> Hi friends,

> Did you try to install an Oracle Discoverer 3.1 on the same NT Server

>
> On the fist Oracle Installer screen ('Oracle Installation Settings') I have

> Name: 'OraHome81'
> Location: 'F:\Oracle\Ora81'
> Language: 'English'

> But, I've got an error message during the Oracle Discoverer installation:
> "The location specified, 'F:\Oracle\Ora81', is already used as an Oracle
> home for 'Oracle 816 Production'. It cannot be used as an Oracle home for
> 'nt'". Then the installation was abnormally interrupted, meaning it cannot

> documentation says that Oracle Discoverer can be installed into DEFAULT_HOME
> only.

> When I've changed the Name string into DEFAULT_HOME and the Location string

> As a result, I stuck right over here...

> I have found an empty registry file in my ORACLE_HOME\Orainst
> ('F:\Oracle\Ora81\Orainst') directory called 'Oracle 816 Production.rgs'.
> Definitely, the Oracle Installer formed its first error message using
> this filename.
> When I renamed the file, the Discoverer eventually has been installed
> into my default ORACLE_HOME but became unavailable for a connection.
> Many new files have appeared in the 'F:\Oracle\Ora81\Orainst', previously
> there was only the empty registry one.
>
> I have uninstalled the Discoverer.
>
> Are there any restrictions to run Oracle Discoverer and Oracle Server on the
> same box? (I think - shouldn't be).
> Should I install Oracle Discoverer first, and then Oracle Enterprise Server?
> Should I install Oracle Discoverer on Oracle Personal Edition?
> (Right now I need these products for my presentations only).
>
> Any suggestions/help/advice would be very appreciated.
> Thanks at advance.
