Problem Installing Oracle 8i and Oracle 10g client on same machine

Hi Gurus,,
I am new on DBAside....
I have already installed Oracle 10g R2.m planning to install oracle 8i on same machine..
What steps should i follow in order to avoid conflict..
The OS is Windows XP SP3....
I know that installing oracle 8i first and than installing oracle 10g is more convinient..But my requirements are different..
so have to install oracle 10g first and then Oracle 8i on same machine..
Thanks in anticipation.

Hold on - it DOES matter - you shouldn't update new repository with old oracle installer, so be careful...

  • How to use Forms 5 and DevSuite 10g in the same machine

    Hello everybody,
    I have installed forms 5 and IDS 10g in one machine and both the versions of the forms were working simultaneously. Now I have un-installed both the versions of the forms and re-installed in the same machine. Installation was successful. but I am not able to connect to the database in forms 5. It shows TNS could not resolve service name. TNS is created in both the versions with same name as well as different name. The IDS is working fine. Please help.
    Thanks and regards
    Sukanta sarkar

    Sukanto,
    What error are you getting? One potential problem you will have with more than one version of Oracle Dev Suite installed is keeping the TNSNAMES.ORA synchronized. I've found the easiest solution to this problem is to add the TNS_ADMIN registry key to each Oracle Home so I can share a single copy of the TNSNAMES.ORA file. You can add this entry by starting the Window Registry editor (regedt32.exe or regedit.exe) and navigate to the following registry hive:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE => SOFTWARE => ORACLE => HOME? (where ? represents the number of the Oracle Home, eg., 0-9).
    In your example, Forms 5 should be in HOME0 and IDS 10g should be in HOME1. Open each home and add a new "String Value" and name it: TNS_ADMIN. After you have added the new String Value entry, edit the String Value and enter the path to the copy of your TNSNAMES.ORA that is working. Then do the same thing with HOME1 and exit the Registry. You should be able to connect to your database with Forms 5 and IDS 10g. Normally, changes to the registry do not require you to reboot your computer, but I have seen where this is necessary - though not very often.
    Note: Always ensure you have a BACKUP of the Windows Registry before you make any changes. If you uncomfortable modifying the Windows Regisitry, then I don't recommend you make this change.
    Hope this helps.

  • Forms 6i and developer 10g on the same machine

    Can i have forms 6i and developer 10g on the same machine

    Jacob,
    Were you installing any patches to the Forms 6i?? I think your problem was a mix up in the environmental variables.
    multiple versions of the same Oracle product CAN* be installed successfully on the same machine, it has been done by many.
    Do not generalize one experience, since you are working on VMware, try them on one, it's easy to revert to a snapshot ;)
    Install Forms 6i first patch it configure it and restart your machine and install DS 10g, On this machine I have Forms 6i and DS 10g installed at this same moment, and it's been working fine for that last 2 years.

    Hi Abhishek,
    You can install or mount both DB and OBIEE on same machine, but check out the disk space and memory needed should be more to accomodate both.
    Cheers,

  • How do we Install Forms 6i and Server 8i on the same machine (PC)

    Well i am Trying to Install Forms6i and Oracle 8i Server on the same PC and not succeeding. Can anyone help.

    Follow below steps
    1. Remove all Oracle versions in your machine. In NT, To Delete Oracle, delete HKEYLocalMachine/software/oracle , HKEYLocalMachine/software/services/oracle* registry keys, restart m/c and delete all oracle home directories.
    2. Install Forms 6i Server in the default home directory. If you want to develop forms in same m/c, use custom installation and select forms server, forms developer and webdb listner ( if needed ).
    3. Install Oracle 8i in a different oracle home.
    4. configure oracle forms server and webdb listner. ( See Note:107596.7 in matalink)

  • Install both 32 and 64 JVM on the same machine

    Hello
    I wanted to know if by installing both 32 and 64 JVM (on a 64 bit system, of course), would cause any damage. I have installed the 64 version, but Eclipse doesn't want to start at all, so i was hoping to make it work my installing a 32 bit version and making eclipse use it.
    I am not sure how this will affect everything, because i will be using Jboss and Glassfish.

    Then please post into the CodePlex issues

  • How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS

    How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS. Already installed oracle Database 10g in my notebook.
    It is working good.
    please help me this issue.
    please give the steps..............
    Thanks
    Rajeev

    Hello Frank,
    for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
    Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
    What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
    Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
    Best regards,

  • Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g in same machine

    I have Oracle 9i in a machine. I wanted to install Oracle 10g in the same machine.
    I tried installed, and Oracle 10g worked ok.
    I have the following problems:
    1. Oracle 9i is not starting up. {Oracle 9i Intelligent Agent Failure on startup}
    2. I need to use Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g simultaneously.
    If any one have experianced this please help to resolve the issue.
    Thanks in advance.
    Srini

    You must use 2 different homes, and later you have to take care of your environment variables, and you must use only one listener in this case the highest version that is 10g.
    Tell us: did you install in the same ORACLE_HOME?
    Give us details.

    but After installation of database it work properly.
    there is no problem.
    but when I try to run from through web(by using oracle 9ias)

    i check and find that my appache server for 9ias is working properly and in services of windows 2000 no error comes.
