sqlplus
Enter user-name: SYSTEM
Enter password:
ERROR:
ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
Linux Error: 2: No such file or directory

Did you set ORACLE_HOME & ORACLE_SID by running . oraenv?

For details, see http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/Oraenv

HI,

HOME is set to: "/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server"
SID is set to "XE"

when i run oraenv

ebian-50-lenny-64-LAMP:/# oraenv
ORACLE_SID = [XE] ? XE
/usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/bin/oraenv: line 64: dbhome: command not found
ORACLE_HOME = [] ?

1. You need a dot in front of oraenv

2. dbhome should be in $ORACLE_HOME/bin/. Debug the script to see why it cannot be found.

Try to connect to the database by using the command like,

$ sqlplus system/manager@<db name>

db name is nothing but the name which you specify at tnsnames.ora file.And try to connect the once again.
It will get connect.

Hi,

Try to connect to the database by using the command like,

sqlplus / as sysdba

Can you post ~oracle/.bash_profile file?

But I can tell you straight away that there are no Oracle products supported on Debian. OEL is free. You can try it.
