Oracle 8i EE Install problems on Windows 2000

Problem 1 - LENGTH OF INSTALL FILES PATH.
The Oracle Universal Installer was coming up fine, but the "Next" button wouldn't do anything. After much trial and error, I discovered this to be related to the path of the install files. Rather than burning to CD, I had copied the install files into a directory C:\ORA816 - when I renamed this directory to just C:\O, the "Next" magically began working. This problem only occurs on Windows 2000, not NT4.
Problem 2 - CREDENTIAL RETRIEVAL FAILED.
I got this error (ORA-12638) from the Database Configuration Assistant. This just happened, so I haven't had a chance to figure it out. Has anyone encountered/fixed this problem in Windows 2000? I am running the install as Administrator.

Re: Problem 2. Just found out that this problem is resolved by removing the line SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES from
%ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\sqlnet.ora

Install Problems under Windows 2000

I have recently upgraded my machine from WinNT4 SP6 to Windows 2000 Professional, and now I cannot install JDeveloper. I have tried 3.1, 3.2 and 3.2.2 and all of them hang at different stages during the installation. There is no error message, the install application just stops responding.

I haven't had problems with any other products installing. I have tried installing JDeveloper 3.2.2 with the bare minimum of components as well as trying the typical installation and nothing seems to work, Im not running anything in the background. The system is a HP Kayak XM600 with an intel PIII 800Mhz 256Mb RAM and an ELSA Synergy graphics card. Someone else I know tried to install it on a Dell machine with a different setup, but under Win2000 Professional, and the install failed on them as well.

Shaun,
We only support Windows 2000 for release 3.2, so I wouldn't bother with anything earlier. We are not aware of any issues with Windows 2000 Professional.
Have you had any problems installing other applications since your upgrade?<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Oracle 11g R2 install problem on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

Hi all,
Trying to install the Oracle 11g R2 database onto Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
I get as far as running the setup and a black window flashes up on the screen and disappears.
The log files only show the following:
Using paramFile: C:\Temp\database\install\oraparam.ini
Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. Actual 65536 Passed
The number of files bootstrapped for the jre is 0.
The number of files bootstrapped for the oui is 0.
I've tried running setup -debug from the command line but no further information is logged.
Any help in troubleshooting further is appreciated.

That is the complete log file. No error messages or further information is given.
I'm not sure how to check:
Statement of Direction: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 – Microsoft Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 [ID 867040.1]
I have checked on:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24283/toc.htm
The server meets all the hardware requirements. The default file share is accessible and it is running a supported browser. The installer is being run with Admin rights. I'm not sure what else I need to check.

8.1.7 install problems on Windows 2000

I've found the renaming of symcjit.dll fix and did that.
Now I get the Universal Installer to come up but it gets the following error on each product:
Certain files which need to be reinstalled by Oracle Universal Installer are being used by one or more applications.
Please close any running applications before continuing.
Any ideas? I uninstalled 8.1.5 before the install.

Please Unzip it on to a directory. U will Win32 Directory under install dir. Under Win32 u will have the setup.exe. The dir structure should be something like Disk1\Install\Win32\Setup.exe

Installing Oracle8i on WIndows 2000

I am currently trying to install Oracle8i (8.1.7) on windows 2000 professional. Everytime I run setup the egg timer comes on and nothing happens. Anyone have any ideas?

Success at last! I'm installing Oracle 8.1.7 on a p4 running win 2k as I type this. I downloaded the java sdk 1.3.0 from java.sun.com/j2se/1.3/install-windows.html and installed it. Then I located the symcjit.dll in my Oralce installation folders (on my hard drive) and renamed it. Then ran the installer and voila! it worked.
<BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Subramaniam Perivemba ([email protected]):
I'm having the same problem on windows 2000 running on a pentium 4. Apparently the file symcjit.dll is used to identify the processor does not do so on a P4. The version of thes file should be 3.10.107 or higher. Dell suggested I install the java runtime environment v 1.3.0 and this may correct thr problem. I did so but no luck. I did a search for this file and the only one I found was in the Oracle installation folder.

Is Oracle 10g Express Edition compatible with Windows 2000 advanced Server

I have installed Oracel 10g Express Edition on windows 2000 advanced Server, but it is not working properly, but when i installed it on Windows 2000 Professional, then it is working properly, Does anybody know why this is happening. If anybody know why this is happening, please tell me and also tell me how can i install Oracle10g xe in Windows 2000 advanced server.

There should be no issues. A few possible reasons you are running into problems:
- installation using a domain administrator (it works best using a local admin);
- firewalls or anti-virus software or other port blocking mechanisms;
- DHCP resets;
However, unless you tell us exactly the symptoms we are only guessing.
My car didn't start this morning, but my wife's car did. Can you call me why based on this information?

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.

Intel says there is a bug in oracle's OUI as well other swing based programs. The solution is to copy the CD to local drive and add -nojit as first parameter to JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS e.g. JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS="-nojit -mx32m"
This will enable OUI to run. Even after installing oracle Net80 conf. asst won't start due to same reason.
Go to HOME\admin\tools\ and edit netca.cl and netasst.cl to add same -nojit before -classpath.
Do this for every tool that gives this prob such DBA studio...

Oracle 8i Installation problem on Windows 2000

I had purchased a Oracle8i (MS/Windows NT CD (E-Commerce), part Number A94674-01 in the month of Jun 2000.
When I tried to install Oracle 8i personal edition of Windows 2000 ver.
The installation got completed smoothly. But after that I was not able to start my database and even Windows 2000 crashed after that. After every crash I reinstalled windows 2000 and oracle 8i but the result was same. My whole purpose of purchasing Oracle 8i on windows 2000 is getting defeated.
I would request you send me solution what to do ? Or replace my Oracle S/W. Its useless for me right now.
My M/C configuration is
Dell P-III (256 MB, 300 Mhz) with sound card.
20 GB Hard Disk of 7200 rpm.
The primary O/S is Windows 98.
The Hard disk is partitioned into no. Of logical drives.
They are like 2GB of each (C, D, E, F) and G 10 GB
C part ion has got Windows. And G has got windows 2000. There is enough space in all part ions.
I would appreciate if you can solve my problem as soon as possible.
Sincerely,
Shekhar

Problem Installing 817 on Windows 2000 with RAID Array

I am having a problem installing Oracle under windows 2000 which has 2 x 60 GB discs configured in RAID array. When I run the setup program the cursor goes busy for about 10 seconds and returns back to normal and nothing happens !. No errors nothing.
However when I run the Object Manager in the ods_preinstall directory it starts but in the log file I get the following error message:-
02/14/02 09:46:18 : (892) : Error in IO Control call for disk PhysicalDrive0 (Error 21)
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : The count = 28
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : The signature is 0x443aa035
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : Error: First Partition of the disk must be an extended disk
02/14/02 09:46:19 : (892) : Found the partition: 7
Any idea whats happening....? Has anyone seen this before. Do I need to do something special in teh RAID..?
TIA
Martin

Here are some possible solutions:
1. The installation notes state that you must be logged on as Administrator to be able to install 9i. Are you logged on as the Administrator? Being logged on as user01 with Administrator priviledges isn't the same as Administrator.
2. Is the disk full? If I remember my installation correctly, I needed 3 times the size of the files. The documentation will tell you how much space you need.
Hope these two questions help

Michael

URGENT!Stuck while installing the Oracle apps 11.5.8 on Windows 2000 Server

Hi All,
I am installing the Oracle applications 11.5.8 on windows server 2000 using the rapid install 11.5.8.11(which was part of the cd pack).
I am using the Windows CD Pack(which consists of 19 cds)
To start with, it has passed all the pre install checks(including the utlity check, system check etc), every thing was succesful and then I started the installation.
And then I started installing, I inserted 1 cd at a time. Every thing went smoothly until the 5 cd. While processing the 5th CD, it started spawning the dos session and was trying to connect to the created database. And it was not able to do so.
I could see from the status bar that it was trying to run the scripts like adlicnse.sql, adclobtmp.sql ,adclobconv.sql
and throwing the following message
ora-01089: immediate shutdown in progress
and was asking me to enter the user name . When I entered the username and password, it throws the message saying that
"ora-01089: immediate shutdown in progress".
After such unsuccesful attempts for each of the above mentioned file, I finally go the "Oracle Applications Rapid Install Wizard Alert"
displaying the below message.
Error code received when running external process.
Check log file for details.
Running Database Install Driver for PROD instance.
and then with the "Retry" and "Abort" buttons. When I pressed the retry button,still get the same message. (And I did not find any log file to look for).
Please let us know what are we supposed to do now and what is the exact reason why it is not able to connect to the database.
I have not tampered with any of the files. This is a urgent requirement for us to install the oracle apps, please help us immediately and any help is widely appreciated.
Thanks.

your problem is not very unusual... I also faced the similar situation cpl of times when Oracle was not able to continue the installation coz the Immediate Shutdown was failed. Actually During the installation, Oracle mounts/opens the database and shuts it down many times and few times, Oracle is unable to shutdown cleanly as some process is hanging or not responding.
Piece of advise is that always use staging area to install Apps as it takes long time on Win2K (anything between 4-12 hrs) to install it and CDROM Access is lot slower than HDD. Also, it will prompt u every time to insert tbe CD. All this hassle can be bypassed by using the staging area. Read the Installation help document on how to create it.
For failure reasons, look in ur installation log file which is created in the default Temp folder usually C:\documents and settings\USERNAME\local settings\temp for WinXP or C:\winnt\documents and settings\USERNAME\local settings\temp for Win2K.
post or email me at [email protected] or [email protected] for further help/details.

Installation problem on windows 2000

I've tried many versions of oracle database, 8.1.7 all editions, 8.1.6ee, 9iAS. the only message error I got when 9iAS failed to install (iSetup.exe). the problem seems to be with the java runtime environment. the jre 1.1.7 came with 9iAS would not run properly. I've tried to install java2 and jdk1.1.8 from javasoft, still no luck.
Any idea?
Thanks,

Hi,
The problem of installing Oracle Product on P4 computers comes from the symcjit.dll (Java Jusit in time compiler) which doesn't recognize the P4.
I installed Oracle products on my P4 just by copying the CD's on a harddisk and manually replacing the dll (which is Version 3...) by a one I found to be Version 4.0.0.7.
It is maybe not the best solution as it can result some instability (I don't know yet) but at least I didn't bought a brand new computer for nothing.
The question is to know when Oracle will deliver some patches to allow a normal installation on P4s.
Let me know if you want me to send you the dll.
Regards,
Jacques.
