Hello to all, I'm installing windchill 11 on a machine but the db is on another server.
During the PSI error: The directory that you selected for ORACLE_HOME does not exist or is invalid.
My directory is: E: \ app \ oracle \ product \ 12.1.0 \ client_1 I have configured client oracles pointing to the oracle on the DB machine and relaunched the PSI installation but I still have the same error.
I do not understand where I'm wrong and how to fix it. Can someone help me?
Thanks
Davide
Solved! Go to Solution.
When you have the database running on a different machine, you have to follow a two step process for installation.
1. You need to run PSI on the database machine and create a database. This is by selecting the option, install standalone component and create database and user. This can also be done manually using Oracle dbca/
2. Once the dabase is created, run the PSI on the application machine, install the solution by selecting the option connect to existing database
