10g Client Silent Install

When installing the Oracle 10g Client using the silent method, I am getting a box requiring the user to press Enter to complete the install. Does anyone know how to get around this and require no user intervention at all?

Anyone know???

SAP BPC 7.5 Client, Silent install but with progress bar, can it be done?

Hi All,
I need to uninstall the BPC 7 Client and then deploy 7.5 to around 250 users accross the country.
We have SCCM (SMS) in place so will be using that.
I have the uninstall of 7 sorted and I have the response file etc sorted for the silent install of 7.5 and the install runs, silently, no issue.
Is there a way though that one can "turn on" the progress bar during the install? So that users dont shutdown or disconnect in the 15min it takes the install to run.
By way of example, in the SAP Business objects enterprise client on can configure the Silent install so that although it never prompts the user for a reponse there is a progress bar that runs, indicating that there is an install in progress.
Thanks in advance,
Bryan

Hi Sebastian,
No worries, I am using a pop up countdown so the users have some idea on progress. Would love to know why the install runs for over 15min.
In the above case the uninstall was easy as we had deployed using MS AppV so it was just a case of deleting the advert in SCCM and the application was pulled from the users desktops.
For 7.5 I am using a vbscript with following to uninstall:
The install string pulled from the clients registry uninstall folder:
RunCommand Chr(34) & "C:\Program Files\InstallShield Installation Information\{EC8753EF-EE78-48B5-A4D0-FBBD237B5D53}\setup.exe" & Chr(34) & " -runfromtemp -l0x0009UNINSTALL -removeonly"
We create a custom link, so this deletes it.
DeleteFile "c:\Users\Public\Desktop\SAP BPC 7.5.lnk"
You should be able to create something similar for 7.0 & 7.1
Hope that helps,
Bryan

On Windows 2003 64-bit, Which 10g Client to Install ?

hello again,
I have a server with the Windows 2003 Enterprise 64-bit operating system.
I need to install Oracle 10g Enterprise onto the server.
I noticed there are 2 install folders for the 10g Client R2 - one is R2 x32 and the other is R2 x64. I want to be sure I install the best, most problem-free version of the client.
Are there any known issues with using the 64-bit client? Sorry for the lame question - I googled and didn't find much.
Thanks, John

That's correct. And the primary application that will be installed is 32-bit. But I don't think it needs to interact with the client tools at all.
We are upgrading the server from 32 bit to 64, the OS and the database from 9i Enterprise 32 bit to 10g Enterprise.
I may just install the 32 bit client to avoid any problems.
Thanks, John

Doc for 10g client silent installation

any documentation for 10g client installation (silent -installation)
Thanks
Ramya

<sigh>
Go to the traditional place for documentation, either http://docs.oracle.com or http://tahiti.oracle.com
Get to the 10gR2 documentaiton page. (For your convenience, it is http://www.oracle.com/pls/db102/homepage)
Click on the Installation tab at the top of the page to get to the Installation documentation.
Look for the Client Installation Guide for your operating system.
Use your browser to search for 'silent' - that will be in Appendix A
Read the material there.
Anything else?

[Oracle8.1 Client] Silent install

Hye,
Trying to make a silent install with Oracle8.1 Client, the goal is to build an MSI package who installs client automatically. I think my clientcustom.rsp is good, but when I launch the command :
C:\Program Files\Oracle\oui\install>setup.exe -responseFile "C:\Response\oracle.swd.Custom.rsp" -silent
There is no effect. If I remove silent option, OUI launchs, but dont take in order parameters who are in custom.rsp...
Other thing, to make a silent install install of Oracle8.1, it is obligatory to have OUI installed on computer ?
The other problem is I have to integrate tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora in installation.
So what would be the best solution for realize that ? Thanks in advance.

Thanks in advance.
Anyway I see a strange thing :
- I launch the command C:\Program Files\Oracle\oui\install>setup.exe -record -DestinationFile "C:\Response\oracle.rsp" . OUI launch correctly.
- But after install, I don't see oracle.rsp file created.
- In Silent mode, I launch "C:\Program Files\Oracle\oui\install>setup.exe -responsefile C:\clientminiresponse.
rsp"
- In Logs, I see "Installation use oracle.rsp file".
- But the Installer don't use values which are in oracle.rsp file. It seems that it takes in order only oraparam.ini.

Oracle 10g Client R2 Install

Hi,
I have recently installed the Oracle 10g Database release 2 and now want to install the client. I would like to install the client on the same pc as one of my standard users so I can write scripts(using sqlplus) and run them as this user, but the original oracle home was installed as oracle:oinstall. How should I proceed?
Thanks,
Chris.

You don't need client for this. You could use binaries from existing database installation.
Just setup the enviroment (ORACLE_HOME, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and other oracle variables except ORACLE_SID) and PATH for other user and it is done.

Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g Client

following are the steps tht i followed:

Oracle 10g client on Domain

We have some problems with a Oracle 10g client instalation:
We installed in a Windows 7 Pro OS on Domain, using an Admin User, Oracle 10g Client. If I use that user, I can connect to DB. If I change the user for a restricted one, I can't.
Sample: Using the restricted user, I try to run SQL Plus for Windows; it starts, but after I fill the User, Pass and DB information, SQLPlus closes without showing any error or warning. In the same way, I can't run any program using the Client.
If I change the privileges for that user to Administrator in the Active Directory, all works without problems (without any change in the configuration)
Any idea about the permisions I should give to the user without giving Admin privileges.
Thank you
Rafael B.

Welcome to the forums !
Pl indicate which version of 10g client was installed. The only version of 10g that is certified on Win 7 is 10.2.0.5. Other versions may or may not work as advertised.

Using 10g client across network

I have my 10g database installed on a SuSE 10.0 box and everything seems to work as expected there. I configured the database to permit remote access to the web administration interface, then opened the firewall to permit http on port 8080. I can now access the web administration interface from a Windows XP Pro box.
I have installed only the client software on the XP box and I would like to connect to the database on the SuSE box with SQL*Plus. I am so far frustrated, and puzzled. The 10g client-only install didn't put the tnsnames.ora file on the XP box, or any of the other usual configuration files I came to know and love from versions 7 and 8i. Also, none of the usual environment variables were created during the install on either the SuSE or the WinXP boxes.
Can anyone point me to resources explaining this? None of the Oracle-supplied docs seem to mention any of this.
Thanks.

Is it possible?Why would you even consider doing this? It's like saying "+I have a Lightning F-40 bicycle and GSX R1300 Hayabusa Turbo superbike. I would like to fit my bicycle wheels on the superbike+".
Surely that does not make any sense at all?

Auto / Silent install of Essbase 6.1.4.0 (Client)

Does anyone know/have the switch(es) for an auto or silent install (client side) for Excel Essbase Add-in version 6.1.4.0?Thank you,Blake

Hi,Install Shield has a silent option that allows to record the options that have to be selected by the user.You first have to launch the install with a record a setup.iss file by launcinh setup.exe /r (or -r)Then setup.exe /f1 with the location and name of the iss file will do the trick.Consult installshield.com knowldege base for more information (perform a search on setup.iss).Please be aware that depending on the OS the iss file may need to be different.EricPartake Consulting

What is the official procedure to install a 10g-Client on SLES10

Hi,
we are having a server running SuSE SLES10 and we need to have it access a 10g database.
We had a look at the certification-matrix and found that the combination
SLES10/10g-Client is supported by Oracle.
We know this now, but the installer obviously does not:
snip
# /home/oraclient/client/runInstaller
Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
Checking installer requirements...
Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4,
UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
Failed <<<<
Exiting Oracle Universal Installer, log for this session can be found at
snip
Although I found a way to circumvent the problem (I edited /etc/SuSE-release before installation, changed it back after inst.) - I am eager to know whether anyone
can point me out any "official" Oracle-Page describing how to install.
The installation guide does not help. I searched the forum and found you can
start the installer with -nosysprereqs.
But where can I find official information how to install? The problem is that I have to document everything I do, and this documentation is monitored closely, so I do not want to use any tricks that are NOT explained in a whitepaper or something similar. I
have to show that what I did is supported.
Any help welcome
Arno

You are right, installation guides (and corresponding check routines) are sometimes not up-to-date. Always check Release Notes for newer (and official) statements:

I can't install Oracle 10g Client in x86-64(Intel EM64T)

Dear All,
Recently, I tried to install the Oracle 10g client in Redhat Enterprise Linux 4.0 with x86-64 (Intel EM64T) platform. As I know,that is either Oracle 9i or Oracle 10g has been certified to Redhat AS 3.0 operating system.
How can I install Oracle 10g normally under all x86-64 platforms? Or, When does Oracle to release out the patch for all x86-64 versions?

Please reffer to Installation section.
Database Installation

Linking in progress doesn't respond during silent install of oracle db 10g

I performed all required settings for installing oracle database 10g on my remote server (redhat), I set the values of the response file for a silent install of enterprise edition.
The installation works fine till the prompt says --- Linking in progress .
then it takes a very long time without saying anything else, i checked /oraInventory for the log files, but there is no log for the silent install, which might mean that there is no error reported and that the connection or the shell application I am using (putty) has lost connection or something like that.
I tried re-installation many times, but it still stops at the same step, the putty status bar says inactive later on, i then realize that there is no connection or some other failure.
What can I do to fix this?

you are welcome, unfortunately you didn't mark this thread as a question so no stars for me .
Nervermind, herewith the feedback on your questions :
Should I make a dbca.rsp ? how would I pass it to my install command line?
In silent mode, DBCA uses values that you specify in the response file or as command-line options to create a database. DBCA does not display any screens or information while it creates the database. It logs all messages (including information, errors, and warnings) in a log file.
From the command line, enter the following command to see all of the DBCA options that are available when you use the silent mode:
$ @ora_root:[bin]dbca.com -help

I tried: ps -efd | grep -i run , alot of process appeared, how would I know if the installer is among them?
try to grep with a much longer name i.e :
ps -efd | grep -i runinstaller
What is fuser * in the log directory ? is this a file I should create or what?
No fuser is a unix/linux command that enable you to identify processes using a file or file structure. The fuser utility displays the process IDs of the processes that are using the files specified as arguments.
So if the runinstaller still active you will see i.e.
fuser silentInstall2008-08-08_10-50-48AM.log
silentInstall2008-08-08_10-50-48AM.log: 14506o
14506 is your process ID
Hope this helps you!

Oracle 10G client Install on Windows

We recently had our Oracle client upgraded from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10G. Now when we sign into the Oracle Enterprise Manager Console, select a user schema and right click on a table to View/Edit Contents, the records display but when i select a record and try to right click to Add Row / Delete all i get is a solid gray bar, so i can't delete the record. I am thinking this may be a permission problem of how the client was installed, but have no idea where to start. Any help from anyone will be greatly appreciated.
