Connect to Oracle database from Perl on Solaris x86

Hi,
How can I connect to Oracle database using Perl scripts on Solaris x86. It seems that DBD-Oracle Perl module requires Oracle client installed to work. Is there any Oracle client available for Solaris x86? Any one got a workaround? Thanks.
Angus Lee

Yes, you absolutely must have some portions of the rdbms installed before you can proceed. If your Solaris x86 machine is only a client, then you can get away with installing just ?/rdbms/mesg and ?/rdbms/lib.
I have Oracle 7.3.4, 8.0.5, 8.0.6, and 8.1.6 for Intel Solaris 2.6. I don't know if they'll run on Solaris 8 or 9 but I'm trying to upgrade at this very moment. As long as you conform to Oracle developer license, then you may download them from my machine.
I believe the reason Oracle dropped their Intel Solaris port is probably because Sun went through a period where they themselves dropped their Intel port. They've picked back up and if enough Oracle on Intel Solaris customers scream, then Oracle might pick it back up again too.
Send me an email if you're interested in the downloads.

How to connect to Oracle database from webdynprojava application

Hi
How to connect to Oracle database from webdynprojava application. where can we provide the code to connect to database.?
Thank You.

Hi,
You need to create Java Bean model. The bean is a typical java bean with default constructor, getter and setter. You can have additional methods for query etc. The attributes in the class will be your model node and attributes.
However you need to configure the connection and create JNDI using visual administrator before writing the code.
You can also consider writing Session EJB with oracle and using them in WD.

How to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition

I have installed visual basic 2010 express edition on windows xp. But visual basic 2010 express edition supports Microsoft sql server database file,Microsoft sql server compact 3.5, Microsoft access database file. I want to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition. So what drivers are required and how to do connectivity?

Hello,
I wasn't clear on what you were using to make the connection. I had a look in Visual Studio 2010 (don't have express to test sorry).
I think you mean the Data Sources available under the menu Data-> Datasources. this seems to match the description you give when I
look at the list of datasource options.
In here you can make ODBC connections via the Microsoft .net Data Provider .
If you select ODBC as a datasource you can see listed the DSN's you created - for example I see 2 which use the Oracle ODBC driver.
This assumes you installed an Oracle Client + the oracle version of the ODBC driver (comes with the oracle client).
Once you created a server connection then you should see it in the server explorer.
You can also download the Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio which is an add on for VS.
** I suspect this is only for VS 2010 and I didn't see that Express was supported.

Let me know if that helps.

Connect to Oracle database from SQL Sever

Can you help on an issue of connection from SQL Server to Oracle database:
In SQL Server, I create a "linked server" to connect to Oracle database on a different machine. But it will take a unreasonable time (about 30 seconds) to call a Oracle query from SQL Server.

No there are no entries required in the TNSNAMES.ORA
When you are using ODBC for connection, Oracle does not look fo rany enteries in TNSNAMES.ORA file.
Now I am able to connect to both SQL Plus and Forms 6i. But while connecting to SQL Plus its giving an error
Error accessing PRODUCT_USER_PROFILE
Warning: Product user profile information not loaded!
You may need to run PUPBLD.SQL as SYSTEM
Server not available or version too low for this feature
Connected to:
Oracle Open Client Adapter for ODBC 6.0.5.35.0
Microsoft SQL Server 08.00.0534
Also while disconnecting the Windows Program Error comes, and the application closes abruptly.

Not connecting to Oracle Database from Oracle BIEE 10g on Windows 7 machine

Hi friends,
I succesfully installed OBIEE 10g on my Windows 7 (Ultimate) machine using the assistance from one of your threads.
Now I am not able to connect to Oracle 11g database. When I tried to configure through START->Control Panel --> Administrative Tools --> DATA SOURCES (ODBC) ---> ....I am seeing Oracle 11g in System DSN but I am unable to see OBIEE driver in system DSN. After setting manually, I am now seeing OBIEE driver in user DSN. So is all other 32 bitapplications like MS Acess, Excel, etc., are all in user dsn.
When I open OBIEE Administration tool, I can only see ONLY Analytics Web and nothing else. How do I connect to Oracle database. Please assist me.
Thanks in advance.

Cannot connect to Oracle database from SQL Server

Hi
We have set up a SQL Server linked server and tried to use this SQL Server linked server to connect to Oracle database. We are using SQL Server 2008 and Oracle client 11g 11.02.00.01. However, we got this error message:
Msg 7347, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' for linked server 'OurLinkedServer' returned data that does not match expected data length for column '[OraOLEDB.Oracle].Ourfieldname'. The (maximum) expected data length is 6, while the returned data length is 2.
We are able to connect some of the tables ok but some of the tables are not connected and got the above error message.
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Thanks a lot
Tom

Hi
Here is more information. We just found out that the Oracle database team changed the character set to something else and then they changed it back to UTF8.
Currently, it is using UTF8 character set on the Oracle side. Will this causing us this error message on our sql server linked server?
The error message said "The (maximum) expected data length is 6, while the returned data length is 2."
This refers to a field/column with char(1)
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated
Thank you
Tom

Problem in connecting Non Oracle Database from Oracle

Hi:
I want to access "MS ACCESS" from Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1) using Windows XP.
I tried my best, applied all proper instructions I found from books and from Internet, but getting an error.
Here is what I did:
My Oracle database is called "ORCL" and "MS ACCESS" is called "access_1".
There is only one table "Employees" in "access_1".
1. Accessed ODBC from Start | Control Panel | Administrative Tools.
2. Clicked on Users DSN | "access_1" | Add.
3. Clicked on "Drive do Microsoft Access (*.MDB)" .
4. Hit Finish.
5. Entered at DATA SOURCE NAME "ODBC1" and at DESCRIPTION "Connect Oracle to MS Access". Also I clicked on SELECT and chose the "Access_1.mdb" which is located at "C:\Documents and Settings\Muhammad\My Documents" folder. Clicked OK. and clicked on OK again.
6. Now I went to Oracle side and configured listener as follows: (Only portion is shown here)
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =

(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = RIYAZDESKTOP)(PORT = 1521))
7. Configuring the hs file located at C:\oracle\Product\Orcl\hs|admin as follows:
# HS init parameters
# HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = <odbc data_source_name>
# HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = <trace_level>
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = odbc1
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF
# Environment variables required for the non-Oracle system
#set <envvar>=<value>
8. The TNSNAMES.ORA File is located at C:\:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\ and has the following text (only the related text is shown here):
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\tnsnames.ora

access_db.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(Address = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = RIYAZDESKTOP) (PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = hsodbc))
(HS=OK)
9. The database link is created as follows:
SQL> create database link access_db USING 'access_db.world';
Database link created.
SQL>
10. Now the test and selection:
SQL> select * from employees@access_db;
select * from employees@access_db

see Connect 9i to Microsoft Access Database

Connecting to Oracle database from ASP = please help!

i have tried every kind of combination of connection string to connect to a 9i database from ASP but it does not work!
I am using XP Professional and have 9i Developer and ODP.NET installed but I want to use OLE DB (Oracle or Microsoft) to access the database. I have a feeling the web page is not seeing the driver. here is my code:
<% Option Explicit %>
<HTML>
<HEAD><TITLE>Oracle Data Access</TITLE></HEAD>
<BODY>
<%
Dim objConnection
Dim objRecordset
Set objConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
With objConnection
.ConnectionString = "Provider=MSDAORA;Data Source=obiwan;" & _
"User ID=user; Password=pass;"
.Open
Response.Write "ADO Provider=" & .Provider & "<BR>"
Set objRecordset = .Execute("SELECT sysdate, user FROM dual")
End With
</body>
</html>

Try using this connect string:
Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=tiger;User ID=scott;Data Source=ORA92;Persist Security Info=True
substitute your username/password and Data Source here.
This works on Windows2000 with Microsoft OLEDB provider
for Oracle.

Connect to Oracle Database from Windows Mobile

Is there any Oracle Client product that will allow Windows mobile powered devices to connect to an oracle database? I'm using .net and the compact framework 2.0.
Anyone have a clue?
Regards,
Andras Eliassen

I think I would call it a client tool. Maybe I wasn't so precise in my previous post, sorry. What I need is basically this:
I have a 9i database that is running on a unix box on my network. I have created a Visual Basic .Net application that is using ODT to select, insert, update and delete records in this database - and also executes some stored procedures.
Now I'm trying to move to the next step, and I want my windows mobile powered device/phone to do the same thing - Select, insert, update, delete and execute stored proc/pckgs on the database.
The only way I have found to do this, is by implementing some webservice or something in between my windows mobile device, and the database, because I cannot find dataaccess drivers/components (ODT or the like) that will work on a windows mobile powered device.
Any suggestions?
Regards,
Andras Eliassen

Can anyone help? This is currently driving me nuts. I was able to
connect when I changed it to an application.
I am using the Iplanet Webserver 6.0 on a Linux 7.2 platform. Like I
said, sqlplus works fine, standard java application works fine but
when I change it to a servlet (which means it now goes through the
webserver, I get this error message)
Does anyone know what the source code is trying to do at
OCIDBAccess.java:1743 ?
Thanks guys!

Tony, could you please explain me better the procedure that you wrote?
What are the boxes? My situation is similar:
| ServerSocket (1) |
| (192.168.1.100, 5555) |
|
|
|
|
| Proxy |
| Someone wants to connect to the ServerSocket (1) |
That is not true. You CAN do it but you need a box
outside the firewall with proper IP address to help
you. I am not sure if Sergio still wants the answer
today after more than a year from the original post (I
did not see the post until today when I try to search
for something else). Anyway, if such a box is
available (I call it 2nd box), you could first
establish a socket between the two boxes by HTTP
tunneling (I assume it is a http proxy). You have to
initiate the socket from the 1st box. Then start
another server socket on the 2nd box, forwarding the
traffic it gets from outside back to the 1st box using
the established channel. That is it.

Please not that I dont have any problem in connect to database locally.

Thanks Nicolas,
Actually, there was a problem with my oracle client installation. I uninstalled it and then installed back again but still, even after following your instructions I get some error.
Here what I did:
Created tnsnames.ora file as below:
HR84DEV =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.56.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = HR84DEV)
Placed it under appropriate directory and then checked the connection with database using the command shown below:
C:\Users\Administrator>tnsping HR84DEV
TNS Ping Utility for 32-bit Windows: Version 11.2.0.1.0 - Production on 10-FEB-2

Used parameter files:
C:\MyApps\Administrator\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = 192.168.56.1)(PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = HR84DEV)))
OK (20 msec)
Then tried to connect to database as below:
C:\Users\Administrator>SET ORACLE_SID=HR84DEV
C:\Users\Administrator>SQLPLUS /NOLOG
SQL*Plus: Release 11.2.0.1.0 Production on Fri Feb 10 08:25:56 2012

SQL> CONNECT SYSADM/SYSADM@HR84DEV
ERROR:
ORA-28547: connection to server failed, probable Oracle Net admin error
But still getting error.
I Googled this error and tried to figure out what the problem is and came across the possible cause which is because I haven't specify that the service should run as a user who is in domain admin group.
well, I am not really sure about this and dont know what user name and password I should enter in OracleserviceHR84DEV-properties-log on-this account.
do I really need to set this?
