i am sure you will get some workarounds but you know that 8i on xp is not supported right?
Are you trying to install from cd or from oracle's site?
Oracle 8.1.7 on Pentium 4 bugs,Oracle installer won’t run on Pentium 4
do the following step:
1. copy the entire CD to somewhere on your hard drive
2. go to the INSTALL folder and edit the file named oraparam.ini( oracle817\install\oraparam.ini)
3. open this file and
edit from
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-mx96m
To:
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit –mx96m
Save it and start to install by using the software that you have copy to your hard drive
Good luck
well mike2000, i tried exactly what you said but still the same problem....it just dont react when i click on install or setup.....
and mvillani, its from a cd.
So please does anyone know another way?
how do you run Oracle Installer????
On 8.1.7 do this:
open the Oracle folder on your Hard drive -> autorun folder -> double click on autorun executable not autorun icon ok !!!!!
