Home -> Community -> Mailing Lists -> Oracle-L -> RE: 9i install on Win2K
Mark,
This is from a post on metastink. Let me know if this helps. If it doesn't I can do some more searching for you. I did a search using the error message you are getting.
Dave
RDBMS Version: 9iLite
Operating System and Version: Windows 2000
Error Number (if applicable):
Product (i.e. SQL*Loader, Import, etc.):
Product Version: 9i Lite 5.0
New 9i Lite won't find jrew.exe
Just got the 9i lite from Technet and tried to install it. After I unziped it I tried to start the setup.exe I get the message:
The Java Runtime Environment was not found at bin\jrew.exe. Hence, the Oracle Universal Installer could not be run.
I went to web site and installed JRE 1.1.7 as it said. But no luck.
I noticed in the WIN32 folder there is another setup.exe and a
ORAPARAM.INI file.. In the ORAPARAM.INI the paths were all wrong so I
changed them to :
[Oracle]
DISTRIBUTION=TRUE
SOURCE=../products.jar
LICENSE_LOCATION=
JRE_LOCATION=../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.7.30/1/DataFiles/Expande
d/jre
OUI_LOCATION=../stage/Components/oracle.swd.oui/1.7.1.9.0/1/DataFiles/Expand
ed
And made sure the folders were there. When I start it from here nothing at all happens..
I can run the 8i Oracle Installer with no problems. So I did this and tried to point to 9i's products.jar. But it said it could not write to the file..Even though it's not read only . So I figure some compatability problem...
How can I get the darn thing to install?
Thanks...
Hello Timothey,
This is in the process of being resolved. It was discovered and proven that Olite9i 5.0 must be installed from an Oracle Universal Installer already installed on your machine.
The workaround:
Make sure you already have an Oracle 8.1.6 or 8.1.7 product
installed on the machine. This would preferably be Oracle Server
but the Client install should do.
Install Olite9i 5.0 from the Oracle Universal Installer already installed on your machine.
Note: This problem is appearing only in the downloaded version. As the CD version is yet to be released, it is unknown if this will be an issue when installed from the CD.

Thanks I tried this. And it appeared to work however, the "Mobile Server Repository Wizard" did not appear. I assumed because there is some new feature in the Un. Installer
Without it I am not able to use it...
I would be happy to use Oracle 8i Lite but it is not available anymore at technet and my CD's are a bit old... Is 4.0.0.2.0 a stable version?
Hi Timothy,
4.0.1 is no longer available for download because of the O9i Lite (5.0) availability. If needed, you could still use the 4.0.0.2 but I would make sure to apply the latest patches.
Regards,
Felix

Dave,
I don't have access (I'm only a sales critter, we don't get such "niceties" :P), so if you could get a copy of this I would REALLY appreciate it!
Cheers
Mark (miss your OT posts too! Don't be long! :)

Mark,
You can install on a P4, but you may have to do the workaround on metastink. Let me know if you don't have access to metastink cuz I can send you this work around.
Dave (miss the OT list, hope to be back in a couple of weeks)

Thanks Charlie!
Unfortunatley I don't have access to MegaW@*k, so can't check for anything like this. Do you know if the case is simply:
You CANNOT install 9i on a P4 - at all.. say no more.. full stop..?
Is the a "way around" or not?
Cheers for your help
Mark

I believe this is a "known bug" where OUI does NOT run on a P4. You might want to check MetaStink.
