Dear Group members,

I am using Oracle 10 g 10.0.2 client software to connect 9i,10g and
8i

it is working very good with the 9i and 10g..
when i trying to connect 8i server ./. it giving error

<b> "ORA-03134: Connections to this server version are no longer
supported." </b>


Can i install, 2 or more version of oracle clients in same system,
becoz .. currently using client software is well configured for some
SQL server BI agents, if i un-install current 10g client, it will
infect my software .. process..

if, it can be possible, what kind of things i take care, before
installation ..

What is the best oracle client software can suitable for most of the
server's

'8i' usually doesn't say much, but in this context it says plenty;
your '8i' database is 8.1.6 or earlier, and the 10.2 client won't
'talk' to any release earlier than 8.1.7.

You can try to upgrade your 8.1.6 database to 8.1.7 presuming you can
find the software, otherwise you'll need a 9i or 8.1.x client to
connect.
