Hello:

I got an odd request today to install 8.1.7 on an existing server which is running 9.2 (Windows 2000).
Has anyone successfully been able to install Oracle 8.1.7 on the same Windows Server that already has 9.2 running? I know that if you install 8.1.7 then 9.2 both in different homes it will work, but I have never seen it work where 9.2 was installed first. I have not been able to locate a test box yet and was wondering if it is possible and if so if there are any pitfalls I should watchout for, other then the standard Windows stuff....

Thanks In advance,
Jay
