Preinstallation Requirements for Oracle Outlook Connector

Installing Oracle Outlook Connector

  1. Exit all Windows applications before installing Outlook Connector.

  2. Double-click the OC_03040_WIN.exe file.  Follow the on-screen installation instructions.


    Note:

    To avoid conflict between POP3 and IMAP4 protocols, Microsoft's Internet Mail or Exchange service providers should not be set up in the same profile as Outlook Connector if both are configured to connect to the same e-mail server.


Silent Installation of Oracle Outlook Connector

When run in silent mode, the Oracle Outlook Connector installer consults a preset configuration file for all the information normally provided by the user through the install dialogs.  Available with Oracle Outlook Connector is a sample file, called ctoc.ini.  Use this file as a template, changing the values of its parameters to suit your installation.  For more details on the parameters available, see Table D-2.  Any parameters for which you do not supply a value and that do not have default values are prompted for at first startup.

To install Oracle Outlook Connector from the command line without requiring any user interaction, run the product self-extracting executable with the -s option, and specify the configuration file to use with the -cfg option.

For example, where both the installer and configuration file exist in the root directory of drive C:, and the installer file name is OC_03040_WIN.exe:

C:\> OC_03040_WIN.exe -s -cfg ctoc.ini

Two optional flags can also be specified:

If you need more information on large-scale deployments of Oracle Outlook Connector, contact Oracle Consulting.
