Error while following instructions to install SQL Developer on Ubuntu 11.10

Dwilson-OracleNov 29 2011 — edited Nov 30 2011
Hi-

I've successfully installed Oracle 11gR2 XE on Ubuntu 11.10 and am now following the post on installing SQL Developer (2304774

I'm on the last step, which instructs to run the following statement
"sudo update-desktop-database"

which, when I do, I receive the following error message:

Error in file "/usr/share/applications/oraclexe-startdb.desktop": "Application/database" is an invalid MIME type ("Application" is an unregistered media type)

Any thoughts on what to do to correct this?

Many thanks to Dude for the instructions on installing both the database and SQL Developer on Ubuntu 11.10!!

Thanks
Darin
