I too have experienced similar problems - enough so that I have given up! I haven't been able to get pass the ORACLE7 startup.
After installing WIN32S from the CD, running SQL*DBA and SQL*PLUS gave me something like:
DBA-314 unable to attach to default host. ORA-03121 no interfacce driver connected - function not performed.
I too noticed that the \ORAWIN\RDBMS70\TRACE\BUILD.LOG had reported connect errors. I also got the same errors when I tried to run the INSTALL2.SQL script.
I then installed a newer version of WIN32S (dated 1-Sep-94). This time FREECELL worked - it didn't with the ORACLE WIN32S. I got very ugly errors starting up ORACLE7:
WIN32S Error ORACLE7.EXE WIN32S - Unhandled exception Code 0xC0000005 - ORACLE71.EXE:1CD004 Application will be terminated (this reboots the system)
Replacing QEMM with EMM386 didn't make any difference either. Perhaps my 16 MB of RAM is a factor but the local ORACLE tech assured me that it should at least startup.
Arrgggggg!! I guest that's what the "PRE PRODUCTION EVALUATION COPY" meant and why "This software is unsupported by Oracle" appears on the CD :-( Received on Wed Mar 08 1995 - 05:57:38 CET
