Upgrade from Oracle 8i in Win98 to Oracle 11g in Window Vista

Hi,
I have an existing system that runs in Window98 using Oracle 8i as database. We are planning to convert the system from using Oracle 8i to 11g, and this new converted system will be running in Window Vista.
What I have in mind is doing export and import from Oracle 8i to 11g, but it is quite troublesome. Is there anyway I can upgrade the db to 11g in Window Vista?

Hi,
When upgrading from 8i to 11g, you cannot perform direct upgrade anyway.
If you want to upgrade (not using exp/imp), you can install 9i (9.2.0.4 and up) on the win98 machine, and upgrade the database to 9i.
Then you can take the database files, copy them (like cold backup) to the vista server, and you will able to upgrade it to 11g.
Note that you cannot use the DBUA in this scenario, you will have to upgrade it manually.

  • Istalling oracle 11g on windows vista

    Hi,
    i need to install oracle 11g on windows vista, unfortunately i cannot able do to that, becase after double cliking on the setup a messege like this one came out:
    OUI-10151: There was an error while loading library.generalQueries. Stop installation of all products, Stop installation on this component.
    I've found on internet some work around of this problem BUT only on linux machine, no one as telling me some way to fix my problem on windows vista.
    I also tried using oui to deinstall any previews installed version but oiu tell me that there's not any installation of oracle.
    any suggest is really appreciate
    regards
    Francesco

    By 11g I am assuming you mean 11.1.0.6 (11gR1). Pl post which Vista version you are using - 11gR1 is certified to be installed only on Business, Enterprise, and Ultimate editions.

  • How to Install Oracle 11g on Windows Vista

    Hi Everyone, this is Abhinay here i am a Graduate Student from Electronics and i am planning to shift to CS background the main thing i want to know from you guys is " A structured procedure of Installing Oracle 10g on Windows Vista"- So can any one of you guys help me out??????????

    Hi, how are you doing ?
    Just one advice about it. If you want to work with Oracle databases, it will be better to install it on certified OS's. Doing so, you will get better experience and more realistic experience on it.
    Following the Oracle database documentation, you will get all that you need to successfully install the database in the certified OS.

  • After upgradation from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g,one proc is throwing error

    recently upgraded from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g. We have some Oracle procedures which are not working in Oracle 10g.
    A section of code from one of the procedures looks somewhat like the code below:
    Declare
    Cursor c_matched_records (…..) is
    Select a.field 1, b.field2
    From table1 a, table2 b
    Where a.field3=b.field1
    FOR UPDATE;
    BEGIN
    For records in c_matched_records
    LOOP
    -- Continue processing
    -- Update records
    COMMIT;
    END LOOP;
    END;This section of the code throws out the following error in Oracle 10g
    ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence during PUT outputFile file
    However this code was working fine in Oracle 9i.
    please help me with this?
    Thanks

    I believe you are lucky that the pl/sql is okay in Oracle 9i. How about remove the commit statement? Why do you need it in the loop. I look up metalink. You may refer to article ID 257914.1

  • Upgrade from oracle 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.2

    We have a need to test the upgrade from oracle 10.2.0.4 to 11.2.0.2. For the 10.2.0.4 DB, we are not using RMAN for back-up. We are using manual file back-up of data files, archives etc.,
    The OS is Suse 10 Linux or HP-UX 11.
    If we want to use RMAN on the 11.2.0.2 DB, do we need to take any extra steps for RMAN before upgrade / after upgrade? Any relevant advice is welcome. thanks.

    1. Take all datafiles backup with current controlfile.
    2. Take all the archive logs backup before up gradation start.
    3. If possible take a cold backup as well.

  • Upgrade from oracle 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4 Server or Clients first?

    Hello,
    I'm planning to Upgrade from oracle 10.2.0.3 to 10.2.0.4 on Windows
    Server and Clients ar running now on 10.2.0.3.
    I cannot Upgrade both at the same time.
    What is recommend to upgrade first? Server or Clients?
    Thank you!
    stepe

    Hi,
    No matter the order the client / server compatibility is not so strict. Check MOS note 207303.1
    You can connect with a 10.2.0.3 client on a 10.2.0.4 database or with a 10.2.0.4 client on a 10.2.0.3 database. In fact you could even connect with a 9.2.0.8 client if it was still supported.
    As Ollear mentioned you client application needs of course to be tested but it should work fine.
    Notice the 10.2.0.5 patchset has been released.
    Best regards
    Phil

  • Upgrading from Oracle 10G standard edition to Oracle 10G enterprise edition

    Hi
    I want to upgrade from Oracle 10G standard edition to Oracle 10G enterprise edition. Is there any script provided by oracle which I can run on existing Oracle 10G standard edition to upgrade to enterprise edition after completing the licensing formalities or do I need to install Oracle 10g Enterprise edition from scratch and then migrate my data.
    Ramanbir S

    You will not need to perform any data migration to upgrade to EE. The diffetence between standard en enerprise editions are the features offered. When you upgrade you can use the same set of files you used to install standard edition and just add the enterprise edition features you want to use in the 'Custom' section of the Universal Installer.

  • Upgrade from Oracle 9.2 to 11.2

    Hi
    I want to do a upgrade from oracle 9.2 to oracle 11.2 (Step by Step procedure).
    Please kindly share simple procedure for upgrade and checks need to me done post upgrade.
    if possible scripts for post upgrade.
    Jass

    You have basically two ways how to do this. The first method is to upgrade the database either manually or using Database Upgrade Assistant. You have to be on the last 9.2. patchset or have to upgrade to the last patchset first. This method was suggested by Srini and you should really read those documents, that he suggested, before you will proceed with this.
    The other method is to simply create a new empty 11.2 database and then transfer data using exp/imp utility. This method can be used no matter what version you are on and it is usually rather straightforward process with very few problems to deal with. However, it is time consuming as all data has to be exported and imported, which might not be possible if your database is big and your outage window too short. There are ways how to shorten the outage significantly when using this method, but that would be for longer talk.
    You will also need more disk space, preferably enough that you will be able to fit both databases (old 9.2 and new 11.2) concurrently.

    Here you can tell your admin:
    After logon Metalink, click on "Patches" at the left side -> Click on the 3rd link (Quick Links to the Latest Patchsets, Mini Packs, and Maintenance Packs) -> Move your mouse over "Oracle Database", then a blue box shows up -> Select a platform(example: Microsoft Windows 32-bit) -> click on 9.2.0.4 (or 9.2.0.5) -> Click on Patch number at the lower part then you can download it.
    After the patch installed, you will see the release number from your SQL*Plus session.

    AnupDirect upgrade from 10.x to 12.1.x is not possible.
    You have two options here:
    Option 1) Upgrade to 11i then to 12.1.x

    Option 2) Re-Implementation (install R12 then re-implement)

    Hi,
    What is your current 9i version (last 3 digits) and what is your OS?
    To upgrade to 11gR2 from 9i, the 9i version must be minimum 9.2.0.8
