The steps for installing an Oracle database are as follows:
- Download the Oracle database installation package. Download the Oracle database installation package suitable for your operating system from the Oracle official website, and unzip it to the directory of your choice.
- Create an installation response file for Oracle database. You can use a text editor to create a response file that includes installation options, such as ‘db_install.rsp’.
- Run the installation program. Locate the ‘runInstaller’ program in the installation package’s extraction directory and run it with administrator privileges. Select the “Install Software Only” option to begin the installation process.
- Configure installation options. Customize the installation settings of Oracle Database according to your needs, such as installation directory, database name, listener configuration, and so on.
- Set up a listener. Configure the listener to monitor database connection requests based on installation options.
- Create a database instance. Set the name, password, character set, etc. for the database instance, and choose whether to create a sample database.
- Installation is complete. Please wait for the installation process to finish, which may take some time depending on your system performance and the components selected.
- Verify the installation by connecting to the database instance through the command line or graphical interface tool to ensure that the installation and configuration of the database are working correctly.
