Plz guide me i didnt find any suitable article on net till now...also let me knw where i can find step by step proc to install
thanks for your help.

MACOSX 10.4 (Tiger OS) PowerPC based systems is certified on Oracle Database release 10gR1 (10.1.0.5).
well, the certification tab doesnt talk about Mac OS X v10.5 (Leopard). I don't think it's not certified yet. But if its for learning purpose, you can always give it a try. :)

  • How to install oracle 10g in MAC OS X LION

    Can some one help me in installing oracle 10g in my mac os xlion.. I also need to know where can i download ORACLE 10g for mac ??

    Hi,
    About installing Oracle 10g in OS X Lion, I think you may need to install in other platform such as LINUX. Because Oracle 10g R2 installer packages were removed from OTN site which it may end-of-support.

  • Install oracle 10g on mac os

    Hi
    I just interested in try to install Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4.0) on my Mac Book Pro

    I downloaded it and try, but it seem doesn't work.

    Thank you!

    Snow Leopard and Lion are currently not supported. Others have attempted installs on these two versions, with varying degrees of success.

    Use google to find many blog posts such as this one - http://www.nfjsone.com/blog/rick__denatale/2011/07/installing_oracle_on_os_x_snow_leopard
    One other option is to install Oracle on a VM - use VirtualBox (free download from https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads) VM to create a VM where Oracle Linux (free download from https://edelivery.oracle.com/linux) can be installed - then install either 10gR2 or 11gR2 (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html) in the OEL VM

  • Oracle 10g on Mac OS X

    So what do you think about Oracle releasing Oracle 10g on Mac OS X? Overall, I think it's a vote of confidence from Oracle's part on OS X's viability and potential in the enterprise. Especially since Oracle has also released their development tools for OS X as well.
    - What are your thoughts on Oracle on Mac OS X?
    - Has anyone here installed Oracle 10g on Mac OS X?
    - Is your current employer considering Oracle 10g on Mac OS X?
    - Do you think it's a good idea for Oracle to release 10g on Mac OS X?
    I initally learned that Oracle released 10g on Mac OS X when I learned about the following site. It's goal is to get people to switch to Mac.

    did you get a satisfactory response on your question re oracle 10g on os x snow leopard?  I am curious as I have been 'struggling' with it for a few days now.  To my experience thusfar, the oracle files provided are not up to date with current java versions or os x leopard and require some tweaking.  my own answer to your question is that it does appear that you can install and run oracle 10g on mac os x snow leopard, but it seems to be a little hacky to get through it all.  Some information here, other information there, haven't yet found a single source that has all the play by play and gotcha fixes documented.  I am rsisting nuking my debian install on amd64 just to put fedoracore which does appear to be a supported env for oracle 10 on linux.

  • Error while installing Oracle 10G on Oracle Enterprise Linux 4.8 32 bit

    Our machine is a x86_64 machine with 32 GB of RAM available. I have installed OEL 4.8 32 bit on this machine (configured swap space of 32 GB) and OEL by default boots with the Hugemem kernel.
    I am trying to install Oracle 10G enterprise edition on this. All required kernel parameters, shell limits etc. have been verified and configured. The preinstallation checks succeed on all the tests and installation proceeds smoothly. However in the last step of configuring the database using dbca following two errors are thrown:
    1. ORA-27102 - out of memory
    2. ORA-01034 - ORACLE not found
    Most places where I am reading are telling to configure kernel parameters. However that doesn't seem to be the problem in this case.
    Please Help.

    Hi;
    What is exact db version? What installation log says?

  • Oracle 10g for Mac

    I am planning to install oracle 10g trial on my macbook.., some say that we can not install on Mac OS X, it can be installed only on Mac OS X Server.
    is it true.., anyone tried it installing on OS X
    thanks

    While there isn't an Oracle database version for the Intel chip set, you can install a VMWare Fusion virtual machine and access the database from the Mac OS natively. The Mac Leopard version of the Oracle Client software was released a few months ago. You can find instructions for configuring the Oracle Client software on my blog:

    Hi
    Here's the resolution that can work for you:
    Disable the "Print Spooler" service before running the installer.
    1.Open Control Panel: Start --> Settings --> Control Panel
    2.Double-click "Services"
    3.On the list of NT Services, right-click "Print Spooler"
    4.Select "Stop"
    5.Select "Properties"
    6.Under Startup Type, select "manual" or "disabled"
    7.Reboot your NT Server
    8.After rebooting, verify that the Print Spooler is still "stopped".
    9.Delete Program Files\Common Files\Installshield\Engine folder
    10.Re-run the installer.
    11.After installation, re-set the Print Spooler service to Startup type "Automatic" and start the service.

  • Error message when installing Oracle 10g on Windows XP Professional

    Hello,
    I need help installing oracle 10g database. When I attempt to run the installation from the setup.exe icon, I get a message that says
    "Error in writing to directory C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\OraInstall2007-04-29_01-19-29PM. Please ensure this directory is writable and has atleast 45Mb of disk space. Installation cannot continue."
    When I try to open the installation from the Autorun icon, it points to an innability to find setup.exe and when I go back to Setup.exe, it gives me the above error. Everytime I try to run the installation and it fails, the installation leaves a folder in my Temp folder with the above format. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I do have administrative privilege on my computer and I have plenty of space. I have 80gb of free space. What do I do to successfully install the software without incurring those messages I displayed in my first thread?

  • Repeated ORA-12547 Messages after installing Oracle 10g

    Hi,
    I installed Oracle 10g on a Redhat ES 3 box, and the install went okay, but when I try and interact with the server I get the message:
    ORA-12547: TNS: lost contact
    For example, if I use the Database Configuration Assistant to attempt to create a database, I will see the above message when it begins the database creation process, or if I try to interact with the Oracle server using sqlplus I will see the above message after each command entered.
    I had recently tried to install Oracle 8.1.7 on the same box, but abandoned that after deciding that the effort required to link Oracle 8 on RHES3 just wasn't worth it. I have been told that this previous partial installation may be the cause of the problem, and have been advised to uninstall Oracle 8, uninstall Oracle 10g, and reinstall Oracle 10g. I find it hard to believe that it would require such an action to solve this problem. Is there any configuration changes I can make to resolve it? Also, what does this message actually mean?
    I am new to Oracle, so thanks for any help with this problem.
    Colm.

    My last message asking for a grater degree of specificity was not overly specific, hence I am posting the kernel parms that I have set with the hopes that you will spot one that I set improperly or one that I neglected to set.

  • How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster

    Dear all:
    please advice How can i install oracle 10g on linux cluster service ..
    thanks ,,

    Without RAC, you can only have one instance manage the database. One instance = one set of processes communicating via IPC.
    Unless you know of a way to have processes use memory-based IPC across nodes, you need to pick a node and install & run the database software on that node.
