But why do you have to install the client into the database home?

You could install a separate client home and then dynamically link the application with that home.

Subject: RE: How to Install Oracle 12 Client in Existing Oracle Home

I was wondering the same thing. In 12.1.0.2, the Oracle Homes are slightly different, though. I have to make sure that the Pro*COBOL precompiler is there, as the application is written in COBOL.

In looking at the inventory on the special Oracle Home that I built in 2016 that includes the client, the comps.xml file is different in that it includes the client install in addition to the base install.

The problem is that I can’t just take a chance that it will work.

Perhaps I am mistaken, but isn’t the client already a part of the database software? ---

We have an application that needs to have the Oracle client installed in the same Oracle Home as the database software. Somehow, I managed to do it with Oracle 12.1.0.2, but the client installer for Oracle 12.2.0.1 won’t let me. It says there’s already Oracle software in that home and won’t let me move on.

How do I do this?

This is Oracle 12.2.0.1 on Red Hat 7 Linux.
