hi,

can someone give the EXACT INSTRUCTIONS, for a custom install of Oracle Enterprise Edition 8.1.7.0.0 in order to use SQL Plus *ONLY*.....i use it mainly for PL/SQL statements

Thanx

but why u don't want to install whole Package ?

ronweasley · 10-04-2007, 03:18 PM

its like this........we're learning oracle as a part of the school course where in we learn only SQL statements..and similar stuff...

and......i dnt want to install the complete package because:
1. it took up a lot of space(about 800mb)
2. i have no clue of configuring stuff like net.8, etc....which seemed compulsory.

3.....as a result it shpowed up lots of erors while running sql plus........like TNS Adaptor error, etc........

doubt: can someone suggest a good book for learning oracle and VB6.0 basics???

Thanks

#1 : Hey guy, if u wants to create a DATABASE, then why u think abt space just for installation. If u install more features, u can manipulate data more efficiently.

#2: It's NOT compulsory.

#3: I never came across such errors using SQL *PLUS!!! :-O

& yes, if u have RAM >= 256, then give a try for ORACLE 10g. It's pretty nice.
Even it has browser support !

i meant that whether the queries(eg.. SELECT * FROM EMP; and other queries) and the preloaded tables like EMP, etc....are the same in 10g as they are in oracle 8.1.7.......

also, i wanna know how to cleanup he entire previous installation of oracle, ( i want to install it on a different partition)

yes!!!!

ORACLE 8 / 9 / 9i / 10g Basic Queries are similar. Newer version provides some additional queries also.

& While uninstalling, I follows this process....

Code:

---> Uninstall from Add/Remove programs

---> If can't, stop services like Apache server 'n delete folder with removing Registry entries.

To stop services Start--->Run---> type "msconfig" ---> sevices ---> Disable all ORACLE services.

---> Reboot computer.

I think this may help you.
