Unattended instalation of 10g Client with response file

Hello,
I want to create a response File for an unattended installation, because installing 10g on 150 clients by hand is just to much work...
I tried to create a rsp.-file with the record option, no dice.
I managed to install the client runtime, but now I also need a custom installation with Oracle Windows Interface & Oracle Call Interface.
Any suggestions?
THX in advance

@Madrid
It tried to create a response file with "setup -record -responseFile C:\test.rsp", it records settings like the OraHome, but theres no entry about WHAT products I want to install, I heard that this is a known Bug in 10g Realse 2 10.2.0.1 ?
@orafad
our software developer told me we need the following components:
Oracle Client Runtime
Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server
Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle ODBC Driver
Oracle Provider for OLE DB
Oracle Data Provider for .Net
I tried to customize the clientcustom.rsp from the Oracle-CD, but I don't know what names I have to use for the things I need?
e.g. oracle.rdbms.oci:10.2.0.1.0 for the Oracle Call Interface (OCI), but whats the name for Data Provider for .Net?? :(
maybe somebody could post an recorded RSP-file?
thanks for your help

  • Install Oracle 11g 2 with response file

    Using the steps detailed here:
    http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/install.112/e24187/advance.htm I was able to create a response file for Oracle client 11.2.0.1.win32.  I created the response file by starting a manual installation (On a Windows 7 client) and then clicking on the option to create and save a response file.  I exited out of the Oracle install before completing it.
    I then used this response file  during a Windows 7 unattended install using this at the command prompt:  setup.exe -silent -nowelcome -nowait -noconfig - responseFile [location]
    My question is how do I set up variables in the response file so that it will work on installs for other users?
    # This variable holds the hostname of the system as set by the user.
    # It can be used to force the installation to use an alternative 
    # hostname rather than using the first hostname found on the system
    # (e.g., for systems with multiple hostnames and network interfaces). ORACLE_HOSTNAME=[HOW DO I SETUP A VARIABLE HERE FOR THE USER'S PCNAME?]
    # Complete path of the Oracle Home  ORACLE_HOME=C:\app\[HOW DO I SETUP A VARIABLE FOR THE USER's FOLDER HERE?]\product\11.2.0\client_1
    # Complete path of the Oracle Base. ORACLE_BASE=C:\app\[HOW DO I SETUP A VARIABLE FOR THE USER's FOLDER HERE?]
    What variables can I use so that I can use a single response file for multiple users?

    I know no way of doing so, but I am not a Windows expert. For the last two parameters (ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_BASE), it is best practice to have these values the same across multiple machines, for ease of maintainability - think of future maintenance scripts you will likely have to write - if these parameters are the same across many computers, your scripting would be much easier/simpler/cleaner

    Well, from our .rsp files for Database Client installs:
    oracle.client:DEPENDENCY_LIST={"oracle.winprod:10.2.0.1.0"}
    oracle.winprod:DEPENDENCY_LIST={"oracle.odbc:10.2.0.1.0"}
    # ODBC
    #oracle.winprod:DEPENDENCY_LIST={"oracle.odbc:10.2.0.1.0"}

    # ODP.NET för .NET v1
    #oracle.winprod:DEPENDENCY_LIST={"oracle.ntoledb.odp_net:10.2.0.1.0"}
    If you need ODP for .NET v2, you should complement the Oracle Home with install from ODAC 10.2.0.2.x (what a mess, isn't it).

  • 10g client with Toad - why bother?

    Hi.
    I am doing several installations of 10g client yet to get access to the db the machines will use Toad. What does the "light" client contain? Must every machine actually have the client installed? To access the db with Toad / SQL*Plus - what does the client contain that makes it necessary to install beforehand?
    DA

    Some application use JDBC connection instead of native Oracle SQLNet connection. In that case, Oracle client installation is not required.
    Some tools support both types of connection for example SQL Developer,
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/sql_developer/index.html
    Oracle Instant Client Light (English) support different kinds of connectString, for example,
    As an SQL Connect URL string, of the form: //host:[port][service name]
    As an Oracle Net keyword-value pair. For example:
    (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp) (HOST=myserver111) (PORT=5521))
    (CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=bjava21)))
    As an entry in the tnsnames.ora file.
    So you don't have to configure tnsnames using netca in this case.

  • What is the official procedure to install a 10g-Client on SLES10

    Hi,
    we are having a server running SuSE SLES10 and we need to have it access a 10g database.
    We had a look at the certification-matrix and found that the combination
    SLES10/10g-Client is supported by Oracle.
    We know this now, but the installer obviously does not:
    snip
    # /home/oraclient/client/runInstaller
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    Checking installer requirements...
    Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4,
    UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
    Failed <<<<
    Exiting Oracle Universal Installer, log for this session can be found at
    snip
    Although I found a way to circumvent the problem (I edited /etc/SuSE-release before installation, changed it back after inst.) - I am eager to know whether anyone
    can point me out any "official" Oracle-Page describing how to install.
    The installation guide does not help. I searched the forum and found you can
    start the installer with -nosysprereqs.
    But where can I find official information how to install? The problem is that I have to document everything I do, and this documentation is monitored closely, so I do not want to use any tricks that are NOT explained in a whitepaper or something similar. I
    have to show that what I did is supported.
    Any help welcome
    Arno

    You are right, installation guides (and corresponding check routines) are sometimes not up-to-date. Always check Release Notes for newer (and official) statements:

  • Oracle 10g client with 11g ODBC.

    We have the Oracle 10g client on users PCs to use the 10g ODBC to connect to a 10g (10.2.0.4.0) database. Now we are upgrading to an Oracle 11g database, 11.2.0.3.0. Is it possible to install the 11g ODBC drivers onto the users PCs without installing the full Oracle 11g client?

    Unless you want to go down the Instant Client path, no.
    However, there is probably no need to do anything to the clients. Any version of the 10g client should have no difficulty communicating with an 11.2 database. There is likely no need to upgrade the existing clients when the database is upgraded. The only exception would be if your application is trying to use some 11.2 feature that requires changes on the client to support-- those are pretty rare in this instance.
    You may want to roll out 11.2 clients on new machines as they come online but that's likely about all that you need to do.

  • 10g client with 8.1.7 database

    Hi,
    I have to use two databases with my PC, 10g and 8.1.7. Which client should I use, 10.2.0 or 8.1.7? Or should I Install both and let the software decide which one to use?
    Hoping answers,
    Mark

    MarkHi and welcome to the forum!
    Why you've installed both clients to one machine? To which database are you connecting to? Oracle 8i is no longer supported. Use 10g Client to connect to your databases

  • Installing oracle 10g client

    maybe this question seem silly.
    but I am using ODP to access oracle 10.1.0.2 and i want to know how to access database from client to the database server throw ODP.
    And asking is there version called oracle 10g client should i install before install ODP or ODP that i download it is enough? and if it is enough how i can configure it to access server?

    That's from ODP.NET FAQ:
    Oracle9i Client Release 2 (9.2) or higher (included with ODP.NET installation)
    Althought the statement is for 9i, it remains true for 10g, ODP.NET has the necessary Oracle client components included.

  • Problem when install oracle 10g client on whitebox enterprise Linux 3

    I download oracle-client-10103.tar.bz2 and unzip.
    After set environment variable follow instruction
    I run runmefirst.sh, system cannot recognize the .o file.

    It is possible that you did not download the correct client.
    The file name for the 10.1.0.3 client for Linux x86 is ship.client.lnx32.cpio.gz. The Linux x86_64 client name is ship.client.lnxx86-64.cpio.gz .
