How to Install Oralce 8i on Windows 7
please help me to install oracle8i in windows7.it is giving error not found jrew.exe

I too would like to know how to install Oracle 8i on Windows 7. Most of you responding seem to think that this is a "stupid" idea. I am trying to connect to a VAX 6630 running Oracle 7. My client is a billion $ top 10 Fortune 500 multi-national company that has been in business longer than Microsoft AND Oracle put together. The VAX 6630 has been running over 20 years and the disks have been spinning just as long. This is a lot better than Microsoft can do considering they can't even put together an operating system that works for more than a couple of years. Welcome to the REAL world, pal.
I am currently connecting to the VAX with Oracle 8i installed on Windows XP. Works great! So, putting aside all the snickering, can you answer the question or not? No time to laugh here. We have REAL world problems to solve.The VAX was a great machine with a great OS. I'm not surprised it is still humming along. Perhaps, from a pure business standpoint, this reliability is what led to the demise of DEC ... once you buy their equipment, there's little reason to spend more money with them. But all hardware fails eventually. Where do you get hardware support for this setup?
What do you do with your real world, Fortune 500 problem when you have to ask for help from Oracle? What is their response?

How to install SOA 10g on Windows 7 64-bit platform?

Hi Friends
How to install SOA 10g on Windows 7 64-bit platform ?
I've downloaded the 64-bit version downloadable from OTN and able to run the irca.bat on DB 10.2.0.3 however the SOA Installer fails at BPEL Config Assistant step with errors :

This is typically the result of an invalid deployer URI format being supplied, the target server not being in a started state or incorrect authentication details being supplied.

Hi,
We know now why SOA Installer fails...
Now we need to know why you can not start OC4J properly. What do you see in the log files?

How to Install or Run on Windows Xp/7

Hi, I just see the bin/kvctl for Linux.
How to Install o Run on Windows ?

The actual command to invoke kvlite is pretty simple. From the bottom of the kvlite script:
java $LOGGING -cp $LIBDIR/kvstore-1.1.100.jar oracle.kv.util.kvlite.KVLite -root $KVROOT -store $KVSTORE -host $HOSTNAME -port $REGPORT $ADMINPORT
Here is a .cmd file that you can use (it's not supported). Some of our developers run on Windows but it is not a supported platform since we don't run our qualification tests on it. It's Java code, so in theory, "it should just work".

How to install hyper-v on windows 8 ?

How to install hyper-v on windows 8 ?
I want to install virtual PC but after some research I came to know that windows 8 no longer support virtual pc and it has been replaced by something called hyper-v.
I just bought a Windows 8 laptop.
I tried looking into windows on / off features (in control panel) and there is NO hyper-V.
I know why I don't have hyper-V because after doing some research it seems like it is only available on windows 8 PRO.
Here is comparison chart:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Windows_8_editions#Comparison_chart
I have Widows 8 on my laptop (NOT Windows PRO).
Now in this situation, how to install hyper-v on my laptop ?
Also, will I be able to run windows 7 virtually on my windows 8 laptop using hyper-v just like virtual pc ? like switching in windows between OS ? If I cannot do this and hyper-v does not work like virtual PC then I don;t think hyper-v will be useful to
me at all and i don't wanna figure it out if it is not useful in any way ?

Hi jeffcarter,
To enable the Windows 8 Client Hyper-V feature, our computer needs to meet the following requirements:
1. Hardware supports Second Level Address Translation (SLAT)
2. 64-bit Windows 8 Pro or Enterprise.
3. 4 GB or above of RAM.
Therefore, it seems that your computer cannot install Hyper-V. Also, Windows Virtual PC cannot be run on Windows 8. Thanks for your understanding.
In addition, regarding how to configure your BIOS to enable Intel VT-X, you can refer to your motherboard’s operating manual or query the vendor support for help.
More information:

Bringing Hyper-V to “Windows 8”
Hope this helps.

How to install Solaris from a Windows computer

I have recently received the Solaris operating system on DVD. The only computer that I have that has a DVD player is my laptop. It is however connected to the desktop that I wold like to install the system onto by a switch. I am not sure how to go about installing solaris over the LAN onto the desktop. This is the current setup.
The desktop has Ubuntu with no direct connection to the internet. The Laptop has a wireless connection to the net with Internet connection sharing enabled. The two are connected via a switch and the laptop acts as a router to assign the ip address for the desktop. I would like to know how I can Install Solaris to the desktop over the network from the windows laptop.
Please help!
Thanks.

Yes it does. I did that before but I could never get the image to boot after recording it to cd.
Thanks for the reply by the way. I actually found some articles that I am reading through at:
http://docs.sun.com/app/docs/doc/817-5504/6mkv4nh3p?a=view
This seems to be going in the right direction. My next question I guess will be how to boot the client from the network. I am not sure how to map the boot procedure to the server. Any ideas are welcome.

How to Install Oracle 10g in Windows 7 Home premium 64bit operating system

Hi,
I am using Windows 7 Home premium 64bit operating system. While i was installing oracle 10g i got error and not able to install. How to install the Oracle 10g databse on this operating system. Is there any patch to install this or i have to use other version of oracle with window 7 operating system?
Thanks in advance
Mayank Adhikari

The argument would be who wants to install Oracle database on Windows 7. I think most probably by the developers who wants to "Try" something prior deal with a production database, right?
For a developer, installing database using the hack is more than NOT having a local database running from the local system. I installed all the products mentioned with windows7bugs post and used the following tools to successfully connect and retrive data from the database instances.
Toad 9.7.x.x
SQL Developer
SQL/Plus
Developer 6i (Another hack, please check this link http://windows7bugs.wordpress.com/2010/03/01/installing-oracle-developer-forms-reports-6i-on-windows-7-64bit/).
I think the discussion about whether all the features of client/server are still available with such a hacked installation is meaningless as far the information requested was strictly for Windows 7, not for a Server OS.

How to Install Oracle 11g on Windows Vista

Hi Everyone, this is Abhinay here i am a Graduate Student from Electronics and i am planning to shift to CS background the main thing i want to know from you guys is " A structured procedure of Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Vista"- So can any one of you guys help me out??????????

Hi, how are you doing ?
Just one advice about it. If you want to work with Oracle databases, it will be better to install it on certified OS's. Doing so, you will get better experience and more realistic experience on it.
Following the Oracle database documentation, you will get all that you need to successfully install the database in the certified OS.

After searching on Oracle Support, i come to know that patch p9499508 is required for this bug. I have downloaded the patch from oracle.
Now i don't know how to install/use this patch . I'm using windows and installed everything on my local machine.
Does anyone have idea on it??
Thanks,
Vinit

But don't understand how to follow below mentioned by you:-
Set the oracle_home where the patch will be installed.
Use the "lsinventory" argument of opatch
Use the "apply" argument of opatch

How to install oracle 9i on Windows XP

Could someone please tell me how to install orale 9i downloaded from oracle site on windows-xp for home. Could not find setup.exe file in any of the three downloaded files. I am new to oracle. Thanks for any lead or suggestions.

Unzipping gives you three disks worth, inside disk1 there should be a file 'setup.exe'.
If not you could try using a download manager like 'getright' to make sure you've "really" got what was posted (windows isn't so hot at getting it right) - getright is so good I paid for the shareware :-)
Hope that helps
Jason.
