Oracle database creation issue in P6.1 when oracle is running on Windows Server 2008

Posted Wed, 05/27/2009 - 14:32 by admin

Below is the screenshot of the error I get when trying to create the db. It seems like the GUI is unable to connect to the Oracle database. What mechanism is it using? I tried the install on my own desktop and I get past this point no problem. When I try to install on our app server, I get the error. Yet I’m able to TNSPING the db from app server. I can even login using SQL*Plus. We do not have firewall between these 2 servers.

Does P6 support MS SQL Server 2008?

Primavera does not offically support MS SQL 2008 yet, at least Primavara has stated that P6.2 does not support MS SQL 2008.

I ran many tests against MS SQL Server 2008 running on Windows Server 2008, I found P6.0, P6.1 and P6.2 have no problems connecting to MS SQL Server 2008 if P6 Client is runnning on Windows XP/Vista/Windows Server 2003 (32bit or 64bit). The only exception is that  if you run P6 Client in Windows Server 2008, the dbexpsda.dll and dbexpsda30.dll file should be version 4.25.0.8 or higher.

Does P6 support MS SQL Server 2000?

P6.0 does support MS SQL Server 2000.  But since P6.1 or later, Primavera does not run on MS SQL 2000 any longer.  You will have to upgrade to MS SQL 2005.
