Windows2000

Can you install Oracle 8i for NT on Windows 2000 ?

Thanks,

Jo.

Yes,

8.1.7 is definately certified - I think 8.1.6 is as well, but I'd need to check to be definate.

I have 8i 8.1.5 on windows2000.
Previously I had installed Oracle lite, maybe this instalation have create some OS boot files, who knows?

Jo,
I installed Oracle 8.1.6 on Windows 2000 and it is working fine.

8.1.5i is not compatiable with win2K . But as a database , you can still use it , enterprise manager function may not work

Thanks everyone,

Having checked my CDs, I've noticed that 8.1.5 just specifies being for NT, whereas 8.1.6 says that it's for NT and Windows 2000 . Plus, the Oracle documentation only refers to Releases 2 and 3 for Win 2k, so I'm going to try to install 8.1.6.

Hi,
U all need to take precaution on the 8.1.6.0.0 - This version might cause u start database manually if u use the Windows 2000. The status for Oracle Service always 'Starting'. You might need to apply the version 8.1.6.1.1 and 8.1.6.1.4

Hopes this will useful
