 Install the Oracle 9i Database Software

Download the Oracle 9i Release 2 Suite software (9.2.0.1):

http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oracle9i/index.html

Save all three file segments listed under Oracle9i Database Release 2 Enterprise/Standard/Personal Edition for
Windows NT/2000/XP – 92010NT_Disk1.zip, 92010NT_Disk2.zip, and 92010NT_Disk3.zip, in my case -- to the
directory of your choosing.

Create the Disk1, Disk2, and Disk3 directories in your extraction directory (i.e. mkdir <your directory>/Diskn)

Unzip the previously downloaded files to their corresponding extraction directory; make sure to use the ‘Use
folder names’ option of WinZip. (Right-click; WinZip > Extract to..; specify <your directory>/Diskn)

Install the software via <your directory>\Disk1\setup.exe (Right-click; Open)

The Universal Installer will appear. Click ‘Next’ at the Welcome screen.

Specify the file location and name for your Oracle 9i Release 2 Database %ORACLE_HOME%. Ensure that the
path is pointing to the appropriate products.jar; click ‘Next’:

Select the ‘Enterprise Edition’ installation type and click ‘Next’:

Page 5 of 14
Select the ‘Software Only’ installation type and click ‘Next’:

Click ‘Install’ to begin the installation on the ‘Summary’ screen

When it appears, cancel out of the Oracle Net Configuration

Click ‘Exit’ on the ‘End of Installation’ screen

Patch the Oracle 9i Database Software to 9.2.0.6

Download patch 3948480 from Metalink:

https://metalink.oracle.com

Save the file – p3948480_9206_WINNT.zip, in my case, to the directory of your choosing.

Unzip the previously downloaded files to their corresponding extraction directory; make sure to use the ‘Use
folder names’ option of WinZip. (Right-click; WinZip > Extract to..; specify <your directory>)

Install the software via <your directory>\Disk1\setup.exe (Right-click; Open)

The Universal Installer will appear. Click ‘Next’ at the Welcome screen.

path is pointing to the appropriate products.jar; click ‘Next’:

Create the 9i Database for the Designer Repository

1. Create directories on the file system for the database; example:

mkdir C:\oracle\
mkdir C:\oracle\admin
mkdir C:\oracle\oradata
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\repo
mkdir C:\oracle\oradata\repo
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\bdump
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\cdump
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\create
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\pfile
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\scripts
mkdir C:\oracle\admin\udump

2. Create the parameter file for the instance -- C:\oracle\admin\repo\pfile\initrepo.ora, in my case –

and edit the values to be appropriate for your instance (see Appendix A). Link to the parameter file you created
by creating a new file, %ORACLE_HOME%\database\init%ORACLE_SID%.ora, and editing it to include an IFILE
directive to the actual parameter file for the instance; example:

IFILE=C:\oracle\admin\repo\pfile\initrepo.ora

Page 7 of 14
3. Ensure that your user is part of the ORA_DBA group:

Start > Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Computer Management > Local Users and Groups
Click on Groups
Click on ORA_DBA
Add any user to the group that should be able to connect to oracle on the machine as a DBA without a password

4. Edit the %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\sqlnet.ora networking file to include the following entries;

example:

SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES=(NTS)
NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN=colestock.com

5. Start the Listener (we will use the default listener and port)

set ORACLE_HOME=C:\apps\oracle\9.2.0.6
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin; %PATH%
set ORACLE_SID=repo
lsrnctl start
lsnrctl> status

6. Create the Windows Service for the database instance in question; example:

oradim -NEW –SID %ORACLE_SID% -STARTMODE manual

7. Create the Database after editing the script in Appendix B; example:

sqlplus "/ as sysdba";

sqlplus>startup nomount;
sqlplus> @c:\oracle\admin\repo\create\create_database.sql
sqlplus> @%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\admin\catalog.sql
sqlplus> @%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\admin\catproc.sql
sqlplus> @%ORACLE_HOME%\rdbms\admin\utlrp.sql

8. Create the repository owner and all dependent objects and grants by editing as appropriate and then running
Appendix C; example:

sqlplus> @c:\oracle\admin\repo\create\create_repo.sql

9. Add the repository’s database service to the Oracle Developer Suite10g’s

%ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\tnsnames.ora file and test connectivity; example:

REPO.COLESTOCK.COM =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = repo.colestock.com)
)
)

set ORACLE_HOME=C:\apps\oracle\DEVSUITE904
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin; %PATH%
tnsping %ORACLE_SID%

The aforementioned should resolve, resulting in an ‘OK’

 Create the Designer Repository

Source the Oracle Developer Suite10g’s environment and then

start the RAU (Repository Administrator Utility); example:

set ORACLE_HOME=C:\apps\oracle\DEVSUITE904
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin; %PATH%
c:\apps\oracle\DEVSUITE904\bin\ckrau61.exe

Connect as the repository owner – repo, in my case -- on your repository database:

Click 'Check Requirements'; ensure that all requirements have been satisfied and then clink 'Install':

Page 9 of 14
Select ‘Support for Oracle Designer Objects’ and then 'OK':

Select 'No' for the public synonym prompt:

Specify the Index and Table Tablespaces and the repository size then click ‘Start’:

Page 10 of 14
Click 'OK' to the warning:

When the Repository is done, you should see a pop-up designating the 'Operation Complete':
