Need step by step installation of oracle database 10g on mac os x (10.5)

Does anybody know step by step installation of Database 10g on mac os x?
Thanks

First you download Oracle 10.1.0.3: The only supported database version.
Then you beg Apple to send you a copy of Panther 10.3.6: The only supported operating system version.
Then, if you are familiar with FreeBSD and/or Mac OSX, you should have it up and running in a day or so.
If you are thinking you can do this with 10gR2 or above on Tiger or Leopard you might want to consider that dropping a brick on your foot is faster and will generally produce the same sensation.

  • Need Oracle Database 10g For Mac OS 10.4 PowerPC

    Hi, I am looking for Oracle Database 10g for Mac OS 10.4 PowerPC. I need to run this software on a PowerBook G4. I would appreciate any download links or tips that can help.

    I am using Virtual PC 7 running Windows 2000, but the emulator runs painfully slow. Things would run a lot smoothly if I had the PowerPC version of Oracle Database. I heard it exist.

  • Companion CD installation - getting Oracle Database 10g installation

    Hi everyone,
    I want to install the Oracle Companion CD (to use HTTP server and HTMLDB) on Solaris with Oracle Database 10g. I downloaded the companion CD and when running the installer I am getting "Welcome to the Oracle Database 10g Installation". I have already installed the database so my question is why the installer is asking me to install another database ? The documentation is explaining that the user would have the choice to select an HTTP server installation.
    Best regards,
    Othman

    Get the companion CD from the same place as the database. Start at http://otn.oracle.com, click on Downloads, and to to the Database download
    Get the step by step instructions from the documentation. Start at http://tahiti.oracle.com, go to the database documentation for the version you are using, click on the Books tab, search for "Companion CD Installation Guide for [your operating system]" or "Companion CD Quick Installation Guide for [your operating system]" and follow the steps.
    I strongly encourage you to install ONLY the HTTP server from the companion CD, and to install it into a separate ORACLE_HOME.
    After that, I suggest you use APEX instead of HTMLDB (APEX is the next generation of HTMLDB and is MUCH better.) To get that going, start at http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/index.html and look at "Documentation and Tutorials" for the installlation guide.

  • Installation of Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 Server

    Hi Guys,
    We have to install Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003.
    I read on net, metalink and OTN as well and it seems there is no single 10.2.0.3 setup available to do so.
    One has to upgrade from earlier version to 10.2.0.3.
    Is that so? Is this the only way?
    I mean if we want new and fresh 10.2.0.3 then don't we have installer for it?
    In this case we will have to install 10.1.0.2 and then upgrade? (we have 10.1.0.2 installable with us)
    And if at all that is the only path available then for 10.2.0.3 on Windows 32 bit - Patchset 5337014 i.e. p5337014_10203_WINNT.ZIP from metalink is the correct patch?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi guys,
    I donwloaded patchset - 5337014, and in its readme it is specified to download and install patch - 5601428.
    So I downloaded 5601428 and set ORACLE_HOME and then fired command -

    and i got error saying -

  • Installation error - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

    Hi - I've just tried to install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from the Oracle website and I'm getting this error.
    Error 1327 Invalid Drive: I:\ . I've googled the error but can't find much. It seems that the path is hardcoded into the msi installation package.
    Anyone else seen this issue before as I'm at a loss at what to do ?
    I'm wondering do I have to create an I:\ drive on my machine but that seems a little unusual
    Hope someone can help
    Cheers.

    This problem may occur if you have used the Disk Administrator utility included in Microsoft Windows to change the drive letter of the hard disk that the operating system is installed on, for example, the C drive.
    The problem occurs because the Oracle Universal Installer uses registry keys to determine the locations of certain folders that are required to install Oracle. If the drive letter of the hard disk that contains the operating system has been changed, the registry keys refer to nonexistent folders and Setup fails.
    To correct this problem, use the Windows Disk Administrator program to restore the drive letter of the hard disk to its original value:
    1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and click Disk Administrator.
    2. Right-click the drive whose letter you want to change. On the shortcut menu, click Assign Drive Letter.
    3. Select the correct drive letter from the list and click OK.
    If you are prompted to quit the Disk Administrator or to restart your computer, do so. Once the computer has restarted, attempt to install again.

  • Web Server Options for APEX Installation on Oracle Database 10g

    Hi. We are installation a APEX on a test server that is running Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0. As I understand it there are two Web Server Options:
    1) Oracle HTTP Server (Apache)
    2) Oracle Application Express Listener
    Do both of these work for Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0? I thought I remember reading somewhere that only the Oracle Application Express Listener would only work with database version 11 or higher.

    Do both of these work for Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.4.0?Yes.
    I thought I remember reading somewhere that only the Oracle Application Express Listener would only work with database version 11 or higher. No, that restriction (with the exception of 10g XE) applies to the third web server option which you haven't mentioned: Embedded PL/SQL Gateway (EPG), as discussed in your previous thread: +{thread:id=2201975}+

    Hi Pierre,
    thats fine that I should nt contuinue the installation if the prerequisties isnt match
    but my question is "if we are doing the same installation in GUI based then we have to select that failed components and verify it again, i.e. I select that failed component and retry it (that the same thing done by me) and its working perfectly..." and my installation is successfully completed with any errors.
    So, how can I do the same thing through command line, IF I want to retry for the failed components?

    I am facing some difficulties in installing the above. My environment is as follows:
    Server is a IBM system P, OS is AIX 5.3L and oracle version is Oracle Database 10g R2 (10.2).
    I encounter my problem when asked to changed/edit the shell script when changing oracle users. I can't find the % vi .login file. And I'm not sure how to proceed.
    Please advice as to what needs to be done.
    Thank you

    i'm using bash shell.If you are using a bash shell then .bash_profile is used by default.
    It is located in user's home, if it does not exist then simply create it.
    can this file be edited after installation?Yes. And also you can set the enviroment temporary (just for current session)
    I just can't find the vi .login file."vi" is command (text editor very common in Unix and Unix like world)
    .login does not need to exist (see .bash_profile as above). Note .login is ignored by bash shell.

  • Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Installation

    Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Release for Microsoft Windows installation successful, no problems.

    Hi Rekha,
    The format mask 999G999G999G999G990D0000 is the format mask that I selected from the software itself. I also use this format mask for a single record update. If' s ok, no error, but with tabular form with multiple record update, it shows error .I also changed the decimal point to two digits ,select from software pop-up window (this was tested in the workspace provide by Oracle). It still shows error. Last test I put the space like 1 111,111.00 in a single record update it shows error (but if I put 1 in front of 111,111 without space it's ok-no space before). My point is from user point of view.In the first time user input 100000 the software accept it. Opp! it has to be 1100000. The user comes back after submit and put 1 without comma.It shows error (in tabular form with multiple record update not in single row update). While in the first time the user do not to key any comma at all. This may makes some confuses both the users and the developers which had to check error by adding program to checking some where in Page Processing or Page Rendering.
    Thanks

    hello

    256mb ram
    60gb hdd
    p4 2.4 ghz
    win xp pro sp2
    I want to know if my pc will be able to run " Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) " standard edition on it.
    <<http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winsoft.html>>
    I thought of increasing RAM, but it is not feasible.
    I know i could run oracle XE, but can my pc also run the standard edition.
    I could not find minimum hardware requirements for standard edition on this site.
    anyway, i will use it for sql and and other advanced concepts in RDBMS which i may learn during my course in database. so i prefer standard edition instead of XE
    any help greatly appreciated
    thanks in advance

    You need to download 10.1.0.1 from OTN and then download 10.1.0.4 patch from metalink to patch up to 10.1.0.4.
    There's no direct 10.1.0.4 download.
