How to install Essbase on your laptop from the Oracle Download site

Hello everyone,
I am attempting to install the download version of Essbase on my laptop from the Oracle site. I have downloaded the following Essbase-11113 part 1, Essbase-11113 part 2, and APS-11113 part 3. However I am at a loss as to what to do next. I didn't see any executible files in the downloads all I see are xml documents and .dat files so I am completely lost as to how to install the system and get a working copy of Essbase running. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.
thanks,
EC

I too have it installed on a VM -- Windows 2003 -- and it's a 32 bit OS. If you do want to move it to your real desktop, you'll need a bunch of directories and environment variables from your successful 32 bit install to make it work, even for the client. I think XP should be okay for just Essbase and maybe EAS. You can always install Excel on the VM as well and just keep it entirely self-contained.
SmartView on 64 bit, if you're using Excel 2007, is a non starter; it does work with Excel 2003 and I think it's slated for a fix in 11.1.2.
If you're as hopeless as I am when it comes to installations, make sure you take plenty of snapshots so you can roll back to the last working instance. I did the whole stack on my VM, so I had lots of things to get wrong.
I think those who know what they're doing when it comes to installs don't see it as a challenge -- I'm a developer, not an installer, so I found it it be be gruesome (the full stack, 64 bit Essbase on the real iron).
Good luck.
Regards,
Cameron Lackpour
P.S. Just to show that when it's all certified, it works, I was able to install AppliedOLAP's client (okay, Tim was watching over my shoulder, but still) on my Vista 64 bit without any trouble whatsoever. It worked like a charm.

  • How to install/compile broadcom-wl driver from the install cd?

    Hi there,
    Problem: I cannot proceed the installation of Arch by lack of internet connection. I have a MBPr that has a Broadcom 4360 wireless card. After a little research I found that this requires the broadcom-wl driver. However, the wl driver is not on the install CD by default (at least, it didn't show up with "find / -iname '*wl*o'"). I figured that downloading and installing the driver from the AUR possibly solves the problem. I suppose I need to install the DKMS from https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/broadcom-wl-dkms/.
    Since I'm new to Arch I have not the slightest idea how the AUR repository works and how to hack it all together with the install CD. I have the possibility to download stuff to a USB drive and mount it during the installation process.
    Some help, refs, ideas are much appreciated.

    Thanks. Tried it out in a virtual environment but some questions remain.
    - How do I get base-devel and all it's dependencies easily imported from a USB to Pacman?
    - How do I get Pacman's databases installed, without upgrading (as pacman -Syu does) and without internet? I need to install the linux-headers from the same version as the LiveCD kernel.

  • Why is the public Flash Player download version different from the SDLA download site?

    Since last month, FP 11.1.102.55 has been available for the public to download and install. But the http://www.adobe.com/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html still has 11.0.1.152.
    What gives?

    All downloads at http://www.adobe.com/special/products/flashplayer/fp_distribution3.html are 11.1.102.55
    Maybe you have a cache somewhere from where you still obtain an old cached version?

    Hi
    I am using OS 10.6.8 and just installing logic pro 9. I am downloading the extra 20gig of material - the additional content packages. I am installing Logic on my laptop as well and dont want to download the extra 20 gig again. How do i go about transferring it from the computer to the laptop?
    Thanks

    And now a second newbie question. I have downloaded the additional content and booted up logic for the first time, but the apple loops have not installed and logic is asking me to reinstall the apple loops. But how do I do that? I can see they are in the libray so have downloaded.

  • How to install third party plug-ins from photoshop elements 11 to new 13 in my PC win7?

    how to install third party plug-ins from photoshop elements 11 to new 13 in my PC win7?
    Thank you.

    Hi ,
    Your windows is 32 bit or 64 bit .
    If win 7 32 bit
    Just copy the plugin from PSE 11 and paste it to PSE 13 plug-in folder.
    If win 7 64
    PSE 11 and PSE 13 are installed as a 32 and 64 bit respectively , so you need to install plug-in again.
    Thanks,

  • How do I re-install Adobe Photohop Elements 8 from the original diskette?

    How do I re-install Adoboe Photoshop Elements 8 from the original diskette.  All the diskette wants to do is to uninstall the program.  [If I did this would I lose all my photos?]
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    <Removed by Moderator>

    no, you won't lose your photos.  but you might want to prepare your catalog for migration, http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/backup-restore-move-catalog-photoshop.html
    and if you follow all 7 steps you can directly download a trial here:  http://prodesigntools.com/direct-download-links-for-lightroom-3-and-photoshop-elements-8.h tml
    and activate with your serial number.
    if you have a problem starting the download, you didn't follow all 7 steps, or your browser does not accept cookies. 
    the most common problem is caused by failing to meticulously follow steps 1,2 and/or 3 (which adds a cookie to your system enabling you to download the correct version from adobe.com). 
    failure to obtain that cookie results in an error page being displayed after clicking a link on prodesigntools.com or initiates the download of an incorrect (eg, current) version.

  • HT1386 How do you sync your itunes from the Iphone to the macbook pro?

    How do you sync your itunes from the iphone to the macbook pro? 
    Let's say, I have an Iphone 3GS and it was synced to my older pc (I know...) and it crashed and I can't retrieve my files on there.  I want everything that I have on my 3Gs: photos, videos, music, notes, voice recordings, etc...  Now, I recently upgraded to 4Gs.  I can sync almost everything via icloud but there are files like photos, videos, other music that I cannot sync or for some weird reason it won't work over the cloud.  So I want to move all of those information to my macbook pro (upgraded from pc... yes!).  How do I move everything in my iphone backed up to my itunes in my mac book so that I can sync it to my new 4Gs? 

    I have a 3GS IPhone and have not been able to find Cloud on it anywhere (I was instructed to go to Settings, General, etc). I have also been told I should download update from I Tunes and have not been successful doing that either. I know my I Pad has the Cloud and I am wanting to sync the calendar from the phone to the pad. Any suggestions?

    My usb confirmed bootable! I created it with bootcamp, and tested it on a different macbook and it works. But doesn't work on MacBook Air. (Even startup disk doesn't detect it as bootable in Air)
    anyone else has a real solution to this problem?
    Thousands have successfully tried it themselves and installed Windows on a Macbook Air. Perhaps if you provided some details about what you did and what errors you observed we could help you. The Boot Camp instaructions, if followed, will produce a successful install.

  • How to restore my backup in laptop from external drive

    How to restore my backup in my macbookpro from external drive

    Hello Jayrajjpatel,
    It sounds like you have a Time Machine backup on an external drive that you would like to use to restore your computer. The following article will help you get that done, named:
    OS X Mavericks: Recover your entire system
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14185
    If you’re restoring your system because of a problem with your startup disk, repair or replace the disk before following these instructions.
    Make sure your Time Machine backup disk is connected and turned on. If your disk is on a network, make sure your Mac is on the same network.
    Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
    Select “Restore from a Time Machine Backup,” then click Continue.
    Do one of the following:
    External backup disk: Select it, then click Continue.
    Time Capsule: Choose your network from the AirPort menu on the right side of the menu bar, and then select your Time Capsule and click “Connect to Remote Disk.”
    Network backup disk: Select it, then click “Connect to Remote Disk.”
    If necessary, enter the name and password you use to connect to your backup disk, then click Connect.
    Select the date and time of the backup you want to restore, then follow the onscreen instructions.
    After you restore your system, Time Machine may perform a full backup at the next scheduled backup time. This is normal. Time Machine resumes incremental backups after the full backup is completed.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling
