How did you solved it ? What folder structure does the Dockerfile expect ? — Victor

I had the same issue and solved it by:

downloading "Linux x86-64" from https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/oracle-database-software-downloads.htm
unzip both files into the same folder. In the end, you will have one single "database" folder where you had just unzip both files.
(just for the sake of the example you gave) move this folder (the "database" folder) into the "install_folder" folder
execute docker run --privileged --name oracle11g -p 1521:1521 -v path/to/your/install_folder:/install jaspeen/oracle-11g . The idea here is that the value you set for the "path/to/your/install_folder" to be the location of the folder that contains the "database" folder. In your case is it the "install_folder" folder. That -v flag is actually mounting your "install_folder" into docker container at "/install" location.

It will take a while until the process ends. It should first output the following:

Database is not installed. Installing...
Installing Oracle Database 11g
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...

When you can connect to it with credentials below, then it is up&running:

username/password: SYS/oracle
SID: orcl

Note: I had tried more than one release from Oracle's download site until I found the lucky one. For example, in one situation the console just exited without any reason. When I typed docker ps, it showed that container exited with status 255 (which I did not find helpful).

I also found inspiration from here: https://programmer.group/install-oracle-11g-using-docker.html

Download database installation files from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index-092322.html and unpack them to install_folder. Run container and it will install oracle and create database:

docker run --privileged --name oracle11g -p 1521:1521 -v :/install jaspeen/oracle-11g

How should be the folder structure look like after unpacking ? I am trying to run command, but "Installation files not found. Unzip installation files into mounted(/install) folder" comes over and over again. I have downloaded 11.2.0.2.0 zLinux64 files and unzip them into a new folder I have created and named "install_folder". It has a "database" folder inside and a lot more inside the "database" folder. It is still displaying the same error. I have also tried to move all of the files under "install_folder" directly. Still, the same ...
