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.

Need to install Oracle 8i on a windows server 2003 64 bits

Even if not supported from Oracle, is it possible ?
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Good Afternoon.
Thanks for your suggestion.
Here is an update:
I have renamed the 'symcjit.dll' file as per your note and starting the installation process again.
This time the oracle installer came up and tried to install the products.
I tried to install the client on my D drive (d:\oracle\ora81).
The source path was showing as 'drive letter:\oracle\oracle 8i\stage\products.jar'.
While loading the products information, I got an error message which stopped me going further in the installation process. Below is the error:
"Invalid Staging Area. There are no top level componenets for Windows NT available for install from this staging area. "
Any suggestion or help will be greately appreciated.
Thanks,
Satish.

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.

I am trying to remote into a Windows Server 2003 from a Windows 7 machine and having issues

I am trying to remote into a Windows Server 2003 from a Windows 7 machine. It says "The terminal server has exceeded the maximum number of allowed connections".
My first stop in trying to solve this problem was here:
[URL="http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows/command-line-hack-for-terminal-server-has-exceeded-the-maximum-number-of-allowed-connections/"]howtogeek.com[/URL]
And it says:
[I]
[INDENT]This problem happens because Windows only allows two remote terminal services connections when you are in administrative mode, and you’ve either got two people already on that server, or more likely, you’ve got a disconnected session that still thinks
it is active.
The problem with this error is that you have to actually get on the server console to fix the problem if the server isn’t in a domain. ([B]If you are in a domain, then just open Terminal Services Manager and log off or disconnect the sessions[/B])[/INDENT][/I]
So it seems to suggest that all I have to do really is to run the Terminal Services Manager but I cannot find it.
This web site from mssqltips.com [URL="http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1981/remote-desktop-error-terminal-server-has-exceeded-the-maximum-number-of-allowed-connections/"](click here)[/URL] says all I need to do is first execute "mstsc /
admin" from the command line. But, when I do that, I get a message when I try to remote to the server, that says this: "To log on to this remote console session, you must have administrative permissions on this computer".
So, what now? What do you suggest?

Hi Bobby,
Yes, it is by design. By default, Windows Server only accepts two concurrent administrative sessions (Administrative Mode). It means that only two administrators can work on the server at
the same time.
If you would like more concurrent sessions, you need to purchase RDS CALs, install Terminal Services related server roles with proper configurations on the server.

Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server

I downloaded "Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP" and installed the personal edition. It did not install successfully and gave this error message:
Error while Installing Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
The specified key was not found while trying to GetValue
- stop installation of all products.
- stop installation of this component only.
The installation of Oracle 9i Database was unsuccessful
The Integration tools and client installed just fine from the same download. Why didn't the database install successfully? All the other components seemed to install just fine and the database appeared to be created - but I could not open it and there was not start menu option for DBA Studio.
I am running Windows 2000 professional with Service Pack 3 on a 2 GHz Pentium4 machine with 512MB Rambus RAM, 32bit color graphics ATI All-in-Wonder card, about 40GB of disk space, a local peer-to-peer network via cat5 cable to another Win2k P3 machine, and Creative Soundblaster Audigy card. Do I need to adjust any network settings? Would it help or hinder if I installed MS IIS? WinNT has a Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) but Win2k has COM+ instead; does that make a difference in terms of the installer looking for MTS? Do I need to configure COM+ in some special way / change settings?

HI Salman,
I am doing the following.
1. I am installing Oracle 10.2.01 Database(Not Client) on my windows Xp laptop. While installation i Choose the custom option and Check the Oracle Windows Interface. In that i check the "Install Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction server" checkbox. The installation goes on fine till 99% and when it tries to install the
Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction server it gives an error saying that "Microsoft Transaction server" was not found on the system.
I had previously installed the same on my laptop and it was working fine. but after uninstallation when i try to re install i get this problem.
If i go to the services.msc option in windows i still see the OracleMTSRecoveryService option even when i have uninstalled oracle. But when i try to start the services i get the following error
Could Not start the OracleMTSRecoveryService on the local computer.
Error 3: The system cannot find the file specified.
Any help on how to resolve this issue will be highly appreciated

When will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX6.1

Hi all
I'm sorry if I post it in a wrong place... But I really want to know when will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX 6.1?
I've searched in metalink but found nothing useful. Is there anybody can give me a link of Oracle's roadmap for platform support?
Thanks!

Oracle does not announce release dates and neither
does any other software company.But Oracle does have a very good track record of supporting their products on new windows releases extremely close to the windows release date. Clearly they can't support on an unreleased platform though. Given that the launch of Server 2008 isn't even complete worldwide yet (19th March in the UK for example) it would seem that this enquiry is a little premature.

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.

Microsoft Windows Server 2003. Move from SP1 to Windows Service Pack 2?

Hello,
Our hosting system is:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 R2 Server 5.2 Service Pack 1 (32-bit)
or
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Server 5.2 Service Pack 1 (32-bit)
on which we have a Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3.0
running.
Now our IT is demanding the Windows Service Pack 2 to be installed on the server.
Are there known issues or can this be done (about 30 patches) without any considerations?
Thanks,

Oracle certifies against the specific Microsoft operating system (OS) and, if applicable, service packs (SPs) stated in the Oracle product documentation. Oracle will support the use of our products on any later SP or OS security patch as soon as that SP or patch becomes generally available. Depending upon the severity, quantity, and impact of the SP or patch-related issues found, Oracle may recommend that customers wait until relevant Oracle patches have been released before upgrading to a particular SP or OS patch. Oracle may recommend or discourage the installation of specific SPs or patches if it will significantly affect the operation of Oracle software, either positively or negatively. If such a statement is deemed necessary, then Oracle Development will disseminate this statement in as timely a fashion as possible after the release of the SP or patch.
There are no known issues with ServicePack 2.
