Can´t install Oracle 11g XE: rpm package intended for x86_64 architecture

655ed470-d688-4c6d-9a38-2dfe6e88c31bMay 7 2018 — edited May 8 2018

Hello,

I downloaded Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Release 2 for Linux x64, since this was the only version I found for Linux at the Download page.

After unzipping, I tried to install the RPM package and got this error:

rpm -i oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm

          package oracle-xe-11.2.0-1.0.x86_64.rpm is intended for a x86_64 architecture

Following a suggestion from somewhere, I did this command to identify my architecture:

uname -a

Linux [machinename] 2.6.32-220.el6.i686 #1 SMP Wed Nov 9 08:02:18 EST 2011 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

What someone suggested is to find a package for i686 architecture.

But it seems there are no other package version at the Download page. Right ?

Is there another way to solve this problem ?
