Installition hanging using new Database Release 2 EnterpriseStandardPersonal Edition

(If this is not the right forumn - then where do I go?)
I am installing the latest 9iDB EE from OTN and the install process has * hung-up * twice now. This install is on a brand new W2K Server with 512 MB memory and 40BG storage.
I chossen the full-blown Enterprise setup (2.86 BG) and on the first iteration it hung at 38% completion (PL-SQL part) and the second iteration it hung at 45% completion (Installing Reporting Frameworks).
I'm stuck! Any ideas are appreciated!
Thank you,
Bill G...

Well, I just completed a * Custom * install (choosing fewer options) without incident. I'll now try to install all the other options using the custom install.

    If you look at page 2, Installation and Configuration, the steps to configure you OS and "install" oracle are detailed. Since this a developer preview version the standard installation steps commonly associated with Oracle do not apply.

    This download has been up for some time so it's most likely a problem with the file transfer - did you verify the filesize matches what is posted on the web page?
    You may want to use a download manager for this file if you keep getting the error - there are many available. (www.getright.com works pretty well).

  • Oracle 9i Database Release 2 Installation, login

    I have just installed Oracle 9i Database Release 2 Personal Edition (Oracle9i Database 9.2.0.1.0) on my home computer, which is running Windows XP Professional. My intent is to use the SQL Plus program to create basic databases for my college class. I now need to know how to create/use the login to begin using SQL Plus, especially with the host string.
    Keep in mind:
    -This is my first time using Oracle
    -I don't want anything fancy, just the basics
    -I have looked at the previous topics and they all refer to a Unix install or relate to topics I don't understand.
    -I am looking for a response that my Grandma could almost understand. I want the step-by-step procedures, what things to click on, and so on. If it's a thirty-page post, I don't mind as long as I can start getting some homework done.

    Since you are trying to login on the same machine, try this:
    sqlplus /nolog
    connect / as sysdba

  • TOAD hangs, for the new Database

    Hi,
    My database version is:
    Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
    PL/SQL Release 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    CORE     11.2.0.3.0     Production
    TNS for Linux: Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    NLSRTL Version 11.2.0.3.0 - Production
    My TOAD version is:
    Version 10.1.1.8
    We created a new database A and created a user schema.
    When I login to the schema in TOAD and leave the session idle (even if I dont run any query) for a while and come back to it, TOAD gets hanged.
    I get no error message or anything, it just hangs and I have to do alt+ctrl+del and end task everytime.
    This does not happen with another database B.
    So I assume this is not a TOAD problem.
    Please advice where the problem lies.
    Thanks!!

  • Create a new Database in an other server using a copie of RMAN backup

    Hi all,
    I want to create an other instance for our production database. We have disk and tape in rman backup. My question is can i create a new database using our disk backup in an other server?
    If some procedure or steps is there, email it to my adresse [email protected]
    Hamid.
    Thanks

    By means of the use of Recovery Manager it is possible to duplicate a database out from a previously taken rman backup. The method will be outlined in the next few lines.
    Let's assume a source database named SRCDB and the target database, named GEMINI. A unix like environment is assumed, but it can be implemented on windows as well, just beware of the particular Oracle implementation on a windows platform (orapwd file name, service creation, path format)
    1. Create a password file for the Cloned (GEMINI) instance:
    orapwd file=/u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0/dbs/orapwGEMINI password=password entries=10
    2. Configure tnsnames.ora and listner.ora
    Properly identify the database at the tnsnames.ora and have the instance manually registered against the listener.ora files, both files located at the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory.
    2.a Manually register the database against the listener (listener.ora)
    (SID_DESC =
    (ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/9.2.0.1.0)
    (SID_NAME = GEMINI)
    2.b Added the target GEMINI to the tnsnames.ora
    GEMINI =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myhost.mydomain.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (ORACLE_SID = GEMINI)
    2.c Reload the listener
    lsnrctl reload
    3. Create a new init.ora for the cloned database.
    Next create an init.ora file for the cloned database. In case the same paths cannot be used on the target host, either because it is the same source host or because those paths are not reproducible on the target, then DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT and LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT may be required to be defined
    DB_NAME=GEMINI
    CONTROL_FILES=(/u02/oradata/GEMINI/control01.ctl,
    /u02/oradata/GEMINI/control02.ctl,
    /u02/oradata/GEMINI/control03.ctl)
    # Convert file names to allow for different directory structure.
    DB_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=(/u02/oradata/SRCDB/,/u02/oradata/GEMINI/)
    LOG_FILE_NAME_CONVERT=(/u01/oradata/SRCDB/,/u01/oradata/GEMINI/)
    # block_size and compatible parameters must match those of the source database
    DB_BLOCK_SIZE=8192
    COMPATIBLE=9.2.0.0.0
    4. Connect to the cloned instance
    ORACLE_SID=GEMINI; export ORACLE_SID
    sqlplus /nolog
    conn / as sysdba
    5. Create an SPFILE based on the init.ora
    CREATE SPFILE FROM PFILE='/u01/app/oracle/admin/GEMINI/pfile/init.ora';
    6. Start the database in NOMOUNT mode:
    STARTUP FORCE NOMOUNT;
    7. Connect to the TARGET, CATALOG and AUXILIARY databases.
    By means of the rman three connections are open, one for the Source Database (SOURCEDB), another for the Catalog database (RCAT), and one more for the cloned database (GEMINI)
    ORACLE_SID=GEMINI; export ORACLE_SID
    rman TARGET sys/password@SRCDB CATALOG rman/rman@RCAT AUXILIARY /
    8. Complete or Incomplete clone (recover)
    From the rman the database using one of the following commands:
    8.a Clone the database by means of a complete recover.
    DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO GEMINI;
    8.b Clone the database up to a defined point in time in the past by means of an incomplete recover
    DUPLICATE TARGET DATABASE TO GEMINI UNTIL TIME 'SYSDATE-2';
    9. Process finished.
    Once the process is finished, the newly created GEMINI database is ready to be used as an independent new cloned database.

  • Creating a new folder using a Database Link

    I'm trying to create a new folder from another database with Discoverer Administrator. The schema that I'm using is the same on each database but when I select the other database using the database link, Discoverer Administrator will get all the user accounts on the other database but if that user exists on the default database I will only see the objects owned for that user on the default database. If I select a user that is only on the remote database I will see the objects from the remote database. Is this a Bug? I was able to do this using Disco Admin 9.0.4 and EUL 5.02 on an Oracle 8i database. I just migrated my EUL to an Oracle 10g database using EUL 5.1.1 and Disco Admin 10.1.2.

    Yes this a bug, Bug No. 4324352 &Note:459996.1
    You follow this workaround
    After the Folder creation
    1. Choose Folder Properties (right-click on Folder)
    2. Change database from <default database> to <DBLINK>
    Thanks

  • Creating a new database vs. Using the existing database

    Hi,
    I have to build a new desktop application over an existing oracle database -
    Current database is around 300 gb
    Has 1500+ tables
    Tables are in denormalized form and has ungrouped table columns
    High level of nesting is done in the triggers.
    Now before I take decision to use existing database I want to know
    1. what factors to consider while choosing between the existing db or a new db?
    Thanks in advance.

    Some of the things I would consider before including the two desktop applications together:
    Would you mind impacting one or the other application (downtime) if you needed to bounce the database for any reason, or if there were issues with the database. Keeping them separate would prevent having to bring down both applications if the database went down for any reason (planned or otherwise).
    Would the type of activity in both databases be so similar that all global optimizer and other parameter settings be perfect for both cases?
    Would the SLA be the same for both databases? Would your customers agree to impacts of one application data if you had to roll back the database for the other application?
    By having the two applications in the same database, you are also stuck with having to wait for both application vendors to certify their product with the next patch level or version for upgrades. Keeping them separate eliminates this problem.
    Is there any compelling reason to keep them together?
    Personally, I would keep them separate for all of the above reasons, and many more which I did not bother to write.

  • How to create a new DataBase using Oracle 10g Express Edition???

    Hello, I am new to Oracle, I am used to Microsoft SQL Server (Enterprise Manager).
    Here in Oracle I do not get how do I create a DataBase, and then create tables on it.
    could anyone please explain to me how to do it?

    A SQL Server database is roughly equivalent to an Oracle schema.
    You should rarely need to create a new database. If you do need to create a database, get a 'for fee' edition of Oracle and use the dbca tool (Database Configuration Assistant) to do that. In fact, you are only allowed to have one XE database on the machine.
    However, you can create as many schemas in an existing Oracle database as you need. (One schema, owned by userid SYS, is roughly equal to your 'master catalog'.)
    You can create other schemas simply by
    1) creating a userid that will own the schema (one designated for maintenance of the schema);
    2) grant that userid appropriate privileges, such as 'CREATE TABLE', 'CREATE VIEW' as shown in the SQL Reference manual under the GRANT section;
    3) provide that userid with a quota in one or more tablespaces (see the CREATE USER command in the SQL Reference manual);
    4) create the objects, such as tabels, views, sequences, stored procs and functions, etc. (as in the SQL Reference manual);
    5) create the users who will access the objects, and grant them the CREATE SESSION capability (as in the SQL Reference manual);
    6) grant access (select, update, execute, etc.) on the schema objects to these users (as in the SQL Reference manual);
    7) if desired, create synonyms on the schema objects so the users do not need to use fully qualified syntax such as "SELECT col FROM schema.table;" (as in the SQL Reference manual).
    In case you are interested in looking at the SQL Reference manual, it can be found at http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/portal.portal_db?selected=1 ;-)

  • How to create a new database and use it?

    Hi there,
    I have so many tables in the current database that i'm working on. When i start to create a new table such as employee, student, person...etc it doesnt allow me to create them becuase it says the tables exists. Even when i use the drop command to drop the tables, doesn't help. So most of the time i have to create a table with postfix of 1, 2 to the table name.
    Therefore i need to create a database for every project that i do.
    How do i create a new database?
    Then how do i use the database that i just created?
    Then how do i find the out whats the database that i'm currently working on?
    Thanks!

    A database is a physical set of files that contains many schemas. Each schema has a one to one relationship with database users, so to create a new schema you create a new database user.
    e.g.
    CREATE USER fred IDENTIFIED BY fredspassword;Then, by logging on as fred you can create all the new tables you like as that user, in that users schema.
    If you create a new database then you will find you cannot access functions/procedures, packages, tables etc. that exist in another users schema without creating a database link to the other database that contains them.
    If you just create a new schema, you can more easily get at other users schema objects (tables, packages etc.) by referencing them with the users name e.g. JOE.TABLE1 providing that user has given permission for your user to access them. You can also create synonyms that allow you to reference other users schema objects as if they exist in your own e.g. you can have something called TABLE1 in your own schema that is in fact referencing JOE.TABLE1.

  • Running resports from new database using discoverer desktop

    Hi,
    I am new here on the project and dont have much documentation avaialable. I have is just passwords.
    I am new to discoverer. I see that there is one historical database names as HIPRD which has historical HR information of audit purpose(just database , no EBS apps). all users who uses HIPRD database they have user_id as database schema.
    the way usres uses data from HIPRD database is either through disco desktop or they launch disco viewer. So they login in disco desktop as username/password database name untick oracle application user. once they login they see all folders where they hace access to run reports.
    I created new database called TEST using cold backup set of HIPRD and i have upgraded to 11gR1. I have updated my local tnsnames.ora with TEST entry and i am able to connect TEST(11g) which has same data as it is available in HIPRD.
    My question is what I have to do on disco side so that usres can run reports from upgraded 11g TEST database using disco desktop or disco viewer the way they are doing for HIPRD.
    Please help, I am new to discoverer

    please i need help

  • Trouble using asm instance for new database

    I have an asm instance and am trying to create a new database that will use the asm storage. I'm using dbca to create the new database. This is a test system on windows so I'm using the asmtool -create flatfiles for disks with the asmallow_only_raw_disks parameter set to false.
    If I have #SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) commented out in my sqlnet.ora, then I can't get into asmcmd:
    ORA-01031: insufficient privileges (DBD ERROR: OCISessionBegin)
    and dbca won't create the new database that uses asm because the dbca gets the same 01031 error when trying to create the control files for that database.
    If I have SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS) NOT commented out, the I can get into asmcmd, but I can't startup the databases using sys, even though I am sitting at the server,
    AND, dbca won't create the new database that uses asm becuase the dbca can't start the instance
    credential retrieval failure.
    I'm in a catch 22. Something is not right with my system but I just can't seem to figure out what it is.
    The asm instance does have a password file.

    I let the dbca create scripts and am currently walking through the scripts. I think it's my asm database that is actually creating the problem. I did the orapwd and oradim manually and can startup nomount the instance just fine. The create database statement fails on creating the controlfile but it's saying it already exists. I suspected the dbca form wasn't giving me all the errors like it should.
    Thanks for your suggestion on the password file.
