Problem with Oracle 10g Installation

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am installing Oracle 10G rel. 10.2.0.1.0 in a fresh formatted system on win 2003 enterp. edition. SP1.

In the installtion at 99% stage after setup is done it throws pop-up that : "isqlplusscv : failed to start the service, Error , the operation completed successfully".

Installation seems to have finished successfully but,I see in services.msc that isqlplus* service is in "starting" mode and i have tried all possible ways to start the service manually, setting ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID env. variables thru cmd and manually also with all sets of permutaions and combinations.But still 'OraclePSI102ISQL*Plus' service is in 'starting' status only.

Even tried uninstalling oracle with all proper registry deletions in a proper procedure and re-installed 10G.Still at the same 99% stage it throws same pop-up, and all the above condition is same.

Could anyone help resolving this?

Please help ASAP.

With Regards,

Krishna.

Tried launching ISQLPLUS thru command line as :

set ORACLE_HOME

set PATH including %ORACLE_HOME%\bin

isqlplusctl status

isqlplusctl stop

isqlplusctl start

it throws the same pop-up, but shows in cmd as started.But in service.msc, it is still in 'starting' status.

I am Trying to resolve ISQLplus service, as heard that without that service at the time of SAP instalation it will give some problems and throw error.

i even tried through win 2003 SP2, but still same pop-up is coming.

$ORACLE_HOME/install/portlist.ini

I used sapserver.cmd only.....

Hi,

Windows which version you are using 64 bit should be recommended and go for service pack 2

Hope this will solve your problem

Did you install the database software using "sapserver.cmd" instead of "setup.exe"?

you can bypass this step, you do not need that service.

to delete it:

sc delete [service name]

such as:

sc delete oracleprd102isqlplus (or similiar name)

I guess, Eric is correct, that service can be deleted, why need iSql

Hello Krishna

Verify that the Windows username on the isqlplus service has privileges to the ORACLE_HOME (normally this would run as SYSTEM, so normally not a problem)

check that no other process is using the isqlplus port already - 5560

probably you can user netstat for this

Also,First try the command line way to see if ISQLPLUS can be launched:

set ORACLE_HOME

set PATH including %ORACLE_HOME%\bin

isqlplusctl status

isqlplusctl stop

isqlplusctl start
