Step 4: Installing and Configuring Oracle

To install Oracle 11g on any Windows Platform You have to follow the following steps. The only catch was that the Oracle 11g (11.1.0.7) installer

validates only against Windows 5.0, 5.1, 5.2 or 6.0. Windows 7 is actually

Windows Code Base 6.1, as seen in this screen shot after successful installation:

1. Click on the setup icon to launch the installer. You should then see the following screen shot. Enter a password for the SYS and SYSTEM users

(if youre coming to Oracle from a MySQL background theyre like the

root user in MySQL). When youve entered a matching password in both fields, the Install button becomes active. Click the Install button to proceed.

Once Set up Start.

You need to enter your email id. if you require updated from Oracle

2. In this screen, youre prompted for your Email and MetaLink Password. If this is a test database (a throw away instance without any real

data), you can uncheck the box for automatic security updates. You should enter a password even for test databases. Click the Next button

to proceed.

Select Configure and Database Option (First Option) Press Next Button

Select Desktop class Option Press Next.

This Will be the next window appear on your screen

3. Youll only see this failure if youre installing Oracle 11g (11.1.0.7) on a Windows 7 operating system, which is actually version 6.1 according to their code control numbering. You simply check the Checking

operating system requirements and Checking service pack requirements to override the prerequisite checks. Another error that you may encounter is related to networking. It is a warning and occurs when youre operating system uses DHCP to get its IP address. You really should configure the operating system with a static IP address. You can set a static IP address in Windows 7 with these instructions.

The checked boxes now say User Verified, Click the Next button to proceed.

4. At this point, youll get a Windows System Alert asking you to unblock the installers javaw.exe program. You must grant the access or forget about installing Oracle 11g. Click the Allow access button to proceed.

5. The dialog tells you what will be installed. Click the Install button to

proceed.

6. This is the installation progress dialog. Its running while the Oracle Installer lays down the operating system files for the database management system. It takes about 8 to 9 minutes, so stretch your

legs if you want to take a break. When its 100% complete, click the Next button to continue.

7. After the installation, youll see the first of the Configuration Assistants, which is the Oracle Net Configuration Assistant (unfortunately, I didnt capture that screen shot but I provided a temporary substitute until I re-install it). Provided everything happens successfully, itll move to the next step without your intervention.

You should receive another Windows Security Alert (arent we glad that I already disabled UAC). You need to click the Allow access button to let java.exe proceed with the installation.

8. This one is exactly where it belongs. It means you have approximately

a 5 to 6 minute break while a sample database instance is cloned for you. The cloning process copies a sample compressed database from

the installation staging area to your local operating system.

It will prompt you if you want to open any of the other scheme. You can skip

this and do it later, or click Password Management to open those scheme and set passwords for them.

Click On Password Management to set UP User name and password

User name as Scott. You will find in Password Management window, please unlock it and set password as tiger

9. The last Configuration Assistant is the Oracle Configuration Manager

Configuration. Its a short process, it configures the cloned sample database against your installation names and passwords. When it

completes it enables the Next button. Click the Next button to complete the installation.

10. Youve finally reached almost the end of the installation. Click the Exit button on this dialog to proceed to the are you sure dialog box.

Confirm you meant it, by clicking the Yes button on the final dialog message

below.

Youve successfully installed Oracle 11g on Windows 7.
