Installation Problems with Oracle 8i and Win98

Yesterday I tried installing Oracle 8i Personal Edition from CD. I completed installation up to "Database Creation in Progress", initializing phase. It stuck at 85%. The CD did not make any noise, and it stayed at 85% for 53 minutes.
Today, I downloaded Oracle 8i. It unzipped with no problem. I uninstalled, then tried to install. I got numerous .dll file errors in writing to file c.
The CPU is 500mz, 128 S-DRAM PC-133 Memory, there is 32 gig free on hard drive, Browser is IE Ver.5.5, O/S is Win 98.
Thank you
So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.

Software Installation Problems with Media Source and Nomad Explo

Hello Creative Users,
recently I had to reinstall my operating system on the PC. I have an IBM Thinkpad R30 with a Sitecom USB2.0 pccard. I am running WinXP Pro SP2 with all latest updates.
I have a Nomad Jukebox Zen Xtra with Firmware .20.08 and an update harddri've of 80GB.
As long as I was running the software on my previous installation everything worked fine.
I installed the driver .26.02. This recognized the Jukebox. Musicmatch is able to communicate to the Jukebox and recognizes all files on it.
When I installed Nomad Explorer I got an error ctregserv failed because ctin...dll is not found.
When I tried to install Media Source from the original disk it showed an error after 30% Media Source not found. Install Media Source before continuing.
This is what I received now with all verisons of Media Source and Noamd Explorer incl. .30.0.
Can someone help me as synchronizing with Musicmatch is a pain.
Thanks
Rolf

Hi everyone,
as I saw many questions regarding installation problems with Mediasource or Nomad Explorer
in this forum I will answer my own question right here. I was pointed to the answer by a friend with a similar problem on some other software.
When trying to install the Creative software under WinXP SP2 I happens that the registration does not work. the reason are missing write attributes to the keys for
Creative software. To correct that go to: Start, Run and enter regedit. Hit ok and you are in the registration editor.
Find the Creative location unde HKEYS_SOFTWARE. Click right mouse button and choose
properties.
Check full access for your user as well the system user. click on advanced and mark both all the users you want to install from. Check the lower box below the user window sayin something about roghts being propagetd to lower folders etc. Cklick conform and ok, click confirm on previous screen and close regedit.
Now you should be ok and able to install.
Regards
Rolf

Installation problem with Oracle 8.1.7 on Mandrake 8.1

Hi all,
I am trying to install Oracle 8.1.7 (Rel 3) on Mandrake Linux 8.1. I changed all the parameters, tested everything, created the users (oracle & apache) and groups (oinstall & dba) as per the documentation. I downloaded the Oracle's "tar" file from the Oracle's web site. I unzipped that in "/shared" directory on my PC. I changed to "/shared/Disk1" directory and gave "./runInstaller". A window is opening with the following buttons.
About
Deinstall products
Exit
Help
Installed products
Previous (disabled)
Next
Only "About" and "Deinstall products" buttons are working. None of the other buttons are working. When I press "Next" nothing is happening.
Could anybody help with this problem. I really appreciate it.
Thank you very much in advance,
Murali.

Hi all,
This problem got solved. Its very silly thing. Number lock should be off, when you are running Oracle Installer. It worked for me. (This is for Mandrake Linux 8.1)

Installation problems with oracle 9iAS v1.0.2.2.2a

Dear all, i had been having a problem to install oracle 9iAS v1.0.2.2.2a on Windows 2000 Service Pack 2 edition for the past 5 days.
I had read through the installation guide and follow steps by steps instructions. but the installer would just stop at 100% "Copying welcome.html or Copying demo.gif". It only leave with a step that it would reach the configuration setup. I am wondering anyone encounter this problem.
I had tried to install on notebook and desktop with the same platform. On the notebook, i have oracle 9i database release 2 installed on it. Thinking it might be a compatibility problem, i tried installing oracle 9iAS on a desktop with a oracle 9i database client. But i would want the application server and database to run on the same machine. Should I wait for the oracle 9iAS release 2 for NT or anyone have any advise on my problem.
i would appreicate if anyone can help. thank you.

Maybe this is a bit of a simple question. But, do you remember how long you waited, when the progress bar indicated 100%? The installation progress status does indicate "100%" for a while, doing some "last minute" stuff, before moving on to the "Configuration Tools" phase.
Yes, as Ashesh stated, Oracle9iAS 10222a and Oracle9i Database can co-exist on the same machine, as long as they are in separate ORACLE_HOMEs. And, yes, the structure you described (\oracle\database and \oracle\iASHome) does qualify as "separate ORACLE_HOMEs".
Cheers!

Various Installation Problems with Portege R100 and Windows XP

Hello,
i recently purchased a used Portege R100. It came without OS and i wanted to install XP SP2.
I know that restores only work with suited PCMCIA drives, but the HDD is formatted, so there is no recovery possible i guess.
Here are my problems:
- with my very old Freecom PCMCIA CD-Drive the Windows Setup CD is recognized and it starts loading XP drivers until it wants to start Copying the installiation files --> then I get the Windows Bluescreen with the 00x7 error (virus or driver)
- the same happens with my old W2k Pro installation disk.
- With the even older W98SE strange things occur too: The installation seems to work properly, but when it comes to boot with W98SE for the first time the systems hangs up with pixelgarbage.
- Making the 6 Bootdisks with makeboot did not work either.
- I also tried MS-DOS! And guess what! That worked! Loading the Freecom drivers and copying the Windows I386 folder to my hdd with volkov commander (something similar to NortonCommander) worked too! So i had hav the files on my disk but after running winnt in the i386 folder, the system hangs after a while, when it starts to copy files to a temporary folder.
So i nearly tried everything i know. right now i am downloading knoppix to try that.
I have run Memtest86 and the Diskmanager 9 to test RAM and HDD, both finished withut errors, so the main parts involed in the setup process seem to work. May it be that my IDE controller is broken?
I have no idea, WHY windows won't install!
Help is warmly welcome!!
Thanks,
Christian
Does

Hello
i fixed the problem:
The method of installing the i386 files to the DOS Disk and running winnt works. I was to impatient. Windows setup starts copying the files to a temporary folder. Nromally you see the info bottom right, waht files are copied at the moment. This is a good indicator that the system is still working.
My setup does not show waht files are copied to the temporary folder. But it still works. HDD is spinning all the time. Due to the "non-Sound" of the R100 i was sure it hung up. But it simly did not. After lets say 20 minutes, the setup process went on as usual....
Now i have XP in the R100 and all teh drivers installed. What a wonderfull notebook, really!
Thanks for the hints anyway...

Problems with Oracle 9i and Tomcat

Hello,
I am running Tomcat and Oracle 9i. I am trying to get my connection pooling working so I can use a JNDI. But I am having a problem.
When I include everything in a jsp file it connects to the database and produces a result.
Connection conn = null;
try
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(
"jdbcracle:thin:@xxx.xxx.xx.xx:1521:dev",
"happy",
"xxxx");
When I have it in the Context I just get:
A Java.nullpointerexception
My server.xml is:
<parameter>
<name>url</name>
<value>jdbcracle:thin:@xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx:1521:dev</value>
</parameter>
With the same parameters for username and password as above.
My servlet is:
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
if(ctx == null )
throw new Exception("Oops - No Context");
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/database");
if (ds != null)
conn = ds.getConnection();

Installation problem with oracle 11i e-business suite

Hai iam installing 11 i financials for the first time on windows server -2003
i have completed the first stages of validation system configuration .
and later while extracting files from the location it shows error as
1.APPS_ORACLE_HOME environmental file was not created? please tell me how this will be done in detail>
2.Apps configuration was not created?
3.RW-00023 -ERROR-DBC File was not created?
please give the replies in detail
thanks
.

Thanks to previous responder for tip regarding JDK/JRE anchor strings. I'm not sure if that is a problem. After letting the install process (java.exe) run for over an hour, I finally got past the InstantiateFile step. It looks like the process just takes a long time with no visible progress sometimes. After 5-6 hrs, it looked like the install succeeded (for the most part). There were still some errors in the error logs related to the Concurrent Manager (TNS-12541: TNS:no listener) I believe. If anyone has insight on what this error msg means, I would greatly appreciate a reply.
The other problem I am tackling right now is how to explicitly set the Forms processing mode to HTTP rather than the default socket mode. According to the 11i docs (and Forms Developer 6i docs), you should only have to set "connectMode=HTTP" in the config file, appsweb.cfg, to make this happen. However, when I try bringing up a client form, the form hangs. So, obviously, something is amiss. A related question is whether one can run Forms in only HTTP mode and not HTTPS (and thus avoid having to install SSL). I would greatly appreciate any insight from fellow users.

Installation problemes with oracle 9.2 on SLES9

Hey,
i want to install Oracle 9.2 on SLES9, but shall i start the runInstaller in the shell?
'Cause whenever i want to start it in the shell, i get an error:
Initializing Java Virtual MAchine from /tmp/OraInstall2005-09-19_01-43-28PM/jre/bin/java. Please wait...

Can someone help me?
Thanx Daniel

Hi.
Looks like you are missing some packages.
Have you installed the following packages:
* glibc-2.3.3
* gcc-3.3.3
* gcc-c++-3.3.3
* libaio-0.3.98
* libaio-devel-0.3.98
* make-3.80
* openmotif-libs-2.2.2-519.1
* orarun-1.8-109
I was not able to find this information in the 9i R2 installation guide, however, the release notes for 9.2.0.4 gives a more detailed description on the pre-installation tasks.
This document could be found on technet under the following link:

Good luck

Installation problem with oracle 10g release 1 in RHEL ES 4 platform

Hi,
I am facing such a problem. I want to install Oracle 10g release 1.
I am using linux 86_64
os is RHEL ES 4 UPGRADE 5 X_86_64
When i put the command ./runInstaller It shows os is not supported.
Is there any way to install this oracle version.
Can u please suggest which version os is suitable for this.
please suggest.
Thanks & regards

WHICH 10gR1 software do you use? Oracle provides different versions, you need 10.1.0.3 for Linux x86-64 from the OTN download page.
By the way I would install 10gR2.

Installation problem with LV8.2 and VISION 8.2

I have installed LV8.2, then installed NI Vision v8.2 Development Module. When I made a new blank vi and put vision function icon into it, the dialog box came out ( as attached below). I don't know why, please help me.

Good morning Trinight,
The VI that you are using, IMAQ Create.VI, is actually installed by the Vision Acquisition Software cd, and is part of the NI-IMAQ driver. What is the version of the IMAQ driver that you have installed? Is this error consistent among all IMAQ VI's? Does the same thing happen with Vision functions, such as IMAQ Overlay.VI?
Please respond and I'll do my best to help out!

I'm facing the same error message while install Siebel 8.0 on OEL. But before I had this ksh problem, it complains about disc space first, and I actually has plenty of disk space under the directory (it needs only 0.7 G and I have 17G free). Anybody has encountered such problem before?

Problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition

Hello all,
I have a problem with Oracle 11g(32 bit) installation on windows 7 ultimate edition (32 bit).
I have successfully installed it immediately after OS installation. But today, i have decided to deinstall it and go for Oracle 10g version for 32 bit.
Everything went normal during installation, but i can see the services is not present in services.msc. Also its throwing some exception for dbca, netca
Now i tried to deinstall it and again go for 11g. But even the same story here..
Can anybody give me a solution for this..
-Regards
Rajesh Menon

SaqibNo need to install a fresh OS. That's like tearing your house down just because you wired a lamp wrong and blew a circuit breaker.
There are MeaLink notes on how to eradicate an Oracle install from Windows, but it boils down to this:
Stop all Oracle services
In the registery:
- Delete all oracle services from the register (HKLM\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet
- Delete the entire Oralce folder from HKLM\Software
reboot
Delete the ORACLE_HOME directory and any other Oracle related directories/files. Offhand, it seems like there is an Oracle directory under Program Files.
reboot
