Installing Oracle 11gR2 Standard Edition on WINDOWS Server 2008R2 with ASM

Hi,
I want to setup Oracle 11g DB (11.2.0.2) Standard Edition on Windows Server 2008R2 x64 bit with ASM Instance. I would appreciate if you could suggest me with the following little but important questions.
The following link from Oracle doesnt have 11.2.0.2 db version for windows x64 bit. Do a patch (which I think is a complete installation) is needed to install after installing 11.2.0.1? or I can directly install 11.2.0.2?
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
Secondly, I have no such experience regarding installing and setting up ASM Instance on windows. How many disks or etc is needed for ASM (as ASM disks). One of the admin guy said, he has 6 disks (2 for OS and 6 you can use for Oracle or ASM so so). Could you please suggest, how should I divide the disk partitions of what should I say no idea :(
Also, do ASM instance (diskgroups,disks) should be setup before creating DB (through dbca?)
I was thinking like:
- Installing Oracle software
- Creating ASM disks,diskgroups,instance,etc
- Creating DB (using dbca?), isnt' it?
Bundle of thanks in advance.
Best Regards

Please any body help, for the installation of oracle forms and reports.
I have a formatted Windows 7 Ultimate
Where I have installed Adobe Acrobat Reader

Install Oracle 8.1.7 on Pentium 4 PC with Windows 2000

Hi, Guys:
I got the same problem. I couldn't install Oracle 8.1.7 on my
new system with P4 1.5G and Windows 2000. I downloaded Windows
service pack 2 and updated my OS. It still didn't work. It is
obvious that the problem is in Oracle 8.1.7. It can not work
with P4. The Universal Installer of Oracle couldn't run under
the P4 envirnment. Some expert introduced workaround. It was not
working for everyone. So who can solve this problem or who can
tell me whether Oracle has created patch to fix this up? By the
way, can Oracle 9i work with P4 and windows 2000? Thanks.

Installing Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows ME

Howdy all!
I am trying to install Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows ME..
Nice Welcome page.. click next
File Locations page..
Source Path: E:\STAGE\products.jar
Destination Path:
E:\STAGE\COMPONENTS\ORACLE.SWD.JRE\1.1.7.24\1\DATAFILES\EXPANDED\JRE\WIN32\B
IN\..\\Oracle\Ora81
Now, I click on help and it tells me that for Windows platforms I should see
a "Name" field under Destination to create an Oracle Home name. No "Name"
field... oh well. I change the Destination Path field to: C:\Oracle\Home\
and click next
The next screen I see says Error: There was a problem in accessing the
staging area. Please make sure the specified values for 'Source' and
'Destination' are valid.
It appears to me that the Source cannot be anything different (my cd rom
is drive E after all) so I try the following for Destination path:
C:\Oracle\
C:\Oracle
C:\Oracle\Home\
C:\Oracle\Home
C:\Oracle\Orawin\
C:\Oracle\Orawin
and get the same error message.. and I get no further than this.
My partner has a Win 98 machine and I notice that Oracle displays the "name" field on her machine - but not on mine of course. Does this mean I have no hope of getting Oracle 8.1.6 to work on Windows ME?
Thanks!

Bugger.
Thank you very much for the info!
Oracle 1.0.4 installed ok and does work - one or two crashes here or there but it does the job.

Problems installing Oracle Developer Suite 10g in windows 7

Hi Experts;
I have installed Oracle Developer Suite 10g in windows XP, but now I change to windows 7, 64 bits, I was trying to install this product and I'm having a lot of problems, apparently this product is not compatible with windows 7.
My question is, is there any product, like Oracle Developer Suite 10g for windows 7? I was looking for in the Oracle page, and I couldn't see anything, may be the name is diferent.
Thanks for your help.
Al

First off, Oracle Developer Suite (ODS) 10g is no longer supported so Oracle has discontinued improving the product. While ODS is not certified by Oracle for use on Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit), you can install and use on Windows 7 (32/64 bit). This is a commonly asked question so a search of the forum would have given you several solutions.
The limitations of the Oracle installer are:
1. You must have Administrator rights to install.
2. Windows 7 is not a supported version (it's version 6 and it is looking for version 5), so the installer exits.
3. It's unable to recognize Windows Managed virtual memory.
To get around these limitations you must do the following:
1. Modify your Virtual Memory settings and define a specific Min and Max amount. Look at this MS article if you need help making this change: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/change-the-size-of-virtual-memory
2. You must run the Oracle installer in compatibility mode for Windows XP. To do this,
- Right-click on the setup.exe and select the Compatibility tab and click "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP2"
3. While still in the properties and the compatibility tab, select the option, "Run as Administrator" and click OK.
Now run the Oracle setup.exe and your installation should succeed.

How to install Oracle Developer Suite 8 on windows 8 64bit

Hi, everyone.
I have facing problem. How to install Oracle Developer Suite 10g on windows 8. Please send me step by step install.
Thanks
Mbulur.

No version of Forms/Reports is currently supported on Windows 8. Also, because Error Correction support for versions older than 11 have ended, no new certifications will be provided for those versions. I would recommend you consider upgrading to Forms/Reports 11.1.2.1 as we are hoping for Win8 certifications in the future for this version.

Install Oracle Forms 10g R2 in Windows 7

Hi,
does anyone has ever succeeded to install Oracle Form 10g R2 in Windows 7 Home Premium?
How to overcome the Jinit issue in there? Friend of mine suggested we can download the Jinit for Vista version and replace the current Jinit with it.
Do I need to change anything too in Formsweb.cfg? Windows 7 works with IE 8.
Is the Forms can work with Oracle 11g R1 client 64 bit for Windows?
thanks in advance.

Why bother with JInit? It's long desupported. Just replace it with the latest Java Plugin, and you'll be fine.

I am trying to install oracle Imaging & Process management in windows XP.

or
If any one have I/PM installation steps for windows server 2003 Please provide the steps.
Any input would be greatly appreciable.

Vijay,
IPM is not certified to be installed on Windows XP (as for IPM services).
It is possible to install IPM on one server machine (or two, if you need Web). First, you have to decide, which services you have to install.
