Oracle 8.1.6 install on XP Pro.

Hi, i want to Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows Xp Pro. OS, using Oracle8i Personal Edition (8.1.6) CD when i try to install, the autorun screen appeared and when I press install/Deinstall Products button, nothing happened but the autorun screen disappeared. if it's possible,how can i install 8.1.6 on Xp. ( i have xp licence and i did registered.)
thanks..

Oracle 9.2 was the first version of the database certified on Windows XP Professional. It may not be possible to install 8.1.6 on XP Pro-- if it is possible to install the database, random things may not work correctly. My suggestion would be to either upgrade your database to Oracle 9.2 or downgrade your operating system to Windows 2000 Professional.

  • How do I install windows 8 pro with osx 10.9 Mavericks?, How do I install windows 8 pro with osx 10.9 Mavericks?

    Hello everyone I just purchased a brand new mac and I am trying to install windows 8 pro using bootcamp assistant. I get through almost the entire install when i get an error message that says "installation cannot proceed files missing" something like that...
    my windows 8 pro is brand new and I downloaded osx mavericks from the app store has anyone else had this problem can anyone help me????!?!?

    Hi. Because both Mavericks and Windows 8 are still new, they may not be free of error. Apple needs more time to perform more tests to ensure that these two different OS's will work properly without getting in conflicts. If it's posdible, I highly recommand you to downgrade back to Lion or Mountain Lion and install Windows 7 (if you have a copy of it). In my experience, all advises from Genius Bar members and computer articles confirm that  Windows 7 will work on Macs with Lion OS. It should also work on Mountain Lion. Besides Boot Camp, you could try to virtualize Windows OS and its applications by using VirtualBox, CrossOver and other VMs. I already have an Oracle VirtualBox but I would like to try Boot Camp since it allows me to enjoy almost all Windows features that may be limited in VMs.

  • Cannot start Oracle 8.1.5 on Windows XP Pro

    Hi all,
    I am facing a hell lot of problem in starting an Oracle 815 ( Enterprise edition ) database installed on WindowsXP Pro.
    First problem is that , I am a Unix person and very less familier with Windows servers .
    I have successfully ( appearently ) installed Oracle 8.1.5 Enterprise edition on my Laptop with Windows XP Pro.
    In the service manager I can see the created services , like for the database , listener etc.
    I have set all of them to be started manually .
    When I try to start the database service ( instance ) , a progress bar appears as the service is being started .
    As the progress bar progresses , its progress becomes slower and slower , at the end it stops saying ,
    Could not start the OracleService<sid of db> service on Local Computer
    Error 1053: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion.
    In the service manager the status of the service becomes 'starting' and thats it . It do not allow to start or stop that service after that .
    Is there any log or trace I can see for this ?
    If I start the listener service , it starts immediatly .
    Please advice .

    Hi ,
    I have just installed the latest OLEDB (OraWin9204) And ODBC (ora9205) Providers on my laptop using Oracle9i Personal Edition on Windows XP Prof. Now im getting this same error message. (service did not start in a timely fasion)
    If i try and run the oracle service from the command line i get more of a clue.
    \oraHome\bin\oracle.exe <service name>
    the following error message appears :
    The procedure entry point qmxdCvtXtobToSax could not be located in the dynamic link library orageneric9.dll
    this is located in the \oraHome\bin directory
    i have unpacked all of the jar files and had a look through them and i definatley have the latest orageneric9.dll that i can find which is :

  • Oracle 8.1.5 on Windows XP Pro

    Hi,
    I am trying to install Oracle 8.1.5 on windows XP pro, when installing i get the message saying "Invalid staging area". It will get a bit further if i run setup.exe in compatibility mode for Windows98, but seems to halt installation when trying to install a file called comUS.msd (- not sure if i have extension correct) it as at 76% of installation.
    Does anyone know how to get around this problem?
    Thanks
    Nick.
    PS the machine runs an AMD Athlon 1.7GHz processor too

    You may want to search the database forums or All forums categories first to see if this question is already answered. I see at least 6 threads in the database category level and 21 threads when I searched all categories for "invalid staging area." If you still do not the find the answer, please repost your question in the database forum.

  • Any Guide to install Windows 8 Pro 64-bit on Retina 13??

    Any Guide to install Windows 8 Pro 64-bit on Retina 13?? Is it possible??? I was able to install Win7, but stuck on a blue black screen on self-restart after Installing Win8.. The same iso works fine with Oracle VM... Any help? Many Thanks....

    Try parallels.com. It is a virtual machine which you can have Mac and Windows both running at the same time. I currently have it installed on my Macbook Pro 13" Non Retina and it works great!
    I know for a fact Windows 8 is compatible and it is also Mountain Lion compatible as well.

  • Unable to install Win 8 Pro on GPT 3TB disk

     
    I am unable, with all the willpower in the world, to install Windows 8 Pro on a 3TB harddisk.
    I have tried about everything, I'm an IT professional and I just can't get it to work. The pinned topic from xmad does not work for me at all.
    I'm using a Z77A-G45 motherboard with the latest official UEFI BIOS (2.9). I boot from the UEFI DVD Drive with an official Windows 8 DVD, check my disk is in GPT mode (it is) and continue the installer.
    When I arrive at the disk partitioning screen, I select create new partition and Windows creates a 100 mbyte partition, a 2 TB partition and leaves about 750GB as unusable.
    I check the disk and windows has moved it back to a normal non GPT disk.
    I tried manually creating the partition with diskpart: an EFI partition with 30 megabyte for the bootloader, and MSR partition of 300 megabyte and a primary partition of 2.7 TB. After refreshing the partitioning screen I see the correct partitions and Windows simply says "can not install on a disk that is in EFI mode".
    I've searched and read and tried every thing but I just can not get this to work. I'm getting pretty desperate here and would like any and all input you can give me.

    Enable win 8 mode in Bios, but disable msi fast boot and fast boot for now.
    It is easier if you install from a usb, re-format and clean the drive using diskpart and follow the guide then.
    If any trouble, update to the latest bios here:

  • Can't install Windows 7 Pro x64 - device driver missing - can't eject DVD

    Hello,
    I am trying to install Windows 7 Pro x64 - I create the partition in boot camp and start windows install process. **During the Windows install process**, it says "A required CD/DVD device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now. Note: if the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can safely remove it for this step".
    Apparently the drivers are on the OSX install DVD. But, there is no way to eject the windows DVD! Why on earth is there no manual eject on Macs? Is there another way to eject? I tried to put a paperclick in the slot next to where a CD is inserted but it didn't do anything. Is there another way to get Windows to see the correct device drivers?
    I am all for clean slick designs, but when it does not have all required functionality, it is kind of useless.
    I am talking to Mac Support and they can't help.
    Looks like I will have to return this Mac, I also need to boot into full Windows (without Parallels or VMWare) to do my work.

    You don't mention what Mac you have, so I'd have to say there is almost no way to help.
    IF the 7 Pro x64 came download ISO thru EDU, you have to burn it, and if you use Disk Utility, at 2X reduced burn speed... otherwise it won't work.
    A VM isn't fussy and can use ISOs.
    If you want both native and VM, to have Windows installed on its own hard drive and use it under OS X, then you have to install it and use Boot Camp Assistant.
    I'd say it is all about your DVD media.

  • I have installed Adobe Premiere Pro cc on my laptop, but I cant find a way to start the program. No Icon, and it is not showing up in the start meny. It is showing up in add/remove programs, but nt anywhere else.

    If you are using a Mac, simply hit Command-Spacebar to bring up Spotlight Search.  Begin typing the name of the application and when you see what you are looking for, press enter.  You should get a hit by the second or third letter you type.  Great way to launch apps on computers that you are not familiar with.
    Windows 7 and 8 should have something similar.  I think you simply press the Windows key and begin typing.  Press enter when you see a match.
    Both Mac and Windows search tools can be customized to search for applications, files, emails and so forth.  For Windows, look for Taskbar and Start Menu Properties.  For Mac, go to Preferences Spotlight.  Turn off items you know you won't need to speed up searches.

  • Installing Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 on a new laptop, but it doesn't accept my serial number

    Hello,
    On my old laptop I had installed and licensed Adobe Acrobat Pro 9. I retired my old laptop and bought a new one. I want to install Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 now on the new one. But seemingly my serial number is not accepted any more. That's what I did so far
    1. Downloaded Adobe Acrobat Pro 9 from http://helpx.adobe.com/acrobat/kb/acrobat-8-9-product-downloads.html
    2. Retrieved my serial number from Adobe ID (it matched what I have found out locally on my old computer)
    2. Started the installation
    3. Entered my serial number when asked for. Then I get a message "Invalid Serial Number"
    Who can help please?
    Best regards,

  • Install Windows 7 Pro 64bit on MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2014

    Trying to install Window 7 Pro on my new MacBook Pro 15" Mid 2014. I went through the following:
    Attempt 1: Downloading the latest bootcamp support drivers, copied on flash drive and used BCA for partitioning. Booting from Ext. DVD with USB pin drive containing the drivers inserted
    Attempt 2: Using ISO to create a bootable USB pin drive with bootcamp support drivers on the same..
    Both attempts ended being unable to pass Windows 7 language selection screen. Mouse/Trackpad/Keyboard are not working.
    Windows 8.1 pro works fine, but I'm not very happy with it..
    Any advice?

    The primary challenge is due to absence of proper drivers on the W7 installer to support the USB ports. One thing to check is if the USB is a USB2 or USB3. USB3 pen drives will not work.
    You should also try Attempt 2 using all available USB ports available, one at a time. Disconnect any other peripherals other than KM and USB before you start installation. BT devices are not very stable when used.
    If you can see any files in the Bootcamp volume from the OSX side, look for installer logs for details.
    find . -name setupact.log -print
    ./Windows/Logs/DPX/setupact.log
    ./Windows/Panther/setupact.log

  • Is there a way to do an install of Adobe Pro XI without entering key until after the install?

    Is it possible to set up an install of Adobe Pro XI that doesnt require the licence key to be entered at the time of the install, but instead upon the first time the application is run? We have various users with different license keys but want to automate one installation and just have them enter the key after the install has complete, when they go to use the software the first time. We are looking to set this up in SCCM 2012 R2. Thanks in advance for any insight!

  • I want to re-install my Pre-Installed Lion Macbook Pro, but I can't get the Lion OS from App Store with my Apple ID. Please help, thanks!

    Hi, I want to do a clean re-installation of my end 2011 Macbook Pro which comes with pre-installed Lion OS. I go through the installation steps and after App Store verified my Apple ID, it prompted me that I did not purchase the Lion OS. I am very surprise to see this message which my pre-installed Lion Macbook Pro should have it. Please help and advise how can I get the OS? All other bundle softwares were in the purchase record except the Lion OS.

    That was my mistake - sorry - it IS Command-R to boot to the Recovery disk, not Command-D: I either just hit the wrong key or am just now coming awake from my nap.
    Let me see if I can just explain it in a few steps - I don't know of any link (but it would make a good User Tip):
    Create an up-to-the minute back-up of your internal hard drive using an external hard drive and Time Machine.
    Boot to your recovery partion - holding down Command-R on boot.
    Use Disk Utility to erase Macintosh HD - use one GUID partition and format as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". Unless you're selling the machine, there's no need to do a secure erase (which can take hours).
    After you erase the disk, re-install Lion from the same Recovery partition.
    After installation is complete, reboot, again holding down the Command-R keys to boot into the Recovery Partition.
    Restore your Time Machine back-up. This could take several hours.
    Reboot after restore and you're back in business.
    That should take care of everything - all you need is an Internet connection.
    Call back if I didn't explain things too well - at least I got the Command-R right this time!

  • I have a Macbook Model No A1181 2.4 GHz intel core 2 Duo with 4 Gb Ram. Should I be able to instal Final Cut Pro 3.0.2 cos I'm having problems?

    I have a Macbook Model No A1181 2.4 GHz intel core 2 Duo with 4 Gb Ram. Should I be able to instal Final Cut Pro 3.0.2 cos I'm having problems? As I read it My machine should be able to run the software.
    Thanks in advance

    You are trying to use software that is over 10 years old. As I read it, FCP 3.0.2 required 10.1 or higher at the time, but as FCP is reliant on quicktime, which has been updated many, many times, I doubt that you will ever get it to work properly.
