Delete Oracle database software

Hi people,
I´ve uninstalled a central instance, now I want to uninstall the database software, but in the installation guide in chapter 6 (Additional information) It says the next:
The Oracle software is installed on all hosts where an SAP instance is running, for example, on a central instance host, database host, or dialog inst ance host. Do not delete t he Oracle database software, if another SAP inst ance is running on the same host.
But the uninstalled instance was in the oracle home --> oracleCH1102 and the other instance that is up and running is in another oracle home --> oraclePES102. I have to follow the guide or can uninstall the oracle database software because in your oracle home there aren´t any instance up and running?
More thanks

hi,
make a backup for your oracle central directory before any detachment.
if your oracle version is 11g, you can no longer launch OUI to detach oracle home. please have a look on Note 1525025 - Oracle 11.2.0: Oracle Software Deinstallation.
Cheers,
Thanks,
Nicholas Chang

Installation error message for Oracle Database software for version 10g

Would someone be able to advise why I keep getting the following error message whilst installing Oracle trial Database software for version 10g Release 2 Standard Edition, Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition? Link listed below : -
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/index.html
Error message "Cannot create directory"C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_7\cfgtoollogs\dbca\projemp"
Below is the 12 steps that I go through, please advise what I'm doing wrong : -
1. (Operations) default is Create a database
2. (Database templetes) default is general purpose
3. (Database Identification) projemp.local for Global database name & projemp for SID
4. (Management options) default is "Configure the database with Enterprise manager, also the options button has been clicked for "Use database control for database management"
5. (Database Credentials) the options button has been clicked for "Use the same password for all accounts" so I've set up a new password, was that correct?
6. (Storage options) the options button is clicked for "File System - use the file system for database storage.
7. (Database file locations) the options button is clicked for "Use database file locations for template" Is this option correct? Other options are Use common location for all database files or use Oracle-managed files?
8. (Recovery configuration) the options button is clicked for "Specify flash recovery area
9. (Database content) nothing has been selected, the only option is "Sample schemas" should that be clicked?
10. (Initialization parameters) the options button is clicked for "Typical- allocate memory as a % of the total physical memory
11. (Database storage) no options available
12. (Creation options) the options button has been selected for "Create Database"
Click finish
I then get a screen stating General purpose, click OK then I get the following error message as stated at the start of this e-mail ""Cannot create directory"C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_7\cfgtoollogs\dbca\projemp".
Regards

I've removed the software from my computer using control panel, programs & features then uninstall once but the other five times the software hasn't been listed. Whilst the Oracle was on my task bar I was able to install using Start > Programs > Oracle - HOME-NAME > Database Administration > Database Configuration Assistant.No you didn't. Database Configuration Assistant does not remove software. It can remove a database. As I mentioned before, there is a difference between the software and the objects that software manages. Deleting an Excel spreadsheet is not the same as deleting Microsoft Office. Deleting an Oracle database with Database configuration assistant is not the same as removing the Oracle software.

Now that oracle is not on my task bar I've unzipped the link below, clicked on db, Disk1, setup, changed the Database password (is that correct?) install and I get the following error message "Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Failed<<<<<
Problem: The install has detected that the primary IP address of the system is DHCP-assigned.
Recommendation: Oracle supports installations on systems with DHCP-assigned IP addresses;
However, before you can do this, you must configure the Microsoft LoopBack Adaptor to be the primary network adapter on the system. See the installation Guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP."
So what did you do with the above error message? Did you follow up on what it said? Did you read the very fine Installation Guide that comes with the software? Did you read the section on networking considerations where it discussed DHCP assigned addresses and installing the loopback adapter?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/index.html
Ok, that link takes us to the download page, which does not shed any light at all on your problems
I'm using Windows Vista Home Premium, 32 bit operating system, and my computer is saying I have 142 GB free space.
If you read the installation manual that came with the downloaded software, you'd have seen in the prerequisites that Home editions of Windows are NOT listed as supported platforms, whereas Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions specifically ARE listed as supportd.
Hope this is some help.And
I'm not to clever on computers so would you be able to advise how I get to the command window to issue the SET command please?
Also I've no idea what OS user I am, I'm taking an on-line Oracle course and been advised to install "Oracle Database software for version 10g Release 2 Standard Edition, Standard Edition One, and Enterprise Edition"
How do I find out if I'm part of an Administrator, ORA_DBA group ?
Can you walk me through how to create the directory from command line please?Ok, given the above statements from you, I'm not even sure where to begin. I don't want to be cruel, but this self-admitted lack of even the most rudimentary knowledge by someone attempting to learn about Oracle is truly astounding. What course are you taking? Why are you taking this course?

Study: Oracle database software has more flaws than SQL Server

Hi,
Study: Oracle database software has more flaws than SQL Server
Microsoft is often unfairly slammed for security issues, says NGSS
http://www.computerworld.com/action/article.do?command=viewArticleBasic&articleId=9005383&intsrc=hm_list
Post your comments on this stupid artical.
Thanks!
M T

This is a case where size does matter.
When they say errors reported on oracle are about 4 times more than the ones reported on SQL server they forgot to say something like: SQL server is able to do... what a 10%, a 5% or whatever of what oracle can do.
Anyway who sayd this forgot to say that they worked with microsoft trying to improve SQL sever security features as well.
http://www.nextgenss.com/press-releases/ngs-and-the-sql-server-security-essential-guide/
They have a reason to say it. Who would say "I made a bad job!"
In my opinion there is no way yet to compare oracle to any other DBMS under any point of view.

Delete oracle database

how to delete oracle database from OEM?
regards
wire

You can't delete the database from OEM.
You can do it either manually or using DBCA (database configuration assistant) utility supplied by oracle.
I believe 10g has drop database command.

Copy Oracle Database /Software

I have an Production IBM AIX server that has our Oracle 8.1 database on it. Then I have a different test environment IBM AIX server. Is there a way to copy the Oracle database from the production to my the test environment?
Thanks in advance

Hello
Yes, there is a way.
I suppose You install oracle software in test environment.
Create a cold or hot backup (or rman) from production DB. Copy all related files - $ORACLE_BASE/admin/<YOUR SID> to test server.
If DB files' path the same as production then You can start DB, if not, You must change filename with alter database rename file 'old path' to 'new path'; in mount mode.
Do not remember from password file.

Download Oracle Database Software

Hello,
Can anyone please tell me the path for download the Oracle 10g Database Software from SAP support portal?
From the Downloads-->Database Patches I've downloaded the PatchSets for Oracle 10.2.0.2
But where can I found the 10g DB SW.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
Ruzica

Hi Ruzica,
It was discussed at this thread:
Upgrading from Oracle 9.2.0.6 to Oracle 10.2
But, in summary: Yes, you must upgrade the Oracle Client (to 9.2.0.7 or 9.2.0.8) before the DB Upgrade, and during the Upgrade you are asked to install Oracle Instant Client 10.
Regards,
JC Llanes.

Oracle database software

can oracle11g server 64byte and oracle11g client 32byte run on the same machine?

Yes, they can run on same machine, especially true since 11gR2 64bit server installation is not coming within 32bit librairies anymore, if it is needed for some application layer, then the 32bit client can be installed onto the same machine, in a separate ORACLE_HOME :
"+Starting with Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2), the 64-bit client software does not contain any 32-bit client binaries. If you require 32-bit client binaries on 64-bit platforms, then install the 32-bit binaries from the respective 32-bit client software.+"

Deleting Oracle Database.

Hi
Current Enviroment : Oracle 10g/ Windows 2003 Server.
On one of our Prod Server, in addition to the Prod Database that we have another database that we would like to delete.
Can anyone suggest me whats the best method of doing this.
1) Delete the database using DBCA
or
2) Delete the instance using ORADIM command and then delete all the respective files of this other database.
If both the methods are just the same, i would like to go with Method -2 , seems to be safer keepin in mind that we have a Prod DB on this box.
Please suggest me on this issue.
Thanks
Vamshee

If you can, use DBCA, under windows, it also delete service

Oracle Universal Installer Error when Installing Oracle database Software

Hi Guru's
we are installing SAP ECC 6.0 on Linux:Oracle, we start the installation fine until we reach the oracle software installation step. we login as ora<sid> then set the DISPLAY variable setenv DISPLAY 192.168.1.155:0.0
The csh shell is the one that is being used we find this after executing echo $SHELL, when we execute echo $DISPLAY it returns 192.168.1.155:0.0.
When we run ./RUNINSTALLER it then returns Failed the DISPLAY variable is not set correctly, to check if it working execute xclock, we run that and it displays the clock.
what could be the problem with this installation.

I am trying to install Oracle 10g on Suse Linux and I am getting the
following error...
Checking monitor: must be configured to display atleast 256
colors Failed <<<< >>>> could not execute auto check for display colors
using command /usr/X11R6/bin/xdpyinfo check if DISPLAY variable is set.
I checked the DISPLAY variable and it is set right.

Oracle database software on Intel based Solaris

Hi all,
Any idea regarding Oracle 8i/9i software on Intel based Solaris.
Can I use Oracle 8i Sparc Software for Intel based Solaris?
Thanks

HI Kandi,
Apparently due to a lack of demand, Oracle software on Solaris Intel is being phased out. Unfortunately, you can't use Solaris Sparc releases on Intel platforms.

Upgrade from Oracle Database 11.2.0.1 to 11.2.0.3

Hi,
I have Oracle ASM 11.2.0.1, Oracle RAC 11.2.0.1 and Oracle Database 11.2.0.1. I have two nodes.
I would upgrade Oracle Database to 11.2.0.3 mantaining the 11.2.0.1 version for ASM and RAC.
Is it possible?
Where can I get a guide?
Thanks

+"mantaining the 11.2.0.1 version for ASM and RAC"+
You mean +"mantaining the 11.2.0.1 version for ASM and Clusterware"+ , because RAC is the Software of Oracle Database in Clustered env. (i.e Oracle Database Software over Cluster is called RAC)
The release of Oracle Clusterware that you use must be equal to or higher than the Oracle ASM and Oracle RAC versions that are running in the cluster. You cannot install a version of Oracle RAC that was released after the version of Oracle Clusterware that you run on the cluster.
See detail Oracle Clusterware Version Compatibility:

Free version of oracle database.

Hi everbody,
Can anybody tell if there is a free version of Oracle database which can be used for training purpose.
This software is required for the hands on purpose for the associates.
Moreover, it would be kind enough of you to suggest that which is the most suitable version for installing on CentOS 6.3 64 bit ?
Thanks in advance for your assistance.

What is the purpose/content of the training ? For self-learning purposes, all of the database versions available at Oracle Downloads | Software | Oracle are "free". Currently, no Oracle database software is certified/supported on CentOS, although folks have managed to install it on this OS, with the assumption that they will have to troubleshoot any issues on their own. Again, for self-learning purposes, Oracle Linux is freely available at https://linux.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=101:3
