Re: Designer 6i & Oracle 8.1.6 on same machine

Gentlemen,

[Quoted] [Quoted] Oracle Repository Designer 6i Installation Guide Release 2 says:

"...
Multiple Oracle Homes

Oracle Repository Designer 6i release 2 can recognize and work with multiple Oracle home directories. Thus it is possible to install Oracle Repository Designer 6i release 2 into any Oracle home directory on a client workstation. However, if Oracle8i is already installed on the same machine (see the next section), ensure that you install Oracle Repository Designer 6i release 2 into a different Oracle home.
..."

So, I wouldn't recommend to install Designer 6i & Oracle 8.1.6 on same machine.

Thanks.
