Re: Intel Pentium 4, Windows 2000, OUI, symcjit.dll, Oracle 8.1.x installation - How to...

The following is a step by step procedure to successfully installing Oracle Services against an Intel Windows server:  

1- Download JRE 1.2.2_008 from the following link(s):

      http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/old.html  

       or

      http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/jre/download-windows.html    

2- Install JRE 1.2 and extract the "symcjit.dll" file.  

3- copy your entire Oracle 8.1.x CD to your local

   file system (example: d:\OraServ816)  

4- Replace d:\OraServ816\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre

   \1.1.7.xx\1\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll  

   with the new one from (2) step above  

[caution]  

5- Add this to the path environment variable:

    C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.2\bin\classic;  

    such that jvm.dll can be located and run in accordance.  

6- Run the setup utility from the main local media folder

   (example: d:\OraServ816) or d:\OraServ816\install\win32\setup.exe  

This should allow you to install the Universal Installer and the Server Product.  

In order to successfully install other Oracle Products such as the documentation, etc, it would be best to invoke the OUI from you local media versus relying on the installer from product CD.  

Hope this helps anyone with the P4, Win 2K Oracle RDBMS Services installation issues.
