Re: listener on windows using wrong directory structure

Sorry for the late reply, just saw this thread now..

On Windows, the OUI has the irritating habit to put the newly installed home 
first in the %PATH% variable, which in my experience can really mess things up. 
For instance, the right frontend may load the wrong dll from another home and 
hence end up reading the wrong registry path for configuration files. I always 
make a point of removing all Oracle homes from the path after the installation 
completes - never broke anything yet and the executable must read the registry 
to find its dlls, etc.

Perhaps this helps..

Cheers,
Tony
