The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed

The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed


This Sunday when I was trying to install Oracle 11g Database I was facing following problem while installing the database.

[INS-32025] The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed in the given Oracle home
INS-32025 The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed
INS-32025 The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed

This error occurs because I have already installed the Oracle 11g Database and later I have remove the Oracle 11g Database and restored my registry. But when I again try to install the database, installer found any traces of previous installation somehow and show the error.

Solution:

I have just change the dbhome_1 to dbhome_2 and problem solved. :)

Reason:

Installer found the entry of dbhome_1 from anywhere in my system and when again I tried to installed the same home installer showed the error. So I just change the home name.

Suppose:

If you install this and later you uninstall the db then next time when you will try to install the Oracle 11g Database you will have to use the "dbhome_3". Hope you got the point. :)

  4. I just remove the ORACLE folder in the register, and then I proceed to instal again, and that's it! It works for me.
