Oracle 11g R2 on Windows

Hi All
I want to install 11g R2(11.2.0.1) version of the database on my laptop which is on windows Vista. I could not able to find the link for windows version on otn.oracle.com. Can anyone know why oracle has no reference to particular version on windows O/S.
Thanks and Regards.

Aman; i dont care abour your information on the internet, i just say what i see, feel, and know in my company. Oracle has more administration-time, and need more employees, where SQL server just runs good. But as i said, one of our oracle databases has more transaction than NASDAQ, and for this task we need Oracle.Well since you didn't bother to take the reply in a positive manner so I hve no other choice but to say that neither do I care whats going on in your shop ! More transactions than NASDAQ?Hmm interesting and how many transactions do you think NASDAQ is having which you are surpassing? And its just amazing to hear that just a handful of your dbas are managing that as well! Splendid!
Did you get your feelings hurt?Huh? Please learn to post a more professional reply next time. We were just discussing a professional thing which you mentioned that you don't care about. I can't recall where did I bring "feelings" into!
I don't like to post such replies at all so if this would be the course of flow for the thread, I would rather refrain myself from posting further replies since its not a good thing to divert what's the thread originally is all about and this thread was never about comparisons of sql server and oracle niether did I say anything in that context. All what I said to Alan( the OP) that there can be many restrictions on buying "any" software for a company so in those limitations one has to decide and I hope that Oracle brings out windows version of oracle sooner so that OP can present it to his management/customer.

Connect Oracle 11g (64-bit windows server) to Microsoft SQL Server 2000

Hi all,
I am trying to connect:
Oracle 11g (64-bit windows server) to Microsoft SQL Server 2000 (32-bit) on a different machine.
1) I have create an ODBC connection (called:GALAXY) which connects.
2) created a init.ora called it initgalaxy.ora in $oracle_home\hs\admin
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = GALAXY
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = on
3) modified the listener.ora file as below
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: E:\Ora11g\product\11.1.0\db_1\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
LISTENER =

(SID_DESC =
(PROGRAM = EXTPROC)
(SID_NAME = PLSExtProc)
(ORACLE_HOME = E:\Ora11g\product\11.1.0\db_1)
4) modified the tnsnames.ora file is as follows
GALAXY =

5) restarted the listener
6) created a public database connect
create PUBLIC DATABASE LINK "GALAXY" CONNECT TO "USER" IDENTIFIED by "PWD" USING 'galaxy';

11.2 is beta at the moment. There is no official release date so far.
As DG4ODBC is independant from the Oracle database (or the target database) you can use a 3 machine model:
On the first machine you have your Oracle database, on a second machine running 32bit Windows you can install DG4ODBC and on the 3rd machine you can run your foreign database.
If the SQL Server 2k is installed on a 32bit Windows machine, then you can also install DG4ODBC on this machine.
In general the connection from an Oracle database to the DG4ODBC machine is done using SDQL*Net. The listener responsible for DG4ODBC will then load the DG4ODBC executable which will connect to the SQL Server using SQL Server ODBC driver.

Unable to install Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 8

Hi All,
I know this is a familiar post with quite a few users facing problems while trying to install Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 8 platform. Subsequently, there have been resolutions provided - Hyperion Error of the Day: Oracle Database 11g Installer Disappears After Prerequisite Checks.
I am facing a similar problem - the installation window disappears after I select the "Select Class Option" as desktop. I tried following the steps which have been advised, but to no success. I would like to make a point here - The Operating System that I use is - Windows 8 Single Language, which is different from Windows 8 Enterprise Edition. Plus, the java I use is:
java version "1.7.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_45-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode, sharing)
Kindly Help.
With regards
Sriram

Hi,
The solution provided in this link worked. Hyperion Error of the Day: Oracle Database 11g Installer Disappears After Prerequisite Checks
Even though I installed java in c:\java, I got the same error, but calling setup.exe from command prompt and setting the jreLoc path has worked.
Eg: on command prompt, I gave below command and it worked,
D:\downloads\database>setup -jreLoc "C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_51"
D:\downloads\database -> is path setup.exe location
Thanks,

Best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on Windows Server 2008 r2

Dear all,
May I know what is the best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on windows server 2008 r2. Should I create a special account for windows for the oracle database installation? What permission should I grant to the folders where Oracle installed and the database related files located (datafiles, controlfiles, etc.)
Just grant Full for Administrators and System and remove permissions for all others accounts?
Also how should I configure windows firewall to allow client connect to the database.
Thanks for your help.

Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 7 - OUI Error 10150

Hi,
I installed oracle 11g r2 on windows 7.
Then I wanted to add Label security and Database vault to existing installation.
OUI from installed location raised error 10150.
Other threads indicated running OUI from installation media. But only have Setup.exe in installation media.
I select Upgrade existing database from there but it does not allow me to add new components in existing Oracle home. It forces me to install into new Oracle home.
Any pointers?

Oracle 11g ODBC for Windows NT and Windows 95

Hi
Please does anyone knows where can I find this ODBC ? Oracle 11g ODBC for Windows NT and Windows 95
I have test some ODBC from the Oracle page but doesnt work
Thank you
J.A.

I'm thinking no.
However I did find this which may help :
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/windows/odbcfaq-128251.pdf
I did the search for 16 bit in it and found some interesting information.
The other piece of information I can share is the Oracle 11 client has issues connecting to Oracle 9.
An Oracle 10 clients might have a better chance, but the catch is finding it.
The last client I remember working on these OS's was Oracle 8. But I doubt that will connect to Oracle 11.

Migrate Oracle 11g database from Windows To Linux using RMAN hot / cold backup ?

Hi Friends,
Is it possible to Migrate Oracle 11g database from Windows To Linux using RMAN hot / cold backup ? ( as i would like to perform Point In Time recovery)
(or) The only way is to use RMAN convert as mentioned here - Transporting Data Across Platforms
(or) Is there any other method (except exp/imp and data pump)
Regards,
DB

HI
his post describes the procedure required to migrate a database from Windows to Linux using the RMAN Convert Database command.
Both Windows and Linux platforms have the same endian format, which makes possible to transfer the whole database, making the migration process very straightforward and simple.
To migrate between platforms that have a different endian format, Cross Platform Transportable Tablespaces (XTTS) needs to be used instead.
List of Steps Needed to Complete the Migration
The migration process is simple, but as it has several steps it is convenient to be familiar with them before running it.
1. Check platform compatibility between source and target OS
2. Start the database in read only mode
3. Check database readiness for transport from Windows to Linux using DBMS_TDB.CHECK_DB
4. Check if there are any external objects
5. Execute the Rman Convert database command
6. Copy converted datafiles, generated Transport Script and Parameter File to Linux
7. Edit the init.ora for the new database
8. Edit the Transport Script and Parameter File changing the windows paths to Linux Paths
9. Execute the Transport Script
10.Change the Database ID
11.Check database integrity
Thank you

Oracle 11g RAC on Windows 2008 R2 VMware EXS 3.5 virtual machines

Hi,
We are planning to Install Oracle 11g R2 RAC on two VMware EXS 3.5 Windows 2008 R2 servers.
Having trouble while assigning the storage to the servers, the Raw Device Mapping feature in the VMware is greyed out and we cannot assign the disks to the Virtual servers, the disks are allocated to the Vmware Host machine from the SAN (HP EVA).
Please guide me the best approach for the RAC configuration on VMware EXS 3.5 Win 2008 R2 Guest servers.
any help will be highly appreceiated.
Thanks.

Hi,
Is this implementation to production environment?
Be aware:
Is Oracle RAC on VMware supported? No, we do not support Oracle Software including Oracle RAC on VMWare.
Aside from the support restrictions for the database on VMWare outlined in Metalink Note 249212.1, there are technical restrictions that prevent the certification of Oracle RAC in a VMWare environment.

Install and uninstall of Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 2008 Server

Hi,
I installed Oracle 11g R2 and set up a database on Windows 2008 Server following the steps in the Installation Guide and it was successful. After uninstalling the product and doing a re-install, the step to configure the Net Configuration Assistant fails with the following msg.
Failed to allocate port(s) in the specified range(s) for the following process(es): JMS
[5540-5559], RMI [5520-5539], Database Control [5500-5519], EM Agent [3938] | [1830-1849]
Also, when I ran "netca.bat" and tried to reconfigure the Listener, it indicated the default port 1521 is being used. I ran "netstat -an" and do not see the port listed.
Questions:
What is the best way to check if something was leftover from my previous install of Oracle that is using the default ports?
What do I need to do to ensure a re-install is successful?
Uninstalling Oracle -
1.     Log in as the Administrator.
2.     Stop all Oracle Services.
3.     From a cmd window, run C:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\deinstall\deinstall.bat.
4.     Delete the C:\app\oracle directory.
5.     Remove the following registry entries as per http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/relnotes.112/e16777/toc.htm:

Johan, after I uninstalled Oracle, I checked to ensure there were no remaining Oracle services remaining.
Srini, below are the steps I followed to uninstall Oracle. In step 3, I just ran deinstall.bat without any parameters and provided required information as prompted. Note, I uninstalled using the Administrator user and not the "oracle" account that I used to install Oracle.

Oracle 11g on CITRIX ( windows 2008 R2 ) OS batch file call fails

Hello Sir/Madam,
I've been using HOST built-in to invoke a command window to call another application from my oracle application form. The application is GFS Forms 6i on Oracle 11g db w/ XP OS. This logic works.
--XP OS logic:
declare
cmd varchar2(200);
url varchar2(200) := 'C:\PROGRA~1\ADVANT~1\GFS\start_grids_with_coords_pd.bat';
location1 varchar2(100);
location2 varchar2(100);
     begin
          go_block('GAS_SERVICES');
     location1 := substr(:gas_services.location_coord, 1, 5);
     location2 := substr(:gas_services.location_coord, 6, 5);
          tool_env.getvar('comspec', cmd);
     host('cmd /c start '||url ||' '||location1||' '||location2);
     end;
Now, we are upgrading to W7 OS also, we would like use this function on CITRIX ( Windows server 2008 R2 ) server. For some reason, we are encountering errors when tilda /( squiggly ) line is used or a double quote

I'll appreciate your help!

Hello,
Have you tried using long filename instead of short filename ? When using long filename, you need to enclose it with double quotes.
Exemple :
url varchar2(200) := 'C:\PROGRA~1\ADVANT~1\GFS\start_grids_with_coords_pd.bat';
become
url varchar2(200) := 'C:\PROGRAM FILES\ADVANT_WHATEVER HERE\GFS\start_grids_with_coords_pd.bat';
and
host('cmd /c start '||url ||' '||location1||' '||location2);
become
host('cmd /c start '|| chr(34) || url || chr(34) || ' '||location1||' '||location2);
This work fines with Forms 6i on Windows 2003 and Citrix, but didn't try on Windows 2008.

Upgrade ASM Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 to ASM Oracle 11G R2 on Windows 2008 SP2

Please advice on procedure or where I can find information on upgrading ASM from Oracle 10G to Oracle 11G R2 (Winwdows 2008 SP2 64bit environment) for mutiple Oracle instances (not a RAC environrment).
The current scenario is as follow:
- Two oracle homes; one for ASM instance and another for the Oracle Databases (in current case only two oracle instances possiblly more at a later time). Both (ASM and Oracle databases) have the same version of Oracle 10.2.4.0.
The Oracle database home can't be upgraded due to application restricition (Vendor Application not tested on Oracle 11G) but will like to upgrade the ASM instance to Oracle 11G (Oraclle 11G R2).
Questions:
- Is is a feasable solution? Can I upgrade ASM instance to Oracle 11G R2 to take advantage of new features? Will the ASM upgrade scenario is compatible with the Oracle Database Instance running Oracle 10G? Any possible issues that I should be aware or concerns?
Is it possible to have ASM running in Oracle 11G R2 and service the need of Oracle database instance running in 10G?
Please advice or where I can obtained information on the matter. Also possibly if someone has done it on Windows 2008 SP2 (not Windows 2008R2).
Thanks in advance

Thanks so I can upgrade the ASM Home instance and leave the Oracle Databases home on Oracle 10.2.0.4.
I agree with you not just 100%, actually 120%. Fortunately, the vendor is finally understanding by pressure provided by DBAs and Application Teams that they are very behind the curve. It is working and by summer we should have an oracle 11G compatible product.
The same thought went when I was told of their compatability database level.

Albert

Oracle 11g r2 on Windows 7

Hi all,
I was trying to install oracle 11g on windows 7 but during the creation of database the installer hang and issue error of log view.

Hi,
First, you have to make sure that event viewer service is running ,all you have to do is to go to
my computer right click properties then in the computer managment you will find the event viewer.
Second, Expand the event viewer and go to system and right click and then clear log ,
you can do the same step for application.
then get back again and try to create the database :)

The desupport notice is available on Metalink (Note 376384.1).
The Warehouse Builder installation as part of the 11.1.0.7 installation should be certified, but I cannot find specifics.
