Hi,

I copied the entire CD to disk (so that I can always install additional features as needed) and installed using the 9.0.1 installer w/o problems on W2K

off the top of my head:

If you have a Pentium 4 there are issues to resolve with the java environment and one of them was to
copy the entire cd to disk rename symcjit.dll to symcjit.old and start using the installation from the install win32 directory. I renamed the files and used the 9i installer instead and that worked also

Hi everybody

I'm about to throw my laptop out of the window (I'm on Win2k). I have an existing 9.0.1 installation (server and developer tools like designer and jedevelop). That works. Now I need to install an additional 8.1.7. If I run the installer from 8.1.7, it tells me that the component oracle.swd.jre 1.1.8.10.0 is missing while checking the dependencies (after you decide the installation type, before the list of available products/options is displayed). Checking the components in the stage directory, it shows that it is really missing.
Next try was to install 8.1.7 using the 9.0.1 installer. Installation works, but hangs at the end ... great. Next try was to take the oracle.swd.jre 1.1.8.10.0 component from 9.0.1 (where it exists) and copy it to the 8.1.7 stage and to create the property files. No success. Any ideas, or do I have to remove everything, then install 8.1.7 first, folowed by 9.0.1 and the developer tools. That would be very diappointing.

Regards,
Stefan
