Hi! you will be able to install EBS 11i on Windows XP/ Windows 2003 Server, if you just
follow these instructions else you should not get into it.
Very Important.
Make sure there is no oracle product installed on your system. No entry of oracle should be in
windows registry except system default by windows itself. So it is recommended to use fresh
system for this purpose. If you tried a failed installation before on your PC then reinstall the OS
(Win XP) again otherwise you will waste your time.
There should be !!!!NO!!! JDK installed on your machine. EBS 11i will install JDK version on
your machine otherwise you will get errors I don’t want to discuss all this here. Just NOOOO
JDK on your machine.
