Link  Oracle Home  in Windows?

Hi All,
How do you make a link of Oracle Home in Windows?
In unix, I can do it as
#  ln -s   /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1       /OracleHomeThanks a lot,

Even i never come across with that situation, I tried to dig on it. i found something for you, read this
On Windows, Oracle Database DLLs form part of the executable at run time and are therefore smaller. DLLs can be shared between multiple executables. Relinking by the user is not supported, but executable images can be modified using ORASTACK.
Modifying executable images on Windows reduces the chances of running out of virtual memory when using a large SGA or when supporting thousands of connections. However, Oracle recommends doing this only under the guidance of Oracle Support Services.

  • Linking oracle home with reinstalled os

    Dear experts Plz solve my query
    I am working on oracle 10g on windows xp
    IN C:\ I HAVE INSTALLED OS
    IN E:\ I have set my ORACLE_HOME

    Is there any means throgh which I can link up my ORACLE_HOME with the newLY iNSTALLED OS.
    Kindly give me guidance.
    Thanks& Regards

    Assalamu alaikum Asif,
    Since you have an operating system which does not know that you have oracle Installed, try the following:
    - provide the "Oracle_home\bin" directory in your path so that it detects where the Oracle executables are residing.
    - Also ensure to set the Oracle home and Oracle base.
    - In windows since it uses the services to run certain application you will have to create a service for oracle using the "oradim" utility eg: oradim -new -sid orcl
    - Before you start opening the sqlplus from cmd, first ensure you set you Oracle_sid, Oracle_home and then invoke sqlplus
    Try the above and let me know if you find any difficulties in proceeding with this or you can also try the below option
    - You can simply take a backup of the database via RMAN or logical backup via export and then use these to restore the database after reinstalling the Oracle software.

  • How to locate my Oracle home in windows

    Dear Friends,
    I have installed Oracle 10g database on windows but i dont know where my oracle home is present.
    I also want to know how to go to Enterprise Manager console through my browser.
    Thanks

    Check registry entries for Oracle
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHIN\SOFTWARE\ORACLE - There, you'll find ORACLE_HOME environment variable
    In order to start EM, start it from Windows Services or from cmd by runningn "emctl start dbconsole" command

  • Multiple oracle homes on Windows and the "Path" environment variable

    Hi There,
    We have a windows 2003 database server that has few databases running oracle 10.2.0.3. We are installing oracle 11.2.0.1 on the box as well, and we were wondering, which binaries should come 1st in the path environment variable? and how does this effect the working oracle environment?
    Going to the oracle home selector and swapping the 2 oracle homes around will have the same effect on the windows path variable - which will treat the 1st oracle home to be the default home - are there any general rules reg. multiple oracle homes on a server and the default home?
    Should the earlier version of oracle always proceed the newer one (i.e. c:\oracle\product\10.2.0.3\bin;c:\oracle\product\11.2.0.1\bin) or should the newer oracle version comes 1st as newer oracle versions are usually backward compatible?
    Your thoughts are highly appreciated.
    Thanks

    That isn't going to happen.
    If you install 11.2 last it will appear in the PATH variable first
    If you don't want that you need to Oracle Home Selector utility in the Installer to change it.
    Obviously, as usual, all of this is documented.

  • How to Install Oracle 10g in Windows 7 Home premium 64bit operating system

    Hi,
    I am using Windows 7 Home premium 64bit operating system. While i was installing oracle 10g i got error and not able to install. How to install the Oracle 10g databse on this operating system. Is there any patch to install this or i have to use other version of oracle with window 7 operating system?
    Thanks in advance

    The argument would be who wants to install Oracle database on Windows 7. I think most probably by the developers who wants to "Try" something prior deal with a production database, right?
    For a developer, installing database using the hack is more than NOT having a local database running from the local system. I installed all the products mentioned with windows7bugs post and used the following tools to successfully connect and retrive data from the database instances.
    Toad 9.7.x.x
    SQL Developer
    SQL/Plus
    Developer 6i (Another hack, please check this link http://windows7bugs.wordpress.com/2010/03/01/installing-oracle-developer-forms-reports-6i-on-windows-7-64bit/).
    I think the discussion about whether all the features of client/server are still available with such a hacked installation is meaningless as far the information requested was strictly for Windows 7, not for a Server OS.

  • How to install 2 oracle homes on singl windows host

    Hi Experts,
    I am planning to install two sap R/3 4.7 ext200 SR1 instances on windows 2003. I already installed DEV instance & planning for QAS.
    I am confused about how to install two ORACLE softwares on single windows host.
    I search on internet there for windows they are pointing to the registry value
    \HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
    Software\Oracle\inst_loc.
    I am not able to understand what I have to do with this ?
    Can you please help me to understand & execute this.
    Thanks,
    Sachin

    Sachin,
    Go throuth this link to understand more about Oracle Inventory and Oracle Homes software update.
    http://cs.ifmo.ru/~ad/Documentation/oracle-10g-lib-doc/em.101/b12140/3_oui_oracle_homes.htm#i1005634
    The current entry is picked from the PATH vairable of the system and user that you have logged on. This is because you have already done 1 Oracle Installation on the host.
    Keep in mind that you choose the correct oracle home while installing and in future updating Oracle software (patchset, Interim Pactches...)
    You can give a seperate path for Oracle Inventory. Just go thru to the existing folder of OraInventory in Program files you will understand it better.
    It is used to install and update the Oracle software in the oracle home that you will choose in your next step.
    All the Best,
    Nilesh

  • Install Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium

    I have a problem Installing Oracle 9i on Windows Vista Home Premium, I cant install it because it throws me an error message saying that is incompatible with my version of Windows. It is possible to install it with some patch or something??
    Message was edited by:
    user599646

    The only patch I know of is called Windows XP.
    In case you have not done any internet searches on this, even Oracle Database 10g was not compatible with Vista until Oracle applied some heavy patches and re-released it.
    And since Oracle9i is officially deprecated (nearest thing to obsolete as to make no difference) I see no reason for Oracle to backport the patches.

  • Installation of oracle 10gR2 on Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit OS

    can we install oracle 10gR2 on Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit OS ???
    While doing sqlplus from command prompt,
    it's giving error like
    'SP2-1503 Unable to initialise Oracle Call interface'
    'SP2-0152 Oracle may not be functioning Properly'
    How to troubleshoot the above errors,
    Has anybody tried it ???
    Plz assist.

    No Oracle product is certified against any Windows Home OS.
    As Vista was released after Oracle 10gR2, 10gR2 is not certified against any edition of Vista.
    You need to downgrade to XP, or install Linux.

  • TNS 12549 error on installing Oracle 10g on Windows XP Home?

    Hi,
    I installed Oracle 10g on Windows XP Home by clicking on Disk1\install\setup (NOT Disk1\setup as instructed since that did not work). Everything seemed to go fine except towards the end of the install I got a whole bunch of errors saying that "operating system resource quota exceeded". There were options to Ignore or Abort at most of these stages. I chose Ignore and the whole install seemed to complete but I am not able to connect to the database using sqlPlus. I looked at the log files created where I saw a whole bunch of errors in several files. For example in sqlnet log, I saw this error (among others) appeneded below. It seems obvious that some resource quotas were exceeded but I am not able to figure out exactly what quotas should be increased. Any help regarding this would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    XP Home is not supported, despite of this some people get oracle to work.
    But in your case, possibly your machine has simply not enough resources, 12549 is a very generic error. Check the hardware requirements in the installation guide.

  • My school has a website.  The professor uploads files in Word.  When I click on the link at home using Pages, the download window opens with nothing in it and Safari opens with a blank in the address book.  What Could be wrong?  Wrong set up?

    Hi Jo,
    If I'm interpreting this correctly, the Word file downloads correctly, but when you open it in Pages, the link(s) which your instructor has embedded in the Word file are not correctly translated into Pages.
    If the link shows the actual address, you should be able to copy that and paste it into the location bar in Safari, press return, and get to the website that way.
    An alternate route might be to download one of the open source Office applications, OpenOffice.org, LibreOffice, or NeoOffice. These are written to more closely emulate the behaviours of MS Word than Pages, and may provide better support for links embedded in Word files.
