Have inherited a project at work that installs a variety of things, including the Oracle Client 11g R2, which I'm assuming is also called “Oracle Database Client”.
The project was developed for Windows 10 and used the 32 bit install for the Oracle Client.
We need to get the install working on Windows 11. Right now the install doesn't work. Hangs during the install of the 11g R2 client and never finishes that installation. The Oracle install log file indicates the install gets to the point where it's trying to register various DLLS, but just stalls at that point and never completes.
Based on what I've read online, it appears we need to upgrade that 11g R2 client to version 19c. Wondering if someone can confirm that?
Info I'm basing this on is on this page: https://docs.oracle.com/en/database/oracle/oracle-database/19/ntcli/software-requirements.html.
Relevant info appears to be in 'Table 2-3 Windows x64 Software Requirements', under 'Operating System' section:
Windows 11 x64 - Pro, Enterprise, and Education editions and Windows Server 2022 x64 - Standard, Datacenter, and Essentials editions are supported starting with Oracle Database 19c Release Update (19.13) or later.
Looking for someone to confirm that so I know what version of the product I should be starting with for the install. Thank you!
