Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracl

I have created a linked server in a SQL Server 2005 connecting to either an Oracle Database and a SQL Server 6.5 database and getting the following error for both links when trying to query using provider OraOLEDB.Oracle, please help.
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "finprod3" returned message "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "finprod3".

What version of Oracle client software are you using? 32 bit or 64 bit? Is the OS 32 bit or 64 bit?
12154 generally means the client can't figure out what TNSNames.ora entry you're referring to, which is the part you passed as "data source" in the oledb connection. Did you configure the client? Does SQLPlus connect without issue?
There's also a known issue where running 32 bit client software on a 64 bit OS can result in that error in some versions, due to parenthesis in the path of the executable - 32 bit apps go in Program Files (x86) on a 64 bit OS. Applying the latest patch level to the client software will resolve that issue.

I have an application which has linked servers to mdb databases on Sql Server. Development machines which have access to full version of Office can intialise the data source as expected, however, machines using the Office 2010 runtime throw the above exception.
Have checked the HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Microsoft.ACE.OleDb.12.0\CLSID which has value {3BE7860-0366-4F5C-9434-25CF162E475E} as expected, however that CLSID cannot be found in HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID on the machines using the runtime.
How can I ensure PCs using the 2010 runtime can access the linked server(s).

Cannot get data of the row from OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server

I have created a stored procedure in SQL Server for a report that uses parameters. In the report I am linking an Oracle table. I use a subquery like this to query the Oracle table: (select * from openquery(oracle_linked_server, 'select
partno, description from oracletable')). If I run the subquery it works fine every time. The linked server uses an oracle account which has access to the oracle table. When I first created the Stored Procedure it worked fine for me. When
I test the report, it worked fine. Then I asked another user to test it and it broke with the below error message.
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "XXXX_ORACLE" returned message "ORA-01403: no data found".
Msg 7346, Level 16, State 2, Procedure usp_report_XXXXXX, Line 15
Cannot get the data of the row from the OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "XXXX_ORACLE".
Now when I try the report or the stored procedure, I get the same error. I tested the oracle subquery in the stored procedure and it still works. The report uses a service account to execute the stored procedure.
I am using SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition 64 bit (11.0.5058) Management Studio to develop the stored procedure. The SQL Server I am accessing and running the stored procedure is SQL Server 2008R2 Developer Edition 64bit (10.50.2550). The user
that tested the report for me has SQL Server 2008R2 but that shouldn't matter since he is running the report in Internet Explorer.
What is changing that it works for a while and then stops?

I found the answer. It was in the query. I put the TRIM statement on the part# field in the Oracle subquery and took the LTRIM function out of the ON clause that joined my SQL Server table with the Oracle linked server table. Now everything
works. The query looks like this:
SQL_Server_Table sst
LEFT OUTER JOIN
(SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(OracleLinkedServer, 'SELECT TRIM(partNo) AS partNo, partDesc FROM OracleTable')) ols
ON sst.partNo = ols.partNo
Thanks for pointing me in the right direction.

BusinessObjects Explorer The creation of the data source object tree failed

Hi,
I'm trying to create a new information space in BusinessObjects Explorer 4.0. When I select the Universe I want to use and click "New" Information Space I get the following error.
Failed to retrieve the data source details.
The creation of the data source object tree failed.
I'm just using a local installation, BI Platform 4.0, Client Tools, and Explorer are all installed on my Windows 7 machine. It's intended to be a demo environment.
Any guidance would be appreciated!
Jeff

Hi Jeff,
first of all BI4 Enterprise is not supported on Windows 7 and it may not work properly for various reasons.
But you can give this a try:
Update the command line parametres of each of the Explorer Services to use a different value for the connection server libraries
The changes are made to the command line of each of the Explorer services
- Master
- Exploration
- Indexing
- Search
Remove the following from the command line parameters of the existing Explorer services
-connectivity_dir "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer"
Example of the original Explorer Master server command line parameters:
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dosgi.configuration.area=configuration.BI40.ExplorerMasterServer1 -server -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dosgi.clean=true -Xmx1g -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20081125.jar -loggingPath "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0/logging/" -connectivity_dir "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer" -serverkind explorerMaster
And update the server command line parameters with the following:
"-Dbusinessobjects.connectivity.directory=C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer"
Example of an updated Explorer Master server command line parameters:
-Djava.awt.headless=true -Dosgi.configuration.area=configuration.BI40.ExplorerMasterServer -server -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Dosgi.clean=true -Xmx1g -jar plugins/org.eclipse.equinox.launcher_1.0.101.R34x_v20081125.jar -loggingPath "C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0/logging/" -Dbusinessobjects.connectivity.directory="C:/Program Files (x86)/SAP BusinessObjects/SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 4.0//dataAccess/connectionServer" -serverkind explorerMaster

this perticular part is raising that error, and i had tried every configuartion on my local machine related to MS DTC.
When i remove my transaction code, its work just fine no exception raise, but when i use then i.e. BEGIN TRAN, COMMITE TRAN, AND ROLLBACK TRAN. its giving me error, other wise its fine.
Please Help or disscus or suggest why my transaction base code is not woking????
thanks in advance.

Sorry again, I am new on any kind of forum, so i am learning now, following is the error massage generated by SQL Server. and its not
an architecture problem, i had just included my complete architecture to be more informative while asking for the solution or suggestion. My real problem is T-SQL, i think and its related to Distributed queries raise in SQL Server in Oracle Link Server.
OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle"
for linked server "ORCL" returned message "New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. ".
Msg 50000, Level 16, State 2, Procedure PROC_MIGRATE_MST_FRM_ORA_SQLSERVER,
Line 43
The operation could not be performed because OLE
DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORCL" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.

The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server ...

Our setup is that we have two databases; a SQL Server 2008 database and an Oracle database (11g). I've got the oracle MTS stuff installed and the Oracle MTS Recovery Service is running. I have DTC configured to allow distributed transactions. All access to the Oracle tables takes place via views in the SQL Server database that go against Oracle tables in the linked server.
(With regard to DTC config: Checked-> Network DTC Access, Allow Remote Clients, Allow Inbound, Allow Outbound, Mutual Authentication (tried all 3 options), Enable XA Transactions and Enable SNA LU 6.2 Transactions. DTC logs in as NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService)
Our app is an ASP.NET MVC 4.0 app that calls into a number of WCF services to perform database work. Currently the web app and the WCF service share the same app pool (not sure if it's relevant, but just in case...)
Some of our services are transactional, others are not.
Each WCF service that is transactional has the following attribute on its interface:
[ServiceContract(SessionMode=SessionMode.Required)]
and the following attribute on the method signatures in the interface:
[TransactionFlow(TransactionFlowOption.Allowed)]
and the following attribute on every method implementations:
[OperationBehavior(TransactionScopeRequired = true, TransactionAutoComplete = true)]
In my data access layer, all the transactional methods are set up as follows:
using (IDbConnection conn = DbTools.GetConnection(_configStr, _connStr))
using (IDbCommand cmd = DbTools.GetCommand(conn, "SET XACT_ABORT ON"))
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
using (IDbCommand cmd = DbTools.GetCommand(conn, sql))
... Perform actual database work ...
Services that are transactional call transactional DAL code. The idea was to keep the stuff that needs to be transactional (a few cases) separate from the stuff that doesn't need to be transactional (~95% of the cases).
There ought not be cases where transactional and non-transactional WCF methods are called from within a transaction (though I haven't verified this and this may be the cause of my problems. I'm not sure, which is part of why I'm asking here.)
As I mentioned before, in most cases, this all works fine.
Periodically, and I cannot identify what initiates it, I start getting errors. And once they start, pretty much everything starts failing for a while. Eventually things start working again. Not sure why... This is all in a test environment with a single user.
Sometimes the error is:
Unable to start a nested transaction for OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLSERVERNAME". A nested transaction was required because the XACT_ABORT option was set to OFF.
This message, I'm guessing is happening when I have non-transactional stuff within transactions, as I'm not setting XACT_ABORT in the non-transactional code (that's totally doable, if that will fix my issue).
Most often, however, the error is this:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLSERVERNAME" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
Now, originally we only had transactions on SQL Server tables and that all worked fine. It wasn't until we added transaction support for some of the Oracle tables that things started failing. I know the Oracle transactions work. And as I said, most of the time, everything is just hunky dorey and then sometimes it starts failing and keeps failing for a while until it decides to stop failing and then it all works again.
I noticed that our transactions didn't seem to have a DistributedIdentifier set, so I added the EnsureDistributed() method from this blog post: http://www.make-awesome.com/2010/04/forcibly-creating-a-distributed-net-transaction/
Instead of a hardcoded Guid (which seemed to cause a lot of problems), I have it generating a new Guid for each transaction and that seems to work, but it has not fixed my problem. I'm wondering if the lack of a DistribuedIdentifier is indicative of some other underlying problem. I've never dealt with an environment quite like this before, so I'm not sure what is "normal".
I've also noticed that the DistributedIdentifier doesn't get passed to WCF. From the client, I have a DistributedIdentifier and a LocalIdentifier in Transaction.Current.TransactionInformation. In the WCF server, however there is only a LocalIdentifier set and it is a different Guid from the client side (which makes sense, but I would have expected the DistributedIdentifier to go across).
So I changed the wait the code above works and instead, on the WCF side, I call a method that calls Transaction.Current.EnlistDurable() with the DummyEnlistmentNotification class from the link above (though with a unique Guid for each transaction instead of the hardcoded guid in the link). I now havea DistributedIdentifier on the server-side, but it still doesn't fix the problem.
It appears that when I'm in the midst of transactions failing, even after I shut down IIS, I'm unable to get the DTC service to shutdown and restart. If I go into Component Services and change the security settings, for example, and hit Apply or OK, after a bit of a wait I get a dialgo that says, "Failed ot restart the MS DTC serivce. Please examine the eventlog for further details."
In the eventlog I get a series of events:
1 (from MSDTC): "The MS DTC service is stopping"
2 (From MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS): "The connection has been lost with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC). Recovery of any in-doubt distributed transactions
involving Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) will begin once the connection is re-established. This is an informational
message only. No user action is required."
-- Folowed by these 3 identical messages
3 (from MSDTC Client 2): 'MSDTC encountered an error (HR=0x80000171) while attempting to establish a secure connection with system GCOVA38.'
4 (from MSDTC Client 2): 'MSDTC encountered an error (HR=0x80000171) while attempting to establish a secure connection with system GCOVA38.'
5 (from MSDTC Client 2): 'MSDTC encountered an error (HR=0x80000171) while attempting to establish a secure connection with system GCOVA38.'
6 (From MSDTC 2): MSDTC started with the following settings: Security Configuration (OFF = 0 and ON = 1):
Allow Remote Administrator = 0,
Network Clients = 1,
Trasaction Manager Communication:
Allow Inbound Transactions = 1,
Allow Outbound Transactions = 1,
Transaction Internet Protocol (TIP) = 0,
Enable XA Transactions = 1,
Enable SNA LU 6.2 Transactions = 1,
MSDTC Communications Security = Mutual Authentication Required, Account = NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService,
Firewall Exclusion Detected = 0
Transaction Bridge Installed = 0
Filtering Duplicate Events = 1
This makes me wonder if there's something maybe holding a transaction open somewhere?

The MS OLEDB for Oracle was built some time ago and requires an older SQL*Net version:
OLE/DB provider returned message: Oracle client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation.
=> see Oracle Version V7.3.3 ... but you have installed V10; so the OLEDB driver from MS tries to locate old SQL*Net client library files which are not available in your installation anymore.
So best would be to use the Oracle OLEDB driver coming with the SQL*Net client you have installed.
As you mentioned this causes a different error:

This error is related to the OLEDB process running by default in "out-of-process" mode which doesn't work with Oracle OLEDB driver. By setting a key in the registry under SQL Server this can be changed to run in-process (the default) the provider will work:
     HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSSQLServer\Providers\ORAOLEDB.ORACLE
Change the value of the key "AllowInProcess" under the "OraOLEDB.Oracle" folder
to a hexadeciaml value of 1.
If the key does not exist create it as a new DWORD value.

Crystal report for visual studio 2010 data source object is not valid error

Hello,
I receive an "data source object is not valid" error when I want to print one CR document after setting an ADODB.Recordset on SetDataSource method of my report.
On my developer station, this operation works without problem but on client station, I get this error.
The redistributable package for client is installed on client side (CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi).
Can someone help me?
Thank you.

Thank's for your answers
Dim rsPkLst As ADODB.Recordset = Nothing
Dim report As New crPickingList
' Fill ADODB.Recordset with SQL Statment
If rsPkLst.RecordCount > 0 Then
report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst) ' Error : The data source object is invalid
EndIf
This error appears during "report.SetDataSource(rsPkLst)" instruction.
ADODB drivers are already installed and my ADODB.Recordset is filled with good records.
This project is an updated project from Visual Studio 2003 to Visual studio 2010 and the old version was running fine.
Developer and client station runs under Windows XP SP3.
On developer side I install CRforVS_13_0_1 (BuildVersion=13.0.1.220.Cortez_CR4VS).
On client side I install CRRuntime_32bit_13_0_1.msi.
Both stations use Microsoft .Net Framework 4.
Move to ADO.NET is a solution but, for the moment, I do not have the time to change all applications from my company.
(I get this error from all application updated from VS 2003 to VS 2010 developed since 2005)

The data source "....." referenced in the form template is not valid or cannot be found

Greetings,
I have an InfoPath 2013 form that uses an external data connection. The data connection became corrupt (somehow, no one knows who changed what). A user went in to InfoPath designer and created a new data connection and changed all references
to use that new data connection. Now the form cannot be published at all with the error
"The data source "GetUserProfileByName" referenced in the form template is not valid or cannot be found"
The new data source they created is GetUserProfileByName2 and changed all references.
Of course, since it is broke, they asked me to see if I can find the issue. I went through the form looking to see if they missed any references to the old data connection and can't find anything.
Where is InfoPath storing the old data connection information and where can I remote it? I looked in the manifest and don't see it there either.
Any thoughts?
Thank you!

Hi Bob,
There are many XML schema files for the data connection, I recommend to check if the references to the XML files have been changed to the new schema files in the manifest file.
For example, if we create a data connection called GetUserProfileByName, then there will be one XML file and three XML schema files for the data connection.
Please make sure that all the references are updated in the manifest file.
Thanks,
Victoria

Changing the Data source in Business Objects XI

Hi,
Is it possible to change the data source(not universe) in runtime to generate business objects reports. I am using BOXI 3.1.
Below is the code I am using to change the universe in runtime. I would like to change this so that i can change the data source instead of changing the universe. My intention is to generate report from multipple database using same universe. Right now I am using multipple universes connected to multiple datasources to achieve this. I am using Report Engine SDK(Java).
           if("Webi".equals(mDocKind))
               // Added for multiple database support
               DataProviders dataProvs = documentInstance.getDataProviders();
            try{
                //To support multiple queries in BO reports
             for(int count=0;count<dataProvs.getCount(); count++){
               DataProvider dp=dataProvs.getItem(count);
               DataSource ds= dp.getDataSource();
               infoUniverseObjects = getUniverseObject(infoStore,NewUniverseName);
               infoUniverseObject = (IInfoObject)infoUniverseObjects.get(0);
               String newDsCuid = infoUniverseObject.getCUID();

Hi Shameer,
I think this is only possible with the Universe Designer SDK (which is only available in COM).
Please kindly refer to the API reference for the Universe Designer SDK for more details:
http://help.sap.com/businessobject/product_guides/boexir31/en/bodessdk.chm
Also, please note that changing the universe connection when viewing a document on-demand is not recommended because this could lead to possible issues.
For example:
Two users trying to view documents that uses the same universe at approximately the same time.
But user A wants to use connection X and user B wants to use connection Y.
This could lead to an error while openning the document or while refreshing/retrieving the the data.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Dan

Exception Message: The form cannot connect to the data source. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'

When opening a form in SharePoint 12013 that was created from Infopath 2013, I get the following error.
You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.
An entry has been added to the Windows event log of the server.
Log ID:5566
When I go to the log files on the SharePoint server. I see the following error.
Exception Message: The form cannot connect to the data source. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'
I am guessing this has something to do with the UDCX connection and the database.
Can anyone help me get this fixed?

Hi Jim,
Please check the following kb article when it occurs 5566errro with the UDCX conection file, try the method of using the Secure Store Service to store alternate credentials for the data connection method, or the method of stating the credentials
in the UDC file explicitly.
Also check if it could help with setting sql server as "SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode".
