    Question

    Please help !

    I can't install Designer 6 on 8i.

    Installer wants to be installed into default oracle8i home but
    there is oracle8i and if i create another oracle_home it won't
    install in it !!???

    What to do ?
    How to manage that problem ?

    i get this message

    Oracle7 Utiltites doesnot support multiple installations, and therefore can't be installed on 'OraHome8'. it can only be installed on 'OraHome81'.
    In order to install Oracle7 Utitlites , Please run the Orqacle Installer again, and select 'OraHome81' as the target location.

    what's the meaning for the previous message and from where can i run oracle installler to add 'Oracle 7 Utitilites'

    PLS explain in detailes because i'm beginer in this matters
    thanks in advance

    Do you have an Oracle 7 instance running on your server?

    Are you prompted for a different Oracle Home for Designer?

    Hi,

    I think designer doesn't permit multi homes. Then the best solution is deinstall all oracle software, then install designer and after install the other Oracle Software you want.

    Hope this helps

    aarroyob,

    Designer cannot be installed in the same Oracle Home as say, an instance of Personal Oracle running on the same server.

    I don't understand the message about Oracle 7 Utilities.

    Hi,

    I don`t understand the initial question very well as you David.

    Anyway if you want to install in the same server Oracle 8i and Designer 6i, you must to install first the software of designer and after in a different Oracle Home the software of Oracle 8i.

    Thanks and regards

    Angel

It doesn´t support multiple Oracle Homes, then is the first candidate to install on the server :-)

    Buuuf, my english .... I hope it will be comprehensible :-)

    Thanks and regards

    Angel,

    Your suggestion of completely removing everything and reinstalling seems like the best idea.

    The message about Oracle 7 Utilities doesn't make sense though.
