Oracle 8.1.7 R 3 for W2K Sever on P4 Xeon Processor - problems?

2002-10-22 Thread Saira Somani
I wonder if anyone could provide me with some insight on a problem our
Sr. DBA is facing.

We are trying to install Oracle 8.1.7 SE Release 3 on Win2K Server but
our DBA believes that the problem lies with the hardware - a P4 Xeon
processor. 

Has anyone else faced similar issues?

Thanks,

There's a known problem installing Oracle 8.1.x for Windows on a Pentium
4.  If you are using a version of the OUI lower than 1.7.1.9.0, you will
get it.  Try patch 1507768.

Hello Saira,
we have faced the same Problem and get the following solution:

Solution 1:

1. Obtain patch number 1507768 from Metalink
2. unzip the  patch
3. unjar the contents
4. Go to the directory
.\cd\Disk1\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30/1\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\
win32\bin\symcjit.dll rename symcjit.dll to  symcjit.dll.ori
5. Invoke OUI and install OUI to disk
cd ./cd/Disk1/stage/win32/setup.exe
6. Use the  installed OUI to install the RDBMS
7. Invoke OUI from the  start menu, and install RDBMS software.


Solution 2:

1.  Create a temporary directory on your server.
2. Copy the contents  of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD to the temporary
directory created in  step 1.
3. Search the directory structure created in step 1 for  the existence of
the filename symcjit.dll.
4. Rename each copy  of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.
5. Run the setup.exe from the  \install\win32 directory and install
Oracle 8.1.x.

Re: Oracle 8.1.7 R 3 for W2K Sever on P4 Xeon Processor - problems?

2002-10-22 Thread Yechiel Adar
Known problem with P4 is the Java jit.
Copy the installation CD to disk, rename symcjit.dll to symcjit.old and try
again.
If still not working modify oraparm.ini (in the install directory) to:
jre_memory_options=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m.

Worked for me.
