    Workarounds
    ~~~~~~~~~~~

    Workaround 1:
    1. Obtain the OUI application (~17.5MBs) under patch number 1507768 in
    Metalink:
    a. Click Patches button
    b. Enter 1507768 in the Patch Number field
    c. Click Submit
    d. Download the patch

    2. Unzip the patch.

    3. Unzip the contents to a directory (~20MBs).

    4. Navigate to:
    \cd\Disk1\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll

    Rename symcjit.dll to symcjit.dll.old

    5. Invoke the OUI executable from the following directory, and install the
    OUI to your hard disk:

    cd .\cd\Disk1\install\win32\setup.exe6.

    Use/Invoke this installed OUI from Start menu > Programs, to install
    Oracle 8.1.x and related products.


    Workaround 2:
    1. Create a temporary directory on your server.

    2. Copy the entire contents of the Oracle RDBMS Server CD
    to the temporary directory created in step 1.

    3. Search the directory structure created in Step 1 for the existence of
    the filename symcjit.dll.

    4. Rename each copy of the symcjit.dll to symcjit.old.

    5. Run the setup.exe from the \install\win32 directory and install Oracle
    8.1.x and related products.

    Workaround 3:
    If you continue to experience any of the symptoms after performing either of
    the workarounds above, follow these steps:

    1. Copy the contents of the \install directory to a temporary directory on
    your harddisk.

    2. Search for all copies of the 'symcjit.dll' file, and rename them to
    symcjit.old'.

    3. Go to the \install directory and open the 'oraparam.ini' file for
    editing.
    Please note this file is write-protected.

    4. Change the JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS parameter to

    JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m

    5. Save the oraparam.ini file.

    6. Start the installation again.
