Which version of oracle have you installed?According to the dcoumentation,
Do not install Oracle Database on Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 using the media for Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Microsoft Windows. Do not use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista or the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media to install on operating systems other than Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008.
Oracle Database is supported on Windows Vista with the 10.2.0.3 release. If you used the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista media, then Oracle recommends that you install the 10.2.0.4 patch set. You do not need to use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media.
For new installations on Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media. This new software is available in the updated media pack

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

You didn't specify which Oracle10 Edition.
In the case of SE/SE one/EE, with a paid license Supported has a mean impact on production environments with paid licenses, since you wouldn't run on an unsupported platform facing the risk of being left without technical support from Oracle in case of an emerging issue.
For the XE Edition, this is not a certified combination, since the only certified editions are the Business, Enterprise, and the Ultimate editions, but you can try it, you don't have nothing to loose, supported, certified vs. unsupported in this case makes no difference since this XE is not supported either way (no patchsets, no bug fixes, no technical support from metalink), just an AS IS free software.
On the license agreement terms displayed when you download the XE software it states:
"No Technical Support
Our technical support organization will not provide technical support, phone support, or updates to you for the programs licensed under this agreement."
and
"THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE."
In case someone would be able to win a trial against oracle due to damage from the use of this software, the amount paid at maximum is 1,000.00 USD, not enough to even pay the lawyer's lunches.
For the XE users the primary source of 'kind of support' is the oracle forums, either the installation forum, the general database or the specialized XE forum.
Of course if this is for your own personal use for learning and testing and there are no third parties you could damage by doing this and if you don't have a paid license for this installation you may try it, but don't expect the Enterprise Manager to behave as defined by the manual, most of it won't work since the Home Edition doesn't have the privileges required for EM to work.
If this is your personal computer and when you bought it the computer provider installed from factory Home Edition, and if you want something to work there, you can try to install a Virtual Machine and install Oracle 10g on a supported guest OS.

Unable to install oracle 8 i on windows vista

Hi all,
I cannot installed my oracle 8i on my new laptop purchase with windows vista . I do everything but at last the programms are all download on my machine. Perhaps a problem of compatibility perhaps . I am in trouble . Because i need it to updates my datasbefore migrating in the server. What can i do to solve this problem of compatibility with installation. Please help me to fix this problem.
Thanks, Welcome, user575726

There is a specific version of Oracle 10g for Windows Vista. I even hear that Oracle 10g XE will work too; however, I have only tried oracle 10g for vista.
Both Oracle 8i and 9i are unsupported on vista.
Install Windows XP Pro on your laptop instead of Windows Vista.
Or, if you need to install 8i or 9i on Vista, may I suggest installing a virtual machine running Windows 2000 or Windows XP on top of Vista. Then in this vm, install Oracle 8i or 9i.
There is microsoft virtual pc 2007, vmware worktation 6.0, and parallels. I'm not sure if qemu or bochs will work. Note, you must have vista business premium or ultimate to be able to run a virtual machine in it according to the vista end user license.

Anybody tried install oracle 10g into Microsoft Windows Server 2003

Dear sir/madam
I would like to know is anybody tried install oracle 10g 10.2.0.1.0 into Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003?
Will it works smoothly? any problems about it? any networks problems?
I am prepare to buy Genuine Microsoft Windows Small Business Server 2003, so I would like to know about this matter.
many thanks
Francis

While I have not installed Oracle on Windows 2003 Small Business Server, I would suggest that you not install on that particular version of Windows. While I have not worked with SBS, I believe that this is an all-in-one solution that handles Exchange email services, file services, print services, domain control (all roles), DNS, WINS, HTTP, and probably a couple other things also.
While it sounds like a great idea to add Oracle to this server, I suspect that you will encounter some of the same issues that cause problems when Oracle is installed on a Windows domain controller. On such a server, there is no concept of a local group (the ORA_DBA group that the installer tries to create). Available memory, availalble free CPU, and disk contention may also be a problem due to contention with other services running on the server.
You might take a look at the following Metalink articles:
Note:46001.1
Note:77665.1
Note:160538.1
I would suggest that you take a look at the 64 bit Standard Edition of Windows 2003 if it is compatible with your hardware, or if you are familiar with Linux, do as Aman suggested. If possible, run only Oracle on the server.
Incidentally, Windows 2003 SBS is not listed on Oracle's certify web page, even though Windows 2008 is listed.

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,

Installation of Oracle 10g XE in Windows Vista home premium

Hi,
I tried to install oracle 10g XE(express edition) in my laptop which has Windows Vista home premium 32 bit.But when i start database it is showing me error
C:\oracleexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN>net start OracleXETNSListener
System error 5 has occured
Access is denied
C:\oracleexe\app\oracle\product\10.2.0\server\BIN>net start OracleServiceXE
System error 5 has occured
Access is denied
CAn anyone please help me out with this issue.

I didn't realize Vista Home Premium wasn't supported, so I went ahead and installed Oracle 10g R2 standard edition and then personal edition on 64-bit Vista Home Premium. The only problem I've had is that the DB Console doesn't work, which is why I came to this forum and thread. All I get is a blank page with a few chicken scratches, but everything else has been working so far. I've had to revert to command line SQL Plus, and I just imported a couple million rows from an export done on a Solaris server, so go figure. Obviously I'm not using it for a production database, but for my purposes so far it's done OK.

Installation of Oracle 10g Database on Windows Vista Home Basic

Hi All,
I'm confused about the possibility of installing Oracle 10g Database Server in Windows Home Basic Operating System with Service Pack 1. Please help me out with a confirmation.
Thanks in advance
Prasanth

Hi Prasanth
Yes that should be possible but is it a production database or just a test database.
you can always control that in metalink if it is supported, I don't believe it is.
Read that documentation to perform the installation.

Oracle 10g XE and Windows Vista

I bought a laptop with an excitement; and installed oracle 10g XE, now I can't run the oracle on this Windows Vista? Any guidance and suggestion would be much appreciated.
I couldn't dare to install linux fedora on this laptop which has Windows Vista for a dual boot sytem because I read all negative things in google about the dual bootying system of fedora and windows vista. Any suggestion and guidance would be one again would be very much appreciated.

I have a problem with Oracle XE installed on my laptop 1GB RAM with Windows Vista :).
It installed ok, but when I run my program (Visual Foxpro 9) it stays 30 seconds up to a minute to make a few selections.
The same program on my laptop works fine with other databases installed on windows xp or windows 2003 server.
Also, from other computers I can connect to Oracle XE on Windows Vista and make those selections fine.
I uninstalled Oracle XE from my laptop.
I downloaded Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows Vista and I installed it.
It's the same problem.
On my laptop, my program (VFP9 - connects through ODBC) or PLSQL Developer freeze when I do a select from a table with 72053 rows (the result has 2000 rows).
If I connect from another computer, where I installed Oracle Instant Client from Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.3) for Vista, the select runs instantaneously :)
My head hurts very much at this time.
We bought the laptop with Vista OEM for presentations :) - it's unusable at this point :)

1.) Remove the services as C:\> oradim -delete -sid <db_name>
2.) remove the directory structure
3.) In case if some folder cnaoot deleted then restart the machine and delete them or rename them and delete later on.
Hope this help you :)

Perl error when installing Oracle 10g in a Window XP

After I install Oracle Enterprise Manager 10g Grid Control in a Window XP SP2 environment, and appears the next message: "perl.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience."
And in some logs appears Errors, like in OC4J~OC4J_EM~default_island~1:
08/04/30 11:46:03      at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:137)
08/04/30 11:46:03      at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:174)
08/04/30 11:46:03      at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:239)
between other errors in other logs.
I need to configure the snmp agent and subagent, but it doesnt work correctly :(
If someone can help me with this problems please I will so thank.

Hi,
As you are new I would like to explain you more. First please confirm whether you have Oracle support. Metalink can be accessed only when you have oracle support.
