However that depends on what you would like to accomplish.

 

I know that eventually I will be handling thousands of transactions a minuet (estimated ½ million transactions per day in less then 18 months) from a slue of vded’ed front end Apache Webs Servers attached to another group of vded’ed Tomcat Servers running some in house Java.  I am worried that MySQL is not going to be able to handle the load.  I was going to start with Oracle XE because the move up to larger products is (supposedly) as easy as installing a license.

 

Our predicted growth cycle is fairly rapid until we get close to our predicted saturation rate, and some tables are likely to hit 100-200 million records in very short order, so I need a strong DB to handle the load.  The problem is I am trying to be very frugal until we see positive, stable, cash flow, which will not be until the middle to end of next year.

"...or should I just give it up and run MySQL like every other idiot on the net.?"

You could always be like the rest of us........ However that depends on what you would like to accomplish.

So I spent an inordinate amount of time kicking a virtual dedicated machine to get oracle installed, and failed.  So I put up an old box, installed Oracle, and life was good.  But now Oracle will not run on the dedicated box either.  I get the same symptoms in that it says the DB and net listener are started but I can not connect to the Oracle admin web page, however I get .  Does anyone successfully use Oracle 10g Express or should I just give it up and run MySQL like every other idiot on the net.?

 

I get the following error in my /var/log/sercure

This is my own CENT OS 5 box.
