Nothing else in the error logs? Was the last sentence missing words?

I think if you can run your stuff on something that's not Orrible, and you
don't anticipate heavy loads or Orrible-specific stored procs, you're better
using My/Postgres. Orrible is harder to install and troubleshoot than
My/Postgres. Almost 8 years ago, I had to use #$%^ing strace to
translate "An Error Occurred" to "it's looking for a file
called /usr/u01/blah/foo/iso8859-1.something and not finding it" while
installing Orrible for testing purposes. (They may have fixed this, but it
was extraordinarily lousy error reporting.)

This isn't an error, just info. The startup script could've run as user
oracle, started various daemon processes, and exited. Or the daemons
could've barfed miserably. This is where you check the app-specific
logfile(s) for more info, as you probably won't find any in that file.

At least it's a "supported" distro. That will make things easier.
