Companion CD installation - getting Oracle Database 10g installation

Hi everyone,
I want to install the Oracle Companion CD (to use HTTP server and HTMLDB) on Solaris with Oracle Database 10g. I downloaded the companion CD and when running the installer I am getting "Welcome to the Oracle Database 10g Installation". I have already installed the database so my question is why the installer is asking me to install another database ? The documentation is explaining that the user would have the choice to select an HTTP server installation.
Best regards,
Othman

Get the companion CD from the same place as the database. Start at http://otn.oracle.com, click on Downloads, and to to the Database download
Get the step by step instructions from the documentation. Start at http://tahiti.oracle.com, go to the database documentation for the version you are using, click on the Books tab, search for "Companion CD Installation Guide for [your operating system]" or "Companion CD Quick Installation Guide for [your operating system]" and follow the steps.
I strongly encourage you to install ONLY the HTTP server from the companion CD, and to install it into a separate ORACLE_HOME.
After that, I suggest you use APEX instead of HTMLDB (APEX is the next generation of HTMLDB and is MUCH better.) To get that going, start at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html and look at "Documentation and Tutorials" for the installlation guide.

  • Installation of Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 Server

    Hi Guys,
    We have to install Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003.
    I read on net, metalink and OTN as well and it seems there is no single 10.2.0.3 setup available to do so.
    One has to upgrade from earlier version to 10.2.0.3.
    Is that so? Is this the only way?
    I mean if we want new and fresh 10.2.0.3 then don't we have installer for it?
    In this case we will have to install 10.1.0.2 and then upgrade? (we have 10.1.0.2 installable with us)
    And if at all that is the only path available then for 10.2.0.3 on Windows 32 bit - Patchset 5337014 i.e. p5337014_10203_WINNT.ZIP from metalink is the correct patch?
    Thanks in advance!
    Av.

    Hi guys,
    I donwloaded patchset - 5337014, and in its readme it is specified to download and install patch - 5601428.
    So I downloaded 5601428 and set ORACLE_HOME and then fired command -
    D:\oracle_pathces\5601428>optach apply
    and i got error saying -
    This Oracle Home does not have components/versions required by the patch.

  • Installation error - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

    Hi - I've just tried to install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from the Oracle website and I'm getting this error.
    Error 1327 Invalid Drive: I:\ . I've googled the error but can't find much. It seems that the path is hardcoded into the msi installation package.
    Anyone else seen this issue before as I'm at a loss at what to do ?
    I'm wondering do I have to create an I:\ drive on my machine but that seems a little unusual
    Hope someone can help
    Cheers.

    This problem may occur if you have used the Disk Administrator utility included in Microsoft Windows to change the drive letter of the hard disk that the operating system is installed on, for example, the C drive.
    The problem occurs because the Oracle Universal Installer uses registry keys to determine the locations of certain folders that are required to install Oracle. If the drive letter of the hard disk that contains the operating system has been changed, the registry keys refer to nonexistent folders and Setup fails.
    To correct this problem, use the Windows Disk Administrator program to restore the drive letter of the hard disk to its original value:
    1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and click Disk Administrator.
    2. Right-click the drive whose letter you want to change. On the shortcut menu, click Assign Drive Letter.
    3. Select the correct drive letter from the list and click OK.
    If you are prompted to quit the Disk Administrator or to restart your computer, do so. Once the computer has restarted, attempt to install again.

  • Web Server Options for APEX Installation on Oracle Database 10g

    Hi. We are installation a APEX on a test server that is running Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0. As I understand it there are two Web Server Options:
    1) Oracle HTTP Server (Apache)
    2) Oracle Application Express Listener
    Do both of these work for Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0? I thought I remember reading somewhere that only the Oracle Application Express Listener would only work with database version 11 or higher.

    Do both of these work for Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0?Yes.
    I thought I remember reading somewhere that only the Oracle Application Express Listener would only work with database version 11 or higher. No, that restriction (with the exception of 10g XE) applies to the third web server option which you haven't mentioned: Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (EPG), as discussed in your previous thread: +{thread:id=2201975}+

  • Getting Oracle database 10g express

    Hello,
    I am unable to download the oracle database 10g express because the huge file size of the program for my dial-up conection.
    I was wondering if someone is kind enough to send me a CD copy of this program and documentation trough snail mail.
    I would like to be part of this great community, it's just I can't get this free database.
    Write to me at: libertyar AT yahoo DOT no
    Many thanks in advance!.

    Argentina

    Hans:
    Many thanks for your suggestion. I'll see if I can find an Oracle Users Group in Argentina, the problem is that where I live there are not many programers and much less using Oracle products (delphi, visual basic perhaps). I've emailed to Oracle in Latinamerica, but no replys yet. I could try to download using a program like Download Accelerator to resume downloading one day and start the next one, but my ISP disconnect me every 2 hours so it's not a solution (average transfer rate 3 Kb/s). CyberCoffe's are not good enough either because they charge per hour, doesn't matter if download is succesful or not and since they aren't 24 hours open I can't do that. Also transfer rate is low. Another thing I was thinking was to ask in a Computer Store if they can do the download for me and burn it to a CD/DVD and charge me the service. Usually they don't do the job because it's tedious and time consuming. For them is easier sell piracy copies of popular games for kids. No programming tools whatsoever.
    I thought that since 4D Spain sent me a CD of the 4th Dimension 2004 for free, perhaps Oracle LatinAmerica could do the same. My license of 4th Dimension don't let me deploy apps.
    Anyway, many thanks for your reply and best regards to all the people in this community.

  • Need step by step installation of oracle database 10g on mac os x (10.5)

    Does anybody know step by step installation of Database 10g on mac os x?
    Thanks

    First you download Oracle 10.1.0.3: The only supported database version.
    Then you beg Apple to send you a copy of Panther 10.3.6: The only supported operating system version.
    Then, if you are familiar with FreeBSD and/or Mac OSX, you should have it up and running in a day or so.
    If you are thinking you can do this with 10gR2 or above on Tiger or Leopard you might want to consider that dropping a brick on your foot is faster and will generally produce the same sensation.

    thats fine that I should nt contuinue the installation if the prerequisties isnt match
    but my question is "if we are doing the same installation in GUI based then we have to select that failed components and verify it again, i.e. I select that failed component and retry it (that the same thing done by me) and its working perfectly..." and my installation is successfully completed with any errors.
    So, how can I do the same thing through command line, IF I want to retry for the failed components?

  • Unable to continue Oracle Database 10g R2 installation on IBM AIX 5.3L

    I am facing some difficulties in installing the above. My environment is as follows:
    Server is a IBM system P, OS is AIX 5.3L and oracle version is Oracle Database 10g R2 (10.2).
    I encounter my problem when asked to changed/edit the shell script when changing oracle users. I can't find the % vi .login file. And I'm not sure how to proceed.
    Please advice as to what needs to be done.
    Thank you

    i'm using bash shell.If you are using a bash shell then .bash_profile is used by default.
    It is located in user's home, if it does not exist then simply create it.
    can this file be edited after installation?Yes. And also you can set the enviroment temporary (just for current session)
    I just can't find the vi .login file."vi" is command (text editor very common in Unix and Unix like world)
    .login does not need to exist (see .bash_profile as above). Note .login is ignored by bash shell.

  • Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Installation

    Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Release for Microsoft Windows installation successful, no problems.

    Hi Rekha,
    The format mask 999G999G999G999G990D0000 is the format mask that I selected from the software itself. I also use this format mask for a single record update. If' s ok, no error, but with tabular form with multiple record update, it shows error .I also changed the decimal point to two digits ,select from software pop-up window (this was tested in the workspace provide by Oracle). It still shows error. Last test I put the space like 1 111,111.00 in a single record update it shows error (but if I put 1 in front of 111,111 without space it's ok-no space before). My point is from user point of view.In the first time user input 100000 the software accept it. Opp! it has to be 1100000. The user comes back after submit and put 1 without comma.It shows error (in tabular form with multiple record update not in single row update). While in the first time the user do not to key any comma at all. This may makes some confuses both the users and the developers which had to check error by adding program to checking some where in Page Processing or Page Rendering.
    Thanks

    win xp pro sp2
    I want to know if my pc will be able to run " Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) " standard edition on it.
    <<http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winsoft.html>>
    I thought of increasing RAM, but it is not feasible.
    I know i could run oracle XE, but can my pc also run the standard edition.
    I could not find minimum hardware requirements for standard edition on this site.
    anyway, i will use it for sql and and other advanced concepts in RDBMS which i may learn during my course in database. so i prefer standard edition instead of XE
    any help greatly appreciated
    thanks in advance

    I suggest you not to doubt   regarding   Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) installation.
    It is not necessary. If you don't receive an answer within a reasonable amount of time you could edit your thread with whatever ( a period is enough) to raise it to the top once again.
    It becomes difficult for us to track duplicated threads and unnecessarily duplicates efforts.

  • Installation of Oracle AS 10g on Red Hat ES 3.0

    Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0 (All issues are cleared and u will b done with no error like Java Configuration Failed and make files errors)
    Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 Custom Installation
    Copy from OTN Note
    Start
    Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.
    1.     Boot the server using the first CD.
    o     You may need to change your BIOS settings to allow booting from the CD.
    2.     The boot screen appears with the boot: prompt at the bottom of the screen.
    o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
    o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
    3.     Language Selection
    o     Accept the default.
    4.     Keyboard Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    5.     Welcome Screen
    o     Click on Next.
    6.     Mouse Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    7.     Installation Type
    o     Select Custom.
    8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
    o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
    (WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
    This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
    The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
    - 100MB /boot partition
    -1,500MB swap partition—Set this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
    -7,150MB root partition— This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
    9.     Boot Loader Configuration
    o     Accept the default.
    10.     Network Configuration
    o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
    o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
    o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
    o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
    11.     Firewall Configuration
    o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
    12.     Additional Language Support

    Then restart the computer
    Login with Oracle user
    now path setting as
    I have done this by make two environment files
    Infra.env
    TMP=/tmp
    Export TMP
    TMPDIR=$TMP
    Export TMPDIR
    ORACLE_BASE=/oracle
    Export ORACLE_BASE
    ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/appsrv/infra
    Export ORACLE_HOME
    ORACLE_SID=asdb     (if u will not define SID here then while starting database u will face an error ORA-07217:sltn:environment variable cannot be evaluated)
    Export ORACLE_SID
    PATH=/usr/bin:/usr/sbin
    Export PATH
    PATH=$PATH:$ORACLE_HOME/bin     (u can include command paths like dcm as u needed)
    Export PATH
    LD_ASSUME_KERNEL=2.4.19
    Export LD_ASSUME_KERNEL
    Copy this file with name as.env and change ORACLE_HOME from infra to as.
    . ./infra.env
    DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY
    Xhost +
    Now u can check that DISPLAY is ok by run the command xclock if clock appears then ok else set DISPLAY with root user ok
    Start installation from CD 1 .
    . ./runInstaller
    Press Y               (There is no need to disturb, upgrade, degrade any package)
    Press Y
    Installation will start while installing and reaches at ~50% then go to /oracle/appsrv/infra/bin open relink file and change at line # 50 i.e. remove 2 brackets
    ] –o [  and at line # 102 make= /usr/ccs/bin/make to /usr/bin/make remove ccs and save the file
    There will no error in installation in infrastructure
    Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructure’s installation plz rename that 3 files as
    Mv coredb coredb-infra
    Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
    Mv ora     â€¦     ora…-infra
    If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
    When problem comes?
    AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

    Hi,
    I tried uname -a and it returns the following:
    Linux NLABLINUX 2.4.21-20.EL.c0 #1 Thu Sep 9 02:07:03 EDT 2004 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux
    We have the following problems:
    1. I am having a box running RHEL 3.0 (got from centos.org). I have Oracle 10g running ok. Now I tried to install ASMLIB downloaded from technet. The files are:
    rpm -Uvh oracleasm-2.4.21-EL-1.0.3-1.i686.rpm \
         oracleasmlib-1.0.0-1.i386.rpm \
         oracleasm-support-1.0.3-1.i386.rpm \
    When I tried to install these files, I got the following error:
    Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
    Also when I try to run /etc/init.d/oracleasm , I get the same error
    Checking for Red Hat enterprise kernel: [FAILED]
    2. We created 4 raw partitions /dev/raw/raw1 - 4 using raw command.
    [root@rcdell root]# ls -l /dev/raw/raw[1,2,3,4]
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 1 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw1
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 2 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw2
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 3 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw3
    crw-rw---- 1 oracle dba 162, 4 Sep 9 11:05 /dev/raw/raw4
    then tried this:
    SYS at +ASM on 29-DEC-04 >create diskgroup dg1 normal redundancy
    2 failgroup c1 disk '/dev/raw/raw1'
    3 failgroup c2 disk '/dev/raw/raw2';
    create diskgroup dg1 normal redundancy
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00600: internal error code, arguments: [kfdsk::grpmatch], [1],

  • What content of Oracle Database 10g Companion CD Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0)

    Hi
    I want to download the 10G Standard Edition , Now i want to know what is content of
    Oracle Database 10g Companion CD Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) ?
    is it required for OCA exam preparation ?

    The documentation site (http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1 for 10gR2) provides 3 sets of installation documents:
    - server
    - companion
    - client
    Each document describes what is on the CD. Right at the front. In summary:
    Oracle HTTP Server
    Oracle HTML DB
    Oracle JDBC Development Drivers
    Oracle SQLJ
    Oracle Database Examples
    Oracle Text Supplied Knowledge Bases
    Oracle Workflow Server
    Oracle Ultra Search
    JPublisher
    Oracle Workflow middle-tier components
    It also contains the Java-based Oracle Enterprise Manager.
    You do not need it to study for the OCA. However, having samples that work and ready made data is very handy.
    Step 1, or possibly even step '0' of the OCA training should always be 'how to use the documentation'. At least, that's the way I teach the OCA/OCP courses.
