Hi there,

I got an error stating that 'certain files which need to be reinstalled by oracle universal installer are being used by one or more running services' when I was installing Oracle Data Access for Windows Release 9.2.0.7.0. In the error it listed over 30 services that need to be shutdown.

I was wondering did anybody have this problem before and if so, do they know which one of the services needs to be shutdown as I don't think all 30 of them need to be shutdown.

Have you red all the post install instructions ?

Also
Do not install ODAC over a previous Oracle Home version (e.g. Oracle8i) if you have applications dependent on the older Oracle Home and are not certified with the newer Oracle version. For example, some versions of the Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle (MSDAORA) may not work with the newest versions of the Oracle client.
