Solution Description

--------------------

NOTE:  This problem DOES NOT exist in the Oracle10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0) and

later client software for Windows.  If you think you are are running

into a similar issue on 10.2.0.1.0 or later software, please see the

"References" section below for other possible solutions.

There are two ways to resolve this problem:

SOLUTION 1 - If you must remain on the current version of the client software

this solution will step you through the manual process for

fixing the permissions problem.

SOLUTION 2 - If you are able to patch your client software to a later version

this solution will advise you on what patch to apply to resolve

this problem.

NOTE - If you are using the Oracle10g Instant Client you MUST follow

SOLUTION 1.

SOLUTION 1

==========

Oracle 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) in Oracle9iR2

or

- the "Client_1" folder under the "Oracle\product\10.1.0" folder

(i.e. D:\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Client_1) in Oracle10gR1

or

- the "Db_1" folder under the "Oracle\product\10.1.0" folder

(i.e. D:\Oracle\product\10.1.0\Db_1) in Oracle10gR1

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.

NOTE: If you are running Windows XP and do not have a "Security" tab

please do the following:

(a) Open "Folder Options" in your Control Panel.

(b) Choose the "View" tab.

(c) Under "Advanced Settings" uncheck the option "Use simple file

sharing (Recommended)".

The "Security" tab should now be available.

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.  You must REBOOT YOUR COMPUTER to assure that these changes have taken

effect.  Failure to do this can prevent this procedure from working!

11.  Re-execute the application and it should now work.

NOTE: If the problem is still present after following steps 1-11 and

rebooting your computer in step 10 you should perform. the following

two additional permissions settings at step 8 as described below.

This may be necessary due to permissions that have been configured

beyond the standard permissions setup when the OS was originally

installed:

12.  If the problem is still present, go back through these same 11 steps

above, but when performing step 8 additionally check both boxes entitled

"Inherit from parent the permission entries that apply to child

objects.  Include these with entries explicitly defined here."

AND

"Replace permission entries on all child objects with entries shown

here that apply to child objects"

AND be sure to reboot in step 10.

release notes for more information on how to install the patch onto

client software.

Explanation

-----------

If you install Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.1.0) or Oracle10g Release 1

(10.1.0.2.0) client software on a computer running Windows with an NTFS

partition, the contents of ORACLE_HOME directory will not be visible to users

who are authenticated on that machine.  These permissions were not set properly

when the software was installed.

Applications that were working fine with previous versions of Oracle software

will stop working when they upgrade to Oracle 9.2 or 10.1.

NOTE: The application will continue to work if it runs as the Administrator

of the machine.

Any application that is using the Authenticated User or possibly another

privilege will not work.  A notable example would be IIS which might service

some of the requests based on the Authenticated User privileges.

To demonstrate the problem in further detail, you can log on to the operating

system as an authenticated machine user.  You won't be able browse the contents

of the ORACLE_HOME directory demonstrating your inability to load any Oracle

DLLs or make a connection.

Additional Information

----------------------

The above error messages may not only be encountered when using Oracle 9.2 or

10.1 client software but may also exist when running into general permissions

issues using third party products accessing Oracle on a Windows platform.
