How to update Oracle Client

Hey,
I downloaded and installed the Oracle Client Version 10.2.0.1 on Windows x86
Now I would like to update this oracle client, but how ?
I installed the software to
C:\oracle\client
Now I downloaded Patchset 3 (10.2.0.4)
But I can´t install this patchset, because I can´t select the folder c:\oracle\client --> OUI-10136: OracleHome already exists
But thats the home I need to update, right ?
How to update the oracle client software ?
Is there any full package to download for version 10.2.0.4 ?

Absolut weird.
I can´t use the drop down menu.
It looks like disabled.
But acutually you can (and have to) click on the little arrow, pick the default value and then the installation works.
Thanks a lot
´
Christian

    (ps. I have replaced ojdbc5_g.jar, ojdbc5.jar, ojdbc6_g.jar, ojdbc6_g.jar in $ORACLE/jdbc, but it did'nt work. )
    *2.My Oracle version is 11.1.0.6.0, will it be OK if only update the JDBC driver?*

    Ummm .... client license?
    All license questions should be addressed to Oracle.  I believe what you'll find is that the license for client installation is free.  What you pay to license and support is the rdbms (server) software.
    But all licensing questions should be addressed directly to Oracle.  A license agreement is a legal issue, and this forum will have no standing in court.

  • How to use Oracle Client

    Dear Buddies,
    To the best of my knowledge I understand that Oracle Client is a minimal package to get connected to the Oracle Server in order to access the database. Corrrect me if I am wrong.
    I have installed it based on the steps given in http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/oci/instantclient/index.html
    and also other sites.
    How do I start using it? If SQL Plus, all I have to do is launch the SQL Plus, get connected and start using the database. How should I use this Instant Client? Please guide me. Is it compulsary to use it with SQL Plus? or some other tools?
    I also tried the methods mentioned in this pdf http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/oraclenet/files/OracleNetServices_NetEasyConnect.pdf
    but it doesn't help me as well.
    Expecting your support and reply.
    Thanking you in advance.

    You need a client program that uses Oracle client to connect to an Oracle Database.
    One such program is "sqlplus", it is the command line interface.
    Its usage is described extensively in
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/toc.htm
    See specifically
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14357/ch3.htm#sthref610
    for how to connect to a database.

  • How to uninstall oracle client automatically

    Hello,

    OUI does it well using the graphical mode, but I need to find how to do it automatically...
    I found this [http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/B13804_02/deinstall.htm] but it looks "heavy"
    Otherwise, I saw that OUI has these options :
    -deinstall
    -removeallfiles
    -nowarningremovefile
    but i don't how to use them...
    Can anyone help me?
    Thanks

    Hi,

    No it works well.

  • How to install oracle client on linux_x86_64 on red hat 5

    Hi, installing the oracle client on a linux server is new to me as I have always installed the client on windows servers. I have been looking on the OTN site for just the client download but I do not see one and also I have been looking through the installion guide for the 10gr2 database on x86_64 but there is no mention of a client install just speaks to install the database software?
    Is there a separate install for just the client or do I have to install the entire rdbms with no database?
    Thanks in advance.

    HI, I actually was following that exact document and I had downloaded from the link also to get the binaries...The problem I am running into is that when I run the installer it is after the first screen it is throwing an OUI-10203 the specified response file does not exists? It appears as though the installer thinks I am attempting to run an automated installation? Not sure why it is doing this I am clearly trying to run this interactively?
    Any thoughts.

    The problem is Oracle usually don't provide direct Oracle Client download except for Windows. You need to download the Server installation file and install the client piece. The download files are rather large.
    and is there any other tool which i can install instead of oracle client?It depends on what you plan to do with Oracle client and why you need it.
    On alternative is instance client, it has direct download for all supported platform.

  • Any docs on HOW TO INSTALL ORACLE CLIENT ON OBIEE SERVER?`

    Thanks...

    Generally speaking the way to installing Oracle Client does not depend directly on the product that is going to use it
    If some product requires some specific Oracle Client versions or Oracle Client configurations you should find this information in the product documentation (i.e OBIEE Server) and not in Oracle Client documentation.
    You can find Oracle Client documentation (named "Database Client") in the Installation sections of tahiti.oracle.com. For example for 11.2: http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/portal.portal_db?selected=11&frame=#microsoft_windows_installation_guides.
