To ensure that the system meets these requirements, follow these steps:
Determine the physical RAM size. For a computer using Windows 2003, for example, open System in the Windows Control Panel and select the General tab. If the size of the physical RAM installed in the system is less than the required size, then you must install more memory before continuing.
Determine the size of the configured virtual memory (also known as paging file size). For a computer using Windows 2003, for example, open System in the Control Panel, select the Advanced tab, and click Settings in the Performance section. Then select the Advanced tab. The virtual memory is listed in the Virtual Memory section.
If necessary, see your operating system documentation for information about how to configure additional virtual memory.
Determine the amount of free disk space on the system. For a computer using Windows 2003, for example, open My Computer, right-click the drive where the Oracle software is to be installed, and choose Properties.
Determine the amount of disk space available in the temp directory. This is equivalent to the total amount of free disk space, minus what will be needed for the Oracle software to be installed.
If there is less than 125 MB of disk space available in the temp directory, then first delete all unnecessary files. If the temp disk space is still less than 125 MB, then set the TEMP or TMP environment variable to point to a different hard drive. For a computer using Windows 2003, for example, open System in the Control Panel, select the Advanced tab, and click Environment Variables.
Table 3 lists the software requirements for Oracle Database.

The subsequent windows that appear, which are listed in Table 4, depend on the installation method you have chosen. The order in which the windows appear depends on the options you select.
Follow these guidelines to complete the installation:
Do not install Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2) software into an existing Oracle home that contains Oracle9i or earlier software.
If you install Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2) in an Oracle home directory that already contains Oracle Database 10g release 2 (10.2) client software, the listener is not created. To create the listener, install and run Oracle Net Configuration Assistant after the installation. If the Administrator client is installed before Oracle Database, Oracle Net Configuration Assistant is already installed.
Follow the instructions displayed in the Oracle Universal Installer windows. If you need additional information, click Help.
When prompted for a password, follow these guidelines:
Make the password be between 4 and 30 characters long.
Use the database character set for the password's characters, which can include the underscore (_), dollar ($), and pound sign (#) characters.
Do not start passwords with a numeral.
Do not use a user name for a password.
Do no use Oracle reserved words for the password.
Do not use change_on_install for the SYS account password.
Do not use manager for the SYSTEM account password.
Do not use sysman for the SYSMAN account password.
Do not use dbsnmp for the DBSNMP account password.
If you choose to use the same password for all the accounts, do not use change_on_install, manager, sysman, or dbsnmp as a password.
Have the password include at least 1 alphabetic, 1 numeric, and 1 punctuation mark character
Do not use simple or obvious words, such as welcome, account, database, and user for the password.
|
Note: You must remember the passwords that you specify. |
Do not modify the Java Runtime Environment (JRE) except by using a patch provided by Oracle Support Services. Oracle Universal Installer automatically installs the Oracle-supplied version of the JRE. This version is required to run Oracle Universal Installer and several Oracle assistants.
If you encounter errors while installing or linking the software, see Appendix G in Oracle Database Installation Guide for Microsoft Windows (32-Bit) for information about troubleshooting.
If you chose an installation type that runs Database Configuration Assistant and Oracle Net Configuration Assistant in interactive mode, you must provide detailed information about configuring your database and network.
If you need assistance when using the Database Configuration Assistant or Oracle Net Configuration Assistant in interactive mode, click Help on any window.
|
Note: If you chose a default installation, Database Configuration Assistant and Oracle Net Configuration Assistant run non-interactively. |
When the configuration tools finish, click Exit, then click Yes to exit from Oracle Universal Installer.
When Oracle Enterprise Manager Database Control opens a Web browser, enter the username and password you created during the installation.
You can log in as SYS, SYSTEM, or SYSMAN. If you log in as SYS, then you must connect AS SYSDBA. Enter the password you specified for the account during installation.
Optionally, delete the OraInstalldate_time directory if you want to remove the temporary files that were created during the installation process. The OraInstalldate_time directory holds about 45 MB of files. This directory is created in the location set by the TEMP environment variable setting.
Restarting your computer also removes the OraInstalldate_time directory.
