Install Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 on MS Windows

In this article i will explain how to install Oracle EBS R12 in MS Windows. I am going to explain two methods 1) EBS R12 on Windows 2003 Server
2) EBS R12 on Windows XP.
I will strongly  recommend to install R12 on Windows 2003 server. It is more reliable and will provide you maximum functionality.

Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 on Windows 2003 Server.

- MKS Tool Kit   licenced  download from http://webstore.mkssoftware.com
- Visual C++ 8.0 licenced (Included in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005)

Installation Steps:
1) Install Windows 2003 Server with SP2
Make sure you have installed Network driver successfully.
2) Set ‘Computer Name’ .



- Right click on ‘My Computer’ > Properties > ‘Computer Name’ > Change
- Set ‘Computer Name’ to r12   (you can other give any name)



3) Set the domain
- Click on More
- Set a ‘Primary DNS Suffix of this Computer’ to   oracle.com    you can choose any other name (myoreacle.com)


 

4) Add a new entry in C:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts as follows:



replace localhost  with   r12.oracle.com

5) From the command prompt, make sure you can do the following:  
        C:\> ping   r12.oracle.com

6) Install Visual C++ 8.0 (Which is included in Microsoft Visual Studio 2005) in ‘C:\VS8′  Directory name should not contain spaces

7) Download ‘MKS toolkit’ and install in c:\mksnt\

8- Copy  link.exe  ,   cl.exe  from  c:\vs8\vs\bin to c:\mksnt\mksnt\

Stage Area (c:\stage12) requires a 32 GB hard disk space.  Make sure stage12 name should not contain spaces and should have read/write permissions.
Extract the zip files which have been downloaded from (http://edelivery.oracle.com). Nothing special to do since the extracted files will create the stage area directory structure by itself. You should see the following structure under ‘C:\stage12′ once you are done with the files extraction: Make sure there should not be spaces stage directory name.
- startCD
- oraAppDB
- oraApps
