How to install oracle database 11g express edition on Windows 7

Hi Guys,
i am trying to download and install Oracle database 11g express edition on windows7 and i can't seem to get it right. i did get the download but when i try to install, it keeps saying it appears to be an invalid archive.
Please help..

Action - Refer to the logs or contact OracleFinding the problem is the key. "Refer to the logs" is the only option, XE has no oracle support offerings.
Which plugin failed, and why did it fail will be important clues. There should be error messages in the log that will be helpful.
Otherwise, we don't have much help to offer. Fixing a problem means identifying the problem and performing steps to correct it, if there a fix is available.
A MOS lookup on the ins-20802 error has snippets from one installer session, this one is from an x64 install. Not x86. To paraphrase the details:
... Created a new file <drive>:<OH path>\cfgtoollogs\configToolAllCommands
SEVERE: java.io.IOException: Access is denied
...So from those symptoms, the user trying to run the installer does not have appropriate rights on that drive and/or folder. The fix for that particular problem is adding the user to the local administrators group. And rerunning the install. After running the deinstall steps to clean up the installation. As specified in the XE install guide for Windows.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm
Also note the System Requirements, it specifies a System architecture Intel x86, which is not X64. There is no X64 installer for XE on Windows. So it might work. Or it might not if your host is x64.
So if that is your particular error, verify that your user is in the local admins group. Either use the local users and groups applet (Start/Run/lusrmgr.msc) and open up the Administrators group. Click the Add button. Find your user. If your OS user is a windows domain user, be sure you have authenticated to the domain.
Try the `net ...` list of the adminis group, that should reveal whom is indeed in the local administrators group:
net localgroup administrators
Administrator
<domain>\Domain Admins ... # ??? is the host in windows domain ???
<domain>\Local Admins
<domain>\<user1>
<user2>
<user3>
echo %USERNAME%
# if relevant:
echo %USERDOMAIN%Like it also states in the Windows install guide, under Permission Required quote:
... must be a member of the Administrators group on Windows to install Oracle Database XE.

Problem in installing oracle database 11g express edition

while installing oracle database 11g express edition during product specific prerequisite check, checking for oracle XE service instance is failed, what to do ?

Hello, and welcome to the OTN forums,
the prerequisites are documented quite well. I'm not sure about the actual error message, but from what you write it sounds like you already have another Oracle XE install on your machine, possible the Oracle 10g XE. As mentioned in the Installation Guide, you may have only one instance per server, so the installer fails.
If that's not the reason, can you please post the exact error message you receive?

VSS for Oracle Database 11g Express Edition?

I use Veeam to backup our servers.
I have a Windows 2003 R2 Std edition. On it we have Oracle Database 11g Express Edition (upgraded from 10g).
I would like to enable application-aware image processing (VSS)
I do not have the Oracle VSS Writer Service installed, and the oravssw.exe is not in the oracle folder.
1. Does Oracle Database 11g Express Edition support/include Oracle VSS Writer?
2. If I get the oravssw.exe from another (not express) oracle database, can I copy it and use it on my 11g Express Edition to create the Oracle VSS Writer?
Thanks in advance

Thanks. So I guess I will have to use 10g XE on my 32 bit Linux
Its interesting 10g XE was for 64 bit and 11g XE is for 32 bit.The other way around. 10.2 is 32-bit and 11.2 is 64-bit. Seems like a logical or natural progression (haven't seen a 32-bit machine for some years now).

Error while opening Oracle Database 11g Express Edition after installation.

After finishing the installation of Oracle database 11g Express Edition, when I tried to open it, it shows following error : windows cannot find `http://127.0.0.1:%HTTPPORT%/apex/f?p=4950`.Make sure you typed the name coorectly, and then try again.

Oracle Database 11g Express Editionへの接続について

Oracle Database 11g Express Editionを自PCにインストールし、SQLPLUS等の接続
まで確認する事ができました。
その後、VB2008で開発を行っている事から、VB2008で接続しようと考えていますが、
どのような接続方法が最適なのでしょうか？？？
当然、最終的にはクライアント/サーバ型にしたいと考えている為、クライアントからの接続
も想定しています。
ODBCは避けたく、他に方法を探していたところ、ODP.NETで接続できると記載が
あった為、同自ＰＣにインストールし、接続を行おうと記述したところ下記のようなエラー
となってしまいます。
《記述内容》
　'Connectionオブジェクトの生成
　Dim cnn As New OracleConnection
　Dim Command As OracleCommand
'Oracleへのコネクションの確立
cnn.ConnectionString = _
"User Id=ABCD; Password=000000; Data Source=XE"
cnn.Open()
Command = cnn.CreateCommand
'SQL初期化
Command.CommandText = ""
'データリーダーにデータ取得
Command.CommandText = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM T_東京"
《エラー内容》
　ORA-12154: TNS: 指定された接続識別子を解決できませんでした
”tnsping XE”は確認しており、問題なくとおります。
そもそも私の考え方が間違っていて、ODP.NETは使用できない？？？
記述の方法が間違っている？？？
初歩的な質問で申し訳ありませんが、教えて頂きたいと思います。
よろしくお願いします。

.netアプリを作成しているならばODP.netでの接続がベストだと思います。
ORA-12154が発生するのは参照しようとしているtnsnames.oraの中に"XE"という接続定義が見つからないためと思われます。
tnspingでは問題なく疎通できる＋ODP.netを追加インストールしたとのことから
odp.netをインストールしたORACLE_HOME配下のtnsnames.oraにXEという定義がないのだと思います。
(XEのORACLE_HOME配下のtnsnames.oraにのみXEの定義がされている)
ちなみに、tnsnames.oraは以下にあります。
%ORACLE_HOME%\NETWORK\admin\tnsnames.ora
そもそも私の考え方が間違っていて、ODP.NETは使用できない？？？
ORA-12154が発生するところまで進んでいるのでODP.net自体は使用できています。
ODP.net自体が使用できない状態だと OracleConnectionオブジェクトの生成の時点でエラーになるはずなので。
あと、tnsnames.oraを参照しないで接続できる簡易接続ネーミングという記載方法もあります。
例)
Data Source=localhost:1521/XE

Can't succesfully install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition on Ubuntu

Hi,
I've been trying to install Oracle Database 10g xe on Ubuntu 10.04 and when I execute the .deb package (oracle-xe-universal_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb) I get a quick installation that doesn't ask me for any configuration settings. When the installation is finished I don't get any menu in my Applications menu named "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition" as specified in Getting Started Guide (I only get some items grouped into an category called "Other" (Backup Database, Get Started, Get Started With Oracle Database 10g Express Edition, Go To Online Forum, Read Documentation, Read Online Help, Register For Online Forum, Restore Database, Run SQL Command Line, Start Database and Stop Database). As a consequence I can't access the Oracle Database Home Page.
In addition when I click on Start Database I get the following message: "Operation failed. josep is not member of 'dba' group".
I've tried to re-download the packages and to configure it by editing /etc/init.d/oracle-xe but this doesn't solve my problem.
can you give me some help?
Thabk you in advance!

Running oracle database xe (express edition) on windows server 2008 r2

Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?
Database XE is only supported as 32-bit. Current builds of Windows Server 2008 only come in x64 configurations.
Here are the Database XE system requirements for windows:
[http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm]
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).
See:
- [Wikipedia page about windows server 2008 with info on R2|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_Server_2008#Windows_Server_2008_R2]
- [Wikipedia page on "windows 32-bit on windows 64-bit"|http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WOW64]
Thanks,
Matt

Hello Matt,
Is it supported to run Oracle Database XE on Windows Server 2008 R2?No.
The docs say that 32-bit windows is required, yet they also say that windows server 2008 is supported.So this means that only 32bit versions of 2008 will be supported.
Windows Server 2008 R2 came out in 2009, and in R2 they eliminated 32-bit OS (though there is the WOW64 subsystem to run 32-bit programs within the 64-bit OS).Which is probably why 2008 R2 is not supported.
You can either take the VM approach and install a 32 bit Windows or 64 bit Linux host, or you can queue in the list of persons waiting for a 64 bit Windows release. See the following thread for details (and the queue) for the latter: {thread:id=2277728}

I cant install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

i download oracle 10g but i can't istall it.appears a message :"the install cannot proceed as service OracleServiseXE is present on the system.Remove the service ,reboot the system and retry the installation.my computer has Intel Core 2 Duo CPU T7500 2.20 GHz 2 GB and Windows XP Dark Edition V.7.please tell me what i can do...thank you!!

Hello,
the install cannot proceed as service OracleServiseXE is present on the systemOracle 10g XE can be installed just once.
If you have already tried to install it before, you should uninstall completely 10g XE and, clean the Registry if not yet done
from any 10g XE entry.
Then, you could install it. On Windows XP it works.
Hope this help.
Best regards,

Installing Oracle Database 10g Express Edition.

Hopefully someone can help.
The standard method of deploying this unattended (i.e. pass the setup.iss via the setup.exe) isn't good enough for my purposes. As it is a vendor MSI (wrapped in an executable), I'd like to be able to run it with a transform (I want to remove some shortcuts and do a few other things that you can't do via the setup.iss).
I've tried using /V to pass the transform via the setup.exe, but this doesn't work. Basically I want to know:
a.) if there is any way to pass a transform via the setup.exe to an InstallScript MSI?
b.) and this would be the ideal solution - a way to bypass the setup.exe completely and pass the setup.iss direct to the extracted MSI file itself?

I would far rather Oracle provided an MSI installation that was customizable and didn't rely on .iss files and hardcode paths for an unattended installation!
I've found out option (b) is not an option. All the dialogs are contained within the setup.exe and so the Setup.iss containing the dialog responses can't be used without it.
So is there any way to actually pass a transform via the setup.exe?

Hyperion errors after installing Oracle Database 11G

Hello,
The company I work for has a bunch of Oracle databases available, two which I connect to (use to connect to). I have multiple applications that I use to connect to these databases, Hyperion Interactive Reporting Studio 9.3.1 being one of them. I'm using Windows XP as my client.
I made the mistake of installing Oracle Database 11G Express Edition and now I cannot connect to any of the database using my applications, but I can connect to the same databases using SQL Developer. When I try connectiing using Hyperion, I get "SQL NATIVE ERROR [12504] SQL MESSAGE [[INTERSOLV][ODBC ORACLE 8 DRIVER][ORACLE 8][ORA-12504; TNS LISTERNER WAS NOT GIVEN THE SERVICE_NAME IN CONNECT DATA".
When connectiing using other company applications, which use the same database, i get "IM006: [INTERSOLV][ODBC ORACLE 8 DRIVER] DRIVERS SQLSETCONNECTATTRFAILED. UNABLE TO CONNECT TO DATABASE. CHECK USER NAME AND PASSWORD AND TRY AGAIN"
I'm assuming that I updated a driver or registry setting and I need to know how to reverse . I also copied a tnsnames and listerner from an associates computer and placed it in the same location on my computer, but this has not helped at all, even after rebooting the computer.
I even double checked and logged onto anothe computer and I can connect to the database using these same applications, so I definetly messed something up locally on my computer.
Any help is appreciated. Joe.

Probably you could solve odbc driver issues by removing the PATH entry from XE installation.
It looks something like:
Path=C:\oracle\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin;<remaining paths>
In system variabels settings, edit PATH to remove the "oraclexe" path and semicolon, leaving only <remaining paths>.
However, removing it will likely have an affect on XE usage. But that may be preferred over other apps working.
