Install 32-bit Oracle on a 64-bit OS

Hi,
for some reason,i have to install 32-bit oracle on a SUN X4450.As you know ,it's X86 and OS on it is solaris 10 for soalris X86. Both the CPU and OS are 64-bit.
All i want to know is that if there are some limits on server's RAM,such as RAM can't over 16GB

Hi,
All i want to know is that if there are some limits on server's RAM,such as RAM can't over 16GBSun server X4450 supports RAM upto 256 Gb

Windows 7 64 bit, Access 2010 32 bit, Oracle 10G client 32 bit, Oracle database 10.2.0.4 64 bit

I am trying to connect to an Oracle 10.2.0.4 database from Windows 7 OS - 64 bit using
Access 2010 32 bit and Oracle 32 bit client version 10.2.0.1 installed on PC.
My user requires a 64 bit Windows 7 OS for other needs.
Oracle ODBC driver is 32 bit from Oracle 32 bit client.
In Windows 7 OS 64 bit, ODBC DSN setup software is located in:
C:\Windows\system32\odbcad32.exe for 64 bit drivers - all DSN types setup and
C:\Windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe for 32 bit drivers - USER DSN setup
When I run the ODBC Data Source Administrator, I see the Version number is 6.1.7601.17632
I setup a User DSN using the 32 bit odbcad32.exe with a 32 bit ODBC driver.
Our Oracle TNSnames.ora file has our standard entries which have worked for years
(Windows 7 OS 32 bit and everything 32 bit has connected for years too)
So when I configure an ODBC User DSN and leave all the default settings and press the TEST Connection button, it says it works.
But when I open the existng Access 2010 database (which does connect to Oracle in a Windows 7 32 bit PC environment),
1. I go to Access External Data ribbon tab / Link to the Data Source by creating a linked table / press OK
2. I select the Machine Data source = to the USER DSN name / press OK
3. The Oracle ODBC Driver Connect Window opens with Service Name = USER DSN and User Name and it wants a Password
4. I enter the correct password and I get the following error message:
ODBC call failed
[Oracle][ODBC]{Ora]ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified
(#12154) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed IM006 0
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0)
I have tried a quite a number of fixes:
I have gone into the PC registry and cleaned out most or all off the Oracle client keys and
reinstalled the Oracle 32 bit 10g client. It didn't fix the error.
I read about the Oracle instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.4.zip with ODBC modules but I have Windows 7 64 bit.
Anyone experienced a problem like this and have a fix?

Thank you for your reply.
I did not get to try it because after I entered my question, I did a lot more internet Googling.
I found this small comment:
“There's a known issue where you get a 12154 error message running 32 bit software on a 64 bit OS using client 10201, and
It should be resolved by patching the client to 10204, which you do by applying the 10204 database patch to it.”
I searched around for the 10.2.0.4 patch for 10.2.0.1 Oracle 32 bit client.
When I contacted my Oracle DBA to ask if he had that patch, he said that I should try the 11g 32 bit client on the Win 7 64 bit PC.
We have a 10.2.0.4 Oracle database but he said the 11g client should work fine.
I tried it and it solved the problem!
With so many settings, configurations and permissions involved in ODBC, I am inclined to think that I missed a setting but
it was a bug in the 32 bit client 10.2.0.1.
Solved.

64 bit oracle client VS 32 bit oracle database

if I have 64 bit oracle client installed in a windows host.., can I connect to a 32 bit oracle database?
I thnk yes, right?
thank you

Just curious - How difficult would it be for you to check?

Trouble connecting to 64 bit oracle client from 32 bit environment

Hi,
I have an application which connects to Oracle and an external 3ed party application via a set of APIs. We are now facing the issue while migrating our server from 2003 to 2008.
The 2003 server was configured for 32 bit and had 32 bit Oralce installed on it. It was able to connect to both Oracle and the 3ed party API in this configuration
In our New 2008 server we have installed a 64 bit Oracle however the 3ed party API is using is 32 bit. Once we use the 64 bit app poll we were able to connect to the Oracle, but the API connection fails. When we enable the 32 bit in APP Pool, wer cant connect to the Oracle client.
Could you please suggest a possible soultion for this problem?
PS:
We have tried placing the 32 bit Oracle.Data.Client DLL in the Bin folder and refered it in our project ( to avoid refering the 64 bit DLL from GAC) but this method didint work out.
We have alos tried placing Oracle Data Access Componets DLLs in Our bin as explianed in the following blog post
http://researchaholic.com/2011/10/21/connect-from-net-to-oracle-without-installing-the-oracle-client/
This also did not help us connect to the Oracle client.
Right now we have configured our new 2008 server with 64 bit oralcle client and enabled 32 bit support from APP pool.
Thanks

You can't use 64 bit client on 32 bit machine.
You can use 32 bit client on 64 bit machine via syswow64, but not the other way around.
If you compile your app with AnyCPU compile target though, it will automatically run as 32 bit on 32 bit OS, and 64 bit on 64 bit OS.

Installing JDK6u2532bits on Oracle Linux v6 64 bits

Hello,
I am having some dependency issues when trying to install JKD32bits on OEL 6 64 bits.

glibc-2.3.2-27.9.7.i686.rpm
When trying to install glibc-2.3.2-27.9.7.i686.rpm I get this error:

Will yum install the right dependencies? The server is not connected to internet so I would have to use the DVD as the source of packages.
Any comments?

Thanks for you reply. It actually helped to get this sorted out.
I managed to install the 32bt HotSpot in OLE64, doing the following steps:
1) Downloaded glibc-2.12-1.7.el6.i686.rpm (from http://public-yum.oracle.com/repo/OracleLinux/OL6/0/base/i386/glibc-2.12-1.7.el6.i686.rpm)

Then run the following:
$ rpm -i glibc-2.12-1.7.el6.i686.rpm libfreebl3-3.12.9-4.3.i586.rpmTo install both at the same time.
Then:
$ sh jdk-6u25-linux-i586.binAnd it did it!:

64-bit vs 32-bit Oracle on Win2003

Background:
Ive been tasked to come up with the appropriate hardware/software solution for my company, an MMOLG (Massively Multiple On-Line Gaming) enterprise as it gets ramped up for two huge game releases. We use My SQL (4.x) for managing the Web Front-end, MS SQL 2000 Servers to manage the games, and Oracle to manage the billing application on the back-end. The billing application is also used for authentication (registration of new subscribers, credit card validations) and authorization (what games each subscriber can play, is their account up to date, etc.). We currently support our billing application using 32-bit Oracle (9.2.0.4) on 32-bit, clustered Win2k, using Failsafe (3.3.2) on MSCS (1.0). We have the first new game-to-be-released in Beta, and, to date, I have a similar setup except that the Oracle is 9.2.0.6, Failsafe is 3.3.3, and MSCS is 1.1. Originally, I was given to understand that each of the two new games were to be on separate Oracle instances, but now my management wants both games to be run from the same instance. Our Marketing team spit out the anticipated subscriber/subscription #s recently, and the size of the #s has given me pause I question whether or not our current system will be able to handle the # of logins (for authorization and authentication) during the so-called land-rush (the games 1st week/month of release) and that period of time immediately following an upgrade to the game (where huge #s of gamers rush to get back to playing). I also need to consider the peak # of logins during the heaviest play period times. The minimum # of gamer logins/hour I need to account for is 5-7k/hour, and the high end could be upwards of 30-45k/hour (for both games, post-upgrade case). To me, that number of logins/hour is asking a lot Windows 32-bit, perhaps the impossible.
What Ive done to date:
First I made sure that I understood what I can do with Windows, and then implemented a base test on the Beta environment by setting up Windows for VLM management. I have both the /PAE and /3GB switches enabled (I have 8GB of RAM, so the /3GB switch gets me the extra 1GB memory for shared_pool w/o being the hindrance it would be if I was using 16GB+), and I have the AWE tailored to 768MB (the minimum that, via trial and error, that I could bring Oracle up under). This has allowed me to have a shared_pool of 320MB, a java_pool and large_pool of 152MB (more on the large_pool later). To date, Ive sized the buffer_cache at 5000MB (just to prove that I could do it, and see the results). So SGA is 5362MB. Ive set the Aggregate PGA Target to 256MB.
Ive looked at 64-bit Oracle on 64-bit Win2003. 64-bit Oracle 9.2.0.7 is certified on Win2003 (Itanium only, no certification yet for the really spiffy EM64T chip set). If dedicated will not cut it for the max login load, I could consider Shared mode, knowing that I get some performance hit. Going to 64-bit Theres some test data out there (Larry Pedigo, of Performance Tuning Corp. had a nice white paper), but Ive found little else. This seems, at first blush, the best choice for a Windows shop, but who knows? Ive come across one gotcha to date, the Failsafe Manager is only 32-bit (while Failsafe is 64-bit, why Oracle did that, I do not know), so has to be installed on a separate home, on a separate 32-bit Windows machine. Ive gotten it from Oracle Support that 32-bit Oracle Client will connect w/o issue to the 64-bit Oracle server, so having the various 32-bit applications used (on separate 32-bit Win2k machines) connect to the database is not a problem.
Ive looked at putting 32-bit Oracle on a 64-bit Win2003, so if the initial load/stress tests fails (at 5-7k logins/hour) I could easily migrate Oracle to the 64-bit. From what Ive read, I would expect the 32-bit Oracle to be way too slow.
Ive looked at going to RAC as it would buy me twice the memory for the pools.
Im just starting to look at moving to Oracle on UNIX. I have yet to estimate the total cost for doing so (early guess-timate is $750k), and Id have to bring a Unix Sys Admin on-board. Up to now, Turbine has been 90% Windows, 10% Linux.
Questions for the group:
Has anyone out there had this problem to tackle?
Am I correct in thinking that Windows 32-bit would be swamped by the anticipated load?
Is anyone running 64-bit Oracle on 64-bit Win2003? If so, did you get what you expected with respect to performance? Any obstacles that you had to overcome?
Has anyone suggestions as to configuration/environment that would help me?
Any responses would be a God-send to this poor, beleaguered DBA. Thanks very much (in advance).

Wow, you have a big task at hand, and it looks very fun to build.
I say you should consider 10g r2, as it will soon (or maybe already released) run on the AMD Opteron and the EM64T now that windows 2003 is set up for these processors.
If you are not ready to go 10g, then I would seriously consider RAC for the 9i database.
and I wouldn't install 32 bit on 64bit machine. Its not supported and would give you less than desirable results

Oracle 8i Server (32 bit) and oracle 9i client (32) bit on Win 2003 64bit??

Hi,
1st server (DB Server)
OS : Windows 2000 Server
Oracle 8i Server (32 bit)
2nd server (Web Server)
OS : Windows 2003 SP2 (64 bit)
Oracle 9i client (32 bit)
After i installed, oracle 9i client (32 bit) in Windows 2003 SP2 (64 bit), i managed to install and configure tnsnames and connects using SQL Plus. However, i CANNOT see Oracle in ODBC.
Que 1 : Why? Why i cannot see any Oracle in ODBC? Is it because of 64 bit?
Que 2: If i installed Oracle 9i client (64 bit), will it solve the problem?
Que 3: Will my .Net software gives problem when application installed in IIS interacts with DB server???
thanks

How to make 32 bit software to contact 64 bit oracle

Hi
I m using Oracle 10G 64 bit in Windows 64 bit server. Our Product is a 32 bit software and when i m trying to create database using our product it is throwing JDBC Driver error. So i installed 32 bit Oracle client and set the user env variables for client oracle home and path. but still i m not able to create the database because it is taking the client Oracle home which should not happen. i m totally confused now and not sure how to achieve the end goal. Can anyone help me on how to contact 64 bit Oracle using a 32 bit client software.
Thanks
Ram

Hi Aman
Sorry for late reply, was sick.
we ship the product to the customer where it is supposed to do it this way.
below is the error we are getting:
Data store 'historical' is broken: status is DRIVER.
This is specific to our product and This says that 32 bit product with its driver is not able to contact 64 bit oracle driver. So i introduced Oracle Client where our 32 bit product will speak with our 32 bit oracle client and oracle client inturn will speak with 64 bit oracle server. But again there was a confusion in this setup. When i did the Environment variables configuration, our product is trying to create the database in 32 bit client oracle home path which is not correct. Kindly suggest me if u have any idea on this.
Thanks
Ram

Upgrade Roadmap for Windows/Oracle/SAP from 32 bit to 64 bit

Hello,
what steps do I have to perform when upgrading the following system:
SOURCE:

In which sequence do I have to perform what steps?
First the OS, then the DB, then the SAP?
or something else?
Thanks for any help,
Michael

Hi Michael
Sorry to open your old thread.
Would you mind sharing your upgrade experience on 32 bit to 64 bit?
We are planning to upgrade our CRM 4.0 (Oracle 10g + Windows 2003 32 bit)
Source:
CRM 4.0 (Web AS 620 + 640 kernel)
Java 620
Windows 32 bit
Oracle 10g
Target
CRM 4.0 (Web AS 620 + 640 kernel)
Java 620
Windows 64 bit
Oracle 10g
I am bit confused about installing SAP CRM on Windows 64 bit software. I understand that you install SAP using 640 kernel for 64 bit.
I would appreciate if you can share your experience or the procedure followed.
After the 64 bit migration is completed, we will be upgrading our CRM 4.0 to CRM 2007.

If you are running the x64 version of Windows 2003 and not the Itanium version, you will find 10.2.0.1 here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winx64soft.html
You may then patch it to 10.2.0.3 by downloading the patch from Metalink.

Installing 32 bit oracle on 64 bit windows 7

My oracle application works only with 32 bit oracle.Now I need to install the application on a 64 bit windows 7.I tried installing oracle 11g 32 bit database on this machine(64 bit windows 7).During the final stages,it gave an error that the listener service has not started.When I checked the Services status in Computer Management->Services,I found that the listener has already started.I closed the error message and continued with installation.The installation completed successfully.But when I login to sql plus with my oracle database(SYSTEM/SYSTEM@MYHOSTNAME),it is giving tns error ORA 12541-TNS NO LISTENER.I tried every possible ways like restarting the service, and deleting the listener and creating it again,but still it doesnt work.
If anyone has faced the same problem,please give me solution.
I cannot try installing 64 bit oracle because my application is not compatible with 64 bit oracle.

Edited by: 1001322 on Apr 20, 2013 7:23 AMIn addition to the other comments, you need to make the distinction between the oracle database and the oracle client.
the application interacts directly with the oracle client software. The application should not know or care about the word length of the database.

Unable to install 64-bit Oracle ODBC Instant Client on Windows 2008 R2 machine.

I am trying to upgrade the Oracle ODBC driver from the 32-bit version currently installed (ODBC Instant Client Release 10.1.0.5.0, April 2006) to a newer 64-bit version but have not been successful. I have had success at uninstalling and reinstalling the existing 32-bit version package (release 10.1.0.5.0) however when I've tried to install the 64-bit ODBC Instant Client (Release 12.1, December 2012), I run the odbc_install.exe application inside the package. it appears to run without issue/compliant, but then I do not see the 64-bit Oracle ODBC driver anywhere, either if I go via the traditional Administrator Tools --> ODBC Data Sources or if I go to the c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe route. Further investigation into the ReadMe file (ODBC_IC_Readme_Win.html) reveals that you need the 3 DLLs oci.dll, oraociei11.dll and orannzsbb11.dll which the package does not come with. Where could I obtain the correct version of these DLLs or else where can I get an installation package which already contains them?
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you

Installing Oracle Web Tier 32-bit on a 64-bit Linux Operating System

Hello,
We're trying to install the 11.1.1.2 32-bit web tier on a RHEL 5 64-bit system following these directions: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/doc.1111/e14770/install.htm#CHDCGDJG
We're trying to figure out the equivalent on our system to these notes:
"c.Using a text editor such as vi, create a new file called gcc41 that contains the following conent:
#!/bin/sh
exec /usr/bin/gcc.orig -m32 -static-libgcc
-B/usr/lib/gcc/i586-suse-linux/2.95.3/ $*
Note:
The file i586-suse-linux/2.95.3 may differ slightly depending on the exact version of your Linux operating system. Verify the exact version of your Linux operating system in use; search for the 32bit directory in /usr/lib/gcc and obtain the exact file name."
We think ths might be the closest thing:
[root@server1 32]# pwd
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-redhat-linux/4.1.1/32
[root@server1 32]# ls

crtbeginS.o crtend.o crtfastmath.o libgcc_eh.a libgcov.a libgomp.so libmudflap.so libmudflapth.so libstdc++.so
Can someone tell us what "file" they are speaking of in this environment? Or is that "2.95.3" a directory??
Thanks for the help!

For anyone that might run into the same problem, here's what needs to be in the gcc41 for a RHEL 5 64-bit platform:
#!/bin/sh
