RE: 8.1.7 Standard Edition install

 

  

Sissi,

This sounds like a problem that I had. Here is some info that someone else
had sent me. What I ended up doing was installing the client by components
rather than a full install. It was a pain in the butt but it worked.

I suspect this is bug 1291239 "OUI DISAPPEARS WHILE
INSTALLING OLE DB COMPONENTS" that is not yet fixed.
The workaround is to do as Simon said and install in
multiple passes.

1- Choose the custom install type. Select for
installation only the problem component (e.g. Oracle
Provider for OLE DB). The last itemName in the
installactions.log is the "problem component."
De-select all other components you're allowed to. This
will ensure that you only install the minimum number
of components possible to install the problem
component.

2- After the first session is done, now restart OUI
and start a new installation. This time you can select
the typical install type (or any other install type).

The items installed during the first pass will not be
reinstalled during the second pass.

Dave

All,
I just installed 8.1.7 Standard Edition Server/client.
it took about 1 hour or so, but very few is installed
and when I click on installed products, it says that
"There are no installed products."
There was not even a pop up saying installation
successful. What shall I do next?
