Problem while installing Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1.0)

I think I've gotten past most of it. I'm now at the OUI's Configuration Tools installation window. It's been trying to install the Oracle Database Configuration Assistant for the past half hour. The status for that item says "in progress...", and the Details box below is blank. Also, it has an open console that says "C:\oracle\ora92\bin\sqlplus.exe" in the title bar, and that is also blank.
What's going on?
I'm using Windows XP, have 15GB of free disk space, and 1GB of on-board RAM.
Help please. Thanks.

Nevermind.
I tried clicking stop, and it wouldn't stop. So, I closed the console window. That stopped it with a "failed" status, and the installer immediately finished successfully the remaining two items on the same screen. Afterwards, going back to the first item (the Configuration Assistant) and clicking "Retry" would fail midway through, saying that the service already exists.
So, I opened up a new console window and typed:
oradim -delete -sid <SID>
Then I went back and clicked "Retry" again. This time it completed successfully.
What a piece of @#$&!

  • Oracle Installer Problem while installing Oracle 9i on HP Unix

    Hi Everyone ,
    I had earlier installed 9.2.0.1 on Linux and had no probs whatsoever . When i am trying to install Oracle 9.2.0.1 on HP Unix , the Oracle Installer opens up a window saying CHOOSE JDK HOME DIRECTORY . I have already set the PATH environment variable to point to /opt/java1.4 and /opt/java1.4/jre/bin and also JAVA_HOME to point to /opt/java1.4 . Even after trying to put the directory information it refuses to go thru giving the Error INVALID JDK HOME.PLEASE ENTER CORRECT JDK LOCATION.
    Any replies would be greatly appreciated
    Thanks
    Ravi

    This could be due to you have multiple JDK homes like java1.4 and java1.3. Instead of type JDK home in the windows box, try to browse and select the JDK home and try it. Otherwise, if you have multiple JDK homes, then try to remove one of them.

  • Connectivity Problem while installing Oracle

    I have been trying to install Oracle Personal Edition of 8i on Win 98 PC, after successfull installaion I get a very common Oracle error : ORA-12541 TNS : no listener, when I try to connect to SQL Plus.
    I am unable to resolve it, tips reqd.
    thanx in advance.

    Hi Sanchayan,
    thanx for the reply, I tried what u suggested. But there is no such file on my PC, when I searched I found a file named 'lsnrauto.exe' in the BIN directory, tried started that by double-clicking but it didn't work. So anything else that you can suggest ???

    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Sanchayan Roy Choudhury ([email protected]):
    Hi,
    Check if the OracleTNSListener service is running. If not, open a cmd window and give the command -
    c:> lsnrctl80 (corresponding exe in 8i!)
    lsnrctl80> start
    this will give errors if there are any
    in the listener.ora file.
    Otherwise, check that the entry for the
    database is proper in this file!

  • Relinking problem while installing oracle 9i on solaris 9

    Hello,
    i have big problems installing oracle9i on solaris 9. machine is a sunblade100 64 bit sparc architecture.
    installation went fine until compiling / relinking the binaries. i ignored the messages because i wanted to compile binaries later with the "relink" command.
    After exectuting the command i encountered following message:
    /export/home/oracle9/OraHome1/bin/genclntsh
    ld: fatal: dlopen() of support library (libmakestate.so.1) failed with error: ld.so.1: /usr/ccs/bin/sparcv9/ld: fatal: libmakestate.so.1: open failed: No such file or directory
    my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH is
    /export/home/oracle9/OraHome1/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/ccs/lib:/usr/sadm/lib
    my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 is
    /usr/lib/64
    the file libmakestate.so.1 exists in /usr/bin.
    its 32bit, might that be a problem ?
    well, i also installed the packages
    SUNWbtool, SUNWlibm, SUNWarc, SUNWhea and SUNWsprot, which are necessary for compiling (see installation handbook)
    did you have the same problems? is it only a system path problem?
    please help,
    thanks in advance,
    yours frank

    Hi,
    Yes, You Need the 64-bit version of the libmakestate.so.1 library. This library should exist in the /usr/lib/sparcv9 directory. you Have to installed required Solaris package for this file. The package name is: SUNWsprox Sun WorkShop Bundled 64-bit make library You can check for this package by running the following command: % pkginfo -i SUNWsprox If it is not installed, install it and retry the relink.
    Hope this ll help you.

    Actually that Linux version is not supported for 10g. You may try starting the installer as
    $ ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    BTW, not sure you won't have any problems afterwards, but it should work.

  • Problem while installing Oracle 10g Routing Engine

    I am trying to run the procedure
    exec sdo_router_partition.partition_router('NODE_PART', 1000); on my dataset.
    While executing it gives an error class not found.. and comes out.
    When i look at the database table, i find a lot of tables named
    node_part_1112, node_part_1113, node_part_1114, .... and so on..
    Please suggest..!!
    If i use some other number other than 1000, then it makes the system hang..!!
    Q1) If i have a dataset with 2.5+ lac records in edge table..what is the number which would be appropriate for running the procedure.!!
    Thanks and Regards
    Ashish Dhawan

    The first thing you need to do is be sure the Router's log directory is set up properly and that the right users have permission from both SQL and Java to write to the log file. From SQL execute the following
    select * from all_directories where directory_name='SDO_ROUTER_LOG_DIR';
    Make sure the directory_path that is returned is correct.
    If the directory doesn't exist you can create it with
    CREATE DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir as '<explicit_log_directory>';
    Once created make sure the correct users have privs to write to the directory with the following:
    GRANT read, write ON DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir TO <routeserver_user>;
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('<ROUTESERVER_USER>', 'java.io.FilePermission',
    '/<explicit_log_directory>/*', 'read,write');
    GRANT read, write ON DIRECTORY sdo_router_log_dir TO MDSYS;
    call dbms_java.grant_permission('MDSYS', 'java.io.FilePermission',
    '/<explicit_log_directory>/*', 'read,write');
    Replace <explicit_log_dir> with the full directory path to where the directory was created.
    Note that <explicite_log_dir> on the permission setup for java must be terminated with /*
    as it is above.
    Replace <routeserver_user> with the name of the user that set up and uses the Routeserver data.
    Once this is set up properly try and rerun the partitioning. With the set up you should get access to
    a log file that will give us more information if something goes wrong with the actual partitioning
    process.
