Windows 2000 and Oracle 8i (8.1.6) In stall problem

Hi,
I have installed oracle 8i on a windows 2000 server. I have problem configuring a client machine to access the oracle database using service names.
I configured the service name using net8 assistant. When I try to access the database it gives me a TNS:Protocol Adapter error.(ORa 12560).
I spoke to some dba and they said its windows 2000 problem.
I did not have problems configuring a service name from the same client machine to a oracle database installed on windows NT(service pack 5).
I am able to access the database on windows 2000 through sql plus/other oracle application after I configured a service name using TCP/IP protocol.
I also able to access oracle databases installed on other windows nT machine from the Windows 2000 server client apps.
any suggestions ?
Thanks
shashi

Oracle is a pain in the butt, I'm in the middle of trying to install it too.. I've not come across that error, but it'd take to long to list the other errors I've had too!!
Dya know what order the packages should be installed in??
thanks
Dave

  • Windows 2000 and oracle 7.3 ,8

    I've tryed to install oracle 7.3 and 8 lite in a computer with windows 2000, but both of them just don't work, it keeps giving a problem in memory reference.
    can someone please help me?

    I got problems in installing Oracle 7.3 or Oracle 7.4 in Windows 2000 platform.
    When you spoke about "new version or another version of Oracle Installer", did you refer to an upgrade version of Oracle 7.x or
    to a particular patch or to Oracle8.x?
    Kind regards,
    Monica

    Is there something to do with windows 2003 or corrupted oledb driver or windows service packs.
    Please advice

    Hi amy2ki
    I had the same problem and solved it.
    It seems that this issue is related to security settings on ORACLE_HOME folder.
    You must force Read&Execute rights on ORACLE_HOME folder for "Authenticated Users" and propagate them below.
    Check this note on :
    http://www.google.com/notebook/public/01335025009615452606/BDRwbSwoQnIbT6rQh
    Shortly, the steps are:
    Oracle Client software requires that you give the Authenticated User
    privilege to the Oracle Home by following these steps:
    1. Log on to Windows as a user with Administrator privileges.
    2. Launch Windows Explorer from the Start Menu and and navigate to the
    ORACLE_HOME folder. This is typically...
    - the "Ora92" folder under the "Oracle" folder
    (i.e. D:\Oracle\Ora92) in Oracle9iR2
    or
    - the "Client_1" folder under the "Oracle\product\10.1.0" folder
    (i.e. D:\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Client_1) in Oracle10gR1
    or
    - the "Db_1" folder under the "Oracle\product\10.1.0" folder
    (i.e. D:\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1) in Oracle10gR1
    3. Right-click on the ORACLE_HOME folder and choose the "Properties" option
    from the drop down list. A "Properties" window should appear.
    4. Click on the "Security" tab of the "Properties" window.
    NOTE: If you are running Windows XP and do not have a "Security" tab
    please do the following:
    (a) Open "Folder Options" in your Control Panel.
    (b) Choose the "View" tab.
    (c) Under "Advanced Settings" uncheck the option "Use simple file
    sharing (Recommended)".
    The "Security" tab should now be available.
    5. Click on "Authenticated Users" item in the "Name" list (on Windows XP
    the "Name" list is called "Group or user names").
    6. Uncheck the "Read and Execute" box in the "Permissions" list under the
    "Allow" column (on Windows XP the "Permissions" list is called
    "Permissions for Authenticated Users").
    7. Re-check the "Read and Execute" box under the "Allow" column (this is
    the box you just unchecked).
    8. Click the "Advanced" button and in the "Permission Entries" list make
    sure you see the "Authenticated Users" listed there with:
    Permission = Read & Execute
    Apply To = This folder, subfolders and files
    If this is NOT the case, edit that line and make sure the "Apply onto"
    drop-down box is set to "This folder, subfolders and files". This
    should already be set properly but it is important that you verify this.
    9. Click the "Ok" button until you close out all of the security properties
    windows. The cursor may present the hour glass for a few seconds as it
    applies the permissions you just changed to all subfolders and files.
    10. You must REBOOT YOUR COMPUTER to assure that these changes have taken
    effect. Failure to do this can prevent this procedure from working!
    11. Re-execute the application and it should now work.
    NOTE: If the problem is still present after following steps 1-11 and
    rebooting your computer in step 10 you should perform the following
    two additional permissions settings at step 8 as described below.
    This may be necessary due to permissions that have been configured
    beyond the standard permissions setup when the OS was originally
    installed:
    12. If the problem is still present, go back through these same 11 steps
    above, but when performing step 8 additionally check both boxes entitled
    "Inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child
    objects. Include these with entries explicitly defined here."
    AND
    "Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown
    here that apply to child objects"
    AND be sure to reboot in step 10.
    Hope it helps, it worked perfectly for me.

  • Windows 2000 and ODBC errors

    I received "ODBC call failed" errors with client machines running Windows 2000 and Oracle 7.3.4 or 8.1.5 or 8.1.6, though I have used the same setup procedure with Windows 95 and Windows 98 and those Oracle releases without problems.
    Are there any known problems with Oracle 7.3.4, 8.1.5 or 8.1.6 running on client machines with Windows 2000? If so, are there workarounds for this problem?
    null

    Double-check the 8.1.6 release notes, but I don't believe any of those releases are certified on a Win2000 machine. I believe you need 8.1.7.

    Hi
    is it possible to have User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) and Domain Name with different value?
    Exemple:
    domain name domain1.com
    and User Logon Name (pre-Windows 2000) Domain2\user

    If you have trust in place, then also you can use trusted domain name to login from trustee domain. Also, UPN suffix can be added.

  • Why will a stand alone executalbe with an installer work on windows 2000 and crashes on windows xp professional?

    When I run the setup.exe file on a Windows 2000 system it installs properly, but the same file run on a XP Professional system I get an error stating Fatal Error: Installation ended prematurely because of an error.
    See here for more information on the specific installer I'm trying to use.
    In fact I get this error for any stand alone executable I try to install on any XP machines. I am using LV 7.1. Is there a way to manually install eve
    rything?
    Thanks

    Sure you can Install a lv application manually. just copy the exe-file,
    support files in a folder. For the runtimeengine just copy the file
    lvrte.dll in the folder of your application or in the windows system folder.
    Hope that helps, Niko

  • Hi, anyone can tell me how to open a CD - ROM FOR windows 2000 and XP Version 1.1b Software by Softwire LTD?

    Hi, anyone can tell me how to open a CD - ROM FOR windows 2000 and XP Version 1.1b Software by Softwire LTD?

    Then you will need a copy of XP running in a virtual machine, or possibly bootcamp depending what Mac OS you're currently on.
    Rather expensive way to do it, but if it's Windows software, you need Windows.

    never mind...
    Posts from other threads in this group suggested using VC++'s vcvars.bat for setup.
    That solves the stdio problem, buildclient now works for me.

    Okay Thanks for your reply.
    But what about nal objects? For example Microsoft patches. You don't want Xp
    patches to be rolled out on 2000 machines. So filtering on file existence is
    the only way?? for example C:\windows\explorer.exe for xp and
    C:\winnt\explorer.exe for 2000.

  • Oracle stability on Windows 2000 and Windows 2003

    Hello everyone,
    since the beginning of my career in the database world (5 years ago), I work in a company where the operating system we are using is windows.
    Since the beginning, we are shutting down and restarting every database server (including the OS) on a weekly basis to ensure stability I suppose.
    My question is:
    Is it still a "good practice" to do that (restarting every database server)? On windows 2000? On windows 2003?
    If it is still a "good practice", should it be done on a weekly basis or more on a monthly basis?
    Thank's for any input on this open question.
    Best regards,
    Carl

    I ran a 9i RAC on Win2K3 for over 16 months and only periodic reboots for maintenance (OS patches). I had a scheduled time each month (4 hours) to shutdown, take a cold backup, patch the OS, and get everything back up in time for production. This seemed to work just fine. I would caution not to upgrade all your nodes with the OS patches at the same time, however. Leapfrog them so a single bad patch doesn't kill your entire DB.

  • Oracle8i on Windows 2000 Server - Oracle Instance don't auto start

    I've installed the Oracle 8.1.7 on a Dell Pentium III server running Windows 2000 Server operational system. During the installation the Oracle Instance was started up, but after I reboot the computer, the Oracle Listener service and the Oracle service was started in automatic mode but the Oracle Instance do not started though.
    My Oracle DBA teacher ask me to run Oradim and edit the Oracle configuration startup parameters. I did, but it didn't solve the problem. The values on Windows registry of the ORA_<SID>_AUTOSTART key is "true". The Dba Studio also gets information form the Oracle server and all the fields seems to be correct with auto-start option, but it didn't work out.
    Can someone point me to any text I can read about installation troubles on Windows 2000 Server ?
    Thanks in advance.
    Jayme.

    Hi
    I don't have an 8i db to test on but I think it works the same as on 9i.
