Patch download from OTN

Hi,
Would it be possible to make the oracle RDBMS patches available for downloading from the OTN-site?
I've tried many times to download the 8.1.7.2 patch for AIX from metalink, but the download (260 MB) crashes after a few MB's. (I am in Gabon, Afrika, with not very stable internet connection).
I haven't been able to get any resuming download manager to work with the site.
From the OTN site however, I can download big files, because my download manager can resume files from this site. If the patches were on the same server, I could download them.
Sending patches via mail, on cd, is not an option, because mail can take months, and even not arrive at all here.
I hope you can help,

The list of [OPN benefits|http://www.oracle.com/partners/home/why_allusers/en/assess.html] on the Oracle Partner site is probably the first place to look.
OPN members do get Metalink access, which does technically allow you to download patchsets. It does not, however, give you a license for those patchsets (i.e. you still need to have a proper production license and a proper support license).

  • Licensed version and free download from OTN of Oracle 10g DB

    I had a doubt with any difference with the licensed version and free download from OTN of Oracle 10g DB. We had downloaded a free version of oracle 10g
    database from OTN and are using it in our live environment. It seems to be working fine. We are trying to get a licensed copy of Oracle 10g DB also but that may take sometime. So, my doubt is whether the free download from OTN should not create any problems in our live environment.
    I hope, my question is clear.
    Please, help in solving the doubt.
    regards

    Hello,
    There is no difference whether you download from OTN or get so called licensed copy of oracle software. It's free to download and free to use you are using for personal eduction purpose, but if you are using for commercial purpose then you should contact oracle sales for pricing but you can continue with the same software. See following link for certification on different platform

  • Download from OTN with 20 kB/sec only

    For about 3 months my download from OTN-UK is slow with about 20 kB/sec. About half a year ago I downloaded with 1.5 MB/sec. What has happened? Does not matter if I download at 8AM (CET) or 3PM (CET). Metalink download is with about 200-300 kB/sec for me (so not a problem at my end).

    Try this url instead: http://otn.oracle.com/software/htdocs/devlic.html?http://download-east.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle9i/9202/ship_9202_ia64_lnx_Disk3.cpio.gz

  • The document i download from OTN is a 29k-zip file,why?

    I try to download the OWB,but the document i downloaded from OTN was 29k-zip file. I have registed ,and I have try many times ,why?

    No. You would require a PC in order to run the executable which is an installer, not a disc image or an archive.

  • Install 8.1.7 downloaded from otn??

    Hi,
    Has anybody installed 8.1.7 for linux (RH7) that has been downloaded from this otn site? I downloaded the 8.1.7ee.tar file from the OTN site and I do not know how to install it (as there is no GUI installer in this tar file).
    Any help appreciated....

  • Availability of Tuxedo 8 download from OTN

    Hi,
    We have an old product that integrates with Tuxedo 8 that we need to do some work on and we can no longer find the Tuxedo 8 installers that were used at the time.
    Is there a way to get installers for multiple platforms for this version from OTN?
    Looking at http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17973_01/platforms/tuxedoplatforms/tuxplats/index.html, I see that 8.0 is not even listed.
    Thanks for your help

    Unfortunately no. There is no Oracle download site the Tuxedo 8.0 installers.
    OTN only provides the latest release downloads for Tuxedo(e.g 11gR1)
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/tuxedo/downloads/index.html
    An alternative for older installers is the Edelivery website but it only goes back a couple of releases (e.g. 10.0) from the latest.
    https://edelivery.oracle.com/
    Note: Tuxedo 9.1 premier support ends next month(i.e. June) and extended support ends June 2014.

  • Cannot download from OTN

    Hello,
    When I try to download Oracle Database 9i for unix server AIX5L the browser doesn't progress. The ping to the server is timed out.
    Could you tell me if the download function is available?
    Thanks for your answer.

    We are not aware of any problems with the download service at this time. Please make sure you are not behind any firewall or proxy server that may be interrupting your transfer from OTN.

  • Corrupt file downloaded from OTN

    Cannot open file - it does not appear to be a valid archive.
    The download completes without error. However OTN indicates a file size of approx 500M yet the downloaded file is 179,512k.
    Is the OTN file corrupt ? or is the download corrupting the file ?
    Is there an FTP site I can download from ?
    Gerard.
    So that we may better diagnose DOWNLOAD problems, please provide the following information.
    - Server name
    - Filename 9011NTSrv_Disk1
    - Date/Time 13 May
    - Browser + Version IE 5.5
    - O/S + Version NT4
    - Error Msg

    Thank you, Ideato' for taking an interest in this issue.
    What you say cannot be because this is a package for Corporate use with drivers for an entire series of printers. They surely know that an IT department would store the files on some file server. I can understand why FF has all of its Open options greyed out. It intelligently senses that the file is missing, and it is not too difficult to program.
    Thanks again.

  • Downloading from OTN at 15KB/sec?

    For several days I have been trying to download a file from OTN, but the transfer rate is so low that the file never comes.
    I believe there is a problem with the server "download-uk.oracle.com", since the transfer rate is allways approximately 15Kb/Sec...
    I have checked with our network administrator who told me that the problem is probably at the origin, that is, at the server.
    I'm trying to download the following file:
    http://download.oracle.com/otn/linux/oracle9i/9202/ship_9202_ia64_lnx_Disk3.cpio.gz

  • About Utilities downloaded from OTN

    Can 9i utilities for xml like XDK be downloaded from the OTN site and directly used with a licensed version of Oracle 8i (R2) used for production database? Or does it need production licensed version? If yes, how can I obtain that? I do not want to purchase 9i just for that XDK kit.
    Pls clarify.

  • Installing the hyperion planning downloaded from otn

    I have read in installation guide which says to run setup.exe, but there is no

    Hi,
    You should download the files from Oracle edelivery site.

    I think the files you have downloaded is just a patch.
