Issues installing 11g client on windows 2008 R2

Hi I am a windows admin and have been asked to install oracle SQL developer and oracle 11g client on a windows 2008 R2 server.
However it will not work.
After having issues and having to manually set environment variables and creating the folder path network\admin for the ora files, we still get the following issue
"IO Error: The network adapter could not establish the connection"
We have tried both 64 and 32bit versions.
Any help here would be very much appreciated.
Paul.

Thanks for everyones response to this.
First issue was the server we were installing this on is not on the domain and doesnt point to our internal DNS. Hence it couldnt resolve the Host name in the tns file.
I added this to the hosts file, then we had to modify some of the registry entries and path manually.
We were then able to succesfully make a connection.
Paul.

Issues installing 10g ODAC on Windows 2008 with Oracle 10g Express

I am new to Oracle and am having an issue installing Oracle Data Access Components on Oracle 10g 64bit running on Windows 2008 64bit.
I need the ODAC installed to enable integration with SSIS.
The issue I have if i install using ODAC10203x64 the setup file fails with a javaw error and the ntdll.dll.
I then downloaded the ODAC1110720 which states it backwards compatible. It installs just fine, but now i am not sure as to how to configure it correctly as the Configuration util that loads in ODAC10203x64 does not run.
The ODBC drivers are not visible under the ODBC connection manager although this may be an issue of just opening the 32Bit version.
Any help would be appreciated

Hi Ibrahim,
You should decide what you require.
32bit version can be installed on 64bit server and this should work fine (check the certification matrix for this).
The "problem" is that you would not gain any performance benefit from the 64bit server
If you want to have benefit you can upgrade the JVM to 64 bit version.
I did this 3 years ago and I do not remember exact steps though everything worked OK.
WARNING:
this can be unsupported, ask support to be sure
- Install the 32 bit version on the server
- Download 64 bit Java JRE/JDK and install it (well, you can search the same release as included in the AppServer or try newer one, 7 for example)
- later, reconfigure the appserver so it uses the version you've installed, OR Copy the everything from c:\progfiles\java\... to the directory OraHome\... (forgot exact directories)
try to search the forum, there had been a thread with the same question
regards, michael

Can't install 11g client on Windows 7 64 bit

I downloaded both of the following files.
win32_11gR2_client.zip
win64_11gR2_client.zip
I unzipped them to
c:\OracleClient32
c:\OracleClient64
If I attempt to run setup.exe from either location, I get nothing. And I mean nothing.
Nothing in the event log, nothing in the %temp% dir. No window pops up. Nothing.
I've read the documentation, and I can't find anything wrong.
Here's my system info:
Windows 7 Professional 64 bit SP1
Intel Core i5 2.5Ghz
8GB Ram
232 GB free on C:
16 GB Swap
What is going on? I've never had so much trouble installing something before!

Wow, I found the issue.
It was so simple, it's just astounding.
My (failed) install steps:
1. download zip file to c:\OracleClient32
2. double click zip file, it opens in Winzip
3. drag and drop files from winzip interface to c:\OracleClient32 folder
4. double click setup.exe, nothing happens.
My (working) install steps:
1. download zip file to c:\OracleClient32
2. double click zip file, it opens in Winzip
3. click "extract" in winzip, choose c:\OracleClient32 as the target
4. double click setup.exe, it works perfectly
For some reason, Winzip loses the folder structure when you drag and drop, but not when you extract.
I don't even know why my corporate image has Winzip installed...isn't it pretty much useless now? I know that I'll never use it again.
I found the error by downloading Process Monitor and filtering for "setup.exe". It was encountering an error when looking for the c:\OracleClient32\Install folder.
It would be nice if setup would actually display error messages instead of silently ignoring them and wasting my time.
This is officially the longest it has ever taken for me to install anything. In fact, this took me one day longer than the first time I compiled and installed the linux kernel from source.

Installing DSEE 7 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1 64-bit does nothing

Hi All,
Has anyone been able to install DSEE 7 on Windows 2008 R2 SP1 64-bit? Is it supported?
I followed the instructions and when run the command (as the Administrator) below nothing happen, it simply return an empty command prompt. Ms VC 2008 Redistributables (the one that come with the archive) is installed.
dsccsetup.exe war-file-create
dsccsetp.exe ads-create
When run the same command using the same archive on Windows 7 64-bit it does prompt for further input or report error.
Any suggestions or help would be much appreciated.

Windows 2008 R2 is not listed as a supported OS in the release notes.
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E19424-01/820-4805/820-4805.pdf
It lists:
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Standard Edition for x86 and x64 Service Pack 1
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Edition for x86 and x64 Service Pack 1
If you are able to go to the next version, it is listed as supported in the release notes for ODSEE 11g:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/downloads/odsee-11gr1certmatrix-161592.xls
I have not tried 11g on 2008 R2 myself, but if it is in the certification matrix, it should work.
Hope that helps,
Eric

Install Oracle 10g on windows 2008 Server 64bit

Is it possible to install Oracle 10g on Windows 2008 64bit . I read one post below it says , windows 2008 is not certified for oracle 10g ..
windows server 2008 Oracle 10G 64 bit
before I installed 32bit , it is throwing error message on alert log file on every 5 seconds.
"OER 7451 in Load Indicator : Error Code = OSD-04500: illegal option specified
O/S-Error: (OS 1) Incorrect function. ! "
if it is possible which version I want to download is best ..
and what is the recommendation whether it is 10g or 11g

You mean to say Oracle 10g 64bit will not work in Windows 2008..?No, i meaned the post you linked was written in year 2008, in that year it's was a unsupported platform for that oracle version. Actually its supported and you can install it.
Furthermore like Aman told you, It's more recommended install 11gR2 version

Error during installing oracle client on windows XP

Hi everybody,
I want to install Oracle Client on Windows XP. I downloaded and installed Client version 10g on several PCs. But one of them gives me error - 'oui.exe - error'. Cant start oui.exe. Is it problem of Windows XP or ? I just cant start GUI of OUI.exe...

1. Check the administrative privilege of that windows machine.
2. Copy the binaries of client again in your machine. It may be corrupted.
3. Restart your machine and try again.

Installing XE Client en Windows 7 and using OLEDB

Hello,
I'm trying to use XECLient with OLEDB on Win 7 but when installing XE client on Windows 7, the "Oracle Provider for OLE DB" doesn't appear in the Providers List (ex : in a udl file).
I've tried to do this "regsvr32 OraOLEDB10.dll" and this is ok (dll registered successfully). But still no Oracle Provider !
I need help please !
Thanks.

Hi there !
I have the same problem On Windows 7 Professional 32bits (on several PC).
After installing XEClient as an Administrator.
I can't connect to my server with OLEDB (MS Access 2010).
I have error message "provider not found" or sometimes it will just crash without going to VBA error handler !
If I "regsvr32 OraOLEDB10.dll" sometimes it works an sometimes it does not.
But anyway it won't help for the connexion.
Sometimes launching sqlplus will crashes also ! But will work if I launch it as a Administrator.
There is a workaround : installing OracleXE (the database) on the same machine will resolve the problem..
Then we can just stop the unused Oracle services with MSConfig.
When I install OracleXE.exe I see that my user get the ORA_DBA groupe...
If someone can help finding a better solution...
Thx all !
