Installing OBIEE 11.1.1.9 on windows 7

Question

I have installed  obiee 11.1.1.7  32 bit on Windows xp several times without any problem. Now I am trying to install obiee 11.1.1.9 on Windows 7 64 bit and I downloaded the files from Oracle OTN.

I installed the loopback adapter

Edit hosts file as localhost 10.10.10.10 (I am able to ping localhost)

Installed jre-7u80-windows-x64

Installed Oracle database 12c

When I try to install rcu for Windows 64 bit (downloaded from Oracle OTN) and on the Database Connection page I enter

Machine Name = localhost

Port = 1521

User = sys

I get an error to enter correct Machine Name or Port Number

My Machine Name and Port Number is correct. I can access database via sql plus (sql developer is not working though)

Can you please tell me why I am getting error while installing rcu?

Do you have any documentation of installing obiee 11.1.1.9?

Note: When I install database I did not choose it as Container database.

I even tried Uninstalling Oracle 12c database and then installing Oracle 11g database but still getting error while installing rcu.

Please reply to me.

Thanks,

I use "sys" as the user name and "Admin123" as password during installation of rcu and it is the same password that I use while installing oracle database. Do you have any other idea?

Thanks.

Hi,

I remember from previous installations that it was a problem continue with installation when username and password were the same.

Try to run rcu using passwords different from the usernames.
