Installing Oracle9iA new install of Oracle9i is required on the
instructor machine and each student machine.
Oracle provides a utility called the Universal Installer
(so-called because it looks the same onall platforms) that will
walk you through the installation process. The Installer may
start
automatically upon inserting the Oracle CD; if not, start
setup.exe on the CD.
All defaults offered by the Installer can be taken, including
installation of the STARTER
database. You should be presented a message indicating the
install was successful and the namesand passwords of the initial
userids. The name of the database and database instance will also
be
displayed. This information needs to be noted and provided to
the instructor.
After installation, login to SQL*Plus with the SYSTEM userid and
execute the following query:SELECT * FROM v$database;
A successful response from this query is another good indication
that the installation wassuccessful.
If you have any questions, please call SkillBuilders at
401.783.6172 and request installation
support.
Student FilesThe student files consist of finished versions of
the various labs, files needed to complete certain
labs, and various demo applications. They are provided on the
course CD in the form of a self-extracting zip file called
SETUP.EXE that will create a student directory (c:/oraclass)
and
subdirectories.
Important note: If the student files from a previous session of
this course are still on the
machine, they will have to be refreshed. Erase the student
directory and all subdirectories and
reinstall the student files as described below.
