Install Developer 6i on ORACLE 8.1.7 client

Saw that a lot of you have problems with Developer 6i and ORACLE
8.1.7 server.
I have installed 8.1.7 client only on my computer (this version
is mandatory, for corporate standard); when I try to install
Developer 6i, I get the error message:
The location specified 'D:\ORACLE\ora81' is already used as a
home for ORACLE 817 Production. It cannot be used as an ORACLE
home for 'nt'
I know that I could install Developer 6i in a different home, but
would have a second Oracle Client/Net installation on the
computer, unequal 8.1.7. This would be against our policies.
My question:
o Is ORACLE Client 8.1.7 compatible with Dev/6i ?
o If yes, how do I have to install the software?
o If not, Do I have to use a different developer version? Which
version?
By the way:
Got this Error on Windows/NT and Windows2000

you can not install Oracle8.1.7 and Forms6i in the same
oracle_home.
So, install it into a different ORACLE_HOME (directory) on the
same machine.

Install developer 2000 on oracle 9i

i have installed oracle 9i personal edition on my windows 2000 pc. however when i install developer 2000(forms 5) i am not able to access oracle database from developer and oracle 9i also does not give me access. i have installed oracle and developer 2000 on different folders.

I had the similar problem.
You have to copy the tnsnames.ora from ORACLE9i/network/admin to FORMS5/network/admin.
It seems to be a problem with the PATH-variable.
So WIN2k find the SQLPLUS in FORMS5 first and could not resolve the servicename.

Problem in Installing Forms 6i in Oracle 8

Hi there
I am a home user and at the moment studying for OCP Oracle Forms Developer Rel. 6/6i and I really need some good help.
I have some problem in the Installing the Orcale Forms 6i, I have already installed WinNT4 (Server) and Oracle 8.
SO far I have tried to Install Forms 6i four times but I failed. Due to this reason every time I had to also Uninstall the Oracle 8
from my system, because it started to give problems.
OK THIS IS THE PROBLEM :
When I installed Oracle 8, the user name was <system> and the password was <manager> in the SQL Plus. I used it for few times and worked fine. But when I installed the Oracle Developer 6i the SQL Plus didn't accepted the same user name and the password. I tried many commands that I could find in the Oracle documentations (On the CD) but so far nothing.
Need some command or any thing to over write the system so I can change the user name and password.
Plus when I use turn on my computer and run WINNT 4 (server) I get message that I have some problem in Oracle80.exe file and due to that my system hangs for couple of minutes.
I also want the sample tables, but I don't know the particular command for SQL *PL by which I can get the sample tables.
Please help me by suggesting what shall I do.
Regards
Mustafa

Installation Procedure
Follow this procedure to install Developer 6.0 and Oracle 8i on the same physical machine in separate ORACLE_HOMEs on NT:
1) Install Developer 6.0 using the instructions on the Developer CD.
Specify an appropriate drive and the ORANT directory as the destination. For example:
D:\ORANT
Note: You must install Developer in the Oracle home named DEFAULT_HOME.
2) Install RDBMS 8.1.5 from the Oracle 8i CD. Specify the following information when prompted for the Oracle Home and Full path:
Oracle Home ora8i
Full Path d:\orant\ora8i
Choose Typical Install
Global Database Name ora8i.us.oracle.com (This is an example)
SID ORA8I (This is an example)
As the product installs, a summary is displayed that shows the products that are installed and the space requirements.
When the installation is complete, the following information is displayed and the installer exits:
Oracle Database Configuration Assistant Alert Database Creation Completed.
Database Information
Global Database Name ora8i.us.oracle.com
SID ORA8I
Sys password change_on_install
System passwd manager
3) A TNSNAMES entry needs to be created in the tnsnames.ora file for the new Oracle 8i installation. You can find the file in:
d:\orant\net80\admin\tnsnames.ora
A default entry will look like this:
alias.world
(DESCRIPTION
(ADDRESS_LIST
(ADDRESS
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = )
(Port = )
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = )
For example, if you installed on a machine with a HOSTNAME of TEST, a SID named ORA8I, on TCP/IP with port 1521, and an alias of NEW, you would create the following entry:
NEW.world
(DESCRIPTION
(ADDRESS_LIST
(ADDRESS
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(Host = TEST)
(Port = 1521)
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORA8I)
4) If you manually created the entry, save and close the tnsnames.ora file.
You can now connect to the local database instance of 8i using the DBSTRING as NEW. For example, you can connect as scott/tiger@NEW.

Oracle developer suite installed under a different Oracle Home

I have Oracle 10g r2 installed on a RHAS4 server.
I installed Oracle developer suite 10.1 on this server. In the installation procedures, there are specific instructions to not install it under the ORACLE_HOME for an existing database installation.
Oracle was already installed under /usr/lib/oracle (don't ask me why, I didn't do it).
I installed oracle developer suite under /oracle/dev. If I set ORACLE_HOME to /usr/lib/oracle, proc responds with:
Symbol `kpccapCTarr' has different size in shared object, consider re-linking
PCC-F-NOERRFILE, unable to open error message file, facility PR2
If I set ORACLE_HOME to /oracle/dev, it works correctly.
This appears to require me to switch my oracle home setting each time I switch between using Pro*C and sqlplus. This in very inconvenient. I have worked on many, many systems in the past which had one ORACLE_HOME for both the RDBMS and the development tools.
Is this a new constraint introduced by Oracle? Where does this restriction come from?
Is there something I don't understand and have I installed the developer suite incorrectly?

It looks to me this is a mess; i have installed oracle 10g on rhas4 and it didn't install under that folder. I'd suggest to run oui/run installer and show what are the oracle_homes found there; maybe you should reinstall it in the proper locations, under different accounts, etc.

Hi,
I'm using Ubuntu since a couple of months now and i'am very happy of it.
I want to install developer suite 10gr2 on ubuntu. Of course I can do that with an xp virtualization.
But as the XE database is also available for ubuntu, with explanations for installation http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/linux/install/xe-on-kubuntu.html I want to do the same with forms builder.
Is there a tutorial for that ? is it even possible?
Thanks for sharing your experience.

Problem Installing Developer Suite on WIndows Vista

Hi! i'm a student of computer science, and i need to install developer suite for a proyect i need to do for one of my classes.

There's been an internal error. Send the following files to the Oracle Suport Services: Unknown, Unknow, Unknow". I've also tryed with the setup from the main folder and i get the same alert.

Please help me to install the program!

Which developer suite are you using???

Installing Developer 10G on Windows Vista

Hi, sorry for posting this here but I wasn't sure whereelse to put it. Anyway, has anyone been able to install the Developer suite on a Windows Vista machine? I've tried using XP compatibility mode but the command line launcher keeps telling me that it can't install on O/S version 6. I've got the latest version of the Developer suite and can't seem to find any patches. Anyone got any ideas?

Hmm, sorry didn't notice the Installation forum as I was looking at the Developer forums only. Still, I've got it all working including running the forms in IE7.
I did as you said, set the pagefile to manual setting and put something similar to what the system recommended. I ran the Developer suite setup.exe file in compatibility mode and checked the run as administrator option. I then found that Firefox would run the form I created but IE wouldn't. I installed the latest Java (1.6) from the Sun site and then copied/pasted the jvm.dll file from the new install to Program Files\Oracle\Jinitiator 1.3.1.22\bin\hotspot after renaming the original jvm.dll file so's I didn't lose it. Anyway, everything seems to work now and I'm posting this message to orafaq.com where I also put a request for help.
Ta,
Phil.

Install developer suite 10g on windows 7

hi to all,
I would like to install developer suite 10g on my notebook windows7 32-bit. It 's possible?
thanks
Silvia

Silvia,
Yes, it is possible to run Oracle Forms 10g R2 on Windows 7, although, it is not officially supported by Oracle. Oracle has only certified Forms 11g (Oracle Fusion Middleware (OFM) 11g) for Windows 7. If your development requires a supported Oracle environment, then I suggest you upgrade to OFM.
The key to setting up Forms 10g on Windows 7 is the preparation. First, the Oracle Installer doesn't recognize Windows managed virtual memory so you will need to change your system virtual memory settings from "Windows Managed" to a specific size (typically 2048mb minimum). Second, you will need to change the compatibility to "Windows XP" for the Forms 10g installer and run the installer as "Administrator" for the installation to succeed.
Hope this helps,
Craig B-)
If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

How to install Procedural Option in Oracle 10g Database express edition

How to install Procedural Option in Oracle 10g express edition
I'm using Oracle 10g Database express edition. Let me know how to run a procedure.

I'm not sure of the meaning of ORA-00900 for Oracle XE but I think that PL/SQL is already installed by default according to the XE features list.
See the Oracle® Database Express Edition 2 Day Developer Guide about procedure call.

Problem in installing developer on vista

when i install developer 10g on my vista it checks my system requirement it tells me this:
system must be: 5.0 , 5.1 , 5.2. actual 6.0
failed <<<<
and before it the database enterprise installed perfectly
i hope someone explain this to me

Roughly speaking vista reports as windows NT '6.0' vista. windows 2003 is 5.2 , XP is 5.1 and windows 2000 is 5.0.
This measn the version of oracle developer you downloaded was not originally certifiied to be installed on vista.

Installing Developer 6.0

I have purchased the OTN track for Solaris, and was beginning my
install of the Developer server today, and discovered that the
installation instructions are not very easy to find, and that it
does not seem to follow the same installation path as the other
Oracle products. So to my question: How do you install
Developer server 6.0, and does anyone have documentation on the
install process?

Installing Developer 6.0 on a network

Hello,
I am new here. I have inherited the unenviable task of upgrading Oracle Developer 6.0 runtime software to a network already running Developer 4.5 and 5.0. What is the best way to perform this task?
Do I have to know all the DLL files copied to the local machine? How do I upgrade the registry? Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Jim.

From what I know you cannot install Personal Oracle and Developer on the same Oracle Home.
The Installaztion sequence is:
1.st) install Developer on the Default Oracle Home
2.nd) install Personal Oracle, specifying a different Oracle Home (say "PO_OH")
After the installations, in order to have a connection from Developer to Oracle Database,
you have to specify a Database alias, using Sql Net Easy configuration, say:
database alias : mydb
protocol : tcp/ip
host name : 127.0.0.1
database inst. : orcl
Finally you can try the connection, specifying as Database "mydb".
If you don't want to specify neither mydb, you can put this string in the register:
a) run regedit
b) click Hkey_Local_Machine - software - Oracle
c) if you don't have a string local, add it (click on modify-new-string e specify 'local') and give it the value "mydb".
In my pc it works fine.
Hope it helps.

Installing OMB Plus in Oracle JDeveloper

Hello
I have JDeveloper 11.1.1.3.0, and I like to enable the IDE for OMBPlus development.
I followed the guide at http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/owb.111/b31279.pdf (appendix Installing OMB Plus in Oracle JDeveloper)
1. Drop shiphome/owb/lib/int/OMBPlus_jdev.jar in the JDeveloper
installation directory/lib/ext directory.
2. Start JDeveloper.
3. From the Tools menu, select Preferences, OMBPlus, and then OMBPlus
Installation to set the Warehouse Builder installation directory. For example,
c:\oracle\ora81. Do not include the Warehouse Builder directory at the end
of this path.
4. Restart JDeveloper.
Repeat steps 3 and 4 each time you change the Warehouse Builder installation
directory.
However I do not get a OMBPlus menu in the Preferences window.
Can you please help me?
/kasper

kasper,
There is a bug report in support.oracle.com with the exact same symptoms - I could find no documentation about the version of JDev supported by OMBPlus, but I'm strongly guessing that JDev 11 isn't supported. In fact, I guarantee it.
I've cracked open OMBPlus.jar and had a look at the extension manifest - it's for JDev 9.0.x, which isn't available to download any more. Your best bet would probably be to file a support request to see what they have to say.
