HCM 9.1 + ML (Windows client)

Downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com
Choose "Peoplesoft Entreprise", plateform "Windows" (the plateform does not really matter here), then under "PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources Management System 9.1 Media Pack", then disk named as
"PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources Management System 9.1 - Revision 1"

Important note : whether the OS wordsize (32/64bits) does not matter for a client installation, it makes a big difference as soon as you install a server (Apps/Batch/PIA), only a 64bit OS is certified in that case. However, on Windows, a 32bit Oracle client is always required, either for client or server installation.

At this step you'll need the license code from (depending of the database type you are working on - I'm still puzzle why not simply ask for the database type instead of those codes) http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#HCM
The license code are same for production usage.

I never ran successfully the setup.bat under /Disk1 (never responds), I always have to use /Disk1/InstData/setup.exe instead.
NOTE (added 21-FEB-2010) : it could run after few changes in setup.bat file, please read my the previous article Peopletools installation.

The installation of Peopletools show below is on Windows Server 2008 64bit.

HCM 9.1






Specify the same path directory as your Peopletools installation



HCM 9.1 ML
This is optional of course, only if you want to use languages other than English.
Downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com
Choose "Peoplesoft Entreprise", plateform "Windows" (again, the plateform here does not matter), then under "PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources Management System 9.1 Translations Media Pack", then disk named as
" PeopleSoft Enterprise Human Resources Management System 9.1 Multi-Language"
At this step you'll need the license code from http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#Translations





Specify the same path directory than your Peopletools installation





Peopletools 8.50.06 (Windows client)

Downloaded from http://edelivery.oracle.com
Choose "Peoplesoft Entreprise", plateform "Windows" (the plateform does not really matter here), then under "PeopleSoft Enterprise - PeopleTools 8.50 Media Pack", then disk named as
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.50 Disk 1 of 3"
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.50 Disk 2 of 3
"PeopleSoft Enterprise PeopleTools 8.50 Disk 3 of 3
Note : the first two disks are kind of DVD (>1Gb).

Important note : whether the OS wordsize (32/64bits) does not matter for a client installation, it makes a big difference as soon as you install a server (Apps/Batch/PIA), only a 64bit OS is certified in that case. However, on Windows, a 32bit Oracle client is always required, either for client or server installation.

At this step you'll need the license code from (depending of the database type you are working on - I'm still puzzle why not simply ask for the database type instead of those codes) http://licensecodes.oracle.com/ent_keys_by_prod.html#PeopleTools
The license code are same for production usage.

I never ran successfully the setup.bat under /Disk1 (never responds), I always have to use /Disk1/InstData/setup.exe instead.
NOTE (added 21-FEB-2010) : to make this setup.bat running, you may change the file as following :
Original setup.bat
set installDir=%~dp0
dir %installDir%\InstData\setup.exe > nul 2>&1
if errorlevel=1 goto eof
...

After modification
set installDir=%~dp0
dir %installDir%\InstData\setup.exe > nul 2>&1
rem if errorlevel=1 goto eof
...
You could also have some issue if the Peoplesoft installer path directory contains space. Thanks to the blog reader Richard Banks, for suggesting me the following modification on the first line of setup.bat file :
Before modification
set installDir=%~dp0

After modification
set installDir="%~dp0"

The installation of Peopletools show below is on Windows Server 2008 64bit.

Peopletools 8.50.00

=> This is never responding (to make it run, see the note added earlier)... so use the following intead :






If you don't need Unicode, check non-unicode database.
You can disable some of the components below



Specify the path directory for %ORACLE_HOME%/bin




Peopletools 8.50.06
The Peopletools 8.50.06 is a patch, available on ftp://ftp.peoplesoft.com/outgoing/ptools/85006/
This is a zip file password protected, only available if you have an access to the support on https://support.oracle.com
This is an optional step for study purpose, but more than recommended for other environments.
This is the same steps as the Peopletools installation above.







Specify the same path directory as your Peopletools installation
