Solution for installing oracle 9i successfully on win XP

I have found this method to be reliable in installing oracle 9i on win XP without giving any problems.Try it out and let me know if it helped you all too.
1. De-install Oracle 9i and any other Oracle products.
2. Clean out your registry, removing all references to any Oracle product.
3. Delete all Oracle folders, including the inventory folder in C:\Program Files.
4. If installing from a CD, wait until the splash screen appears then cancel the installation. Find AUTORUN.EXE on the AUTORUN folder of the installation CD. Right click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the COMPATIBILITY tab. Check "Run this program in compatibility mode for:", then select "Windows NT 4.0 (Service Pack 5)" from the drop down list. Click OK. Do the same for SETUP.EXE.
5. Double click AUTORUN

HP Solutions for Install Errors for HP Officejet 6500

I recently purchased a new laptop with Windows 7 operating system. My printer is 2 years old. Windows 7 located and initially installed the printer. It worked fine at first, but after I changed the black ink cartridge, the printer would no longer print in black. Pages come through, sounds like they are printing, but they are blank or with some color (depending on the document). I have downloaded HP's install of this printer's software (took over 3 hours), seemed fine, but now it's back to no black print. I have tried to reinstall (again), but it gets stuck installing the wireless. HP sent Solutions for install, icon. Suggests disconnecting and shutting printer, modem, and computer down, then using printer install CD and reload. I have the CD, but it doesn't work with Windows 7. What to do?

This article should help resolve your blank pages:

Best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on Windows Server 2008 r2

Dear all,
May I know what is the best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on windows server 2008 r2. Should I create a special account for windows for the oracle database installation? What permission should I grant to the folders where Oracle installed and the database related files located (datafiles, controlfiles, etc.)
Just grant Full for Administrators and System and remove permissions for all others accounts?
Also how should I configure windows firewall to allow client connect to the database.
Thanks for your help.

Howto for install Oracle Client or ODAC for W2k8R2?

Hi all!
I want know if it gives a Oracle Docu for installing Oracle Client or ODAC for Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit. I have a MS SQL 2008 Server and want make a linked Server to an Oracle 10g RAC-Database (10.2.0.4) and want know if i must only install the Oracle Client or did i also need ODAC?? And i have read, that it is better to install by the Client 32bit and 64bit from Oracle Client. So what is the best way to make a linked Oracle-Server on my MS-SQL 2008 on Windows 2008 R2? Hope someone have a positiv answer. Thx

Hi,
No, you don't need to download the Grid Client infraestructure file. That's a tool to install on servers.
The problem is that you are downloading a version of 11.2 in 64 bits, and 11.1 in 32 bits. So maybe they hay changed something between 11.1 and 11.2 that you dislike.
You could download the 64bit version of 11.1 client, but however, you can manually create a tnsnames.ora if you want. You could use netca for that purpose.

Laptop config for installing oracle apps

Hi All,
what could be the best config and brand for installing oracle apps in laptop for learning purpose? Will oracle apps supports Windows Vista as most of the current laptops has Vista as the default OS?
I have tried installing oracle apps in desktop and not in laptop yet.I found in the net the below steps is one of the ways to install oracle apps in laptop.
1.Install VMware on windows OS (Virtual Machine)
2.Install enterprise linux
3.Install oracle apps
Pls let me know if anyone have installled oracle apps in laptop.
Thanks in advance
kumar

Hi Kumar,
Yes, for learning Vista/VMWare/OEL/Apps would work, but note VMWare not supported on Vista but it does run (boot using Disable Driver Signing) and you might find Linux VMs take 20-30mins or so to start the first time after host boot. Also I'd turn off the Vista frilly bits!
Specs - get something recent, the better hardware the faster it runs! For Vista and R12 on VMWare I'd say you'd want 4GB memory, fast dual core CPU and tons of disk. Also you'll want Vista 64 to get the best out of the memory (and if you want more than 4Gb). Some laptop brands come with options for different OS's like images on DVD or hidden on the harddisk that you can easily reinstall.
PS. Laptops are like desktop's these days, not a huge difference in specs...
PPS. If you want a less painful option try to downgrade to Windows XP (watch memory limits), still lots of hassles with Vista.
PPPS. I'd go for OpenSuse (Suse clone) or Centos (RedHat clone) over OEL for learning machine due to no subscription for updates, etc.
Drop me an email if you want.

Gareth

Pre installers for installing Oracle Utilities Application Framework V4.0.2

is there any pre installers for installing Oracle Utilities Application Framework V4.0.2 for Meter Data Management V2.0.0 Multiplatform??
reply me asap.
regards
vijaya

It would help if you provided osme basic information like what version you are installing, what operating system, 32 bit or 64 bit. We may like to help but we are not mind readers.
If you happen to be installing one of the latest versions of the framework (CC&B FW 2.2 SP 8) there is an issue.
You may have to start off with hibernate 3.2.5 then run the framework installation.
This may not do a full install but you may find that only 1 or patches have not been installed and the issue is that these require hibernate 3.2.7
So go back and install the hibernate 3.2.7 and change the environment variables to point to the new version.
Re-run the framework installer.
You may get errors in that the patches that did not previously install properly cannot be installed.
This is because they have entries in the etc/installed_fixes.txt file.
edit the etc/installed_fixes.txt file and delete the patches that will not install.
re-run the installer now and the rest of the patches should now install
The 2 offending patches may be 9384543 and 9080333.

Steps to follow for Installing Oracle SOA 11g in 64 bit Windows 7 machine

Hi,
I have successfully installed Oracle SOA 11g components in Windows 32 bit machine by following the downloading the installers for Windows 32 bit and following the steps mentioned in the Quick Start Guide for SOA Suite and BPM Suite.
Now I am trying to install Oracle SOA components in Windows 7 64 bit machine.Are the installation steps I followed for 32 bit is applicable for 64 bit too?Or are there any difference?
In the download section of installers,I could see one for 32 bit, linux and generic.Can you guide me which one I need to download for 64 bit machine?
Thanks in advance.

I followed for 32 bit is applicable for 64 bit too?Or are there any difference?Steps followed for 32 bit installation would be same as for 64 bit. The only difference would be 64 bit JDK as it's required for win 7 to run the installation binaries of SOA Suite.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/java-se-jdk-7-download-432154.html
I could see one for 32 bit, linux and generic.Can you guide me which one I need to download for 64 bit machine? You can use even 32 bit installer for 64 bit machine ( it works like charm for DEV like environment)...
but as per Oracle doc they prefer to use generic installer.

I recently purchased An Oracle Database Enterprise Edition � Trial License.
I am attempting to install Oracle 9i on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Advanced Server 3 (RHEL AS 3).
After several unsuccessful attempts and consultation with the FAQs available on the Oracle site I have discovered
that it can not be installed without the following patches.
P3095277_9204_LINUX.zip
P3238244_9204_LINUX.zip
P2617419_210_GENERIC.zip

Can anyone tell me how I can aquire these patches?
This is for an eval of the product on the platform mentioned above. If I can not complete a successful install,
there is no way for my company to evaluate the product
and eventually purchase it.
You can contact me at this email address [email protected]

Actually i installed TOAD for oracle v9.5 on laptop with Windows 7 ultimate
it gives 'Cannot find OCI DLL: oci.dll'. It seems TOAD for Oracle is a 32-bit only app, which means that it requires a 32-bit Client.
You might also want to stay away from installing Toad under "Program files (x86)".
Consider taking a look at Oracle SQL Developer - a very good alternative to the toad.

Needed steps for installing oracle 10R2 on windows server 2003

Hi to All,
Can anybody give me steps for how to install oracle 10R2 on windows 2003 server in production environment and what is the preinstallation task and postinstallation task.
Thanks and Regards
Mohd Khaja

There is one pre-requisite that is missing from the documentation - ensuring that the administration team is adequately trained.
Since you are asking this question, I wonder whether your team is properly prepared for, and aware of, the possible nuances or changes from default that might be relevant to your environment.
For example, is your team familiar with the concept of Flashback Recovery Area and how it may fit, or conflict with, your production needs? Use of RMAN? Location of Oracle software Inventory and implications in your OS-level backup? How to configure both the software and the database to meet your Service Level Agreement requirements.
The referenced document is an excellent first step, as it asks some of the questions. If you are serious about production stability, you want to go through that as well as get appropriate level of expertise in your shop.
