Hi Bambi-

You have my utmost sympathies. I've had to support this wonderful product before. The reason for
the clean system is that even the lastest release (7.1) is still based on Oracle 8.0.5 which did not
support a multi homed machine. Any ADI install I've had to due, I automatically cleans the machine
and start with ADI first. Isn't MS a "wonderful" OS?

Friends --

Lately I've been relegated to the deepest recesses of the dark murky depths of Oracle's product line. I see you blithely exchanging DBA mail and look on longingly, pining for the fjords, as it were. But I digress.

If you every have to install ADI on a PC, make sure it doesn't have any Oracle products installed on it. Make sure there are no Oracle directories either in C: or in C:\Program Files. If you do, you will not be able to install ADI, and must deinstall all existing Oracle products before installing ADI, which, graciously, comes with SQL*Plus and SQL*Net. Everything else needs to be reinstalled. Oh, and that old TNSNAMES.ora file you have hanging around, it don't mean anything to ADI.

I just can't fathom why Oracle would do this to itself. I hope its foot starts feeling better soon.

Bambi.
