Cannot install Oracle 11g client with error OUI-10037 - oracle11g

I am trying to install Oracle 11g client on my box that currently has Oracle 9i installed. I keep getting this error when I click NEXT as the wizard starts:
OUI-10037:Unable to set up inventory. You may not have the proper permissions
Since I am logged in as a local Admin, this doesn't make much sense. The ONLY thing I've found on another forum was to remove the file "oraInst.loc" from my machine. But I cannot find that file anywhere on my system.
I'd really appreciate if someone can advise on a solution to this problem...
Thanks

You must run the orainstRoo.sh and then touch /oraInventory/test.txt, that works for me.
Greetings

Cannot get onto sqlitestudio.pl to install sqlite studio, got error: err: database or disk is full

I am trying to install sqlite studio and from what I have researched I have seen that I need to go to sqlitestudio.pl. However, once I navigate to the website I get an error saying: err: database or disk is full
I have downloaded the sqlite3tools and have done nothing at all with them. I have tried searching up the error to see if anyone else had the same issue as me but I have not found anything like I am experiencing. Usually, others have gotten this error using the database but as I mentioned above I have only just downloaded the tools from the sqlite official website. Does anyone know what could be the issue at hand here and could help me? I do not necessarily need sqlite studio but the GUI will be very helpful. Thank you so much ahead of time.
EDIT : So I just decided to download another tool, DBeaver as it supports SQLite and other RDB's as well so it will suit my needs. Will not mark this as solved yet just in case someone does know why this is happening and could help someone else.
The hosting server was indeed full. It is resolved now. Regardless of that, you can always reach binaries to download at GitHub releases: https://github.com/pawelsalawa/sqlitestudio/releases

BizTalk CU2 update giving error and not complete properly

Can anyone tell me why I'm getting the following error when installing BizTalk 2013 R2 CU2:
BtsDeploySystemAssemblyTask has stopped working
I might have had this same problem recently and the solution was to run the update as a different user that had more permissions and it worked.
Since the error is coming up through the SqlClient, you need to make sure the running user has high level permissions to all the databases or even the entire SQL Server Instance.
Sorry :( but since it was a single event, we had no opportunity to repro or investigate though the successful user was a fully sysadmin on SQL Server and Domain Administrator.

utPLSQL Installation: prompts

Trying to install utPLSQL I receive a lot of strange prompts, asking me for stuff such as next_script, txt_message, min_ or major_version. I can't find any coments on this in the internet and followed the guide from http://utplsql.sourceforge.net/Doc/fourstep.html. Any Ideas?
thanks a lot for your help. I'm really new to the whole oracle world and did not run it in SQLPLUS since I had trouble connecting and heard it wouldn't be neccessary. So simply running the whole thing in SQLPLUS solved it.

Can not tnsping but can sqlplus connect

I have a question hopefully someone could explain it to me. I have an Oracle 11g installed properly on the server. From a workstation, I have installed the oracle client which tnsname.ora pointed to the Oracle database. I can ping to the server where oracle db was installed. I can sqlplus connect to the database and I can even connect to the database programmatically using C#. However, I can not tnsping to it. I got error Message 3511 not found when trying to do so. So my question is: in what scenario tnsping is used and how do I make tnsping works? In other word, if my tnsping does not work but I still can connect to the database programmatically using C#, what are the concerns that I should be worrying about? I am new to Oracle.. Thanks!
I have tried to do the following actions without success although they are the most popular answers to similar scenario similar to mine.
1) Set Oracle_Sid to my oracle sid
2) Set Oracle_Home to my oracle home directory
What I did to solve the issue:
1) Uninstall oracle client
2) Reinstall the oracle client with the newest version 11.2.xx.
I believe, re-installing the oracle client of earlier version would just work as well.
However, since I have to re-install the client, I might want to get the newest version.
The cause is probably improper installation at the first time as we have an disk image of pre-installed application to automatically prep a new computer.
Not able tnsping does not seem to impede with other Oracle operations (at least not that I know of).
If someone knows what is the limitation of not able to tnsping but can sqlplus connect, ping... , I would appreciate if you could share.
Either your $Oracle_Home value is not set or your default sid is not set in $ORACLE_SID
Try this :
set ORACLE_SID=mysid
export ORACLE_SID
tnsping mysid
and see what it comes back with.

SQL Server 2005 Express - error after cloning machine

In order to help out one of our departments here I've cloned a machine that was on its last legs and is actually hosting some important data. The plan is to migrate to a VMware VM as soon as possible, but in the meantime I cloned the machine onto another PC for testing among other things.
I've renamed the original machine's hostname,
so the new machine is running ASP.NET and SQL Server 2005 (Express)
and the database-driven website (Intranet-only) is now back up and running but we're getting an error 4200 with ODBC about a login failed.
On checking the event viewer there's the following message:
However it seems that SQL server still sees the local accounts as being under a much older hostname (see below:)
If I try to add the user "CURRENTHOSTNAME\ASPNET" to the database in question it only sees the old hostname. Is this what's causing my problem ? I'm not sure.
I do know that to get IIS working in the first place I had to do "aspnet_reg.exe -ga CURRENTHOSTNAME\ASPNET" and that fixed my first problem but this second one has me stumped.
The third party company that supply the software are being very slow to help on this. I usually do PHP & MySQL so I've little to no knowledge of Microsoft SQL. If anybody can help me you'd really be saving my bacon as this is dragging on a couple of days now.
Thanks in advance!
Renaming a machine with a SQL server instance on it can be tricky. My guess is that you get the old machine name when you run this query:
SELECT ##SERVERNAME
If you do, the old computer name is still stored in the sys.servers table. You might be able to simply follow Microsoft's instructions at renaming, which is just running a couple of stored procedures:
sp_dropserver 'old_host_name'
GO
sp_addserver 'new_host_name', local
GO
By cloning a machine you're opening a big can of worms. My suggestion would be to backup data only and restore it to new computer with fresh installs of everything. But in your case, there are two things that I'd try:
after cloning you must reset SID - check this link
sql recognises users by their id/guid, so delete all users from sql server/database and add them from scratch
Okay it seems to be fixed now - I re-added the NEWHOSTNAME\ASPNET to Security\Logins under "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express" and then it appeared under Databases\MyDatabase\Security\Users" or I was able to add it anyway (can't remember which) - not sure if renaming the server that shows up under SELECT ##SERVERNAME makes a difference, but this error is fixed now anyway
