Error message: PRVF-3929 - PATH environment variable.

Hello

I'm trying to install Oracle on my laptop and get the following error message resulting in installation hault.

INFO: *********************************************
NEWS: Environment Variable: 'PATH': this test checks if the length of the 'PATH' environment variable does not exceed the recommended time.
INFO: Severity: CRITICAL
INFO: OverallStatus:VERIFICATION_FAILED
INFO: -----------------------------------------------
INFO: Results of the audit for node: JF - PC
NEWS: Expected value: 1023
NEWS: Real value: 1159
INFO: Error Message: PRVF-3929: adding location of Oracle binary in the PATH environment variable exceeds the length limit of the BONES of "1023" for the variable on node "JF - PC."
INFO: Cause: the installer must update the environment variable PATH to include the value of '% ORACLE_HOME%/bin';.
However, this will cause a path exceeds the maximum allowed length that allows the operating system.
INFO: Action: make sure that the sum of the length of your current PATH environment variable and one of
"% ORACLE_HOME%/bin;" does not exceed the limit of the operating system.
Restart Setup after correcting the value of environment variable.


Installation of the ton tent of the Oracle database - win64_11gR2

MY PC CONFIGURATION:
-Windows 7
-64-bit

Can you please help me get this resolved please.

The following information appears to be linked: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/830473

According to the link above, the maximum length of the PATH environment variable is 2048/8192 characters. Apparently the length has been increased to 2048 from Windows XP SP2. Your current path is about 1200 characters that is less than the limit of the OS.

The Oracle installer is incorrect about the PRVF-3929 error message? Or if the length of the path environment variable is not the real problem? Maybe you can try temporarily shorten the path and add the full pathname after the installation of Oracle.

You should be able to modify the path as follows:
From the desktop, do a right click my computer, and then click Properties.
In the System Properties window, click the Advanced tab.
In the Advanced section, click the Environment Variables button.

Using Windows 7 Professional? If the error message occurs even with a short path, then maybe there something else trigger this error, as the antivirus or other security software.

  • Path environment variable limitation

    Hello

    On a windows 2003 Server SP2 a program does not start when the PATH environment variable is longer than 1023 characters

    I have a similar limitation on windows XP, but the limit seems to be 2047

    I found a link that talks about this kind of limitation, but nothing that has a list of the limitation of path on the Windows platform environment several.  This limitation is resolved by a patch?

  • How the PATH environment variable longer?

    Hello

    I use Windows Vista Business.  Lately, I just installed the beta of Intel Parallel Studio and found that my path variable ran out of space.  Internet research concluded that there cannot be more than 1024?
    It is too little for me to welcome all directories program that I installed, and thus some programs no longer work correctly.
    I wonder if there-
    (a) is a way I can expand the size of the Path system variable?
    (b) add another variable which can take some Path variable values so that I do not violate the limitation of 1024.
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello, Gutsingh

    The PATH environment variable has a fixed limit of 1023 characters can be used. It doesn't seem to be a way to extend this. Other environment variables have a higher limit, which can be useful.

    Let us know if that helps.

  • The shortcut error message: the specified path is not; Maybe reinstall Firefox whenever I want to use.

    When I install Firefox, it works very well. Installation does not include a shortcut on my desktop, then when I try to start it again, I go to "all programs." Next, I get the message "the specified path does not exist. I think it has something to do with the confusion between two hard disks. C: drive, a small SSD, contains the operating system and other software. D: drive is my data disc, contains other applications, photos, music, etc. The way referred to in the error message is D:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe.

    Firefox does not have the ability to choose a disk for installation. Is it possible that it is automatically installed on the C: drive, the shortcut continues to send on the D: drive?

    If you have any ideas or suggestions, I'd like to hear them.

    Using your file browser, look for Firefox in c:\Program Files (x 86)
    After, look in other files of the program (x 86)

    Once you find it, click with the right button on Firefox.exe and create a shortcut.
    Move it to your desktop. It work?

    Note: In the creation of shortcuts, you can without spaces. Instead of use;
    c:\Program Files (x 86), you should use; "c:\Program Files (x 86)".

  • Create the directory objects with the path environment variable

    I need to create a directory object and wonder if it's valid to use an environment variable in the nom_chemin?  Example:

    CREATE or REPLACE DIRECTORY XMLDIR AS ' $ORACLE_HOME/rdbms/xml ";

    I read the following in the Oracle 11.2 documentation, but it is is not clear to me if an environment variable is allowed or not.  My reason for wanting to use a variable of environment as opposed to hard coding is for when I update, I have no back reference to the old House of Oracle.

    nom_chemin

    Specify the name of the full path of the directory on the server where the operating system files are located. Single quotes are required, so that the path name is case-sensitive.

    > I see that many developers have created objects to directory with the environment variables in the path.

    Please post reproducible test

    You know & realize that the Oracle database is independent of the operating system (OS)?

    Environment variable is OS specific.

    In this case, you can try manually deleting registry keys.

    Well Yes, since the date or purchase, you may return the product within 30 days, I guess. You can go ahead and buy the upgrade 14 items. Same Support from Adobe can help you with the installation process, they can access remotely your comp and install the application for you.

  • "Call the executable" allows the environment variable "path"?

    Hello

    It seems that when you use the step type "call the executable" you need to enter the absolute path of the executable, or the absolute working directory, in the definition of "call settings" step.  I seem not to be able to put in a *.exe by himself in the path and have the command is found, even if I can't enter this same command on the command line (windows 7).  Is it possible to configure this step to use the windows ' path' environment variable to search for the executable?

    David J.

    You can do the following:

    (1) specify cmd.exe for the file path.

    (2) specify "/c yourexe.exe" for the argument expression

    This will launch a command window and tell it to run your application with the simple file name.

    The reason why you can't put just yourexe.exe in the path of file is that TestStand made its own resolution of file path that is different from what the window command. It uses its directories to search to resolve relative paths. If you do not have to specify an absolute path for the file path parameter, but it must be compared to a TestStand search directory or the current sequence file.

    Hope this helps,
