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

user in MySQL). When youve entered a matching password in

both fields, the Install button becomes active. Click the Install button
to proceed.
root

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.
