I installed Oracle XE on a Virtual Machine. I did come up with 2 issues -
1. The VM had 512Mb of RAM and oracle needed more. Had to increase the swap space. This page gives instructions on doing this on ubuntu.
2. The VM was on an internal network, and could be accessed by its IP but not its hostname. This made the post-install oracle configuration tasks to fail (found this out through oracle’s install logs). So even if Oracle XE was installed, you could neither access it through sqlplus or through its web-based admin interface. We fixed this by changing the VM’s hostname to localhost, then un-intsalling and re-installing oracle XE.

And then don’t forget to run

after the installation!

:colorscheme koehler

Save and restart your MacVim / gVim. And that should be it.

(You can easily access the .vimrc file by going to Edit>Startup settings from your menu)

Here is one solution

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

require 'rubygems'
require 'faster_csv'

#put everything in an array
array_of_arrays = FasterCSV.read("some_file.csv") 

# remove headers
array_of_arrays.slice!(0) 

array_of_arrays.each{|row|
  puts row
}

Another solution is

#!/usr/bin/ruby -w

require 'rubygems'
require 'faster_csv'

# setting the headers option to true or :first_row gets rid of the headers
FasterCSV.foreach('some_file.csv', :headers => :first_row) {|row|
    puts row
}

1. Note: dbdeploy does not run your change scripts, you have to run the script it outputs with an sql task
2. If you get errors like 
   > taskdef class net.sf.dbdeploy.AntTarget cannot be found

   it means that the dbdeploy.jar is not in your classpath.
