Oracle XE Virtual Machine creation using vagrant and chef-solo

To create the VM Box using veewee:

Create a Oracle 6.4 VM using veewee

https://github.com/jedi4ever/veewee

$ veewee vbox define 'OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD' 'OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD'
$ veewee vbox build 'OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD'
$ veewee vbox halt 'OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD'
$ veewee vbox export 'OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD'

import into vagrant

$ vagrant box add myoracle64 OracleLinux-6.4-x86_64-DVD.box

Now the Vagrantfile using the 'myoracle64' box definition should pick up the box

The chef 'oraxe' recipe will install rpm packages for oracle-xe and sqldeveloper which must be downloaded from the Oracle website (TODO: urls) and put into oraxe_install directory...

TODO:

  • install Java (needed for SQL Developer)
  • install minimal X and/or Xvnc for local usage of sqldeveloper?
    • alternative: use X Forwarding via ssh? gnome, gdm, fonts (yum groupinstall 'Fonts') testen welche...
  • squirrel?
  • ...
