Oracle 8i & 9i Vs Pentium 4

Recently My friend bought a Pentium 4 Machine pre-installed with Windows 2000 Professional. He downloaded Oracle 8i Enterprise and when we tried to Install it there was no response. But when we tried the Same Oracle in Pentium III its working fine. Where will be the Problem...? I heard the same complaint in Pentium 4 machines with windows 2000. But Oracle 8 is installing in Windows 98 in the same pentium 4 machine. Please help me by giving a good solution....

Hi -
The bug is with the Symantic ( spelled correctly ? ) Just in time Compiler used with the installer.
A quick workaround is to dump the complete install CD ( in your case the downloaded s/w stage ) to disk and rename the symjit????.dll ( Search the stage area for symjit???.dll ) to symjit???.old. Then start the installer from the staging area. I think the installer tries to use the jit dll if its there and since the one that is shipped is buggy on PIV you just need to rename it so that it won't be used. The installer work's fine without this dll.
HTH,
V

Installing 8.1.6

I am trying to install Oracle 8i (8.1.6) on a Windows 2000 Professional environment. I insert the CD and am able to get the autorun screen. Once I press the install button it does not go any further. No error is displayed and nothing happens. Has anyone faced a similar problem.
My hardware configuration is Dell 8100 with 1.3GHz and 256MB RAM. I did change the Windows Me OS that I originally got with the machine to Windows 2000 Professional. It was a clean install after reformatting the drive.

Are they Pentium 4 PC's? There's a known installation bug with the Oracle Universal Installer and Pentium 4's. If that's
the case one of the workarounds is to copy the entire CD to a temp directory on the PC, rename the file symcjit.dll to
symcjit.old and then run the setup.exe file from the temp\install\win32 directory on the PC.

Installing 8.1.6 Client on win 2000 - Compaq Evo

We have just had delivered a number of new Compaq Evo PCs with Windows 2000 and Compaq software pre-installed. On trying to install 8.1.6 Client nothing happens - the setup.exe does not run. We have tried closing the Compaq software that initiates at start up but that seems to make no difference. Has anyone else had similiar problems with Compaqs or knows how to get thiese install working?
Many thanks.

Java Errors when starting HTTP server

OS - W2K
Oracle 8.1.7
Pentium 4
I can install and run the HTTP server on a Pentium 3 and everything works fine. I move to a Pentium 4 and things are not working. I am aware of the bug in the just in time compiler (simcjit.dll) and have removed them. All other Oracle java applications seem to be working fine. When I attempt to start the Apache http server I get 7 pop up windows with the following message:
java.exe has generated errors and will be closed by Windows.
You will need to restart the program.
An error log is being created.
It would be nice if it gave the location of the error log. It is not in the Windows Application log as I would expect. The Apache server does start but does not work. I guess Oracle does not support 8.1.7 on Pentium 4's. Has anyone out there run into this problem and come up with a work around?
Thanks,
John

We are having the same problem and as yet haven't found a work around. Any assistance would be very useful as we are tied to using 8.1.7 and a Pentium 4.

I can not install Oracle 8i 1.6 Client for NT on an Intel pentium 4 Machine

Hi all,
I've heard the java virtual m installed during the installation of oracle client manager 8i 1.6 on a Intel Pentium IV is bugy till now we could n't bring it to runn. Is there anyone who has the uptodate Patch or work around for that problem?
I will be pleased to read any of the suggestions
Thanks and regards.
Gallican

I think you would need to contact Oracle support to get the CD's if they're still available. 8.1.6 is desupported.
What kind of errors do you get whne trying to use Crystal with Oracle 8.1.7.4? Perhaps this is an ODBC issue?

Oracle 8i installation problem on Win XP pro, Pentium 4

I am trying to install oracle 8i on Pentium 4 PC, Win XP professional Operating system, 512MB RAM.
When I run setup.exe then it is silent, no response.
I installed java J2SDk1.4.0 standard edition, and Java runtime environment. It is still the same problem.
Would you please let me know what should I do ??
Thanks.
Mohammad

Well
1. Copy the entire contents of your Oracle8i cd into hard disk. The folder can be any name but not "oracle"
2. Do a find files in the local hard disk where oracle files is copied in Step 1. Look for --> jit
3. Rename the file to something like jit_old
4. Run the installer. It should work now.
But better check on web there might be some issues related to java later when u need to install java software into the PC.
Happy install

Can't install Oracle 8i EE 8.1.7 release3 on Pentium 4 machine

Hi folks,
We are upgrading our PCs from Pentium 3 to Pentium 4, but we are having problems with Pentium 4 PCs: we are unable to install Oracle 8i Enterprise edition (8.1.7, release 3) on all our P4 machines (OS Win2000 professional; Gateway Pentium 4; 1.5 GHz speed; 256 MB RAM). Whenever we tried to install Oracle 8i (8.1.7, EE, release 3), its dead after running 3-4 seconds.
We had no problem with Pentium 3 PCs when we installed Oracle.
Have you successfully installed Oracle 8i (8.1.7 E.E r3 ) on you P4 machines? Since our PCs are all Gateway machines, I dont know if its a Gateway issue or an Oracle issue, please help me, thank you very much.

Hi!
The solution for Intel Pentium 4 and Oracle problems is the following...
1.)
Download JRE v1.1.8_008. Link for it: http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html
2.)
Install JRE (onto any machine - we only need one file from it), search for the filename "symcjit.dll", and make a copy of it somewhere.
3.)
Now copy the contents of your Oracle CD(s) to a temporary directory on your harddisk. Eg. D:\oracle_install
4.)
Search for the filename "symcjit.dll" in your temporary directory (D:\oracle_install), and replace all instances with the one that you saved in Step No. 2.
5.)
Start the setup from your temporary directory, and all will be fine...
Zsolt M.
PS: This works for all Oracle products that are using Oracle Universal Installer (that means really all Oracle products... :) )
PS2: Some people think that the Intel P4 problem only concerns Windows 2000 and XP. They are wrong. The older (pre JRE v1.1.8_006) symcjit.dll libraries contain some functions that do not properly identify the Intel P4 processor, and therefor fail... This is a common problem with the old Symantec Java JustInTime Compiler and Intel Pentium 4 CPUs that affects all Oracle products (which use the old libraries) under all Windows operating systems.

Oracle forms 6i (Pentium 4, Win98) "Can not install"

I have a "customized" Oracle interface that was created in Oracle forms 6. I have successfully used this form on Windows 95 Clients but now I must switch to a Windows 98 O/S on a Pentium 4 machine. I actually had to download a special Oracle Installer to install the 8i Client, but I now need to load a newer version of the Forms "run-time" and can not install it from the 6i forms download. Any suggestions would be more than appreciated.

Forms 6i installation in Windows98 should not give any trouble. Hope you
have checked the memory. You should have 128MB memory to install
Forms6i. In Runtime you may not actually require that much of memory but
to install you reuire that (Please see Hardware requirement for Form6i).
