I rarely do client installs. I have not downloaded upgrades on a couple of years. I have been doing other stuff and oracle supports patching page has changed.
Need to install 11.2 on HP Itanium 64 bit. I can get 11.2.0.1 from otn.oracle.com.
1. I downloaded the 11.2.0.1 client from otn. I want to see if there is an 11.2.0.2 or 11.2.0.3 patch on Oracle support. I can only find upgrades that are specifically for the databsae server. Do I use this? See below for the notes I used so far. Note: Oracle Database Upgrade Path Reference List [ID 730365.1]
Which leads me to the following patch below. However, this download is much larger than the client download on otn. It also says 'database server' and does not break out to 'database client'.So not sure if this is what I use to patch the client or not. This upgrade is also much larger than the straight client download. So not sure if this is what I use to just upgrade the client.
Patch:10404530 Description 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
Product Oracle Database Family
This upgrade seems to be for the whole database and not just for the client install.
2. Do you apply PSU's to the client? I see them listed for the 'database'. Not sure if you apply to a separate client install.
3. We use the proC pre-compiler. When I look in the instant client download section, I see a seperate section for the proC pre-compiler download. I don't see that for the full blown client. Does the regular client download include the proC pre-compiler?
I had a Windows XP client pc with Oracle Client 11-1-0-6 installed. In my absence this client was reinstalled with Windows 7. Therefore all my Registry and Start - Programs settings have been lost.
However my original 11-1-0-6 Oracle Home still exists intact on my C: drive ( i.e. C:appitjxtproduct11.1.0client_2 )
Is there any way I can use the Oracle installer to register this Client Oracle Home again ( so it appears in the Registry and in START PROGRAMS ) ? or is there a way just to get the installer tio reinstall into the client_2 directory again ?
Most of the ones I'm seeing online relate to the database, not the client. I have linux.x64_11gR2_client.zip and and trying to do runInstaller and I get up to perform prerequisite tests and it tells me that I am missing packages and that kernel parameters are wrong. I've tried to run the runfixup.sh file and get a lot of this:
./orarun.sh: 186: [: true: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 848: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 864: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 882: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 903: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1052: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1057: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1075: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1085: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1115: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1143: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1189: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 139: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 139: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1228: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1284: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1342: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1426: [: unexpected operator./orarun.sh: 1451: [: unexpected operator And many of the supposedly missing packages actually are installed. IE: make. I have make 3.81 installed but the installer insists upon make 3.80.
I have installed Oracle virtual box on windows host and have created Oracle Linux virtual machine as guest. I have installed the database server on my host machine but rest of the things(Peoplesoft peopletools etc....) on Oracle Linux guest.Now, I am trying to installed database client on guest machine which is Linux so that I can connect to DB server running on host, but having difficulties in doing so.
, I am following the installation instruction given in the doc docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24322.pdf, but when I finally run command runInstaller.sh doesn't happen anything.Actually, to install other software's I just double clicked the .sh file and it automatically started the installation process on a terminal window but when I clicked runInstaller.sh to install DB client, it didn't do anything.
Also, when I run the same command runInstaller.sh from command line after navigating to the directory where this file is present, It throws me error saying "no command found".By the way, why the steps given in doc are so complex, I wish If I could just double click runInstaller.sh just like others and it start the installation process.
I have Oracle 11g database home in my 64 bit Windows 7 machine. However, now i would like to install Oracle 10.2.0 client as well. I tried giving a separate location.
But for some reason, whenever i start the Setup and run the Administrator Type, the installation just skips without giving any errors. It just creates the inventory folder in the specified path. It goes to the Product-Specific Prerequisite Checks and exits without giving any warnings or errors.
I want to install Erwin for data modelling purpose. I am not looking at some heavy data models but a basic model. I am new to data modelling. I was given the CD to install, but I am not sure what I need.

Get the following error when installing Oracle. I have java version "1.7.0_05" and based on the log, it appears that Oracle is trying to install the binaries using an older version of java (1.5.0).

I am trying to install Oracle Database 11gR2 database on Oracle Grid 11gR2. I successfully installed Grid without errors. However, when installing the database, I got an OLR Integrity error during the prerequisit Check

I have installed Crystal reports server 2008 VI on a Windows 2008 64bit OS. I have added Crystal reports that connects to Oracle database through CMC. I then installed Oracle 10g client 32bit on the server and created and tested the required DSNs using ODBC 32bit. All the testings are successfull.
Now when I try to run my Oracle report through CMC it prompts for the parameters and when I enter them and click ok, gives me the following error: Failed to open the connection. Details: Database Vendor 12154.
I reported the above issue to SAP and they mentioned that this is a bug with Oracle and install the latest patch for my Oracle client software. My current Oracle client 10g 32bit version is: 10.2.0.1.0
I downloaded the patch 4923768 for Oracle client 10g. In the installation instructions, it mentions to apply the patch using OPatch. I already see the OPath folder in the C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1 directory, but I am not sure how to enter the command to apply the patch using OPatch. Do I have to do it using DOS window or any other tool? I don't have an Oracle admin in our company, so I am trying to figure out how to apply this patch on client workstations.
We are unable install oracle 10g client it is showing error error in writing directory c:Docume~1admin~1locals~1emporainstall2012-01-04_08-05-38PM. ensure that this directory is writable and has atlest 45MB of disk space . Installation cannot continue
I am trying to install Oracle client 11G software in AIX box. In /home/oracle, I find 7 profile files. I am not sure which profile file I am supposed to consider.
I've looked in several places, OTN, Google, various DBA forums to figure out if the way we have a client installed on a network drive is supported by Oracle - short of asking them if it's supported.
The configuration we have is a full 10g R2 client installed on a network drive, and the various environment variables (Oracle_Home, TNS_ADMIN, etc.) point to that network location for use by client machines (I'm also trying to see if the Instant client is supported on a network location as well.) We've had this set up for years which has served us well.
A co-worker remembers years ago that this set up wasn't supported, Oracle 8 or so was his thought as to what version was used then. Another coworker at an Oracle conference asked this same question and was told that it was supported, however we can't find any documentation to that effect.
Now the question arises as to whether or not using a client installed on a networked drive is a supported configuration for 10g R2 or higher, and if so, where it would be documented.
We are in the process of changing network topology and are reviewing whether this configuration is still the right thing for us or if clients should be installed locally to where they are used.
I have an Oracle server with Oracle 11g R2 and need to install its clients over several desktops.I am using 2 separate installs, but I think that this might be redundant.The 2 setups I'm using are:
- ODAC 11.2 Release 3 and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (11.2.0.2.1) - 64-bit Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) Downloads
- Is really necessary to install both of the 2 setup, or there is something I can use once instead of it?
We are in process of upgrading 10g (RAC) database to 11g(RAC), does the oracle client software must also be upgraded to 11g or the 10g client can be used for 11g database connectivity, since there are thousands of end users it is very difficult to upgrade all the clients.What is the best approach for client software?
I'm needing to set up some Oracle clients (11.2) on middle tier/application servers Looking around for a simple/repeatable way of meeting the pre-install requirements and was considering using the "validated" rpms.
The oracle-rdbms-server-11gR2-preinstall rpm i believe is really for a database server setup, so it's doing some group/kernel parameter/package setup that i suspect isn't really required for a client only setup.
Do people use those validated rpms for client only installs?Might there be a "Oracle Validated Client preinstall" rpm out there?Should I just script the package installs and user/group creation?
how to make the client requirements/install process quick and easy!
I was installing Oracle 10g Client on my PC. But after Specifying Home Details, I was unable to proceed. The installation hangs in the Loading Product Information form.
