Ashoke,

    I can't speak for SUN, but as far as I know HP is the same way.  You need to
install into a seperate ORACLE_HOME.  For me that's /ora1/817 for 6.1.7 and
/ora1/816 for 8.1.6.

Greetings,

I was trying to install oracle 8.1.6 on a Sun Solaris(2.7) box.

But I get an error saying that you cannot install 8.1.6 when you have already
installed 8.1.7 in this box.

I was under impression that you can install a lower version of Oracle in the
same box.

Could you please confirm this.

Thanks,
Ashoke
