Author : JDEE1Tips 

Install JD Edwards Enterprise One 9.2 Standalone Demo (Oracle version) on your PC or server with this step by step guide

Very Important:

a. This version (according to the Oracle Docs) is designed to run on Windows 7 x64, Windows 2012 R2, Windows 8.1 Even if you install successfully in another version of Windows 64, some business functions don’t work as expected, so, stay with Windows 7 or 2012 R2 or 8.1 x64 and everything should work as expected.

b. Before you start with anything, turn OFF your Anti-virus, Firewall and Disable UAC (User Access Control). For security purposes you could enable again the Firewall and Anti-virus AFTER the installation was completed.

c. From Release E920 OC4J is removed. So first we have to install Oracle Weblogic Server using 32 bit JDK

This procedure was a result from information that I gathered from tips from another users and “trial and error” tests. Suggestions and comments are always welcome.
