Oracle 10G on Windows is so buggy

[learning_bee]

I tried to install Oracle 10G on Windows 10G and run into many problems with the software. the first problem I have is the it tired to create Oraclecsservice it fail so I kept continue and then ocr fail, Oracle admit that it's a bug and development is working on the issue. Any way, the isntallation got through when I use DBCA to delete the database, it ran for about 20% and the screen disappear and nothing was deleted.

Any one had any similar issues????

I haven't had any problems with installing 10g on Win... So what can be the conclusion?

I've installed it on three Windoz computers without a problem.

Hi.

I've installed it several times on Windows 2000 and XP for test purposes and I've never had a problem. I've been running a test instance on an XP machine for several months without a reboot. Doesn't seem buggy to me!

Of course, anyone with any sense would run it on Linux. It installs and works fine on Fedora Core 3.

Damn. I knew I should have qualified that. I have installed it on several company issued laptops running XP. Our PC Guys just don't support Linux on laptops yet.

Of course, anyone with any sense would run it on Linux.

For any production application or development I agree. I installed it so we could get some exposure to 10g during our "Free Time".

Rest assured, I still think Windoz sucks for running Oracle. In fact, that belief has been re-inforced by installing Oracle on three little laptops.
