Install Oracle 11g client on Windows 7

Hi,
I am getting an error while installing Oracle 11g R1 client(11.1.0.7.0) on Windows 7 x32.
Error: OUI-18001: The operating system 'Windows Vista Version 6.1' is not supported.
Recommendation : install the recommended service pack.

Only for Oracle 10g client installation on win 7 32, 64 bit
To get going with oracle on windows 7 64-bit. You can install oracle 10g 32 which you use for windows XP. Its unusal but successful. Install 10G it will get installed on program files x86. Then open tnsnames.ora files which will be either in program files x86/oracle/....search or it will be in c:\oracle...write the correct server name in tnsnames and in PB while doing the configuration..write tns:servername in the server textbox. I did that and it got connected...incase u need any help let me know my email address is [email protected]
cheers

Unable to install Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 8

Hi All,
I know this is a familiar post with quite a few users facing problems while trying to install Oracle 11g R2 on Windows 8 platform. Subsequently, there have been resolutions provided - Hyperion Error of the Day: Oracle Database 11g Installer Disappears After Prerequisite Checks.
I am facing a similar problem - the installation window disappears after I select the "Select Class Option" as desktop. I tried following the steps which have been advised, but to no success. I would like to make a point here - The Operating System that I use is - Windows 8 Single Language, which is different from Windows 8 Enterprise Edition. Plus, the java I use is:
java version "1.7.0_45"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_45-b18)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 24.45-b08, mixed mode, sharing)
Kindly Help.
With regards
Sriram

Hi,
The solution provided in this link worked. Hyperion Error of the Day: Oracle Database 11g Installer Disappears After Prerequisite Checks
Even though I installed java in c:\java, I got the same error, but calling setup.exe from command prompt and setting the jreLoc path has worked.
Eg: on command prompt, I gave below command and it worked,
D:\downloads\database>setup -jreLoc "C:\Java\jdk1.7.0_51"
D:\downloads\database -> is path setup.exe location
Thanks,
Srikanth

Best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on Windows Server 2008 r2

Dear all,
May I know what is the best practice for install oracle 11g r2 on windows server 2008 r2. Should I create a special account for windows for the oracle database installation? What permission should I grant to the folders where Oracle installed and the database related files located (datafiles, controlfiles, etc.)
Just grant Full for Administrators and System and remove permissions for all others accounts?
Also how should I configure windows firewall to allow client connect to the database.
Thanks for your help.

How to remove Oracle 11g client from Windows 7 64-bit workstation.

When the Oracle 11g client was installed on a Windows 7 64-bit workstation, it was mistakenly installed as "Administrator".
We do not wish to do this; instead we want to install this client as a user with Administrator privileges.
PLEASE NOTE THE DIFFERENCE BEFORE REPLYING TO THIS THREAD!!!!!!!!
When I try to install the client, I get a message sending me to this directory:
F:\app\Administrator
I do not know why this message is produced; the directory it refers to DOES NOT EXIST.
My suspicion is that there extraneous entries in the registry which have not been removed; the obvious ones such as HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE have been deleted.
What I believe I need is a COMPLETE list of entries placed in the registry upon installation of the Oracle client.
The obvious problem is that the Uninstall feature of Oracle client does NOT FULLY remove all of the above entries.
As a side note, the Oracle client software installation needs to be revamped to detect situations such as this and provide a course of corrective actions.

I've not done it yet with 11g, but prior editions, there are 3 things that have to be done to eradicate an oracle client installation from Windows, after running uninstaller
1) delete the registry key HKLM\software\oracle
2) delete the ORACLE_HOME directory from the file system
3) delete c:\Program Files\oracle

Has anyone tried to install Oracle 11g R1 on Windows 7?

I'm planning to install Oracle 11g R1 (or R2) on Windows 7 but I don't see Windows 7 as one of the supported OS.

During installtion I got error

Problem: Oracle Database 11g is not certified on the current operating system.
Recommendation: Make sure you are installing the software on the correct platform.

then I check the boxes(user defined)
Installation is done.
After installation I got tns listener error
then I tried these steps to fix the error and its working fine
On cmd prompt
set ORACLE_HOME=c:\oracle\ora11g
path=c:oracle\ora11g\bin;(path should contain bin folder)
set ORACLE_SID=orcl
set system environment variables also
restart pc
tnsping orcl
Add one line to the WINDOWS/SYSTEM32/DRIVERS/ETC/HOSTS FILE

Latest Oracle 11g Client for Windows

I was able to download base Oracle 11g Client from
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle11g/111060_win32soft.html
Does anybody knows if this latest what they have for 11g ? Did Oracle release any patchset on top of that?

Patch 11.1.0.7.0 is available for download from metalink. Patch number is 6890831. Of course, you would need to use your metalink login credentials for this download.

Oracle 11g client for Windows 8 - 64bit exists impromptu without error msg

HI all.
I just got a new laptop and its running Windows 8 Pro 64 bit os. I downloaded Oracle Client 11g 64bit from the oracle website. After clicking the setup.exe installer a msg box pops up saying '[INS -13003] Environment does not meet the requirement' with no further information. Yet i go ahead and continue becos i was told it was a general error and should be ignored.
After that, the GUI comes up. I select Administrator (or any) installation type, the language, specify my installation location but on performing prerequisite check, it exists without error. Any help?

The 12c client install is documented at Contents
- it is a pretty straightforward process once you have downloaded the software. Did you try to install the full client or the Instant Client ?
11.2.0.1 install may or may not complete correctly - if it does, there is no guarantee that it will function as expected

Oracle 11g Client for Windows Server 2008 Relase2 Operating Stystem

Hi,
I am having a server with Operating System as Windows Server 2008 R2 version 64 - bit.
I am using SSRS 2008 which is 64 bit, for retreiving the data from Oracle (which is 11g - 32 bit), I am unable to create data source for Oracle.
I had installed ODAC Components of Oracle 11.1.0.7.20 on the server, but still I am getting the following error:
"The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine."
Does any one know how to install Oracle Client 11g on Windows Server 2008 R2 Operating system?

Helios,
It is wonderful that you are polite and encouraging to new people.
While you are responding, could you explicitly direct people to use the correct forum. This has at least 2 benefits:
1) Ensures that the person gets the widest possible amount of assistance;
2) Ensures that the rest of us do not need to waste time on improperly placed questions.
I suggest 'explicitly' since some people do not get the hint, and keep returning to the original thread.
This thread belongs in 'Database - General' or 'Database - Install'.

Steps to Install oracle 11g client 32 Bit,64 Bit in a single server

Hi,
I have a requirement to Install Both "Oracle Client 11.2.0.2 Win32" and "Oracle Client 11.2.0.2 Win64" on a single server.
Please provide the step by step instruction for the above requirement.
Environment
Windows Server 2008 R2 64Bit.
Thanks
Sambit

Just use separate base directories e.g.
c:\32bit\oracle and
c:\64bit\oracle
Install the 32-bit client first, then the 64-bit client. The order should not matter.
