Steps for installing the Mac client for Scopus
----------------------------------------------
Using the Oracle Products for the Macintosh CS Version 1.0
1. Run the Mac Installer
Install all Oracle and Scopus pieces in a folder called "Oracle". If
such a folder doesn't already exist, create one.
2. Select SQL*Net v2.0.15.0.0c from Available Products and click Install.
3. Select SQL*Net TCP/IP Client 1.5.6.1.8A from Available Products and click
Install.
4. Select SQL*Plus 3.1.1.9.2A from Available Products and click Install.
5. Select TCP?IP Protocol Adaptor 2.0.15.0.1 and click Install.
6. Eject the CD - you are done installing all the Oracle pieces.
7. Put the Scopus Foundation Client Release 3.6.1 for Mac Oracle Version
diskette in the drive.
8. Drag the Scopus folder into the Oracle folder on your hard drive.
9. In the Oracle Applications folder, double click on "Set Oracle Home".
Make sure that the Oracle folder is the open one in the dialog box, and that
the "Current Folder Path" indicates the Oracle folder. Click on "Set Home".
10. In the Oracle folder, open the config.ora file and add the following line:
LOCAL=[harddrive name]:oracle:drivers
11. Either edit or replace the tnsnames file in the Oracle:Network:Admin folder
to look something like the following. This is the ASD tnsnames file off
of TechInfo - the key stuff being the helpus section for our purposes\.
----------------------------
# Sample tnanames.ora file.
# This is a sample file for the client side.
# This file should be changed appropriately for any given network/machine.
# It is only inteded to be a prototype model to aid porters.

----------------------------
12. Increase memory allocated to Scopus to 6000K. (Select the Scopus app, and
choose Get Info from the file menu.)
13. Increase memory allocated to SQL*Plus to 2800K.
(Is it unlucky that this takes 13 steps?)
By the way - these instructions have gotten it to work on a PowerMac, but
not on 68040 Duos.
