Configuring Oracle Multimedia on Windows

Use this procedure to configure Oracle Multimedia.

If you are creating and configuring a database manually, then you can configure Oracle Multimedia as follows:

  1. Start SQL*Plus:
    C:\> sqlplus /NOLOG
    
  2. Connect to Oracle Database with account SYSDBA:
    SQL> CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
    
  3. Start the database (if necessary):
    SQL> STARTUP
    
  4. Run the script ordinst.sql:
    SQL> ORACLE_HOME\ord\admin\ordinst.sql SYSAUX SYSAUX
    
  5. Run the script iminst.sql:
    SQL> ORACLE_HOME\ord\im\admin\catim.sql
    
  6. Exit SQL*Plus:
    SQL> EXIT
    

    Note:

    If you manually copy your Oracle8i listener.ora and tnsnames.ora files into your Oracle Database network directory, then you must modify network configuration files tnsnames.ora and listener.ora on your server to enable calls to work and Oracle Multimedia to function properly.
