Download and install Oracle Database 18c – NOW!

Most of you already have seen that Oracle Database 18c has been already released. If you haven’t downloaded and installed it yet, let’s do it!
First of all, check the following address and download the installation of Oracle Database 18c:
If you want to download it from the host itself, you can use wget by providing username, password and the installation zip file as follows:
wget –http-user=YOUR_USERNAME –http-password=YOUR_PASSWORD –no-check-certificate –output-document=LINUX.X64_180000_db_home.zip “https://download.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle18c/180000/LINUX.X64_180000_db_home.zip”
If you want to get more information on this technique, check the following metalink note:
Using WGET to download My Oracle Support Patches (Doc ID 980924.1)

Next, unzip the file and run ./runInstaller :







Choose the first option and click Next:



If you don’t want to choose the components and configure the advanced options, choose “Desktop class” and click Next:

Provide the Oracle Base and database file locations, database name and the SYS password and click Next



Check the summary information and click Install



Installation (actually relinkin) will proceed and you will be asked to run the root.sh script with the root user. Run it and click Ok to proceed



The installation will create a database, provide the OEM page and finishes.


Click close, switch to the terminal, login to the database and start getting your hands dirty with Oracle 18c!
