I'm attempting to perform a silent install of the Oracle 9i Client on a box running Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition. The last few lines in installActions2005-04-08_03-51-20PM.log are as follows:

isAdmin = false

Error :*** Alert: The system does not meet the following requirement for installing Oracle9i Client:
- You do not have Administrator privileges on this machine.  ***
User selected: Yes/OK

The problem is, the user *does* have adminstrator privileges.

If anyone has any ideas, I'd be glad to hear them. Thanks! Received on Fri Apr 08 2005 - 16:22:47 CDT
