Hello Experts,

I am trying to install OBIEE11.1.1.9.0 On Windows Server 2012 SP2. I have been asked to do S/W only installation as Enterprise Installation was failing (Doc ID 2027617.1).

The solution was -

There is a work-around which is to implement a software-only installation and follow the instructions in section 4.2.5 - Installing Oracle Business Intelligence 11g with Your Own Java Development Kit (JDK) - of the Oracle® Fusion Middleware Installation Guide for Oracle Business Intelligence, where you need to patch Weblogic after it has been installed:

  1. Install Java 1.7.
  2. Install WebLogic Server 10.3.6.
  3. Patch WebLogic Server with Patch 16844206.
  4. Perform a software-only install of OBIEE 11.1.1.9.0.
  5. Configure OBIEE.

Hence I did the following -

1. Installed jdk1.7 (jdk-7u80-windows-x64)

2. Installed RCU 11.1.1.9.0 (rcuHome\BIN\rcu.bat)

3. Then ran wls1036_generic.jar

C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin>java -D64 -jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

The temporary extraction directory cannot be created in the default location.


I am getting the above error message. Attaching screenshot. http://www.use.com/FpC0P

Can you please help?


Thanks,

Avishek

    am not 100% sure but you can try following,

    1- Make sure ur OS user is having Admin privillages

    2- disable anti virus

    3- check disk space on ur C drive

    Just to update, wls1036_generic.jar finally ran. Problem was probably related to Virtual machine.

    We were running -

    C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin>java -D64 -jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

    Error was -

    The temporary extraction directory cannot be created in the default location.

    The temporary extraction directory is Windows temporary folder. The location is -

    %TEMP% - %USERPROFILE%\AppData\Local\Temp where %USERPROFILE% - c\:users\[acctname]

    But when running start> run > %TEMP%, I can see -

    C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2 -- And error was drive can not be accessed.

    And \2 was the problem as there is No C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2.

    To correct this error we did -

    Start > Run > Regedit > hkey_current_user > Volatile Environment

    And Found 2 underneath it.

    Selected the 2, then looked in the right pane for both TEMP & TMP.

    values were - C:\Users\ccbgso\AppData\Local\Temp\2

    right click each & click modify, removing the \2

    Clicekd on ok.

    Logged off and re logged in.

    Then again ran

    C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_80\bin>java -D64 -jar D:\SW_Installers\06.Weblogic\wls1036_generic\wls1036_generic.jar

    This time it started extraction and "Oracle Installer - Weblogic 10.3.6.0" Welcome screen appeared.

    Thanks & Regards,
