Workstations are either W2K or XP with existing ORACLE7 client:
1.
Connect to client workstation through either VNC or TS
2. Find and change
map from TRADE (TWS & DATA) to NETSHARE with full control
3. Open
explorer and remove directories:
*:\ORANT or *:\ORAWIN95
*:\program
files\common files\borland
4. Open Registry and remove keys
HKLM |
SOFTWARE | BORLAND
HKLM | SOFTWARE | ORACLE
5. Open SYSEDIT and remove
PATH=
C:\ORANT\BIN from autoexec if
exists.
6. Open Explorer and check cd name
'C' = Client install Cd
'S' = Server install cd
7. Open CD and run Setup.exe
Note: if the
Microsoft.net framework needs to
be installed - then install - the
client portion of the install will begin
after the .net framework installs.
8. Choose COMPLETE if installing to C:\
Choose CUSTOM if other
Note: be mindful that the install shield prompts you
to finish BEFORE Oracle
is actually finished installing. Do not click FINISH
until the oracle is done.
Watch performance monitor for CPU activity - you
can also watch the *:\DOUGLAS...\ORACLE
folder for directories to appear.
==============================================================
TROUBLESHOOT:
If a DOS window opens and displays error: THE SYSTEM CAN
NOT FIND THE
SPECIFIED PATH
c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe, then close the DOS box.
You
will see the INstall Shield attempt to finish the installation - click FINISHED.
This will copy the DOUGLAS folder onto the C:\ drive and the Oracle folder
will be incomplete. If this happens or if the Oracle client fails to
install via Install Shield, then install Oracle manually.
From CD:
Open ORACLE9CLIENT\INSTALL\WIN32\SETUP.EXE
Make sure to change the install
destination path to *:\DOUGLAS\ORACLE
Make sure to install STANDARD client -
it defaults to ADMINISTRATOR
