Oracle XE Western version not working on Windows XP pro

I have noticed that production version of the Oracle XE Western version does not work properly. The beta version created the database properly, the production version does not. I tried to install it on a Windows XP Pro version.

I think the relevant error from the log file is as follows
ORA-01565: error in identifying file 'C:\oracle\xeprod\oradata\XE\system.dbf'
ORA-27041: unable to open file
OSD-04002: unable to open file
O/S-Error: (OS 2) The system cannot find the file specified.

There are a couple of things to consider here
Why is this install going into c:\oracle\xeprod ? If should be going into C:\oraclexe. Did you do something to change the default install infrastructure ?
Secondly - sometimes we see this unable to open file error message if some other process is reading the file at the same time as the installer is trying to install it. Anti virus software and Google desktop have been culprits to date.

  • Oracle OutSideX Viewer is not working in Window 7

    Hi All,
    We are having standard client/server application which uses oracle outsidex activex control as OLE viewer container for viewing office files.
    this controls works file in XP machine, but failed to work from Window 7 (64bit).
    It failed to call outsidex method -Object.ViewFile(false, finename, 0, 0, false, "", false, "");
    Error is "this method cannot be invoked in a Windowless state!"
    Best regards
    Prasad
    Edited by: user13302064 on Oct 19, 2011 6:36 AM

    This error is likely related to the Viewer library (sccvw.dll) and indicates that it cannot be loaded. First reason could be missing Visual C++ package and another could be that FilterPath variable is not pointing to the location of the OIT libraries. Refer to the 2.2 Installing the ActiveX Control as Part of Your Application: http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E16184_01/dev.837/e12847/c02_gettingstarted.htm
    If this is not the case than I'm out of idea.
    Regards,
    Boris

  • 32-bit Oracle ODBC Driver does not work under Windows 64-bit

    We have both Oracle Server 64-bit (10.2.0.3) and Oracle Client 32-bit (10.2.0.1) installed on the same Windows 2003 64-bit server.
    We can create and test 64-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 64-bit ODBC Administrator.
    We can also create a 32-bit Oracle ODBC System DSN using 32-bit ODBC Administrator.
    However, the "test connection" does not work:
    Unable to connect
    SQLState=IM003
    Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 998 (Oracle in OraClient10g_home32)
    We need the 32-bit driver due to 32-bit applications acessing the local 64-bit Oracle server.
    How should we accomplish this?
    Thanks.

    I applied 10.2.0.3 path to Oracle Client 32-bit and now the error is different.
    This error message appears 3 times before configuring, creating or testing a System DNS:
    "An unsupported operation was attempted."
    I just click OK 3 times and then can configure, create or test the DSN.
    However the 32-bit application still cannot access Oracle...

    Hi,
    When you try to start the Remote Destop Connection, what errors it showed out?
    Could the other PCs connect this PC with the RDC?
    So you have read this blog?
    RDP connections might fail due to a problem with KB2621440 - MS12-020
    Did you reinstalled the KB2621440?
    Besides, did you follow this guide to enable the RDC connection?
    Connect to another computer using Remote Desktop Connection
    And also this guide?
    Why can’t I connect using Remote Desktop Connection?
    Please take a check with those settings again.
    Best regards

  • USB MIDI not working in Windows 7 Pro 64-bit

    The problem is that even though my devices are recognized in Control Panel/ Sound and in Device Manager, no MIDI data actually flows and I cannot sync my keyboard to the Yamaha software that edits it.  The error message in the Yamaha software reads
    “The following MIDI ports can not be opened at this time”.   At first, MIDI was working and I could sync up, but after about a week, right around the time I uninstalled and re-installed a MS Lifecam, it failed and has not worked since.
    I have been working directly with Yamaha tech support on the issue for some time. I have a Yamaha SX70 XS keyboard, which is recognized by Windows as a connected USB device. It is self-powered, not powered by USB. I am using the Yamaha USB-MIDI driver version
    3.1.2 for Windows 7 64-bit (the latest driver). And the latest versions of all their editing software for Win7 64-bit. They assure me that those work for other users of Win7 64-bit. In my case though, everything shows up in Windows, but MIDI doesn’t actually
    work. And I cannot sync to the keyboard due to the above error message.
    Yamaha tells me that their USB-MIDI driver is installing fine on my machine, except that it’s missing a windows driver at the bottom of the driver stack. (You can see this in Device Manager, Properties/Driver tab, then Driver Details. The missing driver
    is ksthunk.sys, which I think handles kernel streaming. Sounds like that would relate to MIDI data. They have never heard of this driver not showing up there, and they cannot reproduce the problem. ksthunk.sys is on my machine in c:\windows\system32\drivers\
    and in the registry the image path is \SystemRoot\system32\drivers\ksthunk.sys
    All devices are “working properly” in Windows Device Manager, despite that missing driver. Yamaha MIDI Driver is shown in Control Panel/Sound, and it can be worked with there (opened, closed, configured, etc.).  I have also tried three different USB
    cables (but those shouldn't be an issue since the keyboard is showing up in Windows).
    I was also advised by Yamaha to edit registry key  HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Drivers32  and remove all midi, midi1, midi2, etc entries, then uninstall and reinstall all drivers. Which I did, but it didn't help.
    So far, no amount of re-installation, event viewing, uninstalling devices, numerous reboots,etc has fixed it. On this machine, that driver just doesn’t hook up to the Yamaha MIDI driver and show up in the stack.
    So it looks like it may be a Windows 7 config problem on my machine, and I'm hoping someone here can give me some advice on how to fix it. The Microsoft forums contain a fair number of users reporting similar problems, some are audio and some are webcam
    related. I've followed those threads, and done several of the suggestions, but haven't found a solution to this one.
    This is a Dell XPS 8300 Windows 7 64-bit PC with all the latest updates, only about six weeks old. I've been struggling with the MIDI problem for most of that time.  I'm an IT professional (network and systems admin), so you can be fairly technical
    in your response.
    Any suggestions will be welcome. Thanks in advance.

    I am so glad I found keyman7's description, since I have exactly the same problem.
    The problem is not related to MIDI output! I have it with a pure USB-MIDI-input device (keyboard), whichs produces "unknown externeal error" every time I try to select it as input. The same thing occurs with a USB-MIDI-Cable.
    I compared the driver details from my system (Dell T1500 windows 7 pro 64 bit) with those of another windows 7 pro 64 bit. On that other system the device works like a charm (so it is not the hardware, either).
    On the other system I find ksthunk.sys in addition to the modules that are listed on my system as well (beeing \windows\system32\drivers\drmk.sys, ..\prtcls.sys, ..\USBAUDIO.sys and \windows\system32\SysFx.dll, ..\WMALFXGFXDSP.dll).
    Can it be some other USB driver is interfering with this driver stack? I have no idea how to figure out which one it could be. Or, it has been suggested in other threads with somewhat similar looking symptoms, ksthunk.sys has been removed as  UpperFilters
    entry?
    Help - please!

    This pretty much says it all:
    No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.What version of Vista?
    What version of the agent? ... 10g is not a version number it is a marketing label
    Did you check to see if the agent is compatible with your operating system?
    My recommendation would be to get a real operating system: Either Oracle Linux or XP.

  • Usb keyboard not working in windows xp pro sp2 , drivers not installing rig

    I just got this mac book pro. Haven't owned a mac sense LC II.
    I got a stand for the notebook at www.raindesigninc.com the mstand and I got the $50 aluminum usb keyboard apple sells.
    I installed windows xp on a 50 gb partition, put the bootcamp in got all the drivers installed.
    Then I got to the office today plugged in my apple keyboard and it was not recognized. I didn't have the bootcamp cds with me at the office.
    Are the drivers for the aluminum apple usb keyboard on the bootcamp cd?
    I've done some searching on google, and the only solution that i've read is downloading a new version of bootcamp then using a program called transmack to pull the driver out of the bootcamp image file. I hope there is a simpler soution that won't take up so much time.
    So do I need to put bootdisk in again to get the drivers for this usb keyboard? Or how can I get this to work as it is now the usb keyboard doesn't work. I had to take the laptop off of the mstand and use its own keypad.

    found out i just needed to put in the cd that came with the mac book pro

  • Bootcamp bluetooth mice not working in windows 7 pro

    I have an early 2008 MBP and just installed Windows 7. I cannot, for the life of me, get either of my bluetooth mice to connect in Windows 7. Both worked in XP and both work in Mac OS. The install is a clean one, not an upgrade. The mice are an older Logitech MX Revolution BT mouse and a Razer Orochi. During setup, they appear to connect, but don't. On second try, the bluetooth connection window just keeps spinning while connecting to the mouse (no system or app hangs, just no activity.) Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks, alrich68.
    Just before I checked your reply, I found a VERY similar post on MacRumors with a couple more steps and clarification on why the problem exists -
    http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=630024
    gloss wrote
    It took me two hours, but I fixed this last night.
    First off, you need to go into Mac OS and remove the keyboard and mouse from your Bluetooth settings entirely. You'll add it back in later.
    Boot into Windows.
    Click on the Bluetooth control panel, and go to settings. Under Hardware, it probably says 'Generic Bluetooth Adapter'.
    Click 'Properties' and 'Change Settings'.
    Go to drivers, and 'Update Drivers'. Have Windows look on your machine to find all available drivers ('Let me pick from a list')
    UNselect 'Show Compatible Drivers'.
    Look for 'Apple' in the manufacturer names, then select the Apple Bluetooth Driver. Install.
    Once this is done, pair your keyboard through the wizard. It should now bring up a passcode and confirm it much more quickly than before.
    Once this is done, go back to Bluetooth settings and return the Drivers to 'Windows Generic'. If you leave it on the Apple drivers the keyboard will disconnect randomly and frequently.
    Your keyboard will now be paired, but won't work. Go to the Device Manager, right click on the entry for the wireless keyboard.
    Click on 'services'.
    It should bring up a single entry for keyboard/mouse HID services. Click this and press Apply or OK. After it installs, you should be golden.
    There are two issues here - one is that Mac OS seems to 'reserve' the Bluetooth device such that it won't pair correctly with any iteration of Windows while it's already paired in OSX. It works fine the other way around, however, so you need to make sure it's set up in Windows before Mac OS.
    Second, there's a Bluetooth driver issue in Windows 7 such that it won't pair with the keyboard - it'll run through the steps, but the keyboard itself will not appear to actually 'get it'. Switching to the Apple drivers briefly will ameliorate this and allow proper pairing, but to actually keep the keyboard working you should use the built-in drivers.
    Thanks again alrich68. Seeing the instruction worded in two slightly different manners, suddenly made sense. I now have the Mighty Mouse working as well! Work the first try!!
    Chock another one up for the user base being more inventive and imaginative than the Apple engineers!!
    I agree with other comments, that this solution SHOULD have been released as an official Apple Support post, and not having to rely on the user base to struggle with this problem to ultimately figure out a solution.
    BTW - for those who may think apple actually reads these posts, they typically don't unless someone calls in on Apple Care and points out the problem and posts to the support tech. The forum is USER managed. So, unless someone actually calls Apple Care or sends an offical http://www.apple.com/feedback/ post, Apple does not know what happens here.
    Anyway, thanks again!
