Oracle Database 10g relase 1 Installation Problem on RHEL 3 ES

Dear all
I'm trying to install oracle database 10g r1 X86_64 on Intel Xeon Machine with EM64T technology with RHEL 3 ES update 2 X86_64 edition. The problem is described below :
Oracle OUI .runInstaller collapsed with such a following error:

Function=[Unknown.]

Is there anyone can help me ??

Check pushitz website and ensure that you have all the required rpms installed properly.
Check the log files in the installation directory. That should give some more details as to what exactly is going on.

Unable to continue Oracle Database 10g R2 installation on IBM AIX 5.3L

I am facing some difficulties in installing the above. My environment is as follows:
Server is a IBM system P, OS is AIX 5.3L and oracle version is Oracle Database 10g R2 (10.2).
I encounter my problem when asked to changed/edit the shell script when changing oracle users. I can't find the % vi .login file. And I'm not sure how to proceed.
Please advice as to what needs to be done.
Thank you

i'm using bash shell.If you are using a bash shell then .bash_profile is used by default.
It is located in user's home, if it does not exist then simply create it.
can this file be edited after installation?Yes. And also you can set the enviroment temporary (just for current session)
I just can't find the vi .login file."vi" is command (text editor very common in Unix and Unix like world)
.login does not need to exist (see .bash_profile as above). Note .login is ignored by bash shell.

Oracle Database 10g r2 download problems

I cannot seem to download oracle database 10g release 2 for windows at all. I have tried consistently the entire day. Is it available for download?
As I need this software quite urgently, are there any mirror sites or alternative sites that I can download it from? Or is there anywhere that I can source the installation cd's from... I am based in Johannesburg, South Africa?

Which one is best for an x86_64 install?These options are platform independent (x86_64). These options are dependent on purpose of use.
I plan to recompile PHP 5.2.0 to connect to the Oracle database.This is the purpose. And according this information I suggest you to install InstantClient.
Note standalone Instant client is shipped also as separate installation archive, so you don't need to download whole DB installation archive. You can find it here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html
I would like to install client software on a different machine which is running Fedora Core 5 with IP address 192.168.0.5. But the Universal Installer refuses to run on Fedora Core 5 -- it is not a supported operating system. There is no magic to allow running a client on Fedora Core 5 or 6?Yes, there is. Execute: ./runInstaler -ignoreSysPrereqs

My database version is 10.2.0.1.0 Oracle express.
Operating system is Windows Vista.
I started installing using the following commands.
@ C:\temp\apex\apexins.sql
it prompts me for the values of sysaux sysaux temp and c:\temp\apex\images\
If I supply the value for images the sqlplus window closes after scrolling a lot of info.
Enroute it also prompts me for a value for 9:
I don't know what the input shall be.
Then it again stops at enter value for version:
I used 3.2.1.0
The window scrols a while and closes.
later I changed the password and ran the command.
@c:\temp\apex\apxldimg.sql c:\temp
but no success with installation.
the output is as following.

Problem: Oracle Database 10g Release 2 can only be installed in a new Oracle Home
Recommendation: Choose a new Oracle Home for installing this product
though I am installing it in different oracle homes why i am getting this error?
Is it because 10g installation is picking the same oracle inventory /oracle/inventory
do i need to make different oracle inventory for different oracle homes???????plz confirm..is thats the reason i am getting this error??????
Thanks inadvance

I figure out you are trying to install 10gR2 on top of an existing 9iR2 Oracle Home. This is corrected at the Path definition window. Most probably you just click on the <Next> and by default the 9iR2 Oracle Home was selected. You must define a new oracle home for the 10gR2 install.

Installation of Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003 Server

Hi Guys,
We have to install Oracle Database 10g 10.2.0.3 on Windows 2003.
I read on net, metalink and OTN as well and it seems there is no single 10.2.0.3 setup available to do so.
One has to upgrade from earlier version to 10.2.0.3.
Is that so? Is this the only way?
I mean if we want new and fresh 10.2.0.3 then don't we have installer for it?
In this case we will have to install 10.1.0.2 and then upgrade? (we have 10.1.0.2 installable with us)
And if at all that is the only path available then for 10.2.0.3 on Windows 32 bit - Patchset 5337014 i.e. p5337014_10203_WINNT.ZIP from metalink is the correct patch?
Thanks in advance!

Hi guys,
I donwloaded patchset - 5337014, and in its readme it is specified to download and install patch - 5601428.

Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Installation

Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Beta 2 Release for Microsoft Windows installation successful, no problems.

Hi Rekha,
The format mask 999G999G999G999G990D0000 is the format mask that I selected from the software itself. I also use this format mask for a single record update. If' s ok, no error, but with tabular form with multiple record update, it shows error .I also changed the decimal point to two digits ,select from software pop-up window (this was tested in the workspace provide by Oracle). It still shows error. Last test I put the space like 1 111,111.00 in a single record update it shows error (but if I put 1 in front of 111,111 without space it's ok-no space before). My point is from user point of view.In the first time user input 100000 the software accept it. Opp! it has to be 1100000. The user comes back after submit and put 1 without comma.It shows error (in tabular form with multiple record update not in single row update). While in the first time the user do not to key any comma at all. This may makes some confuses both the users and the developers which had to check error by adding program to checking some where in Page Processing or Page Rendering.
Thanks

Installation error - Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

Hi - I've just tried to install Oracle Database 10g Express Edition from the Oracle website and I'm getting this error.
Error 1327 Invalid Drive: I:\ . I've googled the error but can't find much. It seems that the path is hardcoded into the msi installation package.
Anyone else seen this issue before as I'm at a loss at what to do ?
I'm wondering do I have to create an I:\ drive on my machine but that seems a little unusual
Hope someone can help
Cheers.

This problem may occur if you have used the Disk Administrator utility included in Microsoft Windows to change the drive letter of the hard disk that the operating system is installed on, for example, the C drive.
The problem occurs because the Oracle Universal Installer uses registry keys to determine the locations of certain folders that are required to install Oracle. If the drive letter of the hard disk that contains the operating system has been changed, the registry keys refer to nonexistent folders and Setup fails.
To correct this problem, use the Windows Disk Administrator program to restore the drive letter of the hard disk to its original value:
1. Click Start, point to Programs, point to Administrative Tools, and click Disk Administrator.
2. Right-click the drive whose letter you want to change. On the shortcut menu, click Assign Drive Letter.
3. Select the correct drive letter from the list and click OK.
If you are prompted to quit the Disk Administrator or to restart your computer, do so. Once the computer has restarted, attempt to install again.

Doubt regarding Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) installation

hello
my pc has following configurtion
256mb ram
60gb hdd
p4 2.4 ghz
win xp pro sp2
I want to know if my pc will be able to run " Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) " standard edition on it.
<<http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winsoft.html>>
I thought of increasing RAM, but it is not feasible.
I know i could run oracle XE, but can my pc also run the standard edition.
I could not find minimum hardware requirements for standard edition on this site.
anyway, i will use it for sql and and other advanced concepts in RDBMS which i may learn during my course in database. so i prefer standard edition instead of XE
any help greatly appreciated
thanks in advance

I suggest you not to doubt regarding Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) installation.
It is not necessary. If you don't receive an answer within a reasonable amount of time you could edit your thread with whatever ( a period is enough) to raise it to the top once again.

Problem about using Oracle Form 6i to connect Oracle Database 10g express.

Sorry to interrupt all of you.
I have encountered a problem about using Oracle Form 6i to connect Oracle Database 10g express.
As I would like to
I use Oracle Net8 Easy Config to create a connection.
According to "tnsnames.ora", the paramater of connection is as follows;
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = XE))
Unfortunately, when I use Oracle Net8 Easy Config to test the connection, an error message is prompted as follows:
Connecting....
The test did not succeed.
ORA-03106: fatal two-task communication protocol error
There may be an error in the fields entered
or the server may not be ready for a connection.
You can check the server and retry, or continue.
After I google it, I still have no idea how to solve the problem. I would like to ask, could anyone mind providing some hints or solution to address the issues.
Thanks for your assistance in advance.

I don't believe the Net8 Easy Config (NEC) will create a compatible entry in the tnsnames.ora. I have Forms 6i running successfully against a 10g Express database, but I did not use the NEC - I created the entry myself. Here is the entry I use:
XE=
(DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS=
      (PROTOCOL=TCP)
      (HOST=<<servername or IP address>>)
      (PORT=1521)
    (CONNECT_DATA=
      (SERVER=dedicated)
      (SERVICE_NAME=XE)
)Hope this helps,

default name that is XE and there is no option come during installation where i can put the name of database as per my desire.First, note that you can't install more than one instance of XE per server. Changing the instance name won't help you with that.
As you've already found out, the installer always creates a database instance with default names. That's part of the "Express" concept: As little configuration as necessary to get a Oracle Database installed with just a few clicks. The second advantage is, that you can also simplify the documentation, as you can forget about several aspects when you don't have to configure them...
Since you don't have tools like dbca in XE, your only option would be to rename the database once it's created. There are a few threads on that topic in this forum, e. g. {thread:id=403056}.
But before you start working on that, could you explain why exactly you have to use a different database/instance name?
And also explain why we use "Oracle database 10g Express Edition" instead of Oracle database 10g. what is the meaning of Express Edition.Why and how should we answer why you picked a certain edition? The most likely cause is license costs: XE is available for free, all others are just free as long as you use the OTN license...
For an overview, there is a [url http://www.oracle.com/us/products/database/enterprise-edition/comparisons/index.html]Comparison Matrix for Oracle Database Editions.
I'd furthermore ask why you still use 10g XE instead of the current 11g XE?
