Long afternoon, but finally got it. Hope this spares you some pain: Installation instructions mainly based on: http://ruby.about.com/od/enterprise/ss/ruby_oracle.htm Install Oracle Instant Client: mkdir C:\oracle cd c:\oracle Get the following files from here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/winsoft.html and unzip them into the c:\oracle\ unzip instantclient-basic-OS-VERSION.zip unzip instantclient-sdk-OS-VERSION.zip unzip instantclient-sqlplus-win32-11.1.0.6.0.zip Append the following value to your system path: C:\oracle\instantclient_11_1 Download the following file: http://rubyforge.org/frs/?group_id=256 Run the following from the command prompt: c:\where you saved file>"ruby ruby-oci8-1.0.0-mswin32.rb" Answer "Yes" Assuming that you have previously installed rails 1.x, copy the oracle adapters manually from: C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activerecord-2.0.2\lib\active_record\connection_adapters\oracle_adapter.rb to: C:\ruby\lib\ruby\gems\1.8\gems\activerecord-1.15.6\lib\active_record\connection_adapters and rename it to oci_adapter.rb Copy the ora.dll & oraociei11.dll from C:\oracle\instantclient_11_1 to c:\ruby\bin Edit your database.yml to read: development: adapter: oci host: <your db host>:<your db port>/<your db sid> username: <uid> password: <pwd> go to http://localhost:3000 expand "About your application''s environment" the Database adapter should read: oci good luck. Next up, trying to get this to work on OSX & Linux. weee, the fun! -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.

More convenient way to install the Oracle adapter :
gem install activerecord-oracle-adapter --source
http://gems.rubyonrails.org
or check it out from svn:
svn co
http://svn.rubyonrails.org/rails/adapters/oracle/lib/active_record/connection_adapters/
since Rails 2.0 will not ship with Oracle adapter.
