Please help, running oracle 8i on win 2k system

Hello,
I have been trying all day to get oracle working on my system. I am not networked as I am using it only on my win 2k system. everything installed fine, but some of the programs arent even working...i dont understand why it installed successfully if programs arent starting up. (net8 easy config, etc)
also, i am trying to start up SQL Plus and it is asking me for a user/pass/host string. i tried scott/tiger and nothing happened i get an error ORA12560: INS:protocol adapter error
I have used SQL Plus on an installed system before, but this is the first time i am starting everything from scratch.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

check it please whether it is a database version or just you are installing a client. Install Enterprize database on 2k system. I you are running a client software then you are to deinstall it.

  • Can i install/run  oracle 8i in win xp

    can i install/run oracle 8i in windows xp ?

    yes u can install ora 8i in win xp pro
    Windows XP Home Edition
    Oracle 8i is not certified on windows XP. Even if yes, it must be Windows XP Professional.
    You can install Oracle8i on windows XP Home Edition, try like this:
    1 - Copy your Oracle CD into hard disk in your
    machine. For example Copy from oracle8i CD into C:\Oracle\ ...
    2 - Search the two files named Symcjit.dll on the D drive (where you have copied Oracle8i. You can found them in (example):
    C:\Oracle\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1
    \DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll
    3 - Rename this file (Example): symcjit_back.dll (make sure to find two files and rename them)
    4 - Execute the Oracle setup.exe from C:\Oracle\setup.exe
    =================================================================
    When Oracle 8i dies on the install or the installer hangs, here is the fix for this, make sure that you have Service Pack 2 installed.
    1. \JRE\1.3.1\ From Sun. (You can download java program at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html)
    2. Install the java file.
    There is also a problem in the installation disk.
    3. Make a copy of the Oracle 8i disk on the local hard disk.
    4. Do a search for the two files called symcjit.dll and rename them for example: symcjit.old.
    5. Install Oracle from the win32 directory.

    What does dep compliant mean? Are you talking about Data Execution Prevention? I understand win 7 is still in beta or Release Candidate status. It is due to start shipping in only?a few months so if Creative doesn't get on the ball, OEM's will ship with other vendors hardware. My on board Realtek sound works just fine but I would like to use the "upgraded" card I paid good money for. I am using the latest driver from Creative which is for my configuration. Can you please be more specific with your assistance? To answer your queston, yes, device manager shows that Creative drivers are installed. Thank you for your [email protected]

  • Please help ! "Oracle Reports Server CGI - Reports Server name is not specified."

    Hello Gurus,
    I have an html form that allows putting in a parameter. Upon
    submit the form, it'll pass a string URL with the parameter to a
    new browser.
    My url: http://localhost/servlet/oracle.reports.rwcgi.RWServlet?
    diary&14252
    I also used keymap looks like this
    diary: report=Diary.rdf server=servername desformat=pdf
    destype=cache userid=id/psswd@db myoid=%1 %*
    But I get an Error: The requested URL was not found, or cannot
    be served at this time. Oracle Reports Server CGI - Reports
    Server name is not specified.
    However, if I move the cursor to the end of the same url (or put
    a space at the end) and hit Enter, then the report is
    displayed. I guess there must be something wrong with my
    configuration. Please help. I appreciated any inputs from you.
    Thanks in advance.
    Ashley

    I found the solution to my problem. It was nothing to do with
    the cgicmd.dat keymap file, but the html form itself. It's
    confused between the url arguments and form arguments from the
    submit button. So, what I did was open a new window with all
    arguments instead of using the submit function.
    Regards,
    Ashley

  • Please help with Horrible noises on Win 7 64bit install?

    ? I have an X-fi xtrememusic card that came from Dell preinstalled. The card works fine in 32 bit OSes and in 64bit linux but I'm disappointed yet again with this latest driver update that fixes nothing for me. I have terrible noises coming from the channels that do work. It's a 5. channel system. Any help and guidance would be appreciated. I had tried researching and fixing this before but put it on the back burner hoping an updated driver would eventually fix it. Win 7 RC has been out quite a while now and still no fix from Creative so here I am begging for help in a forum. Thanks in advance to anyone willing to help. I have an nvidia video card that is sli ready but I don't have a 2nd card installed, not sure if that info matters.

  • Running Oracle Appn from Win ME client

    My organisation has a software that runs on an Oracle8i database. Both the application and database are sitting on a Win NT server. When we try to activate the application s/w from a Win ME client, the software cannot start at all. Our software vendor told us it is because Oracle is not compatible with Win ME. Is that true?
    Where can I get info on what OS Oracle is certified to run on?

    Koushik,
    there exists a Whitepaper that discusses Reports integration in Forms in great detail. The paper is available at otn.oracle.com/products/forms --> click on All Papers for the Forms release you are on (e.g. Forms 6i, Forms 9i or 10g) and look for the Reports Integration whitepaper.

  • Please Help me : Oracle and LDAP

    Hi !!
    I really need your help, i have a problem and several solutions, and i really don't know how is the best, and the easiest !!!
    I ve got a web application which is provisioning an Oracle database thanks to java servlet and PL/SQL api.
    In addition, now i have to provision an LDAP database. Technically it can be done thanks to JLDAP or JNDI.
    But i need to store these datas in the Oracle database also, to ease backup. And i don't know how to synchronize this part of Oracle and the LDAP part.
    I know that Oracle have made an Oracle internet directory with an LDAP structure.
    Here are the questions :
    - But is it possible to synchronize Oracle internet directory with another LDAP database ?
    - Oracle internet directory must be use necessary with Oracle v9.x (is it possible with Oracle 8.1.6 or 8.1.7) ?
    - Is it possible to synchronise an Oracle database without OID, with an LDAP server ? (this last solution will be the most usefull for me).
    Thanks so much to answer !!!

    Daniele,
    Maybe you can help me on this one. I previously posted on the OID forum but got no response...
    I installed the 9.2 database and the bundled OID on W2K SP2.
    Everything seemed to work OK initally, but after reboot, OID was not accessable.
    If I start the OracleDirectory service manually, everything is OK.
    I suspect that OID is starting before the DB server is fully up, and does not retry.
    Is there a way to get an automatic bootup for OID that works correctly?
    thanks,

    I'm trying to run a java script from the command line on

    Any thoughts why am I getting the message!!
