Quick Demo - ORDS 22.1 Installation and configuration on Oracle Linux VM in OCI

Today I will show you how to install ords to an Oracle Linux instance.
I already have an Oracle database set up.
but I do not have ords installed or activated yet.

First I will create a VM on OCI
then I will install ords and java

ORDS 22.1 does not support java 8 anymore
that's why we will proceed with java 17..

Please make sure you visit the official documentation on:
https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/o...

and also the useful walkthrough on:
https://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive...

----

add Oracle Linux 8 Repos to the Linux instance (if not added already)
sudo yum-config-manager --add-repo=http://yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinu...

install ords:
sudo yum install ords -y

download java 17:
wget https://download.oracle.com/java/17/a...

install java 17:
sudo rpm -i jdk-17.0.3.1_linux-x64_bin.rpm

configure and run ords:
sudo su - oracle
ords --config /home/oracle/ords install
ords --config /home/oracle/ords serve

serve ords in the background
nohup ords --config /home/oracle/ords serve &

tail -f nohup.txt

firewall and iptables configuration:
sudo firewall-cmd --zone=public --add-port 8443/tcp --permanent
sudo firewall-cmd --list-all
sudo firewall-cmd --reload
sudo iptables -I INPUT -p tcp --dport 8443 -m comment --comment "# ORDS 8443 #" -j ACCEPT

the default connection will go through here:
https://132.145.20.143:8443/ords/sql-developer/

the other connections will go through the connection name you defined
https://132.145.20.143:8443/ords/orclpdb1/sql-developer
