Installing Oracle 11g database (release 2) on Windows 7 Professional 64bit

Hi All,
I am having a problem installing the Oracle database, I go to the site and download the 2 Oracle zip files.
I create a directory C:\temp\
I unzip "1of2" and place the "database" folder in my "temp" folder.
Question 1: In the "2of2" do I take the database/stage/components and place them in the "1of2" database/stage/components folder? not sure how to merge the contents of the zips but this seems like the logical thing to do.
Then I run setup.exe.
Oracle Universal Installer:
Screen 1: I enter email, and uncheck the oracle support box "i wish to receive security updatesvia My Oracle Support".
Note: little "connection failed" popup box, I check it's box "I want to remain uninformed if critical security issues in my configuration", click continue.
Screen 2: install database software only.
Screen 3: Single instance database installation.
Screen 4: I select "English"
Screen 5: I choose to install "Enterprise Edition"
Screen 6: it shows me Oracle base C:\app\<myuser>
software location: C:\app\<myuser>\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1
Screen 7: validating target environment to meet minimum installation loading bar.
ERROR: gets to 100% and the entire OUI abruptly closes with no warning or error message. No further Installation or anything.
please provide so insight on this, I am total at a loss right now and need to get this working.
thank you,
Josefina

    Telling us that you are using 11.1 helps. But it is far from a complete description of the environment. What edition of the database are you using? What options are installed? What Enterprise Manager packs are licensed? Is any of this changable? Could you license another option for the database or another pack for Enterprise Manager if that was necessary?
    What does it mean to you to "mask data"? Do you want to store the data on disk and then mask the data in the presentation layer when certain people query it (i.e. store the patient's social security number in the database but only present ***-**- and the last 4 digits to certain sets of employees)? Do you want to hide entire fields from certain people? Do you want to change the data stored in the database when you are refreshing a lower environment with production data? If so, do you need and/or want this process to be either determinisitic or reversable or both?

  • Oracle 11G database for 64 bit windows installation error

    Hi,
    I downloaded the 11G 64bit for windows and unzipped the files into one folder and ran the setup.exe as an administrator. It opened up the java screen and I chose, create and configure a database. Next screen I chose, Desktop Class, when I click next it dies. It does not show me teh next screen. I went to the appdata folder and saw this error but not sure what to do EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005). Please help. Thanks for your time and help.

    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
    Best Regards
    Fred=================================
    A couple of important points.
    First, the listener is a server side only process. It's entire purpose in life is to receive requests for connections to databases and set up those connections. Once the connection is established, the listener is out of the picture. It creates the connection. It doesn't sustain the connection. One listener, with the default name of LISTENER, running from one oracle home, listening on a single port, will serve multiple database instances of multiple versions running from multiple homes. It is an unnecessary complexity to try to have multiple listeners or to name the listener as if it belongs to a particular database. That would be like the telephone company building a separate switchboard for each customer.
    Additional notes on the listener: One listener is capable of listening on multiple ports. But please notice that it is the listener using these ports, not the database instance. You can't bind a specific listener port to a specific db instance. Similarly, one listener is capable of listnening on multiple IP addresses (in the case of a server with multiple NICs) But just like the port, you can't bind a specific ip address to a specific db instance.
    Second, the tnsnames.ora file is a client side issue. It's purpose is for address resolution - the tns equivalent of the 'hosts' file further down the network stack. The only reason it exists on a host machine is because that machine can also run client processes.
    Assume you have the following in your tnsnames.ora:
    larry =
      (DESCRIPTION =
        (ADDRESS_LIST =
          (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost)(PORT = 1521))
        (CONNECT_DATA =
          (SERVICE_NAME = curley)
      )Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
    $> sqlplus scott/tiger@larrytns will look in your tnsnames.ora for an entry called 'larry'. Next, tns sends a request to (PORT = 1521) on (HOST = myhost) using (PROTOCOL = TCP), asking for a connection to (SERVICE_NAME = curley).
    Where is (HOST = myhost) on the network? When the request gets passed from tns to the next layer in the network stack, the name 'myhost' will get resolved to an IP address, either via a local 'hosts' file, via DNS, or possibly other less used mechanisms. You can also hard-code the ip address (HOST = 123.456.789.101) in the tnsnames.ora.
    Next, the request arrives at port 1521 on myhost. Hopefully, there is a listener on myhost configured to listen on port 1521, and that listener knows about SERVICE_NAME = curley. If so, you'll be connected.
    What can go wrong?
    First, there may not be an entry for 'larry' in your tnsnames. In that case you get "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified" No need to go looking for a problem on the host, with the listener, etc. If you can't place a telephone call because you don't know the number (can't find your telephone directory (tnsnames.ora) or can't find the party you are looking for listed in it (no entry for larry)) you don't look for problems at the telephone switchboard.
    Maybe the entry for larry was found, but myhost couldn't be resolved to an IP address (say there was no entry for myhost in the local hosts file). This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
    Maybe there was an entry for myserver in the local hosts file, but it specified a bad IP address. This will result in "ORA-12545: Connect failed because target host or object does not exist"
    Maybe the IP was good, but there is no listener running: "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener"
    Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, but it is listening on a different port. "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error"
    Maybe the IP was good, there is a listener at myhost, it is listening on the specified port, but doesn't know about SERVICE_NAME = curley. "ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor"
    Third: If the client is on the same machine as the db instance, it is possible to connect without referencing tnsnames and without going through the listener.
    Now, when you issue a connect, say like this:
    $> sqlplus scott/tigertns will attempt to establish an IPC connection to the db instance. How does it know the name of the instance? It uses the current value of the enviornment variable ORACLE_SID. So...
    $> export ORACLE_SID=fred
    $> sqlplus scott/tigerIt will attempt to connect to the instance known as "fred". If there is no such instance, it will, of course, fail. Also, if there is no value set for ORACLE_SID, the connect will fail.
    check executing instances to get the SID

  • Install Oracle 11g R2 64-bit on Windows 7 home premium

    Hi Guys
    I'm a little pissed off.I've installed Oracle 11g R2 a few times now..on windows xp without any issues but the first time I've tried to install 11g R2 64-bit on my new laptop and it just won't work.
    The installation goes just fine until step 4 System class and I chose Desktop class and the installation program just hangs.
    I've done the following steps
    1: Installed Java SDK 6 update 31 in the following directory C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_31
    2: I've also disabled User account control settings to never notify.
    3: I've tried unzipping the two zip files separately and together with the same result.(hung installation)
    4: updated java_home and path environment variables with the java sdk directory. (My path does have other values which have a space between directory names..ive tried
    removing all those entries and just keeping the java directory entry but it still gave me the same error)
    5: I always kick off the installation setup.exe file as an administrator.
    I'ld appreciate some help....
    Tks

    The installation goes just fine until step 4 System class and I chose Desktop class and the installation program just hangs.
    I've done the following steps
    1: Installed Java SDK 6 update 31 in the following directory C:\Java\jdk1.6.0_31
    2: I've also disabled User account control settings to never notify.
    3: I've tried unzipping the two zip files separately and together with the same result.(hung installation)
    4: updated java_home and path environment variables with the java sdk directory. (My path does have other values which have a space between directory names..ive tried
    removing all those entries and just keeping the java directory entry but it still gave me the same error)
    5: I always kick off the installation setup.exe file as an administrator.
    I'ld appreciate some help....
    Tks

  • Installing Oracle 11g database problem (loopback adatper problem)

    Hi, I tried to install Oracle 11g and I got a warning mentioning that I need to install Loopback adapter first.
    I followed the Loopback adapter installation instruction from the oracle website, and in the last step I need to add a line to the hosts file. Which is where I got a problem...my laptop doesn't have a domain name, but it's a workgroup name instead.
    So can I put this:
    ip_address host_name
    instead of this:
    ip_address host_name.domain_name host_name
    And if we cannot do that, should I try this 2nd method below?:
    I also read one thread in the forum saying that we don't need to install Loopback adapter, but instead we have to edit the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files and make the value for HOST 127.0.0.1.
    Message was edited by:
    user610037

    If I understand you correctly, I should add a line like this in the host file(a, b, c or d??):
    example: My computer host name is: "David"
    a) "10.10.10.10 David.testing.com"
    or
    b) "10.10.10.10 David.testing.com David"
    or
    c) "10.10.10.10 localhost.testing.com
    or
    d) "10.10.10.10 localhost.testing.com localhost"

  • Which is better to install Oracle 11g database based on ASM or Filesystem

    We will install 2 sets of Oracle 11.2.0.3 on Redhat Linix 5.6 and configure Data Guard for them further -- one will be a primary DB server, the other will be a physical standby DB server. The Oracle DB stoage is based on SAN Array Disk with 6TB size. Now there are two options to manage the DB datafiles:
    1. Install Oracle ASM
    2. Create the tranditional OS filesystem
    Which is better? in the past, our 10g data guard environment is not based on Oracle ASM.
    Someone think if we adopt the oracle ASM, the shortcomings are :
    1. as there is one more instance that will consume more memory and resource.
    2. as the ASM file system cannot be shown out on the OS level directly such as "df" command, the disk utilization monitor job will be more difficult. at least it cannot be supervised at OS level.
    3. as the DB bshoule be done the daily incremental backup (Mon-Sat) to Local Backup Drive. the bakup job must be done by RMAN rather than user-managed script.
    Who can provide some advices? Thanks very much in advance.

    Which is better? in the past, our 10g data guard environment is not based on Oracle ASM. ASM provides a host of new features ito data management, and performance - to the extent that you can rip out the entire existing storage system, replace it with a brand new storage system, without a single second of database downtime.
    Someone think if we adopt the oracle ASM, the shortcomings are :
    1. as there is one more instance that will consume more memory and resource.Not really relevant on 64bit h/w architecture that removes limitations such a 4GB of addressable memory. On the CPU side... heck, my game PC at home has a 8 core 64bit CPU. Single die and dual core CPUs belong to the distant past.
    Arguing that an ASM instance has overheads would be silly. And totally ignores the wide range of real and tangible benefits that ASM provides.
    2. as the ASM file system cannot be shown out on the OS level directly such as "df" command, the disk utilization monitor job will be more difficult. at least it cannot be supervised at OS level.That is a A Very Good Thing (tm). Managing database storage from o/s level is flawed in many ways.
    3. as the DB bshoule be done the daily incremental backup (Mon-Sat) to Local Backup Drive. the bakup job must be done by RMAN rather than user-managed script.
    rman supports ASM fully.
    I have stopped using cooked file systems for Oracle - I prefer ASM first and foremost. The only exceptions are tiny servers with a single root disk that needs to be used for kernel, database s/w, and database datafiles. (currently these are mostly Oracle XE systems in my case, and configured that way as XE does not support ASM and is used as a pure cost decision).

  • Oracle 11G database and Application Server installed on same server

    What are the pros and cons installing Oracle 11G database and Oracle Application Server (Forms and Reports) on the same server?
    Thank you in advance, Sonya

    Some may want their data in a separate network zone for security reasons.
    It also depends if it is the same people that do maintenance on db and appserver.
    It is lower cost with one server, and only 1 Os to set up.

  • Oracle 11g database can we update patch directly from 11.2.0.3.0 to 11.2.0.4.0?

    Hi,
    I have installed Oracle 11g database.
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    CORE 11.2.0.3.0 Production
    TNS for 64-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    I want to update the patch.
    Oracle 11g database can we update patch directly from 11.2.0.3.0 to 11.2.0.4.0?
    Is any impact on the database?
    Kindly suggest,
    Regards,
    Sachin

    11.2.0.4 is nothing but a patchset of 11.2.0.3, in-place upgrade is allowed :
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e23633/preup.htm#UPGRD12370
    "You cannot install the new software into the same location for Oracle home as your current release, unless you are installing an Oracle Database 11g patchset release. For a patchset release, you can use the same Oracle Database 11g Oracle home."
    And since it's a patchset, a direct upgrade is ok.
    Lastly, yes, every upgrade has an impact (e.g. perf.), it has to be tested.

  • Oracle 9i Database Release 2 Installation, login

    I have just installed Oracle 9i Database Release 2 Personal Edition (Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0) on my home computer, which is running Windows XP Professional. My intent is to use the SQL Plus program to create basic databases for my college class. I now need to know how to create/use the login to begin using SQL Plus, especially with the host string.
    Keep in mind:
    -This is my first time using Oracle
    -I don't want anything fancy, just the basics
    -I have looked at the previous topics and they all refer to a Unix install or relate to topics I don't understand.
    -I am looking for a response that my Grandma could almost understand. I want the step-by-step procedures, what things to click on, and so on. If it's a thirty-page post, I don't mind as long as I can start getting some homework done.

    Since you are trying to login on the same machine, try this:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba
    Use the Net Configuration Assistant to add the service name to your tnsnames.ora ...

  • Issue in Connecting to Oracle 11g Database

    Hi,
    I have installed Oracle 11g database using loopback adapter. (used ip 10.10.10.10). In the drivers file did the following entry
    ipaddress computername.domainname.com computername
    How can I connect to this database from other computer in the network ex:using sqldeveloper? (When I try it says "Network adapter couldnt establish the connection")
    Thanks,
    Ramesh

    from other computer in the network Oracle version on that computer ?
    Did you configure a connection string on that computer ? If so, please post your tnsnames.ora. If not, what did you do exactly ?
    Also, from the server post the result of "lsnrctl stat".

    Hello Kalyan,
    A couple questions:
    1. Once you installed the 11G database, you did start the database services, yes?
    2. Do you have a properly configured TNSNAMES.ORA file that points to your database?
    3. You created a database that you are using and can access the database via SQLPlus?
    Don.
