i am using Windows 7 for my PC and i already have Oracle 6i in my PC. But somehow when i try to install Oracle 9i (personal) it gave me with an error msg : "Oracle 9i Database cannot be installed into an existing 7x or 8.0x ORACLE_HOME."
But when i try to install Oracle 9i Client into another PC (Windows 7) which do not have any other previous version of Oracle, it can run smoothly. i try to install on the same PC Oracle 9i (personal) but it just loading "in progress". Nothing happen after that. i've been waiting for the installing for more than 3 hours.
With the explanation above, does it happen because of oracle is not compatible with Windows 7 or it has any other reason?
Really need your help...
thanks.
You may have to uninstall the previous versions of Oracle before you install the new version. CoolGuy
i've try to install oracle 9i client in different machine which is not have any previous version of oracle. The software successfully be installed and run but when i try to install oracle 9i personal on the same machine it seem like the software cannot be installed. it was just loading "in progress" for more than 3 hours. i didn't know whats the problem is, whether it is because of the software does not compatible with Windows 7 or it is because of the software itself
