Oracle Install 10G on Windows 7 PC

I am taking an oracle admin class at local college. I bought a text book " Oracle 10G Database administrator " By Gavin Powell. The publisher is Thomson Course Technology.
The book came with 2 CDs, one of them contains Oracle 10g Database(10.2.0.1.0), Enterprise edition. When I try to install that CD on my Windows 7 PC, the install fails. The CD is for previous versions of Windows.
When I called the book publisher, they told me to contact Oracle. Can anyone tell me what to do ?
My PC meets all the pre-reqs of the software, except that it has Win 7.
Thanks.

Download the appropriate version of 11gR2 for free from here - http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/index.html
Pl review and understand the license agreement before downloading and using the software.

Actually i installed TOAD for oracle v9.5 on laptop with Windows 7 ultimate
it gives 'Cannot find OCI DLL: oci.dll'. It seems TOAD for Oracle is a 32-bit only app, which means that it requires a 32-bit Client.
You might also want to stay away from installing Toad under "Program files (x86)".
Consider taking a look at Oracle SQL Developer - a very good alternative to the toad.

Unable to install Oracle Lite 10g on Windows 7 64-bit

I've tried installing Oracle Lite 10g on my Windows 7 64-bit computer but I get a message saying "JDK is not installed on machine". I even have Java installed on my computer too.
Any ideas what could be causing the issue?
Thanks
Gareth

Oracle lite 10g is not supported on Windows 7. The core issue is you are running on an unsupported platform.
You have may have to go in the docs and figure out what JDKs were supported, i think 1.4 and 1.5. and try
installing one of those and maybe you can get uninstall to work. This is just a guess though.
thanks

Can't Install Oracle Designer 10g on Windows 7

When I try to install Designer 10g on Windows 7, the installer starts up, it asks me where to install the product, I choolse C:\DevSuiteHome_1. When it asks what to install, I choose "Complete". It then asks for the e-mail server; I leave this field empty and press Next. Then the installer aborts without any error message.

Which Designer 10g? Tell us the full name of the file from which you are installing. Some versions are available on OTN that cannot be installed stand-alone - they are upgrade packs for a previous version. Designer comes as part of the Oracle Developer 10g Suite, and you must install the entire suite. Oracle Reports is particularly important, because this is the tool that Designer's reports use.
Finally, give us your entire sequence of steps, what you did, what you saw on the screen, including error messages.

Re: Can't Install Oracle Designer 10g on Windows 7

RNester,
I tried doing as you stated and Logged in as Administrator. I still get the crash of the installer after clicking Next on the SMTP screen. Is there anything else you set/did to make this successful?
Thanks in advance,
Larry

Oracle Forms 6i(32-bit) = Oracle database 10g R2 Windows 2008 R2 64-bit)

We have Oracle database 10g R2 installed on a Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) (SERVER1)
We have Oracle Forms 6i (patch 4a) installed on a Microsoft Windows XP Professional (32-bit) (SERVER2)
I am not able to connect from SERVER2 to SERVER1, either through SQLPLUS or FORMS BUILDER.
Its giving some DLL error.
Is it because forms 6i (32-bit) cannot connect to a 64-bit database on a 64-bit OS ?

There might be problems with 8i clients (like forms 6i) if the database uses AL32UTF8 characterset indeed (if you need unicode and you need to run forms 6i use UTF8 instead) but this should not be related to the platform of the database.
The platform of the database server really should not matter as the forms runtime talks via SQL*Net with the database server and in the end it does not matter if the database runs on linux, windows whatsoever or unix 32 or 64 bit for the client. The only problem you'll encounter is that SQL*Net also changes with versions and thus "older" clients might not be able to communicate with "newer" servers and vice versa.

Oracle BI 10g on Windows XP (?)

Hello everybody,
I'm very new to Discover and I need to install it on my WinXP laptop for study purposes.
Can Oracle BI 10g be installed on Windows XP ?
When installing, I receive a warning : "Oracle Business Intelligence is not certified to be used on Windows XP" but installation keeps going.
What does this mean? If I do the installation this way, will it finally work ?
Thank you very much to all!
Daniela

You are on the wrong thread.

Installing 10g on Windows XP machine JVM launcher "Can't find main class"

I am trying to install 10g Release 2 on a Windows XP machine. I downloaded the zip from the OTN. Unzipped the file. No problems. Tried to run the OUI, it opened up a shell and said to wait. The shell closed and a message frome the JVM Launcher displayed "Can't find main class. Program will exit." I have seen several people on this and other discussion boards having this problem, but have yet to get a solution. Please help.

What's the value of CLASSPATH environment variable? Possibly a non-oracle application has set this variable and the installer catches it. If there is such a variable, comment it out and try again.

Oracle 9i/10g On windows 2003

Hi All,
I have to install oracle 9i and oracle 10g on windows 2003. Can any one tell me,
1. Is there any known bug?
2. Do i need to take care of anything?
or any suggestion for how to achieve this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Akshay.

Hi Akshay
Just 1 thing for 9i
you need to install 9.2.0.3 patchset or greater for Oracle 9i on Win2K3.
any versions number lower than that it's not certified on Win2K3.
Good Luck

Installed 10g on Windows 2003 computer with existing 9i

Hi, I have just installed 10g on a PC running Win2003 with an existing 9i. When I tried logging on to 10g, it's telling me TNS protocol adapter error. I configured a new 10g listener and setup the tnsnames as well. When I started the 10g listener, it's telling me LISTENER already started (the 9i one). I stopped the 9i listener and started the 10g one, and was able to log on to 10g.
Now, how would I be able to access 9i and 10g at the same time? Also, I noticed that the 9i listener shows as Windows service, but the 10g does not.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

10g listener should be able to server 9i database as well.
If your 9i instance is not self register with 10g listener, run netca to configure your listener to include 9i instance.
