11G release 2 Minimal Software Install

Hi,
After analysing an 11G release 2 home directory i verified that ctx and owb directories wastes more than 1 GB... I don't use ctx (oracle text) neither owb (oracle warehouse builder). can i remove those 2 directories? I am preparing VM templates and I want to minimize the download size at all cost. Is there an option to disallow OUI to deploy these components?
Regards
Joao

Hi,
ctx + owb + apex + assistant seed database = about 1.2Gb ... a lovely gigabyte I won't waste :) I explain:
We are an ISV and we're creating VM templates do be distributed on DVD. Oracle Linux + Oracle Database + Weblogic + Forms Reports + Our App
So, every hundred MB are useful. Surely you know that a normal DVD only allows 4GB of data ;)
It's a pitty Oracle does not provide a minimal database install like Oracle XE. Oracle XE is available on a RPM with about 200MB...
So, this is why every MB is important for me...
Regards
Joao

Unable to install Oracle 11g Release 2 in windows 7 64 bit OS

C:\$Oracle_BASE$\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\owb\external\oc4j_applications\applications
but my unzip is successful for both the files, Please let me know why am getting this error when I have downloaded the files from Oracle site, Please let me know if I need to have

Thanks Srini,
After checking the link, I was able to install it but there were some error messages.
I have another problem log in the SQL PLUS. When I open the SQL PLUS window, it asked for Username and after I typed "sys" or "system" and hit Enter; it was prompted for password, however, it did not let me type in any word; and after I hit Enter again, the error message " ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error" appeared
Any hints would be apprecieted, thanks.
SamIt wasn't preventing you from typing a password, it just wasn't echoing your keystrokes back to the screen. This is a security security feature common to most software, not just oracle. Either when asking for a password, either echo back a 'masking' character like '*' or don't echo anything. It's so common, I'm surprised you seem to have never seen it before.
So after entering your password ... the 12560 probably comes from
1- the fact you didn't have the environment variable ORACLE_SID set, so sqlplus didn' know the name of the instance/process you wanted to connect to, or
2 - the windows service for the database was not started.
Those two possibilities account for 99.99999 pct of ora-12560 on Windows installations.

Install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 - Yes or No???

Hello,
We are setting up a new OEM Grid 12c system on Linux x86-64. We want to use it to manage several stand-alone, non-RAC, non-ASM database machines. The docs are unclear - do we have to install Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 on any of the database machines, including the machine that will support the OEM repository database, or not? Again, no plans to run Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM or Oracle RAC on that machine or any others.
The docs are not clear and we need a definitive answer.
Thank you, TL

Hello, OTN gurus.
Thanks for your attention to my original post. However, I am asking about a specific installation package called "Oracle Grid Infrastructure", which is separate from OEM Grid 12c and Oracle Database, and is supposed to be installed in its own home directory before the Oracle database software is installed in its oracle_home. "Oracle Grid Infrastructure" is also supposed to be installed in a different oracle_home from the OEM 12c Agent and a different oracle_home from Oracle Database, under specific conditions.
The docs say that you need Oracle Grid Infrastructure installed first in order to implement Oracle Restart and Oracle ASM for the Database. Other docs say you also need it for OEM Grid software. The docs are confusing on this point. I do not need Oracle Restart or Oracle ASM. I want to avoid installing this separate product, called Oracle Grid Infrastructure if I can. Does anyone know if a simple environment of Oracle Database 11gR2 (11.2.0.3), managed by OEM 12c OMS and Agents, requires "Oracle Grid Infrastructure"?
Thanks, TL

Problem in installing dowlnloaded oracle s/w version 11g Release 2

Hi
I downloaded oracle 11g release 2 s/w from www.oracle.com.I downloaded s/w for windows 64 bit os.my os is windows 7. that is why i downloaded it. It is in two zip folders.after completion of downloading i open first part and i executed setup.exe file in database folder of first part.
in the install options window i selected "create and configure database " option from the available 3 options.one of the other option is "install database s/w only" and other i could not remembered.
after this i given the location for storing installed files. this location is in same location where i downloaded the s/w(D:\ location).
then i clicked next and finish button. upto 48% it works fine, but after that it is showing error that one of the file is not available from the source directory.
so what i have to do next.
i tried again by clicking the universal installer option from the start->programs menu. It is asking the folder location for source files, i given this downloaded location. but it is showing error like "the specified location is a folder location", if i selected setup.exe file the it is showing "the specified file is incorrect".
so kindly help me out in this one.
Regards
Raavi Naveen

Hi Ravi,
Here the issue is Downloaded zip files are not extracted at the same location.
For example,the downloaded files are
11gR2_part1.zip and 11gR2_part2.zip
Please unzip as below
mkdir 11gR2
mv 11gR2_part1.zip 11gR2
mv 11gR2_part2.zip 11gR2
cd 11gR2
unzip 11gR2_part1.zip
unzip 11gR2_part2.zip
The zip will create necessary folders and place files, 2nd zip will also extract files in the same folder.
In case this doesn't resolve error kindly paste the error received in installation log
Thanks,
Krishna

This will be my second time trying to install Oracle Database 11g Release 2 on my Computer. I have Windows 7 x64 and when go through the setup phase, I receive numerous errors stating that files are missing and it will never get past that stage. I downloaded both folders for the database:

I waited for it up to two hours but noting happed, I don't know what to do. I have tried the same process for couple of times but it kept repeating the same thing.
Please can anybody help me out on what I should do.
Here is my computer configuration

AMD Processor 2.10GHz

I would recommend you install a VM on your Win 7 machine (e.g Virtualbox, free download from http://www.virtualbox.org), then install Oracle Linux 5.7 in the VM (free download from http://linux.oracle.com), then install Oracle 11gR2 in the OEL VM.
Be aware that your 2 GB RAM is on the low side and will make your PC (and the VM) pretty sluggish. I tried installing this very combination on an older (Pentium) Win XP machine with 3GB (allocating 1.5 GB to the VM) and it took the better part of 6-8 hours to install OEL and 11gR2 - and database performance is comparable to flowing molasses :-)

Can't install Data Guard using DBCA in Oracle 11g Release 2

I have installed Oracle database 11g Release 2 successfully. I have installed Label Security using DBCA, now when I am installing Database Vault using DBCA, it gives message "ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied" and exists back to DBCA.
What step I am missing? please suggest.
Regards and thx,

Hi,
I had the same issue too. I installed it on my desktop (server class option). Everything else including EM is working fine. However I got around the issue to an extent by manually running the catalog scripts for database vault. It should be located under $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/admin. You have to run the script catmac.sql. There is a catch though. You need to go through the contents of the script and execute the other scripts manually by supplying username and passwords (yes, it sucks!!) but I don't find any help on metalink for this issue.
Currently I am trying to create the realms but I am denied permission due to lack of "OPERATOR TARGET" privileges.
If someone can lead me to the correct place where I can look for what is missing, it would be great.
Thank you

11g Release 2 install missing packages

Hi,
I'm trying to install 11g Release 2 on a CentOS (4.9) box, but the pre-req check shows that I'm missing the following packages (I had 9 to begin):
gcc-3.4.6 (X86_64)
gcc-c++-3.4.6(X86_64)
libstdc++-devel-3.4.6
Tried to use the yum command "yum install gcc" but get the following error.
Error: cannot find a valid baseurl for repo:update
I think this is due to the "CentOS-Base.repo" file, which I've tried to update by changing the mirror URL's but no success.
Then tried to find the rpms online (http://rpm.pbone.net/) managed to find the majority of them but I can't seem to find the 3 listed above. The new versions such as gcc-3.4.6-8.x86_64.rpm don't work, so I need the exact match.
During the pre req I tried to select the "Ignore all" option and continue with the install but the installation fails with the following in /oraInventory/logs

Hi,
why are you using CentOS?
Why not simply use Oracle Linux. It is very similar to CentOS, it is free and totally supported with Oracle database.
ISOs can be downloaded at edelivery.oracle.com/linux
And update server is public-yum.oracle.com
This way you don't have to fight against problems, where only few people can help...

Install Oracle Database 11g release 2 on Oracle Linux 6.0?

I'm running Oracle Linux Server 6.0, and am trying to install Oracle Database 11g release 2 on it. The installation is failing because it says I need "glibc-2.3.4-2.41", but I think the OS came with glibc 2.12.
How do I upgrade glibc on this machine to glibc-2.3.4-2.41?

This isn't exactly related to forms, as it is merely a weblogic problem and not exactly related to forms (even though it is forms you have installed).
A quick google search however looks promising:

did you try any of these? Anyway; if none of these work I guess you are better off in a weblogic forum.

The beta is unlikely to have any bugs that would affect a student type usage. The fact that
it's now in Beta would lead me to believe that the full release is not far away - after all,
it is the same codebase - they just take things out!
You can deploy, distribute and even sell your apps developed on XE.

Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
(Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w, deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
and
then
I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)" from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
The values I filled for
1) Global Database Name : orcl
2) System Identifier : orcl
3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
Username : sys/ as sysdba
Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

Installation of Oracle 11g Release 2 on Windows Server 2008 R2

Hi:
When I tried to install 64-bit Oracle 11g Release 2 on a system running 64-bit Windows Server 2008 R2.
One of the system pre-requisites failed with the following error message:
Checking operating system requirements ...
Expected result: One of 5.0,5.1,5.2,6.0
Actual Result: 6.1
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed <<<<
Problem: Oracle Database 11g is not certified on the current operating system.
Recommendation: Make sure you are installing the software on the correct platform.
I presume 6.0 is Windows 2008 Server and 6.1 should be Release 2.
Does this mean that this version is not compatible with Server 2008 Release 2?

Which is why I gave you the link - so you could monitor for yourself.OK, thanks...
I was just hoping there was an official release date and I just couldn't find it.
Is there any information about features in 11gR2 for Windows available yet?
Or can you maybe tell me if it will be possible to mount the new "database filesystem" like we can do on linux?
I remember oracle did something similar with Oracle ifs (Internet File System) back in Oracle 9i. (or was it 8i?)

3rd party software installed on the Palm

I have a Palm Treo 755p. Which has three different 3rd party software install on it. The 3rd party software consist of UptoDate, Documents to Go, Intellsync. At any time one of these third party applications will reboot the just touching/clicking on anything within the 3rd party application. My short term solution has been to just reinstall the application but now I am wondering if its something bigger like the Palm cannot handle all three 3rd party applications.
