Dayo,
I hpe you are not trying to install Oracle 8i enterprise edition on Windows Me. Remember Windows Me is just a glorified senior brother of Windows 98 SE, and of course ORA 8i ED will NOT install in this environment for obvious reasons. However it will install on Windows 2000 PE and Adv. Server (both based on WinNT WS and Server respectively).
My guess and suggestion is that you should try to install Oracle 8i Lite on Windows ME and trust the installation should go without any problem.

    Hi,
    Sorry, this is an old entry aka a bug in the docu. Windows 2000 is not supported possible anymore by CE, (its not tested anymore). Most likely Windows XP without passowrd account also does not work anymore.

    Can you describe the problem in a bit more detail? What error do you get when you try to connect to the database? Can you test the DSN successfully? Can you tnsping the database?
    Are you installing the Oracle client or the Oracle database on Windows 2000? Which version of Oracle (8.1.5, 8.1.6, 8.1.7, etc)?

  • Can I install Oracle 8.1.7 Enterprise Edition on Windows 2000 Professional

    Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I have Windows 2000 professional edition loaded on my PC and I'm not sure what it allows. Can I load Oracle 8.1.7 Enterprise Edition of the database on this operating system, or do I need to load windows 2000 server software.
    Thanks
    Ryan

    Its a problem with oracle and pentium 4 processors actually. The solution involves renaming or deleting the symcjit.dll in the 8i installation package after you've copied the whole Cd onto your HDD!
    I've tried this and it install OK, with a few errors along the way, now I can't get the apache server working, nor on the 9i AS that I've installed as well. Let me know if you get anything useful please?

    This resolved my problem as well. I am on Windows 2000 server, SP2. The problem installing Oracle 8.1.7.0.0 standard edition exhibited itself by briefly changing the cursor to an hourglass and then returning to ready. The executable JREW.EXE would briefly execute in processes and then stop.
    I copied the installation media to a server drive and renamed symcjit.dll and the installer worked correctly.
    Thank you to Yugandhar for this solution.
    We too faced some of those problems ie setup.exe wont even run in Windows XP pro, p4 system..the culprit is symcjit.dll. Its the problem in p4 to run this dll. After lot of research, just rename it and all is set to go.

  • Oracle 8.1.7 client installer won't work under windows 2000

    I am trying to run the latest oracle client install of 8.1.7 on my windows 2000 PC and when I double click on it, it show the hour glass for a few seconds, then nothing happens. No screens come up at all. I have a Dell PC with an ATI rage 16 MB ultra card and I have dowlnloaded the latest jre 1.1.8 and nothing helps. If I try another kind of PC like my ibm, the installer works fine. Dell has no answers??

    I found the solution on another discussion group and it worked for WinNT4 SP6a:
    First copy your CD content to your hard disk (by example c:\temp), then rename file "symcjit.dll" (by example "symcjit.old") in directory "c:\temp\Stage\Components\Oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin".
    Finally, run Setup.exe in directory "c:\temp\Install\Win32".

    Intel says there is a bug in oracle's OUI as well other swing based programs. The solution is to copy the CD to local drive and add -nojit as first parameter to JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS e.g. JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS="-nojit -mx32m"
    This will enable OUI to run. Even after installing oracle Net80 conf. asst won't start due to same reason.
    Go to HOME\admin\tools\ and edit netca.cl and netasst.cl to add same -nojit before -classpath.
    Do this for every tool that gives this prob such DBA studio...

  • Problem with oracle 8i installation on windows 2000 pro

    Hi all
    i'm installing oracle 8i enterprize edition on windows 2000 professional.
    At the end of the installation,in the configuration tools step when it says that
    the following tools will be automatically started for you etc...
    the oracle database configuration assistant keep failing and i get the following message in the text file dbSilentCreate
    < 8I\starterdb is an invalid command line argument. >
    what should i do? anyone familiar with this problem ?
    Constancio

    This should be a workaround for your problem. Let me know if it works or not.
    1. Create a temporary directory on your server.
    2. Copy the contents of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 1.
    3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for the existence of the filename symcjit.dll.
    4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.
    5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x.

  • Oracle 8i Installation problem on Windows 2000

    I had purchased a Oracle8i (MS/Windows NT CD (E-Commerce), part Number A94674-01 in the month of Jun 2000.
    When I tried to install Oracle 8i personal edition of Windows 2000 ver.
    The installation got completed smoothly. But after that I was not able to start my database and even Windows 2000 crashed after that. After every crash I reinstalled windows 2000 and oracle 8i but the result was same. My whole purpose of purchasing Oracle 8i on windows 2000 is getting defeated.
    I would request you send me solution what to do ? Or replace my Oracle S/W. Its useless for me right now.
    My M/C configuration is
    Dell P-III (256 MB, 300 Mhz) with sound card.
    20 GB Hard Disk of 7200 rpm.
    The primary O/S is Windows 98.
    The Hard disk is partitioned into no. Of logical drives.
    They are like 2GB of each (C, D, E, F) and G 10 GB
    C part ion has got Windows. And G has got windows 2000. There is enough space in all part ions.
    I would appreciate if you can solve my problem as soon as possible.
    Sincerely,

  • How to install Oracle 9i EE on a clustered server (Windows 2000)

    I need to install Oracle 9i on Clustered server (Windows 2000 Server)with Oracle Fail safe. There are 2 Nodes and one Clustered disk with RAID 5.
    The documentation from Oracle is NOT very helpful as it does not specify the installation of Oracle DB on the 2 nodes.Where will the control files reside etc for each node.
    Any inputs will be highly appreciated
    Thanks

    Hi,
    reply to my own question:
    In the docs provided with the downloads for Oracle Database Server 9i x64, I found that this version requires either
    - Windows Server 2003 Datacenter Edition for 64-Bit Itanium 2 Systems
    or
    - Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition for 64-Bit Itanium 2 Systems
    So I guess, the only X64 platform being supported under Windows Server 2003 (both Datacenter / Enterprise Editions) is Itanium CPUs ...
    ... though this is not (!!!) clearly stated in the download link (other/newer versions are listed more precisely - I guess it's a matter of an old link: no Intel Xeon / AMD Opterons were available (???) when Oracle 9i database server was published).
    So I'll give it a try with 10g database server ;-)))
