Installing oracle 8i on windows server 2008

hi all,
is it possible to install oracle 8i database standard edition on windows 2008 server?
i'm starting the instalation and almost in the end of it when it suppose to ask me to configure net8 it freez.
i have tns error ora- 12560 TNS-protocol adapter error
i'll be glad if anybody has answers,

I wouldn't have a clue whether it is possible. Want to ask a different question? Whether if you ever succeeded it would be supported or stable? The answer is No.
Oracle 8i is so old it hasn't been supported during the current decade, the current century, the current millennium.
If you are going to install anything do not go further back than 10.2.0.4 or you are just wasting your time.

  • I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Windows Server 2008

    Hi
    I am trying to install Oracle 9i on Windows Server 2008.
    While installing third CD it shows the following error message
    "jrew.exe has stopped working"
    Please guide me what to do next as early as possible.
    Thanks

    Why?
    The general policy of Oracle is very simple:
    it certifies against the current version of the OS.
    It never re-certifies against new releases of the OS.
    Windows 2008 didn't exist when Oracle 9i was released.

  • Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2008

    Hi,
    I want to install Oracle 10g on Windows Server 2008. As per Oracle, I should install 10.2.0.3 and then apply patchset 10.2.0.4.
    For that, one has to sign in to metalink which is possible only for customers. I am
    using Oracle only for educational purposes for now. Is there any other way of using Oracle 10g on Windows 2008?
    Thanks,
    Vladi

    Of course if you don't have support and for educational purpose only , you should compromise a little by either install other OS or get virtual machine like VMware.
    Or stay with 10.2.0.3, that should work in most cases.

    please if any one can give me any solution to run my database console. i don't know any method. i'm new to the oracle.
    Thank you

    I have checked that. but i also say that oracle 10g (10.2.0.4 ) support for windows server 2008 r2 X64.
    Windows Server 2008 x64
    Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4 or later) for Windows x64 is certified on Windows Server 2008 x64 (all editions). 32-bit Oracle Database Client (10.2.0.4) and higher versions are supported on Windows Server 2008 x64.
    I don'y think it's problem of os version or oracle version. Because when we purchase we asked from them what is the recommended version for our os. they told that 10g 10.2.0.4 is ok. previously i have installed this successfully. But now i can't.
    however thanks for tried to help me. if u can find out any other reason\s please late me know..
    thank you very much.

  • How to install Oracle Instantclient on Windows Server 2008 Web Edition

    I am trying to install the Oracle Instantclient on our Windows Web server (x64).
    * I downloaded instantclient-basic-win-x86-64-11.1.0.7.0
    * Extracted to c:\instantclient
    * appended the directory to the path
    * created system variable 'SQL_PATH' with same path
    * gave everyone all rights to the instantclient folder
    * gave network service explicitly all rights to the instantclient folder
    * rebooted IIS
    * rebooted the server
    But still my application keeps returning with System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.
    What am i missing/doing wrong? It seems i have mixed and merged all possible solutions which Google would return.

    Since System.Data.OracleClient is a Microsoft library, you'd better ask them.
    Or use Oracle's provider:

  • Installing Oracle 9i on Win Server 2008

    Hello all,
    I just wanted to know that is it possible to install Oracle 9i on Windows Server 2008.. is it supported on server 2008..
    i surfed the internet to get more information about this and what i got was that Oracle 9i is not supported on 2008..
    is it so... and that means i need to install higher version of Oracle on Windows Server 2008.. ??
    Thanks & Regards

    Jr Oracle DBA

    Pratik,
    I am just copy the reply by Sybrand Sir :
    Oracle 9iR2 was desupported on July 31,2007
    Windows 2008 was released in 2008.
    Oracle never (re-) certifies for new versions of any O/S
    Please upgrade to Oracle 10gR2 (preferred) or downgrade your server to XP or 2003.
    Sorry, but you have no other choice.

  • Oracle R12 on Windows Server 2008

    Hi - does anyone have a good guide or link to a site that does a walk through of installing Oracle R12 on Windows Server 2008?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Thanks for the guide, anyone with experience in Windows, do you know if the Server goes to sleep, that once it is woken up, that the R12 instance would work fine? I think the application will not be accessible when the server does to sleep.
    I would ideally like to let the Server go to "Sleep" when not in use. Once a user wants to test something, they can wake it up using WOL, then login to the instance.What is the point of letting the server goes to sleep? I would say that you may need to bounce some services then which is not a feasible solution -- You may verify this and try it yourself.
    Regards,
    Hussein

    Trouble installing Weblogic 12 on windows server 2008 ,i have oracle 11g databse in the same system.Now i am trying to install Oracle Weblogic 12 ,but WLS requires JDK 1.6 as a minimum ,after i install the Oracle11g database it automatically installed the Jdk 1.5 ..now how can i go about and install Weblogic 12 .

  • Problems installing OBIEE 11g on Windows Server 2008 64 bit

    Hi, I'm trying to install OBIEE 11g on Windows Server 2008 64 bit (standard edition, SP2), and it's blowing up running the installer. The installer gets past the first couple of "info" screens, but blows up prior to coming to the first "real" screen with an error:
    Microsoft Visual C++ Assertion Failed:
    Program: ...
    File: ../../../src/share/native/sun/font/t2k/t2kstrm.c
    Line: 132
    Expression: pos <= t->maxPos
    Has anyone seen this and/or have an idea how to work around this? Note that I did do the prerequisite download / install of the 2005 Visual C++ 64 bit libraries.
    Thanks,
    Scott

    Just to close the loop on this thread, this does indeed seem to be some sort of font / java issue on our servers. I've been completely unable to get the install to work using the GUI. However, if I run it from command line using the -silent and -response paramaters along with a proper response file, the install went perfectly. I'm going to continue working the SR with Oracle - don't want to be stuck using -silent mode when things get more complicated, but at least now I can move forward.
    If anyone else has a better workaround - please let me know. "Silent" mode is workable, but difficult and time consuming.
    Thanks,
    Scott

  • Unable to install SCCM client on Windows Server 2008 R2 - certificate permission error?

    I am trying to comply with corporate policy, which is, have an SCCM agent or client on every Windows device. I have successfully used the provided SCCM installer on other Windows 2008 R2 servers. However for one particular server I cannot get the SCCM agent
    to install successfully. I've searched forums and documentation, but can't find a solution. Part of the problem is the lack of feedback by SCCM on what is wrong. I think I have narrowed down the symptom to the following error messages from the "C:\Windows\CCM\Logs\ClientIDManagerStartup.log":
    [LOG[Certificate [Thumbprint C559304C1598F17641D0732EB9EB787169A25FA7] issued to 'SMS' doesn't have private key or caller doesn't have access to private key.

    When I use the Certificates MMC snap in to look at installed certs on this Windows Server 2008 R2 machine, there are plenty of normal and expected certificates there. There is also a branch called SMS with hundreds of entries, I have no idea what that is.
    The above error seems to indicate a permissions issue. What do I do to fix this SCCM install? It seems like a server cert issue, not an SCCM issue, so I'm posting to the Windows Server forums.
    Thanks in advance.

  • Can I install Acrobat in a Windows Server 2008 for many users?

    I'm looking for a solution for my enterprise to install Adobe Acrobat in Windows Server 2008 R2, where the users connect by remote desktop. I'm looking for a form for they use Acrobat by the same form they uses now Reader. But not for all, only for some of this users.
    I called a responsible and he told me that I can install Acrobat for some users in Windows Server 2008 R2, but I'm not sure if that solution will be legal.
    Can I buy a special license for it or I have to buy a license for each user? How can I proceed to do this, if it's possible?
    Thanks in advance for you attention!

    Use a mozilla.cfg file in the Firefox program folder to lock prefs or specify default values.
    Place a file local-settings.js in the defaults\pref folder where you also find the file channel-prefs.js to specify using mozilla.cfg.
    pref("general.config.filename", "mozilla.cfg");
    pref("general.config.obscure_value", 0); // use this to disable the byte-shift
    See:
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences
    You can use these functions in mozilla.cfg:
    defaultPref(); // set new default value
    pref(); // set pref, but allow changes in current session
    lockPref(); // lock pref, disallow changes
    <pre><nowiki>lockPref("app.update.enabled", false);</nowiki></pre>
