Hi Tom,
A week before i was tried to install oracle 9i on WinNT4(20GB Hard Disk, 128MB RAM). The software has been downloaded from Net.
In my pc, i already have oracle731. I had tried to install oracle9i in another home. I had been installed oracle server sucessfully, but
while creating the DB it failed by throwing our error message "OUT of memory", there is no log, nothing. I cann't able to identify why is was happening.
Even i tried to increase the virtual memory too (I want to know is it helpful if we were in out of memory state?).
Then what i did is, uninstalled Oracle731, and cleared all relavant registry entries, restart the PC, started to install ORa9i.
This time, it has done nicely, no problem nothing. But i was confused why installer refering other versions of oracle to install ora9i, anyway we
are using different home, is't it?...
Ok, ur attachment is in binary format, so it's NOT useful for us. I didn't find any similar type of doc file in ora9i installer CD. Can you post it
in text format, if you don't mind.
Another thing is, "I would go into the registry and remove all traces of Oracle." -- How can do this, do you mean that, just search for
oracle9i or something similar like this and remove from the registery?....
Thanks in advance....
Rgds,
Nirmal.

Dan,
It sounds like the 817 install left some trash around.
If I were you, [Nirmal Kumar Muthu Kumaran] " I would go into the registry and remove all traces of Oracle.
Then, reboot the win2k box and try your install again.
Attached is the "Create a clean machine" document that I obtained a few
years back from an Oracle install disk. I have used it many times, and it
*always* solves install problems on NT for me. The trick is to remove all
traces, and reboot to make sure that all dll's have been purged from the
system.
Hope this helps!

"Database Configuration Assistant"
For that past few weeks, I have not for life of me been able to get
Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 (free download) installed on my Win2k box.
I can install it just fine on the same box inside of a Vmware WinXP Pro
instance, or any other box, but not mine. Mine had Oracle 8.1.7
(Enterprise - not the free download) but I have uninstalled it.
When I install Oracle 9.0.1.1.1 (using "Personal"), it goes fine until
the screen where you select your database (General, Transactions, none,
etc.). (No matter what I select) I click next, and it runs some
calculations, the bar at the top gets to 85% "Database Configuration
Assistant" and then locks up. My only option is to click the x in the
top right and quit the installer.
Since I can install it just fine on a new box, then I know that the
reason this is happening has something to do with the sofwtare I already
have installed. Can anyone recommend a course of action (rather than
nuke-and-repave)? Thanks,
Dan Browning
