I need to support two applications.. one uses forms45/reports25 and the other is forms6i (developer 6i). What do i have to do to get both to install on my machine so I can use both versions?


I had to do this once before with an older version of developer 6 but I dont remember the gyrations I had to go through to get it to work..

thanks
 
Just install them into separate homes and tune appropriate tnsnames.ora/sqlnet.ora files.
 
I've got 4.5 and 6i in the same home with no noticable side effects.
 
i dont remember the exact problem when I tried to install, it seems like the 6i installer would not let me choose a different oracle home. I even tried renaming the existing oracle registry keys and then install into a new oracle home, that gave me two homes, but then neither of the clients would work...
