Checking Oracle Version

How to check which oracle software version is installed? I know we can check this in v$version but I want to know how to check the version without database. Means if you have oracle binaries sitting on one box without database then how can you tell which version it is? I can run sqlplus it show its 10.2 but I wanna to know whether its EE or SE? For example if I do (tmp sid doesn't exist):
$export ORACLE_SID=tmp
$sqlplus

Enter user-name: / as sysdba
Connected to an idle instance.
SQL> quit
Disconnected
Its not showing me whether its EE or SE, but if login thru proper sid then:
sqlplus

    how to check which version of hyperic is installed , hyperic 32 bit or 64 bit version on solaris

    If you have only a single home, the quickest/easiest way is probably just to check the properties of %ORACLE_HOME%\odp.net\bin\2.x\oracle.dataacess.dll
    Or are you asking how to check it at runtime?
    If you want to see externally what is actually loaded by an app you can use process explorer
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896653.aspx
    If you want to check it in the app itself:

  • Mismatch between COMPATIBLE Parameter and Oracle Version

    Hi,
    If the ORACLE version is say 11g but the compatible parameter in init.ora is say 9.2.0 or 8.1.7 what will be the effect on the database?
    Will the database behave as like 11g or of the lower version?
    If we alter the init.ora to the new version for compatible paremeter will it affect DB rebooting?
    This is an interview question and i could not answer.
    Please let me know the answers.

  • ACCESS 97 & ORACLE VERSION 7

    Two questions really :
    1. Is there a migration tool for any oracle version prior to 7.3.
    We're moving to 7.3 within the next two months but need to
    investigate migration before then.
    2. When performing a link table / attach table from access the
    list we get list all possibilities of users and tables blowing
    the list and taking a long time to come back. we're using
    microsofts OBDC driver on this one and attaching to oracle
    version 7.1
    null

    The two lines you quote aren't errors, they're warnings and they're pretty standard fare. If there isn't anything else in the ODBC log, then the driver isn't returning any errors. I'm not sure why Access is failing, so let's look at the client configuration first.
    - I assume you've successfully installed the 8.1.6 client on the machine with Access. Were there any errors during the install?
    - You say you're using the 8.1.6 version of the Oracle ODBC driver-- can you look to see what the last digit of the version is? If possible, I'd start by downloading the most recent 8.1.6.x ODBC driver from OTN.
    - Check which version of the MDAC you have installed (new versions & a version checker are available from Microsoft at <http://www.microsoft.com/data>.
    - The ODBC driver you download above will list which versions of the MDAC it is expected to work with. Make sure your version is one of the listed versions.

  • Install media for older Oracle version (10gR2)

    Hello,
    I need to find an install image for Oracle 10gR2 Client for AIX - I have the DB Engine and Companion disk images I just don't have the client. That version is old enough that it's no longer available from the standard Oracle Download page. I've checked Oracle Support and the Software Delivery cloud but no luck either place. Does anyone know if that is available for download anywhere?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Window 7  not support oracle version

    **Hello,**
    **when i try to install Oracle 10g (102010_win64_x64_database ) on a fresh Set up Windows 7 i get an error Message.**
    **It say's my Version is 6.1 failed and only Versions: 5.1,5.2 are valid.**
    **On the other side that the Windows 7 should be supported Oracle Version oracle10XE. (which i tried to install)**
    **Got any idea what to do, or when it will be supported? Pls inform me which one support(oracle version) windows 7 operating system ?**

    Hello,
    If you check the software supported on Windows 7 (on Microsoft site) you'll see that even Oracle 11.1
    is not compatible on it:
    [http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-7/en-us/Details.aspx?type=Software&p=Oracle%20Database%2011g%20Standard%20Edition&v=Oracle%20Corporation&uid=11&pf=0&pi=1&s=Oracle%2010g&os=32-bit]
    It's recommended to use Windows XP or Windows Vista SP1 instead (I have 10g XE and APEX 3.2.1 with
    Vista SP1 on my PC) . On Windows 7 you may have a feature so as to emulate these OS when you install
    a software.
    Hope this help.
