Oracle universal installer 10.1g oracle aborts on windows 2003

[Former Member]

Hi guys,

The problem I am facing is that during the installation of oracle 10.1g which i need as pre-req for the NW04S installation, I find that the OUI 10.1 g aborts in the very initial phase. I have installed the latest jre 5.0 and provided the java_home . And when I click on sapserver.cmd in the Oracle../NT/I386... path, I get the message,

-

Using paramFile: G:\SAP Netweaver software\SAP-Software\NetWeaver2004s\51031228_1Oracle10.1NTI386\DVD_ORACLE_RDBMS_10.1_NTI386___NTIA64\NT\I386\install\oraparam.ini

Checking installer requirements...

Checking operating system version: must be 4.0, 5.0, 5.1 or 5.2. Actual 5.2

Passed

Checking monitor: must be configured to display at least 256 colors. Actual 4294967296 Passed

All installer requirements met.

Preparing to launch Oracle universal installer from

c:\douments and settings\administrator\localsetting\temp\orainstall2007... Please wait...

After a few seconds the dos screen quits.

Would appreciate any help on how to get over this....

regards, Vikram

You should not install 10.1 (10gR1). This is no longer supported by SAP. You should install 10.2 (10gR2) instead.

Hi

Use the dos prompt to install with this command, 'setup.exe -ignoreSysPrereqs' and also setup.exe -help.

Check note 833766. This is a common issue with the database version itself and its possible to install it.

Subbiah,

I had tried 'setup.exe -ignoreSysPrereqs' before I posted my query. Did not help but what you point out is relevant. 6 to u ...:-) Thanks.

Maurice,

I got oracle 10.2. This installed without glitches. 10 to you.

Thanks.
