Oracle on Linux Development Team

Oracle Linux on Development Team
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Does such a beast exist?
Why is it that the Oracle on Linux Development team almost never
respond to questions in this forum?
Their presence is underwhelming...
Compare this 'presence' to say the Oracle Developer Team
(Developer Forum).. who answer a huge proportion of the
postings.. And yet this is one of the more active forums..
Responses from Oracle would be greatly appreciated.. besides they
would be a huge marketing coup for Oracle as developers tend to
be more loyal if they feel that their grievances/complaints/wish
lists are heard and not just falling on deaf ears..

It's true that most questions are answered by other users. There
are two reasons why I think that's a good thing.
1. It's just how Linux has always worked. We police our own
ranks, fix our own stuff, and solve our own disputes.
2. I believe that #1 was a driving factor for companies like
Oracle to port to Linux. The worldwide support network
available to the Linux community is something even micro$oft
can't match. From Oracle's point of view, it's a win/win.
A user community that fixes it's own stuff and never calls me
up? That's every vendor and sys-admin's dream.....
However if there are product related bugs/issues, that clearly
have no connection to configuration/misuse, (like missing libs,
ala patch[1-3].tgz) it IS the duty of Oracle Development
Personnel to step in.
Thanx for hearing me out,

    actually, I'm not so much clearly understood what is your question.

  • Contact Oracle Database Development Team

    Does anyone know of any email address where in we can send to Oracle Database R&D Team our suggestions and feedback etc.
    I have been trying to find the contact info for a very long time. It is so difficult to find one.
    Is it that Oracle is not interested in getting feedback or suggestions ?

    In each book of Oracle you have a link "send us your comment". You can try this email address. You can also try on metalink.
    You should figure out there are each year millions of bug reports, enhancement requests, problems, etc...
    Ok, good luck!
    PS: why not posting it here? we could interrested in your feedback ...

  • Productive Oracle On Linux

    We are in the process to select a database server for our research data (40 GB) we have two options Linux or Solaris. I would like to know how many people are around using Linux in an productive environment of this size or larger? Are you happy?
    Also I read that disc performance might be a problem. Does anybody have expierience with RAIDs (eg. those available from DELL)?

  • Cannot connect properly to Oracle on Linux from Windows

    Good day all,
    I’ve got 2 virtual machines running on my Mac:
    -     Centos 5.4 with Oracle 11gR2
    -     Windows 2003 server with Oracle 10gR2
    From Linux box I have access to Oracle database on Windows box (both directly and via a database link), however from Windows I have problems accessing the oracle database on the Linux box.
    From Windows, if I try to set up a connection using Oracle’s SQL Developer using connection type “Basic”, I get “IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection”. When I use “TNS”, then it works.
    From the linux box it all works fine as the “oracle” user, but when I log on as another user (in this case “informatica”) it doesn’t work properly any more.
    To sketch what both environments look like.

    [ the sequence of dots means I took out a whole lot or lines with virtually the same information, only different port(s) ]
    What’s noticeable is that port 1521 seems solely assigned to the localhost IP-address, 127.0.0.1.
    Another thing I noticed is that from a different user in Linux, so not “oracle”, using SQL Developer I cannot access the local Oracle database via TNS. When choosing TNS the dropdown box for “Network Alias” – which normally is populated with entries from TNSNAMES.ORA – is completely empty. On a “users and groups” level I basically assigned all the groups the oracle user is member of, to the other user (called informatica).
    And to make it even more interesting, at first it worked using “Basic” (in SQL Developer), but since implementing the TNS_ADMIN environment variable, it doesn’t work at all !!!
    Trying it via SQLPLUS as the “informatica” doesn’t work either:
    [informatica@ilmserver ~]$ sqlplus system
    bash: sqlplus: command not found
    I’ve assigned the “dba” group to “informatica”, or rather, I have assigned all groups to the “informatica” user as the “oracle” user has.
    Needless to say I am no Linux expert, rather a quite inexperienced Linux-user.
    So bottom line, the situation I’d like to be able to create is the following:
    •     Linux Oracle DB accessible from “informatica” (or any other) user on Linux, via both TNS and java-based
    •     Linux Oracle DB accessible from remote machine (running Windows 2003 server) via both TNS and java-based
    •     And for Informatica to work properly, it says it needs the TNS_ADMIN environment variable, so the “informatica” user must have full Oracle connectivity with TNS_ADMIN in place.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks, Patrick

    Hi Billy,
    Thanks for your elaborate answer.
    Not sure whether I can use it though, since the application using the oracle database (i.e. Informatica ILM 5.3.2) appears to have a specific need for TNS.
    I thought I had a solution (not the prettiest for sure) by just copying TNSNAMES.ORA to an accessible location, change ownership to "informatica" user, have TNS_ADMIN point to it, and Bob should be my uncle. Well... he isn't!
    In SQL Developer when I choose TNS as connection type, the drop down box is STILL empty.....aaaaahhhh!!!!!
    I was advised to play around with primary groups, so I tried oinstall and dba as primary groups for informatica user, all to no avail.
    And I can't even test it with SQLPLUS because I don't have access to it as "informatica".
    Who knows what the exact reason for that is... I know I'm a far cry from an experienced linux user, but I assumed that having the Oracle Home bin directory in PATH, and assigning the oinstall group to informatica user, would ensure access to to any executable in there. Well... NOT!!!
    +[informatica@ilmserver ~]$ sqlplus system@orcl+
    bash: sqlplus: command not found
    This is driving me nuts. Thought that finding a solution for this wouldn't be this hard, but essentially I've been digging for 3 days now.

  • Sql srver datetime to oracle by sql developer

    Using the tool Sql Developer 3.1.07, try to migration an sql server 2008 database to oracle 11gR2. The tool failed at a few places. One point:
    sql server table:
    create table Table1 (
    [modificationDatetime] [datetime] NOT NULL,
    The tool generated Oracle script for the same table:
    create table Table1 (
    modificationDatetime DATE DEFAULT SYS_EXTRACT_UTC NOT NULL,
    The script actually does not work in oracle with the error:
    SQL Error: ORA-00984: column not allowed here
    00984. 00000 - "column not allowed here"
    Simplely replacing 'SYS_EXTRACT_UTC' with 'sysdate' works.
    Wondering if this is a bug of the tool.
    Thanks,
    Fan
    Edited by: FanZeng on Feb 23, 2012 11:42 AM

    The SQL Server table I used to reprot the issue at our SQl Dev team is:
    drop table DateTimeMig;
    create table DateTimeMig ([modificationDatetime] [datetime] NOT NULL default getutcdate());
    And I reproduced with 3.1 the migration code issue:
    -- DROP TABLE DateTimeMig CASCADE CONSTRAINTS;
    PROMPT Creating Table DateTimeMig ...
    CREATE TABLE DateTimeMig (
    modificationDatetime DATE DEFAULT SYS_EXTRACT_UTC NOT NULL
    Issue is investigated by migration developer team.

  • Oracle enterprise Linux and 10gR2 instalation error

    I have installed Oracle Unbreakable Linux (from 4 CD's).
    When tried to install Oracle 10gR2 I got error that displays when it's 83 % already installing:
    Error in invoking target 'client_sharedlib' of makefile '/u01/app/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/network/lib/ins_net_client.mk
    I have installed developement pack (aditional rpm packages installed), but I don't know what's happening.
    I read on other forum (Error installing Oracle Client on Red Hat 4.0 that I might miss some package.
    My system is fully 32 bit, so I think I do not need any 64 bit package, like suggested in that thread!?
    Second question:
    I thought that "Unbreakable Linux from Oracle" has all additional packages prepared for Oracle installation ...at least for current release 10gR2?
    Is that true?
    Third one:
    If I use croatian keyboard, I cannot type "_" (underscore sign. How to have that (for me very important key)?
    Thanks...

  • Java appl. with oracle on Linux

    Hello all,
    I would like to ask how to connect my Java application to

    Hi Mark,
    I am also running Oracle 8.0.5 in my RD6.0 machine.
    I installed Developer2000 into my win98 machine.
    I tried to login using the developer2000 into the

    I can use the SQL*Plus to connect to this database

  • Oracle on Linux vs. Oracle on NT (Performance)

    Does someone have information about some benchmarks studies of Oracle on Linux vs. Oracle on NT?
    Thanks so much,
    Andre

    I looked at this for a data warehouse project. Same hardware (multi-boot) with various Linux distros (Red Hat, SuSE, and Mandrake) vs. NT4. Loaded the same data in all configurations.
    Results: performance was better on all Linuxen that I tested than it was on NT, but not a big enough difference to choose on this basis alone.
    I did, however, see that all the Linux variations were MUCH more stable than NT. I do almost all my development on a Linux server now, just because I got tired of rebooting NT every time my mouse moved. However, thus far most of the production with this warehouse is still being done on NT--so it CAN be made to work, I just don't understand why anybody wants to do it the hard way.
    Subjectively, I thought Red Hat was the most inconvenient Linux to work with, SuSE was easy, and Mandrake was nice but it wasn't officially supported by Oracle. I've also had good experiences with SuSE support, but Red Hat support just ignored me. That's just me; I don't know how others have fared with the various support departments.
    I did this about a year ago, so it was 8.1.6 Oracle and whatever Linux versions were current at the time (all had 2.2.* kernels); I have not revisited this with 9i and the only Linux distribution I'm using now is SuSE 7.2.

    I'm assuming you have an oracle database installed on a linux server and need to know how to access it from your desktop machine.
    If so you have choices
    - you could install the oracle client software on your desktop. This would allow you to use sqlplus or any number of other apps to access the database.
    - you could use putty or any number of other free or paid ssh clients to establish a terminal session on the server. From there you could also run sqlplus. The difference is that it would be running on the server whereas in the first scenario it would be running on your desktop. The database itself doesn't care - either way sqlplus is just another client.
    using an ssh client to open a session on the server requires you to have an OS account on that server. Using database client tools at your desktop does not require an OS account on the server. As a DBA, I prefer NOT to give you an account on the server.

  • Problems Installing Designer 6.0 over Oracle 8i (Linux SUSE 8.0)

    I have problems installing Designer 6.0 over Oracle 8i (Linux SUSE 8.0). When I try to create the repository the installation hang up. I try over Oracle 8i (WIndows 2000) and the problems remain.
    Please any body can help?
    Is it possible to install Designer 6i and generate forms 6.0 (I mean for using Developer 6.0 (NOT 6i))?
    Best regards,
    JAGC

    Marcel,
    I had the same problem. Oracle gives as an answer that Designer 6.0 is not supported against 8.1.7. In the specified package a statement is issued which is a problem for 8.1.7. I changed that package and now it works fine.
    Comment as below and replace with the delete statement, then it compiles fines.
    I don't know if any problem can occur after that, but a Migration from a 1.3.2 repository to 6i works fine through this repository. Hope this helps.
    Kind Regards
