Installation of Patch Set 9.2.0.7 on Windows XP Pro SP2 fails

When I tried to apply patch set 9.2.0.7 to my 9.2.0.5 installation on a computer with MS Windows XP Pro SP2, shortly after the selection of the target Oracle home directory the installer told me to shut down a large number of Windows processes (like RAS, RPC, etc., about 30 in total) that are not related at all to the installation.
Am I getting anything wrong? Or is this a bug (as I would suspect)?

You are facing an annoying problem with Oracle installation on Windows.
It seems, some files are locked by
other processes than the Installer process.
The following workaround worked (for me):
Temporarily remove the reference to the Oracle Home at system startup
1. Rename the Oracle Home \bin directory to \bin_save
2. Reboot the system
3. Rename the bin_save directory back to bin again
4. Start patch installation again

Java_es_05q1-windows-x86 install fails 1628: Failed to complete installation on windows xp pro sp2

Hi All,
I'm trying to install Java ES 2005Q1 on my windows xp pro sp2 notebook, but it always breaks with this error message: 1628: Failed to complete installation
I realized that the SUNJavaES.log always ends at line 151 which is 131077 characters long.
These are the last few characters of this line: ..." AD_MANUAL_ES_CONSOLE_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manua l\es\console\help\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Server-Root\manual\fr\ad min\ AD_MANUAL_FR_ADMIN_HELP=D:\Sun\JES2005Q1\Serve "
I attached the last log file.
This line always breaks at the 131077th char independently of the content of it. I tried to skip some components of JES to see what will occur. The current content of this line obviously was different, but it has broken at the same point.
Thanks in advence for any help.

This could be due to a known issue with length of installation path
Can you try and install in a location with less than 8 characters ?
eg: C:\JES05q1 or C:\Sun

Patch set 10.2.0.3 for Windows 64-bit

I need to migrate to Oracle 10g 64-Bit for Windows and apply the patch set to upgrade to 10.2.0.3, on an Intel-XEON processor server, running Windows 2003 Enterprise 64-Bit.
When I look for the appropriate patch on Metalink, I cannot find a pat for my environment.Metalink has the following info:
Microsoft Windows 64bit versions:
=========================================
For Microsoft Windows 64bit, for the AMD64 or EM64T processors:
Use the platform titled: MS Windows x64 (64-bit)
For Microsoft Windows 64bit, for the Intel Itanium processor:
Use the platform titled: MS Windows Itanium (64-bit).
==========================================
Can I interpret the above to say, that I can use the MS Windows x64 (64-bit) for my server? I know that I don't have an Intel-Itanium or an AMD64 processor.
The segement "Microsoft Windows 64bit versions comes from note 430449.1 How to find DB patches for MS Windows (x64) versions.
Any help, will be greatly appreciated.
Thank you.

Oracle 9i - Unable to set /PAE and /3GB Switch in Windows 2003 Server SP2

Hi
I was wondering if anyone had any experience on Windows 2003 Server (SP2) with setting /PAE and /3GB switches.
I am unable to set both together, setting one or the other works fine in the boot.ini.
Oracle seem to think you can set both but it causes my OS to crash/become unstable.
Has anyone set both switches together on 32 bit Windows 2003 Server successfully?
I am using Oracle 9.2.0.3 Enterprise Edition.
Thanks

The server is new. But we installed 10g before 11g was available. Then upgraded to 11g, so it is a little mess. What the oracle installer should have done in a fresh install, it is maybe not what the server has now.
I have checked for memory issues, processor issues, http errors, every EM setting and metric, and everything looks just right, but the applications are slow and the users are upset.
Anyway, thanks for the advice. Maybe we will need to re-install everything or go back to 10g on Windows 2003 Server x32. That configuration was working fine before rushing into 11g.

11g installation on Windows XP Pro SP2

Hi!
The 11g database installation, unfortunately, does not work "out-of-the-box", like it does with 10g. The question is: Why can't the EM be installed with the DBCA?
Scenario:
1)
I had to install the EM Agent first, before installing the database software. When creating the database, the DBCA did show a EM control address: http://localhost:4889/em. EM agent service running. However, when trying to access; web page cannot be found?
2)
I ran a new installation of the software and then created a new database instance. Worked fine and after creating a listener, the listener could not be started. A Windows error message appeared. In any case, the listener has been properly created, but can' t be started? (I cannot post the listener script right now!)
Please help!
Thanks!

Enterprise manager is configured on a per database basis. Regarding the listener issue, once the listener has been configured you must start it from the command prompt, just exactly it was on previous releases, this will create a service entry at the windows services console, and you should verify this is marked to be automatically started. In case you are unable to start the listener, could you please post the related error messages?

Help! Installation of Windows 7 Pro 64-bit fails...

I am trying to install Windows 7 Pro 64-bit on my new video system:
- I boot the PC with the install CD inserted
- I get
    . the installation screen
    . accept licence agreement
    . select on which disk I want to install windows
    . the copy to disk finishes
    . the next step is to reboot my system so that windows continues the install from disk.
   . however after the reboot, just after the systems POST, I just get a black screen and nothing happens.
I already removed all other disks and removed the raid card :
   So only the...
       - motherboard Asus P6T SE
       - CPU : Intel quad core 950 3.2Mhz
       - Corsair 12 GB
       - single WD 160GB disk ( for windows )
       - LG DVD player
       - Corsair PSU
       - ps2 keyboard
       - ps2 mouse
... remains attached
What is also strange is that there is no F6 during the install of Windows XP. Previously you could press F6 for additional drivers.
Now you can not. I tried to press F6 a couple of times but no additional options came on the screen.
I also allready preformated the disk : single partition and NTFS preformated with default 4kb cluster size.
Anybody an idea?

Thanks... above helped... when searching on that forum I found someting about changing SATA from IDE to AHCI.
So in the bios I changed ...
   > Storage Configuration > Change Configure SATA as IDE
... to ...
> Storage Configuration > Change Configure SATA as RAID
... and now it seems to work.
I used RAID instead of simple AHCI because I want to use raid0 (striping) for my paging disks.
So I will have a single disk for W7 Pro and use 2 disks for paging and cache.
My other 6 disks will later be used in raid3 on an areca controller.
Still working on my installation so I will leave this post open until windows 7 pro is installed / updated / configured.

MBA 13", Parallels 6, and Windows 7 Pro installation

Has anyone else experienced a longer than usual "completing installation" screen when they installed Windows 7 Pro? More specifically, installing Windows 7 Pro (64-bit) onto a flash drive (thumb drive)? I've already "force quit" Parallels once and re-started my virtual machine. It returns to the "completing installation" screen.

I am not sure if the transfer speed of USB 2.0 was causing a delay in the installation. I opted to install the copy of Windows 7 Pro (64-bit) onto my MacBook Air hard drive.

Hello,
The same problem is documented on Oracle metalink:
OUI 10.2 Prerequisite Check Fails With OUI-15038 And "[value for param now is null]" [ID 602059.1]:
Cause
Some kernel tunables (parameters) have been changed but the new values will not be activated until the next server reboot
Solution
Reboot the server so that the kernel tunable (parameter) changes are activated before installing the Oracle software
Workaround
The errors/warnings can be ignored and the Oracle installation can be completed successfully, but it is best to schedule a reboot of the server soon so that the pending kernel parameter changes are activated.

9.2.0.3 patch set installation fails on Solaris 8

i've installed Oracle9iR2 (64-bit) client on a Solaris 8 system and i'm now having problems installing the 9.2.0.3 patch set. during the installation process i get the following error message from OUI:
Error in invoking target install of makefile
$ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/ins_net_client.mk
i checked the installation log and then $ORACLE_HOME/install/make.log. make.log reports that the failing command is:
/usr/ccs/bin/make -f ins_net_client.mk install ORACLE_HOME=/opt/oracle9i/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0
this command fails when trying to link trcroute. the link command seems to have incorrect paths as it seems to expect to find crt?.o files from $ORACLE_HOME/lib/WS6U1 while they are located in $ORACLE_HOME/lib/WS6U2/lib/v9. i modified $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/env_network.mk (CCVER, COMPOBJ) so that crt?.o can be found.
after this change the same link command fails with this message:
ld: fatal: file $ORACLE_HOME/network/lib/s0nur.o:
wrong ELF class: ELFCLASS32
ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to trcroute
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `trcroute'
i checked the object files in network/lib and they all seem to be ELF 32-bit.
does someone know what's causing these problems with the installation and how to fix it?
best regards,
aspa

that's what i started to suspect as well. it's quite likely that the patch is for 32-bit installations. i'll try it with the 64-bit patch. thanks.

Installing Current patch set after SAP installation

Hi,
We are installing SAP ECC6.0 on Solaris x64. We installed the Oracle RDBMS software and missed installing the Oracle Current patch set. We have proceeded with the SAP installation. Can we install the Patches after the SAP installation or do i need to uninstall SAP and do t all over again. Please help asap as i need to complete it..
Regards
Dee

Hello Dee,
> Can we install the Patches after the SAP installation or do i need to uninstall SAP and do t all over again
Of course you can install the patchset after the SAP installation. The current patchset is the 10.2.0.4.
After applying the current patchset - please install also the "on-top" patches - check sapnote #1137346 for this. Also check sapnote #830576 for setting the corresponding database parameters after the patchset installation.

Oracle 9.2.0.3.0 patch set for windows - questions

Hi!
I have for that some questions. I have oracle 9.2.0.1.0 on a windows 2003 server running with one local database - no real apllication cluster.
I don't understand which instructions I have to make for oracle upgrade?
Must I also make the 3. instruction? Connect to databse prior and drop?
Must I also make the post install action for my database?
(startup migrate ...)
what means at post install actions the following:
'execute these post install actions only if you have one or more databases associated to the upgraded $oracle_homee.
My database path is e:\oracle\oradata\database my oracle path is e:\oracle\ora92 have I in my case make the post install actions?
Thanks for help!
1. When applying this patchset on Windows NT, XP or Windows 2000, you must log onto the system as a user with Administrative privileges
(e.g. as a user which is a member of the local Administrators group).
2. Unzip the downloaded patch set file into a new directory.
3. Drop the xmlconcat function by running the following commands:
drop public synonym xmlconcat;
drop function xmlconcat;
4. Shut down any existing Oracle Server instances in the ORACLE_HOME to be patched with normal or immediate priority. i.e.: Shutdown all instances (cleanly). Stop the database services, and stop all listener, agent and other Oracle processes running in or against the ORACLE_HOME to be installed into.
5. Perform the following pre-install steps for Real Application Clusters (RAC) enviroments only:
IN ADDITION TO STOPPING ALL ORACLE SERVICES IN THE ORACLE_HOME TO BE UPGRADED:
If you are running in a RAC enviroment, stop the following Windows service(s)/devices(s) using the Net Stop command:
Stop the Windows service named "OracleGSDService"
Stop the Windows service named "OracleCMService9i".
Stop the Windows device named "OraFenceService" (This Device does NOT show up as a Service in the Control Panel).
For Example:
C:\>net stop OracleGSDService
C:\>net stop OracleCMService9i
C:\>net stop OraFenceService
Once the above steps have been performed on all the nodes of the cluster, you should then be able to upgrade the OSD components to the 9.2.0.3 versions. This can be accomplished by...
xcopy all the files in the \Disk1\preinstall_rac\osd\*.* directory to the directory in which the OSD components were originally installed on all nodes(typically %SystemRoot%\system32\osd9i).
Note: You may also be able to look in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oracle\OSD9i registry key to determine the directory in which the original OSD components were installed. Now the OSD components can be restarted on all the nodes in the cluster.
C:\>net start OraFenceService
C:\>net start OracleCMService9i
C:\>net start OracleGSDService
After all of the above steps have been completed on all the nodes of the cluster, you are now ready to proceed with the Oracle 9.2.0.3.0 patchset installation.
6. Start the installer:
If the current Installer version is less than 2.2.0.18.0 then download the Installer 2.2.0.18.0 from Oracle Metalink where it can be accessed with the bug number 2878462 and choosing the MS Windows NT/2000 Server platform, then run the setup.exe 2.2.0.18.0 from the C:\Program Files\Oracle\oui\install directory .
7. You may install the Patch Set through either an interactive or a silent installation.
To perform an interactive installation using the Oracle Universal Installer graphical interface:
1. Start the installer from the newly installed OUI 2.2.0.18.0 by running the version of setup.exe located at C:\Program Files\Oracle\oui\install and verify
that the version of the OUI GUI is 2.2.0.18.0 before proceeding.
2. Follow the steps given below within the installer:
1. On the Welcome screen, click the Next button. This will display the File Locations screen.
2. Click the Browse button for the Source... entry field and navigate to the stage directory where you unpacked
the Patch Set tar file.
3. Select the products.jar file. Click the Next button
The products file will be read and the installer will load the product definitions.
The products to be loaded will be displayed (verify ORACLE_HOME setting for this first).
4. Verify the products listed and then click on the Install button.
5. Once the installation has completed successfully, it will display End of Installation. Click on Exit and confirm
to exit the installer.
To perform a silent installation requiring no user intervention:
1. Copy the response file template provided in the response directory where you unpacked the Patch
Set tar file.
2. Edit the values for all fields labeled as "<Value Required>" according to the comments and examples
in the template.
3. From the unzipped patchset installation area, start the installer by running the setup executable passing
as the last argument the full path of the response file template you have edited locally with your own
value of ORACLE_HOME and FROM_LOCATION:
setup.exe -silent -responseFile <full_path_to_your_response_file>
Post Install Actions
Execute these "Post Install Actions" only if you have one or more databases associated to the upgraded $ORACLE_HOME.
Important Notes
1: Java VM and XML DB Requirements
Users who have JVM (Java enabled) or JVM and XDB installed on their 9.2.0.1 databases should make sure that the init.ora parameters shared_pool_size and java_pool_size are each 150 MB or more before running the catpatch.sql upgrade script. Failure to do so could result in an unrecoverable memory failure during running of the script. Please note that JVM and XML DB was shipped as part of the default 9.2.0.1 seed database and will be present unless the user explicitly installed a 9.2.0.1 instance without them.
2: SYSTEM table space
If you have JServer installed in the database, you should check to be sure there is at least 10M of free space in the SYSTEM table space before running these actions.
3: Installing on Cluster Databases
If you are applying this patch set to a cluster database, then set the CLUSTER_DATABASE initialization parameter to false. After the post-install actions are completed, you must set this initialization parameter back to true.
To complete the installation of this patch set, you need to start up each database associated with the upgraded $ORACLE_HOME, start the database listener (e.g., lsnrctl start), login using SQL*Plus (e.g., sqlplus "/ as sysdba"), and run the following commands/scripts in order from $ORACLE_HOME within a MIGRATE session. If you are using the OLAP option, make sure that the database listener is up.
startup migrate
spool patch.log
@rdbms/admin/catpatch.sql
spool off
Review the patch.log file for errors and re-run the catpatch script after correcting any problems
shutdown
startup
This step is optional - it will recompile all invalid PL/SQL packages now rather than when accessed for the first time - you can also use utlrcmp.sql to parallelize this in multiprocessor machines:
@rdbms/admin/utlrp.sql
Execute the following if you use Oracle OLAP option:
alter user olapsys identified by <password> account unlock
connect olapsys/<password>
@cwmlite/admin/cwm2awmd.sql
exit
Execute the following script only if you have version 9.2.0.1.0 of Oracle Internet Directory installed in your ORACLE_HOME. Make sure that the database and database listener are running and that all parameters are specified prior to running the script:
$ORACLE_HOME/bin/oidpatchca.bat
-connect <Connect String>
-lsnrport <Listener Port>
-systempwd <SYSTEM Password>
-odspwd <ODS Password>
-sudn <Super-User DN>
-supwd <Super-User Password>
-dippwd <Password to register DIP Server>
Where:
connect - Database connect string
lsnrport - Database Listener port
systempwd - Password of the database 'SYSTEM' user
odspwd - Password of the database 'ODS' user
sudn - Super-user DN
supwd - Super-user Password
dippwd - New password to register Directory Integration Server. This password must conform to the password policy in the OID server
Execute the following steps only is you are using the RMAN catalog.:
rman catalog <user/passwd@alias>
upgrade catalog;
upgrade catalog;

I don't understand which instructions I have to make for oracle upgrade?
-- You have to follow all the instructions mentioned
(Just check for few if's for Cluster enabled, OID and OLAP databases. Perform these steps only if they apply)
Must I also make the 3. instruction? Connect to databse prior and drop?
-- Yes you should do
Must I also make the post install action for my database?
(startup migrate ...)
-- Yes. Do run catpatch.sql .
what means at post install actions the following:
'execute these post install actions only if you have one or more databases associated to the upgraded $oracle_homee.
-- In this step make sure you do step 1
1: Java VM and XML DB Requirements
Otherwise catpatch.sql will fail.
Do 2 and 3 only if applicable
Chandar
My database path is e:\oracle\oradata\database my oracle path is e:\oracle\ora92 have I in my case make the post install actions?

Error while appying patch set 4 (10.1.3.4.0) to oracle home (10.1.3.1.0 )

Hi,
I am trying to apply patch set 10g Release 3 (10.1.3) Patch Set 4 (10.1.3.4.0) to 10g Release 3 (10.1.3.1.0) oracle home. As the pre - installation steps describes I have run the script ‘upgrade_10131_10134_oracle.sql’ for both ESB and BPEL. Also we need to delete the line <data id="java-bin" value="/myhost/jdk1.4.2/bin/java" />from the ‘ORACLE_HOME/opmn/conf/opmn.xml’ file. But when I have checked that file, the line was not present there.
But when I am running the installer, it is showing error like
Error
--> Process (index=1,uid=418288051,pid=30220)
failed to start a managed process after the maximum retry limit
Log:
C:\Oracle\Soa_OFMPractice\SOATESTING\opmn\logs\\HTTP_Server~1.log

Does anybody know how to fix this problem?
Thanks & Regards,
Anju

There is a quick fix for this
There are 2 lines you need to comment form the c:/oracle/soa_ofmpractice/soatesting/apache/apache/conf/httpd.conf
A comment is done with a #
If you look in the C:\Oracle\Soa_OFMPractice\SOATESTING\opmn\logs\HTTP_Server~1.log file it will tell you.
Find the line that has apachemoduleossl in it. When you try and restart it will fail again the C:\Oracle\Soa_OFMPractice\SOATESTING\opmn\logs\HTTP_Server~1.log should tell you what line to comment
sorry can't be of much more help but dont have access to an environement at the moment.
cheers
