Oracle 11g r2 Installation Error in Windows

Oracle 11g r2 installation error in windows

I downloaded the files from OTN with the following names:

  • win64_11gR2_database_1of2.zip
    and
  • win64_11gR2_database_2of2.zip 
Extracted both into the SAME directory with these names,

C:\Oracle\Disk1 and
C:\Oracle\Disk2

Started the installation from C:\Oracle\Disk1\database\setup.exe

And the Installation failed due to file not found of

{C:\app\11g\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oc4j\j2ee\oc4j_applications\WFMLRSVCApp.ear and some other files too}.

I went through the http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e10843/toc.htm.

But there was nothing which mentioned where or how to rename the directories.All my downloaded files were in the same directory but still I was facing the problem. As both zip files contained database folder so I couldn't override the files. I solved the file not found issue by coping all the folders under "C:\Oracle\Disk2\database\stage\Components" to
"C:\Oracle\Disk1\database\stage\Components".

After restarting the installation it went like a charm and without any issues.
