Configuring oraparam.ini for the Development Client Installer

The Development Client installer for Tools Releases prior to 9.1 uses the Exemplar installer framework. Installation parameters for Exemplar-based installers are stored in the install.inf file. When the installer was migrated to use Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) with Tools Release 9.1, the installation parameters were moved to the oraparam.ini file.

When updating a Deployment Server to Tools Release 9.2, the oraparam.ini file is not updated from the existing install.inf file (for Exemplar-based installers) or the oraparam.ini file (for OUI-based installers prior to Tools Release 9.2.3.4). In those cases, you must manually update some settings in the Tools Release 9.2 oraparam.ini file as described in this section.

Starting with Tools Release 9.2.3.4, Server Manager performs most of the updates to the oraparam.ini file automatically when updating from Tools Releases 9.2.0.0 and later. However, some initial settings must be configured as listed below:

The oraparam.ini file resides with the OUI executable setup.exe in this directory:

<E1_dep_svr_install_directory>\OneWorld Client Install\install

The oraparam.ini file follows the standard format of ini files for Microsoft Windows and it contains sections with names inside square brackets ( [ ] ) and key/value pairs. The keys and their values are separated by equals signs ( = ).
