Users must also review the Microsoft Windows Hardware Compatibility website for information on hardware servers that specifically support Windows Server 2008 (x86).

Note: Windows Server 2008 R2 is NOT currently certified with the Oracle E-

Business Suite

Required Packages and Patches

The following table lists the required packages and patches, and minimum required versions for Microsoft Windows Server (32-bit). Unless otherwise noted, the packages and patches must be installed manually.

Additional Information: Refer to your vendor's operating system installation manual or the operating system media for information on obtaining and

applying patches.

Operating System Required Patches

Windows Server 2003 SP1 or higher. See also Other Requirements.

Windows Server 2008 SP1* or higher. See also Other Requirements.

*: SP1 was included in the first version of Windows Server 2008 (x86) released by Microsoft.

JDK 6 Requirements

JDK 6 is bundled with Oracle E-Business Suite Applications version 12.1.1.

Additional Information: Check the Sun Web site for any updates to the JDK 6 requirements for Microsoft Windows Server (32-bit):

http://java.sun.com/javase/6/webnotes/install/jdk/install-windows.html

Software Requirements

The software requirements for Microsoft Windows are listed in the following sections.

Release Maintenance Tools

Users should acquire (from the appropriate vendors) and install the release maintenance tools listed in this section. Follow these guidelines when installing the target installation directories:

Do not install the tools in the Program Files directory, or any other target

directory with blank spaces in its name. Do not install the tools under the APPL_TOP.

You will encounter problems relinking if the executables are in a \bin directory under

any of the Oracle Applications product tops. Make sure each of the executables is in the PATH after installation.

Microsoft Visual Studio 2005

Install Visual C++ 2005 (also known as Visual C++ 8.0) included in Microsoft Visual

Studio 2005 on the application tier node. This software needs to be purchased from Microsoft or resellers of Microsoft products.

Visual C++ 2005 (8.0) must be installed from either the Standard or Professional editions of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005

Note: For Windows Server 2008, users are required to download and apply

the Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 and the SP1 GDIPLUS.DLL security update.

Note: Visual C++ 2008 (9.0) is not currently certified with EBS Release 12.

Note: Visual C++ 2005 is required only on the application tier.

MKS Toolkit

Versions 9.0 (Patch 3 or higher), 9.1 and 9.2 of the MKS Toolkit are currently certified for use with EBS Release 12 on Windows Server 2003. For Windows Server 2008, MKS 9.2 (Patch 2 or higher) is required. Use any of the Developer series (for

Developers, for Professional Developers, or for Enterprise Developers). You can obtain this software from the MKS Web site at:

http://www.mkssoftware.com/support/patches.asp

Note: While MKS Toolkit is recommended, Cygwin can be used in its place.

See Using Cygwin to Maintain Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12 on Windows on OracleMetaLink (Doc ID: 414992.1) for information.

Note: MKS Toolkit is required on both the application and database tiers running Windows..

GNU Make (Shareware)

Version 3.81 is required. Download and unzip patch 5897842. This patch contains the GNU Make source files and the pre-built executable file, gnumake.exe.

Copy gnumake.exe (located in make-3.81/WinRel/) to the UNIX Toolkit installation directory, for example, C:\MKS90\mksnt.

Note: This installation of GNU Make is not required when using Cygwin, since GNU Make is part of the Cygwin distribution (see

OracleMetaLink Note: 414992.1)..

Note: GNU Make (Shareware) is required only on the application tier.

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86)

If you have a multi-node Oracle Applications system and do not have Microsoft Visual

Studio 2005 on the node hosting the database tier, the Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package is required.

The Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package (x86) is available from the Microsoft Web site. Download and install the package on the database tier node. Review the information at:

http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=65127&clcid=0x409

Note: The Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable Package is not needed if you are using the full version of Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 on the database tier

node.

Other Requirements

This section describes requirements that apply to all supported Windows operating systems. Requirements for specific operating systems are listed under separate headings.

Note: The information in this section addresses the operation of the database tier and the application tier servers only. See OracleMetaLink for information about client desktop issues.

Compressed Disk Drives

Do not use compressed drives for installing any of the Oracle Applications Release 12 components. Patching and relinking will not work correctly on a disk drive that is compressed.

Total size of Environment variables

It appears that if the total size of all enviroment variables exceeds 23 KB, some tools may encounter problems. To avoid this issue, ensure that the ORACLE_BASE directory is no larger than 10 bytes (for example, "d:\oracle\").

Before Installing and Upgrading

If the Release 12.1.1 installation or upgrade is performed with the Rapid Install wizard (either a new R12 installation or upgrade from 11i to R12), ensure you have the latest Rapid Install (startCD) patch as described in Oracle Applications Release Notes,

Release 12.1.1 (OracleMetaLink Doc ID: 798258.1) before you begin your installation or upgrade.

Windows Server 2008 installations require the Rapid Install patch version 12.1.1.9 or higher.

Complete all operating system requirements, software requirements, and other requirements before installing or upgrading Oracle Applications.

Remove Concurrent Manager Service

Customers upgrading to Release 12 (12.1.1) from 11i must remove their existing Concurrent Manager Service by running the service maintanence script from their Release 11iCOMMON_TOP directory:

C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]\adsvcm.cmd

-deinstall

Shut Down Databases with Identical Oracle SID

If the database SID you enter in Rapid Install is identical to an existing database SID on the node where you are running Rapid Install, Rapid Install will identify the new SID

as conflicting with the existing database SID and fail. Perform the following before running Rapid Install to prevent this conflict:

Shut down the database and database listener with the identical Oracle SID Delete the database service by using the following command:

C:\> [ORACLE_HOME]\bin\oradim -DELETE -SID [SID]

Note: If you plan to use the original database service instead of the new

service created by Rapid Install, you must recreate the service after running Rapid Install.

Syntax and Environment Variables in User Documentation

User documentation examples use a command prompt syntax and make use of

environment variables. This syntax is used in all documentation associated with installing, upgrading, or maintaining your system. If an example makes reference to an environment variable %[var_name]%, check to see if it is set in the environment:

C:\> echo %[var_name]%

For example, if the [var_name] is GL_TOP, and echo %GL_TOP% returns a valid path name, you can use GL_TOP on the command line:

C:\> cd %GL_TOP%\admin\sql

Read-only Directory

If you run Rapid Install from a read-only media/shiphome, AutoConfig may report an error while executing the txkGenExtSecConf.pl script. Check the log file for AutoConfig errors after you finish running Rapid Install. If this error is reported, run AutoConfig from a writable directory to correct the problem.

Additional Information: See AutoConfig in Oracle Applications Maintenance Utilities.

Remote Installation

Oracle Corporation does not explicitly test or support the installation of Oracle Applications products from remote clients using desktop virtualization solutions such as Microsoft Terminal Services (also known as Remote Desktop Services). We

recommend that you install directly on the computer console, or by connecting to the console session using tools such as pcAnywhere (from Symantec), VNC (from vnc.com), or Terminal Services Client (Remote Desktop Connection) for Windows Server 2003 and 2008.

Additional Information: For instructions on using Windows 2003 Terminal Services to connect to a console session, see Microsoft Knowledge Base

Article 278845.

Installing or Upgrading

Perform the installation or upgrade following the documentation (Oracle Applications Installation Guide: Using Rapid Install, Oracle Applications Upgrade Guide: Release

11i to Release 12.1.1 or Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Maintenance Pack instructions) relevant to the specific installation or upgrade scenario described above.

Run Rapid Install and Maintenance commands in a command shell as Administrator (for Windows Server 2008 only)

Users installing Oracle E-Business Suite 12.1.1 or performing any EBS administration or maintenance work on Windows Server 2008 must use the elevated Command Prompt. Users should first click on the Windows 'Start' button and type in 'cmd.exe' in the 'Start Search' prompt. Then users should either:

(a) Right mouse click on the cmd.exe entry and choose ' Run as administrator'

OR

(b) Use the UP/DOWN keys to select the cmd.exe in the Instant search results and press CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER on the keyboard.

in order to run the Rapid Install wizard or any of the E-Business Suite maintenance work (such as AutoConfig, AD Administration, patching, etc.).

After Installing or Upgrading

Perform the following steps after installing or upgrading to Release 12.1.1 and before allowing users to access the system.

Install Required Database Rollup Patch or Reinstall '11.1.0.7 for Windows 2008' (for Windows Server 2008 only)

If you do not plan to implement RAC, you should download and apply the 11.1.0.7 Rollup Patch 10 (8416539) or higher after the upgrade/install to Release 12.1.1 .

If you plan to implement RAC, you will need to install a new 11gR1 release specifically

for Windows 2008 fromhttp://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/oracle11g/win32_11gR1_database_111070.zip.

Install Additional Patches

1. After you complete your upgrade/install to Release 12.1.1, download (from OracleMetaLink ) and apply the patch 8327888 (Perl Regression test failure)

2. Download and apply patch 8421008 to update the Patch Application Assistant (Patch Application Assistant (admsi.pl) Cannot Launch GUI)

3. Download and apply patch 8510377 for Windows Server 2008 to fix a problem in Order Management (AutoCreate Configuration Item failing) on this operating system.

Enable Advanced Planning (APS) Products

Previous R12 releases listed certain APS products as unsupported (12.0) or required additional patches (12.0.4). For release 12.1.1, users of APS products should:

1. Copy the file cplex100.dll from SHT_TOP\bin\ilog\6.2 to AU_TOP\bin

2. Fix the profile option 'MSD: OLAP Directory Alias' as stated in the OracleMetaLink Note: 296969.1 for Oracle Demand Planning

Recreate Database Service

If you deleted the database service before running Rapid Install and want to continue using the old database service, remove the new service created by Rapid Install, then recreate the old service using the following command, where [ORACLE_HOME] is the location of the old ORACLE_HOME:

C:\> [ORACLE_HOME]\bin\oradim -NEW -SID [SID]

Disable Unused Database Listener

After an upgrade using Rapid Install completes, there will be two database listener services. If you plan to use the database service created by Rapid Install, then disable the old database listener service. If you plan to use the old database service, then disable the database listener service created by Rapid Install.

Use SCM (Service Control Manager) to set the unused database listener to "disabled."

Disable Obsoleted or Unused Services

After you complete the upgrade to Release 12.1.1, a number of services remain

enabled on your system. Use the Service Control Manager to disable the following services or use the supplied release 11i scripts to remove the service:

Service Command

Oracle Apache Server C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]/adsvrapc.cmd -disable

Oracle Reports Server C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]/adsvrep.cmd -disable

Oracle Forms Server C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]/adsvfrm.cmd -disable

Oracle Metrics Client C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]/adsvfmc.cmd -disable

Oracle Metrics Server C:\>%COMMON_TOP%\admin\install\[CONTEXT_NAME]/adsvfms.cmd -disable

Oracle Fulfillment Server Manually disable

OracleVISOra806_2TNSListener80APPS Manually disable

Windows Services

If the concurrent manager service is running on the same node as the database, it

may not start automatically after a restart. If that happens, make sure that the database service (ORACLEService[SID]) is running and the TNS listener (ORACLE[SID]_[DB_VERS]_RDBMSTNSListener[SID]) has started. Then, use the Service Control Panel to start the concurrent manager.

There are a number of technology stack services created by Rapid Install that are not currently used by Oracle Applications. They are set to start manually. There is no need to start these services or to change them to start automatically.

Unsupported Products

The following products are currently not supported on the corresponding Windows operating system versions:

Product Operating System

Oracle Field Service/Handheld Windows 2003, Windows

2008

Oracle Field Service/Laptop Windows 2003, Windows 2008

Known Issues

The following are known issues for this release on Windows Server 2003 and 2008:

Network Disks

Network disks must be configured so that the operating system sees them as local

disks (using technologies such as iSCSI). If they are seen as network disks by the operating system, the Oracle E-Business Suite will not function properly. Currently, the use of Microsoft's Services for Unix-based Applications (SUA) to map network drives is not supported.

To check if a disk is seen as a local disk by the OS, do one of the following:

go to "My Computer", right mouse click on the drive in question, and select 'Properties'. In this window, the 'Type' should say 'Local Disk'

go to "Disk Management" and verify that the drive is listed
