Hi
I need help with determining which order I should upgrade my system. I need to upgarde both oracle and os server:
Oracle version 9.0.1.3 to 11g (I know that i will have follow upgrade path as per oracle matrix)
Windows server 2000 - 2008 (I know that i=I need to go to 2003 before 2008)

Thanks.

Hi;
I need help with determining which order I should upgrade my system. I need to upgarde both oracle and os server:
Oracle version 9.0.1.3 to 11g (I know that i will have follow upgrade path as per oracle matrix)You need to be 9.2.0.8 level to make 11gr2 direct upgrade
My question is do I upgrade oracle to 11g first on windows 2000, or upgrade the Windows OS first and then oracle? also what are the implications if any?I suggest see below notes:

Oracle XE 11g and Windows Server 2008 - 64 bits

Hello,
my questions are :
- is Oracle XE working on 64 bits (windows)
- if it doesn't :
- is an update coming ?
- is there any solution to make Oracle XE running with Win2008 Server 64 bits (i tried, but i had many problems with execution of listener)
Thx for your informations.

Hello, and welcome to the OTN forums!
You could have used the search forum to find answers to these frequently asked questions...
However, I give you a short intro:
- is Oracle XE working on 64 bits (windows)There is no general answer to that question. As you've found out, there is no installer for 64bit Windows. As for 32bit, there are several Windows versions that are listed in the [url http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17781_01/install.112/e18803/toc.htm#BABHICJH]System Requirements section of the XE Installation Guide, and a few you won't find there, e.g. Vista or Home Editions. This means you'll probably experience problems when trying to install on any OS version not listed there. Some of them might be worked around, others may not.
Since your target is Windows Server 2008 (edition?), you might get a more precise answer when you search for that.
- is an update coming ?See {thread:id=2277728} .
In addition to that, {thread:id=2278170} contains an overview for the state of all operating systems.
- is there any solution to make Oracle XE running with Win2008 Server 64 bits (i tried, but i had many problems with execution of listener)The safest way would be to use a VM with a supported operating system.

You said, "...+I would like to install Release 2(11.1.1.2.0)+ ...". Be careful. 11.1.1.2.0 is not Release 2. The version for Rel 2 is 11.1.2.0, notice that there is one less "1". Also, there is no way to patch from Release 1 to Release 2.
In EDelivery, this is what you should find if you search on "Oracle Fusion Middleware" for "Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)":
First look for this link then drill into it:
Oracle Fusion Middleware 11g Media Pack for Microsoft Windows x64 (64-bit)
In this section you will find the following:

Transfering information between Oracle 8 and SQL Server 2000

I want to transfer some of the data stored in 4 different tables in my Oracle database and easy as possible to my SQL Server 2000 database. I found the import option in SQL2k which uses ODBCconnection to the Oracle but it needs the migration suit as far as I know. At the downloadarea there are only plug-ins for SQL Server 7 but not 2000.
Am I even on the right track or is there any other way of accomplishing this?

is there any known problem if I install Oracle 10g EE
on the same machine where Sql Server 2000 EE is
install?It's presently undocumented, but some of the ORACLE.EXE process threads are known to get stuck in an infinite loop whenever a SQL Server database is running on the same box. The infinite loops cause the SQL Server database to eventually shutdown, and then the loops are broken and Oracle returns to normal. Stack traces have revealed something like this, which would suggest that the Oracle process is actually communicating with SQL Server:
Oracle: laughAtGirlieDatabase() /* infinite loop */
SQL: exit();-)

About memory issue during installing Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2003

Hi, all
When I installed Oracle 11g on Windows Server 2003 which the server is a virtual server, Oracle only can detect 2G memory.
But there are 4G memory with my server.
I want to know if the Oracle 11g's new feature or the virtual server lead the issue.
Also , I want to get your help to resolve the issue, thanks a lot.

Let me get this straight:
You have created some virtual machine using someone's unknown VM software.
You have installed Windows Server 2003 (perhaps, but not confirmed 32-bit) to that VM.
You have allocated 4GB of memory to the VM (we guess ... not sure I'm ready to take your word on this)
You are attempting to install Oracle 11g (presumably 11gR1 32 bit for Windows) in the VM
And the Oracle (installer?) seems to be reporting that you only have 2GB RAM.
Since I personally have installed Oracle 11g 32bit for Windows on Windows 2003 server with 4GB RAM and had no issues, I would be investigating the (unknown) VM environment.

When will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX6.1

Hi all
I'm sorry if I post it in a wrong place... But I really want to know when will Oracle 10g/11g support Windows Server 2008 and AIX 6.1?
I've searched in metalink but found nothing useful. Is there anybody can give me a link of Oracle's roadmap for platform support?
Thanks!

Oracle does not announce release dates and neither
does any other software company.But Oracle does have a very good track record of supporting their products on new windows releases extremely close to the windows release date. Clearly they can't support on an unreleased platform though. Given that the launch of Server 2008 isn't even complete worldwide yet (19th March in the UK for example) it would seem that this enquiry is a little premature.

Oracle 11g on Windows server 2003

If there are forums you would recommend to a completely new oracle sysadmin please let me know.
Many thanks.

I recommend you read the '2 Days DBA' manual in order to get a basic understanding. It may be necessary to uninstall the current installation(s), especially the last error message looks like a corrupted environment.

Oracle client 32/64 bit on Crystal Server 2013 and Windows Server 2012

I'm getting the error "Unknown Database Connector Error" when I run report on the server and it works OK on crystal designer 2013.
Been reading this thread 32&64 bit Oracle Client but not much help there.
Here are the details
System
Windows Server 2012
Crystal Server 2013 SP5
Crystal Server has been installed and appears to work fine. I was able to develop a brand new report locally and saved it to the server and it displays ok. Of course when I click on refresh on the report, it will error out due to database connection it looks like.
We have installed both oracle client drivers 64 and 32. 64 was installed first and then 32.The path has been modified so that the 32 shows up first.
I even ensure oracle_home and oracle_home32 are specified and restarted the server. I still get the same error.
The tns entries are also located in both installs of oracle client...
What might be the issue?

Oracle Database Client 12.1.0.2.0 (32-bit and 64-bit installed)
Installation Type: Custom
COMPONENTS INSTALLED:
SQLPLUS
ORACLE NET
We are currently not using an ODBC connection.
We installed Crystal 2013 Server SP05. This is the sole package installed (believe it's the latest version) without any extra patch package installed (believe no patch needed as it's the latest version).

ODBC connectivity between Oracle 11G and MSSQL Server on Solaris 10

When we were running in 10G, I was able to successfully configure hsodbc using unixODBC and freeTDS to allow for an ODBC connection between Oracle and MSSQL Server.
A few weeks ago we upgraded to 11G and I've been struggling to get the connectivity (dg4odbc) working.
In our 10g environment unixODBC and freeTDS were compiled as 32-bit. I have recompiled them as 64-bit and switched over to an 11G listener and I am getting the following error:

Thank you for your response.
I modified the envs LD_LIBRARY_PATH parameter in my SID_LIST_LISTENERODBC to be:

and bounced the listener, but I'm still getting the same error.
I do not have a lib64 directory in my Freetds installation, but all the files in the lib directory are 64-bit.

Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 (32 bit) on Windows Server 2012 (64 bit)

Hello
Can I install Migrate my database 10.2.0.1 (32 bit) to Windows Server 2012 (64 bit).
I would like to install Oracle 10.2 server (32 bit ) on Windows Server 2012 (64 bit).
Thanks

It is not a supported combination (see the Certification tab in MOS) - so things may or may not work as advertised. Is there a reason to continue to use a desupported version of the database ?

Oracle R12 EBS Forms not getting invoked in Windows server 2003

Hi,
I have installed Oracle EBS R12 in my personal laptop with Win2003 server as base OS. Until all these days I was able to launch the forms and work on EBS without any issues.
Today when I tried to login in and open a form, the system is just not responding. It is not launching the form applet. I checked the Java options and everything remain correct. My internet explorer settings are also proper and no firewall is existing. JRE version installed is 1.6.0_07. I even tried invoking test form from Oracle Forms options, but no form was launched.
The same issue happened a month before and I ended up installing Oracle again. However, I dont want to go to that option and requesting your valuable help to get this fixed.
Java console log is as mentioned below. Kindly check and help me getting this issue fixed.

Asif,
Finally I got the issue fixed. Did not download Java or any JRE version; because, the available version itself was Java 6 and the JRE version was 1.6.0_07.
The issue seems to be that, if the 'JRE Auto-Download' in Java control panel is set to 'Always Auto-Download' then java is trying to use the latest version available in their server. I then changed the setting to point to 'Prompt User' and tried opening a form and it worked!!!
Sounds like a solution to this issue and hope it doesn't recur. Will keep posted if I face any. Thanks for your help!

DO NOT TRY TO CLEANUP OR RE-INSTALL JAVA. TRY THE BELOW BEFORE YOU PERFORM SUCH THINGS.
Step1: Clear all cache and cleanup the history/temp memory in your browsers.
Step2: Close all your browsers (IE, Netscape, Chrome, Mozilla etc).
Step3: Check if your Java version is SE6 and JRE is pointing to version 1.6. You can check this in Java control panel -> General and Java tab respectively.
Step3: Control Panel --> Java (DClick) --> Go to Advanced tab --> expand "JNLP File/MIME Association" and "JRE Auto-Download" --> Select "Prompt User" in both and "Apply"
           In addition to this have the "Debugging" option enabled and "Show console" in the same tab.
Step4: Open IE and login to Oracle Apps. Click on any form. now Java will enable and you will be able to see the console messages. In a few moments(depending on your system speed), the forms should be displayed.
If this doesn't fix the issue, then copy paste the entire console message and post a question in this forum for help. Enjoy your EBS!!

External table in Oracle 10g and Windows server 2003 problem

I'm having a problem accessing an external table in an Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 server environment. The disk is remote (mapped) to the server. It's the usual access errors, kup-04001 or kup-04063.
I have the [seemingly] exact same setup in an Oracle 9i and Windows 2000 server environment which works perfectly. Services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
In the Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 environment, services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the mapped disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
This obviously effects mappings, deployments, etc.
Does anyone know if something changed in either the db or the os?
Thank you,
Michael

Thank you for your reply.
Your proposal is the standard solution. As a matter of fact, that's how it is on my "old" system. Server "A" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM. Server "B" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM and is where the flat files reside. SYSTEM has full permissions on a disk local to Server "B". Database directoriies defined on Server "A" point to Server "B" remote disk. External Tables on Server "A" are defined with directories that point to Server "B" remote (mapped) disk. I have no problems with this configuration.
I'm having a problem acheiving the same configuration with Oracle 10g and Windows 2003. I guess I'm baffled over the fact it isn't working the same way as my "old" environment. Why shouldn't it? Oracle (and you) want me to start services as a specific user. It shouldn't have to be that way unless something changed in the way the database makes calls to the os or if Microsoft slipped something in with one of it's numerous security patches.
