I had fun at home, I have an old Pentium II with 700M of RAM running Windows 2000 Pro...
Installed 9iR2 -- no problem, I shrank the SGA as low as I dared. The OracleHTTPServer service works OK. Installed iDS9iR2 -- works, provided I stop most of the Oracle services in the services applet. I also only start one component of iDS at a time, as much as possible. I did work on a Designer project on this machine before though and ran into memory problems -- Designer would crash sometimes, or I would click on a utility icon and nothing would show up (not enough memory to start it, I imagine). Installed 9iAS -- Because I wanted Oracle Portal. it installed twelve new services on my machine. My wife at home ended up setting all the Oracle-related services to Startup Manual, and stopped every single one of them because she couldn't use the computer with all these services competing for resources. It seems to be there is a subset of components that reappear in the Oracle Suites -- OracleHTTPServer, TNSService, etc. It would be nice if the Installer was smart enough to detect these and not re-install copies. Or, if we had the option of installing only the components we want -- e.g. Portal, OID, Designer, with nothing else because we know we have the other pieces in other Oracle Homes. Come to think of it... it would be nice to have an "Oracle Home cleanup tool" to remove old Oracle Homes from a host. Or list Oracle Homes that are compatible, and merge them. It would also be nice to have the option of installing the current version of Apache instead of 1.x.

A version what DEMANDS the install of that dinosaur-size, no-brain, unmanageable 9iAS ?? Crap, crap, a pile of crap. *********** REPLY SEPARATOR *********** On 24/01/03 at 09:48 [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >Sounds pretty interesting, IF your in a completely Oracle environment!
