PLSQL 10g on Windows 7 Professional

Hi everyone,
I have installed Oracle Client 10g on Windows 7 Professional, but when I run PLSQL and type all of my user credentials my PLSQL window closes, but if I right click on the icon and choose run as administrator or run this program in compatibility mode works pretty well. Is there a way to make it work without having all these issues?

Hi everyone,
I downloaded the version called Oracle 10g client from the Oracle website and I only choosed the options SQL Plus and Net Configuration Assistant to install, but after I make all the connection requirements to connect to Oracle, when I run SQL Plus Release 10.2.0.1.0 and type username and password it dissapear, but if I open SQL Plus using right click to run as administrator works fine.
I don't understand how come older versions like 8.0 works fine on Windows 7, but the newest don't.

Hi,
you have two option to start your oracle service. your problem is your oracle serivce is not start.
for that you can start manully....
like
on command prompt.
cmd>net start oracleservice<sid>
or
you can set automatic for oracle service.
go services window. start >>>> run >>>> services.msc <<<enter>>>
check and select oracle services and right click and set automatic..
every time your system is reboot then oracle service is automatically is start.

Oracle 10g on Windows XP Professional SP2

I have problem installing oracle 10 g on Windows XP Professional. When the installation goes to "Configuration Assistants", it shows three options, Oracle Net configuration Assistant, Oracle Database Configuration Assistant and iSQL *Plus Configuration Assistant. However, the status of "Oracle Net Configuration Assistant" keep showing "In progress.." for more than 6 hours. It seems the program is not responding, then I stopped the program, uninstall it and tried to install it again but the installation still stopped at "Configuration Assistants". I did the installation/uninstall 3 times already. Could anyone help and provide some solutions?

Thanks Eric Jenkinson for the reply.
I tried the link listed above and I have some troble installing the sample database. Here are some problems.
1) During the"completing database creation process" (About 85% finished), a window pops up and it said please see the following file for details.
C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_1\cfgtoollogs\dbca\sample\emConfig.log
in tnhe log file I see the following in the last few lines

2) Then I tried to enter the Enterprise Manager Database control
by entering http://home:1158/em
However, the URL changed to
http://home:1158/em/console/database/instance/repDown
I opened the portlist.ini and got 1158
Enterprise Manager Console HTTP Port (sample) = 1158
(home is the PC name)
In the web page, it said the following
"Enterprise Manager is not able to connect to the database instance "
Anyone have any idea? Thank you so much.

Error message when installing Oracle 10g on Windows XP Professional

Hello,
I need help installing oracle 10g database. When I attempt to run the installation from the setup.exe icon, I get a message that says
"Error in writing to directory C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\Local Settings\Temp\OraInstall2007-04-29_01-19-29PM. Please ensure this directory is writable and has atleast 45Mb of disk space. Installation cannot continue."
When I try to open the installation from the Autorun icon, it points to an innability to find setup.exe and when I go back to Setup.exe, it gives me the above error. Everytime I try to run the installation and it fails, the installation leaves a folder in my Temp folder with the above format. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

I do have administrative privilege on my computer and I have plenty of space. I have 80gb of free space. What do I do to successfully install the software without incurring those messages I displayed in my first thread?

Oracle installtion on Windows 7 Professional

Hi all,
I just want to install oracle 10g on Windows 7 professional. But i am getting error during OUI installation after clickng on next on first screen there is a pop up message of unknown error
can anyone help me out

Pl post exact version of "10g" and whether Win 7 is 32-bit or 64-bit, along with the complete message from the install log file - the only certified version of "10g" on Win 7 is 10.2.0.5, and the install instructions are here -
32-bit - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b14264/toc.htm#CIHCFAGA
64-bit - http://docs.oracle.com/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b15680/toc.htm#BABEBBJF
Applying the 10.2.0.5 patch set is mandatory - this assumes you have access to the patch on My Oracle Support. If you do not, then you will need to install 11gR2.

Forms 10g Installation issue on windows 7 Professional service pack 1

hi
I am trying to install oracle forms 10g 64 bit windows 7 Professional service pack 1 ..
Below are 2 files that i am using ..
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk1.zip (626,122,752 bytes)
ds_windows_x86_101202_disk2.zip (236,880,881 bytes)
But it failed but the error is ..
Checking operating system version: must be 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 6.1 Failed <<<<
just wondering if there are any workaround ..

Christian is right - Forms 10g R2 (version 10.1.2.0.2) is not certified for installation on Windows 7. You must apply a Forms 10g R2 patch to bring the version to 10.1.2.3.0 for it to be certified. You must have a My Oracle Support account to obtain the patch.
Now, to your question - is there a workaround; the answer is yes. There are known issues with this installer. I'll list them and their workaround.
1. The Oracle installer checks for a specific set of Windows versions rather than check for a minimum Windows version.
Workaround: Right-click the Installer and select Properties. Click the Compatibility tab and click the checkbox: Run this program in compatibility mode for: Windows XP SP3).
2. The Oracle Installer can't detect Windows Managed Virtual Memory (VM).
Workaround: You must temporarily change the Virtual Memory settings and specify specific Initial and Maximum sizes. See this Microsoft article for more information on changing VM settings. http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/change-the-size-of-virtual-memory
This change will require you to restart your computer. After you have successfully installed Oracle Forms 10g, you can restore the original VM settings.
3. The Oracle installer MUST be installed as an "Administrator".
Workaround: Windows 7 uses "Least privileged user" so you must right-click the Installer and select the Compatibility tab. Click the "Run this program as an administrator" checkbox.
4. Not a Oracle installer issue, but you will have to install the 32-bit version of the Oracle Java Runtime Environment (JRE) (1.6.0 - not 1.7.0) because Oracle Forms is a 32-bit application so it will not be able to use the 64-bit JRE.
Run the Oracle installer and it should now install succesfully.

Installation of oracle 10g by window 2000 Server or Window XP professional

Dear all
Did you tried installatin of oracle 10g in Window 2000 Server and/or Window XP professional
installation on which one will be more reliable and stable?
As I am choosing which OS will be better as a Server
please help
Francis SZE

I don't think XP professional would be recommended as server.
would be better if you use 2000 Server or best if you use 2003 if you like windows environment

Cannot get ODBC data source to talk to Oracle 10g for Windows

Problem description
I recently installed Oracle 10g on my laptop computer, which is running Windows 7. Everything went smoothly except for one crucial item: The ODBC data source I added keeps returning this error when I click the "Test Connection" button:
Testing Connection
Unable to connect
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed.
I was using the following ODBC driver
Oracle in OraDb10g_home1 (TNS Service Name = ORCL and User ID = scott)
This type of error happened, in one form or another for the three other Oracle drivers I have on my machine
Microsoft ODBC for Oracle
WinSQL Oracle
WinSQL Oracle Wire Protocol
These services are currently running (status = Started)
OractDBConsoleorcl
OracleMTSRecoveryService
OracleOraDb10g_home1iSQL*Plus
OracleOraDb10g_home1TNSListener
OracleServiceORCL
(NOTE: I entered the foregoing information by hand, since I was not able to copy-and-paste it. So be aware that there is a small possibility of a minor typo in case you plan to cut-and-paste it.)
If requested, I can provide the contents of these files
tnsnames.ora
sqlnet.ora
listener.ora
Other installations on the same computer
ODAC (ADO data provider for Oracle)
SQL Server 2009 Express
.NET 4
Visual Studio 2010
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

OK, I went ahead and upgraded to Windows 7 Professional and I STILL get the same error messages when trying to get the Oracle ODBC driver to talk to Oracle 10g. Here are some screen shots that show what happened:
1) Select ODBC driver: http://yfrog.com/f3driverselectionp
2) Configure driver: http://yfrog.com/ccoracleodbcfororaclep
3) Test connection: http://yfrog.com/1goracleodbcfororacletestp
I also get the following error when I try to run SQL*Plus from the line command, even with no parameters:
C:\Users\Bruce>sqlplus
SP2-1503: Unable to initialize Oracle call interface
SP2-0152: ORACLE may not be functioning properly
Any suggestions as to how I might to go about diagnosing (and fixing) this problem?

Oracle Forms 6i(32-bit) = Oracle database 10g R2 Windows 2008 R2 64-bit)

We have Oracle database 10g R2 installed on a Microsoft Windows 2008 R2 (64-bit) (SERVER1)
We have Oracle Forms 6i (patch 4a) installed on a Microsoft Windows XP Professional (32-bit) (SERVER2)
I am not able to connect from SERVER2 to SERVER1, either through SQLPLUS or FORMS BUILDER.
Its giving some DLL error.
Is it because forms 6i (32-bit) cannot connect to a 64-bit database on a 64-bit OS ?

There might be problems with 8i clients (like forms 6i) if the database uses AL32UTF8 characterset indeed (if you need unicode and you need to run forms 6i use UTF8 instead) but this should not be related to the platform of the database.
The platform of the database server really should not matter as the forms runtime talks via SQL*Net with the database server and in the end it does not matter if the database runs on linux, windows whatsoever or unix 32 or 64 bit for the client. The only problem you'll encounter is that SQL*Net also changes with versions and thus "older" clients might not be able to communicate with "newer" servers and vice versa.

Linux 10g versus Windows XP 10g Issue - ORA-07445: exception encountered

I did a full database export using exp from a 10g Linux database:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Prod
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
"CORE     10.2.0.2.0     Production"
TNS for Linux: Version 10.2.0.2.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.2.0 - ProductionLinux version:
Red Hat Enterprise Linux ES release 4 (Nahant Update 5)I installed Oracle 10g on Windows XP:
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Prod
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
"CORE     10.2.0.1.0     Production"
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - ProductionWindows XP version is:
System:
    Microsoft Windows XP
    Professional
    Version 2002
    Service Pack 3
Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU
6300 @ 1.86GHz
1.86 GHz, 3.25 GM or RAMI performed a full database import after creating the required tablespaces from the 10g database on Linux to Windows.
On the Windows 10g database, I set Maximum SGA size to 1300 MB, and Total SGA size to 1000 MB. I set Aggregate PGA Target to 500 MB.
This Windows box is going to be used by at most 2 developers for a change to our application that is not backward compatible (with respect to the database) with earlier versions of the application that uses the database. I was asked to create this so we could develop this branch without affecting the rest of the development team that are working on other enhancements on the Linux box.
I then ran some packages that refresh the data in a set of tables. This runs through some code that exercises a lot of the database so I could uncover any issues.
At a specific point in the execution of these packages I get the following error:
ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [ACCESS_VIOLATION] [_qkkIsOJKey+299] [PC:0x1E58F73] [ADDR:0x80] [UNABLE_TO_READ] []I read the trace file and isolated it to a single, somewhat complex query. I tore the query apart into smaller queries, trying to isolate what was causing the issue. Whenever the core dump occurred, I was able to recover by simply closing the connection and opening a new connection. In my testing I found the specific query that raises the exception, and a less performing version of that query that does not cause the exception. Please note that this exception has never occurred on the Linux box (nor has it occurred on the beta or production database), and the code has been in place for close to 2 years.
The code that causes the issue:
SELECT UNIQUE
       oc.ogc_case_id AS oc_ogc_case_id,
       ogc.ogc_number AS ogc_number
FROM (SELECT SUBSTR (REPLACE (afd.field_text, '-', '' ), 1, 6 )    AS ogc_number
          FROM ewoc_hw_snap.activity_field_data afd
         WHERE afd.afdcd_activity_field_data_key = (SELECT afdc.activity_field_data_key
                                                      FROM ewoc_hw_snap.activity_field_data_codes afdc
                                                     WHERE afdc.name = 'Case Number'
       ) ogc
LEFT OUTER JOIN lct_snap.ogc_cases oc
        ON oc.ogc_number = ogc.ogc_numberThe code that returns the same data, only slower, and does not raise the exception:
SELECT UNIQUE
       (SELECT oc.ogc_case_id FROM lct_snap.ogc_cases oc WHERE oc.ogc_number = ogc.ogc_number ) AS oc_ogc_case_id,
       ogc.ogc_number AS ogc_number
FROM (SELECT SUBSTR (REPLACE (afd.field_text, '-', '' ), 1, 6 )    AS ogc_number
          FROM ewoc_hw_snap.activity_field_data afd
         WHERE afd.afdcd_activity_field_data_key = (SELECT afdc.activity_field_data_key
                                                      FROM ewoc_hw_snap.activity_field_data_codes afdc
                                                     WHERE afdc.name = 'Case Number'
       ) ogcI executed both queries in SQL Developer version 3.0.04. SQL Developer gives the error message: No more data to read from socket
Any ideas?
The query shown above is as simple as I could pare it down to and still raise and then fix the issue. The fix to the package is not as simple as the second query shown above since there is more than one column of data that I need to return from the lct_snap.ogc_cases table. In any case, I shouldn't have to forgo using the LEFT OUTER JOIN. There must be something wrong with the Windows database. I didn't want to patch the Windows database without first checking on this forum to see if anyone had any less intensive potential solutions.
I searched and found so many posts with the ORA-07445: exception encountered: core dump [ACCESS_VIOLATION] error, that I realize it's a somewhat generic error message.
