The 9i client will work fine with 8i databases. We had some problems upgrading the client from 8 to 9 on some Windows boxes, basically the installer doesn't do a great job of updating the registry and environment for client apps. For example Toad couldn't get to the DB's. 9i client install on a fresh machine was fine.
We didn't have any problems with client upgrades on Solaris. -----Original Message----- From: Everett, Al [mailto:AEverett@;askallied.com] Sent: Monday, October 28, 2002 10:22 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Upgrading Oracle We're getting ready to upgrade our production environment form Oracle 8.0.6 to Oracle 9.0.2. From a CF standpoint, what pitfalls should I watch out for? I assume that I should upgrade the Oracle client on each of the servers to version 9 first. Will it work okay with Oracle 8? Anything else? ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/index.cfm?forumid=4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists&body=lists/cf_talk FAQ: http://www.thenetprofits.co.uk/coldfusion/faq Your ad could be here.
