Oracle Instant Client 12.2 installation (not seeing SQL*Loader)

I am currently running the setup file. I went through it and chose to do a custom installation. By doing so, I was given a list of utilities to choose from. Unfortunately, I do not see Sql*Loader anywhere in sight.

Here is a blog from Oracle stating that is should be included in the installation: https://blogs.oracle.com/opal/oracle-instant-client-122-now-has-sqlloader-and-data-pump

Where is it? Any information would be appreciated.

To anyone who comes across this in the future wondering where you can find SQL Loader for other versions of the client (in my case, version 19, the latest):

You have to scroll down and download SQL Loader separately as part of the optional Tools Package (second row):

https://www.oracle.com/database/technologies/instant-client/winx64-64-downloads.html

enter image description here

Unzip the download and move the folder to, say, the folder where you installed Oracle Instant Client. Then, you can simply add it to your PATH variable so that the sqlldr command is accessible from the command-line.

You must select Oracle Database Utilities in order to get SQL*Loader

Note, due to Bug 17548895 in the Oracle Universal Installer you also have to select Oracle Net

In 12c, instant client contains SQL*Loader.

Download it (for Windows 64-bit, it is called "instantclient-tools-windows.x64-12.2.0.1.0.zip")

  • all versions are here
