  • Problem installing Oracle 11g on Windows XP Professional SP2

    I removed my Oracle 10g express from my XP Professional according the
    the blog at
    http://aricsblog.blogspot.com/2005/08/uninstalling-oracle-10g-manually-from.html
    Then I downloaded win32_11gR1_database.zip (1824539KB) from oracle and
    unzipped it.
    If I click either setup.exe or oui.exe, a dos console pops up and
    shows the following:

    It hangs there for about 1 minute and disappears, and nothing
    happens. Tried it a few times, and every time it was the same
    behavior.
    Am I missing anything critical? How can I install 11g on XP Pro?
    Thank you very much.

    Hav you checked you have enough swap space?I had the same issue when I tried installing Forms Developer.

  • About memory issue during installing Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2003

    Hi, all
    When I installed Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2003 which the server is a virtual server, Oracle only can detect 2G memory.
    But there are 4G memory with my server.
    I want to know if the Oracle 11g's new feature or the virtual server lead the issue.
    Also , I want to get your help to resolve the issue, thanks a lot.

    Let me get this straight:
    You have created some virtual machine using someone's unknown VM software.
    You have installed Windows Server 2003 (perhaps, but not confirmed 32-bit) to that VM.
    You have allocated 4GB of memory to the VM (we guess ... not sure I'm ready to take your word on this)
    You are attempting to install Oracle 11g (presumably 11gR1 32 bit for Windows) in the VM
    And the Oracle (installer?) seems to be reporting that you only have 2GB RAM.
    Since I personally have installed Oracle 11g 32bit for Windows on Windows 2003 server with 4GB RAM and had no issues, I would be investigating the (unknown) VM environment.

    Do you have any specific issues with your installation? I don't see why you shouldn't be able to install Oracle 11g on Windows 7. Found a quick blog post for you:

    kindly note that i am new to oracle and having a issue that i cant seem to figure out and hoping a experienced person can answer this.
    i download oracle 11g for windows 32 bit on my laptop, go through the installation and use the option to crate a starter database.
    meet all the pre- req and every thing goes smooth. database gets created, use sqlplus to connect ot the database also open the enterprise manager and and also see the GUI after logging in.
    now what happens it works fine for a day or some times two and when i reboot the machine and go back and try to open the EM its gives me the error cant find the URL. i have tried it few times and it happens every time. i don't know what i am doing it wrong but for some reason the EM manager doesn't work . i can still log on the database using the sqlplus.
    must thing must get changed ( may be the IP address or env some how). i really appreciate if some one can guide me in the right path.
    Thanks in advance.

    Thanks for the response,
    well the laptop i am using is a work computer , i installed oracle so i can practice on it.. i Think the IP changes after a while. is that the reason?.. how can i remedy it do my EM works all the time?
    Please advice.

  • Install Oracle 11g on window 7 but unable to login to sql developer.

    I have installed Oracle 11g from Oracle site but once oracle has been installed I am unable maintain connection as a New user in Sql developer.
    Although while installing I have kept both the password blank but when i am login to it keeping User name and password as blank it says as Invalid username/password.
    And same is the case with Sql plus it says your password has been locked but suggest any suggestive reasons for that.

  • How to Install Oracle 11g on Windows Vista

    Hi Everyone, this is Abhinay here i am a Graduate Student from Electronics and i am planning to shift to CS background the main thing i want to know from you guys is " A structured procedure of Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Vista"- So can any one of you guys help me out??????????

    Hi, how are you doing ?
    Just one advice about it. If you want to work with Oracle databases, it will be better to install it on certified OS's. Doing so, you will get better experience and more realistic experience on it.
    Following the Oracle database documentation, you will get all that you need to successfully install the database in the certified OS.

  • Problem in installing Oracle 9i on Windows XP professional

    I have completed a fresh installation of Windows Xp professional on my machine. The machine configuration is 261 RAM with 10 GB hard disk with NTFS partition and IE 6.
    When I tried to install Oracle 9i Client on my machine, it gives me the following error:
    The Java Runtime environment was not found at C;|Documents and Settings\Program Files\....\jrew.exe. Hence, the ORacle universal installer could not run.
    Plz help!

    Down the Java Runtime from Sun
    That might solve it :)
    If I recall, Java Runtime is not shipped with XP

    Hi,
    you have two option to start your oracle service. your problem is your oracle serivce is not start.
    for that you can start manully....
    like
    on command prompt.
    cmd>net start oracleservice<sid>
    or
    you can set automatic for oracle service.
    go services window. start >>>> run >>>> services.msc <<<enter>>>
    check and select oracle services and right click and set automatic..
    every time your system is reboot then oracle service is automatically is start.
    regards

    can any one help me out uninstalling oracle 11g completely from windows?
    anyone's help would be greatly appreciated, hope will get out of this mess
    Thanks a lot in advanced
    Chowdary

    yes, I know that I have installed OBIEE and those services related to OBIEE
    my main objective is to install OBIEE and for that I got to install oracle database, I did install both database and OBIEE then I didn't find any database to use for OBIEE (silly right :P). yes, that is true and I'm lost
    what to do now?
    Found easy way is re-installing, I tried uninstalling both and not sure whether database was deleted or not, the same case with OBIEE
    what I'm asking you is, "HOW TO ENSURE THAT I HAVE NO ORACLE DATABASE ON MY SYSTEM?"
    Don't take me the other-way, I'm very new with Oracle products

  • Re: Install Oracle 11g on windows 7 Home Premium?

    Can any one let me know whether windows 7 home premium supports oracle 11g 32bit version?

    Welcome to the forums !
    No - Home versions of Win are not supported for any Oracle installs. One option you have is to create a Linux VM on your Win 7 machine and then install 11gR2 in the Linux VM - pl see my blog (linked in my profile) for detailed steps

  • Error message when installing Oracle 10g on Windows XP Professional

    Hello,
    I need help installing oracle 10g database. When I attempt to run the installation from the setup.exe icon, I get a message that says
    "Error in writing to directory C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\OraInstall2007-04-29_01-19-29PM. Please ensure this directory is writable and has atleast 45Mb of disk space. Installation cannot continue."
    When I try to open the installation from the Autorun icon, it points to an innability to find setup.exe and when I go back to Setup.exe, it gives me the above error. Everytime I try to run the installation and it fails, the installation leaves a folder in my Temp folder with the above format. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

    I do have administrative privilege on my computer and I have plenty of space. I have 80gb of free space. What do I do to successfully install the software without incurring those messages I displayed in my first thread?
