Install oracle on company's desktop computer

May I install Oracle Database 10.2.0.1.0 Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows on the desktop computer which is allocated by company ?
And It will only be used to learn.

I don't see any reason why you can't install oracle on your machine desktop. I thnk you should be ok but confirm with your IT dept if you are allowed to download any software on their machine, if they are ok, you are good to go. I recommend you should install express edition

Which Adobe product and which version? Which operating system?
Cloud: yes, you activate the software on a maximum of two computers at the same time regardless of operating system.
Non-Cloud: depends. You can activate the software on a maximum of two computers but they must both be running either Mac OS X or both be running Windows. e.g. You cannot run a non-Cloud Mac version on Windows.

MBR not being written to during install of RT to a Desktop Computer.

Hello,
We have been trying on and off for months in order to get LabView RT to load
onto a desktop computer and have that computer boot up directly from the hard
drive we installed RT on. First we go through the HD format disk procedure, and
it doesn’t give any errors. When we reboot the computer after the install, we
can not boot from the hard drive. The hard drive still seems to have Grub (a
boot loader that was used previously on this hard drive to run Linux) since it
spits out Grub errors while trying to boot. I checked the boot sector of the
hard drive, and that seems to have some LabView content on there, and the
partition where the LVRT is seems to have the files that should be there as
well.
We formatted the hard drive using partition Magic, and set the disk up to have
one primary partition that was set to active, and formatted as FAT32. We did
not specify a drive letter for the partition while creating it since C:\ was
already being used on the computer where we were formatting the disk, and I
know that LVRT uses drive C:\ as well... so we didn't want any conflicts.
After all this… no errors during the install.. and still we
can not boot from the hard drive. Instead, we boot using the boot disk, which
seems to work fine, but we would really like to be able to boot from the hard
drive and take the floppy out of the computer that we are using.
Has anyone else encountered any problems like this before? I
have read some of the forum posts about people having the same type of issue,
but they were able to set the partition as Active and everything worked out, but that was not the case for us.
Any help is greatly appreciated since calling NI support
doesn’t really seem to lead anywhere, and some of them seem like they don’t
know too much about hard drives (which is understandable, since this is a very
small portion of what they do)
Thanks
-Mark

Trey,
The drive that I have formatted was the IDE drive I was using previously for
the RTOS that was not booting up on its own, but was running when we used the
boot disk.
I ran the PC Eval before the format, and everything came back successful.
I deleted the partition, created a new one, and formatted
the disk again to FAT32 via Disk Management in Windows XP Pro (just to start
clean). After that I ran CHKDSK, and no errors were reported. I then booted
using the PC Eval disk, and this time I got this error:
WARNING: Flush from cache to disk Failed
I’m not sure why suddenly I have this error, since all I did
was reformat the disk. What should the partition setup as anyways… I have never
seen that mentioned anywhere. Is it supposed to be a logical or primary? Should
it be set to active?
I will try different combinations since somehow it was
working before, so there must be a way to get it formatted correctly. I’ll let
you know which one seems to work.

How to install oracle workflow on my desktop?

i am having oracle 9i in my machine. i want to install oracle workflow. kindly tell me how to install or provide me with the link where installation has been explained.please let me know where i will find that documen?t
thanks.

There are two major components to install in Oracle Workflow.
1. Workflow Client - Otherwise called Oracle Workflow Builder, this is a windows based tool to design and develop your workflow process. This tool is the developer's tool for transforming the business process into a workflow process. The process definition can be stored to filesystem as a file with .wft extension or directly to a database where workflow server is installed.
2. Workflow Server - Workflow engine that executes the workflow process designed using the workflow builder above. The workflow process designed above is loaded into the workflow server either from the builder directly by connecting to the workflow server schema or using the workflow definitions loader which is a command line utility that reads the .wft file.
Installation
1. You may install the Workflow Builder 2.6.2 downloadable from OTN on your PC. This needs an appropriate Oracle Home using which the builder is built by Oracle. I believe 2.6.2 can be installed into a 9i home. It is better that you install the builder into a new Oracle Home and not use any existing homes.
2. Workflow Server 2.6.2 is shipped with Oracle Database 9iR2. In the additional or optional components (not sure about the exact words) section of your 9iR2 CD you can find Oracle Workflow 2.6.2 that provides the workflow server. You may install this into the existing Oracle Database 9iR2 Oracle home. After installing oracle workflow server you should run the Workflow Configuration Assistant to create the workflow schema in the database and create the required objects in the schema in order for the Workflow Engine to be become operational.
In summary, installation of Workflow Server has two phases.
o Install Oracle Workflow to 9iR2 home.
o Run Workflow Configuration Assistant to configure the workflow server
Once the Workflow Configuration Assistant is run successfully, you need to set up the PLSQL DAD (Database Access Descriptor) to access workflow home page using the Apache server that comes bundled with Oracle Database 9iR2.
Please refer to Oracle Workflow 2.6.2 installation document for more information.

Install Oracle 9i client on a computer with Oracle 10g Client

Hello all!!
I'm using a computer with Oracle 10g client, and I access two databases. One server has Oracle 10g server, and the other server has Oracle 9i server.
I want to install 9i client, to have it also in my computer. I haver read that I just have to install it in a different ORACLE_HOME, but I have a doubt.
If I install 9i client, would I be able to use the utilities, (exp, expddp, sqlldr) of both versions, or which version will be used in the command line for the utilities.
Thanks a lot!!!

To start with, Home Selector is a "9i thing" (and older), in 10g there's the OUI -> Installed Products... -> Environment tab instead.
About the 9i dbca with other Oracle products installed. If you use launch.exe to start via dbca start menu shortcut, it uses ora92\assistants\dbca as working directory ("start from"). So when not looking for "numbered dlls" like oracore9.dll, a later/different version will be loaded if earlier in path, since loading goes through jre directories, ora92\assistants\dbca, then the dir's from path variable. From there it may start to link in libraries from different homes (on my laptop, "launch.exe dbca" uses files from 2 additional home paths!)
But, if you instead use dbca.bat started from ora92\bin, it will look in the right directories first and there's no dll mess-up. (But only when using the correct cwd!)
Plain and simple: stay very far away from multiple-general-home installs. It is possible to install allright, in different homes and all very nicely, but there will be pain when you decide to use the stuff (perhaps with sql*plus as the only exception, but I've run into bugs with that too).

How to Install Oracle Restart

Hello All,
I have a standby database with ASM. I would like it to be start on the server reboot.
I have read chapter 4 of Oracle Database Administration Guide 11g R2 where it mentions
If you install Oracle Restart by installing the Oracle Grid Infrastructure for a
standalone server and then create your database, the database is automatically added
to the Oracle Restart configuration, and is then automatically restarted when required.
However, if you install Oracle Restart on a host computer on which a database already
exists, you must manually add the database, the listener, the Oracle Automatic Storage
Management (Oracle ASM) instance, and possibly other components to the Oracle
Restart configuration.
Please can someone help me with the steps to setup Orace restart in 11gr2.
Thanks

Install oracle database prior to installing oracleAS ?

Hello world,
I am trying to installing oracle application server on my computer.
Going through installation steps I find that OracleAS metadata repository will be created automatically in a database.
Does the installing OracleAS comes with Oracle database? or Am I required to install Oracle Database before I install OracleAS Infrastructure components?
Please point me in the right direction.
Thanks
-bifacts
Edited by: bifacts on Jan 27, 2011 4:47 PM

Hi,
By default for OAS 10g r2 metadata repository get created during your oracle infra installation,
There is no need to install separate oracle Database before installing Application server.
It depends on which OAS are you installing.
Kindly revert for any clarification
