Oracle 12c docker setup on Apple M1

I am trying to run Oracle db in docker on M1 Mac. I have tried images from both store/oracle/database-enterprise:12.2.0.1-slim and container-registry.oracle.com/database/enterprise:12.2.0.1-slim but getting the same error.

docker run -d -it --name oracle -v $(pwd)/db/oradata:/ORCL store/oracle/database-enterprise:12.2.0.1-slim

I also tried non-slim version and by providing the --platform linux/amd64 to the docker command. Result is same.

Here's the result of docker logs -f oracle

Is it the issue with M1 or I my configuration

Solution

  • Oracle Database on M1 Mac

    This is a doozy.. Oracle Database isn't supported on MacOS, however, with Docker virtualizing linux, it can be. Unfortunately, even though Docker supports M1 Mac ARM virtualization, Oracle Database relies heavily on some low level kernel calls that Docker and Rosetta 2 can't handle. This leads us to the only possible solution to run locally: Using full emulation (a virtual machine).

    1. Install Lima with HomeBrew. Lima is a sort of unofficial "macOS subsystem for Linux" with support for running VMs with different architecture (like running an x86 OS on top of ARM MacOS):
    brew install lima
    1. Create a new Impish Ubuntu (default) Virtual Machine:
    limactl start
    1. Select Open an editor to override the configuration.
    2. Using the default editor (vi) modify the arch field to the following (i to enter insert mode, make the change, ESC to enter command mode, :wq to exit and save).
    arch: "x86_64"
    1. Run the newly created default Lima VM, and change directories to the new VM's home directory. (All commands past this should be run in the newly started shell unless specified otherwise).
    lima
cd ~
    1. Install Docker for Ubuntu in the Lima VM.
    2. Add your user to the docker group, and activate the changes to be able to run docker commands without root access:
    sudo usermod -aG docker $USER
newgrp docker
    1. Run Image from docker hub
    docker login
docker run -d -p 1521:1521 --name oracle store/oracle/database-enterprise:12.2.0.1
    1. Connect with default values
    username/password@SID: sys/Oradoc_db1@ORCLCDB
