Oracle Client Version
Hi,
We are on PT 8.46.04 and FSCM 8.8 and planning to upgrade the Batch NT server Hardware running on Windows Server 2000 SP4 to WIndows Server 2003.
We are also upgrading the Oracle database from 9.0.2.1.0 to 10g.
My question is, do we need to upgrade the Oracle Client on the APP and BATCH servers to match the Database Version or still keep the old Oracle client version which is 9.0.2.1.0?
can we have different database and client versions?
And also does Oracle support client 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows server 2003 .
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
can we have different database and client versions?The official and recommanded way by Peoplesoft is to meet the same version between client (what ever client machine, application server and batch server) and the database server.
And also does Oracle support client 9.2.0.1.0 on Windows server 2003 Yes, Oracle 9.2 is certified on Windows 2003 (however, 9.2.0.3 or higher patchset was required).
No, it is not supported because Oracle 9.2 is is not supported anymore.
Nicolas.

How to install Oracle client Version 10.2.0.4 on a Windows server 2008
Hi,
I need to install an Oracle client on a Windows Server 2008 (32-bit), how do I do that?
I want to install Oracle client version 10.2.0.4 (Instant Client Package - Basic: All files required to run OCI, OCCI, and JDBC-OCI applications).
Pls. advice, I can't find instructions for this installation on Oracle.com or anywhere else.thx, it looks promising...
but how to run the .jar files and which one to run, both Class12.jar and ojdbc14.jar, to start the installation?
Do I need to install the java runtime environment to run the .jar files? -
How to run different Oracle client versions on the same PC
I have developped an application (.Net 2.0, ODP v. 10). I must run it on PC where Oracle client version 8 is installed. The PC cannot be upgraded because of a client software running under this version.
I tried to install ODP v. 10 on this PC in different home, but the software using version 8 stops running.
Can Oracle Instant Client help ? But which version, 11 ? My application is based on ODP 10. Can ODP 10 access database via Instant Client 11 ?
Thanks for your help
LKThe problem on Windows is: The 10g installation changed the default ORACLE_HOME,now it points to 10g and makes the 8.0.5 application invalid,because it runs now in a much higher environment. What I did in a similar situation, I created a batch file, which sets temporarily the old environment (in my case PATH,ORACLE_SID,ORACLE_HOME) and then invokes the application.
I don't know whether such a solution will work for you (8.0.5 is very old,desupported since a long time), my old version was 8.1.7.4.

Is there a way to tell the Oracle client version (9i or 10g) that is being used by SQL Developer from within SQL Developer? Our Citirx admin installed 10g client on the server and I am trying to verify that the 10g client is indeed being used by the SQL Developer.
In Toad there is a "Support Bundle" menu option to list the environment information (including the SQL client version) used by Toad. Is there something similar within SQL Developer?I am trying to verify that the 10g client is indeed being used by the SQL DeveloperSQL Developer uses whatever client you're connected to.
You don't believe your admin really installed 10g? C'mon!
Is there something similar within SQL Developer?Reports - Data Dictionary Reports - About your Database - Version Banner
Have fun with 10g,

How do I check the oracle client version?
Hi All,
How do I check the oracle client version installed from the OS level. I do know my database version I need to check which client is being used. Is there a table where this information is stored.
Thanks
Shabnadisp+work.exe -V will tell you which OCI version was used during compiling and linking.
Oracle uses release independent DLL Names (Unix people would say Shared Libraries) and therefore the SAP Kernel will dynamically load any Oracle Client Version found in the standard DLL Load Path during startup.
If you have more versions installed on your computer and you are not shure which one is loaded you can use Process Explorer (freeware, see www.sysinternals.com) to find out which one is loaded. If they belong to an Oracle_home (up to release 9.2) refere to Oracle Universal Installers Inventory information in order to find out which exact version is used.
If an Oracle10 Instant Client is used, there is no corresponding Oracle_Home. In this case you can use Windows Explorer (right click on the DLL -for example oci.dll), select properties, the Version Tab and File Version).
But unfortunately Oracle is not updating the File Version every time they are patching something.
An SAP ABAP Server Integrated Resource is the version information disp+work.exe -V is listing (evquivalent to SM51 - Release Information).
<b>Datenbank Client Library : OCI_10201_SHARE (10.2.0.2.0)</b>
OCI_10201_SHARE is telling us the compile/link environment, the number in brackets (only available starting with Oracle10) tells us the the result of an Oracle Client GetVersion call. Unfortunately this one does also not reflect the installed Minipatch version up to now.
Here are some results on 10.2.0.2 Windows X86_64:
SM51: Datenbank Client Library : OCI_10201_SHARE (10.2.0.2.0)
Explorer (OCI.DLL located in the same directory as disp+work.exe):
10.2.0.2.0 Patch2
Explorer (oraociicus10.dll - the instant client implementation, this version is the one actual since mini patch 10.2.0.2.5 and it was definitely changed in 10.2.0.2.5):
OraOCIICUS10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0
oracore10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oranls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
orasnls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oraunls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oravsn10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oracommon10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Patch1
orageneric10.dll - 10.2.0.2.0 Patch2
oraclient10.dll - 10.2.0.2.0 Patch2
orapls10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Patch1
orasql10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oraxml10.dll - 10.1.0.2.0
orahasgen10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oraocrutl10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oraocr10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oraocrb10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oranbeq10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
orantcp10.dll - 10.2.0.1.0 Production
oracommon10.dll from the rdbms server does report 10.2.0.2.0 Patch5 at the same time. compare it with the version information of oracommon10.dll included in oraociicus10.dll. Both patches are included in the same patchset (10.2.0.2.5).
there are two possible conclusions about this:
1. the version infomation is not very reliable.
2. the Oracle Patch and Build environment is not very reliable

hi guys,
How can you find which Oracle client version does SAP 4.6D is using to connect with Oracle.
is there any file or Parameter setting available for this.
Thanks.
ChandraHello,
I'm afraid that the answer given by Samrat Dangeti is incorrect.
V$VERSION tells you the version of the RDBMS ( Oracle Database ) not the version of the client used by SAP.
Please, check the following thread on the Oracle Forum where this is being clarified.

Hi Oracle Guru`s
I`m going to update Oracle databases to 11.2.0.3 from 9i,10G and 11.10.7.0. May I know the Oracle Client versions that supports 11.2.0.3?I am sure any 11.2 client will be supported for sure.So why not 11.2.0.3? 11.1 and 10.2 are only being supported with extended support. 7,8,9 client are not oficially supported.

Oracle Client version (32 or 64 bit) to install on a Windows 2008 64-bit m/
Hi guys,
I am installing BOXI 3.1 SP2 on a Windows 2008 64-bit server.
Which Oracle 10g client (32 or 64 bit) should I install on a 64-bit software. I know BO is native 32 bit, so ODBCs should be 32 bit incase CMS repositories are on SQL server.
Is there a standard for Business Objects for the versions of database client tools to be installed on server?
Also can we install database clients tools after the Business Objects 3.1 SP2 install on the server, provided I am using SQL server dbs for CMS and Audit databases?
Thanks,
G Bala
Edited by: G Bala on Apr 5, 2010 7:31 PM@Duncan
You recommend using 32 bit Oracle client. Is there any official documents from SAP BO stating this? I have difficulties finding anything. I'm in the same situation:
OS : Windows Server 2008 R2 64bit
BO : 32bit
Oracle Client : 32bit OR 64bit?????
Is BO 32bit compatible with Oracle Client 64bit, at the level of using Infoview/Desktop Intelligence? -
Oracle Client version : which one to install?
I apologize if this is not the correct forum, but wasn't sure whether to put it in th general forum or the installation forum.
I have the following environments
Production
Windows 2003 R2 Oracle 9.2.0.8
Windows 2003 R2 Oracle 11.1.0.7
RHEL 5 Oracle 11.2.0.2.0.
Similar evironments exist in QA and dev.
We have app developers that require just the oracle client to be installed.
Should I be installing the 9.x client on every laptop or take the most recent as I presume there is backward compatibility.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.You should be using the 11gR2 client

App/Batch server - oracle client version
Hi,
The Oracle client installed on PSOVM App/Batch server is owned by root ( sigh ), the tnsnames.ora file in used is under /etc/tnsnames.ora (re sigh ), but I got a question. The Oracle client installed is 10.2.0.1 where the template of database server is using 11.1.0.7, I thought Peoplesoft has always recommended (do not say supported ?) same version on both sides. Does that mean it is supported from now, or still not supported but no bug are reported ? The goal of having Peoplesoft templates is mainly to have a full Peoplesoft certified environment, right ?
Nicolas.I won't go into the reasons why there is a different version of the client and server Oracle DB versions. Take our word for the fact that there wasn't an easily amenable pre-existing DB client package for 11.1.0.7 that could be included in a clean and time-effective manner.
Given that this is just a first cut at these templates the templates are not quite as rigorous as what is expected of a production grade environment. The focus was on getting something that successfully demonstrates the basics of a PeopleSoft HCM 9.1 Application.
I am surprised to learn that the Oracle Client is owned by root. I'll make sure this gets addressed in the next version of the templates. -
Oracle Client Version requirements
We've built a program using VS2005 and ODT 10.2.0.2. The database it is accessing is 9i. In order for the program to establish connectivity with the server, we had to load Oracle Client 10.2.0.2, with the installing user having administrative priviledges. No problem. Things work fine.
However, users access the computer with the program installed via terminal services over their network. If a user who does not have administrative priviledges via Active Directory, a error is generated stating “The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client”.
If the user is given administrative priviledges, this error does not occur. As I ponder this, I wonder if terminal services uses the priviledges assigned to the user to determine the Oracle Client to use on the host computer.
Could this be the case, or am I missing something?
Allen
[email protected]does the computer with the program installed has multiple ORACLE_HOME (i.e home for 9i client and home for ODP.NET)? I suspect, only administrators can access ODP.NET home.

Displaying an oracle client version
Could any one please tell me how to tell the version of a given oracle client installation in a UNIX environment.
In other words, suppose I want to know what client version (and patch) is installed on /opt/oracle/product/8.1.7, how can I do that? is there a script/command that I can run?
Thanks
--M.B.One simple way I can suggest is login to sqlplus. You get the client version as well as the database version in it on top.
