Silent install of 6i and 9i oracle products

Hi Folks,
Where I work we have a suite of software that uses oracle 9i and 6i. Because the install has to be done manually for the orcale environment an engineer has to install this program each time some one needs it.
If I can install oracle forms and reports runtime through a silent cmd line installl I can develop an installer and the user can then do this themselves.
Does oracle installers support silent installs and where is the documentation for the commands if it does.
thanks in advance.

It is possible to perform a silent install for the oracle 9i database, in this case next time you perform an interactive install you have to use the -record option when invoking the setup.exe from the command line, this will record the options used during the install in a response file.
In the case of developer 6i as far as I remember it didn't use the oracle universal installer, and if my memory doesn't betray me there was also some sort of batch install facility, not as robust as the one introduced in 9i with the OUI, but useful at least.
For further references on silen install procedure, please refer to these links:

Silent install Air Runtime and Air App with custom installer?

I want to use a custom installer that will perform some actions, and then silently install air runtime and an air application. The goal here is to be able to perform a customized install for an Air application (for a user that might not have Air installed) without confusing the user with multiple install screens. Can I use a custom installer to silently install Air (if the user doesn't have it installed) and the Air app? If so, are there any restrictions on the custom installer? If there are any examples of this, please provide the links.

Since you applied for the distribution from Adobe you should
have received a link to a page where you can download what they
call the "side-car" installer. It's basically an installation
system they are making available to developers that can be easily
configured to deliver a bundled runtime and application
installation for Mac and Windows.
Check your email again and see if you can't find a link in
there pointing you to a download page for the AIR runtime as well
as the aforementioned side-car installer. For those who don't know,
here
is where you can apply for a redistribution permit for AIR.
I have a small tutorial posted that might be of help to you

Command Line Parameters for Silent Install with Status for BI4.0 Products

For the XI3.1 product installations, which clearly leveraged MSIEXEC installation files, it was possible to use the /qb+ command line parameter to trigger a silent install which showed the progress of the installation with a final prompt to acknowledge the completion of the installation.
For the new BI4.0 installation package, it's not clear how to trigger a silent installation which also shows the installation progress. The installation guide describes using -q in the command line to run a silent installation, or leveraging a response.ini file to trigger a silent install, but in neither case does it show how to modify the silent installation command to enable a display of the installation progress.
Does anyone know the syntax, either command line or embedded in a response.ini file, to trigger a silent installation for the BI4.0 products which ALSO shows the progress of the installations?
Thanks,
Josh

Yes, I've tried the same switch that I used for the XI3.1 installations, namely "/qb". In XI3.1 I was able to use this switch either directly in the MSIEXEC command line or in the Response.ini file as "QUIET=/qb". In either case, this switch resulted in a silent install that showed a progress bar window for the installation, completing with a confirmation prompt indicating that the installation had completed.
Neither approach works with the BI4.0 installation packages. My suspicion is that SAP has switched to a different installation engine as I can't find the typical .msi installation files that would indicate this is a MSIEXEC installation. I'm hoping someone knows what type of installation engine is being used and what the switching syntax is for silent installs. But it can't be a completely transparent silent install (I know how to do this); it must provide an option to show an installation progress bar.
Thanks,
Josh

Silent Install w/Admin and Managed Servers

I noticed on versions 11 and 12 of Weblogic, it seems the parameters available for a silent install have been greatly simplified to where it just does a base install. How would I go about getting it to do a silent install with an Admin server and 2 Managed servers? Do I need to do an install and update-install or is there a way I can do all this in 1 shot?
Thanks In Advance
Nic

An example is given here: Middleware Snippets: Automate WebLogic 12.1.2 Deployment.

How to create a silent install without firstlaunch and autoupdate enabled

Its been asked numerous times but I cant find an answer in these forums or via search. I want to create an admin install for Blackberry Desktop Manager 7.1. RIM publishes a guide for creating a silent install but not a useful guide for turning off the autoupdate feature. Their answer, basically, is to regedit the HKCU keys to disable autupdate. However, These keys do not exist until after the user logins and runs the desktop manager for the first time.
How can these keys be incorporated during the initial install? I attempted to create an MST with orca however, contrary to to RIM's silent install guide you can't run the msi directly, rather you have to use the setup.exe to kick off the msi.
Has anyone had any luck creating the mst? What lines in the msi do you edit to create the mst? And finally, how do you run the install with the mst in command line?
Considering that the largest user base for blackberries are enterprise environments RIM really needs to make a more admin friendly install with proper documentation. While our hate does make us stronger, **bleep** off the IT crowd will only further fuels the push to other devices.

The steps you followd seem right, the only thing however that is missing is when you add the channel with provider class name. The channel gets added only for the domain, it does not automatically perculate to all roles and users below if the user has customized his settings. You would have to enable the option Apply changes to all roles and sub roles for the user to inherit this, however if you have made any specific changes for the user that will get over written by the domain values when you select the option apply changes to all roles and sub roles.

Windows 7 64-bit and need to install both 32bit and 64bit Oracle 11g client

Hello
First I am sorry for asking what is probably a common knowledge answer from most in the forum. I just cannot find a straight forward answer searching these forums or via google.
We have Windows 7 64-bit planned as our next desktop upgrade. We have several Oracle databases, and all of the client software in our environment is 32 bit.
I want to try and be ahead of the curve so I want to deploy the latest 64-bit 11g client instead of our current client (10g 32bit).
The simple question is this: Can we actually do that with our 32bit application suite or do I need to install the 32bit client for 32bit applications side-by-side with the 64bit 11g Oracle client for future 64-bit clients?
For a follow up to that, if I do, then does anyone have good instructions on that? I found one article on this but it seemed custom and made use of the mklink command, so I have my doubts this is correct.
Thanks

Thanks for the tip. What I wonder though is should I do that or does the 64-bit client have a 32-bit layer that works with 32-bit applications or, am I forced to still deploy a 32-bit client because of my 32-bit software?
Thanks

JRE 1.4.2_10 Silent install using MSi and JRE 5.0_06

I have been unable to install JRE 1.4.2_10 using the msi and mst silently. My company requires all applications be installed using and msi not an exe. and with no user intervention. I can install using the msi and mst but not silently,.
Also it does not allow me to choose IE as the default browser. I change the setting in the MST for IE, but this does not work, I still have to manually go in and change it after the install.
I have the same issue with version 5.0_06. This does allow me to choose IE as the default browser but does not install silently.
I am installing on Windows 2000 SP4.

Can't help you with the MSI/MST part of your question directly, however we use the following command line:
jre-1_5_0_04-windows-i586-p.exe /s /v" /qn ADDLOCAL=jrecore,extra IEXPLORER=1 REBOOT=ReallySuppress JAVAUPDATE=0 SYSTRAY=0"
You might be able to make IEXPLORER=1 work for you via the MSI?
Additionally, you can manage JRE settings via the following method -
Place a file called 'deployment.config' in the following location:
%SystemRoot%\Sun\Java\Deployment
This file can act as a pointer to a configuration file (aka jre.properties)
The contents of 'deployment.config' would look like (as an example):
deployment.system.config=file://///servername/share/jre.properties
'jre.properties' would then contain this like:
deployment.version=1.5.0
deployment.browser.path=C\:\\Program Files\\Internet Explorer\\iexplore.exe

How to Install emacs, openssh and start oracle database and get a connect?

As suggested by another poster, I installed the prebuilt appliance at [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/community/developer-vm/index.html] and [http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/server-storage/virtualbox/downloads/index.html] with the intent of running oracle database in a linux vm as a guest on windows 7 and connecting to it using JDBC from the windows host.
This is running but I don't know how to install other stuff. I tried "sudo yum install openssh" and "sudo yum install emacs" and "sudo service sshd status" and none of these worked (it could not find these packages). I could not get apt-get or app-get or aptget to work either. I was hoping that "uname -a" would tell me if this was fedora or debian or something else but no luck. What command do I use to learn the distro name?
How do I make ifconfig tell me what the ip address so I can use "scp" and "ssh" to get into the box? Ok, /sbin/ifconfig works and I see there is only a loopback address. Ack! How do I create a socket so I can ssh into this little beastie?
How do I disable the firewall or (better yet) punch holes in it so I get use JDBC and ssh, scp and samba from windows 7?
I tried firing up the SQL Developer 3.1 and getting a test connection with username and password of "oracle" with no luck. How do I get a test connection to work?
How do I determine if the database is running? If not, how do I start it and stop it and restart it?
Thanks
Siegfried

There is no "oracle" account native to the database itself. This is just the default account that owns the application. Log on as oracle/oracle to the OS. (OEL) You can change the passwords of the sys and system account by setting your $ORACLE_HOME and $ORACLE_SID. Default SID is orcl on a database install. Also set a path to the oracle binaries in the form of $ORACLE_HOME/bin.
Then sqlplus / as sysdba
Change passwords of sys and system using the following example.
ALTER USER SYS IDENTIFIED BY [password];
ALTER USER SYSTEM IDENTIFIED BY [password];
The supplied appliance runs oracle enterpirse linux. Not debain or fedora.
Why do you need "emacs"?
I haven't personally load this appliance with Virtual Box but there has to be a readme file somewhere that details all the passwords and etc.

Restart install deleting schemas and not oracle

If I restart my install, and I want to delete the content in oracle (i.e. I want to remove the PCD schema), what is the command string to delete schemas in oracle. I do not want to delete oracle instance just the schemas taht were created during the install. The SAP EP manual refrences the SAP oracle EP manual on how to delete schemas but when you go to the EP Oracle manual there is not section explaining how to delete schemas.
Thanks
John Ryan

You can use drop user "username" cascade;
From SQLPLUS connect as system or sys.
username is schema name.

Silent install and activation of 50x copies of PhotoShop Elements 12 TLP

I am trying to deploy a 50-user TLP licence of PSE12 to 50 PCs without having to visit each PC, as was possible with previous versions.
I have the silent install completing without error but the product is not activated, and needs me to sign in with an Adobe ID on each PC. Even once per PC, this is not acceptable for a network install.
Also I note that end users can Sign Out of the Adobe ID thereby deactivatingthe software for all users of the PC, until I revisit and sign in again. And no, we are not going to give all users the Adobe ID credentials. Even before events of the past week
The PSE12 install logs shows "Override files does not exist . Overwrite the value of Override dir to be a blank string" - it is not finding application.xml.override, even though the file is definitely accessible in the right places and is in UTF-8 format.
(In addition, therefore, updates are not suppressed.)
My hunch is that the application.xml.override mechanism has been removed from PSE12 because of the new Adobe ID sign-in requirement?
I'm aware that AMEE is not application to PSE deployment.
I'd be grateful for assistance on this.
Regards
William

Hello!
I did all required steps, as you mentioned above to serialize Adobe Elements 12, but it was not successfull. I had an return code=14 in oobelib.log.
What I did:
1) Installed "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12" on the machine
2) It has been successfully installed.
3) I opened "Command-line" cmd.exe as administrator (I have an administrative privileges on that machine)
4) Run following command:
adobe_prtk.exe --tool=VolumeSerialize --generate --serial="my_serial_number" --leid="V7{}PhotoshopElements-EMT12-Win-GM" --regsuppress=ss
where my_serial_number is my actually serial number with dashes.
5) After few seconds I got following:

Silent Install of Adobe Lightroom 2

Hello all,
Just wondering if anyone knew the method to silently install lightroom 2 and have the serial # inputed automatically. I know how to do it with cs3 but dont know the method for lightroom. any help is always appreciated

In the corporate environment, the term "silent install" is used to describe a way to install an application without any user interaction and perhaps invisibly, where the options are all specified in command-line parameters and/or via a file that setup is told to look in. This is typically so a network administrator can control the install options and is more normal for applications that use a central server or have standard locations for things.
In a corporate network, it seems that Lightroom would not typically be a standard-install item for every desktop like an e-mail or word-processing application might be, nor is it a client-server application that needs a central server to talk to, so the necessity of a silent install option isn't obvious; although it could be used to control the library location so that it was in a user's home directory to make sure it got backed up.
