Oracle 9I and windows xp

I'm trying to install the Oracle 9i Client on my PC. I just got Windows XP. When I execute the setup.exe., get the hour glass and then the hour glass goes away and nothing happens.
Another person in our office has Windows XP and he had no problems. I'm I missing something.
I'm new to this enviroment.
Thanks.

I installed oracle 10g on my XP Home and it works great. I can even config the net manager connect from my another XP Pro to this XP Home oracle 10g.

  • External table in Oracle 10g and Windows server 2003 problem

    I'm having a problem accessing an external table in an Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 server environment. The disk is remote (mapped) to the server. It's the usual access errors, kup-04001 or kup-04063.
    I have the [seemingly] exact same setup in an Oracle 9i and Windows 2000 server environment which works perfectly. Services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    In the Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 environment, services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the mapped disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    This obviously effects mappings, deployments, etc.
    Does anyone know if something changed in either the db or the os?
    Thank you,
    Michael

    Thank you for your reply.
    Your proposal is the standard solution. As a matter of fact, that's how it is on my "old" system. Server "A" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM. Server "B" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM and is where the flat files reside. SYSTEM has full permissions on a disk local to Server "B". Database directoriies defined on Server "A" point to Server "B" remote disk. External Tables on Server "A" are defined with directories that point to Server "B" remote (mapped) disk. I have no problems with this configuration.
    I'm having a problem acheiving the same configuration with Oracle 10g and Windows 2003. I guess I'm baffled over the fact it isn't working the same way as my "old" environment. Why shouldn't it? Oracle (and you) want me to start services as a specific user. It shouldn't have to be that way unless something changed in the way the database makes calls to the os or if Microsoft slipped something in with one of it's numerous security patches.

  • Oracle 9i and Windows XP home version

    Is it possible to install Oracle 9i on Windows XP home version? I have heard that the O/S has to be Windows XP PROFESSIONAL version. Is this true?

  • Oracle 9i and windows 2003 R2 installation issues

    Hi All,
    I have a windows 2003 R2 server with oracle 9.2.0.8 installed both OS and DB are 32bit. The server has 12gb ram and I therefore use AWE and /PAE, however when ever the number of connections exceeds >60 memory errors start to appear and sessions crash. Has anyone out there carried out a successful install of 9i and windows 2003 R2. Can anyone help with the resolution of these issues.
    regards
    Alan

    some more information
    I’ve just restarted the server with its full quota of 16GB of RAM and selected both boot.ini switches (/PAE and /3GB) at server startup. I then amended the dbblock_lru_latches parameter from 128 to 64. Before I even started the database I tried running ‘ipconfig /all’ at the command prompt with the following result:
    D:\Oracle>ipconfig /all
    Windows IP Configuration
    An internal error occurred: Insufficient system resources exist to complete the requested service.
    Please contact Microsoft Product Support Services for further help.
    is it windows causing these issues?

  • Oracle 11gR2 and Windows 8

    Yes I know it's not officially supported...
    ...but having acknowledged that, has anyone tried? I was able to install it and create a DB but I can't get the listener to start (it won't create the service either), just get a TNS-12560 on LSNRCTL START. I am logged into Windows as an admin level user.

    Oracle Database for 32-bit Windows is supported on the following operating systems:
    Windows Server 2008 - Standard, Enterprise, Datacenter, Web, and Foundation editions. The Server Core option is not supported.
    Ref : http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24281/toc.htm#BGBEEBAD
    regarding error : make sure you have set oracle sid and oracle home correctly, and services are started on services.msc
    ORACLE_SID has no bearing on the listener. ORACLE_HOME does.

  • Oracle Developer and Windows XP

    I am a student at the University of Phoenix, currently enrolled
    in an Oracle class. My book came with Personal Oracle 8i and
    Developer 6 for Windows 98. Unfortunatelly, my a new system runs
    WinXP Home and not Windows 98.
    I first installed the provided Developer and used the default
    home (ORANT), then I downloaded Personal Oracle 8i 1.7 for
    Win2000, but the install told me I could not use ORANT as the
    home. I installed to a new directory called ORAXP.
    My problem is that although Personal Oracle works great (I can
    connect to my database through SQLPlus), my Developer products
    won't (i.e. Procedure Builder) connect to my database. I get the
    following error while attempting to connect:
    PDE-POC011 ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
    (Additional error: depoc 4)
    What is my problem? Do I need to modify the TNSNAMES.ora on
    ORANT so that it knows about the database created on ORAXP? Will
    I have more issues because I have two Oracle homes?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi,
    - 1 In the first try yo modify your sqlnet.ora and your
    TNSNAMESOR, (save all modifications)
    - 2 Second: Start the Oracle services: ...TNSLISTNER and
    OracleserviceSID. Whre SID is the name of your Oracle database.
    - 3 Try to connect with SQL*PLUS.
    Exemple: SQLNET.ORA
    TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = OFF
    #sqlnet.authentication_services = (NONE)
    names.directory_path = (TNSNAMES, HOSTNAME)
    names.default_domain = world
    name.default_zone = world
    automatic_ipc = off
    Exemple: TNSNAMES.ORA
    # TNSNAMES.ORA Network Configuration File: D:\Oracle\Ora81
    \network\admin\tnsnames.ora
    # Generated by Oracle configuration tools.

  • Oracle 8i3 and Windows 2000 Service Pack 2

    If this is not the right forum, please direct me to another one.
    Seems that 8.1.7 is not compatible with Windows 2000 Server Service Pack 2. The database worked just fine until I installed the SP2. After that I cannot connect to it. When I run sqlplus to connect I get this error:
    ORA-01034: ORACLE not available
    ORA-27101: shared memory realm does not exist
    I don't know what to do, and I cannot find any more informaiton about SP2 and Oracle. Please share if you have any.

    Sorry, but my english is terrible.
    Well, I has this problem. I installed Windows Service Pack 2 and
    received this message when I tryed to connect Oracle by SQL
    Plus: shared memory realm does not exist. Ok, do you found any

    Please, help me. I don't know how to deinstall service pack.

    Then how can I install .... Oracle 10g in Vista.. Is there any wayYou can't. Well, you can try but be prepared for a lot of frustration.
    Some users got it to install, others have had all kinds of problems.
    Either way, it's not supported by Oracle.

  • Oracle database and Windows Active directory authentication

    Hello,
    Our developers have created a couple of web apps which look at our oracle database. Presently they use the APPS user and the user/password is hard coded into the config files.
    Is it possible to authenticate these using Windows Active Directory instead? Is it possible to use AD authentication for all developer access to the database?
    I'm trying to research this on the web but getting very confused. Would a lot of work be involved to get this up and running?
    Is anyone able to offer and advise?
    Thank you very much
    Sarah

    I don't have experience in joining a Linux system with Windows AD, and it generally does not sound like the best idea to me, but since Oracle Enterprise Linux is a clone of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, the solution you are looking for could be called Winbind.
    Perhaps the following links are useful:

  • Oracle,SSH and Windows

    Hello,
    I'm trying to make a ssh connection to a remote Oracle database (on a Windows machine running OpenSSH) from a local machine using ssh. I open the connection fine, create the tunnel and I can even tnsping the remote database, but when I try to conenct with sqlplus, I get a connect timeout.
    Local machine is 192.168.0.250
    remote machine(windows w/ database) is 192.168.0.60. It is behind a firewall so for conversation lets say that it's public IP is 2.2.2.2. The firewall is setup to forward ports to the machine
    Using putty on the local machine I setup a tunnel forwarding 1521 to the remote machine
