Oracle8i & Oracle9iAS problem

I have been having probelms installing 9iAS. On a completly clean NT Server machine I installed Oracle8i and created a DB. Tested it and it worked fine. I then installed 9iAS and used that DB for the Wireless repository (by the way can this option be turned off?). When the installation had completed an instance of SQL*Plus was started but it couldn't connect. It seems that installing 9iAS has corrupted the Oracle8i TNS listener as the service will not start? Before I reformat my machine and try again I was wondering if anyone had any ideas why this happened?????

dear sir,
have you really read the installation guide before you install the 9ias?
Do you know that oracle 8i and 9ias cannot share the same home? Because it will damage your existing network configuration and others common libraries?
What you need to do is, Install your 9ias into different home and re-configure 9ias network to access your database.
Don't change anything for services which contains word icache.
TQ.
Good luck.

  • Oracle8i Installation Problems with RedHat 6.1

    Hi all,
    The Oracle8i installation process for Linux has MUCH room for improvement. After retrieving the so-called "User Friendly Install of Oracle8i on RedHat 6.1", I followed the steps diligently and after extending my swap space, I managed to get the install to work - sort of.... the install of "Database Assistant" failed.. Help on this issue if appreciated. However, a solution to the next problem is much needed:
    After exiting the installer, I go $ORACLE_HOME/install/utl and run the "linux.sh" script (as given in the guide). This script is not successful-it does not find a library "-ldl". Is this an Oracle library? Help! I cannot proceed with the installation until I can get this to work!

    Take a closer look were it fails exactly.
    The linux.sh mainly calls the MaKe files in different directories to link the products together. dl is a library which should be found in your PATH staement. Use ldconfig -p to see which lib-path are include in your ld-path. Make shure that you've included the ld_library_path statement in your root .profile.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • Manually install Oracle8i:DBMS_Standard problem,help!

    I tried to manually install Oracle8.1.7 on Win2K, successfully created an instance and attempted to create a new database using command CREATE DATABASE, the newly creately database can be connected by INTERNAL. But I failed in running catproc.sql under SVRMGR, the main error messages are like 'DBMS_STANDARD package must be created before using SQL*Plus', and 'package STANDARD not accessible'.....could anyone tell me how to solve this problem?
    great appreciation

    by the way, i used command ORADIM -NEW -SID xxx -INTPWD xxx to create the new instance
    and i did not use oracle assistant to create the new database, instead, I used command CREATE DATABASE xxx LOGFILE xxx CONTROLFILE xxxx.....
    also i did set the ORACLE_SID to new SID.....

  • Oracle9i + Oracle9iAS - problem on Config Oracle Portal

    I have instaled in a single server Win2000 - Oracle9i - Oracle9iAS
    I have completed of forms on installing, but when I lanch the

    Can you help me with that problem, please?
    I have tried this vey much times, and can't understud where is
    problem.

    I assume you are trying to get 9ias Release 1 installed into the 9i database. If so, you must apply the Oracle 8.1.7.3 Server patch set to the 9iAS Release 1 Home. It will update some files to resolve the connectivity issue. I ran into this at a client about 4 months ago. Just be sure to set your Home to the 9ias home not the 9i database and then run the OUI to apply the 8173 patch to it.

    I got a problem to install Oracle8i with the following Operating
    System:
    1) Windows 2000 Professional
    2) CPU P4 1.6G
    3) Ram Bus: 256M

  • Oracle8i Start problem - TNS:Service Name Incorrect

    Hi Folks
    My installation of Oracle8i was working fine. I installed webDB today and that was worked fine too.
    But before shutting down the machine I forgot to shutdown the database.
    When I reboot and try to start the database as root thus: ./oracle8i start, I get the following error -
    ORA-12162 TNS:Service name is incorrectly specified.
    Looks like something is wrong with SID or TNSNAMES.
    Could somebody suggest a solution please.
    Thanks.

    For information sake, if someone else comes across the same situation, here is the cause and solution:
    When webDB2.2 is installed it seems to make an entry in the /etc/oratab file for the service name that is provided during installation. Cosequently my 'oratab' file went from:
    ora8i:/../oracle/product/8.1.6:Y
    To:
    *:/../oracle/product/8.1.6:Y
    ora8i:/../oracle/product/webdb22:N
    Hence the problem when 'oratab' is invoked.
    I don't know if webDB is supposed to make this kind of a change.
    I replaced the '*' with 'ora8i' and everything works fine including webDB

  • Personal Oracle8 reinstallation problem

    I've had Oracle8 Personal Edition installed on my Win'98. I uninstalled it, and tried installing it again from Oracle8 Enterprise Edition (Win NT) client onto Win'98. It copies all files over, and toward the end, it gives me a message of ORAINST caused an invalid page fault in module MSVCRT.DLL at 0167:7801425c. Could you please help?
    null

    Hi Gina,
    You did not mention the Oracle release version. The MSVCRT.DLL error might suggest you're using a release with a non Y2K compliant Oracle Installer (<33110).
    Try to download a Y2K compliant one from metalink or try http://www.chow1.myweb.nl.
    At that site you can find the ftp-oracle site

  • Oracle8i Install problem. - Cannot Create DB w/ DBAssist.

    Help me!
    I've tried to install 8i on redhat 6.0 with 2.2.5 kernel...
    Jre worked.
    Tcl worked.
    runInstaller started without problem.
    Netassist worked.
    But! DBAssist was stucked...
    At that time, Acount was 'oracle' of 'oinstall',
    but dbassits said "JNLS Exception:" as usuall.
    so I proceeded with "OK".
    my choice was,
    Create a database
    Custom
    OLTP
    connection 5.
    Dedicated server mode
    off all other options ( 'cause it was first time )
    sid = test0901
    for all other options, I used default..
    Create now...
    However, that bloody DBASSIST said..
    "ORA-01031 : Insufficient privilege"
    Does it make sense? Manual says I shoul work on installation
    with 'oracle' of 'oinstall' but DBASSIST said 'oracle' is lack
    of privilege!.
    so, I aborted dbassist and, I tried again as 'admin' of 'dba',
    This time it said.
    "DBCA-00047 : Unable to create destination directory.."
    I've been spending almost 5 day with this lovely s/w....
    Plz help me..T.T...

    Make sure that the oracle user account belong to the dba group
    when you create oracle user ID.

  • Oracle8i DBA problem

    while I use sqlplus, after I input the user name and password, a
    error reported:
    ora-01034 : oracle is not available.
    Maybe this is because I had runned a program which consume lots
    of system resources. But now the program is stopped.
    Now what can I do to start the database? I can not use sqlplus to
    startup database.
    thanks for your help.
    null

    1 - Can you connect " / as dba " from the net?
    You must connect as internal if Oracle is not available.
    Check the authentication methods configured.
    2 - check your alert_<SID> file for ORA-???? errors.
    3 - Can you reproduce the error? Look for errors in you Trace
    files / trace the sessions.
    4 - If running a heavy process, are you sure you didn't run
    out of VM.
    5 - There is a specific list for Oracle 8i (maybe the linux
    section) that might have more usefull info.
    6 - Trace the session for this specific heavy process and
    look for errors ( and hope it is not ORA-00600 ).
    You can find the statement that caused the error in the
    trace files ( if any errors happened ).
    7 - If using WinNT you will need aconsole access to restart it.
    With Unix, telnet will do it.
    If a crach happened you may need to shut it down first
    with the ABORT mode. Just to clean-up memory.
    IF A CRASH HAPPENED:
    - Unix - look for "ipcs -a" pending mem segments.
    - NT - reboot, as always.
    8 - Restart as usual.
    9 - SQL*Plus is NOT the best tool for starting up/shutting it
    down.
    Good Luck!

  • Oracle9iAS Server on Sun Solaris 8

    Hello all,
    I have succesfully installed Oracle Personal 8i, Oracle8i, Oracle9iAS and Oracle Forms Developer 6i on Windows95, Windows98 and Windows2000.
    Now I would like to install Oracle9iAS v1.0.2.2 for Sun SPARC Solaris on my Intel based PC that is running on Solaris8 Operating System.
    I downloaded all 13 files of Oracle9iAS v1.0.2.2 for Sun SPARC Solaris (along with the script file 9iAS10220.sh), and burnt these on 6 CD's. I copied the same files from the CD's over to the hard disk's directory /export/home/orcldisk. I have also unpacked the 13 files by running the script file 9iAS10220.sh. The end result was five (5) folders were created in /export/home directory. The 5 folders were named Disk1, Disk2, Disk3, Disk4 and Disk5.
    Directory Disk1 has a folder named install, which has the images folder and the solaris folder. The solaris folder, in turn, has the executable file runInstaller. While I am in the File Manager - orcldisk window, I tried to install Oracle9iAS by double-clicking on the executable file runInstaller. A Run window displayed the message "ksh: /export/home/orcldisk/Disk1/install/solaris/runInstaller: cannot execute.
    Can someone please tell me if I have the Oracle9iAS software for the right platform. If I do, how do I install Oracle9iAS v1.0.2.2 for Sun SPARC Solaris on my Intel based PC that is running on Solaris8 Operating System?
    I will very much appreciate any help anyone can offer.

    The foregoing list shows that I do not have sufficient disk space. Oracle Install documentation says I should have 3GB for a full install. My second hard disk should be able to handle this, but I do not know yet how I can add more disk space to the file system. Can you please tell me how I can do this?
    Meanwhile I am deleting the 13 files 9iAS10220_part1 through 9iAS10220_part13 to free up some disk space. Having extracted files and created Disk1 through Disk5, I do not think I will need these 13 files anymore.
    I am still trying to understand what runInstaller script is trying to do.

  • Bug calling PL/SQL procedure from Java

    Has anybody encountered this problem/know the solution to the following problem?
    I have a collection of Java Beans that call the database (8.1.6). The code works perfectly except when done through a user on the DB who only has permissions to execute the PL/SQL code defined by another user AND when I use the thin drivers.. using OCI works a treat.
    The error appears to be a security exception saying that no table or view was found 'ORA-00942: table or view does not exist'..
    This does not happen for all of the procedures, only the ones that return ref cursors.
    This code worked fine on Oracle8, the problem is limited to 8i and thin drivers.
    Any suggestions as to what the problem could be/confirmation that it is a bug with Oracle would be appriciated.
    Thanx,
    - Chris.

    I have seen this behavior too. Oracle, could you please respond on this one.

  • Portal very slow?

    I have installed Oracle8i, Oracle9iAS and Portal on the same PC(standalone)
    It is a P3-700Mhz - 128 MB
    When i'm developping Portal Applications, it is very slow.
    Should i upgrade the memory to 256 MB?
    Will it make a greate difference?

    I've installed and run Portal on Linux, Windows NT, Windows 2000 and Solaris and AIX on multiple types and sizes of systems. The smallest of which is a PII 233 with 384Megs of RAM. In this case, I am the only one developing on the machine so there's no contention, but it performs well considering...
    Make sure you size the instance correctly. Modifying memory parameters can make a big difference. At least is has in my experience. Get your DBA to take a look at the memory consumption and the SGA parameters.
