Fedora User Manager
As one of my students pointed out, Fedora doesn’t install a GUI user management tool installed by default. That’s true. It’s easy to install. You can install it as the root user, like:
yum install -y system-config-users |
It should generate a screen console output like this when successfully installed:

You can verify the GUI user management tool is present with the following command:
which system-config-users |
It should return this:
/bin/system-config-users |
You can run the GUI user management tool from the root user account or any sudoer account. The following shows how to launch the GUI User Manager from a sudoer account:
sudo system-config-users |
It will generate the following GUI User Manager screen:
As always, I hope this helps those trying to do some that should be a basic task that seems to get lost form the books and manuals beginners use.

Install PyGame on Fedora
The PyGame library is a wonderful tool for building games with Python. It lets you accomplish a great deal by simply managing events. You need to understand how to use Python functions, modules, and events to build games with this Python library.
You can download and install the PyGame library with the yum utility like this:
yum install -y pygame |
It should generate the following list when you install it as the root user:

You can then test the EasyGUI library with the following three lines of code inside the IDLE interpreter:

OK button clicked ... |
The easygui.enterbox call displays the image below. Enter “Peppermint” in the entry box and click the OK button to assign the “Peppermint” string literal to the flavor variable.
The easygui.msgbox call displays the message below:
When you click the OK button, the program returns an “OK” string to the Python code. It prints the string “OK button clicked …” string:
As always, I hope this helps those looking for instructions and a quick way to play with Python and GUI applications.
Install cx_Oracle for Python
This shows you how to install the cx_Oracle library for Python 2.7 on Fedora Linux. If Fedora has it on the server you can download it with the following yum command:
yum install -y cx_Oracle-5.2.1-11g-py27-1.x86_64.rpm |
Currently, you’ll get the following failure because it’s not available in the Fedora repository:

Error: Nothing to do |
You can download the cx_Oracle library from the Python web site. The cx_Oracle documentation qualifies module interfaces, objects, and connections. Assuming your Linux user’s name is student, you download the cx_Oracle library into the /home/student/Downloads directory. Then, you use the su or sudo command to become the root user.
As the root user, run the following yum command:
yum install -y ~student/Downloads/cx_Oracle-5.2.1-11g-py27-1.x86_64.rpm |

You can create a Python program that checks your ability to connect to the Oracle database, like the following oracleConnection.py file:
# Import the Oracle library. import cx_Oracle try: # Create a connection. db = cx_Oracle.connect("student/student@xe") # Print a message. print "Connected to the Oracle " + db.version + " database." except cx_Oracle.DatabaseError, e: error, = e.args print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message finally: # Close cursor. db.close() |
You can run this from the Linux command line with the following syntax:
python oracleConnection.py |
It should return the following string:
Connected to the Oracle 11.2.0.2.0 database. |
Now, you can create a Python program that reads data from the Oracle database. The following oracleString.py file reads a string literal from the pseudo table dual:
# Import the Oracle library. import cx_Oracle try: # Create a connection. db = cx_Oracle.connect("student/student@xe") # Create a cursor. cursor = db.cursor() # Execute a query. cursor.execute("SELECT 'Hello world!' FROM dual") # Read the contents of the cursor. for row in cursor: print (row[0]) except cx_Oracle.DatabaseError, e: error, = e.args print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message finally: # Close cursor and connection. cursor.close() db.close() |
You can run this from the Linux command line with the following syntax:
python oracleString.py |
It should return the following string:
Hello world! |
Now, you can create a Python program that reads actual table data from the Oracle database (assuming you have a copy of my video store database). The following oracleTable.py file reads a string literal from the pseudo table dual:
# Import the Oracle library. import cx_Oracle try: # Create a connection. db = cx_Oracle.connect("student/student@xe") # Create a cursor. cursor = db.cursor() # Execute a query. cursor.execute("SELECT item_title, item_subtitle FROM item") # Read the contents of the cursor. for row in cursor: print (row[0], row[1]) except cx_Oracle.DatabaseError, e: error, = e.args print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Code:", error.code print >> sys.stderr, "Oracle-Error-Message:", error.message finally: # Close cursor and connection. cursor.close() db.close() |
You can run this from the Linux command line with the following syntax:
python oracleTable.py |
It should return the following strings (only a subset of the returned values):
("Harry Potter and the Sorcer's Stone", 'Two-Disc Special Edition')
('Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets', 'Two-Disc Special Edition')
('Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban', 'Two-Disc Special Edition')
('Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets', None)
('Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', 'Widescreen Edition')
('Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire', 'Two-Disc Special Edition')
('Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix', 'Widescreen Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - Fellowship of the Ring', 'Widescreen Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - Fellowship of the Ring', 'Platinum Series Special Extended Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - Two Towers', 'Widescreen Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - Two Towers', 'Platinum Series Special Extended Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King', 'Widescreen Edition')
('The Lord of the Rings - The Return of the King', 'Platinum Series Special Extended Edition')
('Star Wars - Episode I', 'The Phantom Menace')
('Star Wars - Episode II', 'Attack of the Clones')
('Star Wars - Episode III', 'Revenge of the Sith')
('Star Wars - Episode IV', 'A New Hope')
('Star Wars - Episode V', 'The Empire Strikes Back')
('Star Wars - Episode VI', 'Return of the Jedi') |
As always, I hope this helps others who want to work with Python and the Oracle database.
Oracle Segment Fails
The instance that I’ve built for my students in a Fedora VM is quite stable except for one feature. The feature is the hibernation process of the base operating system. Sometimes when the base operating system hibernates, it causes the Oracle shared memory segment to fail. When that happens you get the following error:
ERROR: ORA-01034: ORACLE NOT available ORA-27101: shared memory realm does NOT exist Linux-x86_64 Error: 2: No such FILE OR DIRECTORY Process ID: 0 SESSION ID: 0 Serial NUMBER: 0 |
I created the master sudoer account as the student user. The oracle user is configured so that you can’t log in to the Linux OS with it. To restart the instance you can do the following in a default Oracle 11g XE installation:
su - root |
or, you can do this:
sudo sh |
Then as the root user, you can sign on to the oracle user’s account by using the su command without a password, like:
su - oracle |
As the user who installed the Oracle instance, you can connect to the database without a password after you source the environment file. The standard Oracle 11g XE environment file can be sources like this:
. /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh |
Alternatively, for my students there is a .bashrc file that they can manually source. It contains the following:
# Source global definitions if [ -f /etc/bashrc ]; then . /etc/bashrc fi # Uncomment the following line if you don't like systemctl's auto-paging feature: # export SYSTEMD_PAGER= # User specific aliases and functions . /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/xe/bin/oracle_env.sh # Wrap sqlplus with rlwrap to edit prior lines with the # up, down, left and right keys. sqlplus () { # Discover the fully qualified program name. path=`which rlwrap 2>/dev/null` file='' # Parse the program name from the path. if [ -n ${path} ]; then file=${path##/*/} fi; # Wrap when there is a file and it is rewrap. if [ -n ${file} ] && [[ ${file} = "rlwrap" ]]; then rlwrap sqlplus "${@}" else echo "Command-line history unavailable: Install the rlwrap package." $ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus "${@}" fi } # Set vi as a command line editor. set -o vi |
You can source the oracle user’s .bashrc account, like this:
. .bashrc |
After you’ve sourced the environment, you can connect as the internal user with the following syntax:
sqlplus / AS sysdba |
Connected as the internal user, run these two commands in sequence:
shutdown IMMEDIATE
startup |
Then, you should be able to connect as the student user or another ordinary user with the following syntax:
CONNECT student/student |
Hope this helps my students and those who want to know how to restart the Oracle instance.
Can’t Display 256 Colors
If you’re reading this post, you most likely are trying to run the Oracle Database 11g or 12c runInstaller program, and it’s failing a critical dependency check and displaying an error like the one below. If so, choose n because if you choose y it won’t launch the Oracle Installer.
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking Temp space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 30824 MB Passed
Checking swap space: must be greater than 150 MB. Actual 3967 MB Passed

>>> Could not execute auto check for display colors using command /usr/bin/xdpyinfo. Check if the DISPLAY variable is set. Failed <<<<
Some requirement checks failed. You must fulfill these requirements before
continuing with the installation,
Continue? (y/n) [n] n |
The first thing to check is whether you’ve the $TERM environment variable. It’ll be set in your env list but may not be set in your .bashrc file. You can see whether it’s set by running the following command:
echo $TERM |
It should return a value, like this:
xterm-256color |
If you didn’t get that value, use the env command to lookup the $TERM. The correct value can be found by running the env command like this:
env | grep -i term |
Add $TERM environment variable to your .bashrc file and source it after the change or reboot the user’s session:
export TERM=xterm-256color |
If it still doesn’t work, some posts ask you to run xclock but you don’t generally install the xhost clients. Those articles assumes you’ve installed the xorg-x11-apps package library. That’s more or less a choice you made when installing the Linux OS. You can check for the presence of the library with the following command as the root user:
rpm -qa xorg-x11-apps |
If the command fails to return a result from the search of Red Hat Package Manager (RPM) libraries, you haven’t installed it. You can install it as the root superuser with this syntax:
yum install -y xorg-x11-apps |
It should display the following result when successful:

Oracle 12c Pre-requisites
Installing any Oracle database is tedious, but the installing the prerequisites can be especially tedious. This post tries to simplify the process by creating a single prereq.sh file for all the prerequisite libraries, except for the oracle-rdbms-server-12cR1-preinstall, which you should run after the prerequisite file.
The prerequisite file should contain the following:
yum install -y binutils \ compat-libstdc++-33 \ compat-libstdc++-33.i686 \ gcc \ gcc-c++ \ glibc \ glibc.i686 \ glibc-devel \ glibc-devel.i686 \ ksh \ libgcc \ libgcc.i686 \ libstdc++ \ libstdc++.i686 \ libstdc++-devel \ libstdc++-devel.i686 \ libaio \ libaio.i686 \ libaio-devel \ libaio-devel.i686 \ libXext \ libXext.i686 \ libXtst \ libXtst.i686 \ libX11 \ libX11.i686 \ libXau \ libXau.i686 \ libxcb \ libxcb.i686 \ libXi \ libXi.i686 \ make \ sysstat \ unixODBC \ unixODBC-devel \ zlib-devel \ zlib-devel.i686 |
You can run the prereq.sh script as the root user like you would source an environment file:
. ./prereq.sh |

After you have installed the prerequisites, you install the oracle-dbms-server-12cR1-preinstall library as the root user. You run the command as the root user like this:
yum install -y oracle-dbms-server-12cR1-preinstall |
You should see the following when it’s successful:

After running the oracle-dbms-server-12cR1-preinstall library, you can navigate through the Applications, Sundry, and Users and Groups to see the following dialog:
It’s hard to tell from the GUI the oracle user’s group. You can find oracle primary user’s group by checking the /etc/passwd file. You will find that oinstall is the primary user’s group.
As always, I hope this helps those trying to install an Oracle Database 12c instance. Please post a comment if you have a better way to load the pre-requisite packages.
Fix VMware Networking
Occasionally, my students loose their network connection when copying their virtual machines. This article shows you how to rebuild your Internet connection.
The first step requires you to identify the port number on your host operating system, which is typically Windows OS or Mac OS X. You can find that by running the following search from a Mac OS X Terminal session or Windows OS Command session.
If you’re on the Mac OS X, you launch a Terminal session and then use the sudo command to open a shell as the root super user, like this:
sudo sh |
As the root super user on Mac OS X , you run the netstat command like this:
sh-3.2# netstat -a | grep 1.ntp | grep -v grep udp4 0 0 192.168.147.1.ntp *.* |
VMware uses the same subdomain with one difference for the gateway, it uses node 2:
192.168.147.2 |
The alternate syntax to find Vmware’s subdomain requires you to use an Administrator account on Windows, like this:
C:\> netstat -a | findstr /C:.ntp |
After you determine the subdomain, you need to ensure VMware is configured correctly. You navigate to the menu and choose Virtual Machine and then Settings from the dropdown menu. The software shows you the following:
Then, click on the Network Adapter under the Removable Devices, and you see the following screen:
You need to make sure that you’re using Internet Sharing, or Share with my Mac. If you’re not using it select it now.
Launch the hosted Linux OS and open a Terminal seesion. Inside the Terminal, you should find the machine’s address as the root address with the ifconfig utility. The technique follows:
[student@localhost ~]$ sudo sh [sudo] password for student: sh-4.2# ifconfig eno16777736: flags=4163<UP,BROADCAST,RUNNING,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 ether 00:0c:29:70:77:64 txqueuelen 1000 (Ethernet) RX packets 34 bytes 4190 (4.0 KiB) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 lo: flags=73<UP,LOOPBACK,RUNNING> mtu 65536 inet 127.0.0.1 netmask 255.0.0.0 inet6 ::1 prefixlen 128 scopeid 0x10<host> loop txqueuelen 0 (Local Loopback) RX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) RX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 frame 0 TX packets 0 bytes 0 (0.0 B) TX errors 0 dropped 0 overruns 0 carrier 0 collisions 0 |
Next, you need to edit some files, they assume the VMware Network Gateway is 192.168.147.2 and the machine’s address is “00:0c:29:70:77:64“. The first file you need to edit is the /etc/resolv.conf file, and it should look like this:
domain localdomain search localdomain nameserver 192.168.147.2 |
The second file you need to edit is the /etc/sysconfig/network file. It should look like this:
# Created by anaconda NETWORKING=yes HOSTNAME=localhost.localdomain GATEWAY=192.168.147.2 |
The third file you need to edit is the /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0 file. It should look like this:
DEVICE=eth0 HWADDR=00:0c:29:70:77:64 ONBOOT=yes NM_CONTROLLED=yes BOOTPROTO=dhcp TYPE=Ethernet DNS1=192.168.147.2 USERCTL=no PEERDNS=yes IPV6INIT=no |
The last step requires that you reboot the machine or run the /etc/rc.d/init.d/network to restart the network. I hope this helps those trying to restore their VMware hosted operating systems network connection.
Fedora LAMP Steps
I posted earlier in the year how to configure a Fedora instance to test PHP code on a local VM. However, I’ve got a few questions on how to find those posts. Here’s a consolidation with links on those steps:
- Go to this blog post and install the
httpdandphplibraries with theyuminstaller. - In the same blog post as step 1 (you can put the sample PHP code into the
/var/www/htmldirectory for testing), connect to theyumshell and remove thephp-mysqllibrary and then install themysqlndlibrary. - Go to this blog post and install the
php-gdlibraries, which enable you to render PNG images stored as binary streams in MySQL.
As always, I hope that helps.
