Installing Oracle on windows XP

hi frens
I have just installed the trial version of oracle 10g in my machine with OS windows XP.
I have finished installing however I cannot access the database.
During installation, I just put the password (in the Universal installlation wizard), tending to use the username as sys.
On the browser window that follows after the installation (http//hostname:port/em) I have put the user name and Password (the windows one) and then the user name (sys) and the password ( the one I set in the universal installation wizard).
Then It shows the error " The Network Adapter could not establish the connection"
can anybody tell me how can I access the database?
The interesting thing is that, I had put 4 digits password for both the OS and the Oracle but after the execution, it comes up with 10 digits password. I am bit surprised if there is obligation regarding the length of password.
Many thanks
sudeep

i cannot help but think if your windows xp installation have a working network adapter

Install oracle in Windows ME

I tried to install oracle 8i personal version to my system which has Windows ME. However,it just kick me out. Is there any way I can install oracle to Windows ME?

We installed yesterday Personal 8.1.7 for Win 9x on Windows ME (and also Developer 6) and it did work. We did no move the registry (did not know about it).
We did a typical installation

I had the same question and this is what I found on the next page(s):
You have to install Personal 8i for Windows 98.
However, do the following before you begin to install: modify your WIN.INI file, in section [Compatibility95], adding Jew=0x00080000. Reboot your system and install.
I found this out, so I have not tried it myself.
Please confirm if it works. I will do too.

Problem installing oracle in windows on a system with a share drive

I am attempting to install oracle on windows at work. I have access to a share drive that has an oracle inventory. I do not have permission to write here.
When I try to install oracle locally on my C: drive, by default the installation looks in the N: drive oracle inventory and since I do not have privileges to write there, it errors out.
how do i set it so that the installer creates an oracle/inventory locally on my C: drive?

On Windows registry key 'inst_loc' defines the Oracle inventory location,obviously a previous installation set this location to shared drive N: . Unfortunately it's NOT supported to change this , statement from Oracle:
Development have stated that manually changing the "inst_loc" string in the Windows registry (under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Oracle or HKLM\Software\Oracle) is officially unsupported.
You could create a 'clean' machine (remove completely all Oracle components including registry keys and start again with a fresh installation)
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b14316/deinstall.htm#i1008427
OR - maybe easier - ask your systemadminstrator to grant the necessary privilege.

I need to install and configure Active Directory and DNS service on a

I have experience on installing AD and DC, DNS services on local

Unfortunately I wasn't able to find a proper guide for my case.
Would appreciate if someone could guide me on the steps I need to
take so that I will not disturb the current network settings. (A
little down time for installing the services and features is ok as
long as I don't lose connectivity)

You want to install AD on an Internet Server?
According to your description your server has one public IP-address and
no internal IP-address and you want to install AD on this Internet
server?? Is that correct??
Can you tell us the intended use of this server. Do you want to host
services on this server, which need AD authentication?
If you have a second NIC and your DC is on another local machine I
would not expose your local AD on an public accessible server. If this
server shall become a DC it should not have more than one IP-address.
If you want to access data on this server via Internet securely I would
recommend a VPN solution - preferably not running on the server itself
but on a separate firewall between the server and the internet. In this
case I would have no see a big security problem running AD on this
server.

Installing Oracle in windows server2003 problem

Hello
When i install oracle 10gR2 in windows xp or linux i don't have any problem
but now i want install oracle 10gR2 in windows server2003 for test ( i don't have
network, consequently i havn't tuned anything for network in OS)
it fail in "Oracle Net Services Configuration"
in "product-Specific Prerequisite checks" stage i receive this warning
(but i always recieve it in windows xp and i ignore it but no problem occur)
Checking Network Configuration requirements ...
Actual Result: Unknown Host Exception has Occurred :server1: server1.
Check complete. The overall result of this check is: Not executed <<<<
Recommendation: Oracle supports installations on systems with DHCP-assigned IP addresses; However, before you can do this,
you must configure the Microsoft LoopBack Adapter to be the primary network adapter on the system.
See the Installation Guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP.
and in installation log i see this note

How to install oracle on windows 2 nodes cluster

Hi,
As a beginner, I need to how to install (i.e. steps ) Oracle 11g R1 on windows 2003 SP2 enterprise, having 2 nodes (active -passive) clusters on it?
Thanks,

Hi
This is hard to describe on the forum. I hope you are doing it for some fun so it is better to start from standalone version before progressing to clusters.... Don't take an offence but clustering and beginners are like throwing out the baby into the water in the middle of the ocean.... Not really adviseable...

Has anyone an idea about this ?
Thanks,

ORA-12154 while installing Oracle 10g on windows 7

Hi,
I am trying to install Oracle 10g express edition on my machine (core 2 duo 2.93) running on Windows 7.
The installation moves on perfectly for the 1st step and while running the 2nd step (Net configuration Assistant), it gives the ORA-12154 error.
The contents of my configuration files at this point are as follows:
Listener.ora
=============
SID_LIST_ORCL =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = ORCL)
(ORACLE_HOME = F:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
=============
And that of tnsnames.ora is:
=============
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = ORCL)
=============
After some googling around, I have found and installed the Microsoft Loopback adapter too (since my LAN is DHCP enabled) and also tried to turn on the firewall on my machine to check if it is not a problem with the port 1521 being blocked by the firewall.
However, even after all that I still get the error "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified." while running the Net configuration Assistant and/or running SQL Plus to connect to the SID - ORCL.
I can only see one service running in my services by the name : OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListenerORCL
Any suggestions or advice on the error would be much welcome.
Is it anything related to Windows 7 ? Because I have managed to install using the same installer on another machine which runs Windows XP and everything seems fine there.
Thanking you all in anticipation.

Hmmm.. but then I'd have expected some installation error. I have read around that people have managed to install oracle on windows 7.
The error displayed seems to be indicating that there is some configuration or permissions issue.Check that the user has permission to write in the ORACLE_HOME\network\admin - UAC might be blocking that.
Install with software only, and run netca & dbca separately to create the database after the s/w install. (That's the way it is done in production anyway, so get used to it.)
But yes - you still may have problems. Those who did fake it out on Windows 7 usually understand what to do. If you are smart enough to actually do it, my hat is off to you.

Installing Oracle 8i on Windows Millenium

Can anyone out there please help me?
I tried installing Oracle 8i Enterprise edition on a PC but it wouldn't install as it kept on going back to the previous "Install/Deinstall" products screen. I tried it with Windows 98 and it worked first time.
Can Oracle 8i not run on Windows 98 or is there a patch that should be run before loading Oracle 8i?
Thanks!!!

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.

Oracle 11g install issues on Windows 7

I have had some problems installing Oracle on Windows 7 in that it seemed to crash while checking prerequisites. After several attempts it for some reason continued the installation. I had accepted the default settings and was installing from a USB drive to the same drive. The install did have a few error messages along the way such as "file not found. F:\app\ben\product\11.2.0\dbhome_2\oc4j\j2ee\oc4j_applications\applications\em.ear" and ""file not found. F:\app\ben\product\11.2.0\dbhome_2\ctx\admin\dr0ulib.sql.sbs". Also, towards the end it gave a message "Template General_Purpose.dbc does not exist. Please specify an existing template for database creation. <OK>". Despite these errors it seemed to successfully install. On the other hand I cannot log in to it as I attempt to try to set up some kind of basic database for myself. I go to the BIN directory and run sqlplus with "system" as the username and the password I had specified, but get the error "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error". Googling around a bit I tried to see if Oracle Services was running, but only saw OracleMTSRecoveryService and OracleRemExecService (and could not work out how to get any service running beyond what was listed there). I set up the path ORACLE_HOME to the BIN directory but there was not change in the situation. I just need a to set up a basic database on my PC so I can mess around with it. How can I get this going?
Thanks,
Ben

While I have not installed Oracle on Windows 2003 Small Business Server, I would suggest that you not install on that particular version of Windows. While I have not worked with SBS, I believe that this is an all-in-one solution that handles Exchange email services, file services, print services, domain control (all roles), DNS, WINS, HTTP, and probably a couple other things also.
While it sounds like a great idea to add Oracle to this server, I suspect that you will encounter some of the same issues that cause problems when Oracle is installed on a Windows domain controller. On such a server, there is no concept of a local group (the ORA_DBA group that the installer tries to create). Available memory, availalble free CPU, and disk contention may also be a problem due to contention with other services running on the server.
You might take a look at the following Metalink articles:
Note:46001.1
Note:77665.1
Note:160538.1
I would suggest that you take a look at the 64 bit Standard Edition of Windows 2003 if it is compatible with your hardware, or if you are familiar with Linux, do as Aman suggested. If possible, run only Oracle on the server.
Incidentally, Windows 2003 SBS is not listed on Oracle's certify web page, even though Windows 2008 is listed.

Problem Installing 817 on Windows 2000 with RAID Array

I am having a problem installing Oracle under windows 2000 which has 2 x 60 GB discs configured in RAID array. When I run the setup program the cursor goes busy for about 10 seconds and returns back to normal and nothing happens !. No errors nothing.
However when I run the Object Manager in the ods_preinstall directory it starts but in the log file I get the following error message:-
02/14/02 09:46:18 : (892) : Error in IO Control call for disk PhysicalDrive0 (Error 21)
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : The count = 28
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : The signature is 0x443aa035
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : Error: First Partition of the disk must be an extended disk
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : Found the partition: 7
Any idea whats happening....? Has anyone seen this before. Do I need to do something special in teh RAID..?
TIA
Martin

Here are some possible solutions:
1. The installation notes state that you must be logged on as Administrator to be able to install 9i. Are you logged on as the Administrator? Being logged on as user01 with Administrator priviledges isn't the same as Administrator.
2. Is the disk full? If I remember my installation correctly, I needed 3 times the size of the files. The documentation will tell you how much space you need.
Hope these two questions help
Regards,
Michael
