RE: NOTES: so it seems that do us step 4 [update software/binary in the ORACLE_HOMEs] here
instead of step 3 [install but do not configure Oracle Identity Management] starting from
'Build base Middleware of Oracle 11g Architecture'.
Maybe suggest to change the documentation in MOS Advisor upgrade,
to remove step 3 until after the upgrade the binaries and install patches 11g group.
Or change this 3/4 part to talk to install IDM.

RE: NOTE: it looks like a typo/read error on the page that says "necessary to run the Wizard Patch (PSA) Set?"
There, it says '... If the Group of hotfixes version UCR has been used, no action is required. "I think that it should
say «...» If the Group of hotfixes RCU version was NOT used, no action is required. »

Specify the Application FOR page/section: you must specify OID information for installation of the portal.
If you do not wish to integrate oracle descoverer services and do not want single sign - on, uncheck the box.
RE: NOTICE: verbal instructions on this boy, are confused.    Instructions on where to get information from the OID would be useful
here. in addition, the instructions show that if you have specified use of discoverer, a check box is displayed and check
That's if you want to use the SSO on.   A blurb on what if you did NOT specify discoverer would be appropriate here.
Or something about this discoverer is and if it comes by default with the installation.

First, as discussed in another thread, I plan to reformulate the wording of this step... so thanks again for your comments.

Note on this question / comment

"To understand at the time where we upgrade repository portal.  In my opinion, who runs the configuration wizard PFRD is that fact for us.  I will go through the video.    And me who runs the IDM upgrades OID configuration wizard. »

PFRD Configuration Wizard does not upgrades the repository of the portal, it creates just a portal 11g AS Instance against the repository Portal 10g's existing. The Upgrade Wizard upgrades site two-step

1 put Update Wizard (option "upgrade intermediate level Instance") upgrades 11 g base instance configuration so that it matches the source portal AS10g instance configuration

2 Upgrade Wizard (option "Upgrade the repository in metadata schemas") upgrades the repository Portal 10 g.

It's a similar story for instant messaging, only the IM Upgrade Wizard upgrades the configuration file system and the GI database schemas in a go (IE there is no upgrade wizard option separated to "Upgrade the repository in metadata schemas")

I think that the Viewlet created the PFRD and IDM Upgrade Guides whether clear.

  • FMW: Portal Upgrade Advisor - video part 4 patch the Oracle Home "how to install Oracle Middleware 11 g Rel 1 portal and discoverer" should specify to use previous pfrd Oracle Home

    https://support.Oracle.com/CSP/main/article?cmd=show & type = ATT & ID = 1118681.1:PD11G_INSTALL_PT4 & inline = 1

    The verbal and demo explanation does not use the original location/Oracle HOme of the previously
    installed for the binary PFRD base.   It probably should.

    In addition, for some steps to follow to patch binaries PFRD, I'd put it:

    Step 4.  I am guessing that the patch will establish an another sub dir Disk1 and don't want to overwright
    installation of the initial PFRD, therefore, moves the Group of hotfixes as follows.

    CD/opt/web/install/PortalUpgradeAdvisor/pfrd
    960 ls - ltr
    Group of hotfixes mkdir 961
    Group patches 962 mv p11060983_111140_LINUX.zip
    Group patches 963 cd.
    Unzip 964 *.

    RE: of course, having unpacked the group created patches another subdirectory Disk1 with his own runInstaller
    VNC gui:

    I guess, all we are doing is patching of binary files, nothing should be running.
    Maybe an environment set in same, as when we ran last the PFRD install, however.  There we / I had
    run. / set_mid_clean after making sure the files property was oracle: oracle.

    Yes, VNC gui and
    / opt/Web/Install/PortalUpgradeAdvisor/pfrd/Patchset/disk1
    . / runInstaller

    Here again, we select Install Software - is not configured
    RE: Get the message again on this screen "installs the software only. After said is finished, use
    config.sh at ORACLE bin directory to configure the working bodies of these components installed.

    Specify the installation location.  Always to
    Oracle Middleware homepage: / opt/oracle/Middleware
    and
    An Oracle home directory: as_2 # I bet it must be as_1 because that is where the initial PFRD install binary files has occurred.

    NOTE: The summary of the Installation in the video screen escape the Oracle Home is the previous specified during the initial installation. That is to say. PFRD_Binaries.   I guess I should have named that instead of taking the default as_1. At least I would have to have done that.  Well.  Maybe this story might help the next guy.

    Also

    NOTE: The Installation screen is not "from" group of patches as in the video where it says
    Install Oracle Portal, forms, reports, and discover the Group of hotfixes.

    Hi Charlie
    I'm a little confused by this feedback. Especially when you say that you see the option "install - do not configure. Should this option is visible only when you run the Basic 11.1.1.2 PFRD the software installer. The Group of hotfixes 11.1.1.4 has his own 'runInstaller'... and this will display what you see in the viewlet. You definitely run the installer from the directory of stage in the Group of hotfixes? (I'll do my own validation test - if I find something strange going on... I'll report.)

    I now take the following action

    1. I will put the Viewlet so it is clear that the Group of hotfixes is staged in a different place from the base 11.1.1.2 media
    2. provide that nothing must be running (because at this point, no instance of 11 g of construction has been configured)
    3. There's a "slippage" that illustrates the Middleware and Oracle Home entries in the screen "Location of Installation to specify" IE

    Middleware homepage: / u01/alca_portal/middleware
    Oracle home: PFRD_Binaries

    However, you will see that this slide for 2 seconds (which is an error) and if you miss it probably.

    Just FYI - the House of Oracle 11 g correction is in general the same procedure as patching a mid-layer House AS10g i.e

    -You set the Oracle Home base using the installation of the basic software program
    -You patch the Oracle home using the installation program of the Group of hotfixes

  • Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor will work (unexpected error)

    My Vista Machine won't work for Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor. It is said he "encountered an unexpected error" (not too informative, huh?) and advise the relocation, which does not.  Or no tweaking startup with msconfig and disable my antivirus/firewall. The program is in the "zone of confidence" anyway. How can I get a handle on this problem?

    Here are a few advanced WMI troubleshooting you can try.

    1. on Windows XP Pro and Vista, run the two separate commands to
    recreate the Windows Management Instrumentation database files.

    NOTE: Under vista, there must be run from an administrator command prompt commands

    1. click on start and type CMD
    2. search for 'command prompt' at the top of the window and right click / Select 'run as administrator '.

    type controls 2 successively, hitting enter after each one.

    WMIC \\root path "__espacenoms '" delete

    mofcomp %windir%\system32\wbem\wmi.mof

    2. If the problem persists after trying the above steps, save the
    WMI DLL files with the steps below.

    1. click on start and type CMD
    2. search for 'command prompt' at the top of the window and right click / Select 'run as administrator '.
    b. type the following commands one by one, and then press ENTER at the end of each
    command:

    CD /d %windir%\system32\wbem
    for %i in (*.dll) do RegSvr32 %I s
    for %i in (*.exe) do %i/regserver
    for /f %s in (' dir /b * .mof "" ') do mofcomp %s
    for /f %s in (' dir /b * .mfl ' ') do mofcomp %s

    Note: The WMI Tester window may appear, it is
    normal and we can move forward to close.

    Let me know if this helps, please also indicate any error you see in the above process.

    NOTES about the Upgrade Advisor in

    Looks like there may be a confused statement in Chapter 2 on «jdk previosly» installed

    "A JRE is packaged in the 32-bit Windows and x 86 Linux installation programs"

    Chapter 2:

    Before you start the installation program
    Before starting Setup, verify the following information:

    If you install the software in graphics mode on a UNIX or Linux machine, you must set the DISPLAY environment variable before you run the installation program.
    If you use an installer of the synchro .bin file, replace JAVA_HOME with the installation of the JDK supported location you have installed for your platform.

    ...

    [Then goes on to say]

    Functions of the base directory

    The directories in the home directory of Middleware vary according to the installation program you use and the products that you have selected for installation.
    For example, WebLogic Server Setup creates the directories and files listed in the table below if you have selected all the components for installation.

    Table 2-4 Directory Description for Middleware House

    Directory or file Description

    This directory contains the software for the JDK from Sun, if it is installed with your software. The JDK provides the environment to run Java (JRE) and tools for compiling and debugging Java applications.

  • Windows 7 upgrade advisor, program compatibility HP Media

    owner of an HP dv6-1245dx. Always running vista, upgrade to 7 soon.

    I downloaded the windows Upgrade Advisor 7, I ran the program. 3 mistakes come in saying I have the version of the HP Media Smart DVD, HP MediaSmart Music/video/Photo, HP Media TV program

    I click on him "click here to get a compatiable version," programs.

    1. I click on HP Media Smart DVD, it takes me to a page where it wants me to download a version for HP touchsmart... but I do not have an HP smart touch, I a dv6 (wrong product).

    2. I click on the HP MediaSmart Music/video/Photo, which brings me to random about the software with no upgrade or products page

    3. I click on th HP Media TV, I see that he wants me to download an older version of the program.

    so I download, install, restart my computer, run the Upgrade Advisor, hoping to see that there are 2 errors, but NO, the HP mediaSmart TV said it must still be fixed... which I just did again!

    Basically the first link go to a page of bad product, and the second link sent me to a random page that talks about program and it does not recognize that I just fixed one of the questions that he told me to fix.

    Can you guys help out me?

    What are the program version compatiability of HP Media Smart DVD, HP MediaSmart Music/video/Photo, HP Media TV, which will allow me to level to windows 7 safely?

    Hello

    Windows 7 upgrade advisor is not so smart as you think. It showes sometimes bad results.

    According to this document from HP to down:

    The upgrade to Windows 7

    Question:

    Unable to uninstall HP MediaSmart DVD in Windows 7.

    Fix or workaround:

    Uninstall MediaSmart DVD before the upgrade to Windows 7. After the upgrade to Windows 7, install the compatible version Windows 7 HP MediaSmart DVD the DVD Upgrade Wizard at level HP or www.hp.com/support .

    Which means then you just uninstall HP MediaSmart DVD before upgrade.

    When you're after update just install all of the latest software for MediaSmart and everything should be ok.

  • Upcoming games with Windows 7 will not work on Presario SR1020NX. Upgrade Advisor said that W7 would work with the exception of the Aero

    W7 Upgrade Advisor said it would work with the exception of Windows Aero.  When the games to try to come with W7 get window 'game running in software rendering... '. Hardware acceleration disabled or not supported by the video card driver"games will not work. A check says last drivers are installed.  Tried to reinstall WXP in separeat partition to see if would work like that but will not because most recent W7.

    I suggest that you use XP personally gave a computer which is so old.

    If you have a computer with XP (3 + years) and have not changed at least two of these things (CPU, RAM, video card), you should probably stick with XP. Not worth the headache of praying that things work with a material more old which probably is no longer supported on the new OS.
    Usually, people that the computer was shipped with Vista 1, 2 or less it several years ago can be upgraded to 7 without too much trouble if it was a mid-range machine.

    In addition, it seems that Windows is not recognizing your graphics card. It looks like (http://www99.shopping.com/xPO-Hewlett-Packard-SR1020NX-CEL2-8-512-80-COM-XPH) you have an Intel Extreme graphics card. However, nothing about it is extreme. Since it is an extreme Intel card I guess Windows Update should find the drivers for you, but it is not then maybe the video card is just too outdated for 7? I'm not sure.

    Moreover, I wouldn't worry much about the lack of updates for XP right now. If ever you encounter more money then get the new computer with 7 on it, but at this time I suggest you stay on XP if your hardware and software actually works and that is more important than a few features of 7.

  • Bad Windows 7 on RAM Upgrade Advisor

    Just ran Windows Upgrade Advisor to see if I could run Windows 7 and he said: I have 1.8 GB of RAM? I have 2 GB so no idea why he comes up with 1.8?

    If the computer has a graphics card it is not distinct from the memory for the video system. Instead, the graphics chip claims some of the system memory for its use. 200-256 MB is pretty typical.

  • Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor didn't finish and restore to Windows Vista

    I try to install Windows 7 and started using Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor to examine the State of Vista.

    A number of questions appeared so I did the updates or of facilities such as specified. I then re-ran and it shows now no problems.

    The only things without green ticks are the wireless printer which he cannot evaluate but does report does not as a problem.

    The upgrade of Windows runs almost until the end and then fails and rolls back to Vista. When you are finished, he said to use Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor!

    Where should I go now?

    Notes:

    • Collect all the important application discs and discs of hardware driver, you might need to be reinstalled.
    • Consult the manufacturer and the site of developers of software for available updates and inquire about the status of compatibility with Windows 7. It is possible that if the software is compatible with Windows Vista it probably will work with Windows 7, because they share the same driver model.
    • If you use software like iTunes or Adobe programs, don't forget to remove and disable them before you run the installation program.

    Back up your data:

    When important changes to your computer, for example an upgrade, it is always recommended that you back up your system before installing a new version of Windows. Windows Vista, depending on the edition you are running includes a form of backup. If you run editions such as Windows Vista Business, Enterprise or Ultimate Edition, you can use the built in backup of the computer of your Vista installation. This can be handy if your installation of Windows 7. For instructions on how to use the backup of the computer, see article following here. Of course, you'll need an external hard drive for this task.

    If you are running editions such as Windows Vista Starter, Home Basic or Home Premium, the only option available to backup the standard backup and restore that archive the records of your account with some settings. If you need a similar to the complete PC backup option, you will need a third party too.

    See the following article from Microsoft MVP JW Stuart on how to make a backup of a Windows here installation using Acronis True Image here

    Alternatively, you can use for backup of Windows Vista is Easeus backup, JW Stuart also has an article about it here

    Other steps that you can use to check your data is secure before the upgrade creates a backup of Windows Easy Transfer. Learn more here , this option is very limited and should be used only if do not plan to return to Windows Vista because the easy transfer of backups can be restored in Windows 7 or Windows 7.

    What you can do before performing the upgrade?

    You can perform certain tasks of pre-required to ensure a migration smoothly between Windows Vista and Windows 8. If you use a computer such as a Dell or HP brand name, go to the website of manufacturers for the model computer you are using and download the latest drivers available for this computer. Store them on a disk or a USB key. You should try to get important factors include network and video drivers. Its possible that they might have only Windows Vista, those that will work with Windows 7.

    Other things you can do:

    1. Uninstall all security software before attempting to upgrade.
    2. Disable any encryption software, that you may have installed such as file encryption, BitLocker Drive encryption.
    3. Disable/uninstall software utility to drive such as CD/DVD burning utility or third-party programs such as perfect disk defragment.
    4. Make sure your computer is updated (devices and applications).
    5. Disconnect external devices before installing.
    6. Check your hard drive for errors:
      -Click Start
      -Type: CMD
      -Right click on CMD, and then click Run as administrator
      At the command prompt, type: chkdsk /f /r
      Exit the command prompt.

    When you restart your system, your computer will be scanned for errors and will try to correct them.
  • Another thing you can do is to disable startup items:
    • Click Start
    • Type: MSCONFIG.
    • Press enter on your keyboard
    • On the general tab, click Selective startup.
    • Under Selective startup, clear the check box load startup items.
    • Click the Services tab, select the hide all Microsoft Services check box, and then click Disable all.
    • Click OK.
    • When you are prompted, click on restart.
    • After the computer starts, check if the problem is resolved.

    If you have compatible hardware and your computer still stops responding, disable any unnecessary material. Remove (USB) universal serial bus devices. Remove or disable network cards, sound cards and cards of the series; and then restart the installation.

  • Windows 7 upgrade advisor, Vista, says that Firefox must be uninstalled before the upgrade and that I won't be able to reinstall it, is it true?

    I'm currently running Vista, 32-bit. I am considering upgrading to Windows 7. I ran the report Upgrade Advisor and he said "Mozilla Firefox 20.0.1 must be uninstalled before the upgrade to Windows 7. You will be able to reinstall it after upgrading to Windows 7. "This seems inaccurate info, based on the Firefox site, but I want to check what I have to do before you start the upgrade. Leave Firefox installed and in place when I update or uninstall and reinstall then after the upgrade?

    Hello herplaw, you're right, this doesn't look good - firefox will work fine on windows 7. I leave it installed and to proceed with the update. in any case (if you need to reinstall it later), you can also save personal information that is stored in your firefox profile before continuing: back up and restore the information contained in the profiles of Firefox

    Best regards, Willem

    My problem has been resolved.

    Previously, the problem with "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor BETA.

    I waited two months - now, I executed the Adviser again, resulting in "an important upgrade".

    And guess: update Advisor works like a rocket, finishing with a nice report with minor problems.

    So I think that the problem was a "Windows 7 Upgrade Advisor" - problem - not a HP computer laptop-problem.
