The failure typically is that the affected application such as Oracle 8i, simply terminates. Under Microsoft Windows*, the properties of the DLL are: "Symantec Java! Just-In-Time Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK 1.2 Copyright (C) 1996-99 Symantec Corporation Dynamic Link Library file". DLLs older than this will also not work. To confirm the version you are using, select the DLL, right click on the selected DLL and select Properties, and then the Version tab. Intel encourages all Software developers to do the following immediately: · Check if your application(s) uses the Symantec Just-In-Time Library file · Request an updated library file from your provider · Test your application with the new library file on Pentium® 4 processor system · Ensure you have plans in place to provide application updates and address customer concerns *Other brands and names are property of their respective owners If you are installing into Windows* 2000, one workaround recommendation by Oracle for this problem is: 1. Install the latest Windows* 2000 Service Pack patch: http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/downloads/ 2. Create a temporary directory on your Intel Pentium® 4 processor server (e.g. \TEMP). 3. Copy the contents of the Oracle* Server CD to the temporary directory created in step 2. 4. Search the directory structure created in step 2 for the existence of the filename SYMCJIT.DLL. 5. Rename each copy of the SYMCJIT.DLL to SYMCJIT.OLD. 6. Run the SETUP.EXE from the \TEMP\install\win32 directory and install Oracle 8.1.x. If you have any other questions on this work around, please contact Oracle. Добавлено Pentium IV Bug Fix Note: Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the Sun JRE and Symantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT, Windows 2000, and Netware platforms are confirmed to be affected. Description of Problem Likelihood of Occurence Possible Symptoms Workaround Patches Description of Problem When installing Oracle Products with the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) on machines that use the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT (using Oracle versions 8.i.x), the installer hangs. Specifically for the Windows platform, the following version of the Symmantec JIT or earlier will encounter the failure: Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK 1.2. Details regarding this issue can be found at: http://developer.intel.com/design/processor/future/manuals/knownissue.htm How to determine if you have Symmantec Java for JDK 1.2: 1. Select the file "symcjit.dll" and right click on it. 2. Select Properties, then the Version tab. 3. Under Microsoft Windows*, the properties of the DLL are: "Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK 1.2 Copyright (C) 1996-99 Symantec Corporation Dynamic Link Library file". DLLs older than this will also not work." Likelihood of Occurrence Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT, Windows 2000 and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be affected. Possible Symptoms The failure typically is that the affected application simply terminates. Workaround Not only will OUI be affected by this bug, most of the post-install configuration tools will also be affected. Running these tools with "-nojit" specified will avoid the hang, but it is not simple to specify "-nojit" for some of the products. The following workaround works for the Windows operating system: a. Copy only the install directory from the CD to the hard disk ,say, e:\temp. b. Open oraparam.ini and make the following modifications (Assuming CD drive is f * Change the "SOURCE=" line to use the full path to the CD instead of a relative path. (i.e., SOURCE=f:\stage\products.jar) * Change the "JRE_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the CD instead of a relative path. (i.e., JRE_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\jre\1.1.7\1\DataFiles\Expanded) * Change the "OUI_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the CD instead of a relative path. (i.e., OUI_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\oui\1.6.0.9.0\1\DataFiles\Expanded * Change the "JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS" line to add "-nojit" as the first argument. (i.e., JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m) * Other entries should remain the same c. Launch setup.exe from the temporary location on your hard drive (i.e. e:\temp\install\win32\setup.exe). This will use the modified oraparam.ini and pick up the information from the CD since the absolute locations are specified. Choose a Custom install and choose not to create a database during the install. This way, the Database Configuration Assistant will not be launched during installation. The Net8 Configuration Assistant will still be launched, and there is no way to suppress it. You will need to kill the Net8 Configuration Assistant if it hangs due to the bug. The installation still will have been successful, and you can run the DBCA and NetCA after installation. To kill NetCA if it hangs during installation: In the "Configuration Tools" window, highlight the "Net8 Configuration Assistant" and click "Stop". If that does not work, look for the most recent JRE process using the Task Manager, and kill it manually. NOTE: the OUI itself will also have a jre process. Be sure to kill the one with the most recent date, which should be the jre process being used for Net8CA, not the one for OUI itself. After killing the configuration tools and continuing through the installation to the "End of Installation" screen, you should modify the configuration tools to use "-nojit", then call the appropriate tools from the Start Menu. Once installation is complete, each of the following files in the ORACLE_HOME needs to be modified: assistants\dbca\dbassist.cl assistants\dbma\dbmig.cl assistants\ifa\ifa.cl bin\elogin.cl bin\owm.cl ldap\oidamdin\oidadmin.cl network\tools\netasst.cl network\tools\netca.cl owm\install\instelogin.cl owm\install\instowm.cl Edit the contents of the above files to add "-nojit" as shown below: Command=("C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\BIN\JREW" -nojit -classpath ....) Note: You only need to add the -nojit parameter. Then, launch the necessary tools, like Net8CA and DBCA from the Start Menu. Patches Currently there is not a patched installer available to deal with this problem, the workaround listed above must be used. Добавлено Versions Affected : Oracle Universal Installer 1.6.0.9.0 Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.0.19.0 Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.1.9.0 Platforms Affected : Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem.

Solution : 1 - It is also recomended to configure Windows to use only 256 colors. 2 - Not only will OUI be affected by this bug, most of the post-install configuration tools will also be affected.

The following is a step by step procedure to successfully installing > Oracle Services against an Intel Windows server: > 1- Download JRE 1.2.2_008 from the following link(s): > http://java.sun.com/products/plugin/old.html > or > http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.2/jre/download-windows.html > 2- Install JRE 1.2 and extract the "symcjit.dll" file. > 3- copy your entire Oracle 8.1.x CD to your local > file system (example: d:\OraServ816) > 4- Replace d:\OraServ816\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre > \1.1.7.xx\1\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll > with the new one from (2) step above > [caution]> > 5- Add this to the path environment variable: > C:\Program Files\JavaSoft\JRE\1.2\bin\classic; > such that jvm.dll can be located and run in accordance. > 6- Run the setup utility from the main local media folder > (example: d:\OraServ816) or d:\OraServ816\install\win32\setup.exe > This should allow you to install the Universal Installer and the > Server Product. > In order to successfully install other Oracle Products such as the > documentation, etc, it would be best to invoke the OUI from you local > media versus relying on the installer from product CD. > Hope this helps anyone with the P4, Win 2K Oracle RDBMS Services > installation issues. |
