I need to install the Oracle 18c client on a VM with Windows 10. I´ve already downloaded the client files, but there´s no have any setup.exe inside the folders. Can someone help me? I need only to copy the files for my computer and to set the register? How can i do that?
Regards
Either you have downloaded Oracle (full) Client but your download has failed and you need to download again the installation media.
Or your download has succeeded and you have downloaded Oracle Instant Client: in this case there is no setup.exe and you only need to follow this

I am trying to install the Oracle 12c 64bit client on a Windows 10 64bit PC. Whenever I run the setup it just quickly pops up a DOS window then immediately closes it. No error messages, nothing.
I know there are a few command line switches to ignore the prereq checking, but they don't appear to do anything.
Any tips are greatly appreciated...
The big question is 'what do you want the client for'? Most users can just unzip the Oracle Instant Client package(s) and not need to run an installer. If the tools (not the OS) you use are 64-bit then install the 64-bit Instant Client from here, otherwise if the tools are 32-bit then install the 32-bit Instant Client from here. Generic instructions are at the foot of each page, but check whether your tool etc has its own specific instructions.
The next question is do you really need the old 12c client? Since 19c Oracle Client libraries (including those in Oracle Instant Client) can connect to Oracle Database 11.2 or later, you can probably install the latest-and-greatest Instant Client (or "full" Oracle Client if you really need it).
Try opening up a command prompt in the same directory as the Setup.exe file you are attempting to run, then just run the executable from the command line. This should hopefully show what is popping up in the command prompt.
Another option to try is right clicking on the Setup.exe file and selecting Run as Administrator.
Check following folders and delete them, if existing:
%ProgramFiles%\Oracle\Inventory
%TEMP%\deinstall*
%TEMP%\OraInstall*
%TEMP%\CVU*
Then open a Command Line window as Administrator and start setup.exe from there - perhaps you get more information.
After installation have a look at %TEMP%\OraInstall* there you should find a detailed log file.
Make sure you are running the executable from a local drive, not a removeable drive or mapped drive.
Make sure you have the Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable installed.
Switches for Oracle Client Install procedure
setup.exe -ignoreSysPrereqs
That is to ignore higher version of Windows when install old Oracle Client.

I am using an Excel VBA application to connect to an Oracle 12c database.
Excel is 2010, 32 bit, in Windows 7.
Many have advised Oracle Instant Client, but this has not worked for me. The installation requires a number of configuration steps that I cannot perform due to administrative restrictions on my workstation.
However, I have installed the ODAC 12.2c Release 1 and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (12.2.0.1.0), available HERE. This package includes the Oracle ODBC driver which works for my application. However, it contains several other components that I do not need, and throws some errors during installation that are disconcerting.
Can anyone tell me which of the following components I actually need to select in order to get the ODBC Driver?
Since I cannot get InstantClient to work with my companies restrictions, I'm now aiming to use this package, but hopefully to slim it down to just the component I need. I'm doing trial and error, but it's messy. The installation takes a long time and there's no uninstaller, so I have to manually delete the files after installation.
Thanks for any help you can provide!
The smallest solution is to download the
Instant Client Package - ODBC: Additional libraries for enabling ODBC applications (instantclient-odbc-nt-12.2.0.1.0-2.zip)
from Instant Client Downloads for Microsoft Windows 32-bit
You can also download the ODAC with Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio from ODAC Developer Downloads - Oracle Universal Installer
Get the full 32-bit Oracle client installer (not the ODAC) from here:
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/oracle12c/122010/win32_12201_client.zip
Do an silent install using this reponse file (edit as needed and save as client_install_32.rsp in the same directory as setup.exe)
Response file
setup.exe" ORACLE_HOME_NAME=OracleClient12201x32 -waitforcompletion -nowait -silent -responseFile client_install_32.rsp
The key config entry is this:
oracle.install.client.customComponents="oracle.rdbms.oci:12.2.0.1.0","oracle.network.client:12.2.0.1.0","oracle.odbc:12.2.0.1.0"
I need oracle client 11g for using Toad.
My OS is windows 7.
To install oracle client 11g, I downloaded it from oracle site.
When i installed that, there was error that didn't install.
So I searched solution, and found it.
http://msutic.blogspot.kr/2009/08/how-to-instal-oracle-client-11g-on.html
But the problem is that there is no file that call "prereq" in stage folder.
I attach capture my situation.
enter image description here
how can i find "prereq" folder?
I downloaded "win64_11gR2_client.zip" from oracle site.
Almost everything that needs an Oracle 'client' can use Oracle Instant Client.
You just need to know whether the application requires the 32-bit or 64-bit client. Then download the 'Basic' package and unzip it. Add the directory to PATH. On Windows you will also need the correct VS Redistributable from Microsoft installed. These are given on the Instant Client download pages, or use dumpbin /dependents oci.dll to find which Microsoft redistributable library is needed by your version of Instant Client.
Some applications may require other configuration, and/or Oracle header files. The headers are in the Instant Client SDK package.
We are trying to use ODAC Xcopy to minimize the footprint of installing Oracle 11g Client. Currently, we use the Oracle 11g Admin install (~700mb). I've tried using the ODAC Xcopy, and that works. However, the only issue I now have is that I cannot set up an ODBC on the target system by just installing the ODAC Xcopy. After installing ODAC (Windows XP fyi), I go to Control Panel-->Admin Tools-->Data Sources (ODBC)-->System DSN-->Add-->Microsoft ODBC for Oracle. I get the following error: "The Oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3 (or greater) client software installation. You will be unable to use this driver until these components have been installed." I've tried editing the registry and creating the same keys that the Oracle Admin install creates, but still no luck. I'm not sure how to get past this. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance.
Shouldn't you be using the Oracle Driver instead of the Microsoft ODBC driver? Microsoft's driver will require the SQLNet drivers which come with your full client install. There should be an additional ODBC driver available after installing the Oracle ODAC. Go to the Drivers tab of the ODBC Adminstrator and you should see something along the lines of "Oracle in OraClient11g_home1" with a version of 11.something. That's the driver you should make your DSN from. I've only used the 10g ODBC install (which could be minimally installed with a selection of "Instant Client").
HTH
I would advise you stick to the full installer, which takes care of all the configuration tasks (registry, DLL registrations, etc..), but do a custom install using a response file.
Get the correct version of Oracle client installer (not the ODAC) from here:
32-bit:
https://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/oracle11g/112010/win32_11gR2_client.zip
64-bit:
https://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/oracle11g/112010/win64_11gR2_client.zip
the Oracle client bitness has to match your executable's.
Do an silent install using this reponse file (edit as needed and save as client_install.rsp in the same directory as setup.exe)
Response file
setup.exe" ORACLE_HOME_NAME=OracleClient11201 -waitforcompletion -nowait -silent -responseFile client_install.rsp

oracle.install.client.customComponents="oracle.rdbms.oci:11.2.0.1.0","oracle.network.client:11.2.0.1.0","oracle.odbc:11.2.0.1.0"
I've tried to install "Oracle10g Release 2 ODAC (64-bit) 10.2.0.3 for Windows x64" from:

can anyone direct me to a version that i can install the latesr version of ODP.NET for Windows 2008 server 64bit?
Best regards,
Guy Bertental
It's a really tricky. Before installing ODP.NET you need to already have working connection setup to oracle database. That means:
Step 1:
Oracle install client (never succeeded with that, not recommended) or Oracle client (succeeded on Win7 ultimate 64bit, file win64_11gR1_client.zip, installed with "Runtime" option selected). After client install make sure you can connect. From command line try "tnsping yourtnanamesentry" to check if tnsnames is ok, and after that "sqlplus username/pwd#yourtnsnamesentry" to check if you know valid user and password and really can connect. Memorize or write down oracle home name and path you choosed during install.
Step 2:
Install ODP.NET (I did with file ODAC1110720.zip). Use exactly the same oracle home name, but different path during installation.
Step 3: try connecting with visual studio. For "server name" I used this: "oraclexe:1521/xe". That means I have machine called "oraclexe" which has oracle listener on port 1521, and database with instance name "xe". It's so-called "EZCONNECT" name.
I'm not sure if Step 1 is really needed or not, because maybe step3 really uses just oracle instant client.
I know, it is real pain, but this works. It took me 2 days to connect to oracle, and I had to install almost 1GB of downloaded oracle software. They could and should make that much, much, much, much easier. Like one-click install that just works. This is shame how complicated client install is.
Donwload and install Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Client (11.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (32-bit) on your development computer.
Delete former references to Oracle.DataAccess on your project.
Add the new reference pointing to this new version.
In Visual Studio, after adding the reference select it, then choose properties to check the setting. Set “Specific Version” true , then check that “Copy Local” is false.
Build your solution using ANY CPU target.
Next, prepare your server. Install Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Client (11.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) . When installing, select the RUNTIME OPTION.
Finally, deploy your solution to your server, as you always use to do. This time it should work.
The trick is to have the same ODAC version (11.2.0.1.0) on both the development and deployment enviroments. This ODAC contains the Oracle.DataAcces.Client which you should reference on your code to access classes like OracleConnection, OracleDataReader, etc.
I had problems because I had developed using ODAC 11.2.0.1.2 (32 bits, latest at this time) but there's no x64 version for this ODAC.
So, always use the latest stable ODAC version which has 32 bits and 64 bits version if you are going to develop on 32 bits and deploy on 64 bits.
Hi Ran into your problem, solution is get a copy of 10204_vista_w2k8_x64_production_client.zip (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/10204-winx64-vista-win2k8-082253.html) run this & it will install the client.
Unpack ODAC10203x64.zip then go to All Programs->OracleHome->Oracle Installation Products & run the Universal Installer. When the installer runs at the Specify Source Location browse to the Stage directory created when you unpacked ODAC10203x64.zip then install as normal.
There is a ODAC112012.zip but this will not talk to Oracle 9 dB's so the above will resolve talking to legacy dB's.
Guy- have a look at this, it may help. Getting Oracle client working is a pain at the best of times, x64 must make it harder.
I had unexpected crashes in my application using Instant Client 10.2.0.3 on Windows Server 2008 x64. After reading a few posts about the lack of support for this platform, I upgraded the client to 11.1.0.7 and it works like a charm !
So I would be surprised if ODP .NET 10.2.0.3 would be stable on Windows Server 2008 x64, if you ever managed to install it. IMHO, your options are :
use another provider (Microsoft+client v11.1, or DataDirect...).
go with the 11.1.0.7 beta version if you dare...
