Hi Gurus

I am a learner of Oracle Apps and trying to install Oracle Apps 11i on desktop running Win XP. I have oracle media pack 11i for win xp. So very hopeful that I can install it. I have 2Gig memory and 300 Gig HD on XP box so I think It should be fine as far as Hardware is concern. But I am not sure about the additional software or patches I have to install before I start the Oracle Apps Installation. Please guide me what all steps I have to follow for successful installation. By the way I ran the installation once and failed after staging and installation started and after about 1 hour of setup I got message installation failed but I dont know exact error message.

Hi
U need to install some third part tools as well.They are
1)Microsoft VC
2)JDK
3)MKS Toolkit
4)Gnu Make
What about the status of pre installation checks.

Cool, Let me do that see what happens. One pre_install check failed "GNUmake not found". Rest every thing passed and I have not installed Microsoft VC , MKS Toolkit either. I have MS VC++ but what is this MKS Toolkit and how can I get it . It is freeware ?

Thanks Atif for your help. Have you done installation on Win before ?

Hi
I dont think MKS toolkit is freeware u can check it on its website.Have u gone through Installation guide present in the documentation CD.Under Software Requirements section it is mentioned that which third part tools u need to install on Windows.
Yes I have done installation on windows before.
