OBIEE 11g 64-bit install on Windows 64-bit

I wanted to solicit any experiences that the user forum is having with installing 11g on a 64-bit Windows platform. I understand that the Admintool/Job Manager will not run with the 64-bit installation package but we can install the newly released Client install to circumvent this. I am seeing many forums out there in which the 64-bit OBIEE install is done as Simple or Enterprise. My understanding is that this is useless as the bundled WebLogic utilizes at 32-bit JVM. There is a Doc ID out on Metalink (ID 1220564.1) that states one can only do a Software Install. So we have proceeded with the following steps of downloading first the Java 64-bit JVM, then a WebLogic instance utilizing the 64-bit JVM (java -D64 -jar xxx.jar) and finally the OBIEE Software Only install.
The issue we are running into is that the Install fails when attempting to start the OPMN. So during the install the "Executing:opmnctl start coreapplication_obips1
" fails and references the OPMN not starting. We are unable to start the OPMN service as well. We have a static IP, so this not the known issue with the loopback adapter. The other issue I saw was having to install the VC++ 2005 SP1 libraries per another Metalink Doc ID (1226254.1). This was all done, however, the install continues to fail.
It seems the lack of knowledge from support as well as the vague/lack of documentation is frustrating. I just wanted to ping the OTN community around this scenario.

Thanks Paul, really appreciate the update. Spent this morning rebuilding our environment with 64-bit (Win 2008) and starting from scratch. The install has now succeeded. I tell you one thing you pointed out is something we noticed when we proceeded with the second install. That was the WebLogic version. I had initially used .4 and on the second install we used .3. I am guessing that this may have been the issue.
I will verify with our Oracle resources and I hope this post will assist other when doing the 64-bit install as I think it is very vague in the documentation.
I will update the post with Oracles response as well.
Just as an FYI... the reason this issue came up in the first place was we did an Enteprise Install on 64-bit and found that the Gauge Charts weren't working in the SampleAppLite Subject Area. So I will add that to the Tags for this post.
Hope this post helps others and they don't go through the headaches of a wrong install type.

  • Jdeveloper 11g cannot be installed on Windows with Thai regional settings

    I have no idea where to properly submit this issue. Hope I do not abuse this forum for too much.
    Jdeveloper 11g cannot be installed on Windows with Thai regional settings configuration.
    I've got "A fatal error has occurred. This application will terminate" error dialog, while installing.
    I have to change my regional settings to English then install it and change my setting back later.
    Regards

    Sigh... This forum software doesn't even support image posting.
    The error is every easy to reproduce.
    1. On Windows XP, goto "Control Panel" -> "Regional and Language Options" -> "Standards and format"; and change that to "Thai"
    2. Invoke "jdevstudio11110install.exe"
    3. Always click "Next" until the error dialog appear.
    <pre>
    . Exit [x] .
    . [!] A fatal error has occurred. This application will .

    From my experience, this always have something to do with the Buddhist Era year system (AD + 543).

  • OBIEE 11g as a service in windows

    Here are the steps to configure OBIEE 11g as windows service.
    Admin server and bi server needs to be configured as service.
    Create boot.properties files with weblogic admin username and password in security folder.
    Here are the changes I made to make it work. I created two copies of installsvc.cmd file in wls_home/server/bin and renamed them to be used in scripts and make changes.
    One for admin server and other for node manager (bi server).
    cmd file for admin server.
    SETLOCAL
    set DOMAIN_NAME=bifoundation_domain
    set USERDOMAIN_HOME=D:\BI\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain
    set SERVER_NAME=AdminServer
    set MEM_ARGS=-Xms256m -Xmx512m
    cd %USERDOMAIN_HOME%
    call %USERDOMAIN_HOME%\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd
    call "D:\BI\wlserver_10.3\server\bin\installSvc_Admin.cmd" --see comment below.
    ENDLOCAL
    Added delay parameter.(it is in milliseconds)
    rem *** Install the service
    "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\beasvc" -install -svcname:"beasvc %DOMAIN_NAME%_%SERVER_NAME%" -delay:120000 -javahome:"%JAVA_HOME%" -execdir:"%USERDOMAIN_HOME%" -maxconnectretries:"%MAX_CONNECT_RETRIES%" -host:"%HOST%" -port:"%PORT%" -extrapath:"%EXTRAPATH%" -password:"%WLS_PW%" -cmdline:%CMDLINE%
    CMD file to start BI server and make it wait for the admin server to come up.
    SETLOCAL
    set DOMAIN_NAME=bifoundation_domain
    set USERDOMAIN_HOME=D:\BI\user_projects\domains\bifoundation_domain
    set ORACLE_BI_HOME=d:\BI\Oracle_BI1
    set SERVER_NAME=bi_server1
    set PRODUCTION_MODE=true
    set ADMIN_URL=t3://hostname:7001 - if you are using ssl it is should be t3s
    set MEM_ARGS=-Xms256m -Xmx512m
    cd %USERDOMAIN_HOME%
    call %USERDOMAIN_HOME%\bin\setDomainEnv.cmd
    call "D:\BI\wlserver_10.3\server\bin\install_OBIEE_Svc.cmd"
    ENDLOCAL
    In install_OBIEE_Svc.cmd (copy of installsvc.cmd) file added dependency and delay parameter
    rem *** Install the service
    "%WL_HOME%\server\bin\beasvc" -install -svcname:"beasvc %DOMAIN_NAME%_%SERVER_NAME%" -dependency:"beasvc bifoundation_domain_AdminServer" -delay:12000 -javahome:"%JAVA_HOME%" -execdir:"%USERDOMAIN_HOME%" -maxconnectretries:"%MAX_CONNECT_RETRIES%" -host:"%HOST%" -port:"%PORT%" -extrapath:"%EXTRAPATH%" -password:"%WLS_PW%" -cmdline:%CMDLINE%
    I have tested it and it works.
    Provide feed back to this thread, works or fails. This allows me to update the comments with solution to any problem faced.

    Hi
    Have managed to run oc4j as a service as follows under xp pro
    Download runexescv from http://www.judoscript.com/goodies/index.html
    Unpack and run
    Create service say OracleOc4j
    Needs basic parameters setup
    Cmdline and Home
    My setup is
    debug=false
    cmdline=c:\ora9ias\jdk\bin\java - Dorg.omg.CORBA. ORBClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB -Dorg.omg.CORBA.ORBSingletonClass=com.inprise.vbroker.orb.ORB -Doracle.security.jazn.config=c:\ora9ias\j2ee\Oracle9iDS\config\jazn.xml -Doracle.home=c:\ora9ias -DORACLE_HOME=c:\ora9ias -jar c:\ora9ias\j2ee\home\oc4j.jar -userThreads -config c:\ora9ias\j2ee\Oracle9iDS\config\server.xml
    ( all from startinst.bat )
    home=C:\ora9ias\j2ee\home\
    Save and close
    Oracleoc4j will now be set up as service
    Change service to auto and start service !!
    Appears to be neat and easy way of setting up an OC4J service

  • ITunes Rolldback During Install On  Windows 64 Bit

    Just upgraded my machine to 64 Bit Windows Ultimate and am trying to install the 64 bit version of iTunes, each time I try it gets to copying files before it rollsback and says iTunes could not be installed at this time. I have tried removing all traces of the files and directories and installing in other directories but I am having no luck installing the program

    @GuardianOfLight,
    Yes, this Apple Mobile Device Support (AMDS) problem is what I've been talking with Apple Support on since 4/1/10. Basically, AMDS is not being installed and there is no way to install it individually.
    From before I contacted Apple Support and since then, I would say that I've done about 6 complete uninstalls and re-installs including creating installation log files. From the log file, which is thousands of lines long, I have identified (and told Apple) that netaapl64.inf is either missing or in the wrong format in the iTunes 64-bit installation. It is one of the files needed for AMDS installation and when the iTunes Install fails to open it, the AMDS installation part of the iTunes 64-bit install is backed out.
    Apple Support will be reviewing all the info that I've provided early this week. They've been kind of busy with the iPad
    I'll post an update (hopefully, a solution) as soon as I have that.

    Pl identify exact version of Win 7 - you will need Professional version or higher - Home versions are not supported. Pl verify you meet all of the pre-reqs for the install as identified in the Install Guide - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e16774/pre_install.htm

  • Why does iTunes 64-bit install in the 32-bit Program Files folder?

    If "iTunes 8.2.1 for Windows (64 bit)" is really a 64 bit application then why does the installer want to put the program into C:\Program Files (x86)\ on Vista 64-bit instead of C:\Program Files\? Is this just sloppy work by the Apple programmers or is this the first sign of potentially more problems with iTunes 64-bit?

    If "iTunes 8.2.1 for Windows (64 bit)" is really a 64 bit application
    It's not.

  • Installing two OBIEE 11g instances in a single windows machine

    Dear Experts
    As a part of one of the client requirements , I need to install and configure two instances of OBIEE11g in a single windows server 2003.
    Is it possible , and if you could let know how to achieve that. Here I mean would I be able to run two rpd 's and catalogs. Can I use differnt port and differnt weblogic domain for the same.
    Pls. respond..
    Regds

    Hi,
    Yes ofcourse, we can have two instances on the same machine. However, we need to make sure that they do not conflict each other for the ports/node manager etc. Apart from this, I understand that you have to obey to some restrictions too here.
    1. Starting/Stopping BI Components needs to have a variable BI_SERVER_HOME set in the system. Now that you have two homes, I think you cannot set this. However, you can still start/stop BI Services through command line.
    May be others can add in their opinion here.
    Thank you,
    Dhar

  • Installing Oracle 11g client 32 bit, on a windows 64 bit platform

    Hi all,
    I was searching the forum and came and found out that PL/SQL developer is only 32 bit for the time being and can only be used with a 32 bit oracle client. I need to use PL/SQL developer so I want to know that will a 32 bit client work perfectly with the 64 bit windows 7? Or will there be any issues?

  • Can't Run JDeveloper 11g on JDK 6_13 for Windows 64-bit

    Hi all,
    When I attempt to run JDeveloper 11g (base install), and select my java.exe file from my JDK 6_13x64 installation I get the following error message:
    "Unable to find Java Virtual Machine.
    "To point to a location of a Java Virtual Machine, please refer to the Oracle9i JDeveloper Install Guide (jdev\install.html)."
    In addition to the incorrect version number, the JDeveloper Install Guide makes no mention of this problem. I've found a few posts on this forum where people had this problem, but they're all pretty old, and none of them got satisfactory answers. A few possibilities mentioned in those posts that I've eliminated are as follows:
    - I've confirmed that this is, indeed, the JDK, not just a JRE.
    - This is the production version of JDeveloper 11g, not a technical preview, so it shouldn't require 1.5.
    - There are no spaces in the paths to either the JDK or JDeveloper.
    Has anyone found a solution to this problem?
    Thanks much,
    Avrom

    Thanks, Shay. That does seem to work, and will suffice as a workaround for now. But are there plans to make JDeveloper compatible with the 64-bit edition of Java? It would be nice to get what I assume is a substantial performance enhancement from using it.
    10:06 PM: Actually, it doesn't work very well. JDeveloper will start, but it has a lot of stability problems; it seems to freeze at 100% CPU usage (well, 25%, but I'm on a quad processor) at the drop of a hat, such as when I minimize, walk away for 90 minutes, and come back--once it even did it just when I tried to create a new application. I've installed this version of JDev on a 32-bit system and have found it to be generally quite stable, so I assume this is a problem with my setup.

  • MKS Toolkit 9.2    32 bit or 64 bit  install on Windows Server 2008 64 bit

    Hi Hussein,
    I have single node installation with the below
    12.1.3 is running on Windows Server 2008 (32 bit) with 11.1.0.7 database (32 bit).
    We would like to split the DB Tier to 64 bit Machine and convert the database from 32bit yo 64 bit database to get benefits from 64bit database.
    Hence, Need to prepare other machine with 64bit windows server 2008 machine with 64 bit oracle software. I would like to install MKS Tool Kit 9.2. Here I have doubt that, which MKS Toolkit bit version 32 bit or 64 bit needs to install on 64 bit OS?
    Please advise...

    Hi,
    You will need to have the 64-bit version of the software installed.
    Thanks,
