Installing Oracle 8i on WIndows 2000

I have installed Oracle 8i on WIndows 2000, and I want it
configured to work locally on one machine. I get it installed
with no problem with the seeded database. When I try to log
into SQL*Plus as anything, i.e. SYSTEM/MANAGER or SCOTT/TIGER or
SYS/CHANGE_ON_INSTALL, it tries to connect through my modem. Is
there a way to configure the tnsnames.ora so it doesn't try to
go through a network?
Sincerely
rk

You probably have to navigate to inside the INSTALL folder. Sometimes the SETUP.EXEs on the root of the CD won't launch. Should be something like INSTALL\WIN32\setup.exe

  • Error while Installing Oracle 8i on windows 2000 box

    When trying to install the Oracle 8i software, I get the following error from the event log:
    The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( PctSpk ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event: PctSpk error: 1063, StartServiceCtrlDispatcher failed..
    If anyone have suggestions to solving my problems, please advise.
    Note: I've started all possible services that I could think of.

    Definitely 8i won't work with windows vista. 10gR2 (10.2.0.1.0) was not certified to run against vista, Oracle had to release an specific 10.2.0.3.0 for Windows Vista. Previous releases are Not supported at all and there are no plans to support them.
    If you are planning to use 8i on your Vista OS, it won't be possible, but you can create a Virtual Machine with a supported guest OS for 8i, Windows 2000 is certified for 8i, Windows XP is not supported for 8i, but I have been working with it for years without any issue (this is not a suggestion for production environments).

    i have oracle 9i release 2 installed on my windows server 2000 and an application is already running, now i want to install oracle 10g on same machine...
    but when i try to launch oracle universal installer, it fails to launch it....whay is this so??? do i need to adjust some parameters to install it????
    can anyone provide a checklist to check??i have an antivirus installed on machine...
    any suggestion will be appreciable
    thanks and regards
    VD

    got my answer, you can follow this step.
    on windows 2000 server while launching oracle universal installer, due to jre bug (noted in metalink 266617.1 doc and 393070.1) installer CMD prompt launch and disapper in a while... so run following command on command prompt
    to resolve the issue.. change directory path according to your directory structure.
    change directory to your oracle installation setup.exe directory and execute following command
    C:\>\backup\SoftwareBackup\Database10g\database\install\oui.exe -J-Dsun.java2d.noddraw=truethanks and regards

    I am using an Oracle 8i database for the installation on the same machine. Can anyone help please?
    Thanks,
    -Ashok Manian

    Thanks for the reply Rohini.
    The SYS password is change_on_install and SYSTEM password is manager. It still causes the same problem. The database I am using is an Oracle 8i database which is automatically created while installing Oracle 9iAS.
    I also tried to install Oracle Portal on an Oracle 9i Database on the same machine and this comes out with a different error. It tells me the SHARED_POOL_SIZE is less than 31457280 whereas as I checked through SQL*Plus its actually much more than that!
    Can you please help?
    Thanks,

  • Install Oracle 10g on Windows 2000 server

    hello
    I have installed Oracle 10.1.0.2 on my server ( Windows 2000 server). The procedure of installation goes suitably but during the creation of the base it posts me:
    instance Created
    Dim-00019: Error of creation of service
    O/S-error OS1387) Impossible to add or remove a member of the local group because this member does not exist
    then, I look that the service OracleDBConsole of Enterprise Manager is not created
    knowing only SqlPlus goes well.
    after the installation, I want to add the console Enterprise Manager while using EMCA then it display this error:
    Failure of the configuration Enterprise Manager because: Job_queue_processes must be equal to or higher than 1
    help Me PLEASE

    First problem: Check the user , which does the installation,
    it must be a Local Administrator in order to install Oracle products on a
    Windows NT/2000 Server (machine not part of a domain) or it must be a Domain Administrator to install Oracle products on a Domain Controller (PDC or BDC) (machine part of a domain).
    Another known issue for this problem is a non-english Windows version,in this case the software should reloaded from OTN, which has a fix.
    Second problem: You cannot run emca, BEFORE you have a running database, DBConsole depends on it.

    How do I install Oracle 10g on Windows 2000 cluster (MSCS installed)?
    I have a 2-nodes Microsoft windows 2003 server cluster and I want to install Oracle 10g,
    Do I folloow this order:
    1. Install the software on both without the database
    2. Create the database from the first node
    in this case, The second node can see the database as it is available?,
    and what about the IP adresses?
    If you can point me to some documentation, or help in any way, I would appreciate it.

  • Problem in installing Forms 6 on Windows 2000

    I have problem in installing forms 6 on windows 2000.
    Please advise me.
    null

    Hello,
    I've been using Dev 2000 ver 6i for several months sucessfully on Win 2K RC2. The compiled .fmx's work fine with the ver 6.0 runtime environment under NT 4.0.
    The only problem is that the Forms Server won't work till the 1st patch set comes out
    (only Oracle knows when!) , so you can't test or deploy the forms as web apps on Win 2K yet. OAS 4.0 appears to work ok on Win 2K.
    I have been using the Beta version of Dev 6i and will upgrade to the release version eventually, probably when the patch comes out.

  • I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Windows Server 2008

    Hi
    I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Windows Server 2008.
    While installing third CD it shows the following error message
    "jrew.exe has stopped working"
    Please guide me what to do next as early as possible.
    Thanks

    Why?
    The general policy of Oracle is very simple:
    it certifies against the current version of the OS.
    It never re-certifies against new releases of the OS.
    Windows 2008 didn't exist when Oracle 9i was released.

  • Install Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have a problem Installing Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium, I cant install it because it throws me an error message saying that is incompatible with my version of Windows. It is possible to install it with some patch or something??

    user599646

    The only patch I know of is called Windows XP.
    In case you have not done any internet searches on this, even Oracle Database 10g was not compatible with Vista until Oracle applied some heavy patches and re-released it.
    And since Oracle9i is officially deprecated (nearest thing to obsolete as to make no difference) I see no reason for Oracle to backport the patches.
