please guid me how i willl be able to creat it.
2nd poing how to create asm instance on RAC11gR1. is it need to install saparate home like 10g for that or i can create from 11g software home.
thanks,
sher khan

thanks for the update ,
dear oracle 11g rac recomends to create ocr and voting disk on asm.
i followed the documents they are saying you have to install grid control infrastructure and than need to create asmcfs.(automatic storage management cluster file system.).
how to create asmcfs to avoid the gridcontrol, if its must is it need to install on one node or both nodes.
can you plz guide me how to do this .

Install and uninstall of Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 2008 Server

Hi,
I installed Oracle 11g R2 and set up a database on Windows 2008 Server following the steps in the Installation Guide and it was successful. After uninstalling the product and doing a re-install, the step to configure the Net Configuration Assistant fails with the following msg.
Failed to allocate port(s) in the specified range(s) for the following process(es): JMS
[5540-5559], RMI [5520-5539], Database Control [5500-5519], EM Agent [3938] | [1830-1849]
Also, when I ran "netca.bat" and tried to reconfigure the Listener, it indicated the default port 1521 is being used. I ran "netstat -an" and do not see the port listed.
Questions:
What is the best way to check if something was leftover from my previous install of Oracle that is using the default ports?
What do I need to do to ensure a re-install is successful?
Uninstalling Oracle -
1.     Log in as the Administrator.
2.     Stop all Oracle Services.
3.     From a cmd window, run C:\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\deinstall\deinstall.bat.
4.     Delete the C:\app\oracle directory.
5.     Remove the following registry entries as per http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/relnotes.112/e16777/toc.htm:
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application\Oracle Services for MTS

Johan, after I uninstalled Oracle, I checked to ensure there were no remaining Oracle services remaining.
Srini, below are the steps I followed to uninstall Oracle. In step 3, I just ran deinstall.bat without any parameters and provided required information as prompted. Note, I uninstalled using the Administrator user and not the "oracle" account that I used to install Oracle.

How to develop a plugin for 64-bit windows 2008 server?

I have developed a plugin to open local application from web pages, but the plugin could only run on 32-bit windows and 32-bit and 64-bit windows 7, it couldn't work on 64-bit windows 2008 server.

Hi Gnittala,
Thanks for your reply.
I debug the javascript code in firebug on windows 8 and found that firefox would be not responding while executing "document.body.append(myPlugin)".
My javascript code is below:
function openLocalApp(cmdPath, cmdLine) {
var npMyPlugin = navigator.mimeTypes["application/mozilla-npruntime-scriptable-plugin"];
if (npMyPlugin) {
var myPlugin = document.createElement("embed");
myPlugin.style.visibility = "hidden";
myPlugin.type = "application/mozilla-npruntime-scriptable-plugin";
myPlugin.width = 0;
myPlugin.height = 0;
document.body.appendChild(myPlugin);
myPlugin.foo(cmdPath, cmdLine);
} else {
alert("Failed to create the plugin!");
And firefox plugin's source code copys from the following link:
http://mxr.mozilla.org/seamonkey/source/modules/plugin/samples/npruntime/
Just changed a little.
I know the sample is very old, but newer proper sample couldn't be found. So if you can give me a newer sample, I'll appreciate.
Thanks again.

Hi,
Is this implementation to production environment?
Be aware:
Is Oracle RAC on VMware supported? No, we do not support Oracle Software including Oracle RAC on VMWare.
Aside from the support restrictions for the database on VMWare outlined in Metalink Note 249212.1, there are technical restrictions that prevent the certification of Oracle RAC in a VMWare environment.

Requeriments OS for installation Oracle 11g RAC in Windows 2003

I plan to install Oracle 11g Standard with RAC in Windows 2003 Server.
I will use 2 nodes with the same OS.
I will use a SAN with fibre channel, to store the DB.
It is possible to install Oracle RAC in W2003 Standard ?
I need obligatory W2003 Enterprise?
The cluster of the 2 nodes is made by OS or by Oracle Clusterware?
Thanks in advance.

You can install on Windows 2003 Standard, it works with this OS. On the other hand the cluster is configured by the oracle clusterware. You need to make absolutely sure you are able to write from both nodes to the shared storage. Specific details on the regedit parameters you have to configure and specific OS issues are detailed at the above reference Werner posted.

Install Forms 11g FM on Windows 2008 64 bit

Has anyone been able to install FM 11g (Forms etc) on Windows 2008 Server 64 bit.
Every time I attempt an install I get the OUI checking for swap space and monitor configuration. After that the OUI goes away and nothing else happens.
The entries in the installactions file is below.
Using paramFile: D:\Install\Disk1\install\win64\oraparam.ini
Checking swap space: must be greater than 500 MB. Actual 7154 MB Passed
Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. Actual 65536 Passed
The commandline for unzip:
D:\Install\Disk1\install\win64\unzip -qqqo ..\..\stage\Components\oracle.jdk\6.0.10.33.0\1\DataFiles/"*.jar" -d "C:\Users\S-OTG~1.MAT\AppData\Local\Temp\2\OraInstall2009-09-22_08-56-31AM"
I have installed the WLS using the 64 bit version of JRockit with no problems.

I reviewed your SR and wanted to clarify a few things. In the SR, you were not exactly told that installing (in general) was not supported on Win2008(x64). You were simply told that you could not use the 32bit download on a 64bit machine or install the Builders on x64. If you were told something else in a call I apologize as that information may have not been correct. Additionally, the SR is very confusing because you go from talking about Win2008 to XP to 2003 back to 2008 and so on. This is a very difficult way to troubleshoot. Dealing with one problem at a time will almost always result in the fastest resolution time. That said, here are the facts based on the platforms you mentioned in the SR.
1. Windows 2008 (64bit): This platform is intended for deployment (server). Although it may be possible to install the Forms/Reports Builders on this platform, Oracle is currently not supporting the Builders on any 64bit platform. Plans to support 64bit Operating Systems for Builders is still under review. So, for now, you must use the 64bit download to install on a 64bit platform. If you choose to attempt the installation of the Builders on this platform, you do it at your own risk.
2. Windows XP and Vista (32bit): These platforms are generally considered "client" platforms. These platforms are supported for using Builders. Technically they are not supported to be used as servers. Therefore, HTTP Server and Web Cache are not supported on these platforms. More details are explained in the Release Notes:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/relnotes.1111/e10132/intro.htm#sthref8
3. Windows 2003 (32bit): This platform can be used with both the deployment components and the design-time components. That said, being a 32bit platform, I would not recommend trying to run a prod system and attempt to develop on it as well. Certainly, doing application maintenance on this machine would be fine, but if you were running a prod environment here, I would not suggest running the Builders full time too. 4gig of RAM or more would definitely be needed. See the following:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/283037
Now, the actual problems you had/have:
Configuration failing when installing on Win2008 (64) - Looking at the SR, this appears to have been the result of trying to use the 32bit installation on the 64bit box. Upon initial release of the product, 64bit Windows distributions were not available. However, they are now and must be used on 64bit Windows 2008 and 2003 platforms. Refer to the OTN Download area.
Also seen in the error log was a connection issue. This is often caused as a result of several things, but the most common causes are WLS (node manager) is not running or the machine is under powered (usually lack of RAM). Regardless of what is documented, experience shows that a Windows machine will need to have at least 3.5 gig of RAM in order to support the installation process. This assumes that nothing else is running during the installation process unless it is absolutely needed. It seems that 4gig or more offers the most likely chance of a successfull installation on the first attempt.
Regarding the error which suggests that a given service already exists. This could likely happen if you attempted an installation, but it failed then you attempted to re-run the installation without first doing a thorough clean-up.
On the XP installation it appears that there was some memory issues. From the log: java.lang.OutOfMemoryError. As I mentioned, for the most likely chance of success, the machine should have at least 3.5 gig of RAM. If you are just installing the Builders you can have less, but if the config portion fails, you will probably see the connection failure seen in your other attempts. When/if this failure occurs, do not exit or do anything with the installer. Allow a minute or two (or more) for the new instance to completely start then select the Retry option. You will likely find that the configuration will complete successfully.
Also, important for any installation type.... When installing WLS, UNcheck the Launch Quick Start option that appears near the end of the WLS installation. Running this creates a default or demo instance. Unless you are planning to use this example instance, leaving it out can give back as much as 500 meg RAM in some cases. If you have already installed it and don't want to reinstall, stop whatever processes start as a result of that example instance.
SUMMARY
1. Be sure you are installing the correct software for your platform type. 64bit software for 64bit OS
2. On Windows, ensure that you have either installed the Loopback adapter or added your host name to the hosts file. Refer to Section 2.3:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/install.1111/e10421/install.htm#CHDEAAGD
3. Ensure that the machine has at least 3.5 gig RAM. For systems with less, expect to see failures during the configuration portion of the install. Use "Retry" to overcome this.
4. Builders are only supported on 32bit platforms at this time:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E12839_01/relnotes.1111/e10132/intro.htm#sthref8
5. Ensure that WLS node manager is running before installing FMw
I don't think I missed anything, but just be sure to review the Installation Guide AND the Release Notes.

Windows 2008 Server crashed - How to find location of remote shared files that they used to access on remote web app?

We have a client that was running windows 2008 server. A previous IT person had setup their system, so we were walking into a situation where there were many unknowns. Server was mainly handling emails only, and we were able to get their exchange
database off and export PSTs to hosted exchange via microsoft.
Everything went fine with that, however one user said that he used to access files on the server via the remote web app as he described. He would go to the following url:
https://mail.theirdomain.com/remote/menu.aspx#
and he would use his login and then he would see several links to folders. He could then click on those and see his desired files.
We were able to get the server booted again, however we could not find any of the files he described on it at all, leaving me to suspect that perhaps this remote link was accessing another PC.
We have the old server up and running, however the link above is no longer active because we have pointed the domain to the new hosted exchange server. As I am still learning and my boss wanted me to research this on my own and figure out how to find
out where these files are located. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Just as a note I did try access mail.localhost.com/remote/menu.aspx# on the server but this did not work. Is there any way in the IIS 7 management console to figure out where this was pointing to?

I figured it out - The server was using sharepoint to host these files. I browsed localhost:987 and opened the sharepoint site locally on the server. They had several documents to be exported, however when clicking on Open in Explorer it was
giving an error that local client was not configured. I installed Desktop Experience and after that was able to open it in Windows Explorer and copy all files off.
