Starting Stopping Oracle 10g XE on Linux

495625Mar 23 2006 — edited Mar 24 2006

Hi,

I successfully installed Oracle 10g XE on Suse 10.0 as root. The install went without errors. I configured the oracle with "/etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure" and opted not to start oracle while bootup.

Then whenever I clicked on Start Database or Stop Database link just nothing happens. The cursor changes shape and after sometime returns back to original shape.

However, I was easily able to start/stop the database from command line: -
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe enable
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe start
/etc/init.d/oracle-xe stop

Then I edited /etc/init.d/oracle-xe to enable startup of oracle at bootup and everything work fine now.

But I'm still not able to start/stop the database from the links provided in the KDE menu.

By checking the links, they are pointing rightly to startdb.sh and stopdb.sh in scripts directory of config directory.

Please help me.

Thanks in advance.
