Unattended install oracle ODBC

Hi,
I'm trying to install the Oracle ODBC client on a W2K server. This server is a Terminal server. This server is being installed completely unattended. For one of our new programs on the server we need an ODBC connection to our Oracle Server. We tried the connection and it worked fine.
Now we need of course to make the installation unattended, and there comes the problem. I've been testing with responsefiles and silent install, but that gives me an error/warning that the "temporary location can not be openend. Verify the 'source'". I don't know what the message means.
Does anyone have an idea how I can do this installation without the oracle installer, or is there an easier way.
Or does anyone have a solution to this problem I'm having with the responsefile.
Thanks,
YO

Ha, got it, it should be products.html not jar that I should be looking for. readme.txt is misleading.

  • Download and installing oracle odbc driver alone

    Hi all,
    I wanted to find out if I can download just the oracle odbc driver and install in without actually installing oracle database or client version on windows PC.
    thank you

    You will need to have some Oracle software on your machine for the Oracle ODBC driver to function.
    If you can use the 10g client, you can install the 10g Instant Client and the ODBC driver. The Instant Client is a minimal set of libraries that allow components like the Oracle ODBC driver to work. The 10g client, though, is not certified to connect to databases earlier than 8.1.7.
    If you have to use an earlier version, you have to install the full Oracle client, which is not a small install, to be able to use the Oracle ODBC driver.

  • Installing Oracle ODBC driver from within another installation

    My application requires ODBC driver. Is it possible/recommended
    to install the driver from within my installation program (other
    than invokig the ODBC's setup program)? If so, what are the
    files that need to be installed, the registry entries that need
    to be updated and other activities perfromed?
    Thanks
    Michael

    In order for the ODBC driver to function properly, the Oracle
    client must have been installed on the user's machine. If the
    Oracle client has been successfully installed, users will have
    the Oracle ODBC driver.
    Since the Oracle client install is very large as installers
    go, you probably don't want to package this with your app. In
    addition, the Oracle client installation is pretty significant
    in terms of what it does, so you definitely don't want to try to
    replicate that work in your installer.

  • How to install Oracle ODBC driver...?

    TOM,
    Presently, I have oracle client version. But there no Oracle ODBC driver in my PC. But, I want to install only Oracle ODBC driver in my PC for ODBC Connectivity purpose.
    How to install & where can get the source?

    I found out the real answer!!!
    On another thread there was a link to the client 10g installation. I download that 480Meg monster. Unzipped the package and launced the setup.exe.
    You can then install just the ODBC using the custom option. But, it will not install the tnsnames.ora file. If you have ever done this from a VB app, copy the tsnnames.ora over to the \network\admin folder. It's usually under the oracle\product\client\10.0.2\ folder. Once installed you can launch the ODBC administer either from the link Oracle installs or from the control panel.
    Next, you need to make sure the folders where the .dll file is readable to the iis. Change the folder to add whatever permission group you use for iis (I happen to have setup a local users group {machinename\users}. Add them to the entire folder structure (check the embedded folders to ensure they are readable).
    While setting up the ODBC, the TSN names will now be listed from the tsnnames.ora file (if properly located). To make the connection work, the userid should be 'userid;pwd=password'. Otherwise the connection failed for me.
    Now, if your connection works okay from the odbc test connection, it will probably fail if accessing through iis (like from a .asp page). There are environment path variables that need to be set. Reboot the server for them to get set. Otherwise you will get a ODBC driver can not be loaded do to system error 1114 message.

  • Errors when installing Oracle ODBC driver

    I've been trying to install the Oracle ODBC driver version 9.2 but each and every time I tried I am getting the following error messages that are preventing the Universal Installer to install it:
    There was an error loading the following libraries:
    areasQueries
    After I hit ok, another message pops:
    There was an error loading the following libraries:
    WindowGeneralQueries
    Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this problem? I tried downloading from the otn web site various 9.2 releases, 9.2.0.2, 9.2.0.5 and 9.2.0.5.4 but all of them are giving me the same error message. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the JRE but still the same problem occurred.

    When you install the Oracle client, a base version of the Oracle ODBC driver will be installed by default (you could customize the install not to install ODBC). Before we tackle the ODBC driver patchset instll, I'd like to make sure that the basic client software installed correctly.
    - Were there any errors thrown when you tried to install the 9.2 Oracle client?
    - Once you installed the Oracle client, were you able to connect to databases via SQL*Plus?
    - Is the Oracle ODBC driver on the list of ODBC drivers in the ODBC Data Source Administrator?
    - Can you connect to databases via the base version of the ODBC driver?

    Hi All,
    I got a pre-reqs from my apps to connect to our Oracle database. I need to create a ODBC dns on my Windows XP.

    When configure your Oracle ODBC driver, open the Data Sources (ODBC) Control Panel,
    select the System DSN tab, and double-click on the appropriate data source (DSN).

    Thanks a lotDoes the machine that you are trying to configure have the Oracle client software installed?
    When installing the Oracle client software, the ODBC driver is NOT installed by default. I do a standard run-time installation, then go back and run the installer a second time, this time selecting 'custom install' - select to install in the existing ORACLE_HOME (by default it will prompt for a new one), the select to install the Windows components.

In environment, oracle 64 bit is not compitable with some of measure software they use, so need to utilize 32 bit. But they have a software 64 bit requires to have 64 bit ODBC oracle driver (not from C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe) but from administrative tools and Data Sources (ODBC).

  • Instal oracle ODBC driver

    Hello,
    I'm new to Oracle, and i have a client with a Oracle Database.
    No problem, and i started downloading the drivers...
    But unlike Drivers from other manufacturers there is no setup.exe to intal the driver.
    I've downloaded 3 differente drivers, of differente types, and there wasn't a single setup.exe, instal.exe, instal.bat or someting like that.
    How can i add a new datasource to ODBC drivers in order to connect to a Oracle 10g database?
    Thank you,
    Joaquim

    Sure Oracle is a virtual jungle with many product suits, technology, downloads and documentation so it takes a while to learn how to navigate through. Be patient and curious.
    If I google for oracle instant client odbc or use the otn secure search for instant client odbc, I quickly find the downloads pages including the one given above. E.g. the Instant Client downloads for Windows link leads to a page which lists 10.2.0.3 and packages including Instant Client Package - ODBC.
    Btw, the regular or full Database Client is a completely different beast, that sorts under Downloads -> Database. If you click on the downloads link for your platform you will find the Oracle Database 10g Client Release 2, e.g. 10201_client_win32.zip. (if you want a "complete" install using this install package you may also need ODAC for OLEDB patch and Database Patch Set for upgrade to 10.2.0.3 and maybe a ODBC fix or two - so it's a much heavier installation to handle).

  • How to install Oracle-ODBC-Driver in WAS 6.40

    Hello,
    I'm new in Netweaver/WAS. I developed a Webservice, which uses JDBC to access a oracle-Database. I use the JDBC-Driver in classes111.zip. So classes111.zip has to be in the classpath.
    For Tomcat there exists a lib-Folder, where I cant copy the driver, so that every deployed Application/Webservice etc. can use it.
    Is there such a Folder in WAS, or how can I deploy the Driver to WAS?
    Thank you,
    Chris

    Hi,
    this thread should answer your question:
    Where must I add the classe12.zip from Oracle in WebAS

  • Push Install Oracle Drivers?

    I need a way of installing Oracle ODBC drivers and/or native drivers on a mix of Windows 95, 98, NT and Windows 2000 workstations. Many of the machines are older machines with small hard drives so I need a minimum install with minimum user intervention.
    The databases being accessed are 8.1.6 version on NT servers. The end users usually want to link to our databases using Microsoft Access.
    I don't want the end user to have to seperately load the Oracle Universal Installer or make any decisions on where to install it. Just an executable they can run or something we can push with Microsoft SMS.
    Any suggestions? Please reply directly to my email address, [email protected], as well as to the forum. Thanks!

    You probably want to contact Oracle support for that. I don't recall ever seeing RDB-related downloads on OTN.

  • How do I install just the Oracle ODBC drivers on a Windows NT workstation?

    I want to access a remote Oracle database on my network via ODBC
    from Visual Foxpro. When I try to set up the ODBC data source,
    I'm told it doesn't exist. I downloaded the ODBC driver
    (ora8175.exe) from Oracle, but I cannot get it to run.
    I am new to Oracle, so any assistance you can provide will be
    greatly appreciated. (I am very familiar with VFP).
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    You have to install the Oracle client in order to be able to use
    the Oracle ODBC driver. The ODBC driver relies on, among other
    things, the network communication libraries of the Oracle client.
    If you're willing to pay for an ODBC driver, Merant (now
    DataDirect I believe) has an ODBC driver that doesn't require
    the Oracle client to be present. I've not used it, so I can't
    recommend it, but it's an option.

  • Unable to install 64-bit Oracle ODBC Instant Client on Windows 2008 R2 machine.

    I am trying to upgrade the Oracle ODBC driver from the 32-bit version currently installed (ODBC Instant Client Release 10.1.0.5.0, April 2006) to a newer 64-bit version but have not been successful.  I have had success at uninstalling and reinstalling the existing 32-bit version package (release 10.1.0.5.0) however when I've tried to install the 64-bit ODBC Instant Client (Release 12.1, December 2012), I run the odbc_install.exe application inside the package.  it appears to run without issue/compliant, but then I do not see the 64-bit Oracle ODBC driver anywhere, either if I go via the traditional Administrator Tools --> ODBC Data Sources or if I go to the c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe route.  Further investigation into the ReadMe file (ODBC_IC_Readme_Win.html) reveals that you need the 3 DLLs oci.dll, oraociei11.dll and orannzsbb11.dll which the package does not come with. Where could I obtain the correct version of these DLLs or else where can I get an installation package which already contains them?
    Any help with this is greatly appreciated.  Thank you
