Checking Oracle Home path for spaces

Hi,
Since I'm only with 500 Mbytes of physical memory so I've got the error when setting up 11g standard edition. Can I force to continue?

Bst Rgds,
HuaMinYes, a HOME with spaces, while theoretically possible, will cause some grief at some time.
Yes, 500MB is theoretically possible, but painfully slow. First thing to turn off would be the OEM DB Console.

Help please..how to specify Oracle Home directory for create AS connection

I have linux based application server 10g having IP 121.100.115.2 and name as10g.ourdomain.com (/home/oracle/OraHome_2 is AS directory)
I have developed a simple jsp page using JDeveloper10g. In order to deploy this project, I am trying to create Application Server Connection using wizard.
step1:
connection name: as10g
connection type:oracle application server 10g
step2:
user name: ias_admin
password: mypassord
step3:
enterprise manager OC4J host name: 121.100.115.2
enterprise manager OC4J http port: 1156
Remote Server's Oracle home directory: /oracle/OraHome_2
step4
RMI Server URL: ormi://121.100.115.2:23791

step5
When I click on test button I get this error:
Test failed (-2). Invalid Oracle Home directory

When you create the stand alone, in options you can actually set the temp directory and default directory. You can change it there OR in goto options and check for libraries/directories. You can change it there too.
Kudos always welcome for helpful posts

Whenever i start my database i want to SET my ORACLE HOME & PATH.

Hi,
I have installed my ORACLE 10g on RHEL 5.I have created a starter database named orcl.I have exported my ORACLE_HOME,PATH and SID.Then i Start the listener,database,dbconsole. I have got the connection to my database also, but the problem is whenever i quit the terminal i want to reset the entire thing once more.Is there any other option to start the instance without resetting the ORACLE_HOME,SID,PATH.
Plz help me...

Hi,
there are 2 ways to set your environment:
1) Make amendments to your profiles in .profile
As with every Oracle installation you need settings for different Oracle instances, so you can have your options:
echo
echo "Available Oracle environments are:"
echo " 1 - Head Office                 (Oracle10g)"
echo " 2 - Oracle Application Ser. (Oracle10gAS)"
echo
echo "\n     Oracle environment [1] ? \c"
read C
if [ "$C" -ne '1' -a "$C" -ne '2' ]
then
    C=1
    echo "Default set to ${C}."
fi
case $C in
1)     export ORACLE_SID=mydb1
        export ORAVER=10.2.0
        export UID=oracle10
        export ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/$UID/$ORAVER/oracleDB

esacBut then you have to logout/login or run your profile to change the settings:
. .profile
2) run ". oraenv" that will ask you how to reset the variables.

Oracle Home Path

I am setting the path like this
ORACLE_HOME===D:\Oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1
Path =%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;D:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\bin;D:\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Client_1\jre\1.4.2\bin\client;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%JAVA_HOME%;C:\PROGRA1\CA\SHARED1\SCANEN1;C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\ScanEngine;C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\CAUpdate\;C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\ThirdParty\;C:\Program Files\CA\SharedComponents\SubscriptionLicense\;C:\PROGRA1\CA\ETRUST~2
But still it is not installed.
Can any one help me reagrding this.
Thanks

maybe you are trying to overcome the problem how to setup the appropriate path when installing more than one oracle_home?
The right way to use user specify settings for variable path on the user environment level. That means that you have to remove them from the system environment path level and put the values to the appropriate user environments.
using environment variables in environment variables is a quite tricky job. As far as I can remember you can only reference variables which are already defined (the are defined in alphabetical order therefore A=%B% will fail, B=%A% will be ok).
Referencing User Variables in System Variable values will fail, because there are processes which will only see system environment (such started using LOCAL_SERVICE) and will therefore have no user variable value.
Be aware that you can not use a command prompt using set .... to test what is possible in setting environment. The DOS Box itself does not have the same rules / order for setting up the environment.
By the way:
ORACLE_HOME===D:\Oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1
looks very strange, it should look like this:
ORACLE_HOME=D:\Oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1

[ER] Jdev should check paths for blanks at startup

Hi,
Jdeveloper should check the relevant paths for blanks (and other problem making characters) and raise a warning message to the user.
There are new posts nearly every week in this forum which are caused by blanks in jdev path or similar things.
regards
Peter

Hi,
though it sounds like a plan, I'd prefer the bugs to be filed and fixed. Since errors propagate from one release to the next, chances are that if we would ask our users to adapt their development environment to known issues in JDeveloper, probably in 2015 you will have to move your desk to south at sunrise, shout cheers when the splash screen launches and press any key every five minutes.
I too use blanks in my install path for the purpose of detecting issues and file them accordingly. I would like to ask anyone detecting a path related issue to track it down so it reproduces and report it.

Remove Oracle client path from windows 2008 64 bit

Hi All,
I had to unstall the epm Hyperion product after i found that installation need to done on a different language, which has oracle client for both 32 and 64 bit. But when i reinstall it is complaining about the oracle home path.
Below is the error i get from the log.
[FATAL] [INS-32053] The original name of the Oracle Home directory specified already exists.
CAUSE: The name of the Oracle home directory Home indicated on the command line corresponded to a name of origin existing Oracle Home directory in the central inventory.
ACTION: Choose another name for Oracle Home directory. Abandon this installation session and try again.
I have made sure that the filesystem is completely is removed after the unstallation except for these client files which i have removed manually.
Looks like the unnstalation doesn't happen correctly for the clients and old path is somewhere still exists. I have removed the client path from environment variable path list and tried again but no luck.
Can anyone help me to identify the places where i need to look to remove the earlier Oracle Home.
Thanks

The registry, perhaps, or the inventory (which is in c:\program files\oracle or c:\program files (x86)\oracle - cannot recall right now).
However, if you search Oracle Support for "windows clean machine," you can find an article that shows you how to remove every trace of Oracle software from your Windows computer.

How to Find Oracle Home Name

Hi All,
I am trying to find what is the name provided for ORACLE HOME NAME for SSO Midtier.
The install log files are not available. Now when i try to patch the SSO it is prompting for the Oracle home name and path, for which I donot know the value for Oracle Home Name.
Is there any file apart from install log will have this value or is there any way i can see it from the OEM console?
Regards,
Balaji

Hi,
The server has:
1 SSO
1 MidTier
But have been installed with the same Oracle Home Name - oracleas
Now I have to patch the SSO to 10.1.2.2.0
During patching if I give oracelas1 as oracle home name it automatically changes its path to Mid Tier path.
If i manually change it to SSO path it throws an error.
If i give a new Oracle Home Name manually and type the oracle home for SSO, it says this SSO doesnot need the patch 10.1.2.2.0 but the SSO still runs on 10.1.2.0.2
Let me know if i am clearly.

Balaji

Oracle 10g Configuration for Student Edition

To Whom It May Concern,
I am currently enrolled in an Oracle 10g course at a local community college, and am using the "Guide to Oracle 10g" textbook by Morrison, Morrison & Conrad (ISBN: 0-619-21629-8). This book came with two CD's that contain a scaled-down student version of two Oracle 10g databases (Northwoods University & Clearwarter Traders).
I have attempted to install and configure the database software so that I can log on to the databases using SQL*Plus, but I am unable to do so. When attempting to log on, I get a "TNS:no listener" error (ORA-12541) or similar error. I have tried adding and configuring a listener, net service, etc. using the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant, but nothing works. The configuration tests always fail. I am sure that I am using the correct host name (I checked the TNSNames.ora file).
Can you please assist? Do you have documentation (or advice) on how to successfully configure this software?
Thank you,
Greg

Thanks again for your reply, Phiri. I tried your suggestion, but still get the same errors. I tried searching the Oracle Home directory for a batch or executable file with the name "lsnrctl", but the search only returns two htm files. It looks like it can't execute the program simply because it does not exist.
NOTE: According to the .htm files, you are supposed to include the listener name after the command.
Ex: lsnrctl start My_Listener_01
I tried this, but it did not work either

Two Oracle Homes

OS: Windows XP, 32-bit
Oracle DB 1: Oracle 9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.7.0
Oracle DB 2: Oracle10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0
How can I manage environment variables like ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID for both oracle databases?
What I do now:
Depending on the DB I want to use I set up ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID accordingly, describe the path to the oracle home directory in the PATH env variable and start the appropriate oracle service from Services.
As you can imagine this is unthinkable.
(Besides, I noticed that in the Registry I have key for oracle home only for the 10g DB. I don't know why is this like that. But for Oracle 9i I have no keys in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE-> SOFTWARE -> ORACLE.)
Could anyone suggest cleverer method to manage both databases in windows without the need manually to set variables each time when I switch?

Perhaps one easy method was to setup 2 batch files, e.g.:
C:\WINDOWS> copy con 9.bat
@echo off
set ORACLE_SID=inst9
set ORACLE_BASE=path_to_base
set ORACLE_HOME=path_to_home
etc...
prompt [oracle 9i] $p$g
echo "Environment Oracle 9i"
Control-Z Return
Create a 10.bat with appropriate data too.
If you put the batch files in C:\windows they will be in your path and you can simply type "9" or "10" depending on which Oracle environment you need.

How to check oracle properly installed or not?

Hello Friends,
How to check oracle properly installed or not. cause during installation time the person who installed faced many problems. we have RISK base IBM p5 Series server and Oracle 10g RAC.
i want to check installation made properly or not.
Thanks,
Nikunj Patel

Installation for RAC environments means you are not only talking about one single installation, but several installations, and the number of installations and checking processes depend on factors such as the clusterware you are using, if you are using the Oracle clusterware or the proprietary clusterware, if you are using a separate oracle home to install the ASM or if you are using the same oracle home for both, the ASM and the RDBMS.
First you must ensure you have installed all prerequisites according to your platform, i.e. patches, packages, kernel parameters, etc. which are listed at the install guide corresponding to your platform. Then you should use the cluvfy (cluster verifier tool) to check if the different install phases are properly installed
The most critical and most of the times, problematic installation phase is the clusterware. So you should specify if you installed the Oracle clusterware or the proprietary clusterware. In a RAC environment if your clusterware is not properly installed, most probably you won't have a running RAC, so if your environment is functional there you may have high probabilities that it is OK, but to make sure, launch the cluvfy tool.
The cluvfy tool verifies the process since the beginning and it ensures your environment meets the required minimum requirements to be at an operational level, it checks the pre/post install phases for the clusterware, pre/post install of the rdbms, and it is launched from the OS. It can be obtained as a standalone product or you can use the one found at the clusterware Oracle Home. For further references on this tool I suggest you to read this
