RE: Installing different versions of Oracle on NT server

One method that I am familiar with is this.

Install each version of Oracle to a different path (i.e. d:\orant\734 and d:\orant\806). Use two different users to manage the two version (i.e. Oracle7 and Oracle8). Set the ORACLE_HOME and other environment variables for each user appropriately. In the startup parameters for each Oracle service specify the appropriate user account to startup the service (instead of the system account).

There are other methods that involve using batch scripts but I think this is a little cleaner.

Hi All ,

I have a problem in my hand I need solution for doing alternative arrangements.

Is it possible to have two diferent versions of Oracle installed on a single Windows NT server with two different instances of Databases running ( One for each version ) .

We referred to Oracle Manuals and Books but is is not clear.

If somebody has done that before , If you can guide us it would be helpful.

Thanking you in advance
