Installing oracle 9i with 10g database installed , what do you suggest ?

hi guys,
i have just installed oracle 10g on my WINDOWS XP machine
Checked the registry , the
oracle base
and oracle home values are as following
oracle_base - c:\oracle\product\10.2.0
oracle_home - c:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db1
the values are correct according to what the oracle documentation has said.
now i would like to install oracle 9i on my windows XP machine as well and i would like both the 9i and 10g database to have the same ORACLE_BASE, different HOMES as what the OFA is capabable of providing.
However, i cant adopt the naming practise of oracle_base in 10g, as , IF i set the oracle_base of 9i to
c:\oracle\product\9.2.0 - then i would have 2 different oracle_base which is wrong
1) c:\oracle\product\9.2.0
2) c:\oracle\product\10.2.0
SO i have to set the oracle_base of BOTH the DB to
1) c:\oracle\product
to have them both having the same ORACLE_BASE.
what do you guys suggest ? or is there any impact ?
or should i just stick to 2 different base and 2 different homes.
Thanks guys.

Set ORACLE_BASE to \oracle\product
Then set the individual homes at the db_1 level.

  • How to install Oracle text in 10g database.

    Hi ,
    I need to install Oracle text in a 10g database which is a pre-requisite for Application express 3.1.1.I checked for the user CTXSYS user in the database and i did not find that.
    Thanks in advance

    If you dont see CTXSYS user, you have to use the OUI to install the Oracle text. You have to connect as sys to do it. See the metalink post below,

  • My MacBook Pro won't charge when I plug it in. the green or orange light won't even turn on. The computer is dead already, so I cannot mess with my settings. What do you suggest?

    I have a Mac Book Pro with the serial number: C0*******TY3 and the model no: A1278. I wanted to charge it this morning, and it won't charge meaning that the light even won't turn on, and also my computer is dead, so I cannot change anything on the system preferences. What should I do? I will make an appointment at the Genius Bar, but what do you thing the problem is here?
    <Edited By Host>

    First see the MagSafe troubleshooting tips:Apple Portables: Troubleshooting MagSafe adapters and check to see that all looks ok.  You might want to try using another charger in case the charger is faulty.  If that doesn't help, take the MacBook Pro and charger to an Apple store genius bar and have the technicians test the system to see where the fault is.

  • 10g Database install with NAS

    hi,
    how can i install and configure a 10g database on windows using Network Accessed Storage(NAS).
    i need to store the db software, default tablespaces (system, sysaux etc.) on a server (with windows server 2003), and use the NAS to store data. i've done this using the traditional file structure for tablespaces, but i want to use the automated storage management(ASM) functionality as well.
    i'd appreciate any help or suggestions.

    pls tell how to connect oracle 9i or 10g database with oracle developer suite 10g . though the forms are getting connected but not running with error as
    FRM-10142 the HTTP listner is not running on pls start the listner or check your runtime preferences.
    now pls tell how to start listner and how to chage runtime preferences.
    though i have worked with oracle 9i and forms 6i where we used to copy the tnsnames.ora from network/admin of oracle to forms 6i tnsnames.ora.
    thank you, you may be thinking such a long question.....

    sir
    By server i mean the computer where oc4j and backend database are running is one one of the client pc not a dedicated server..., these database and 10g dev suite are installed in one of the client machine,
    all the clients are using same internet explorer as browser.
    no message is being displyed on some of the client machine where these forms are not being uploaded on browser instead it displays as done in status bar without actually showing anything at all...
    sir so far as jinitiator or JRE is concered i have seen on the client machine (where my forms are running on internet explorer) a pop up is displyed telling one activex control is required to run this program and click to install it..
    after clicking it download jinitiator from server and after installing jinitiator my forms are loaded and start functioning...
    what i feel is as i said this machine where oc4j and database is running is one of the client machine so some other clients do not have acess to this machine, so this might be the reason why those clints are not able to run the said forms on the internet explorer.... can it be so... kindly tell..
    thank you for your patience for reading the question

    Said that OAS 10.1.2.0.2 is desupported, you have to apply patch 10.1.2.3 to be fully certified on OEL/RHEL 5.

  • Problems installing Oracle Developer Suite 10g in windows 7

    Hi Experts;
    I have installed Oracle Developer Suite 10g in windows XP, but now I change to windows 7, 64 bits, I was trying to install this product and I'm having a lot of problems, apparently this product is not compatible with windows 7.
    My question is, is there any product, like Oracle Developer Suite 10g for windows 7? I was looking for in the Oracle page, and  I couldn't see anything, may be the name is diferent.
    Thanks for your help.
    Al

    First off, Oracle Developer Suite (ODS) 10g is no longer supported so Oracle has discontinued improving the product.  While ODS is not certified by Oracle for use on Windows 7 (32 or 64 bit), you can install and use on Windows 7 (32/64 bit).  This is a commonly asked question so a search of the forum would have given you several solutions.
    The limitations of the Oracle installer are:
    1.  You must have Administrator rights to install.
    2.  Windows 7 is not a supported version (it's version 6 and it is looking for version 5), so the installer exits.
    3.  It's unable to recognize Windows Managed virtual memory.
    To get around these limitations you must do the following:
    1.  Modify your Virtual Memory settings and define a specific Min and Max amount.   Look at this MS article if you need help making this change: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/change-the-size-of-virtual-memory
    2.  You must run the Oracle installer in compatibility mode for Windows XP.  To do this,
      - Right-click on the setup.exe and select the Compatibility tab and click "Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP2"
    3.  While still in the properties and the compatibility tab, select the option, "Run as Administrator" and click OK.
    Now run the Oracle setup.exe and your installation should succeed.

  • Unable to install Oracle Developer Suite 10g on Windows 7

    Hello,
    I'm getting the following error message when using OUI on the Specify File Locations screen after providing source and destination:
    Invalid staging area. There are no top level components for Windows NT, Windows 2000 available for installation in this staging area.
    Anyone else have this happen while trying to install? I see that a few people have been successful in getting it installed. The destination was provided by default as C:\Program Files\Oracle\Inventory.
    Any help would be appreciated - thanks in advance.

    The Oracle Developer Suite (ODS) 10g is now certified by Oracle for installation on Windows 7 (32-bit). For installation steps, I recommend you take a look at My Oracle Support article: *How to Install Oracle Developer Suite 10g (10.1.2) on Windows 7 (32-bit) [ID 1292919.1]*. There is no need to run the XP-Mode (Virtual PC) of Windows 7 in order to install and use ODS on Windows 7.
    Invalid staging area. There are no top level components for Windows NT, Windows 2000 available for installation in this staging area.This error could be caused by many things. I've seen two. The first (as I recall) was caused by an issue with one of the files in the Inventory directory. We were able to get around the issue by deleting a file (I'm sorry, but I don't recall which file or if we simply deleted the directory). I recommend you check with Oracle Support before you delete any files or the directory, however.
    The other issue I've seen cause this is "spaces" in the directory path to the installer. This was the most common cause that I've seen. Make sure there are no spaces in the directory path where the installer is located.
    Hope this helps,
    Craig B-)
    If someone's response is helpful or correct, please mark it accordingly.

    Increase your Windows paging file by going to Control Panel->System->Advanced(tab)->Performance Settings(button)->Advanced(tab)->Virtual Memory. Change the Initial size to be at least 1535MB.
