Oracle 10g and windows Vista

Hi,
I had installed Oracle 10g in my system.
Operating System is Windows Vista.
When I open sqlplusw and login as Scott User... I get the following errors
1. SP2 - 1503 : Unable to Initialize Oracle call Interface
2. SP2 - 0152 : Oracle may not be funtioning Properly
And the window close immediately.
Can anybody provide a pointer to it... :)

Then how can I install .... Oracle 10g in Vista.. Is there any wayYou can't. Well, you can try but be prepared for a lot of frustration.
Some users got it to install, others have had all kinds of problems.
Either way, it's not supported by Oracle.

  • External table in Oracle 10g and Windows server 2003 problem

    I'm having a problem accessing an external table in an Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 server environment. The disk is remote (mapped) to the server. It's the usual access errors, kup-04001 or kup-04063.
    I have the [seemingly] exact same setup in an Oracle 9i and Windows 2000 server environment which works perfectly. Services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    In the Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 environment, services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the mapped disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    This obviously effects mappings, deployments, etc.
    Does anyone know if something changed in either the db or the os?
    Thank you,

    Thank you for your reply.
    Your proposal is the standard solution. As a matter of fact, that's how it is on my "old" system. Server "A" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM. Server "B" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM and is where the flat files reside. SYSTEM has full permissions on a disk local to Server "B". Database directoriies defined on Server "A" point to Server "B" remote disk. External Tables on Server "A" are defined with directories that point to Server "B" remote (mapped) disk. I have no problems with this configuration.
    I'm having a problem acheiving the same configuration with Oracle 10g and Windows 2003. I guess I'm baffled over the fact it isn't working the same way as my "old" environment. Why shouldn't it? Oracle (and you) want me to start services as a specific user. It shouldn't have to be that way unless something changed in the way the database makes calls to the os or if Microsoft slipped something in with one of it's numerous security patches.

  • Error Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Vista

    I have just bought new Laptop with Intel Core Solo Processor U1500 (1.33 Ghz) and 1Gb Ram, and Windows Vista Business Edition.
    When I ran Oracle 10g Enterprise Edition Setup on my laptop, setup asked for Administrative Password and then Unknown Error Occured, any idea what could be the problem ?
    Regards,
    Luqman

    You didn't mention if you have Vista Home Premium or Vista Home Basic. Whether Vista is 32-bit or 64-bit version. Nor did you mention which version of oracle software you downloaded and used to install.
    I have installed Oracle 10g Enterprise on Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit. It does work. However, I downloaded and used the version of Vista 32-bit.
    So, did you use the version of Windows Vista 32-bit or not?
    What is the error message?
    People can not help you unless you tell use the error message.

  • Oracle 10g express, Windows Vista and Visual Studio 2005

    Hello,
    I have Oracel 10g express and Visual Studio 2005 professional, all installed on Windows Vista and working fine.
    I want to use the .net tools but I have had problems to install the wright version for this environment. Has anybody have this same configuration working? What are the downloads I need to have and the steps to have the .net oracle tools working ?

    It can be done:
    1) Download and install XE. Don't download the special "ODT for XE"
    2) Download and install ODAC 11g with ODT into a different directory than XE
    3) Copy over the TNSNAMES.ORA from the XE install into the new Oracle home.

    I found this solution in http://msutic.blogspot.com/2009/08/how-to-instal-oracle-client-11g-on.html
    It work for me. I´ve installed a Oracle 10.2.0.4 (vista e w2k8 x64) in a Windows 7 64 bits.
    Thanks to Marko Sutic !
    ========================================================
    To workaround this problem I've decided to edit refhost.xml file adding entry for Windows 7.
    * in production there are 2 files refhost.xml. I´ve edited both.
    Location of this file on my system:
    .\stage\prereq\db\refhost.xml
    .\stage\prereq\db_prereqs\db\refhost.xml
    This is excerpt from newly edited refhost.xml file:
    <CERTIFIED_SYSTEMS>
    <!--Microsoft Windows 7-->
    <OPERATING_SYSTEM>
    <VERSION VALUE="6.1"/>
    </OPERATING_SYSTEM>
    </CERTIFIED_SYSTEMS>
    New lines are added at the end of this excerpt after <!--Microsoft Windows 7-->. Notice version value=6.1.
    In addiction to Marko Sutic tip, I´ve edited too the file ./install/oraparam.ini adding the new value (6.1) to the message:
    [Certified Versions]
    #You can customise error message shown for failure, provide value for CERTIFIED_VERSION_FAILURE_MESSAGE
    Windows=5.0,5.1,5.2,6.0,6.1
    I´ve finished now the installation, and all sounds good.
    good luck

  • Oracle 10g and Windows 2008

    I'm trying to install Oracle 10g x86 on Windows 2008 x64. Installation crashes in the beginning with the next error message:
    Abnormal program termination. An internal error has occurred. Please provide the following files to Oracle Support:
    "Unknown"
    "Unknown"
    "Unknown"
    Any objections?

    What do you mean when you say "I'm trying to install Oracle 10g x86 on Windows 2008 x64" You are trying to install an x86 Oracle edition on a 64 bit OS. This is not certified yet. In fact if you take a look at the certify matrix you will find that the 64 bit platform is not certified yet, but it is planned for this year.
    The only available edition so far for Win2008 is x86. Patience is advisable.

  • Oracle database and Windows Vista

    When trying to install Oracle database products (9i as well as 10g), I'm politely told that there were known compatibility problems prohibiting installation of Oracle on Vista. Any known way around this? Any schedule for a Vista compatible version of Oracle?

    I've sucessfully installed 10gR2 on Vista Bussines
    setting the Windows XP SP2 compatibility mode on the
    setup.exe file and completly disabling DEP.
    Hope this helps ...great, of course this helps. My hat is off to you - I mean, setting compatibility mode for setup.exe is a essentially a no-brainer but how on earth did you manage to find out about DEP having impact on the setup. .
    Can we assume that the installation works,i.e. instance up, mounted and anxiously awaits being provided with data? Listener(s) listen and talk as expected?

  • Oracle 9i in windows vista

    Dear all,
    I am trying to install oracle 9i release 1 into a laptop running windows vista. the installation is very very slow and terminate with an error.
    Is Vista not compatible with oracle 9i? What if i install oracle 10g in windows vista?
    Please someone to assist me.
    Thanks in advance

    Windows vista doesn't seem to be worried about old software, and oracle doesn't seem to be worried about upgrading old software. Oracle 9iR1 is not supported for Windows Vista, the only supported and certified version is 10gR2 specific for windows vista (10.2..0.3.0).

  • How to Install Oracle 11g on Windows Vista

    Hi Everyone, this is Abhinay here i am a Graduate Student from Electronics and i am planning to shift to CS background the main thing i want to know from you guys is " A structured procedure of Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Vista"- So can any one of you guys help me out??????????

    Hi, how are you doing ?
    Just one advice about it. If you want to work with Oracle databases, it will be better to install it on certified OS's. Doing so, you will get better experience and more realistic experience on it.
    Following the Oracle database documentation, you will get all that you need to successfully install the database in the certified OS.

    I have a problem with Oracle XE installed on my laptop 1GB RAM with Windows Vista :).
    It installed ok, but when I run my program (Visual Foxpro 9) it stays 30 seconds up to a minute to make a few selections.
    The same program on my laptop works fine with other databases installed on windows xp or windows 2003 server.
    Also, from other computers I can connect to Oracle XE on Windows Vista and make those selections fine.
    I uninstalled Oracle XE from my laptop.
    I downloaded Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows Vista and I installed it.
    It's the same problem.
    On my laptop, my program (VFP9 - connects through ODBC) or PLSQL Developer freeze when I do a select from a table with 72053 rows (the result has 2000 rows).
    If I connect from another computer, where I installed Oracle Instant Client from Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.3) for Vista, the select runs instantaneously :)
    My head hurts very much at this time.
    We bought the laptop with Vista OEM for presentations :) - it's unusable at this point :)
