Net 8 and SQL * NET 2.3

I did not follow this thread from the beginning but…

There was a ‘bug’ when SQLNet8 was released which was preventing it from
coexisting on the same machine where SQL
Net 2.3 was. I encountered this
issue myself and figured out that deinstalling 2.3 was the solution to this
problem. BO worked quite well with Net*8 afterwards.

If you need to have both versions, you may try installing them in 2
different locations (something like c:\orawin23 and c:\orawin8) and have the
ORACLE_HOME variable in your AUTOEXEC.BAT set to the version of SQL*NET you
use by default. Create a batch to switch ‘homes’.

My 2 cents.

I’m not recommending this as THE solution. I did have a similar
problem at
a site a few weeks ago. We ended up making sure the TNSNAMES file was the
same for Net 8 and SQLNet and it all seemed to work. Even though BO was
using SQL
Net, it seemed to be getting the TNSNAMES file from the Net8
directory.

I am trying to Install 8.0.5 and I am having all kinds of problems. I
have even installed net 8 and sqlnet 2.3 on different folders, but still
I am not able to access BO. But I can access the database using SQL
Plus.
