Re: WebDb Installation

The following is my IMHO.
[Quoted] I don't think this is enough. When installing database packages (PL/SQL [Quoted] cartridge and WebDB itself) Installer attempts to access database by user/password, without connect string. So you have to specify LOCAL parameter in Registry in the following way: Path: <HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>\<Software>\<Oracle> String Name: LOCAL
String Value: <your connect string, as in tnsnames.ora> Machine name and port are used by listener when stating and listening, not when connecting to database. Moreover, if you install WebDB this way, you'll [Quoted] have listener installed on your machine and you'll have to have this Registry parameter set for the database containing WebDB for listener's [Quoted] proper work, because it accesses DB without connect string. At least I had to install WebDB this way.
