Oracle (OCI8) driver not available!

I have installed DAC successfully. So I start my client and am trying to create a new connection.
I did the following:
1) Clicked Configure
2) by default, Create connection is selected, I clicked Next
3) Entered Name, selected Connection Type as Oracle(OCI8), entered TNS names as ORCL and created new authentication file.
4) Clicked Test Connection and it shows the error 'Can't connect to the database'. When I click Show details, I get the following:

Can somebody help me resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance!!!

Resolved. ojdbc14.jar was missing in \bifoundation\dac\lib.
Downloaded and copied the file to the location and rebooted my system.

Oracle Merant driver not available

Hi friends,
For Creating ODBC Database Connections for DAC Client, i need to create ODBC connection and for it i tried to give ODBC connection for oracle database and they adviced the below points in the docs like
To create ODBC connections for Oracle databases
1. On the Windows machine that will host the DAC Client, navigate to the ODBC
Data Source Administrator.
Use the System DSN tab of the ODBC Data Source Administrator to create an
ODBC connection to the Oracle Business Analytics Warehouse database using the
Oracle Merant ODBC driver that is supplied with Oracle BI Applications.
For example, you might create a database connection called Connect_to_OLAP.
2. Click the System DSN tab.
3. Click Add.
4. In the list of drivers, select the Oracle Merant ODBC driver that is installed with
DAC, for example, Oracle Merant ODBC Driver in DAC 10g_Oracle - OH1.
But i couldnt find Oracle Merant ODBC Driver in DAC 10g_Oracle - OH1 driver in my System DSN, hence i have installed DAC softwares successfully. Then how it is possible to establish a ODBC Connection to DAC like mentioned in docs.
The drivers that i found are below like
Oracle BI Server 11g_OH161304452
Oracle in OraClient11g_home1
Informatica Data Services ODBC Driver
MERANT OEM 5.3 32-BIT Btrieve
Whether it is possible to establish a ODBC connections using the above drivers or i need to install Merant ODBC driver inorder to establish ODBC Connection.
Kindly advice me.
Regards,
Saro

Hi Svee,
Thanks for the reply again, yes i can find "odbcad32.exe"
C:\WINDOWS\system32 and SysWOW64.
Soon after clicking that, the ODBC Data Source Administrator open(in which it generally opens (via) Administrative tools>>Data Sources(ODBC))
But in that svee, i can find so many Merant drivers under System DSN tab along with the below drivers
Oracle BI Server 11g_OH161304452
Oracle in OraClient11g_home1
Informatica Data Services ODBC Driver
SQL ServerThese are the MERANT Drivers that are available
MERANT OEM 5.3 32BIT(xml, txtfile, Sysbase wire protocol, SQL Sever protocol, Oracle wire protocol etc)
Whether i need to choose any one of those merant drivers. I choosed and tried with Oracle wire protocol but it is returning error like Registry not found.
So, like you said
Since you got Oracle 32 bit client this should work.
I tried with the Oracle client driver "Oracle in OraClient11g_home1" and tried to configure with the user but it resulted in error like ORA-12170 TNS: Connect timeout Occurred. Since my tnsping odbidb1 is pinging.
What might be the problem Svee.
And also i created too many users in my database with the following table spaces like
Users----->Table spaces
DAC---->OBIEE_TOOLS
INFO--->OBIEE_DATA
BIAPPS-->EBSAPPS
BIAPPS--->BIAPPS
In the above i used the user INFO while installing informatica server.
So, whether i need to use the same user INFO while configuring with DAC, in the sense while connecting ODBC connectivity for the DAC(for username/Password) whether i need to use the same user INFO or else i need to use the other user that i created.
Thanks.

How to set the oracle oci8 driver?

hello all:
I've set up the oracle thin driver and it works. but when I change to
oci8.it don't work
below is config and errors:
<JDBCConnectionPool DriverName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
InitialCapacity="5" LoginDelaySeconds="5" MaxCapacity="15"
Name="ocipool"
Properties="user=yanji;password=yanji"
Targets="myserver" URL="jdbc:oracle:oci8:@pg01"/>
Could not load 'oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
If this is a type-4 JDBC driver, it could occur if the JDBC
driver is not in the system CLASSPATH.
If this is a type-2 JDBC driver, it may also indicate that
the Driver native layers(DBMS client lib or driver DLL)
have not been installed properly on your system
or in your PATH environment variable.
This is most likely caused by one of the following:
1. The native layer SO, SL, or DLL could not be found.
2. The file permissions on the native layer SO, SL, or DLL
have not been set properly.
3. The native layer SO, SL, or DLL exists, but is either
invalid or corrupted.
For more information, read the installation documentation
for your JDBC Driver, available from:

Hello, Jenny I am glad you found your resolution. I too am having problems isung
the oracle 0CI8 driver. My connection pool is creating fine, but my server is
crashing with JVM errors.

RefreshMinutes="0" Targets="portalServer"
TestTableName="WIP_TABLE" URL="jdbc:oracle:oci8:@servername"/>
My classpath sets my classes12.zip file first. My path sets %WEBLOGIC_HOME%\bin\oci817_8
and %WLCS_ORACLE_HOME%\bin.
Am I setting the right dll and protocol in my .dll? Where can I find documentation
on these properties definitions?

when you say oracle\bin and oracle\lib , on what driver is the oracle

you have to specify the full path.

1. Dont copy this file oci8jdbc.dll, to bin folder. Make sure
you
place
<oracle_home>\lib in your PATH before starting the server. Make
sure
your
ORACLE_HOME environment varable is set to <oracle_home> folder.
eg. set ORACLE_HOME=c:\ora816 before starting the server.
so you must have done something like
set ORACLE_HOME=c:\ora816
set PATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\bin;%ORACLE_HOME%\lib;%PATH%
2. double check if you set your CLASSPATH something like this,
CLASSPATH=%ORACLE_HOME%\jdbc\lib\classes12.zip;%CLASSPATH%
in the server startup script just before starting the server.
3. start the server the connection pool should work.

I've edited the StartWeblogic.cmd, set the classes.zip into CLASSPATH,and
copied the oci8jdbc.dll to the bea\wlserver6.1\bin. errors stillappears!
my weblogic version is 6.1 and oracle is 8.1.6 .
why the thin driver is ok but the oci driver can not work?
I logined in the oracle website and look for the jdbc.but I find
that
jdbc
all provide for jdk1.2 or jdk1.1. because the weblogic6.1 based
jdk1.3.
I
think i can not use those drivers.
I think my oracle driver is ok,because i installed the jboss and
bas4.5
in
my computer. they all can use oci8 driver properly.and they all
based
jdk1.3.
by the way. I 've tryed added the oracle\bin path inStartWeblogic.cmd,

To use oracle oci8 driver:
You should have classes12.zip in weblogic classpath.
You should have ocijdbc8.dll in your weblogic path..
You can download ocijdbc8.dll from oracle website.

I can not update to itunes 10.4, and when I try manually it keeps saying error f drive not available??

I have tried loads of times to update to Itunes 10.4 but it fails every time and tells me to try and download the file manually then install it but this also fails and keeps giving me a error of "F drive not available"
I have itunes on a removable hard drive on my laptop if this makes any difference
Please help
Thanks

Open a Windows Command prompt, e.g. Hit Start > Run, type in CMD and press OK. Type in SUBST F C:\<enter>
This will map F: to C: until the machine is restarted or you enter
SUBST F: /D at the command prompt. Now you can try uninstalling or upgrading the software again. (If upgrading the software, install the software in the default location, not on the F:\ drive.)

I assume you have Windows on the client. The "Drivers" page of the ODBC_DSA should list all installed drivers. You require:
name= Oracle ODBC Driver
version= 8.01.07.00 (or something similar)
company= Oracle Corporation DO NOT USE the Microsoft one.
If this does not show, then either it was not included in the Oracle Client installation or you have not rebooted after the Oracle Client installation; the ODBC driver is not visible until rebooted.

Oracle oci8 driver problem

Hello !
I work with Weblogic 701, oracle 9.2.0.1 database, oracle 9.2.0.2 client, and
oracle jdbc drivers classes12.zip
When I connect with the oci8 (not the thin) driver and try to execute the application,
I get this error :
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: Native Library D:\oracle\ora92\bin\orageneric9.dll
already loaded in another classloader
I have to shutdown weblogic and start it again. If I redeploy my application,
I get the same error and I have to shutdown again ...
and when I connect with the thin driver and try to execute the extract method
on a XMLType object, I always have a sqlException.
I see on the web that the extract method can only be applied with the oci8 driver.
How can I do ???
Thx

Hi. Go to oracle's site and download the very latest appropriate thin
driver for your DBMS, and put the driver ahead of all weblogic stuff in the
classpath the server is going to use.

Actually, I meant a version conflict between the Oracle JDBC drivers (in classes12.zip) and the installed OCI binaries on the same computer. If both the JDBC and OCI dll's those that were installed from the same Oracle distribution media you should not be getting these errors. Double check your path and classpath. Make sure the versions are precisely the same (8.1.7 for example, not just 8i).

Does multilingual work with Oracle oci8 Driver? I am facing problems with oci8 while thin driver works fine ...

Hi, I am currently working on iPlanet 6.0 SP4 with oracle 8.1.6. I am planning to make my application language independent. while testing I figured out that if i use oci8 driver or oracle, it doesn't support other language characters while the thin driver supports fine. Can anybody help me regarding this? Is this a bug, or some possible configuration issue? Has somebody came across this problem before? How do i go about it ?

We faced same issue. Looks like the native driver does not support the automatic data encoding/decoding from/to database. You can always workaround this by reading everything as byte stream and then by letting java handle the encoding/decoding. But we decided to use type4 thin driver which does this automatically if you set the content type. Anyway we are told that later versions of IAS may not support native drivers, so if you are serious about multi language shift to type4 thin drivers now itself.

Hp laserjet 1022 driver not available

However all my attempts to update the driver software from within System Preferences, to to install a new printer have failed. I always get an error message saying that the appropriate software was not available on the server. Anyone have any ideas on hwo to fix this, or where to get driver software that I can manually install?

Power cycle both devices and try by downloading manually necessary drivers:

Network Drives not available in Applications?

Hi,
I have a mcabook pro running leopard and another mac on my network that is not. This other mac has my firewire drive hooked up to it and all my files are saved there. I can access the other computer and drive just fine through the finder but when I am in an application the other computer and the drive are not available when I am trying to open or save a file. Can anyone help? Is there a way to add an icon for my other computer to the dock or to my desktop?

That's a large part of the problem. You have more than one font manager on your Mac. If you're not using Font Book, delete it. Then you need to reset its orphaned database so OS X stops trying to control which fonts are, or aren't active according to that data.
To remove Font Book from the hard drive, follow these steps:
1) Open Font Book, and then its preferences. Uncheck the box for "Alert me if system fonts change". Close the preferences and shut down Font Book. Put the Font Book application in the trash and delete it.
2) Restart your Mac and immediately hold down the Shift key when you hear the startup chime to boot into Safe Mode. Keep holding it until OS X asks you to log in (you will get this screen on a Safe Mode boot even if your Mac is set to automatically log in). Let the Mac finish booting to the desktop and then restart normally.
This will reset Font Book's database and clear the cache files in your user account. The main goal in this step is to remove the orphaned Font Book database from the hard drive. With the Font Book application no longer on the hard drive, a new one cannot be created. Which is what we want.
3) Close all running applications. From an administrator account, open the Terminal app and enter the following command. You can also copy/paste it from here into the Terminal window:
sudo atsutil databases -remove
This removes all font cache files. Both for the system and all user font cache files. After running the command, close Terminal and immediately restart your Mac.

Oracle is still not available

Hi
This is help request #2 (#1 was Oracle not available???)
Maybe it's on me and i'm to stupid to make it work, but it has

First thanx to the contributions to #1
OK, i still need an access to our oracle805 DB via network. My
listener is running and "lsnrctl status"
tells me that my oracle instance has 1 service handler. so i
guess it is working fine. My instance is running, 'cause i can
login via sqlplus <login>/<password>. BUT it dosen't work in a
loopback like sqlplus <login>/<password>@<SID>
By doing this i get an "ORACLE is not available" error - and
this doesn't make any sense to me. The environment (ORACLE_SID
and ORACLE_HOME) is set correctly.
I don't know what i should do now and i really hope there is
somebody who can help me.

ORA01002 with Oracle thin driver - not with JDriver

Hi,
I use weblogic 5.1 SP10. I was using the weblogic JDriver to create a connection
pool for my entity beans with BMP. I switched from the weblogic Jdrivers to using
the Oracle thin driver (classes12.zip) for my connection pool. Now i get a ORA-01002
(fetch out of sequence) for my ORACLE 8.1.6 SELECT FOR UPDATEs. I can solve this
by - explicitly setting autocommit to false for the connection. This is within
in the EJB transaction.
Why I have to do this with the Oracle thin driver and not with the Weblogic JDriver
Any thoughts on this are appreciated !

From this I assume that you know what you are doing but I have to ask, are you
using the TxDataSource to obtain the connection in your BMP entity beans? If
so, I would talk to support...

Hi Robert,
I am using the TxDataSource in the workout.properties file.
eg:
weblogic.jdbc.TXDataSource.MyDBPool =MyDBPool
The connection pool is defined as below:
weblogic.jdbc.connectionPool.MyDBPool =\
driver=oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver,\
url=jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost:1521:MyDb,\
loginDelaySecs=1,\
initialCapacity=10,\
maxCapacity=20,\
capacityIncrement=2,\
allowShrinking=true,\
shrinkPeriodMins=15,\
refreshMinutes=10,testTable=dual,\
props=user=admin;password=password

Oracle Integration Repository not available

Hello,
there is a problem with Oracle Integration Repository which was available
at http://irep.oracle.com. The Welcome page is available but I cannot open the repository.
Is there a new address for this repository or it is not available anymore ?
Kind regards,
Marcin

Is there a new address for this repository or it is not available anymore ?It should be available but looks like there is an issue with the site. Just wait for some time and it should be fixed.
There is no alternative site for iREP.
If you are on R12, you can use "Oracle Integration Repository" which is available as a responsibility.
Thanks,
Hussein
