I've been using VSCode's remote containers capabilities for some time - such a helpful extension. Problem is, Docker Desktop changed their licensing model and devs are being told not to install it on our machines anymore.
Does anybody know how to setup vscode-remote on a Win 10 system without Docker Desktop?
Is there a way to use other container engines? This could be directly installing on Windows OS or installing on WSL2.
Also, could somebody from MSFT update the remote containers setup instructions to reflect this alternative approach?
I want to Install Oracle Database Express on macbook m1 but it only supports linux and windows, I downloaded Sql developer but I m unable to download Oracle database. I tried to install using docker and OrcaleVM but both attempt were unsuccessfull. I also tried playonmac but it only supports x86 software and x64 software crashes when i try to run. What should i do to install oracle database express on macbook with M1 chip??
Looks like the Oracle Database team hasn't released a build for ARM chipsets yet.
I had a similar issue (w/ docker) and solved it by following these steps:
Uninstall docker desktop if installed
Run brew install colima
Run brew install docker
Run colima start --memory 4 --arch x86_64
Run an Oracle DB image using docker (e.g docker run -e ORACLE_RANDOM_PASSWORD=yes -p 1521:1521 -d gvenzl/oracle-xe)
This should successfully run a container w/ an Oracle DB on the new M1 Macs.
This doesn't answer the question directly, but... A solution worth considering for M1 Mac users is using the Oracle-cloud database. It's "always free" so it's not a trial that expires after a certain time period. It's essentially having your own oracle database in the cloud that you can connect to natively from your own machine

It seams that the only way today is to use parallel desktop with an ARM Windows.
To download it you have to register for the Windows Insider Program:

It should works:

I've been struggling to find a solution to this for the past couple of days, and finally have a halfway-decent solution. I've had success running Oracle Linux 8 (x86_64) with UTM, and then installing Oracle DB 21c EE in the VM. The setup, configuration and installation is completely manual and will take a significant chunk of time, but the outcome is pretty satisfactory. Mouse didn't work for me, so the GUI is pretty much useless. From what I've read, hardware acceleration doesn't work either, so my recommendation is to stay away from the UI as much as you can. I used keyboard to navigate the OL8 installer, and selected the "server" installation mode with headless packages. The install script (here) from the vagrant project was quite helpful in installing and configuring the DB. Performance-wise, I've found it to be quite snappy (to be fair, I've just tested the basics). The VM consumes ~5GB RAM of the 8GB I've allocated to it. In terms of CPU, I've allocated four cores to the VM, but I haven't seen it use any more than 50% of one core. Again, I use it for very basic CRUD requests, so that's all I've tested it with. And just to give a little context, I'm on the M1 MBA with 16GB RAM.
Regarding Apple M1 specifically, it is a 'known' issue.
Below solution worked for me: You probably installed node with either nvm or brew, by doing that you will install the arm64 version and get this error. The only solution for now is to download and install node from the homepage directly.

I am facing the below issue while trying to install Oracle 11gR2 on windows 8.
Please help me resolving the issue
After this prompt the installer automatically closes down.
I am New to Oracle, i tried looking into multiple forums but no luck.
I can advice you two things:
Your Java version could not meet requirements. Download the database file which includes Java.
Set "compatibility mode" to Windows 7 on setup.exe file.
I am trying to install the Oracle SOA stack of products on my MacBook but I am stuck at one very crucial point. Need a database on my machine for OER but cannot figure out what to do?
Here is what I have already done:
Successfully installed Oracle SOA Suite 12c
I have downloaded OER
I have tried installing Oracle Database 12c, with Linux version even though as there is no download choice for Mac. I faced following error : ./runInstaller: line 252: /Users/madhu/Oracle/product/18.0.0/dbhome_1/install/.oui: cannot execute binary file
I checked supported database for OER but did not find MySQL or SQLlite or any other product than Oracle and Microsoft SQL server.
Microsoft SQL server is obviously not supported in MacOS
So at the as for OER a database is essential and I cannot install any supported database on MacBook.
Can you please help me?
Even if the installer script doesn't instantly fail, that doesn't mean that the Linux version of ODB 12c will magically work on OS X.
Install ODB or SQL Server on something else and configure OER to connect to it. That "something else" can be a virtual machine running on your Mac.
Install VirtualBox (or your preferred hypervisor);
Install Linux or Windows on a virtual machine;
Install and configure Oracle Database or SQL Server on that VM;
Consult the manual to configure networking for your virtual machine so the database is accessible from your host machine.
WebLogic will run on the Mac but FMW/SOA will not - at least not stable. Neither will the database.
& I know I teach/install/admin these products and am a certified Oracle trainer. I’ve tried...my time was worth more than it took to try and get it to work outside a vm-natively. I assume yours is too.
Unless you are actively trying to learn how to install them, then yes #backgammon is right, install them in a VM.
BUT, if you just want to use them and are not as interested in installation, then use one of the prebuilt -preconfigured FMW virtual box images here that will run on the Mac under virtual box.
Then Install OER in that image.
But, be advised OER is no longer sold by Oracle, even though it’s available for download.
It has been replaced by the API cloud service product.
Microsoft has released the relational DB engine part of the SQL Server for Linux, including Ubuntu 16.01.
Is it possible to use this to install it on Debian (Jessie, for example)? If so, What different requirements would I have to consider to get it working?
I know this is pretty new, but I'd appreciate any insight into this.
Yes, it is possible. You'll need to overcome a SSL dependency by using jessie-backports source. I wasn't able to get the mssql-tools package to install however. I also tested the latest version of Kubuntu. SQL and mssql-tools installed without a hitch there.
