On 64-bit Windows 10 Enterprise, I was asked to install win32_11gR2_client. But I encountered the following problems.
When I run setup.exe in the top directory temporarily as an administrator, I got the following warning message:
[INS-13001] Environment does not meet minimum requirements. Are you sure you want to continue?
It then created a log under the path of the administrator user, and I as a regular user don't know how to see it.
I tried https://stackoverflow.com/a/49935363, but it didn't work:
Right click on the setup.exe for the Oracle 11g 32-bit client, and select Properties. Select the Compatibility tab, and set the Compatibility mode to Windows 7. Click OK to close the Properties tab. Double click setup.exe to install the client.
Since it was a warning, I was still able to continue the installation, and I chose Instant Client to install.
After the installation, I ran ODBC Administrator as an administrator of the OS, and attempted to create a system DSN, where I selected Oracle in OraClient11g_home1 as the driver, but the dropdown list for TNS Service Name consists of unrecognizable names.
I was wondering how I could solve the problems (the second problem in particular).
Thanks.
