Oracle 9i on Windows 2003 server - DBCA error

1. This is the error message that I get when I am trying to install the 9.2.0.3 software in a new oracle home. There is a 10g database which sits in a different Oracle home. The OUI runs smoothly until it comes to the point where the Database Config Assistant tool starts running and then I get this error and the installer hangs. Could anyone let me know why I might be getting this error.

FYI - I have installed the OUI patch Oracle Universal Installer release 2.2.0.18.0 for Windows and the Oracle9i Database Release 2 (9.2.0.3.0) Patch Set for Windows after I installed the 9.2.0.1 database software.
I then tried to run the DBCA tool from the 'Start > Programs>Oracle 9ihome>' menu to create the new Oracle 9.2.0.3 database but the DBCA assistant would not start up.
2. I have a related question:
Has anybody performed a downgrade of Oracle 10g database to Oracle 9.2.0.3 database using export/import?
Can you perform a full database export of the Oracle 10g database using the 9.2.0.3 export utility and then perform a full database import into Oracle 10g? I have read some documentation that states this is not possible. Can anyone verify or confirm how they did this migration? So is the only option then to perform a table or user level export?
Also, if both the databases reside on the same Windows 2003 server box, how can you ensure that the source database files are not overwritten?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Vishal.

It only happens when you have oracle 10g and Oracle 9i on the same machine.
You can run 9i dbca successfully, if you rename the 10g "orasrvm.DLL" found in any 10g BIN directory. Rename it back after you are 9i dbca is complete.
Please complete details for this issue see

Thanks

  • Cant install oracle 8i in windows 2003 server

    hi,
    I am a newbie in Oracle.While Im trying to install Oracle 8i in Windows 2003 server , setup is not running.It didn't show anything.When trying to run from auto run, after splash screen nothing came.I formatted hard disk,changed two more hard disks,.changed machine...but cant install it in no way... It is the same case in Windows XP home edition.
    But it is running in one of my friend's machine(windows 2003 server)
    Please help me with valuable solutions.
    Thanks in advance

    Did your friend install on W2003 or upgrade from an older version of the OS?
    When trying to run programs on an OS that is not certified for the programs, it is hit-n-miss whether the OS actually has the support files needed for the programs.
    Think about this: the Oracle environment needs OS support in the form of DLLs and other files. The contents of the DLLs are made visible as APIs. Each time Microsoft releases patches, it is possible that the APIs that Oracle used are changed. This is extremely true when a new version of the OS is released, and even more true with stripped versions such as XP Home.
    If your friend installed and then applied patches, [s]he may have hit the proper API combination. If you appled patches first, you may have skootched your APIs to the point that Oracle can not longer install.
    Even if you happen to get it installed, you run the risk of getting clobbered any time you install a new Microsoft patch. The risk is minimized when you use a certified combination of the OS and application.

  • Oracle 10g crashes Windows 2003 server (bluescreen)

    Hello,
    i have a problem that Oracle 10G crashes my Windows 2003 Server. All components are up-to-date and it is a certified system setup. The database worked well for months, but three days ago when our staff went to a workshop, I shut down the machine, and when we came back yesterday I just powered it up again (no changes have been done in the meantime).
    The boot procedure ended up at a bluescreen, I tried two more times with the same result. I was able to deactivate many services to narrow down the error cause. It came out that the starting of the OracleDBConsoleorcl service causes the bluescreen :
    BAD_POOL_CALLER 0x000000C2 (0x00000044,0x00000000,0x80000000,0x00000000) . This is re-producable, I just have to switch on that service and it will bluescreen the machine.
    The strange thing is, that the OracleServiceORCL is working fine, I can even use SQL-Plus and RMAN to get to the data, but without the OracleDBConsoleorcl the Enterprise manager doesnt work anymore, and our applications also cannot connect to the database. I´ve looked up the error on google, it seems to be an error in addressing memory. Anyway, the database worked fine for weeks and I wonder why I cant get it back into business anymore. Right now, i´m lost. Anybody know what to do with this error ?

    It turned out to be an error in the Windows 2003 OS-Kernel. Every install/uninstall of programs immediately leads to a bluescreen. Luckily, this can be solved with a hotfix from microsoft (you gotta email them to get it, it is not public yet). The corresponding article in the microsoft knowledge base is http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;888431
    It will install a new ntoskrnl.exe and the problem is solved afterwards (oracle DB starts again, and also the other install/uninstall problems are solved). Hint : Boot to safe mode and then install the hotfix, if you just start the hotfix it will bluescreen right when you click onto the hotfix.

  • Oracle 8i in Windows 2003 Server

    Hello,
    I know I might be asking an OLD and stupid question. But a Customer of mine is still using Oracle 8i and wants to install it in the SERVER that I supplied recently.. Tried all possibilities to install but the installation doesn't complete in WINDOWS 2003 Server. Tried installing after SP2 update, but still shows ORA-04031 Error..
    The server is IBM X3100M4 Server | XEON 4C E3 1220V2 Processor | 4GB Memory | 2x500GB HDD..
    All the hardware drivers are installed and working perfectly fine.. However while trying to install Oracle 8i it shows ORA-04031 error something related to Shared Memory. Can provide further details of error, if required.
    If somebody encountered similar problems, Please help me out here.. !!
    Thanks in Advance.

    Hi Hari,
    I also installed Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition in Windows Server 2003 on a IBM Server(which is lower model than you with 2GB RAM etc.) successfully and also installed it successfully on Windows Server 2000 on a much lower model of IBM server.
    I worked with it for a long time without any problem.
    So, don't be confuse. There may be other type of software/hardware problem with you, but sure this is not a compatibility problem i.e. Oracle 8i is good with Server 2000/2003.Until such time as it isn't. And running that combination will just about guarantee no support from Oracle when something goes wrong.
    It's like IBM told us when COBOL-85 came out. We can continue to use the older compiler and everything will work exactly the same, until such time as it doesn't.

    I'm not sure there is a supported version for your O/S but if there is you will find it by going to the downloads page at http://otn.oracle.com.
    If there isn't I'd recommend going with a currently supported version of the product rather than one whose full support has ended.

  • Best practice for # of drives for Oracle on a Windows 2003 server

    I need to know what the best practice is concerning the # of drives that should be built on a Windows 2003 server to ensure best performance and most effective back up and recovery, for both the application itself and the data base.
    I'm not certain, but it may be only a 32 bit machine. I'll update this once I know for sure.

    2. Doc 30286.1 "I/O tuning with different RAID configurations" and 148342.1 "Avoiding I/O disk contention" say:
    database files on RAID01
    redo and archive logs on RAID1
    temp on RAID1

  • Import ECC6 using DB2 9.5 in Windows 2003 server got error in Phase Insatlla database soft ware .

    Hi Expert,
    When i am going to import ECC6 in windows 2003 server  using DB9.5 i got error in phase Install data base software  like below.
    Invalid command line argument. consult the windows installer SDK for detailed command line help.
    Please help me for this error.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Thanks
    J Jana

    'invalid command line argument' - Most probably the SAPinst is not able to find the right path for the DB2 UDB DVD or the the argument is too long to interpret which is a very common problem during installations.
    Check the path for db2 DVD, and keep it shorter - that means you have to reduce the number of folders where the DVD resides. Copy the DVD in a short path let's say C:\DB2\dvdname and re-try installation by giving the new path of dvd in SAPinst.
    Thank you.

  • Install oracle 10g on windows 2003 server issues

    I am very new to oracle
    I installed oracle 10g release 2 Enterprise Edition on a Win 2003 Server.
    I got all oracle services running after install
    But I can not connect to the database from another machine which is on the same domain
    I set USE_SHARED_SOCKET =TRUE under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/Software/Oracle/HOME
    (as I learned from the forum)
    I turned off windows firewall (or with the firewall turned on add port 1521 to Exceptions list) .
    I restarted listener serivces and I even reboot the machine Still I can not connect to the database from another machine.
    What am doing wrong here?
    We are on a tight schedule now any help will be very appriciated.

    Firewall-related problems normally throw ORA-12535, not ORA-12170 (the message a timeout occurred is the same). Description for this error is:
    Error:     ORA-12170 (ORA-12170)
    Text:     TNS:Connect timeout occurred
    Cause:     The server shut down because connection establishment with a
         client failed to complete within the allotted time interval. This
         may be a result of network/system delays; or this may indicate
         that a malicious client is trying to cause a Denial of Service
         attack on the server.
    Action:     If the error occurred because of a slow network/system,
         reconfigure the SQLNET.INBOUND_CONNECT_TIMEOUT parameter in
         sqlnet.ora to a larger value. If a malicious client is suspected,
         use the address in sqlnet.log to identify the source and restrict
         access. Note that logged addresses may not be reliable as they can
         be forged (e.g. in TCP/IP).
    Hostname in listener.ora has a domain included, while in tnsnames.ora has not. Y Can you ping the host? Does tnsping work? To get more detailed informations you may turn on tracing on the client side (in sqlnet.ora) and the server sid (in listener.ora).
