Title: Message

granted... but Babette was just trying to install this on her pc and use it for learning... not sure how much support that support would be in her circumstance... and MKS is a little pricey if you are just trying to learn.   April Wells Oracle DBA/Oracle Apps DBA Corporate Systems Amarillo Texas   /\  /   \ /     \ \     /   \/   >\<      \      >\<          \ Few people really enjoy the simple pleasure of flying a kite Adam Wells age 11 -----Original Message----- From: Tanel Poder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 2:50 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: Re: Apps 11.5.8 and 9i Aha, thats a good idea. But Apps loses support probably if you're using cygwin or anything else than MKS. (Btw, I wouldn't call it Unix on windows, it's just a unix toolset runnable on windows).   Tanel.   ----- Original Message ----- From: Nelson, Allan To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 10:34 PM Subject: RE: Apps 11.5.8 and 9i Probably meaning cygwin. -----Original Message----- From: April Wells [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 2:25 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: RE: Apps 11.5.8 and 9i You can fake it out, though, if you get the free version of Unix on Windows... I forget what it is... and just pretend it is MKS.... I understand it doesn't do real deep brand or version checking only does a which to see if that returns with valid information.   April Wells Oracle DBA/Oracle Apps DBA Corporate Systems Amarillo Texas   /\  /   \ /     \ \     /   \/   >\<      \      >\<          \ Few people really enjoy the simple pleasure of flying a kite Adam Wells age 11 -----Original Message----- From: Tanel Poder [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 2:10 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Subject: Re: Apps 11.5.8 and 9i They are required for installation and running 11i successfully on windows. As someone mentioned here, if relinking is needed for example. Also some concurrent jobs interacting with OS might be using MKS. IIRC, you can't even pass prerequisite checking part in installation process if you're missing those.   Tanel.   ----- Original Message ----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Sent: Wednesday, September 24, 2003 9:49 PM Subject: RE: Apps 11.5.8 and 9i My question was not clear. I realize what MKS et al are, but what I really wanted to know is this:  Are these things *required* for the installation of Apps 11.5.8 on Oracle 9i?

MKS makes Windows think it is Unix based.  There is a free version ... similar to MKS but another name... that is supposed to be useable, but I have never used it.  It lets you use all of the Unix commands, and lets cloning and patching work.  Installation also has heartburn if there isn't something somewhere that lets it work unix like in the installation. C++ (NOT .net last I saw... it has compatiblity issues) for the relinking of the products and libraries.  You might not need it for the install (although it gets real bent if it isn't there) but for adrelink, it is a must.  BIG hint here... make the directory name as short as possible in the install (C:\CPP is what ours is).  It keeps the path as short as possible, and there can be no spaces in the path, so don't let anything go into "Program Files" It is totally way easier if you are on a unix based platform... and the concurrent managers (job scheduling) really don't like being on Windows. -----Original Message----- To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Cc: April Wells Sent: 9/23/2003 3:44 PM Importance: High April, please enlighten us ignorant SAP folk. Why are C++ and MKS required?

I would say... $55.93    Oracle Applications 11i Release 9 CD Pack for MS Windows. Do a single tier install and be prepared for one hour install to take the biggest part of a day... A lot has changed since 10.7 all the way around. Oh, and you will need mks toolkit and Visual C++ compiler (not .net though) and java...

Any one know where to get free trial software for Apps? Anyone want to burn me 22 CDs? Just kidding... I haven't work with Financials since 10.7 and feel like I am rapidly losing my financials skills. I want to set this up at home. I figure I would use it for my personal accounting (I know overkill) but I need SOME reason to use it. It looks like I can order this from the Oracle store for a nominal price, however, I need some help in figuring out what to order. Based on the URL: <http://oraclestore.oracle.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=1153 6> http://oraclestore.oracle.com/OA_HTML/ibeCCtpSctDspRte.jsp?section=11536 , Here are the things I think I require:                 Oracle 9i Database (9.2.0.1) CD Pack for MS Windows $0              (downloaded this software previously) $55.93  Oracle Applications 11i Release 9 CD Pack for MS Windows $13.93  Oracle Applications 11i Release 9 Update CD Pack for MS windows And probably one of (but which one?): - Oracle 9i Application Server, Release 2 (9.2.0.1) CD Pack for MS Windows - Oracle 9i Application Server, Version 1.0.2.2.2a CD Pack for MS Windows Does this look right or are there other components I will also need?
