It sounds though like an issue with Windows XP not being supported as a platform for the server element of Hyperion Planning, did you check the list of supported platforms before installing it? You may need to install it on Windows Server 2000 or 2003 instead. regards, Mark Hi Pravi,

Installation was done successfully for all the products, except Hyperion Planning. When I was trying to install Planning on my desktop, I found the below message.

Only Planning Client will be installed on Windows XP.

I did proceed to install it. After some point of time, I got the below message.

Q: What is this error about and how to resolve it?

Also, HspJsHome.Properties file is not generated in the specified path.

Q: Does it necessary to have Windows 2000 Server SP1 OS?
Q: I did not make use of any License file provided by Oracle? Does it cause any problem?

When I was trying to create an application from planning desktop client, I was getting the below error.

EIS and EAS were at 9.3, the rest of the stack was at 9.3.1, which is what caused the problems when I tried to install these two tools. All of the products are now on edelivery.oracle.com at 9.3.1 and they all install fine now. My user management console opens up fine, actually - but I'm using IE6.0 rather than 7.0. regards, Mark @Rajesh – bear in mind with this tutorial that the problems I encountered were, in hindsight, down to the wrong versions of EIS and EAS being uploaded to edelivery.oracle.com at the time.

Thanks for this "tutorial". Just wanted to bring to your notice a small glitch I had. Just after installing shared services and configuring it with MySql and Tomcat on my Windows XP laptop, I tried to open user management console from MS Internet explorer. The popup window never finished loading and I was stumped. I tried to see if there were any known issues with the installation process but I couldn't find any. After repeated attempts, I just tried Firefox with the same configuration and it worked like a charm. Is there any plugin/setting that needs to modfied in Internet Explorer?? BTW, IE is version 7.0 and firefox is 2.0. Now off to the rest of the installation. I was installing Sys 9 on my laptop and I am following your instructions pretty much word to word.
