Where can I download the Oracle 11g client installer for Windows?


I need to install both 32 and 64 bit client for Oracle 11g but at the following links I can just find the Oracle instant client, while I need the full installer:
https://www.oracle.com/it/database/technologies/instant-client/microsoft-windows-32-downloads.html
https://www.oracle.com/it/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html

E.g.: I can find 11.2.0.4.0 version (instant client) but not the previous (11.2.0.3.0), which was available with the full installer.

At the moment it seems that Oracle has completely abandoned the full installer (now unavailable on official sites), but still useful for those who need to quickly establish connections between systems (e.g. connected servers, ODBC data sources, etc.)

I hope someone can help me


Solution

  • You can download it from the Oracle edevlivery Cloud (you need an Oracle Account in order to download it)

    It's a bit tricky to find, but you have to search for the Database 11g (11.2.0.4) and when you "check out" you have to choose which software you want to download, just uncheck Database and Clusterware, choose the platform and download your full client
