Can't install Personal Oracle 8i for NT

So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
- Server name NONE
- Filename NT817 Personal.zip
- Date/Time 2/7/2002
- Browser + Version IE 5.5
- O/S + Version NT 4.0
- Error Msg NONE
I downloaded and unzipped the above named file. When I try to run setup.exe, the cursor blinks to an hour glass for a milisecond and then nothing. Some advice I've had from others has been to:
1. Check for a folder called c:\ProgramFiles\oracle\inventory\locks and make sure there
is nothing in there. Folder does not exist.
2. Make sure I have sufficient free space on drive c: to allow for the log files. I have approx 500mb free space.
Any assistance would be most appreciated.
Thanks,
Scott

  • Drop table command in Personal Oracle 8i for windows98

    I installed personal oracle 8i for windows 98. The database version is 8.1.5. When I try to drop a table that does not exist sqlplus hangs. Then I have to do ctrl+alt+del to cancel the program. Because of this problem I am not able to succesfully run the developer 6.0 admin tables script. Any program that drops a table that doesnt exist seems to hang. After this I have to shutdown the database and start it to work further.
    Has anyone encountered this problem. Is this a bug or is there something wrong in my installation.

  • Can i install/run  oracle 8i in win xp

    can i install/run oracle 8i in windows xp ?

    yes u can install ora 8i in win xp pro
    Windows XP Home Edition
    Oracle 8i is not certified on windows XP. Even if yes, it must be Windows XP Professional.
    You can install Oracle8i on windows XP Home Edition, try like this:
    1 - Copy your Oracle CD into hard disk in your
    machine. For example Copy from oracle8i CD into C:\Oracle\ ...
    2 - Search the two files named Symcjit.dll on the D drive (where you have copied Oracle8i. You can found them in (example):
    C:\Oracle\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1
    \DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll
    3 - Rename this file (Example): symcjit_back.dll (make sure to find two files and rename them)
    4 - Execute the Oracle setup.exe from C:\Oracle\setup.exe
    =================================================================
    When Oracle 8i dies on the install or the installer hangs, here is the fix for this, make sure that you have Service Pack 2 installed.
    1. \JRE\1.3.1\ From Sun. (You can download java program at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html)
    2. Install the java file.
    There is also a problem in the installation disk.
    3. Make a copy of the Oracle 8i disk on the local hard disk.
    4. Do a search for the two files called symcjit.dll and rename them for example: symcjit.old.
    5. Install Oracle from the win32 directory.

    Clayton:
    The Installation Guide for 10gR2 section for Solaris OS contains the instructions for setting up the kernel variables in Solaris 10. First, they talk about /etc/system in Solaris 8 and 9, then how to use command "prctl" in Solaris 10.

    Reply
    Dear Friends,
    I installed oracle 9ias. and then i hosted my form,report into that server . All was working properly.
    at this time my database was into another machine.
    then i installed oracle 9i database into the same machine
    (as the oracle 9ias was installed)
    at the instalation of oracle 9i database one error comes
    and shows that Agent configuration Assistant Installation
    fail.
    but After installation of database it work properly.
    there is no problem.
    but when I try to run from through web(by using oracle 9ias)
    it gives Internal error(500).
    i check and find that my appache server for 9ias is working properly and in services of windows 2000 no error comes.

    .dmg.part is not a complete file..  It usually indicates that the entire file has not been downloaded yet.  Are you sure you downloaded the entire file?   (i recommend updating itunes through  > Software Update

  • I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox

    I can't install the Flash plugin for Firefox (Firefox version 1.5.0). I've tried to install the latest version 9.0.16.0 from the Adobe Download Centre. There are no error messages or warnings during the installation.
    The Flash plugin for IE is working fine.
    I've tried everything, uninstall the pre-installed version (7), re-install FireFox, uninstall all plugins, download and install everything over and over..... still the same problem.

    Hi Stephan,
    Thans for your reaction and suggestion.
    I've cleaned up the register, deleted all the macromedia and flash keys.
    Restarted, installed Flash plugin again, IE is working fine (again) but Firefox (and Opera!) only showing the message "Flash plugin needed" when I try to display a site with Flash content.
    I have the same combination working on several desktops, does it have anything to do with te pre-installed software from Toshiba?
    I have two Toshiba Sattelite's P100 with both exactly the same problems! Flash on IE working, Opera an Firefox NOT.
