Errors that may be encountered in installing Oracle on WIN7

Install Oracle, there is always a warning two error error, the description is: OUI-18001: OS ' Windows Vista version 6.1 ' is not supported, find for a long time, finally found the reason, because Oracle does not support the WIN7 operating system.

Before installing, you must first modify the two places in the installation package, respectively:

Modify One: The Oracle installation package searches for refhost.xml files, usually in ... \stage\prereq\client, in the Refhost.xml file, by adding the following code before </CERTIFIED_SYSTEMS>:

<!--Microsoft Windows 7-->

<OPERATING_SYSTEM>

<versionvalue= "6.1"/>

</operating_system>

The modified code is:

<?xml version= ' 1.0 ' encoding= ' windows-1252 '?>

Modified two:

Search for Oraparam.ini files in the ORACLE installation package, usually in \oracle\install

Add the following code to the Oraparam.ini file

#You can customise error message shown forfailure, provide value for Certified_version_failure_message
#Windows =5.0,5.1,5.2,6.0,6.1

#[windows-6.1-required]
#Minimum display colours for OUI to run
min_display_colors=256
#Minimum CPU speed required for OUI
#CPU =300
#[windows-6.1-optional]

These two places have been modified after the installation is really nothing unusual. After installation, start the Oracle Database listening service, the boot Oracleoracletnslistener service can not find the path, because its path is wrong, but can not be directly modified, search the Internet found in the registry, Look for the Oracleoracletnslistener directory under System service, then click on the ImagePath on the right to modify its path to the path of the TNSLSNR.EXE file under the installation path. Then restart the service, there is no problem. Oracle is finally finished installing.
