Re: Autostarting Oracle 8.0.5 for Linux

On other ports
scripts in rc0.d and rc2.d should be sufficient. The only thing that needs to go in the script are the following two lines su -c oracle dbstartup
su -c oracle lsnrctl start
(for startup)
and
su -c oracle dbshutdown
su -c oracle lnsrctl stop
(for shutdown)

The crucial thing is the scripts do not run as root, but as oracle.
