Will Personal Edition for Windows 98 work on Windows ME?

Am I out of luck or will the Win98 version work on WinME?
Thanks.

Oracle hasn't done any testing on Windows ME as far as I know. You could give it a try, but I doubt Oracle will help you if you have problems, even if you have a Support contract.
For the official word, see the Certification Matrix on Metalink.

  • Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/

    Hi,
    Ive just been trying to download your Oracle9i Database Release Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP for my home computer, but it wont even download properly. The Disk 1 file, "92010NT_Disk1.zip", intializes, and downloads in less than a second, saying all 67.7kb is complete, taking into consideration the file is over 600mb big. When i open the *.zip file, its absolutely empty. I tried the links for Disk 2 and Disk 3, and they are working perfectley.
    Whats going on?
    Is there a bug on my side, or OTN's?
    Will this be fixed soon?
    Or should i download an older version?
    A little feed back would be grately appreciated, due to the fact i cant find the latest version of Oracle anywhere else on the World Wide Web.
    Thank you for your time.
    - File: 92010NT_Disk1.zip
    - Date/Time: 03/09/02 11:30PM
    - Internet Browser: IE 6.0.2600.0000
    - O/S: Windows 2000
    PS: Your "Preview" Button didnt seem to work for me either.

    Hi Peter,
    I downloaded the same zip files as you did for my home pc. The first zip file was not able to be unzipped by winzip. So I had to download the fisrt zip file again from OTN and the second time it was fine. I got all three zip files extracted and ran the setup.exe. Everything was fine till this point.
    My problem is that Oracle 9i release 2 personal edition is not for XP home edition. I couldn't get the database correctly configured.

  • Oracle 9i Personal Edition for Windows 98

    I am having problems installing Oracle 9i Personal Edition for Windows 98. The install is hanging at the same place every time.
    The installer works fine, but at the end of the install, when the Oracle Configuration Assistant tries to create the new database, the system "hangs". On a Gateway PC, there were fatal exceptions about VxD and vVMM. I finally had to power down the PC. I tried again and got the same error.
    On a Compaq PC, when the Configuration Assistant started, it tried to access my floppy drive and opened a console window with "Abort, Retry, Fail". I chose "Abort" and the configuration continued, but the system hung when trying to start the Oracle instance.
    I am evaluating different software packages and need to install Oracle in order to test them.
    Thanks for your help.

    if you go to iSelfSchooling.com, you will find Oracle Installation Issues on Windows. It gives a list of "default usernames and passwords" and also states that you can leave the HOST name blank to get at the starter database.

  • Will the New iTunes 11 for Windows work on Windows 98???

    Will the New iTunes 11 for Windows work on Windows 98???
    A. True.
    B. False.

    My opinion is no. Apple has no plans updating version 11 to meet the needs of Windows 98 being that #1 - Windows is pushing forward with their Windows 8 operating system launching in a week and iTunes 11 would have needed to be re-written from scratch to accomodate the Windows 7 and Windows 8 systems. It is a known issue that iTunes is bloated and most Windows users will use other media players to manage their music rather than iTunes. #2, Windows 98 is so old that even Windows does not recommend anyone using anything past XP as you are exposing your PC to viruses or anything that no longer can be patched. I highly recommend upgrading to atleast to Windows 7 and this is of course if your PC matches the bare minimum of hardware to use iTunes 10.7 and 11. You are actually doing more harm than good by using an outdated OS.

    Win98 was released in the late 97/98 and the Oracle version then was 7 and the then brand new 8i version. Cannot recall ever seeing 9i for Win98. Do recall running PO 7 on Win95 and Win98.

  • Windows 8 FAQ: Will my HP Touch applications work on Windows 8?

    Question:
    Will my HP Touch applications work on Windows 8?
    Answer:
    Touch functionality will be determined on a case by case basis through the MS compatibility check during windows 8 upgrade and in the HP step by step upgrade document accessible through the HP Windows Upgrade site.
    For Touchsmart PCs, during upgrade the MS compatibility checker will alert the user on which software components must be uninstalled or updated prior to continuing the Windows 8 upgrade.  For Touchsmart PCs that require the removal of the Touchsmart interface or HP Magic Canvas, that application and all applications that require that environment installation will have to be removed for continued upgrade and correct functionality.

  • Cant Load personal edition 8.1.5 on Windows ME

    Is there a way out to install Oracle personal edition 8.1.5 on Windows ME. Is it true one can't install personal edition on Win ME. If any one had sucess, I would be glad to hear how. Thanks
    Adiseshu

    Oracle doesn't support Windows ME at the moment.
    If you visit some of the Oracle newsgroups, there are folks that have figured out how to install Oracle on a Windows ME box. This would be an unsupported configuration, however.

    Will Oracle personal 9i for Win98 work on XP or is there going to be a specialist XP version released?

    Are you getting the complete file when downloading? i.e. the filesize on your disk matches the size listed on OTN.

  • Error installing Oracle 9i Database Enterprise/personal edition for win xp

    Hi,
    Not sure if anyone can help me, but I just finish downloading the
    Oracle Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for Windows NT/2000/XP (32 bit)
    When I finished unzipping the 3 files into Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3 folders I tried running the setup.exe file but nothing happens.
    I am using windows XP as my operating system. Can anyone tell me why the setup is not working?
    Thank you.

    XP Professional, or XP Home?
    There are a lot of cases where people have tried and failed to install on XP Home. Also a few successes.
    Also, how is your firewall and anti-virus software configured. Those may be blocking your install process.

  • Oracle 8i Personal Edition for windows 98

    I have received the personal edition from
    Oracle.
    I did the installation which completed without errors.
    Then, I went to start up the database. The
    database started, but would not mount.
    The error that I got was...
    Ora-00202: controlfile:
    'c:\oracle\ORADATA\orcl\control01.ctl'
    ora-27041: unable to open file

    o/s-error:(OS 3) The system cannot find the path specified.
    ora-205 signaled during: Alter database mount exclusive...
    archiving is disabled.
    What I discovered was that the control file
    it was looking for control01.ctl
    was not on the cd.
    Any idea how to get rid of this problem??
    If I need this control file, what is it for
    and where would I get it??
    Thanks for your help...

    Hi,
    I figured it out.
    For some reason, when I installed the "typical" install, it failed.
    But, when I did the Database install only,
    which installed the database properly, then
    did the "typical" install which installed the
    additional stuff (sqlplus, etc.), it worked.
    Thanks for your help, though.
    Please see my other problem regarding using
    the developer tools.
