Migration from Oracle 10g to 11g

[Former Member]

Dear All,

we want to upgrade our Oracle db from version 10.2.5.0 to 11 r 2. What we did is:

- full SAP system export

- uninstalled oracle 10g

- installed oracle 11g

- started heterogenous import of SAP on Oracle 11g

then we got an error:

The DB Home folder c:\oracle\S11\102\app has not the correct DB Server version: 102. Select a different DB Home folder or install the correct database server software.

Please advice.

You are in UNIX flavor system? the reason you are doing it this way (other activity other than database upgrade)? Direct upgrade path from oracle 10 to 11 is available. The guide is available at marketplace.

You do not need to do a Heterogeneous System Copy to upgrade your DB.

You need to stop here and go and read the Oracle upgrade guides.
