This is a list of steps to check for when installing Oracle Applications.
Step 1: Ensure that hostname and IP address are in hosts file. Under Windows, ensure that in the hosts file, the hostname is in the following order:
127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost
xx.xx.xx.xx hostname.domainname alias
Step 2: Ping machine. It should return:
C:> ping alias
Pinging hostname.domainname [xx.xx.xx.xx] with 32 bytes of data:
Step 3: Create domain user applmgr and ensure that it is assigned to the Administrators group of the local machine.
Step 4: Install Visual C++ 6.0 to C:VC98 and apply service pack 4
Step 5: Install Cygwin to C:cygwin (see Metalink document “Using Cygwin to Maintain Release 11i on Windows” Doc ID:302859.1 for packages to download).
Step 6: To compile GNU Make, run VCVARS.bat from Visual C++ directory and in the gnumake-3.79.1 directory, run build_w32.bat twice. Copy gnumake.exe to c:cygwinbin (or C:mksntmksnt).
Step 7: Install Microsoft XML Parser (MSXML) 3.0 Service Pack 4 or later SDK. Copy file from Microsoft XML Parserlib to C:VC98lib.( 11.5.9)
Step 8: Install Java SDK 1.3.1_18 (11.5.9) (or 1.3.1_15?)
Step 9: Install Perl (download ActivePerl from http://www.perl.com) (11.5.10)
Step 10: Copy zip.exe and unzip.exe to C:mksntmksnt
Step 11: Ensure that all files are on the path:
which gnumake
which perl
which zip
which cc
which link
Modify path if necessary to include: C:Perlbin; C:cygwinbin;C:VC98bin.
Step 12: Ensure correct versions of Perl and Java installed:
Perl –version
ActivePerl version should be v5.8.8
On Linux, Perl should be 5.003 or later
Java –version
Should be 1.3.1_18
Step 13: Set TEMP and TMP environment variables for user applmgr to C:TEMP.
Step 14: Check manual on startCD for instructions on directory structure (11.5.9).
Step 15: Set up staging area.
