Oracle Full Client / Database Client package locations


I need to install multiple versions of the Oracle client on an app server for an automation project. The platform I'm looking for in specific is Linux, 64 bit.


Oracle's network of websites are a maze and not helpful at all.


Here is what I've found:


12.1.0.1 : http://ift.tt/KXwp6F


11.2.0.1 : http://ift.tt/1n0wA0s


11.2.0.4 : ??? Who knows, but luckily we have a copy on our repo servers at work.


I need to find the package for 11.2.0.2.


The reason I'm not just using a 12c client for everything (as much as I would like to) is because I can't. This annoying error greets you trying to use expdp a 11.2.0.2 database using the 12c client:



Export: Release 12.1.0.2.0 - Production on Tue Feb 24 14:14:39 2015


Copyright (c) 1982, 2014, Oracle and/or its affiliates. All rights reserved. UDE-00018: Data Pump client is incompatible with database version 11.2.0.2.0



So much for backwards compatibility.


P.S., the source database is a production 11.2.0.2 database that will not be upgraded for at least a year.
