It is also important to have functional transistors in the circuit. Devices with an HFE, or hfe, of Zero seldom provide adequate gain.Constanyine has verified this, I believe.The circuit in post #1 will work if you add a startup circuit to make begin oscillating.
Add a larger cap, maybe 100uf, from +5 thru a 1k resistor to ground. Then connect the junction of the cap and resistor to the base of Q1.
It should begin to oscillate at a rate easy to see.
