7  ROracle Setup

After installing Oracle Instant Client following the SOP (“EGIS\Support\_files\Software\Oracle\InstantClient\Oracle Instant Client Install SOP.docx”)

Before closing out of the “Environment Variables” editor, create one new environment variable called “OCI-LIB64” and point it to your instance of instant client (C:\Oracle\instantclient_23_8)

Then, navigate to the ROracle folder under EGIS\Support-files\Software\Oracle\ROracle\_20250718 for the latest version, set that as your working directory, and call install.packages() to install Oracle

setwd("EGIS/Support_files/Software/Oracle/ROracle_20250718/ROracle_1.5-0")
install.packages("ROracle", repos = NULL, type = "source")

Thats all!
