Re: Installing Designer 6i

[Quoted] Hi Joni,

[Quoted] Check out the Designer 6i installation guide. Designer 6i requires the repository to be installed to use the Designer product. The repository product requires at a minimum, Oracle 8i standard edition when the designer client and database server are on separate machines. If the the client and server are on the same machine, Oracle 8i Enterprise is required. Once again, an example of Oracle coming through for their users. Below is the text from the designer installation guide chapter 1:

This release of Oracle Designer supports the following client/server configurations:

Client and server on separate machines  

Repository platform
 Server operating system
 Client operating system  

Oracle8i Server, Release 8.1.6 Enterprise Edition  Certified Oracle database server platforms are suitable (see Release Notes)
 Windows NT or Windows 95 or Windows 98

Client and server on the same machine  

Repository platform
 Operating system  

Oracle8i Server, Release 8.1.6 Standard Edition  Windows NT
