OCX errors went installing Oracle 8i personal edition

I downloaded the zip for 8i personal edition. When trying to install it I repeatedly got errors that the OCX could not be registered. Can someone tell me how to correct this?

It is not possible installing Oracle in WINDOWS ME platform, because this won't support for ORACLE. Unfortunately ORACLE also have no version for WINDOWS ME. If possible, upgrade your OS to WINDOWS 2000 or downgrade to WINDOWS 98 and try it.

Cannot install Oracle 8i (Personal Edition) 8.1.7 on Windows 98 (Second Edition)

Hello,
I am unable to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition on my Windows 98 (Second Edition) system. I have selected "typical" install. All the files get installed (100% complete) but then the Configuration Tool install phase fails to complete when installing Oracle Database Configuration Assistant. I get the following error message :
java.lang.NullpointerException
at DropOracle.QueryDB(Compiled Code)
at DeletePanel.InitControls(Compiled Code)
at DeletePanel.<init>(DeletePanel.java:100)
at DBCreateWizard.<init>(DBCReateWizard.java:569)
at DBCreateWizard.main(DBCreateWizard.java:1422)
The system just hangs with the "in progress" message.
The previous step -
The Net8 Configuration Assistant install completes successfully
(return code 0).
If anyone can help me resolve my problem it will be greatly appreciated.
Or if you could tell me which Oracle email address (or phone number) I should address my problem to it will be appreciated. I do NOT have a Oracle Support Licence (I only purchased the evaluation CD pack).
I have installed Java 2 (JDK 1.3) in a separate directory - but I understand Oracle 8i has its own version of JRE 1.1... in its own subdirectory structure ... so my JDK 1.3 should not be interfering with the Oracle 8i installation programs.
Many thanks in advance.

What is your RAM? I ran into the same problem, even though I had more RAM then required. I had to shutdown everything, make a very basic wallpaper that did not put too much strain on the system, then it installed.
Unistall Oracle, remove all the remaining files and the directory by hand. Also you have to remove any trace of Oracle in your regedit. Check if path to Oracle is still in autoexec.bat; if it is delete it - the Oracle path not the file. Reboot and then do Alt-Ctr-Del and turn off all the unecessary programs and try installing it again.
Hope it works.

Under Win 98SE (Personal Oracle 8i)creation of database - very

Installing Oracle 10g personal edition

Hi,
I am trying to install Oracle 10g personal edition on ubuntu. After installing I ran the following command: /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure and by mistake gave a port number for HTTP port on which already another server is running. But now I am unable to change my configuration settings.
Everytime I give the command /etc/init.d/oracle-xe configure it says "Oracle Database 10g Express Edition is already configured"
How can I change the configuration setting now? Do I need to reinstall it? Would be a great help, if somebody can tell me.
Thanks,
tulip

Installing Oracle 8i Personal Edition in Win98

Hi,
Would like to find out if there is any issue in installing Oracle 8i Personnal Edition in windows ME.
I have this error message when I tried to install the programme.
"Jrew has caused an error in JAVAI.DLL. Jrew will now close."
Anyone can help ??
Thanks a million... :)
Alvin Tan

It won't work on ME. Look back in the discussion forum about a month ago, some people wrote in about how you might change your registry to get it to work. Didn't work on my system though. Good luck!

Receiving error when trying to install Oracle 8i Personal Edition

I'm trying to install 8i personal edition, and the installer is attempting to use this file as the stage file: D:\stage\products.jar. I can only assume its corrupt. Can anyone help me?
Steve

The error message I get on the install is, "INVALID STAGING AREA. NO TOP LEVEL COMPONENTS FOR WINDOWS 95 AVAILABLE FOR INSTALL." The install is using C:\WINDOWS\TEMP\INSTALL\STAGE\ PRODUCTS.JAR, which is where the UNZIP placed the components. The 8i Personal Edition I downloaded was for Windows 98, so I don't understand why it's looking for Windows 95 components. Also, I have Windows ME, not Windows 98, but I assume this download should work for Windows ME?

OCX error during install of 8i personal ed on win 98 OS

I continue to get an OCX error during the installation of the personal edition that was downloaded from the site. I read some workarounds like the following:
1. Obtain patch 1507768 from Oracle Support Services via Metalink.
See Patch readme for patch installation details. [I can't get the patch because I am using the free download version]
2.
a) Copy the content of the Installation to a temporary folder on the harddisk,
rename ALL copies of file 'symcjit.dll'
b) Go to folder \install and edit file 'oraparam.ini' (attention: write
protection) and change parameter JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS to
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m
c) Start the installation again
[I made the suggested changes to the above files and that didn't work. Any ideas of what I should do?]

I've made a little progress ... after downloading and unzipping the 8i files, right click on the setup program's icon, select properties, then select the compatibility tab, and choose Windows98/ME. Then, go to http://jcay.com/symcjit.zip and download this later version of symcjit.dll and replace the existing symcjit.dll. After these steps, the setup program started and I got about halfway through the installation when I got "Warning: JIT compiler "symcjit" not found. WIll use interpreter."
I have no idea what to try next??????

Installing Oracle 9i Personal Edition on XP

Hi, I am trying to install 9i Personal Edition on my Dell PC running XP. It gets 2% complete and gives me an error "Invalid Staging Area. There are no top level components for Windows NT for installion in this staging area." Another problem is that I am accessing our other oracle databases from this desktop and after this install fails it screws up my registry entries so bad that none of my montoring tools work and I have to manually fix it. Any suggestions?

Do you have any oracle products currently installed?

I am unable to install 8i personal edition Release 3 onto my W2K machine. I download the zip file and unzip it into (c:/OracleInstall) a folder I have created on my c:/ drive. When i click on the setup.exe file it opens up. When I click on the install button the GUI disappers and nothing occurs. I have attempted to burn it onto a CD_Rom and install through the control panel and the same occurs.
I am not sure what is causing this problem. Is there any why I could request the software in a CD as opposed to a zip file? What could be causing this problem? Is the machine a P4? there is a known problem

Hi
Here's the resolution that can work for you:
Disable the "Print Spooler" service before running the installer.
1.Open Control Panel: Start --> Settings --> Control Panel
2.Double-click "Services"
3.On the list of NT Services, right-click "Print Spooler"
4.Select "Stop"
5.Select "Properties"
6.Under Startup Type, select "manual" or "disabled"
7.Reboot your NT Server
8.After rebooting, verify that the Print Spooler is still "stopped".
9.Delete Program Files\Common Files\Installshield\Engine folder
10.Re-run the installer.
11.After installation, re-set the Print Spooler service to Startup type "Automatic" and start the service.
Also, have a look at the installshield page: http://consumer.installshield.com/kb.asp?id=Q108167

Installing Oracle 8i Personal Edition on Home Computer

I'm installing Oracle 8i from CD included in SQL text book.
Unzipping of files goes well. System locks up right
after "setup" screen, showing the message, "updating System PATH

system. Any suggestions on how to successfully compete the
installation?
2nd issue: When starting SQL Plus using the above mentioned

get around this dialogue box, especially knowing that this home

go to caldera.com and search for oracle installation. you'll have to download glibc, jdk, jre and upgrade them.
Caldera have very good source for this problem. I encounter the same error and got it fixed.
