Hi,
using linux 7 x86_64, I have an oracle base /home/oracle/app/oracle, and a oracle home (12.2 standard edition 2) in /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_1.
I have to test oracle 19c
=> downloaded, runInstaller. He asked for home dir only:
next next.... and I expected to have /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/12.2.0/dbhome_2 OR /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/19.3.0/dbhome_1.
nothing at all . It seems that without any warning, oracle has overwritten the (existing) 12.2 home with v19.
Is it possible? In this case, I will have to reinstall 12.2 and all patches.
