Oracle Database Discussions

Hello,

I am attempting to install the Oracle 11gR2 Instant Client using the UI on 32-bit XP. There are ten of these machines, and each is a fresh install of XP. This is the error:

*SEVERE: [FATAL] [INS-32025] The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed in the given Oracle home.*
CAUSE: The chosen installation conflicted with software already installed in the given Oracle home.
ACTION: Install into a different Oracle home.
INFO: Advice is ABORT


Oracle has never been installed on these computers. So, there shouldn't be any conflict. I'm attempting to do an unattended installation using a DOS script. I'm using the .rsp file I created while installing on one of the machines using the GUI. BTW, I don't get this error when using the GUI, only while trying to do an unattended installation.

This is the part of the script that calls the UI:

setup.exe -silent -nowait -responseFile c:\client.rsp

I'm firing off this script via Remote Desktop, does that make a difference? I don't have physical access to these hosts.

Remember, these are fresh installations of XP, there isn't anything installed to create the conflict.

My OracleHome is C:\app\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
