Client unable to connect to Oracle 10g on linux

I have installed Oracle 10g on an Intel box running RedHat AS 3.0. The database installation was succesful but I am unable to connect to it from the client on my laptop running Oracle 10g client and Winfdows XP Pro. The server ip is 192.168.1.10 and I can ping it from the client:

ODBC Error while Siebel Server try to connect to Oracle 10G

We have managed to get through with the configuration of siebel server on HP Unix. However before we get to the Database configuration, we are encountering errors with ODBC connection to oracle 10g database. We are able to connect to oracle using sql plus but odbc connection is failing. We verified for patches, missing files, directory access rights - but no clue as of now.
Our error says:
Logging into "ENTSIA_DEV_DAN" as "sadmin"....
/user/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libclntsh.so'.
ODBC error IM0003 in SQLConnect:

Unable to login using specified odbc parameters
This has become a show stopped for us and we are strugging with this for the past three days without much direction.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I guess your DataDirect Driver which gets registered during Database Configuration has some problems.
Can you check whether the DSN is using the proper Driver?
Also, the username through which you are logging in to start Siebel Services must have proper rights.
Many times on Windows platform i have noticied this error in ODBC due to improper user rights. If the rights are not proper, the DataDirect Driver fails to get loaded & throws similar error.

Can't Create the ODBC connection for Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am working with Oracle 10g Database Release 2 in windows XP professional. I am trying to create an ODBC connection for oracle but become failure because its generating the following errors:
system error code 998
could not locate the setup or translator library
Please help me how can I solve this problem and create the ODBC connection for oracle 10g database.
Best Regards,

could not locate the setup or translator libraryThe symptom described is typical of an incorrect system env PATH setting (used by the data source admin tool), compared to that of the Oracle Home (specifically, path $OH/bin). The odbc driver config routine will search directories listed in PATH variable for necessary libraries (Client dll's). If some library fails to load (from e.g. oraoci*.dll or oraclient10.dll) it will probably error out, as in your case.
Are you creating the odbc dsn on the databse server host or on some other machine? I.e. are you using the db host as a client or not?

Problem to connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 at Vista sp2

Introduction
Hi guys, good day... NEED RESCUE!! SOS!! Hmm.. i have trouble been 1 weeks trying connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 on window vista sp2. Actaully im very new at Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 but i got a project is going to build up system database and i figure out Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 can use free so i just chows these appication to be my project. I been search around internet and there is several things i was found about the connection but i has try and tried still it wont work out.
Things i found and learned
Oracle
1. I have download Oracle 10g XE and installed in my windows vista sp2.
2. I notice the Oracle Developer Tools is needed for VB2010 (To add reference 'Oracle.DataAccess'). So i was downloaded ODT11beta and installed
3. I also edit TNSNAMES to following below:
OraDb =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
4. My sqlnet like following below:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
5.I have try tnsping OraDB and its works.
6. I monitoring task manager and OracleServicesXE is running.
7. ora_dba is added in Group.
Problem in SQLPLUS
When i try connect SQLPLUS in cmd i get ERROR: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
i . In cmd i type sqlplus and enter then i been ask for username and password.
ii. After i insert my username and password and enter then i get the error of ORA-12560.
Visual Basic 2010
1. First i created my project, drawing label and button for test connection.
2. Then, i add reference Oracle.DataAccess into my project.
3. I type following script into my vb form:
Imports System.Data
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Types
Public Class Logon
Private Sub cmdLogon_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdLogon.Click
Dim oradb As String = "Data Source = OraDb; User Id = system; Password = shin;"
Dim conn As New OracleConnection(oradb)
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New OracleCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandText = "select SName from Staff where SName = shin"
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
Dim dr As OracleDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
dr.Read()
lblOra.Text = dr.Item("SName")
conn.Dispose()
End Sub
End Class
Problem in VB2010
When i run my project and press the button i get error message ORA-12514: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at conn.Open()
Extra Question*
1. Im notice in my netbook xp home sp2, before i install ODT11beta my sqlplus look fine thought cmd but after i installed ODT11beta its same problem with my Vista sp2 now. Get error ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error :( I tried uninstall ODT11beta again and restart its work fine again. Which i really dun understand. Izzit the version ODT11 is not suitable for 10g xe? And i dunno this problem is related with my connection between oracle 10g xe and vb2010 or not. So confuse@@
2. I wish to know more about connect between Oracle and VB, is there still a things i miss?(I mean steps or configuration that should i done)
3. Or i just lower my VB version could make more easy? If yes, what version VB should i use that could work out with oracle 10g xe?
4. Sorry for too bad my english but i really wish somebody could help me. Please try to understand my written or you could ask me mean if dont understand. Im stuck!! Stuck feel not really that good.....

Huhu..
Yo, henry
I thought the OraDb is just a name for entry but im not sure it is a service. I was refer http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/cook-vs08.html at topic Connection Strings and Objects.
Here is my lsnrctl service

Izzit ok? I notice there is no listed OraDb. but tnsping OraDb seem fine.
Actually there is somethings as a newbie i wondering long time alreadly ><
1. The origin of tnsname.ora is no OraDb or ORCL but i just simple add it by open tnsname.ora with notepad. Im just not sure it is function or not.
Also please check at my TNSNAME.ORA:
XE =

Oracle 9i R2 Client on a PC having Oracle 10g Database

Can I install and use Oracle 9i R2 Client on a PC having Oracle 10g Database on Windows XP Professional?
The reason for that; is because I can't do Export and Import operations from the mentioned PC (which having Oracle 10g) to other two remote databases where they have Oracle 9i R2 database.

OK, I have Windows 2000 Server and when I go to SQL*Plus and connect to my database, it's showing for me this:
Connected to:
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
With the Partitioning, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options
JServer Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production
Also when I launch the OEM and goto Help-->About, it's showing the same version as above.
But when I look to other things, it's like this:
Oracle Home Directory: "C:\oracle\ora91"
System Services "services.msc": "OracleOraHome91Agent", "OracleOraHome91TNSListener", and "OracleServiceREPORTS" (REPORTS is my Oracle database name).
So how could I know what is my actual Oracle version?

Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database (afscpgcs) after clone

Hi,
I have just moved (clone using rapidclone) two of our 11.5.10.2 install from a solaris SPARC 8 to 10 . After the clone, while discoverer 10g works perfectly well in one environment, it is giving the error below in the another environment.
- Failed to connect to database - Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database (afscpgcs)
Notes:
1. For the 2 environments, nothing as changed apart from the hostnames.
2. The password has not changed on both - from source to targets.
3. This happens when launching discoverer 10g from Apps.... discoverer works well on it own if not launched from apps.
I raised a SR with oracle and the 2 things they said have not worked. they said
1. change signon password case parameter - but I cannot find that in the list of system parameters on our system.
2. The other note says apply patch 6430269 and I can confirm this patch has been on the system for sometime.
Please advise on this if you have come accross this before and you can help here.
Thanks

Thanks for your concern. I have used the notes you listed but no luck. One thing I have to point out here is that I have always cloned from solaris 8 to 8 for years without this problem. Now I am cloning from solaris 8 to 10 and the problems is on just one environment. The other is working well. The problem seems to be related to the apps password but the password has not changed at all. Also, I have tried to change the password to something else and ran autoconfig but no luck. Please help

Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database invalid username/password

Hi,
Ou Requirement is we want to connect to Oracle Applications using discoverer plus and discoverer viewer.
Application Server used : 10.1.2.0.2
Oracle Applications : R12 RUP4
We have installed application server 10g with OID and when we try to connect to oracle applications we are getting
A connection error has occurred.
- Failed to connect to database - Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database: invalid username/password.
Regards
Ketan

Hi,
I think better to check with your sysadmin or DBA on this, I had the same isuse before but Apps 11i with Discoverer, I talked to ERP sysadmin and worked fine.
Since applications userid cannot talk with Discoverer schema (eul10_us) and it should directly talk with APPS user and then APPS user can talk with Discoverer user.
To the best of my knowledge I provided.

I could not connect to Oracle 10g Repository with WEBDAV protocol. I thought that Oracle should provide a client library to help Java application to connect to Repo but I could not find it out.
Could you please show me how to connect to Repo with WEBDAV protocol?
It's better if giving me some examples.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Did you succeed??
I am also searching for an example.
Regards,
Romano

Error while connecting to oracle 10g data base

Following is the code we used to connect to oracle 10g data base using symbian 7.1 series 80 SDK
int CTest_S80AppUi::SetupODBC(void)
RETCODE rc;
char *DataSource = OD_DATA_SOURCE;
char UserId = "system", Password = "manager";
rc=SQLAllocEnv(&Henv);
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLAllocEnv", FALSE) < 0) return(-1);
rc=SQLAllocConnect(Henv, &Hdbc);
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLAllocConnect", FALSE) < 0)
     //return(-1);
rc = SQLConnect(Hdbc, (unsigned char *)DataSource, SQL_NTS,
          (unsigned char *)UserId, SQL_NTS,
          (unsigned char *)Password, SQL_NTS);
bConnected = TRUE;
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLConnect", FALSE) < 0) return(-1);
SQLAllocStmt(Hdbc, &Hstmt);
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLAllocStmt", FALSE) < 0) return(-1);
return (1);
} /* SetupODBC */
iam getting the return code for SQLConnect as -1.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.
//syntax means comments.
chk the following code.
int SetupODBC(void)
char *DataSource = "polite";
char UserId = "system", Password = "manager";
if ( SQLAllocEnv(&Henv) < 0 )
return -1;
if ( SQLAllocConnect(Henv, &Hdbc) < 0 )
return -1;
if ( SQLConnect(Hdbc, (unsigned char *)DataSource, SQL_NTS,
(unsigned char *)UserId, SQL_NTS,
(unsigned char *)Password, SQL_NTS) < 0 )
return -1;
if (SQLAllocStmt(Hdbc, &Hstmt) < 0 )
return -1;
return (0);
As said earlier there is a problem in SQLConnect. It is returning -1.
But the code should return 0 if successfully connected.
The info regarding the arguments used in the above methods:
HENV Henv; /* Handle to ODBC Environment object */
HDBC Hdbc; /* Handle to ODBC Connection object */
HSTMT Hstmt; /* Handle to ODBC Statement object */

Unable to connect to oracle driver

I am unable to connect to oracle driver. My code is as follows --
try {
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver").newInstance();
} catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
System.out.println("Can't find class oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
System.exit(1);
} catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
When I run the code, I am getting the 'ClassNotFoundException'. I have JVM 1.4 and have included classes12.zip and ojdbc.jar in the class path.
What am I missing?

or better yet, upgrade to a less ancient driver jar.
The driver classname you supplied is correct for Oracle 9i and later, but the driver jar you use is for Oracle 8. It's also for Java 1.2 (hence the "classes12" name), and seriously lacking in features and performance compared to more modern versions.
Of course if you're stuck with a 10 year old database version you have little recourse but to use it, but no reputable company would use something that old any longer, especially since it's been out of support for ages.

Best client tool to connect to Oracle DB

I wanted to know which should be the best client tool to connect to Oracle database. TOAD is a good option but there is also reference of SQL developer these days.
I hope, my question is clear about which should be a good client tool to connect to Oracle DB.
Please revert with the reply to my query.

RegardsIt depends on what criteria YOU use to define "best".
If your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like nails.
Depending on the task, I use the following, preference in the order listed
- sqlplus
- SQLDeveloper
- dbcontrol
- SQLNavigator
