usr/lib/oracle/10.2.0.5/client64 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$PATH
相对来说，还是第一种方法比较简单，但是通过第二种方法也学习到了如何在必须安装RPM条件下的解决办法！
