you installed the Oracle 10g software using "sapserver.cmd" script? If not, environment variables necessary for sapinst are missing and hence sapinst doesn't find the Oracle instance.

if you installed using runinstaller instead of script, uninstall and reinstall using the script.

Hi,

The SApinst will recognize the installed Oracle and also the Java through the environment variables. after installing the oracle you have set the environment variables for the Oracle. One is ORACLE_HOME and the other is ORACLE_SID. Then you click on continue for the installation. Orkun suggested the same.

Hi,

I assume that you installed Oracle RDBMS, without any problem. At this stage I recommend you that check environment variables, such as ORACLE_HOME, PATH.
