Is Oracle XE compatible with XP HOME?

Is/will Oracle XE compatible with XP HOME?

I don't think it was necessarily luck, as much as consistency.
I would suspect that your environments are installed for your requirements and are all fairly consistent. And all including the necessary subsystems. And I would suspect you always install Oracle products with XP Home attached to the network, which ensures that the complete network subsystem is installed.
I note from various sites that some of the differences between Home and Pro are at the networking level and the group priveleges level.
I also note that many people have commented about Oracle not working correctly in networked Windows XP when the database was installed without a network connection active and vise versa (not networked when installed with network). And many XP Home users will not be aware that there might be a difference.
Much speculation on my part, and simply an observation that many people - even ones who have installed successfully in XP Pro and are presumably competent - report difficulty installing or running on XP Home.
I admit, it might not be technical at all, but 'technique'.
AFAIK, the P4 bug is not at all relevant to XP environments, is it? And AFAIK it only impacted 8i, which is also not supported in XP.

  • Cs3 and cs4 web standard compatible with vista home basic?

    Are Adobe CS3 and CS4 Web Standard compatible with Vista Home Basic 32bit?
    I only see Windows Vista Home Premium / Vista Business / Vista Enterprise / Vista Ultimate / XP listed as compatible.
    Many thanks.

    Vista didn't exist when CS3 was released and as such, there is no official statement regard compatibility of CS3 with Vista Home Basic.
    For CS4, we are very explicit. CS4 is not at all supported for Vista Home Basic (there are a number of networking and service support components that Microsoft leaves out of their Home Basic versions).

  • Ipod classic compatible with Vista Home Premium 64 bit

    Hi,
    Is the Ipod Classic compatible with Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit?
    I found out the hard way that the Itouch is not!
    Greetings,
    Miguel

    If I could I would answer your question.
    But I do not know how I did that.
    Itunes has been working since day 1 on my 64 bit machine, only problem is that it takes half a minute to copy album cover art to song in itunes, the computer is hanging for 15 seconds before the album cover art is copied.
    I just took the Ipod out of the box and connected it to the computer and it worked fine.
    Only problem that I had yesterday is that when I'm intergrating album cover art my hard disk is doing strange things.
    Just yesterday, my RAID 1 was corrupted by Itunes, first hard disk 1 was failing and an hour later hard disk 2 also crashed.
    Was able to reconnect them into RAID 1, luckilly.

  • Is Oracle 8i compatible with win2000 ?

    Hi Friends,
    I got a problem with the oracle 8i standard version(8.1.6) and personal oracle8i in WINDOS2000 environment ( both are on separate p.c.).
    I had installed perfectly and works for few days, then after some days my database couldnot startup. When i tried to login to database end-of-communication message display.
    Is this oracle 8i versions is fully compatible with windows 2000 environment ?
    Please guide, i'm in big trouble....

    Yes Oracle 8i is compatible with Windows 2000. Please install the Oracle 8i edition for Windows NT on the Windows 2000 machine. It works very well. Also check for installation problems. Check the listener settings as well

    I'm guessing you have a PIV machine? Any platform that uses the Intel PIV processor, with the sun JRE and Symmantec JIT, OUI version 1.7.1.9.0 and earlier, will encounter this problem.
    Windows NT, Windows 2000 and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be affected.
    You can either search for Patch # 1507768 on the Metalink site or you can copy the contents of the installation CD to your hard disk and rename all occurences of the file symcjit.dll to symcjit.ora. Then you should be able to go to that directory on your hard drive and run setup just fine.

  • Oracle DB compatible with HP UnixWare ?

    I have a server with HP UnixWare 7.1.
    IS it compatible with any version of Oracle DB installation ?
    I have checked the certification metrics for the 10g and 11g DB. But for it I don't see this compatible.
    And what to check with you guys , if there is any compatible version of oracle DB what can be installed on this OS.
    Thanks in advance.
    Naveen.

    Hi,
    the latest version made for Unixware is 8.1.7.4. There is no 9i or higher version available. And definitely there will be no support for such old version of oracle and it will be hard to find as a download.

  • Is Oracle database Compatible with Times Ten database?

    Hello All,
    I need to use a temporary database in Oracle for some months.
    Later on, I will need to migrate all data to a Times Ten database.
    1. My doubt is if Oracle and Times Ten databases are compatible with
    each other (specially when having this kind of cases) ?
    2. In case the answer is YES to question 1, I would like to know if there are some
    restrictions in that compatibility (type of data, any other issue, etc)
    Best Regards
    Rubén

    Ruben,
    There are two areas you shoul look into regarding your project: SQL functionality and data types. TimesTen 6.0 supports a subset of the SQL features and data types currently available in the Oracle DB; also, TimesTen supports some native numberic data types that are not available in the Oracle DB.
    If your end-game is to use the TimesTen database, then I would start with the TimesTen API and SQL Reference Guide (http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/timesten_doc.html)
    Use the SQL functionality documented for TimesTen and pay attention to the common data types. For example, VARCHAR is handled differently from VARCHAR2 (where trailing spaces exist), DATE and Timestamp are handled differently, etc. Additionally, keep in mind most numeric values are declared using NUMBER in the Oracle DB, but not in TimesTen.
    If you are an existing TimesTen licensed customer, please let us know your support ID(CSI) and we can contact you with more information on our future release plan to address SQL and data types compatibility.
    By the way, what's the timeline for your project?

  • Fireworks 8 compatible with Vista Home Premium?

    I just loaded Macromedia Fireworks 8 to my new Windows Vista
    Home Premium computer. When I open the program, Vista reverts back
    to Home Basic - meaning it's not compatible with Home Premium. Is
    there a free fix for this anywhere on the adobe site????? What do I
    need to do? I'd like it to work without it bringing up the box that
    says something like "using Home Basic"....to run the
    program.

    FW 8 is essentially two versions old at this point and was
    not built
    with Vista in mind. Fireworks CS4 (coming out sometime soon)
    will run
    with Vista, but you can also check out the requirements on
    Adobe's web site.

  • Oracle installer dies with xp home edition on a laptop

    I am trying to installe Oracle9i R2 on a windows laptop (256 megs ram)
    running windows xp home editionn and i tried with installation
    cd's and downloaded files with same results. Basically after
    i select the database type the installer dies.
    The interesting thing is i did get Oracle9i R1 running on the
    laptop but i uninstalled it using the oracle installer. I even
    tried cleaning out Oracle from the windows registry.
    Interesting thing is i did get Oracle 9i R2 running on a windows
    xp home edition desktop which never has an oracle product.
    Anyone have any ideas how i can get the Oracle 9i R2 server running on the
    laptop. One more tidbit of information. The Oracle 9i client
    software installs without problems.
    ted
    ps. i have plenty of diskspace. root partition >1.5 gigs and
    install directory > 5 gigs.

    Same issue as well. I've tried it on a Windows 2000 Server and .Net Server (RC). I select the type of Install (Enterprise Edition), then the installer exits memory at 36%. I posted this to the General database section a week or two ago and never got a response (I didn't know about the install forum until recently). Oracle 9i R1 installs fine on both. I've tried performing an upgrade, I've tried de-installing, etc. No difference. I am able to perform a 9iR2 client install, but the server always refuses to install. I've even downloaded the whole thing twice. Very frustrating.

  • Oracle 8i compatible with Windows Server 2008?

    Does anyone know whether Oracle 8i can be run on Windows Server 2008? My organization has only a license for Oracle 8i and we're buying new servers coming with Windows Server 2008.
    Thank you, Chaiyong

    There is no such thing as a licence for "Oracle 8i" there is only a licence for Oracle. Do you mean that you're out of support ?
    In any event 8i is desupported.
    Best bet is to install P2V a VMware Windows 2000 and leave it at that.

  • Oracle 11g compatiblity with Windows Server 2008 R2

    When you said, People have been able to make it work, is there something that needs to be done to make it compatible or can I just ignore following from the compatiblity check in the installatation prerequisites?I do not condone using unsupported, and potentially unsupportable, environments. The risk to the user community in production is too great, especially in that 'it may appear to work, but may just as easily run into an obscure incompatibility'.
    Perhaps someone else will help you shoot yourself in the foot. Or use your favorite internet search ...
