Installing 2 MI-Clients on 1 device(WIN32)

Hello,
i want to connect from my development laptop to different MI-Servers(Dev,Prod). Is there any possibility to install 2 MI Clients on 1 Laptop device?
Running the setup again seems not be possible,also coping the existing MI-folder and changing the connection settings is not possible(Client always overwrites the setting in the default inst directory).Any ideas or backdoor-solutions,(Joe;-))?
Regards
Frank

hello frank,
it is possible.
just copy your current MI installation folder to another
location and do the following to your copied images.
(no need to uninstall your MI.)
1. modify the altered path-dependent variables.
  for details see
<a href="/people/sap.user72/blog/2005/12/21/how-to-reconfigure-mi-client-when-installation-path-is-altered to reconfigure MI client when installation path is altered</a>
IMPORTANT: you have to change your startup/shutdown script
files and your listOfJars.txt. if not changed your copied
MI installation will point/use files inside your original
MI folder.
2. for MI tomcat runtime, you have to change the service
port numbers of your other installations. modify the
<MI_DIR>\conf\server.xml
<Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector">
         <Parameter name="handler" value="org.apache.tomcat.service.http.HttpConnectionHandler"/>
         <Parameter name="port" value="4444"/>
</Connector>
<Connector className="org.apache.tomcat.service.PoolTcpConnector">
         <Parameter name="handler"  value="org.apache.tomcat.service.connector.Ajp12ConnectionHandler"/>
         <Parameter name="port" value="8007"/>
</Connector>
if you are not using the Ajp12Connection you just can
ignore the binding error for your Ajp12Connection handler.
3. access your MI page of your copied installations thru
http://localhost:<portnumber>
e.g. original installation port#: 4444
http://localhost:4444
copied installation port#: 5555
http://localhost:5555
IMPORTANT: you have to change this port number or you
will be getting JVM_bind exceptions.
this should solve your problem.

  • 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.

    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.

    This was posted by someone else sometime ago. I'm posting it again for your reference. hope this helps.

    You must read carefully the following steps here. If you previously installed any Oracle's products on your machine, I strongly recommend you to clean up thoroughly before install the new products.
    ================================================================
    Uninstallation
    The easiest way to remove ALL traces of Oracle software, for an 8i installation, is:
    (1) Using regedit, remove the key \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\ORACLE.
    (2) Remove all the Oracle services (usually called Ora-something) from \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
    (3) Go to the ORACLE_HOME directory (usually C:\Oracle\Ora81). Go to the BIN directory beneath this. Rename the file OCIW32.DLL to something like OCIW32.OLD.
    (4) Reboot your box.
    (5) Once you have logged on again, delete the directories C:\Program Files\Oracle and C:\Oracle.
    (6) Right-click on My Computer, select Properties->Environment. Edit the environmental variable PATH to remove all refernces to files in the two directories you have just deleted.
    (7) Remove the Oracle folders from your Start menu.
    *** Obviously, using regedit on your machine always entails risks, and I won't be held responsible if you end up trashing your system. However, the above procedure is one I have used many times with complete success. You have been warned! ;) ***
    As to logging on, the "standard" Oracle accounts are:
    SYS/change_on_install (SYSDBA - database owner)
    SYSTEM/manager (Owns various VIEWs and utility PACKAGEs)
    and (optionally):
    SCOTT/tiger (Training account containing some sample tables)
    If you're using PO8i on the local machine, you shouldn't need to worry about setting up NET*8 (Oracle's networking protocols)
    =================================================================
    Windows 95 and 98
    This will remove all Oracle products, Oracle services, and Oracle registry entries from your computer.
    Complete the following steps to create a Clean Machine. Backup any relevant databases before proceeding!
    On Windows 95 and Windows 98:
    1. Ensure you shutdown your Oracle. Right click on the Oracle Icon in the toolbar and click on the shutdown option.
    2. Un-install all your Oracle products if possible. Use universal installer to do that. Ignore this step if you dont have universal installer on your machine.
    3. In regedit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE.
    4. Delete the ORACLE key.
    5. Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and remove your %ORACLE_HOME%\bin and JRE paths from the path setting.
    6. From the Windows Explorer (or from the command prompt), delete the Oracle directory (Oracle Base).
    7. Delete <system_drive>:\Program Files\Oracle (from the Windows NT Explorer or from the command prompt).
    8. Delete Icons from <system_drive>: \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle - <HOME> and <system_drive>:\Windows\StartMenu\Programs\Oracle Installation Products. Where <HOME> is the previous HOME name.
    9. Reboot your computer.
    On Windows NT:
    1. Ensure you are logged in as a user with Administrator privileges.
    2. Stop all Oracle Services through Control Panel Services. Use universal installer to un-install your Oracle products. Ignore un-install if you dont have universal installer on your machine.
    3. Using regedit (at the command prompt, type regedit), go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE and delete the ORACLE key.
    4. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services, and remove all keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services that begin with ORACLE.
    5. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application, and remove all keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application that begin with ORACLE.
    6. Close regedit.
    7. From the Control Panel, open System.
    8. If JRE was installed by Oracle, remove the %ORACLE_HOME%\BIN path and the JRE path. For example, you may see a path similar to this one: C:\ORACLE\ORAxx\BIN;G: \Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\bin. Go to Start > Control Panel > System > Environment tab. Click on the system variable path and modify the path.
    9. Delete Icons from <system_drive>:\Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle - <HOME> and <system_drive>:\Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle Installation Products. Where <HOME> is the previous HOME name.
    10. Delete <system_drive>:\Program Files\Oracle (from the Windows NT Explorer or from the command prompt).
    11. Reboot your computer.
    12. Delete all ORACLE_BASE directories (You can find the Oracle homes listed in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\ORACLE_HOMES).

    Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) for 8.1.x Hangs on Machines
    with Pentium 4
    Processors
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Versions Affected
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Oracle 8.1.5
    ============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.6.0.9.0
    Oracle 8.1.6
    =============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.0.19.0
    Oracle 8.1.7
    ==============
    Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.1.9.0
    Platforms Affected
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
    Sun JRE
    and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
    Windows 2000
    and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be affected.
    Description
    ~~~~~~~~~~~
    When installing Oracle Products with the Oracle Universal
    Installer (8.1.x)
    on machines that use the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT, the
    installer hangs.
    Specifically for the Windows platform, the following version
    of the Symmantec
    JIT or earlier will encounter the failure:
    Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK
    1.2.
    Details regarding this issue can be found at:
    http://developer.intel.com/design/processor/future/manuals/knowni ssue.htm
    How to determine if you have Symmantec Java for JDK 1.2:
    1. Select the file "symcjit.dll" and right click on it.
    2. Select Properties, then the Version tab.
    3. Under Microsoft Windows*, the properties of the DLL are:
    "Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for
    JDK 1.2 Copyright (C)
    1996-99 Symantec Corporation Dynamic Link Library file".
    DLLs older than this will also not work. "
    Likelihood of Occurrence
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
    Sun JRE
    and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
    Windows 2000 and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be
    affected.
    Possible Symptoms
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    The failure typically is that the affected application simply
    terminates.
    Workaround
    ~~~~~~~~~~
    Not only will OUI be affected by this bug, most of the
    post-install
    configuration tools will also be affected. Running these
    tools with "-nojit"
    specified will avoid the hang, but it is not simple to specify
    "-nojit" for
    some of the products.
    The following workaround works for the Windows operating
    system:
    a. Copy only the install directory from the CD to the hard
    disk ,say, e:\temp.
    b. Open oraparam.ini and make the following modifications
    (Assuming CD
    drive is f:)
    * Change the "SOURCE=" line to use the full path to the CD
    instead of a
    relative path. (i.e., SOURCE=f:\stage\products.jar)
    * Change the "JRE_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
    CD instead of a
    relative path. (i.e.,
    JRE_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\jre\1.1.7\1\DataFiles
    \Expanded)
    * Change the "OUI_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
    CD instead of a
    relative path. (i.e.,
    OUI_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\oui\1.6.0.9.0\1\DataF
    iles\Expanded
    * Change the "JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS" line to add "-nojit" as the
    first argument.
    (i.e., JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m)
    ^^^^^^
    * Other entries should remain the same
    c. Launch setup.exe from the temporary location on your hard
    drive (i.e.
    e:\temp\install\win32\setup.exe). This will use the
    modified
    oraparam.ini and pick up the information from the CD since
    the absolute
    locations are specified.
    Choose a Custom install and choose not to create a database
    during the
    install. This way, the Database Configuration Assistant will
    not be launched
    during installation.
    The Net8 Configuration Assistant will still be launched, and
    there is no way
    to suppress it. You will need to kill the Net8 Configuration
    Assistant if it
    hangs due to the bug. The installation still will have been
    successful, and
    you can run the DBCA and NetCA after installation.
    To kill NetCA if it hangs during installation:
    In the "Configuration Tools" window, highlight the "Net8
    Configuration
    Assistant" and click "Stop". If that does not work, look for
    the most recent
    JRE process using the Task Manager, and kill it manually.
    NOTE: the OUI
    itself will also have a jre process. Be sure to kill the one
    with the most
    recent date, which should be the jre process being used for
    Net8CA, not the
    one for OUI itself.
    After killing the configuration tools and continuing through
    the installation
    to the "End of Installation" screen, you should modify the
    configuration tools
    to use "-nojit", then call the appropriate tools from the
    Start Menu.
    Once installation is complete, each of the following files in
    the ORACLE_HOME
    needs to be modified:
    assistants\dbca\dbassist.cl
    assistants\dbma\dbmig.cl
    assistants\ifa\ifa.cl
    bin\elogin.cl
    bin\owm.cl
    ldap\oidamdin\oidadmin.cl
    network\tools\netasst.cl
    network\tools\netca.cl
    owm\install\instelogin.cl
    owm\install\instowm.cl
    Edit the contents of the above files to add "-nojit" as shown
    below:
    Command=("C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\BIN\JREW" -nojit
    -classpath ....
    this is the only thing you need to add --> ^^^^^^
    Then, launch the necessary tools, like Net8CA and DBCA from
    the Start Menu.
    Patches
    ~~~~~~~
    Currently there is not a patched installer available to deal
    with this
    problem, the workaround listed above must be used.

    The solution of making a local copy of the installation CD on
    the hard disk and renameing symcjit.dll to symcjit.old does
    work to allow installation of Oracle Client 8.1.7 on a Pentium 4
    This function is useful and you can find two file to rename
    ===============================================================
    Windows ME
    Solution to the installation of Oraclei8.1.7 PE in Windows Millennium
    Oracle does not support installing version 8.1.7 PE into
    Windows Millennium.
    As an unsupported workaround, you may add the following line
    to the [compatibility95] section of win.ini prior to
    installation:
    Jrew=0x00080000
    After setup is complete, Oracle will recommend a reboot.
    There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;
    Oracle may add a non-standard path statement to the
    autoexec.bat file. Please modify this SET PATH
    statement to use short-filenames if you find a quoted
    LFN string represented as part of the path. You can
    confirm that the path was merged successfully into the
    registry after reboot by examining the PATH variable
    in the registry at
    HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment
    Symptoms of a missing Oracle path statement in the registry are that Net8 Easy Config will not launch.
    Please note that Oracle does not support the use of this
    product in Windows ME, but have authorized these workarounds
    for testing purposes only.
    ===============================================================
    Windows XP Home Edition
    Oracle 8i is not certified on windows XP. Even if yes, it must be Windows XP Professional.
    You can install Oracle8i on windows XP Home Edition, try like this:
    1 - Copy your Oracle CD into hard disk in your
    machine. For example Copy from oracle8i CD into C:\Oracle\ ...
    2 - Search the two files named Symcjit.dll on the D drive (where you have copied Oracle8i. You can found them in (example):
    C:\Oracle\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1
    \DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll
    3 - Rename this file (Example): symcjit_back.dll (make sure to find two files and rename them)
    4 - Execute the Oracle setup.exe from C:\Oracle\setup.exe
    ===============================================================
    When Oracle 8i dies on the install or the installer hangs, here is the fix for this, make sure that you have Service Pack 2 installed.
    1. \JRE\1.3.1\ From Sun. (You can download java program at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html)
    2. Install the java file.
    There is also a problem in the installation disk.
    3. Make a copy of the Oracle 8i disk on the local hard disk.
    4. Do a search for the two files called symcjit.dll and rename them for example: symcjit.old.
    5. Install Oracle from the win32 directory.

  • Reinstall MI Client with new device ID

    Hi guys,
    In MI 7.0 I removed a device ID and uninstalled the client.
    After reinstallation, I created same user locally and after first sync I received a new device ID.
    Then I assigned the xAPPL to the device ID and run new sync.
    After sucessfully instalation the old device ID is assigned back to the device.
    Therefore I cannot perform any sync since the old device ID has been removed from the server.
    Any tips?
    Regards,
    Renato

    Hi Oliver,
    As feedback I found the cause of the problem. Since I'm installing the pilot client in a Windows Vista laptop, program files were installed in:
    C:/Program Files/SAP Mobile Infrastructure
    I don't know why, when you start the application, these files are
    transfered to:
    C:\Users\<my user>\AppData\Local\VirtualStore\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure
    All time I was uninstalling the MI client, only the C:\Program Files\SAP Mobile Infrastructure were being deleted, but not the other route.
    After uninstalling the application I manually deleted the other route.
    With new installation, the aplication received a new device ID and it was not assigned automatically to the old one.
    Best regards,
    Renato

  • Installing Oracle 8i client tools on Windows 2K Advanced Server SP2

    I am having issues with installing Oracle 8i client tools on W2K Advanced Server SP2. The CD I have is labeled Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition, Release 3 (8.1.7) Win NT/2000 CSI# 2224188. The error message I get is that a dependency exist on having ORACLE.SWD.JRE 1.1.8.10.0 installed and the universal installer cant find it. The disk has a folder named ORACL.SWD.JRE with a subfolder named 1.1.7.30 which leads me to believe that the version of the file that shipped with this media is version 1.1.7.30.
    Questions:
    1. Why would Larry ship a CD with the wrong version of a file...just venting.
    2. Where do I get the correct version?
    3. How do I install it?
    Any help would be appreciated.

    Oracle8i on PIV
    If you have Pentium IV do following: find file symcjit.dll file in the oracle installation folder and rename it to symcjit.old.
    try to run setup.exe located in the install/win32 folder.
    Oracle9i on W2K
    Install service pack 2 or higher
    Virtual memory between 800 and 900 MB ( Recommended )
    if for any cause setup.exe does not make anything,
    try to make click on autorun.exe

  • Installing the Mobile Client

    Hello,
    I am following the document Oracle® Database Mobile Server Mobile Client Guide Release 11.1.0.
    My client platform happens to be Blackberry RIM 5.0.
    http://<mobile_server>:<port>/mobile/setup
    takes me to the setup page in the Blackberry Simulator browser. Language = English . Platform = Blackberry
    But on clicking SQLite Blackberry, what is the next step to install the Mobile Client on Blackberry? There is no setup.exe for SQLite Blackberry. How do I know that the Mobile Client is installed on Blackberry?
    Please Help

    Mike, thanks for the very quick response.  Not being able to use the MDW and the Mobile Client on the same platform would have been a show-stopper for us.  So, just to be clear, I can use the MDW on my Windows 7 desktop, and use my Windows 7 laptop as the mobile device.

  • Script to uninstall old SMS and install 2012 R2 client

    We are at a client and running into a unique situation. Currently there are 10k devices that have approx. 8000k with sccm 2012 clients installed on. There are approx. 2000k with old sms clients still installed on some being vpn users. We noticed there is

  • Script to install the SCCM client remotely

    Hi everyone,
    My customer wants me to realize a script that reads
    from a computers.txt list containing all the company computers and that do the following steps:
    1. Verify that the sccm client is not installed
    2. If not present, install remotely the client
    3. Verify that the WMI stack is healthy 
    Any help will be appreciate :-)
    Thank you

    If you're looking for a startup script Jason Sandys has written the best one
    http://blog.configmgrftw.com/configmgr-client-startup-script/
    As for reading the computers from a text file, that's ridiculous. You will find that nobody has ever done that. ConfigMgr is designed to manage tens (and hundreds) of thousands of devices in the simplest way possible. Compiling and maintaining a text file
    of computer names is high maintenance and quite frankly crazy.

  • Installing sify Broadband client ??

    Hello SOlaris Greeks !
    I am very new to Solaris... I recently installed Solaris 10 in my intel machine.. Now i want to configure the box with my Lan internet Broadband connection .. I am good with ipconfig stuff to plumb and configuring my ip , gateway, subnet mask setting but the problem is with my Broadband Dialer program which is mandatory for connecting to my ISP ..
    you can download the dialer program from the following URL
    http://202.144.105.91:81/bbandclient/sifyconnect-1.3-bin.tar.gz
    Its was actually written in Linux, can any one translate the same program to Solaris Complient. I am getting the following error messages

    any help - very much appreciated
    - from valli, VC++ Programmer, India.

    um.
    Most broadband clients doing PPPoE or PPPoA or somesuch that are written for linux will be looking to use the linux TUN device.
    An equivalent device might exist in Solaris, but the API will be completely different between Solaris and Linux. This isn't like writing against LIBC where you expect things to work roughly the same - the thing will be linked against particular kernel system calls and just simply not work.
    Get a broadband router, or make one out of a cheap PC and linux FC4.

  • Unable to install Oracle XE Client on Ubuntu 8.04 - "no such user"

    Hi,
    I've just installed Oracle XE client on my desktop machine (64bit Ubuntu 8.04), and I had to manually create some users and groups:
    sudo groupadd nobody
    sudo groupadd oinstall
    sudo useradd -s /bin/bash -g oinstall -G dba oracle
    sudo passwd oracle
    before the install would complete, due to what appears to be incorrect arguments to useradd by the installer.
    It took quite a lot of hunting to find the above, and I'm a little concerned since no one else seems to have had the same problems.
    I installed using:
    $ sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture oracle-xe-client_10.2.0.1-1.0_i386.deb
    (the force-architecture was required for the server install on my server, so I did the same here)
    I read the install instructions on the oracle pages
    (http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/xe/files/install.102/b25144/toc.htm#BABFEDEI) and didn't see anything about having to manually create these accounts, and I seem to have followed the rest of the instructions correctly.
    What did I do wrong? I'm probably going to have to do it again sometime, and I'm a little concerned that I might have just been causing trouble for myself by doing those extra manual steps.
    Note that I had to provide a password for the oracle user; how does oracle manage to log in using this account, since I didn't have to provide it anywhere?
    Any help/advice would be appreciated,
    many thanks,
    William
    BTW I'm really not happy with the preview/post message thing in this forum; I'm using Firefox 3.0.1 and if you use preview then the back button clears the entire text (yay, thanks!); I tried to be more cunning next time, and use the back button instead, but then none of the "preview", "post message" and "cancel" buttons work... so this was my third attempt at writing this message, and it's somewhat shorter than the original, like my patience :p

    I'm trying to re-install itunes on my laptop & I am getting a message that has stopped the re-install & it says: "Service 'Apple Mobile Device" (Apple Mobile Device) failed to start. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to start system services."  The diaglogue box gives me the options to abort, retry, or ignore; when I tried retry and ignore the re-install process stays stalled & the dialogue box comes back & I don't want to abort & start this all over to probably end up with the same issue; what does this mean & what do I do?

    Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
    Remove all of these items in the following order:
    iTunes
    Apple Software Update
    Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
    Bonjour
    Apple Application Support
    Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
    The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
    Please note:
    Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

  • TS3212 I receive a massage that a new version of ITunes was available (11.1.4). I proceeded to update, the download went ok but when installing the Message "Service 'Apple Mobile Device' failed to start, verify that you have sufficient Privileges to start

    I receive a massage that a new version of ITunes was available (11.1.4). I proceeded to update, the download went ok but when installing the Message “Service ’Apple Mobile Device’ failed to start, verify that you have sufficient Privileges to start system Services”
    On pressing retry I got the same message.
    On pressing Ignore, I got the message “ITunes was not installed correctly, please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)
    I reinstalled with the same error messages and the same results.
    I uninstalled existing and reinstalled from scratch and the same error messages again.
    I try to repair and at the end it said it had installed correctly – but when it tried to start I got the message “This application has failed to start because MSVCR80.dll was not found. Reinstalling the application may fix the problem” I now get the same message when I first start the computer but when I press ok I receive ““ITunes was not installed correctly; please reinstall ITunes – Error 7 – (windows error 126)” again.
    It appears the update has not only corrupted the operating system (Xp Pro SP3) of my computer but I have no backups to my IPhone, my wife’s IPhone or the three others phones that use my computer.
    I hope you can advise me how to recover my backups

  • Is it possible to have 64-bit 11g Full Install and 32-Client on 1 computer?

    Here's why I ask:
    I have installed a full 64-bit 11g R2 install on my Windows 7 D: drive, installed two DB's, worked great. Then I realized application I need to support (Cognos 10.1) requires 32-bit client (for drivers) so I installed the 11g client also on D: drive as well (for space reasons).
    My problem is that my registry only shows one ORACLE_HOME--the 64-bit full install whereas Cognos reqs to point to 32-bit client.
    My sqlplus in the 64-bit OH worked fine (D:\oracle\app\dock\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\BIN\sqlplus.exe) whereas the 32-bit client sqlplus (D:\oracle\client\app\dock\product\11.2.0\client_1\BIN\sqlplus.exe) did not work. The error was:
    SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Mon Sep 26 18:02:30 2011
    Copyright (c) 1982, 2010, Oracle. All rights reserved.
    Enter user-name: cognos
    Enter password:
    ERROR:
    ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    Any login id (sys, system, etc) gave same error. 64-bit sql-plus worked fine. If I opened a cmd prompt and navigated to the 32-bit sqlplus under the client this WOULD work to login (but then I noticed it was using the 64-bit ORACLE_HOME and PATH settings if I typed set). In order to fix Cognos, I changed my ORACLE_HOME and path to point to the 32-bit client (i.e. from D:\oracle\app\dock\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1 to
    ORACLE_HOME = D:\oracle\client\app\dock\product\11.2.0\client_1
    PATH = D:\oracle\client\app\dock\product\11.2.0\client_1\bin;C:\Program Files (x86)\NVIDIA Corporation\PhysX\Common;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;%SYSTEMROOT%\System32\WindowsPowerShell\v1.0\;C:\Program Files\ThinkPad\Bluetooth Software\;C:\Program Files\ThinkPad\Bluetooth Software\syswow64;C:\Program Files\Intel\WiFi\bin\;C:\Program Files\Common Files\Intel\WirelessCommon\
    Guess what? This stopped both the 64-bit and 32-bit sqlplus from working, even after bouncing the computer. Now the listener (64-bit) OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSListener will also not start either.
    Sooooo, I think I need to set the OH and PATH back to the 64-bit as that is what the Listener requires but any ideas how to get the 32-bit sqlplus to also work?!? The Cognos application appears to use the default server settings (most likely from ORACLE_HOME and Path) and in it I just type the name of the database and connection string, there's no real way to point it anywhere to differentiate. If it doesn't find 32-bit drivers it throws an error hence the reason I need the client sqlplus, etc to work.
    Thanks in advance for any help!
