Oracle 8i Client Setup - Windows 2000

We have just installed Oracle 8i on a Windows NT server, and are using the standard LISTENER configuration.
On the client side, we are trying to use Windows 2000. When the install process goes through the setup routine, it keeps wanting to use NAMES SERVER as the way to connect to the server.
There does not appear to be anything that we are doing that would change this set up, ad yet, we can not seem to generate a TNSNAMES.ORA files on the client.
ARe there any known problems with using a Windows2000 client to a WindowsNt server, and if not, what advice might anyone have?

Hi Douglas:
Can you email me copies of the following:
tnsnames.ora
listener.ora
sqlnet.ora
If any of the files contains a link to the pfile send me that as well.
Thanks
Jay

  • Moving oracle 9i database from windows 2000 to windows 2003 server

    hi everybody,
    plz provide me a solution how to move oracle 9i database from windows 2000 server to windows 2003 server with step by step and also with commands plz as i am very new to oracle
    thanks in advance
    suresh

    Install 9i on windows 2003 server and patch to the same level as the Oracle on Windows 2k
    Shutdown and make a cold backup of your old database. That includes datafiles, controlfiles, redo files, init file (spfile)
    Copy and put these files to the exact same directory structure/location, for example if old file is under D:\oradata\mysid\ then the file on new file should be under same directory. (If you are using Network Storage that make things easier, just mapping to the same drive letter.)
    Also make sure archive log dest and all dump dest directories are created. You don't have to copy all old logs and dump files over.
    Use oradim to create a new service for the database instance
    http://www.psoug.org/reference/oradim.html
    Set proper ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID envionment varibles
    Run netca to configure listener, actually copy listener.ora and tnsnames.ora to $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin will do
    Try to start the database

    As Windows 7 uses NTLM2 by default, please try to set it to “Send LM & NTLM – Use NTLMv2 session security if negotiated”

  • Sendmail on linux and oracle colloboration suite on windows 2000

    Hello
    I am new to Oracle collaboration suite .We just want to know ,how we can implement sendmail on linux server on a seperate machine and Oracle collaboration suite on windows 2000 on a different machine.Whether it is possible or not if yes then what are the steps to be taken for this,I mean how we can go for it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Maddie,
    => Phsyical DataGuard supports different platforms, but not different versions. So no option.
    => Logical Standby => while supporting different versions of database, it hat platform restrictions. So especially with 10g is not an option as well
    => GoldenGate is probably the way to go, but unfortunately not a cost free option. But would ideally support what you expect.
    => Streams might be possible as well...

    This resolved my problem as well. I am on Windows 2000 server, SP2. The problem installing Oracle 8.1.7.0.0 standard edition exhibited itself by briefly changing the cursor to an hourglass and then returning to ready. The executable JREW.EXE would briefly execute in processes and then stop.
    I copied the installation media to a server drive and renamed symcjit.dll and the installer worked correctly.
    Thank you to Yugandhar for this solution.
    We too faced some of those problems ie setup.exe wont even run in Windows XP pro, p4 system..the culprit is symcjit.dll. Its the problem in p4 to run this dll. After lot of research, just rename it and all is set to go.

  • Problem with oracle 8i installation on windows 2000 pro

    Hi all
    i'm installing oracle 8i enterprize edition on windows 2000 professional.
    At the end of the installation,in the configuration tools step when it says that
    the following tools will be automatically started for you etc...
    the oracle database configuration assistant keep failing and i get the following message in the text file dbSilentCreate
    < 8I\starterdb is an invalid command line argument. >
    what should i do? anyone familiar with this problem ?
    Constancio

    This should be a workaround for your problem. Let me know if it works or not.
    1. Create a temporary directory on your server.
    2. Copy the contents of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 1.
    3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for the existence of the filename symcjit.dll.
    4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.
    5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x.

    Can you describe the problem in a bit more detail? What error do you get when you try to connect to the database? Can you test the DSN successfully? Can you tnsping the database?
    Are you installing the Oracle client or the Oracle database on Windows 2000? Which version of Oracle (8.1.5, 8.1.6, 8.1.7, etc)?

  • Oracle 8 Driver for Windows 2000

    I recently upgraded my Web servers to Windows 2000 Advanced Server. Previously I was running the site in Windows NT and used the setup program that came with the application to install the ODBC driver. I ran the same program in Windows 2000 but at the end of installation, it displays an error. Where do I download Driver and setup program to install correct version for windows 2000 Advanced Server?

    Which version of Oracle do you have and what is the error? Older versions of Oracle, i.e. 8.0.5 & 8.1.5, probably pre-date Windows2000 and thus aren't likely to be certified there.

    I am not sure but I think the problem is with the allocated shared memory size, which right now is:
    <b>init.ora</b>
    [code]shared_pool_size = 67108864[/code]
    <b>init<SID>.ora</b>
    [code]shared_pool_size = 90112000
    shared_pool_reserved_size = 9011200
    [/code]
    If this is the cause of the problem then how much should i increase it to? and do i need to modify the size in both files or only init<SID>.ora? Is there any SAP Note related to this problem? Thanks.
    Regards,

    Hi Vasu,
    ORA-4031... for 99%  of cases this means one thing:
    the database instance is not configured correctly.
    To proceed, do the following:
    1. get rid of init.ora (it's not used at all)
    2. make sure that the init<sid>.ora file is really used.
       If there is a spfile in the %ORACLE_HOME&/database folder
       then this will be used.
    3. With your  configured shared pool of 85MB your memory should really not be filled up - anyhow it's really too small for a SAP system!
    Thus I'd check how much memory the other sga-area members (buffer cache, large pool, streams pool, java pool...) take up.
        Remember on Windows 32 Bit, everything runs in one single process that can only allocate 2GB (or 3GB if you've set this option).
    See note:

    for more on this.
    And when you're setting up parameters anyway, check note

  • Oracle 8 installation in Windows 2000 Server

    I can't install oracle Enterprise Manager (Oracle 8 product) in a Windows 2000 Server system. The installation program show me this error message:
    "Unable to delete the NT Service for the
    SQL * NT V2 listener"
    Can any body have the solution?

    Supposedly you need to find these 3 files.
    SQLNET,TNSNAMES, LISTENER using your windows find from start. change the names of the dev ones to .bak or something else.
    copy the files from your 8i/network/admin into those 2 other places (forget the/samples directories). restart the database and it should connect (Developer stuff to database) A friend of mine did this on W2K and it wokred fine. I have tried it on win98 with 8i personal edition for win 98 and DEV 6 and it failed. So if anyone knows anything I am missing let me know. SQL+ works fine so I knw the DB is fine.
    Thanks,

  • Oracle 9i and upgrade Windows 2000 to Windows 2003

    Hi,
    We have a Oracle 9i (9.2.0.6.0 Enterprise Edition) running under Windows 2000 and the OS group is going to upgrade to Windows 2003.
    My question is: will Oracle keep working?
    I hope so because we are not allowed to upgrade to 10g or 11g and I think Oracle 9i for Windows 2003 can't be downloaded anymore.
