Answer:
Oracle 9.2 Client software requires that you give the Authenticated
User privilege to the Oracle Home by following these steps:
1. Log on to Windows as a user with Administrator privileges.
2. Launch Windows Explorer from the Start Menu and and navigate to
the ORACLE_HOME folder. This is typically the "Ora92"
folder under the "Oracle" folder (i.e. D:\Oracle\Ora92).
3. Right-click on the ORACLE_HOME folder and choose the
"Properties" option from the drop down list. A
"Properties" window should appear.
4. Click on the "Security" tab of the "Properties"
window.
5. Click on "Authenticated Users" item in the
"Name" list (on Windows XP the "Name" list is
called "Group or user names").
6. Uncheck the "Read and Execute" box in the
"Permissions" list under the "Allow" column (on
Windows XP the "Permissions" list is called
"Permissions for Authenticated Users").
7. Re-check the "Read and Execute" box under the
"Allow" column (this is the box you just unchecked).
8. Click the "Advanced" button and in the "Permission
Entries" list make sure you see the "Authenticated
Users" listed there with:
Permission = Read & Execute
Apply To = This folder, subfolders and files
If this is NOT the case, edit that line and make sure the "Apply
onto" drop-down box is set to "This folder, subfolders and
files". This should already be set properly but it is important
that you verify this.
9. Click the "Ok" button until you close out all of the
security properties windows. The cursor may present the hour glass
for a few seconds as it applies the permissions you just changed to
all subfolders and files.
10. Reboot your computer to assure that these changes have taken effect.
Re-execute the application and it should now work. |
