Oracle Software Packager.

Hi,
I'm trying to install Oracle Software Packager version 1.7.0.20.0A
on a Win2000 Server and the setup.exe program won't run. I installed
JDK 1.1.8 for Microsoft Windows, set CLASSPATH and PATH environment
variables. The release notes states that it runs on Win2000 Professional
Workstation with no mention of Win2000 server. If it works on Win200 Prof,
shouldn't it work on Win2000 Server??
Thx,
John

It turns out that JDK1.1.8 won't work correctly on
Pentium 4 machines. Old versions of symcjit.dll
cause Oracle's setup not to run on P4 machines.
This is what worked for me:
1. Copy the contents of the \install directory to a temporary
directory on
your harddisk.
2. Search for all copies of the 'symcjit.dll' file, and rename them
to
symcjit.old'.
3. Go to the \install directory and open the 'oraparam.ini' file
for
editing.
Please note this file is write-protected.
4. Change the JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS parameter to
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m
5. Save the oraparam.ini file.
6. Start the installation again.
The answer was found here: http://www.orafaq.com/msgboard/sqlnet/messages/1514.htm
It would be nice if Oracle put this info in the friggin release notes
for the software packager. But, I guess that would be too much work.
Why does the packager still use such an old version of java??? Anyhow,
thanks Oracle for wasting 2 days of my time..

Oracle Software Packager (OSP) Latest Software & Documentation

Hi,
I am looking for latest version of OSP, when I google I got only Oracle Software Packager and Installer, Release 2.2.0.16.0 to download but I need latest version.
Where can I get the latest version of software and documentation. Please provide if anybody has any documentation on how to setup and usage etc.
Thanks a lot in advance.
- cdhar

Apparently what you found is the most current version. I contacted internal OTN support, and got this answer: "I am not aware of a more current version that what is listed."

Different Oracle Software packages

Hi,
There are different Oracle software packages at their download site:
- Database
- Application Server
- Development Tools
- Data Warehousing and Business Intelligence
- more
and each of these groups has sub-groups, e.g. under Application Server there
are
- Oracle9i Application Server
- Oracle9iAS Portal
I'm confused as to what each package does. What's the difference between
"Database" and "Application Server". Which one
do I need? And under each group, which sub-group do I need?
Is there any docs I can read on the functions of the products?
Any help is most appreciated!
Regards,
Eric

Select the books here http://otn.oracle.com/pls/db92/db92.homepage

JDeveloper and Oracle Software Packager

Is there any integration between JDeveloper 3.2 and Oracle Software Packager.
If not are there any standard 'Best Practices' for generating builds from JDeveloper in structures that can be used by OSP/OUI.
null

Please provide enough information for us to know what you are trying to do and with what version.
You could be asking about anything from the box the software comes in (if it did) to built-in PL/SQL packages and we should not have to guess at your meaning.

Oracle Software Package & Oracle Universal Installer

Some question:
- Which is the suite where Oracle Software Packager is distributed?
- Does Oracle Software Packager works fine with Oracle Universal Installer 2.1?
- Can Oracle Software Configuration Manager be a good replacement of Oracle
Software Packager?

If I understand the problem, it's a login issue. Oracle 9i, when connecting as the user sys or system, requires the role SYSDBA or SYSOPER. The problem when using the GUI tools is there's no place to enter "AS SYSDBA". You may want to try putting it in the connection (alias) field as "alias AS SYSDBA". Using the command line, it looks like: SQLPLUS "sys/pwd@alias as sysdba".

Link broken to download Oracle Software Packager

I can't download the Oracle Software Packager. I keep getting the 404 error page.
here is the start page.

where can I download this?

well, it's working now. (I had cleared out my cache and re-tried it several times before I posted the message).

Installation/Launch error Oracle Software Packager

Hi. Has anyone ever run into problems launching Oracle Software Packager after the install? I'm getting the following error log generated each time I try to run it.
"Cannot run application. Please confirm that java 1.3.1 is in the PATH. If you are running on Windows ME/95/98, you may need to increase the environment memory in order to start OSP."
"Java version used is"
java version "1.3.1_01"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1_01)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1_01, mixed mode)
I messed around the windows path and memory variables, but to no avail. I currently have j2sdk_nb installed and have been trying to run OSP 2.2.0.16.0 I'm running W2k.

This is a OUI problem.

OSP (Oracle Software Packager): 'Missing Component' when Verify Stage Area

I'm trying make a stage area for "Oracle Net 9.0.1.2.0". ( I haven´t find the way to Install alone this product with the CD's of Oracle 9iDS Release 2 ).
When I import Oracle Net 9.0.1.2.0 ( with the option "Import dependee" selected ) and make the Stage it´s gone right, but when I verify the Stage Area always show this errors;
Error: Not all the dependencies for the component Assistant Common Files
9.0.2.0.0 are found. Missing Component oracle.swd.jre 1.1.8.1.0.
Error: Not all the dependencies for the component Assistant Common Files
9.0.2.0.0 are found. Missing Compoent oracle.bali.kodiak 1.2.1.0.0.
Warning: Not all the dependencies for the component Assistant Common Files
9.0.2.0.0 are found. Missing Component oracle.jdk 1.3.1.0.0a.
I find this directories from "oracle." components in CD of Oracle 9iDS, but if I selected manually its, error that it´s show is;
The file specified is either corrupt or not a valid cmp file.
How and where I can find this components?
Thanks,
Raúl ABAD.

You have to create UP2DATE_RPM yourself. The, for your repository os, correct rpm can be downloaded from https://linux.oracle.com/switch.html f.i. to /tmp
zip up2date_comp.zip up2date-5.10.1-40.8.el5.x86_64.rpm (and maybe also the correct gnome rpm if it's not default installed).
Now this zip-file can be uploaded into the Software Library as described in OEM Advanced Configuration:
The Software Library by default contains the latest version of up2date for Red Hat Enterprise Linux 4, i386 hardware platform. If the Staging Server is of a different release version or architecture (use uname -p on your system to identify the architecture), download the appropriate version of "up2date" and "up2date-gnome" packages from the link http://linux.oracle.com/switch.html. Compress these two packages by using Zip utility into a file named "up2date_comp.zip" and replace it in the Software Library location, "Components > Oracle Components > Stage Server Up2date Component > 10.2.0.4.0 > Linux > UP2DATE_RPM".
The way I uploaded the zip file: Deployments > Provisioning > Components > Oracle Components > Stage Server Up2date Component > 10.2.0.4.0 > Linux > select UP2DATE_RPM, Edit, Upload file, Upload from Agent Machine. Select Agent and go to the directory /tmp and select up2date-comp.zip.
Maybe this not completely up-to-date anymore, but I hope it helps you.

I hope you mean when robohelp output is published to a

If that is what you meant, look at Snippet 57 on my

New version of Software Packager?

Our Company is Oracle Partner and we use Oracle Software Packager for deploying our application to our customers. It's been a while since Oracle released an update for it.
Does Oracle plan to release a new Version of Software Packager which supports products.xml or will Oracle release a new toolset for creating installation sets in the new .xml format?
Maybe the tools you internally use for creating your installation sets? Or does Oracle create everything by hand?
Thanks for your reply,
Regards Daniel

Trust me i have read every document on metalink concerning OSP more then once...
"Any question or problem with this product from non members of Oracle Partners
should be posted in the OTN forums."
If this are not the OTN forums tell me where to find them please.
(Ignoring the fact the we are oracle partners.)
I didn't criticize the support itself, it's the philosophy how oracle tries to let some products die silently, more or less ignoring the fact that they have customers which use them.
This isn't the first time/product we have to deal with that...

Software packager filemap?

I am trying to create a oracle software package via the software packager utility. When setting up the packager to add the components I would like in the installation file it it asking me to browse searching for a filemap file. This file will allow me to select from the list of oracle client components I would like included in the package. I thought that the file name would be the products.jar file but this is not working. Does anyone know what the filemap file name would be? I have not been able to find any documentation on this, an example of the file name would be very helpful. Thank you for your help.

Is anyone using Software packager?

Is there anyone on these discussion forums actually using Software Package to build custom installers for Oracle products? I have been unable to get it to function at all and we are seriously considering a move to SQLServer due to the problems making installers for 9i on windows 2000/XP platforms.
Paul

I attempted to utilize the Oracle Software Packager to perform similar tasks for installation requirements on our unix servers. Unfortunately, support for OSP is minimal to none and it did not recognize the Oracle9i format for products.jar. It seems to be specific to Oracle8i.
As for the installer, Oracle will not support you if you do not use their installer. We have had ongoing "conversations" with them about installation and deployment (as have others, this seems to be a sore spot with customers). Unfortunately, this is an area where they are deaf to the customer ... their attitude on this is "you install it Oracle's way or you go unsupported". The flexibility they had in older versions is gone and no solution seems to be on the horizon.
