Installing and Learning Oracle 11i

I would like to install and learn Oracle on a personal basis. I have a PC with Windows 2000 Professional. Can Oracle 11i be installed on that? Or does it require Windows server?
Does Oracle DB, in order to run Oracle Apps also come with e-business suite, when you download from edelivery.oracle.com?
I am planning to install it on an external hard drive (My PC's internal hard drive is only 20GB). My PC is only having 256MB RAM and would be connecting to the external hard drive via a USB port (not USB2.0). Does anyone know, if I can run Oracle Apps on this configuration in a single user mode, with reasonable performance?
I am not an Apps DBA. Is it easy to install Oracle Apps on a PC?
Thanks
Mukesh

heres the check list...
- U can isntall it on Win2K pro.
- U cannot make it work with 256 MB RAM.. tooo less.. I have 1.5 GB with ok performance.
- U can actually install the stuff on the external HDD as long as it has a drive letter assigned to it.
- 60 GB external HDD is just bare min. to install and run Apps 11i. consider anything like 80 GB+. I prrefer atleast 2-3 HDD to span App Server, DB server etc.
- USB 1.1/1.0 is tooo slow to give any kind of performance.
Consider following requirements:
1. PC with atleast 1 GHz Processor
2. 1 GB RAM at least. ( I tried with 512 initially but had all sort of problems).
3. U can install it on any of Win2K, Win XP and I can show how to do it. Currently have it on XP Pro SP2.
4. Min 80 GB HDD if u plan to install Vision Demo Database or otherwise u wont understand a thing.
5. atleast 1-2 days dedicated to installation with Internet connection.
6. VC++ and MKS toolkit are other requirements, so have them before u attempt to install.
7.... most important... lost of "GUD LUCK" wishes.
gud luck.

  • How to install and configure oracle secure backup(osb-10.4.0.3.0_linux.x64) in linux

    Hello,
    We are planning to install and configure Oracle Secure Backup Version 10.4 in Linux server. I had searched documents and i have not find any relevant steps to install and configure in OEL 6.2.
    Can anyone please suggest me how to install and configure OSB.
    Regards,
    Anil

    Hi
    Installing OSB on Oracle Linux is just the same as installing on any other supported linux and is described in Installation and Configuration guide. Just stick with the directories and procedure described in install guide and you should be fine.
    For media server choose a physical host due to performance considerations. I think it is mentioned in docs somewhere.

  • How to Install and deploy Oracle Discoverer in Oracle AppServer 10.1.3.2

    I need to know how to install and deploy Oracle Discoverer in Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.2?

    Hi
    Discoverer doesn't install into OAS 10.1.3.2. It uses 10.1.2.1 or 10.1.2.2.
    When you install Discoverer it installs its own OAS components.
    Best wishes

  • How to install and use oracle schemas

    Hi,
    I am trying to prepare for Oracle PL/SQL Developer Associate Exams. I need to download and use Oracle sample schemas like oe, etc. and I don't know how.
    I have the following on my PC:
    Oracle® Database Express Edition 10g Release 2 (with the HR schema)
    Oracle Sql Developer 2.1.0.63 (already connected to the HR schema)
    Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2 (mainly used to connect to work databases )
    Can someone please guide me here....
    Thank you....

    Did you check what are the existing schema you have other than HR from Enterprise Management Console?
    If you install your DB in default with sample DBs - you should have these schema already into your machine. They may be locked. That's why you are unable to use them.
    Unlock the schema and try it again.
    From sys,
    alter user oe account unlock;
    alter user oe identified by oe;This should work for you.
    Regards.

  • How to install and configure Oracle 10g Express Edition on Fedora 11?

    Hi everyone!
    I have recently installed Oracle 10g XE on my Laptop Gateway T-1625, which has Fedora 11.
    I followed the install instructions on [http://st-curriculum.oracle.com/tutorial/DBXETutorial/index.htm] , and configured the server as explained, but something is wrong... When I try to go to the database home page http://127.0.0.1:8080/apex, I get "Failed to Connect" on Firefox 3.5b4... I don't think it's because of the Firefox version because it's proved to be very stable (for a beta).
    I've search for similar issues on GNU/Linux and I found this thread in these forums: [ http://forums.oracle.com/forums/thread.jspa?threadID=915218&tstart=0] , but the solution is for Ubuntu 9.04, and if it's possible I would like to know a specific solution for Fedora 11.
    I also tried to see the oracle server status with:
    # /etc/init.d/oracle-xe status
    And I got this....
    LSNRCTL for Linux: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on 25-JUN-2009 22:10:31

    Hi again!
    After your last post I realized that the dba group and the oracle user already existed.
    #groupadd dba
    groupadd: group dba exists
    #useradd oracle -d /home/oracle -s /bin/bash -g dba
    useradd: user oracle existsHowever, I finally assigned a password for that account and changed the ownership of the /usr/lib/oracle/xe
    with the commands you suggested:
    passwd oracle
    chown -R oracle:dba /usr/lib/oracle/xeAfter this, I can log in as the oracle user but the SELinux showed a warning and the /usr/lib/oracle/xe
    is treated as the oracle home, and no .bashrc file is located on this home. This is the SELinux warning:
    SELinux is preventing gdm-session-wor (xdm_t) "write" to /usr/lib/oracle/xe (lib_t).
    Details:
    SELinux denied access requested by gdm-session-wor. /usr/lib/oracle/xe may
    be a mislabeled. /usr/lib/oracle/xe default SELinux type is user_home_dir_t, but its
    current type is lib_t. Changing this file back to the default type, may fix your problem.
    File contexts can be assigned to a file in the following ways.
      * Files created in a directory receive the file context of the parent
        directory by default.
      * The SELinux policy might override the default label inherited from the parent directory
    by specifying a process running in context A which creates a file in a directory
    labeled B will instead create the file with label C.
        An example of this would be the dhcp client running with the dhclient_t type and
    creates a file in the directory /etc. This file would normally receive the etc_t type due
    to parental inheritance but instead the file is labeled with the net_conf_t type
    because the SELinux policy specifies this.
      * Users can change the file context on a file using tools such as chcon, or restorecon.
    This file could have been mislabeled either by user error, or if an normally confined
    application was run under the wrong domain.
    However, this might also indicate a bug in SELinux because the file should not have
    been labeled with this type.
    If you believe this is a bug, please file a bug report (http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/enter_bug.cgi)
    against this package.
    Allowing Acces:
    You can restore the default system context to this file by executing the restorecon command.
    restorecon '/usr/lib/oracle/xe', if this file is a directory, you can recursively restore using
    restorecon -R '/usr/lib/oracle/xe'.
    Fix command:
    restorecon '/usr/lib/oracle/xe'I suppose the command #useradd oracle -d /home/oracle -s /bin/bash -g dba is where I can define the user's home, but if this user already exists how can I modify its settings?
    is SELinux preventing the .bashrc file to be created? or what could be causing this?.
    I hope you know how much I appreciate your help and want to thank you for your time.

  • Install and configure Oracle AS 10g Business Intelligence Comp with SSO

    Hi,
    Present setup:
    We have a Red hat Linux 3.0 ES (update 4).
    Netgrity from Site minder installed over windows server for signle sign on.
    Oracle 9i release 2 database on a separate Windows server
    What i need:
    I want to install Oracle Application Sever Business Intelligence Components 10G over the linux and configure with Netegrity Single Sign on. I am not clear what is the installation process and what is the sequence of installation and configuration.
    Can anyone help me with the Installation process and sequence.
    What should be the sequence is it like below ?
    1) first install the Oracle AS 10g Infrastructure over the Linux
    2) Secondly install the Oracle Application Sever Business Intelligence Components 10G and integrate with Infrastructure
    3) Configure with SSO
    or only install the Oracle Application Sever Business Intelligence Components 10G and Configure with SSO is enough ?
    Any help in the installation process and sequence of instlallation and how to configure for external single Sign on.
    Thanks..

    When you want to have SSO you definitly need the infrastructure as the SSO is managed in there.
    So first install the infrastructure, then the middle tier (BI components) and then configure the SSO for the BI components.
    When this is up and running you have to configure the integration with the SiteMinder. Check out the OID admin guide and the SSO admin guide.
