Oracle 8.1.5 for NT installation Windows XP proffessional

Oracle 8.1.5 for NT is installed on windows XP Proffessional. Installation time SID = ORCL815. Oracle TNSListner service and oracle webAssistant service are started. But oracle serviceORCL815 status is showing as starting when startup type is Automatic. If startup type is manual and when I am stating it this gives "error 1053: The service did not respond to the start, or control request in a timely fashion".
Now the documentation says "ORA-01053 user storage address cannot be read
Cause: A bind variable or other user area could not be read by Oracle.
Action: Check that binds are done correctly on valid user buffers, then retry the operation.
So what will be the solution to start the oracle service.

Rick,
I just mailed you the code and instructions for a work-around. However, we strongly advise you to upgrade to 8.1.6 or 8.1.7 !

Oracle Portal 3.0 for NT installation problems.. HELP!!!

this is what shows up when I try to access my portal page:
Call to WPG_SESSION API Failed.
Error-Code:6550
Error TimeStamp:Wed, 06 Dec 2000 19:09:23 GMT
Database Log In Failed
TNS is unable to connect to destination. Invalid TNS address supplied or destination is not listening. This error can also occur because of underlying network transport problems.
Verify that the TNS name in the connectstring entry of the DAD for this URL is valid and the database listener is running.
Notes:
I'm running Oracle 8.1.6 on a different box then the Portal application. I loaded the Oracle Client on my machine(with Portal). I've gone through the Portal installation instructions many times and I'm almost certain I've configured everything correctly(but obviously not). I've also gone through the Net8 Assistant to see if I can get a connection and can.. I've made sure my db is up by using SQL Plus. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I thought I was out of the woods but have gotten some strange behavior. I'm able to work inside of the Portal application.. then I got this error..
Proxy log On failed.
Please verify that you have specified correct connectivity information i.e.username, password & connect-string in the Database Access Descriptor

This is sort of the same thing from before. As soon as it happened I tested things out like:
testing out the Oracle HTTP Server
- Apache
- Jserv (demo)
- modplsql
for connectivity. I'm able to click on the above links and see that they are working. Then I brought down the OracleportalHTTPServer service and restarted.
I then tried to use SQL Plus to test db connectivity using Username: internal Password:xxxx with the service name but it spits back:
TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process. It seems no matter who I try and login as using SQL Plus I get the same thing. As I mentioned before I have the db on another machine with the Portal application & Oracle 8.1.6 Client on my machine. I didn't configure anything after I installed the 8.1.6 Enterprise Edition.. I was able to bring up the Portal page with no problems. Am I missing something.. seems very strange that I'm able to work in the application for a bit and then have it die on me.
I jumped onto the machine with my db.. brought down the TNSListener on that end, brought down the db service (OracleServiceXXX)and brought it back up and was able to use SQL Plus on this machine and get a connection to the db. I then got back on my machine, brought down the OracleportalHTTPServer service on my side, brought it back up and used SQL Plus to show a connection to the db. Thoughts??

Oracle 8.1.6 for NT installation error

Hi, I have oracle 7.3 client installed on a NT server. I then installed 8.1.6 in a different directory. The installation hit an error on ms???.dll file. By ignoring the message, the installation is successful. I can connect to a Oracle database server vi sqlplus and query the table. While Access 97
will just hang when I try to link the table. Question, can I remove the ms???.dll and do
another install? Should I uninstall the 7.3 before I install 8.1.6. Any comments will be appreciated.

Oracle 8.1.7 for Unix and Windows 2000 Active Directory

Is it possible to integrate the users and passwords of an Oracle Database running on Solaris with the users and passwords defined in a Windows 2000 Active Directory? What are the requirements and the necesary steps?
I've read the documentation and it shows how to do it if you install Oracle in a Windows 2000 Server, but it does not mention about installing it in any kind of Unix.

You should consider to base your firm security and central user repository on REALLY SECURE and ROBUST product technology. Not on Windows 2000 Active Directory. Win2K AD is known to be slow and insecure. If you have Oracle on Solaris your data is secure and next step is to move user accounts to real user repository. It may be one of well-known LDAP servers. Try to read some materials on CERT Coordination Center (http://www.cert.org) which describe LDAP servers. After this you can choose the server which best suite your needs.

How do I define 2 disk groups for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window

Hello,
It may sound too easy to someone but I need to ask it anyway.
I am in the middle of building Oracle RAC 11.2.0.3 on Linux. I have 2 storage and I created three LUNs in each of storage so 6 LUNs in total look in both of servers. If I choose NORMAL as a redundancy level, is it right to choose my 6 disks those are created for OCR_VOTE at the grid installation? Or should I choose only 3 of them and configure mirroring at latter stage?
The reason why I am asking this is that I didn't find any place to create asm disk group for ocr and voting disks at the oracle grid infrastructure installation window. In fact, I would to like to create two disk groups in which one of groups contains three disks those were brought from storage 1 and the second one contains rest three 3 disk that come from the last storage.
I believe that you will understand the manner and help me on choosing proper way.
Thank you.

Hi,
You have 2 Storage H/W.
You will need to configure a Quorum ASMDisk to store a Voting Disk.
Because if you lose 1/2 or more of all of your voting disks, then nodes get evicted from the cluster, or nodes kick themselves out of the cluster.
You must have the odd number of voting disk (i.e 1,3 or 5) one voting disk per ASM DISK, So 1 Storage will hold more voting disk than another storage.
(e.g 3 Voting Disk - 2 voting stored in stg-A and 1 voting disk store in stg-B)
If fail the storage that hold the major number of Voting disk the whole cluster (all nodes) goes down. Does not matter if you have a other storage online.
It will happen:
https://forums.oracle.com/message/9681811#9681811
You must configure your Clusterware same as RAC extended

Best O/S for oracle apps 11.5.10.2 in windows family

Hi
we are planning to implement apps 11i.
Can you please recommend the best type of server to support Oracle application on Windows.
For example, does Oracle App support both 64bit and 32bit or just 32bit?
Where can i find this info.i googled but didnt got much info on this.even i searched for certification matrix in oracle support but it is not showing anything.please help me out.

Hi,
Can you please recommend the best type of server to support Oracle application on Windows.Are you referring to the hardware or the OS? If you are referring to the hardware, please see the following threads.

For the OS, you will have to go with a certified OS as per (Note: 316806.1 - Oracle Applications Installation Update Notes, Release 11i (11.5.10.2)).
Oracle Certification Matrix contains all the details about the OS certification (select Oracle E-Business Suite, then the Windows OS and the Application release).

Corrupt Data1.cab in Oracle Express 10g Universal for Windows

Hello Oracle Folks,
I downloaded several times Oracle Express 10g Universal for Windows (OracleXEUniv.exe) and tried to install it and I get every time the same error message: "Error 1335. The required file "Data1.cab" is corrupt and cannot be used ...". When I download the Western European Edition (OracleXE.exe) the installation works! I downloaded the file on different local disks to exclude the risk that my disk is damaged.
Can you please check if this download is sane!
Thanks and best regards Thomas Mayr

Amazing reply Hans.
I have seen some arrogent smart mouth answers in my time. But this really takes the cake. Also judging from the icon you are some kind of employee of oracle. Wow! Now that shows respect for your users.
Sorry to disappoint you - I am not an employee of Oracle. Much of your rant is irrelevant.
I am simply a person who has volunteered enough time to provide over 8,000 repsonses in these forums and many more in other forums.
Many, many, many of the questions are pure repetition due to the extreme laziness, incompetence or inability to do basic thinking by the questioners. There are also a lot of questions by 'newbies' who have obviously made an attempt to research the problem.
My approach to answering questions is simple and two-fold:
- make the person angry enough, or aware ennough, that they will think a bit when asking the next question;
- if they ask a question intelligently (http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html) I usually am convinced to help.
(And yes, I do take longer breaks when I find myself being frustrated enough to provide answers like the above.)
The stupid installation program for your stupid database was supposed to check the version of the Operating System. Anyway how does the operating system version matter if a cab file is corrupted? which was incidently packed in that stupid download link which you have happily given to all customers all this time. I was hoping to find that since you guys are too lazy to make the installation file properly you might have atleast bothered to put up a download link for that stupid Data1.cab. But nooo... The 'stupid installation program' is indeed that - a stupid installation program. It does a certain amount of checking, but definitely not enough. In that I do agree with you. It was also released too early - basrely understands how to spell Vista.
Also, there is an assumption by Oracle that the person downloading reads the documentation, especially the installation guide, that is available at the same location as the download. It is amazing and extremely disappointing to note how many people will not even attempt to look at the link.
The real sad part for me is that I frequently download software (and did again in this case) to verify that the user has a legitimate complaint. The 'data1.cab' that I received was not corrupt. Therefore I conclude the original poster made some huge assumption that is likely invalid. Now, I did install into an XP machine, and that could make a difference.
As for the 'you guys' statement - perhaps you should take that up with Oracle or an Oracle employee. Directing at me is an unsubstantiated assumption on your part. <g>
>
I wasted some time thinking I would check out the db for development, got the same error and after seeing your mealy mouthed response to that poor guy who was asking a valid question, I think I won't bother anymore. You see, there is this amazing thing called Linux and MySQL..
Yup. You could easily go there. Shows yet another assumption. (In fact, my company is centered around Linux and Oracle. And I have made a conscious decision, based on 3 decades of experience, to toss MySQL and stick with Oracle. And now that Sun, which owns MySQL, seems to be on the auction block, the future of MySQL is definitely up in the air.)
However, given how many assumptions you make and how valid they are, you may find it easier to stick with MySQL. Oracle Express edition potentially could save huge buckets of time and effort in the long run, but it does require reading, research and other skills to get up to speed.
Now, as to your problem
1) This is not the forum to discuss issues with installation. (If the problem is traced to the download source, then this is the right spot.)
2) There is a dedicated forum for Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Express Edition (Oracle Database Express Edition (XE)
3) You are absolutely correct that the installer should be smart enough to check the OS. It does not.
4) Since it does not, and since there are differences, knowing which version AND edition of Windows (or which Linux distro and release) is critical to troubleshooting.

Where can I get Oracle database server 9i for windows 2003

Hi,
I need Oracle Database Server 9i for Windows 2003. From Oracle online download, there is one a patch set available. Where can I get the full version?
Thanks
Laura

Hi, I found the solution. There is no software to direcly install Oracle 9i on Windows 2003. I need to install the software for NT/2000 first, the patch it.
That's why there is only patchset for 2003 for downloading. See the doc below:
three installation components required to install
Oracle9i Database release 2 (9.2.0.3.0) on Windows Server 2003. These three
installation components must be installed in the order listed. If you are
migrating a pre-existing Oracle9i database to Windows Server 2003, first
upgrade the database to the Oracle9i Database release 2 (9.2.0.3.0) patch set
before upgrading the operating system.
Obtain the following installation components:
Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2.0.1.0) for Windows
Oracle Universal Installer release 2.2.0.18.0 for Windows
Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2.0.3.0) Patch Set for Windows

Installation Oracle Reports 6i vs 2 NT on Windows XP

I want to install the reports 6i NT -CD on my Windows XP
and that doesn't work. The error after starting the setup is about orainst.exe. (of course it is working properly on windows-2000)
So the question is what can i do to get it working on Windows XP ? ( I make custom-reports for Oracle Applicatons financials 11i for our education company)
Anneke

Tom,
Thanks for replying.
I don't see what I can compile. The initial program I am trying to compile is very simple it has a connect statement followed by the definition of a cursor, the cursor is opened and the fetch is performed. The program crashes on performing the open of the cursor. It seems to me that Pro*C is producing C output that the comipilers, (cl.exe in the visual studio .Net IDE, or mingw gcc for win32), cannot turn into runnable code on the Windows XP Professional platform. Pro*C is not open source code so I cannot recompile that, Microsoft cl.exe is most definately not open source. gcc is open source and I suppose I could recompile that but surely the mingw win32 compiler should work as it is standard and widely used. Anyway the output of both the compilers fails. Maybe I will compile gcc for my installation but it seems to me like Pro*C is probably the culprit here and trying to run the Oracle 8.1.7 version on XP may not be possible. I posted here in case this is a known problem.
Another thought has just occured to me that maybe I should try running a 10g or 9i version of Pro*C on the 8.1.7 installation. How would I get this? Would I have to install the whole installations to get the binary?

What databse I have to install for SOA11g installation on Windows platform

Hi,
I want to install SOA11g on my Windows laptop. I have installed 10g XE (10.2.0.1) database. But when I tried to create the Dehyderation store using RCU tool, the error I got is like, the datasbase version will not support for this installation, however its asking to upgrade it to 10.2.0.4 version. But I didn't find any patch for XE database on windows to upgrade to the required version.
I also tried to install the 11g enterprise database, but I am not able to succede. There I have faced one issue, that using RCU tool I am not able to connect the database as a SYSDBA. So I have dropped this DB and shifted to XE. Now I have stuck with XE version problem.
Is there anybody who installed the SOA11g on the windows platform per personal usage? If so please guide me.

After this I got some more errors , I have ignored them aswell. (One I remembered is open_cursors limit was 300 suppose to be 500).
