Hello
Ive installed an Instant Client 21 local copy , but i cant find the mkstore and orapki modules
in any of the offered packages... Which package should provide them ?

Ive decompressed all of the below, but none have them
Basic
JDBC
SDK
sqltools


The best i could find is the following info
https://ogobrecht.com/posts/2020-07-29-how-to-use-mkstore-and-orapki-with-oracle-instant-client/

Objective is to create a token to avoid needing to provide password to a module/shell script that will perform some oracle automation

and Connor said...

I had a look at the instantclients I've downloaded, and none of them include mkstore/orapki.

I downloaded the full client ( https://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/oracle19c/193000/NT_193000_client_home.zip ) and it is indeed in there, but that seems excessive just to get orapki.

I'll log a bug
