Installation Oracle8 Personal Edition to Win NT

Hi all,
Had encountered the following error ORA-12203:TNS: unable to connect to destination during my installation to Win NT at the last part.
Really had no idea on wat had gone wrong? Can someone enlighten me on it?
null

This error normally means that the Oracle listener (NT)service is not started.
Go to the start menu/settings /control panel
then choose services.
In the window check the status of the Oracle TNS listener service.
This should be 'started'.
Also check if startupup mode for the service is set to 'automatic'.This means that the service will be automatically started when you start windows up.(then you won't have to worry about this any more).
I hope that this is useful
regards David

  • Installing oracle8i personal edition on windows ME

    I am having a problem installing oracle8i personal edition on windows ME.
    The error on running the setup.exe was "jrew has caused an error in javai.dll. " A fix was reported on the internet for this , which is adding a line ": Jrew=0x00080000" to compatibility95 in the win.ini file. Appaarently this fix worked for few people, but it is making no difference for me.
    Please provide a solution for this. email:[email protected]

  • Installing Designer 6 on NT With Oracle8 Personal Edition

    According to the Designer 6 For Windows NT installation guide, I can have Personal Oracle 8.0.4 as a local database for use with Designer 6. However I am unable to successfully install these due to:
    1. Designer and the Pre-Configured Repository must reside in the default_home directory.
    2. The Pre-Configured Repository must reside in the same Oracle Home Directory as the local database - therefore Personal Oracle8 must reside in the default_home directory also.
    3. Designer needs the 8.0.5 required support files whereas Oracle8 Personal Edition needs the 8.0.4 required support files to work.
    Thus, is my problem. As I can not install both 8.0.4 and 8.0.5 support files into the same Oracle home, how can I get to use Designer 6 with a local 8.0.4 database on NT, as it suggests in the Designer installation guide?

    These are the steps .
    1. First Yout NT server must have Nt ver.4 with Service pack 5 built in
    2.All Y have to do is to Installed Web App
    Server on Different Physical location(With Oracle 8i) as different NT user with administrative privileges(Different from the user Y installed 8i RDBMS ).
    3. Set TNS_ADMIN parameter for NT Server.
    4.Set up the tnsname.ora and sqlnet.ora file
    on web app home ,(ie %ORACLE_HOME%\net80\admin ) as same as those on your Oracle DB HOme ,(ie %ORACLE_HOME%/network/admin )
    After this if You follow the installation guide ,Post installation task ,
    Every thing will work..
    Good luck ..

    Thanks. A couple of questions. Did you place the OAS in separate homes? If yes did you set enviromental variablesin System and user. Last Did you have to set the IP address in the winnt\system32\drivers\host.
    Still have not got it working. It seems to have installed. The node Listners is running. It could be a problem with my browser setup. Any ideas.
    Thanks JJ

  • Installing Oracle8i Personal Edition, Version 8.1.5 on Windows XP Pro

    I am trying to install Oracle8i Personal Edition, Version 8.1.5 on my system with Windows XP Pro on it.
    After copying the CD content to the Hard Drive and renaming symcjit.dll to symcjit_back.dll, and running the setup from the oracle folder on the C drive, I am having the following error message:
    " Invalid srttaging area. There are no top level components for Windows NT available for install from this satging area".
    Any clue?

    You may want to search the database forums or All forums categories first to see if this question is already answered. I see at least 6 threads in the database category level and 21 threads when I searched all categories for "invalid staging area." If you still do not the find the answer, please repost your question in the database forum.

  • Connecting to Oracle8 Personal Edition from Java

    Hi,
    I have Oracle8 Personal Edition installed on my system. I would like to connect to it using the java test program that comes with Oracle called Employee.java. Whenever I run the program (on the same machine as the database), I get an error message saying "Connection Refused". I am connecting to Oracle running locally using:
    Connection conn =
    DriverManager.getConnection ("jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:orcl",
                        "scott", "tiger");
    Does anybody know what is wrong?

    The problem is fixed. It did not work because I did not have a TNS listener running. Now it works fine.

  • Oracle8i Personal Edition

    Hi Everyone!
    I purchased the Oracle 8i CD Pack (Release3), which comes with 8i PE. The installation goes very well. However, when I try to setup the Network Configuration, it doesn't find anything! Even if I create the listner, etc. I recently noticed that the CD says NT/2000 on it, nothing about Windows 98. However, as I mentioned above, the installation works. Could it be that I have the wrong version and that is why the network part does not work? I have read all the problems people are having with the Win98 download version[\b], so I don't know if I want to go that route. Seems easier to install NT or 2000. Has anyone gotten their 98 PE to work yet? If so, how?

    Afaik, personal edition was/is only for Windows plateform.
    Nicolas.
    Go to http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/metalink/index.html
    Choose "...by Product", "Database...", "...Personal Edition", then you will see that is only Windows OS for which this edition was/is certified.

  • Install Personal Edition on Win 2K Prof

    I am trying to install Oracle Personal Edition 8i on a system using Windows 2000 Professional. I have installed the Forms and Reports 6i already. When I insert the Personal Edition CD and click the Install/Deinstall button, nothing happens. I have tried to run it from a DOS prompt also (as suggested by Oracle) but that does not work either. If anyone could share any information on this, I would really appreciate it.

    What version of Oracle are yoy trying to install , use 8i Ver 2 (8.1.6 ) or ver 3 (8.1.7 ) .
    Preferable use Oracle 9i , it has got a personal edition embeded in the Enterprise edition CD set OR you can just download the Just released Personal edition 9i.
    8i Ver. 1 (8.1.5) does not work on Windows 2000 , in cases the installer does not work at all or the installer runs but it sees no software source

  • Installation Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 3 (8.1.7.0.1)

    I has a Conectiva 8 Linux and did download of Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 3 (8.1.7.0.1) for Linux (Intel) of Oracle Site.
    I4m trying to follow the instructions of installation but i don4t know how set the DISPLAY. The runInstaller is in the path /home/usr/oracle/Disk1 and I will execute the runInstaller of server linux.
    The runInstaller quit after the installation of Java Runtime and didn4t display the Welcome Window.
    If anybody know how to do this, please help me!!!! because i need to access a remote DB Oracle from a linux/php web page.
    Thank you very much!

    On all the Linux system I have worked with the DISPLAY environmet variable is set as follows:
    If running install on server:
    DISPLAY=localhost:0.0; export DISPLAY
    If running install from remote system:
    DISPLAY={yourlocalsystemname}:0.0; export DISPLAY
    you may need to run "xhost +{yourlocalsystemname}" on the server as well.

  • Error installing Oracle 9i Database Enterprise/personal edition for win xp

    Hi,
    Not sure if anyone can help me, but I just finish downloading the
    Oracle Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP (32 bit)
    When I finished unzipping the 3 files into Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3 folders I tried running the setup.exe file but nothing happens.
    I am using windows XP as my operating system. Can anyone tell me why the setup is not working?
    Thank you.

    XP Professional, or XP Home?
    There are a lot of cases where people have tried and failed to install on XP Home. Also a few successes.
    Also, how is your firewall and anti-virus software configured. Those may be blocking your install process.

  • Oracle8i Personal Edition hangs with ora-12637

    I have tried to install Oracle8i for Windows 98 using the installation wizard. However, the database cannot be created because the configuration assistant cannot complete the job. When run as a batch file, each call to server manager receives a ora-12637 error. i have heard that you have to have Oracle8 installed, which I don't. Is this true? Where can I find it if I need it? It isn't in OTN that I can find anymore.
    TIA!

    Exactly which Windows OS are you using? WinME does not work.

  • Problems installing Oracle8i Personal Edition

    Please help i have windows Me and i just purchased and oracle tool kit for my course which i am takig in school. the cd that i have is Version 8.1.5 for windows 98 is there a win me version becuase it don't want to install on my PC
    thanks

    There4s no version of Personal 8i for Windows ME. However, you can install this version in your system. Before you do this, modify your WIN.INI file, in section [Compatibility95], adding : Jrew=0x00080000. Reboot your system and try to install. Hope that helps you. Good luck.
