10g / 11g Installations

Hi,
I have a requirement to install Oracle 10g with where currently 11g patchset 1 (11.1.0.7.0) is running.
My question is - can I use same oracle 11g base to install new 10g. And will there be any impact to the existing inventory files of 11g if 10g is installed?
I can use a different base for 10g but for my knowledge I am putting this question to forum.
Thanks for your time
Kiran

Nicolas - Sorry, I couldn't understand. You mean to say I can use 11g base for 10g but existing inventory files for 11g will be impacted.
Crrect me if my assumption is wrong. Can you please also explain what kind of impact the 11g inventory will have if 10g is installed on top of that, if any.
Thank youThe same ORACLE_BASE, but not the same ORACLE_HOME.

Few questions about OWB migration 10g---- 11g and UIODs

I am curretly migrating OWB repository from 10g to 11g.
Both repositories are on the same database.
We just have one single Project in our Repository. It is actually(preinstalled) MY_PROJECT renamed into something else. So it has the UOID of the "default" MY_PROJECT but of course, physical and business names are different.
Because we renamed MY_PROJECT, complications occured when we first tried to do the repository upgrade the recommended way, with repository assistant. During the upgrade processes , the error came that the objects with same UOIDs but different names exist.
Obviously, MY_PROJECT from the 10g repository collided with the new, preinstalled, MY_PROJECT in the (almost) empty 11g repository/workspace.
Also, MY_PROJECT in 11g workspace has exactly the same UOID as the one created in 10g repository.
I was told by Oracle support that this was a bug-but they do not see it as high priority, so we had to do workaround --the migration of the repository on 11g.
Now my first Question: Was it completely insane to use MY_PROJECT for your actual ongoing Project? We never had any other problem with this constallation.I also noticed in forums that people indeed use MY_PROJECT for their work.
The second question: Has anybody , ever, seen the same problem, when trying to upgrade to 11g ?
The migration procedure is as follows:
-install 11g Workspace with Repository Assistant
-Export locations and data from 10g repository
-Import locations and data in 11g repository- thé update option -matching on UOID..so we do not get problem with MY_PROJECT
-register locations in11g repository
-deploy all mappings and workflows
Now, this all works fine..and our new 11g repository runs without problem..
I am still puzzled by few things :
New 11g repository is almost empty apart from MY_PROJECT and DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION. Now, MY_PROJECT in 11g has the same UOID as in oracle 10. But DAFAULT_CONFIGURATION in 11g has different UOID from DAFAULT_CONFIGURATION in 10g. It is always the same UIOD for every new 11g installation (I've upgraded repository on many databases).
Now 3rd question: Is there any particular reason why DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION has different UOID in 11g and MY_PROJECT hast the same UOID ? Is there any logic behind it -that I fail to grasp ?
Another thing. I said that I am importing complete Project in the new repository with update option with matching on UIOD. I should get a problem with DAFAULT_CONFIGURATION, I thought, since it is in the full export of the Project and DEFAULT_CONFIGURATION has different UOID than in 11g repository.
But I did not get the problem at all.Default Configuration was simply skipped during the import - visible from the import log.
Therefore 4th question : Why didnät OWB try to import DEAFULT_CONFIG? Is it "internal" object and as such cant't be changed ?
The reason I am so obsessed with UOIDs is that we have automated release procedure (between development, test and production repositores) which is based on comparing UOIDs.
Therefore a s slight trace of concearn on my side, because the DEAFULT CONFIG now has different UOIDs than before. But on the other side, we just propagate mappings and workflows between repositories - I do not see why the default config should matter here .
Thank very much in advance for any answers/suggestions/ideas and comments!

ChangePerm.sh file does not exist in Oracle 11g installation

Hi All,
I have done successful Oracle 11g installation. After installation I noticed that Oracle 11g/installation does not have changePerm.sh file. Did anyone of you seen that?
Without executing changeperm.sh file, the binary files have 751 permission level. ChangePerm.sh script make change in file permission to 755.
Oracle support is not answering me why there was no changePerm.sh file under Oracle_home/install directory.
Thoughts/suggestions..
Thank you
Suresh

I'm not finding this to be the case reliably. I have both a 10G and an 11G install on one particular machine and the 11G installer initially creates the directories with a 755 permission, then right before the prompt to run root.sh, and at the same time it locks down any 10G home it finds (someone please explain that!) it locks down the 11G home too.
In true Murphy tradition, this hasn't happened on any of my testing machines, just my production.
Whatever silly contrived mechanism Oracle wrote to re-lock 10G when installing 11G is also locking down my 11G.

Oracle 9i, 10g, 11g on same machine...11g not working....

Hello All,
I have a dilemma.
I have a server that originally had 9i client installed.
We installed 10g and ODP .Net to gain use of some new funcionality used in .Net and batch processing.
Halfway through testing we realized that 10g's version of ODP.Net has a memory leak issue.
11g was found to correct this issue so we installed it on the server as well and it solved the problem.
Life was good.
9i, 10g, 11g, and ODP.net were all working well.
However, this was a test server. We now needed to go through the same installs for the production server.
On the night of the software install someone made a mistake and installed 10g on the test server again for the second time, after 11g was already installed.
So at this point the test server has:
9i
10g
11g
10g
And now many of the applications on the server are not working correctly and no amount of config changes seemed to fix it.
So we decided to uninstall 11g and then 10g and start over.
At this point we have 9i and 10g installed and the applications are working correctly.
We have tried to reinstall 11g and configure multiple times and 11g will simply not work.
I am stumped at this point. The application that actually does use 11g and ODP.Net simply stops executing at the point it attempts to open a connection with NO ERRORS.
An Exception does occur but there are no contents or error messages in the exception. I have never had this happen before. How do you fix an error you dont have?
So at this point I am just reaching out to see if anyone might have a suggestion. The next step might be to perform a system restore to the point where life was good (before 10g was installed a 2nd time after 11g).
Anyone?

Thanks gdarling.
I was hoping to just start the thread and go from there as sometimes information overload makes people pass on reading the whole post. I am glad you still read it:)
To start off with here are the entries (unedited in my PATH variable):
E:\oracle11\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin;E:\oracle102\product\10.2.0\client_1\bin;E:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1;E:\Orant9i\bin;
I recently moved the 9i path back to the front in order to get the other applications on the server working again as some were erroring out with this when 11.2 was first:
*"OCIEnvCreate failed with return code -1 but error message text was not available"*
I searched for a long time as to the cause of this error but did not turn up much. Most of the posts just mention that the client was installed incorrectly.
Policy files:
I compared the assembly of the "working" server to the "bad" server and they appear identical as far as I can see.
Directories
-9i has one directory
-As you can probably see from the path, it still looks like there are 2 installations of 10g on the server. As well as remnants of three directories that resemble 10g install directories.
-11g has one directory
Couple observed behaviors:
1.
running sqlplus from the 9i and 10g directories works.
running sqlplus from the 11g directory results in the following error:
E:\oracle11\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin>sqlplus.exe
Error 6 initializing SQL*Plus
SP2-0667: Message file sp1<lang>.msb not found
SP2-0750: You may need to set ORACLE_HOME to your Oracle software directory
2.
Running tnsping works from the 9i and 10g directories
Running tnsping from 11g results in this:
TNS Ping Utility for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on 13-MAY-2
010 09:32:32
Copyright (c) 1997, 2010, Oracle. All rights reserved.
Message 3511 not found; No message file for product=NETWORK, facility=TNSTNS-035
05: Message 3505 not found; No message file for product=NETWORK, facility=TNS
*(NOTE: THIS ERROR ALSO OCCURS ON THE "GOOD" SERVER)*
Registry:
There is a difference in the registry.
The "good" server has this entry in the ORACLE area:
KEY_OraClient10g_home1
KEY_OraClient11g_home1
where as the "bad" just has
KEY_OraClient10g_home1
Both servers have ODP.Net folder containing:
2.112.1.0
There are also other entires in this registry area but they are the same.
It wasn't our original intention to have all three clients on the same machine. Halfway through our system testing of a new process we realized the 10g has a memory leak which was corrected in 11g.
So we just installed 11g. These are supposed to be able to coexist right?
It sounds like we could have just installed 11g...
I am going to look into your suggestions.
As far as sysinternals I am a novice. And I am assuming it would need to be loaded on the server...is that correct? Or should I be using it on my local machine with the application in question running?
Getting more software (sysinternals) installed on the server might be a hurdle...
Thanks again

Problems in Installing Oracle 10g,11g on same server

All,
I install oracle 10.2.0 on RHEL 4.7 and running successfully,
How i can Install more database 10.2.0 at same server, and what i have to changed in .bash_profile
what change i have to do for installing Oracle 11g on same server.
Thanks

I am not being strict in my answer as it would might confuse.
Providing you did not use Oracle Express Edition ...
dbca should be able to create and sort out another database 10g for you.
Be careful not to run out of resources {eg use too much main memory}
You can switch between oracle databases in the same oracle home (which is what you will have) by 'export ORACLE_SID=SID2' where SID ... providing your bash_profile sets up the environment required for your first oracle database.
When putting new oracle home installations {eg an 11g installation} on a machine where there is an existing oracle home my rough rule of thumb is to unset variable that relate to existing oracle homes before dpoing install (possible exception of ORACLE_BASE).
eg:
oracle$ env
ORACLE_SID=SID2
ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/prouct/10.2.0
ORA_NLS10=...
oracle$ unset ORACLE_SID
oracle$ unset ORACLE_HOME
oracle$ /stage/whatever/runInstallerI think the argument is begining to go against seting ORACLE_HOME and other home specific stuff etc in the .bash_profile.

3. keyed in the following at the command prompt
DISPLAY=machine_name:0.0; export DISPLAY
4. executed the following from the command prompt
./runInstaller
Note: when executing the ./runInstaller, the preinstallation checking just hangs at Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. But the log file shows it failed during preinstallation checking as shown in Error encountered
Please help me with this problem.
Thank you
Ravindran Kanniah

It is because of UNIX shell. I also faced this error during installation.
First check your shell by the following command.
$ echo $SHELL
Then select the below.
For csh shell
$ setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
For sh,ksh and bash
$ DISPLAY=192.168.1.128:0.0
$ export DISPLAY
After you do this check the value of DISPLAY variable.
$ echo $DISPLAY
If the DISPLAY variable is set then run ./runInstaller.
One advice: Keep a complete log of your terminal session. This will help you in future :)

Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM+RAC

Gurus,
Need some suggestuon on Oracle 10g R2 installation with ASM and RAC option.
We have found many documents on the Oracle, HP, HP-Oracle CTC and third party web sites, but nothing that is specific to this particular combination of separate
ORACLE_HOMEs, ASM and 10g RAC CRS. It is unclear for me from the documentation how this combination of ASM and 10.2g RAC may best be installed.
The high level steps i got after reading lot of docs as follows - but i am not sure whether these are correct or not. if they are correct, can any one share their experience/notes please?
1) Install CRS
2) Install RDBMS for ASM HOME - create separater oracle home for ASM instance using OUI
3) Install RDBMS for RAC Database Home - create separater oracle home for RAC database using OUI
4) Create ASM database using DBCA -
5) Use dbca to create database.

Oracle provides 'paint by numbers' tutorials called 'Oracle By Example'. (Go to OTN, check under the Training tab)
They have one for a Windows based ASM/RAC that you might want to review. Not your specific environment, but the steps will be dag-nabbed close.
I recommend walking the path (http://otn.oracle.com >> training:OBE >> Database 10g Release 1:VMWare:Installation

Hi all,
We are able to resolve the above issue with the below solution.
Root cause of the issue:
You may have a temp directory in the path C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Local Settings\Temp. You got the above mentioned exception because of the temp directory path having spaces_+ in it.
Solution:
1. Create a new directory called TEMP in a different location for ex: C:\TEMP
2. Now, Right click on My computer --> Properties --> Advanced --> click on Environment Variables.
3. You should be having TEMP and TMP as variables under user variables section pointing to the C:\Documents and Settings\user_name\Local Settings\Temp path.
4. Edit the TEMP and TMP variables and mention C:\TEMP in the variable value.
5. Deinstall and re-install OBIEE 11g.
Happy OBIEE 11g installation!!
Thanks,
Rajesh Gurram

I had the same problem and solved it by doing the following:
Do not stop the DBCA to do this.
Go to Start->Control Panel-> Services -> oracleserviceyoursid and start the service. That will get you through that error.
Just in case you see this one as well....I did encounter a TNS error after that. I resolved this by commenting out (#) the line SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(NTS) in SQLNET.ORA file.

How to display an image in FORM 10g/11g data recovered through Web Services

I tried it doing it this way and it worked -
1. copy the image into the directory aliased in 9iAS configuration file as '/images/'.
2. In the PL/SQL code section after header, I write the following code -
begin
htp.p('<img src="/images/pobexp.gif"/>');
end;

OSB 11g Installation in production environment

I am trying to install OSB 11g in production mode. But, the problem is its always pointing to the evaluation database, even though I don't require any DB (not using the reporting feature or OWSM). I saw the following workaround and it worked fine, but is it the only way?
This error you will normally see if you use the built in pointbase db with production domains only.
I would recommend you use different database in pointbase or better an oracle database. Work around would be to delete WL_LLR* from you point base and the domain will start with out problem.
If you are not aware of how to delete the table in Pointbase/Derby, then other workaround (I normally use when using production domain with Derby/Poinbase) option would be to open config .xml and delete <jdbc-system-resource>
<name>wlsbjmsrpDataSource</name>
<target>AdminServer</target>
<descriptor-file-name>jdbc/wlsbjmsrpDataSource-jdbc.xml</descriptor-file-name>
</jdbc-system-resource>
Even if i configure a different DB, but it still pointing me to Derby?
Is this a bug with OSB 11g installation in a production env?
Thanks,

Hello Bijoy,
The evaluation database is provided for use by the sample applications and code examples. If you do not want to use evaluation DB then don't install it.
To not install evaluation DB, while installing weblogic, select custom installation type, uncheck the "Evaluation Database" checkbox ("Server Examples" will automatically get unchecked) and proceed. Now your weblogic will be installed without an evaluation DB.

Maximum Data file size in 10g,11g

DB Versions:10g, 11g
OS & versions: Aix 6.1, Sun OS 5.9, Solaris 10
This is what Oracle 11g Documentation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28320/limits002.htm
says about the Maximum Data file size
Operating system dependent. Limited by maximum operating system file size;typically 2^22 or 4 MB blocksI don't understand what this 2^22 thing is.
In our AIX machine and ulimit command show
$ ulimit -a
time(seconds)        unlimited
file(blocks)         unlimited <-------------------------------------------
data(kbytes)         unlimited
stack(kbytes)        4194304
memory(kbytes)       unlimited
coredump(blocks)     unlimited
nofiles(descriptors) unlimited
threads(per process) unlimited
processes(per user) unlimitedSo, this means, In AIX that both the OS and Oracle can create a data file of any Size. Right?
What about 10g, 11g DBs running on Sun OS 5.9 and Solaris 10 ? Is there any Limit on the data file size?

How do i determine maximum number of blocks for an OS?df -g would give you the block size. OS blocksize is 512 bytes on AIX.
Lets say the db_block_size is 8k. What would the maximum file size for data file in Small File tablespace and Big File tablespace be?Smallfile (traditional) Tablespaces - A smallfile tablespace is a traditional Oracle tablespace, which can contain 1022 datafiles or tempfiles, each of which can contain up to approximately 4 million (222) blocks. - 32G
A bigfile tablespace contains only one datafile or tempfile, which can contain up to approximately 4 billion ( 232 ) blocks. The maximum size of the single datafile or tempfile is 128 terabytes (TB) for a tablespace with 32K blocks and 32TB for a tablespace with 8K blocks.
