Oracle client only patches
Hey guys,
I have a query regarding Oracle patches/CPUs. Are there normally any Oracle client only patches avaiable?
I know that you get the server patches and CPUs where you upgrade the server and the client gets updated too (provided they share the Oracle Home).
But would there be any patches/CPUs that are applicable to clients only?
The platforms I'm interested in are:- Windows 32bit & Solaris SPARC 64bit.
Thanks in advance
There is nothing much really to it. We (my company) recommend certain Oracle CPU patches to be updated clients and servers.
If they are the same version and on the same system, it is no problem.
But if the client and server are of different versions and on different systems, we recommend to install certain client CPU patches and certain server CPU patches.
I believe that there is no 'client-only' CPU patch and as confirmed by others in this thread.
Which is why I wanted to whether there is a 'server-only' installation where CPU patches would be applied only to server rather than the client.
I hope it makes sense!
Thanks.

Oracle 9i Client ONLY Download?
Anyone,
From the online downloads is there any place to get what can install the Oracle Client "ONLY".
We have a site License to Oracle need to have remote sites be able to set up connectivity. Trying to avoid having them download entire 300M of Oracle Lite just to get the Oracle Client/SQL Net installation and/or burn CD and ship to them to install.
Thanks in advance,
David MillerThat 600MB file is exactly what I wanted to avoid having them download.
They are not on a very good pipe and I am never goingto hear the end of how long it takes to download.
I am AMAZED that Oracle can not create a "thin client" for their software... Unbelieveable.. This is why SQL Server is catching up so fast....
Thanks,

Oracle client and... Forms&reports client?
Hello, to all; may be you could help me:
I have installed a Oracle 9.2.0.6 database in PC-1, in PC2 I want to install the oracle client and the forms and report client... (I mean, PC2 is the PC where I will copy my Forms 6i client/server application and the idea is to put an direct access icon on the desktop to a .fmx... to be able run my application)
I've already insalled the Oracle client, only runtime version (I think 9.2.0.1, which was included in the oracle database installation cd's) but .. I need one more thing.. because I can't execute forms.. I need ifrun60.exe I think.. Where is it? Is there any forms & reports 6i client or similar? or is necessary to install the developer 6i (I don't think so.. but...)
Thank you very much
Jose.I was reading lots of post and I've seen this two from 2001 related to Forms 5, I suposse they're applicable to Forms 6i?
Forms Client Runtime : where are you ?
Enviado: 27-sep-2001 15:34 Responder
Which version can I install as a pure client version of Forms 6i on a light desktop ? Is there a Forms client runtime like there was with the versions 5.0 and earlier, which we could use just to run a Form, without using any web server, Forms werver, nor using the extra/inter/intra-net ?
Thanx for your help !!
Eric.

Yes there is. Just choose Form/Report Server installation and choose customs. There you can choose Form or report runtime only (under Forms and Reports tree node) and click on install!
Remember to choose customs install so that oracle installer bring you the list of the component.
Do you agree? Could it be just begin the Forms&reports installation and after that.. Chosoe custom.. an choose to install runtimes?
(I'll try tomorrow and I will say the result here) I hope it works!!

Patch 19877440: Optional component(s) missing during Client-only install
I am in the process of patching all Client-only 11.2.0.4 with Patch 19877440 and am receiving the following messages:
Applying interim patch '19877440' to OH '/apps/oracle/product/11gR2/db11g204'
Verifying environment and performing prerequisite checks...
Patch 19877440: Optional component(s) missing : [ oracle.javavm.server, 11.2.0.4.0 ] , [ oracle.rdbms, 11.2.0.4.0 ] , [ oracle.rdbms.dbscripts, 11.2.0.4.0 ] , [ oracle.sqlj, 11.2.0.4.0 ] , [ oracle.sqlj.companion, 11.2.0.4.0 ]
All checks passed.
The way I read the patch readme for the JavaVM was that is was a required patch for both Database and client-only installs but this makes it sound like I don't need it on the clients. Is that correct? OPatch did successfully install the patch on this RHEL x86-64 environment but was it really needed?

Patch for Oracle Client Software
Hi,
i have download oracle 10.2.0.5 patch set on the Oracle server..
i have a Oracle client machine with oracle 10.2.0.4 client.
Can i install the same patch in the Oracle client machine?Hi,
Ok let me explain in detail
First there will not be any separate client patchset or client software and you need apply the server patchset to client
what will happen?
Only client related components will be upgraded.
server will consists of lot of other components compare to client
but when you upgrade client, only client related components will upgraded it will not touch the other components
Note: make sure that you have a valid oracle client backup ie 10.2.0.4.
Kind Regards,

Yes it will serve the purpose. -
It is giving this exception
OUI-10133:Invalid stage area. There are no top level components for Windows NT, Windows 2000 available for installation inthis staging area.
The OS is Windows Server 2003 R2. I have just installed Oracle Client 10.2.0.1 and trying to apply patch of 10.2.0.3 Its urgent. Thanx in advanceI was able to install this patch on Windows 2003 R2.
When it asks for the install home it will just make one up. If you click in the box (it looks grayed out) you will see the REAL home. Highlight that and then continue. It should install fine after that. -
I have a question about oracle patching e.g. 10.2.0.1 to 10.2.0.4
We do patching of 10.2.0.4 for 10.2.0.1 on oracle server.
Just wanted to know do we also perform patching on oracle client also?
If yes then what is the advantage/purpose to do that?
Thanks,CKPT wrote:

Sir, i am confused with both your contradictory answers.... :)
As per 1 reply we do patching for enhancements but i gues those will be helpful/useful at server side at the database level....
how it wil useful for client side?This will help in preventing the issues which are result of client-side software code. F. ex. I can recall daylight savings time fix in 9.2.0.x (don't remember the exact patch number now, but I think it was 8) which included patching both client and server software.OP question is on We do patching of 10.2.0.4 for 10.2.0.1 on oracle server
My answer included an "example". It has nothing to do with the versions that OP has mentioned. -

Hi,
Does the Oracle client needs be on the same patch level as the Oracle database (10.2.0.4)?
Your answere is appreciated.Hi,
Patchsets are recommended when you have problems with your installation or when you need to get to a higher version to keep on having full support. For example, for some platforms it would be necessary to upgrade to 10.2.0.4 database version before March 2009 to keep on having full support. If you are having no issues I think its not necessary to upgrade your client. If you want to be sure of the supported versions of every product you can check it at [metalink.oracle.com].
If this answered your question or was helpful please qualify.

I just want to have the Oracle clients (sqlplus, sqlload, sql*net

nullI've installed Oracle Client 8.1.7 on a Linux machine. I want to connect to a Database on a Oracle Server, which is installed on a Win NT machine.
During installation I gave the name, host, port(1521) of a database, which was promptly registerd in ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/tnsnames.ora file.
When I try connecting to the database, I get the TNS Error :
could not resolve service name
What is the problem? Even tnsping on the host gives a similar message :
Failed to resolve ......
Please help....thanx....
null can you do a ping (not tnsping) on your windows machine from Linux?
If you copy the same tnsnames.ora entry over to your windows machine and try connecting to your database
using Windows client (using this copied tnsnames.ora entry), can you connect sucessfully or you get the
same error message again? -

10.1.0.3 Oracle client for SPARC (64-bit) not on Metalink
All,
I cannot find the 10.1.0.3 Oracle client on Metalink account for SPARC. Is this available anywhere?You have to download the base version also, not only patch set!
To get the patch set:
click tab Patches & Updates, then click link "Quick links to latest ...".
Now choose Oracle Database, scroll down to Solaris SPARC 64bit -> patch set versions 10.1.0.3 to 10.1.0.5.
As far as I know, I dont deal with Client installs much, you can upgrade both Client and Database with the "Database" patch sets.

Heterogeneous version of oracle Client in a lan
Hallo
I am a completely new by of Oracle dba.
I work in a company where there is a Lan with 2 server and 120 clients.
The lan operative system is Windows 2003 on the servers, and xp professional on the clients.
There a program for business management in oracle environment, of course.
In a server is install Oracle server version 10g.
In pc client is install version oracle client heterogenous.
In some pc there is oracle versione 7, in other pc there is version 8 and so on.
There is the possibility of malfunctioning for this reason ?
Is there a possibility problem of work on the lan or with the program ?
Thanks in advance
Dan
ItalyTo communicate with Oracle 10gR2 you need a client 8.1.7.4 at least.
Oracle7 definitely won't work, and Oracle 8.0 also won't work.
Better still you install the 10gR2 client everywhere and upgrade to 10.2.0.4, as 10gR2 is in extended support, and Oracle only supports the last patch level.
