oracle6i能装在win7上吗,Oracle Forms6i Installation Error on Windows 7 64-bit

When you try installing forms you may get the error:forms60.vrf(78):OS_ERROR while getting value Path

This error has got to do with the character length of Path Environment Variable Field. For Forms6i  to happen; the character length in the field should be less than 1000. You can definitely cant keep counting to check this. So best is to temporarily cut a portion of the Environment Variable until the installation is completed.

If you are an  Professional; I need not tell you where the environment variable is; for the rest please find below instructions

Right Click My Computer – Properties

Advanced System Settings

Under Advanced Tab; Click

Under System Variables; look for variable named Path

Select Path and click Edit

Copy the contents in the Variable Value to any text editor like notepad

Copy and replace a small portion of the variable value back into the field

Start your forms6i installation and once done revert back the Variable Value from your notepad file
