Oracle Client in Windows Me

I'm using ODBC to connect to an Oracle database. I've installed the Oracle client successfully in windows 2000, but when i try to do the same in Windows Me, I get an error in the staging area.
any suggestion?
bye

IIRC, the Oracle client doesn't officially support Windows ME. If you search the Oracle newsgroups, I know there are a number of folks who have encountered this problem and posted installation workarounds. Be aware that if you get around the installation issue, you may encounter problems later on since the code hasn't been tested on WinME.

Error during installing oracle client on windows XP

Hi everybody,
I want to install Oracle Client on Windows XP. I downloaded and installed Client version 10g on several PCs. But one of them gives me error - 'oui.exe - error'. Cant start oui.exe. Is it problem of Windows XP or ? I just cant start GUI of OUI.exe...
regards,
rustam

1. Check the administrative privilege of that windows machine.
2. Copy the binaries of client again in your machine. It may be corrupted.
3. Restart your machine and try again.

How do I set-up on %ORACLE_HOME%\bin for Oracle client on Windows XP

How do I set-up on %ORACLE_HOME%\bin for Oracle client on Windows XP?
The Oracle bin directory is: C:\oracle\ora90\bin
Thank you!

If you are asking how to setup the resolution of %ORACLE_HOME%\bin to C:\oracle\ora90\bin, you must create a system environment variable called ORACLE_HOME that is set to a value of C:\oracle\ora90.
Kind regards,
Russ

32-bit Oracle client on Windows 7 64-bit?

Hi,
I have a Windows 7 64-bit OS and need to install an Oracle client on this machine. Instead of installing a 64-bit client, I would like to install a 32-bit client and was wondering if this is possible and compatible on a 64-bit machine? The reason I would prefer to install a 32-bit client is because i have a 32-bit version of TOAD and apparently this doesnt work with a 64-bit client.
I have downloaded the following files:
Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2 (10.2.0.3) -> 10203_vista_w2k8_x86_production_client.zip
patchset 10.2.0.5 (for Windows 7 compatibility) -> p8202632_10205_WINNT.zip
Are these the correct files I have downloaded? Thanks.

Hi,
What about trying these samples..
test =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = your machine name )(PORT = 1521)) )
(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = your database sid) )
test1 =
(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = your machine name )(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = your database sid) (SERVER = DEDICATED)
test2 =
(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = your machine name )(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = your database sid) (SERVER = DEDICATED)
Test all of them using tnsping before you use them..

Failed to install 64-bit Oracle client on Windows 8.1

I just tried to install the 64-bit client on Windows 8.1 with 16GB of ram.
First of all, I got the INS-13001 warning that my environment does not meet minimum requirements, even though I was just installing a client!
I chose to ignore the warning and installed anyway.
It doesn't look like the install completed successfully.
For one thing, it did not create a bin folder.
Also when I tried to remove it using the OUI, I was told to use the deinstall utility in the deinstall folder, which is not there either.
How am I supposed to remove this seemingly incomplete installation?

You are trying to put it into a 2010 Ford truck body.
Why are you surprised it does not fit? (or if it fits, why it is not quite correct!)Please tell me where I indicated "surprise"?
Actually, what I was trying to do was get a serious answer rather than a smart-a$$ response.
If you've used software a little, you would realize that saying something is not yet "formally supported" does not mean that there is not a way to make it work. TONS of software does not yet claim it will work with Windows 7, but somehow magically it does. Possibly with problems or issues to workaround, but functional.
I was asking, if on my development machine, there is a way to make the current client work.
In any event - it turns out installing the 32-bit client rather than the 64-bit client does seem to make most things work, at least well enough for my current needs.
Thank you for your very informative response anyway.

Oracle Client for Windows 2008 R2 server to connect to Oracle database 9iR2

Hi,
We are running Oracle 9.2.0.7 on Sun solaris (64 Bit) 5.10 and trying to install client on new Windows 2008 R2 (64 - bit) server. (Before this 2008 R2 we were using Windows 2003 32 bit and 9iR2 client was working great.) I can't install 9iR2 clinet and I tried installing 10gR1, 10gR2 and 11gR1 but none of them worked. It is only allowing me to install 11gR2. When I installed 11gR2 client I am getting some 'overflow exception on an arithmetic operation' error.
1.) Do I have any choice for client installation or only 11gR2?
2.) Any solution for overflow error?
Thanks,

May I know the reason why ODBC driver is not include in option like Runtime?Oracle software utilizes SQL*Net (not ODBC) to connect to Oracle RDBMS.
ODBC is not required by Oracle client software to connect to Oracle RDBMS.

Error message installing Oracle client on Windows 95 PC...

I am trying to install the Oracle client onto a Windows 95 PC from the original CD. When the CD is placed into the drive it autoruns and brings up the menu. When I choose install I recieve the following error message and installation does not continue. The message states...
The Java RunTime Environment was not found at ../stage/Components/oracle.swd.jre/1.1.7.24/1/DataFiles/Expanded/jre\win32\bin\jrew.exe. Hence, the Oracle Universal Installer cannot be run. Please visit http://www.javasoft.com and install JRE version 1.1.7 or higher and try again.
...I have gone to JavaSoft's web site, downloaded and installed JRE 1.3.1 or whatever is out there as of today. Even after I have done this and rebooted I still recieve same error. Any ideas would be very helpfull since I am all out of them. Tahnnk you.

You need more space for example 256MB RAM or higher.

I am in the same boat, I have downloaded what was told to download and it doesn't install it keeps saying "Unknown" 3 times in a popup when I try to install.Oracle has roughly 3,000 products. You downloaded 'what you were told' - one of those 3,000 products. And it didn't work.
The amount of information you provide is surprisingly sparse, assuming you want assistance.
So - if you want help, you might wnat to provide some information:
- the operating system (including edition, and major service pack if WIndows, or distro && major/minor release and kernel if *nix)
- the URL froim which you downloaded
- the country yuo are in (since ORacle could redirect to several sitres based on region)
- the command or executable, including directory path, you run or double-click on
- the 'exact' error message, or if a generic one like "Unknown", perhaps a screen shot to convince us that it is actually such a generic message
It's just a suggestion, but answering in such detail actually tells us you are serious about resolving the issue - you put in effort, and that may convince us to return some effort.

Oracle Client for windows.

Hi,
I just downloaded the Oracle 10g client for Windows.I cant figure out whats the next step.I was expecting to see a .exe file and kind of an installation wizard which would guide me through the process.In the instant client that I downloaded,I see 2 files:
adrci and genezi.
I think I am in the wrong place.Please advise.
Thanks

The file you downloaded should be a large .zip file (almost 500 meg).
Unzip it (with directories intact).
Then at the top level directory you should see setup.exe (or something like that).

You have no Oracle clients installed: Windows XP client to Oracle Linux ser

Hallo! I have Oracle 10g Db running on Redhat Enterprise Linux server.Moreover, I have a windows XP client having Toad 9.06 in the XP client. The client does not have any Oracle Db or Apps installed.
I would like to connect to the Oracle Db sever via Toad. I have placed the server IP on the the IP text box. I placed port 22 (SSH port).I am not sure which port to place.
Unfortunately, I get the error no Oracle clients installed.
How do I resolve this?
Thanks.

You need to install oracle database 10g client on your PC using windows XP.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/10201winsoft-095341.html
Go to this link , download and install the client on Windows XP box. Then edit the tnsnames.ora file and add the TNS entry of your database which you want to connect.

Connect to Oracle without Oracle Client in Windows?

Hi All,
Is there anyway to connect to Oracle DB without any installation of Oracle Product in Client?
I am using MS ODBC Driver Oracle but It need the "Data Source Name"
It seems that client machine do need to Setup the NET 8 Configure / Tnsname.ora
I can try to set any thing in Oracle Server, But want to minimize the effort doing on the client (Because there are many!).
I am using Visual Basic, WIN XP as client Platform. WIN 2K as Oracle DB Server.
Can anybody give me a hand. Thank you very much!
Eric Yuen

You'll need to install Oracle Client in the client machine. ODBC (or other) connections need OCI and Oracle Net layers.
The Oracle ODBC has a lot of dependencies, probably a thousand files. Unfortunately Client is pretty heavy... managewize also. So that's why you should develop "internet apps". :)

ODAC vs oracle client on Windows server 2008

Hello,
Apologies in advanced if this is a silly question.
I am currently working with a .NET application team that connects to oracle. I am attempting to host there application on my servers. I have tested connectivity to there DB with SQLplus using the 11.2 oracle client.
The application team is asking me to install Oracle Developer tools on the server to replace the client. One of the members of the operate team told me that this is a requirement for there application to talk to oracle. I don't necessarily think they are correct, are there any oracle dependence that would require to ODT to be installed to run a .net application on a server? It's my understanding that ODT is primary used as a plug in for VS.
Thanks in advance,
Dax

DaxDax,
You are correct that you do not need the Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio to be installed on the server. What the team is probably meaning to ask is for you to install "Oracle Data Provider for .NET" which is also part of the ODAC install. They probably got the two names mixed up.
