Installing Oracle 9i Personal

I downloaded Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP. But the setup.exe will not run. Does anyone know what is wrong?

Hi There,
I've installed it a couple of times on XP.
What do mean setup.exe does not run. It suppose to startup with autorun on a CD, or are you running it as disk 1/2/3 from the HDD
Is it a clean install? or a upgrade ?
What is your operating system?
Cheers
Rudy

  • Problems facing while installing Oracle 8i personal edition under win98se

    hello,
    I am having problems while installing Oracle 8i personal edition
    under win98se.
    I am stuck on the creation of database. it always stuck at 85%.
    I've try installed many many times.. but it still the same..
    what can i do?
    i am using win98 se.
    is there any solution for this problems?
    thanks~!

    Under Win 98SE (Personal Oracle 8i)creation of database - very
    long. Therefore choose a mode of creation of base - copy from CD.
    Then the base can be increased.

  • Cannot install Oracle 8i (Personal Edition) 8.1.7 on Windows 98 (Second Edition)

    Hello,
    I am unable to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition on my Windows 98 (Second Edition) system. I have selected "typical" install. All the files get installed (100% complete) but then the Configuration Tool install phase fails to complete when installing Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. I get the following error message :
    java.lang.NullpointerException
    at DropOracle.QueryDB(Compiled Code)
    at DeletePanel.InitControls(Compiled Code)
    at DeletePanel.<init>(DeletePanel.java:100)
    at DBCreateWizard.<init>(DBCReateWizard.java:569)
    at DBCreateWizard.main(DBCreateWizard.java:1422)
    The system just hangs with the "in progress" message.
    The previous step -
    The Net8 Configuration Assistant install completes successfully
    (return code 0).
    If anyone can help me resolve my problem it will be greatly appreciated.
    Or if you could tell me which Oracle email address (or phone number) I should address my problem to it will be appreciated. I do NOT have a Oracle Support Licence (I only purchased the evaluation CD pack).
    I have installed Java 2 (JDK 1.3) in a separate directory - but I understand Oracle 8i has its own version of JRE 1.1... in its own subdirectory structure ... so my JDK 1.3 should not be interfering with the Oracle 8i installation programs.
    Many thanks in advance.

    What is your RAM? I ran into the same problem, even though I had more RAM then required. I had to shutdown everything, make a very basic wallpaper that did not put too much strain on the system, then it installed.
    Unistall Oracle, remove all the remaining files and the directory by hand. Also you have to remove any trace of Oracle in your regedit. Check if path to Oracle is still in autoexec.bat; if it is delete it - the Oracle path not the file. Reboot and then do Alt-Ctr-Del and turn off all the unecessary programs and try installing it again.
    Hope it works.

  • Installing Oracle 10g personal edition

    Hi,
    I am trying to install Oracle 10g personal edition on ubuntu. After installing I ran the following command: /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure and by mistake gave a port number for HTTP port on which already another server is running. But now I am unable to change my configuration settings.
    Everytime I give the command /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure it says "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition is already configured"
    How can I change the configuration setting now? Do I need to reinstall it? Would be a great help, if somebody can tell me.
    Thanks,
    tulip

  • OCX errors went installing Oracle 8i personal edition

    I downloaded the zip for 8i personal edition. When trying to install it I repeatedly got errors that the OCX could not be registered. Can someone tell me how to correct this?

    It is not possible installing Oracle in WINDOWS ME platform, because this won't support for ORACLE. Unfortunately ORACLE also have no version for WINDOWS ME. If possible, upgrade your OS to WINDOWS 2000 or downgrade to WINDOWS 98 and try it.

    Vista has some serious architecture differences that Oracle is working on. The current 9i.10g databases won't work. I got around the error you say, but then the installer just bombs out.

  • Installing Oracle 8i Personal Edition in Win98

    Hi,
    Would like to find out if there is any issue in installing Oracle 8i Personnal Edition in windows ME.
    I have this error message when I tried to install the programme.
    "Jrew has caused an error in JAVAI.DLL. Jrew will now close."
    Anyone can help ??
    Thanks a million... :)

    It won't work on ME. Look back in the discussion forum about a month ago, some people wrote in about how you might change your registry to get it to work. Didn't work on my system though. Good luck!

  • Installing Oracle 8i Personal Edition on Home Computer

    I'm installing Oracle 8i from CD included in SQL text book.

  • Installing Oracle 9i Personal Edition on XP

    Hi, I am trying to install 9i Personal Edition on my Dell PC running XP. It gets 2% complete and gives me an error "Invalid Staging Area. There are no top level components for Windows NT for installion in this staging area." Another problem is that I am accessing our other oracle databases from this desktop and after this install fails it screws up my registry entries so bad that none of my montoring tools work and I have to manually fix it. Any suggestions?

    Do you have any oracle products currently installed?

  • Receiving error when trying to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition

    I'm trying to install 8i personal edition, and the installer is attempting to use this file as the stage file: D:\stage\products.jar. I can only assume its corrupt. Can anyone help me?
    Steve

    The error message I get on the install is, "INVALID STAGING AREA. NO TOP LEVEL COMPONENTS FOR WINDOWS 95 AVAILABLE FOR INSTALL." The install is using C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\INSTALL\STAGE\ PRODUCTS.JAR, which is where the UNZIP placed the components. The 8i Personal Edition I downloaded was for Windows 98, so I don't understand why it's looking for Windows 95 components. Also, I have Windows ME, not Windows 98, but I assume this download should work for Windows ME?
