Oracle 10g Express and Windows Vista

I am new to Express and this forum. I have been searching the Oracle site to see when Express will be Vista ready. I found some info that there are some tweeks that you can do to trick it to working on Vista. I would like to know when there will be an official release that is Vista compatible. Thanks PM

Well, I posted this and then I did find a document that talks about the 10g Release 2 supports VISTA with some exceptions. Thanks PM

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 :)

Oracle 10g R2 and Windows Vista

Hello,
Our company has chosen Oracle as our DB standard and I'll have to migrate a medium-sized database running on Windows from MS-SQL Server to Oracle 10g R2. But I need to do an evaluation on my desktop. Is Oracle 10g already available on Windows Vista? If not, what are the plans?
Note: can I do the evaluation on Windows XP professional? I'd prefer Windows Vista Premium because I have it running on a much faster machine.
Your advice will be appreciated.

Only Oracle Express Edition is currently supported on Windows Vista.
Furthermore, Vista Premium won't be a supported edition anyway.
Take a look to the Oracle Statement Of Direction

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

Can we install oracle 10g database on Windows Vista Home Edition?

You didn't specify which Oracle10 Edition.
In the case of SE/SE one/EE, with a paid license Supported has a mean impact on production environments with paid licenses, since you wouldn't run on an unsupported platform facing the risk of being left without technical support from Oracle in case of an emerging issue.
For the XE Edition, this is not a certified combination, since the only certified editions are the Business, Enterprise, and the Ultimate editions, but you can try it, you don't have nothing to loose, supported, certified vs. unsupported in this case makes no difference since this XE is not supported either way (no patchsets, no bug fixes, no technical support from metalink), just an AS IS free software.
On the license agreement terms displayed when you download the XE software it states:
"No Technical Support
Our technical support organization will not provide technical support, phone support, or updates to you for the programs licensed under this agreement."
and
"THE PROGRAMS ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. WE FURTHER DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS AND IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY OR FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE."
In case someone would be able to win a trial against oracle due to damage from the use of this software, the amount paid at maximum is 1,000.00 USD, not enough to even pay the lawyer's lunches.
For the XE users the primary source of 'kind of support' is the oracle forums, either the installation forum, the general database or the specialized XE forum.
Of course if this is for your own personal use for learning and testing and there are no third parties you could damage by doing this and if you don't have a paid license for this installation you may try it, but don't expect the Enterprise Manager to behave as defined by the manual, most of it won't work since the Home Edition doesn't have the privileges required for EM to work.
If this is your personal computer and when you bought it the computer provider installed from factory Home Edition, and if you want something to work there, you can try to install a Virtual Machine and install Oracle 10g on a supported guest OS.

Airport Express and Windows Vista

I cannot get the Airport Express software to recognize the Airport Express in Windows Vista. I installed the software and the setup assistant doesn't even show up. Any recommendations?

Ah Ha!
I have been waiting patiently for the last few weeks for posts to come up on this subject.
I have had the same problems. My new samsung sets up a wireless contection with the aiport wonderfully but as airport admin assistant does not install with the 4.2 version I cannot configure hence set a password or any security. It cannot be done through utility as it does not recognise the airport as being there.
A long sequence of phone calls with a lady from apple confirmed they are aware of the problem. Apparently the 5.1 version does install in vista (although its existance maybe a myth).
The funny thing is that you cannot tell what version is in the box. The staff in the apple stores do not know either. So I have ended up buying three airports opening the packaging, finding the wrong software and then getting a refund. Just like charlie lookig for the golden ticket.
They are of course selling loads of these to PC users and most of these will now be using vista if they have new PC's. So lots should be being returned. A serious problem for their cross platform marketing plan.
Apple! a sticker saying not compatible with vista would have saved me alot of hassel.

Oracle 10g express and jdevloper 10g

hi,
i created a connection via the graphic mode of jdev10g, but i didn't find the way how to use this connection.
i am using oracle 10g express
somebody can help me

A JDBC connection may be used as a JNDI resource.
If the Connections-Navigator connection is DBConnection1, the corresponding datasource is jdbc/DBConnection1DS.
1. Create a JSP page or a servlet.
2. In the web.xml of the web application add
<resource-ref>
<res-ref-name>jdbc/DBConnection1DS</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
3. In the JSP page or servlet obtain a connection with the datasource.
InitialContext initialContext = new InitialContext();
javax.sql.DataSource ds = (javax.sql.DataSource)initialContext.lookup("java:comp/env/jdbc/DBConnection1DS");
java.sql.Connection conn = ds.getConnection();

Installation of Oracle 10g XE in Windows Vista home premium

CAn anyone please help me out with this issue.

I didn't realize Vista Home Premium wasn't supported, so I went ahead and installed Oracle 10g R2 standard edition and then personal edition on 64-bit Vista Home Premium. The only problem I've had is that the DB Console doesn't work, which is why I came to this forum and thread. All I get is a blank page with a few chicken scratches, but everything else has been working so far. I've had to revert to command line SQL Plus, and I just imported a couple million rows from an export done on a Solaris server, so go figure. Obviously I'm not using it for a production database, but for my purposes so far it's done OK.

Which version of oracle have you installed?According to the dcoumentation,
Do not install Oracle Database on Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008 using the media for Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2) for Microsoft Windows. Do not use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista or the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media to install on operating systems other than Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008.
Oracle Database is supported on Windows Vista with the 10.2.0.3 release. If you used the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista media, then Oracle recommends that you install the 10.2.0.4 patch set. You do not need to use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media.
For new installations on Windows Vista or Windows Server 2008, use the Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3.0) for Microsoft Windows Vista and Microsoft Windows Server 2008 media. This new software is available in the updated media pack

How can i remove manually oracle 10g express edition from vista

hello
i use windows vista
how can i remove manually oracle 10 g express edition
please help

1. Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
2. Delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key which contains registry entries for all Oracle products by using regedit.
3. Delete any references to Oracle services/components in the following registry location: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/. Looks for key entries that starts with “Ora” which are obviously related to Oracle.
4. Reboot the workstation.
5. Delete the ORACLE_BASE directory. (i.e C:\Oracle)
6. Delete the C:\Program Files\Oracle directory.
7. Empty the temp directory.
8. Empty the recycle bin.
have you done this?

Oracle warehouse builder and windows vista

Hello All, I need to install oracle warehouse builder on PC with Windows Vista but Oracle Setup close installation program because it find JavaVirtualMachine (JRE) rel.6.0 but it need max jre 5.2.

Marco Frosini

Hi,
I guess Marco confused the Installer message
==============
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2 . Actual 6.0
Failed <<<<
Exiting Oracle Universal Installer, log for this session can be found at C:\Prog
ram Files\Oracle\Inventory\logs\installActions2007-07-08_12-43-29PM.log
Please press Enter to exit...
===========================
As I see it, It checkes the OS version, which is 6.0 for Vista (an internal version no), however, the installer supports only till 5.2. By my understanding its not the JRE version, but the OS version.
Besides this small misinterpretation, Has anybody found any way of installing OWB on Vista ?? I have Vista business on a HP laptop, and I NEED to run OWB...
All help is greatly appreciated...

Installation of Oracle 10g Database on Windows Vista Home Basic

Hi All,
I'm confused about the possibility of installing Oracle 10g Database Server in Windows Home Basic Operating System with Service Pack 1. Please help me out with a confirmation.
Thanks in advance
Prasanth

Hi Prasanth
Yes that should be possible but is it a production database or just a test database.
you can always control that in metalink if it is supported, I don't believe it is.
Read that documentation to perform the installation.

Problem installing Oracle 10g Express on Windows XP

I have downloaded and installed the software and it appears to work (can use command line SQL). However I cannot get the browser interface to work - I have checked all of the settings mentioned in the installation notes. Ideas on how to debug/fix? Many thanks

Hmm very funny...
1. No error message or specific behaviour provided
2. Look at forum section name (Linux)
Installation section is located here:
