Much to my embarrassment I find myself in the position of asking some
kind soul to read the FM.

I am looking at implementing 64 bit oracle on windows 2003 server. We
have a requirement for Workflow server which is not included in
10.2.0.1. As I don't have access to Metalink and for some reason I
can't get a response from Oracle, I can't verify if Workflow server
has been included in later releases.

If someone has a few minutes to spare and has access to the latest
10.2 Oracle Database Companion CD Installation Guide for Microsoft
Windows (x64) could you please let me know if Workflow server appears
on the contents page.

My apologies for the nature of this request but I've been trying
without success to get an answer from Oracle for the last two weeks.

Regards,
Anthony Hogan

In stead of having someone read the FM for you, you could download it from
technet at
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/or..._companion.zip
and read document b15680.pdf (read the FPDF so to say)

But, by the way, workflow is included but not supported on Windows XP and
Windows 2003

For your info: 10.0.3 (Vista) doesn't support Workflow either....

Thanks for your reply Shakespeare - been there done that!

The "included but not supported" list is not quite accurate: Generic
connectivity and the HTTP server (to name but two) are definitely not
included.

Quibbles on documentation aside, my question concerned documentation
on releases later than 10.2.0.1 which I do not have access to. Oracle
supports workflow server on other 64 bit platforms (Linux, Solaris,
Itanium...) as of 10.2.0.1. I need to know if windows x64 has been
added to the list post 10.2.0.1.

I stand corrected! I just took the LATEST version on Technet. Technet does
not report any newer (downloadable) version for Win 64 (yet). Checked
edelivery as well. 10.2.0.1 seems to be the latest version over there as
well.

What's in a version....

OTN only ever has the base versions of a release, in this case 10.2.0.1.
10.2.0.3 is only available as a patch to 10.2.0.1 and to get the patch,
you need a support contract and access to metalink.

Not true.

It has had 9.2.0.4 (for Linux for sure - had a nasty experience with
that one), and currently, I see:
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3) for Vista New! (4-May-07)
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for HP OpenVMS Alpha
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for OpenVMS Itanium
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for Solaris x86
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for HP Tru64 UNIX
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for z/Linux
Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.2) for z/OS (OS/390)

Some version descriptions clipped for formatting purposes.
I did not bother to check other products, just database

Ok I'll rephrase it, the base release per platform. Sometimes the base
release for a relatively unusual or new platform is not the absolute
base.

It would be interesting to see if 10.2.0.3 for Vista, is the same as
patched 10.2.0.3 for windows generally. I suspect it is and they didn't
bother to go back and certify 10.2.0.1.

I finally got a response from Oracle:
Workflow server is not certified on Windows 2003 64bit.

Thanks to all who replied.
