The problem :

 E:\oracle\App\product\11.1.0\client_1>sqlplus.exe -VERBOSE

 E:\oracle\App\product\11.1.0\client_1>

No output whatsoever. All applications using this version of client fails

What I want : to have a SQL prompt or at least ask to a password.

The situation :

The server I'm working on is in fact a VMWare guest host (Windows 2003).
I've set up the sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora at the right values. There is another Oracle Client on a previous version 9.2 installed somewhere else.

I've used to install the ODAC at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/dotnet/utilsoft.html

http://download.oracle.com/otn/other/ole-oo4o/ODTwithODAC1110720.zip

Constraints :

This server is for production purpose so reboot are to kept at minimum. I do not know if I'm allowed to touch the other version - so I assume I may not deinstall it

What I've already tried : reinstalling the client after following a complete cleanup.

Thanks for help

Can you verify that the correct executable is being called? Eg. check the path variable, or specify the full path to the sqlplus.exe. Also verify the ORACLE_HOME variable. Do the other client binaries work, say tnsping? – Roy Nov 2 '09 at 15:49
Falling back to the previous version made everything in order again. Thanks for help – Johan Buret Nov 10 '09 at 15:33
