I need to work on oracle 6i developer. I have oracle 8i enterprise edition on my PC. I also found a free download for oracle developer/server 6i. I was wondering if that is the right download and how it is to be configured.
I really need help on this.Plz guide me if I can get any fre download of 6i developer.
Thank you.

It is the previous version of Developer ( 9i is out now)
...Without knowing more about how you intend to use it ( at least on what OS) it
is difficult to advise more..

It will need a separate home and, therefore, you may need to uninstall your 8i stuff before installing Developer 6i..( The 6i installer may not 'know' about multiple homes)

But, as I noted, with out more info, I cannot tell..

hi,

I have been trying to install oracle 6i report builder package on Windows 2000.

I already had oracle 8i Enterprise edition on my PC in c:\Oracle.

While installing Oracle 6i report builder it asked for Oracle home settings for that installation session.I entered that as c:\Oracle\dev and after installing this...SQL plus topped opening..it says SP1<lang>.msb file not found. I cannot connect o the database even thru the reports builder as in giving the username pasword and the host string.When I try to connect it says TNS listener error.
What should I do no?
Plz help me.
