Re: Oracle 8i R3, and 9i R2 on Same NT Box
Yes I am here running 8.1.7 and 9i Release 1 ( not release 2) on the same Windows 2000 Server Box. So far so good, this is my test machine.

RE: Oracle 8i R3, and 9i R2 on Same NT Box
I am currently running 8.1.5, 8.1.7, 9.0.1.2 and 9.2 on the same Win2k Pro machine. I rarely have more than 2 running at the same time due to memory considerations, but I have not encountered any problems related to install/runtime. I always make sure I install in order of oldest to newest. I also do the once a year cleaning (reformat c:\ and reinstall everything...). Dan Fink -Original Message- Sent: Monday, September 30, 2002 11:39 AM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Yes, I am. I needed an 8i client because some programs still can't talk 9i. The only issues I've run into are with the products themselves. Some Quest products have problems with multiple Oracle Homes. Their solution is to hack the Registry to make the LAST_ORACLE_HOME the one to point the Quest products to. Obviously, this is a hack and the product should be fixed, but you should at least be aware of the issue. Other than that, I *highly* recommend NEVER uninstalling ANY Oracle product on Windows if you are also working with ODBC or 3rd party tools. I've only had success wiping out all Oracle Homes and reinstalling. Granted, my WinTuke (Win2K) box is mostly used as a client. Servers may be different. Just my $0.02...

Re: Oracle 8i R3, and 9i R2 on Same NT Box
This is interesting. I have installed and run multiple Oracle versions on the same Unix box but not NT.
