Oracle9i Personal edition on XP pro
I uninstalled the working Oracle9i standard edition and removed all the registry entries and folders. When I try to reinstall, in the universal installer navigation window destination path is empty. If I give it manually and click next, it says problem in accessing the stage area.
Anyone with clue what is happening here?
I appreciate your help
Guys,
I have been doing this for years - on solaris, linux and windows. You have 2 Oracle homes - one for the database and one for the forms. 6i - or iDS does not matter - 2 Oracle Homes. Same on Linux/Solaris/Windows - ok.
Define the TNS_ADMIN environment variable (applies to all 3 OS above). Set it to a directory of your choice - better yet create one. On solaris and linux /var/opt/oracle is a good choice. On windows create a directory of your choice. Also define the TWO_TASK and ORACLE_SID environment variables to match your database server settings.
Ftp the database server's tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files to the directory you created (TNS_ADMIN points to).
To be certain that you are not using the Forms' Home/network/admin/tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files - rename them. You will not use them and you won't need them (unless you want to edit them to include the tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora entries from your Database server's /network/admin/tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files.
That is it - next time you connect from the forms you should be able to connect. If you want provide the connect string (3rd field in the connection window) to ensure you pointing to the right db server.
You don't need to configure your Forms' network services again - all you do is use the Oracle database server's network configuration files.
Hope this proves useful.

Hi,
I downloaded the following product from your site today, Aug.17, 2002:
Oracle9i Personal Edition
Release 1 (9.0.1.1.0) for Windows 98
Part Number A95905-01
After the installation, there was a message that said that installation was completed already,
and that I had to reboot the PC. And so I did.
Please take note that my database will be a "standalone" one.
I tried connecting as scott/tiger and I also tried connecting as scott/TIGER,
and I just left the field "Host String" blank, not knowing what to put in.
Normally, I was expecting a readme.txt that will provide that useful info, but I couldn't find one
that would tell me.
Also, after I press the OK button in the ORACLE SQL*Plus Log on window,
it prompts me for an Oracle9i startup password.
(Please see attached file.)
Please advise.

Win98 was released in the late 97/98 and the Oracle version then was 7 and the then brand new 8i version. Cannot recall ever seeing 9i for Win98. Do recall running PO 7 on Win95 and Win98. -

Oracle 8.1.5 Personal Edition
Oracle does not support installing version 8.1.5 PE into
Windows Millennium.
As an unsupported workaround, you may add the following line
to the [compatibility95] section of win.ini prior to
installation:
Jrew=0x00080000
After setup is complete, Oracle will recommend a reboot.
There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;
Oracle may add a non-standard path statement to the
autoexec.bat file. Please modify this SET PATH
statement to use short-filenames if you find a quoted
LFN string represented as part of the path. You can
confirm that the path was merged successfully into the
registry after reboot by examining the PATH variable
in the registry at
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment
Symptoms of a missing Oracle path statement in the registry are that Net8 Easy Config will not launch.
Please note that Oracle does not support the use of this
product in Windows ME, but have authorized these workarounds
for testing purposes only. -
Installing Oracle8i Personal Edition, Version 8.1.5 on Windows XP Pro
I am trying to install Oracle8i Personal Edition, Version 8.1.5 on my system with Windows XP Pro on it.
After copying the CD content to the Hard Drive and renaming symcjit.dll to symcjit_back.dll, and running the setup from the oracle folder on the C drive, I am having the following error message:
" Invalid srttaging area. There are no top level components for Windows NT available for install from this satging area".
Any clue?You may want to search the database forums or All forums categories first to see if this question is already answered. I see at least 6 threads in the database category level and 21 threads when I searched all categories for "invalid staging area." If you still do not the find the answer, please repost your question in the database forum.

Unable to download Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition f
Unable to download Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP
If you read the Release notes for 9.2.0.3 for Win 2003, it says
"Releases prior to the 9.2.0.3.0 patch set are not certified on Windows Server 2003".
You'll avoid known and maybe some unknown problems with it, so just install 9.2.0.1 and then apply 9.2.0.3 patch set and be happy :)

Hi,
Ive just been trying to download your Oracle9i Database Release Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP for my home computer, but it wont even download properly. The Disk 1 file, "92010NT_Disk1.zip", intializes, and downloads in less than a second, saying all 67.7kb is complete, taking into consideration the file is over 600mb big. When i open the *.zip file, its absolutely empty. I tried the links for Disk 2 and Disk 3, and they are working perfectley.
Whats going on?
Is there a bug on my side, or OTN's?
Will this be fixed soon?
Or should i download an older version?
A little feed back would be grately appreciated, due to the fact i cant find the latest version of Oracle anywhere else on the World Wide Web.
Thank you for your time.

PS: Your "Preview" Button didnt seem to work for me either.Hi Peter,
I downloaded the same zip files as you did for my home pc. The first zip file was not able to be unzipped by winzip. So I had to download the fisrt zip file again from OTN and the second time it was fine. I got all three zip files extracted and ran the setup.exe. Everything was fine till this point.
My problem is that Oracle 9i release 2 personal edition is not for XP home edition. I couldn't get the database correctly configured.
