817 / 9i windows client against 9i Unix Database server

Does it cause any problem like core-dump if I have both 8.1.7 and 9i windows clients connect to 9i Unix Database server to different account(sid) ? Thanks

Any combination of 8i and 9i clients and servers should work. You only start running into problems when you have 7.3.4 clients and 9.2 servers (or vice versa) or older 8.0 clients and 9.2 servers (or vice versa).
There is a certification matrix available on the OTN main page (under Get Support I believe) that will list all the permissible combinations.

  • Oracle 8i Windows Client and 9i Unix Database server

    Is it recommended to use Oracle Windows 8i client against Oracle 9i Database server?
    Does anyone have an official Oracle link about this?
    Thanks
    Dipak

    Only by putting an Oracle 8 database between them... You can set up an Oracle 8 database with a dblink to the Oracle 7 database and connect to that via an Oracle 9 client. Not pretty and not particularly efficient, but it'll work in a pinch.

  • Copy file from client machine to unix db server

    Dear all,
    I have oracle form 10g, and data base server using 10 r 2,
    I have an oracle for to browse client XML file and return the name of the file including the path to TEXT item what I want to do after that is to copy the seelcted file from the client to DB server (hint this server over Unix operating system)
    I tried
    V_Cpy_Result := Webutil_File.Copy_File ('C:\File_Name.Xml', '/u01/oradata/odsuat/ssr_xml_dir/Outbound/File_Name.Xml');
    but this does't work, please provide me with the way or the command that I can copy the selected file from client to Unix DB server...

    Hello,
    If you want to transfer files between client machine and A.S. or database machine, use the Webutil file_transfer package's functions.

  • How does Oracle client communicate with a database server

    Looking to idenify how Oracle Database Client for OpenVMS communicates with database server and whether the protocol used is secure. Realize that it is using whatever the configured network protocol is (ie. tcpip) but is languauge it uses ( ie. SQL, etc..)  secured/encrypted and if not what steps can be taken to encypt

How come this values reset to null? What is causing this to reset?Nothing in this has anything to do with the sever. You need to check what the client did on his machine that caused registry to get modified?
    How does oracle ODBC works with Oracle database? Need to know all the steps involved?The connectoin from any client is initiated by a client process. This client process is supposed to get a server process to do his work. So if this is done, the client can work now with oracle . Please see the concepts guide for the gory details of the entire process.

  • Problem synchronizing windows clients with solaris 10 NTP server

    Hello everyone,
    I realyy need help on the following:
    I tried to synchronize windows 2003 as client with NTP server running in Solaris 10
    My Time Zone in the NTP server is GMT+3, and in my windows is also set to GMT+3
    When I start NTP server and clients , I got 6 hours delay between the clients and the server
    I tried to synchronize the Solaris server with another solaris system, the synchronization is working fine
    Your help
    Regards
    Hakim Fourar

    True (but only for later releases). But since he mentioned getting a 6 hour offset after starting them, that makes me think that the systems are communicating, and that the time zones are incorrect.
    This is easily verified by using 'ntpq -p' and 'date ; date -u'. The first will show if the client thinks it is synchronized to a server (and what the UTC offset is in miliseconds). The second will show the date in the default timezone and in UTC.
    If you're not using POSIX, you'd think that GMT+XX meant east of UTC, but for POSIX, it means west of UTC.

  • Files locked when Windows clients are connected to ML Server via smb

    Hi,
    I've got a problem with windows 7 clients that are connected to my MacMini Server.
    When they open files on a shared folder, and modify them, files are locked when they try to save them.
    I think it might be the op-lock option present in older versions of Mac OS X Server that can be involved, but it disapeared in Lion and older version of OS X Server.
    Does someone knows how to activate/deactivate this option, or does someone already got this problem?
    Server is a MacMini with 10.8.5 + Server 2.2.2
    Clients are Windows 7
    Thank a lot for your answers
    Bertrand.

    Officially, Adobe does not support opening or saving files to a server --- because so many different things can go wrong with networking.
    The permissions error means that the file/directory permissions are incorrect on the file server, or that the OS or server is incorrectly reporting file/directory permissions.
    Photoshop does more error checking than most applications, because we have seen so many problems in the past, and don't like applications silently losing or damaging files (which we see in other applications).

  • OLEDB 8i against Oracle 9i Database

    Is it recommended to use Oracle Provider for OLE DB 8i driver against Oracle 9i Database server?
    Does anyone have an official Oracle link whether this is supported or not.
    Thanks
    Dipak

    Assuming you have an 8i client, this is a supported configuration. It new 9i features require some additional client coding, you may not be able to access them from the 8i client. I doubt you'd hit any of these issues since you're using OLE DB, though.
    Unfortunately, I'm not aware of an official Oracle link that explains the policy. There is probably some note on Metalink that explains it.

    hi
    How to get up and running with WebUtil 1.06 included with Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 on a win32 platform
    Solution
    Assuming a fresh "Complete" install of Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2,
    here are steps to get a small test form running, using WebUtil 1.06.
    Note: Oracle_Home is used as an alias for your real oDS ORACLE_HOME.
    Feel free to copy this note to a text editor, and do a global find/replace on
    Oracle_Home with your actual value (no trailing slash). Then it is easy to
    copy/paste actual commands to be executed from the note copy.
    1) Download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jacob-project/jacob_18.zip
    and extract to a temporary staging area. Do not attempt to use 1.7 or 1.9.
    2) Copy or move jacob.jar and jacob.dll
    C:\webutile is the folder where you extracted Jacob, and will end in ...\jacob_18
    cd C:\webutile
    copy jacob.jar Oracle_Home\forms\java\.
    copy jacob.dll Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\.
    The Jacob staging area is no longer needed, and may be deleted.
    3) Sign frmwebutil.jar and jacob.jar
    Open a DOS command prompt.
    Add Oracle_Home\jdk\bin to the PATH:
    set PATH=Oracle_Home\jdk\bin;%PATH%
    Sign the files, and check the output for success:
    Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\sign_webutil Oracle_Home\forms\java\frmwebutil.jar
    Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\sign_webutil Oracle_Home\forms\java\jacob.jar
    4) If you already have a schema in your RDBMS which contains the WebUtil stored code,
    you may skip this step. Otherwise,
    Create a schema to hold the WebUtil stored code, and privileges needed to
    connect and create a stored package. Schema name "WEBUTIL" is recommended
    for no reason other than consistency over the user base.
    Open Oracle_Home\forms\create_webutil_db.sql in a text editor, and delete or comment
    out the EXIT statement, to be able to see whether the objects were created witout
    errors.
    Start SQL*Plus as SYSTEM, and issue:
    CREATE USER webutil IDENTIFIED BY [password]
    DEFAULT TABLESPACE users
    TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp;
    GRANT CONNECT, CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO webutil;
    CONNECT webutil/webutil@rcci
    @Oracle_Home\forms\create_webutil_db.sql
    -- Inspect SQL*Plus output for errors, and then
    CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM webutil_db FOR webutil.webutil_db;
    Reconnect as SYSTEM, and issue:
    grant execute on webutil_db to public;
    5) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\default.env, and append Oracle_Home\jdk\jre\lib\rt.jar
    to the CLASSPATH entry.
    6) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\formsweb.cfg insde [default] add :
    archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar
    archive=frmall.jar
    also add :
    [webutil]
    WebUtilLogging=off
    WebUtilLoggingDetail=normal
    WebUtilErrorMode=Alert
    WebUtilDispatchMonitorInterval=5
    WebUtilTrustInternal=true
    WebUtilMaxTransferSize=16384
    baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljini.htm
    baseHTMLjpi=webutiljpi.htm
    baseHTML=webutilbase.htm
    archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar
    WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar,f90all.jar
    archive=frmwebutil.jar,f90all.jar
    lookAndFeel=oracle
    7) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\webutil.cfg and add :
    transfer.database.enabled=TRUE
    transfer.appsrv.enabled=TRUE
    8) Start the OC4J instance
    9) Start Forms Builder and connect to a schema in the RDBMS used in step (4).
    Open webutil.pll, do a "Compile ALL" (shift-Control-K), and generate to PLX (Control-T).
    It is important to generate the PLX, to avoid the FRM-40039 discussed in Note 303682.1
    If the PLX is not generated, the Webutil.pll library would have to be attached with
    full path information to all forms wishing to use WebUtil. This is NOT recommended.
    10) Create a new FMB.
    Open webutil.olb, and Subclass (not Copy) the Webutil object to the form.
    There is no need to Subclass the WebutilConfig object.
    Attach the Webutil.pll Library, and remove the path.
    Add an ON-LOGON trigger with the code
    NULL;
    to avoid having to connect to an RDBMS (optional).
    Create a new button on a new canvas, with the code
    show_webutil_information (TRUE);
    in a WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger.
    Compile the FMB to FMX, after doing a Compile-All (Shift-Control-K).
    11) Under Edit->Preferences->Runtime in Forms Builder, click on "Reset to Default" if
    the "Application Server URL" is empty.
    Then append "?config=webutil" at the end, so you end up with a URL of the form
    http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=webutil
    12) Run your form.

  • How do I configure my Windows clients to talk to Mac OS X Server 10.6

    We had a MacAuthority technician install the server software for us, but he did not configure the Windows clients to talk to the server. I have tried several approaches, all evidently wrong.  Everything I have read says the Windows clients need "open directory" passwords, and he has set them up as "shadow passwords". Heaven only knows what else is messed up.  Please someone step me through this -- I will set them up as new users and see if I can make it work that way.

    What sort of a resulting configuration or environment are you seeking?
    If you're looking to have your Windows clients access storage on your OS X Server and to not authenticate with your OS X Server system, then you can dispense with some of the configuration steps.
    However if you're looking to have the same login everywhere (Windows and OS X), then requirements become somewhat more complex.
    And which version(s) of Windows?  Particularly if you have Windows 7, the options and requirements differ.
    It's less common to have Windows configured to authenticate to OS X; it's more common to use Windows Server and its Activie Directory, either in isolation or in combination with an OS X Server in what's called a "magic triangle" configuration.  Alternatively (if you do want to set up this direct authentication of Windows and OS X Server and Open Directory), then see Mac OS X Server: Alternatives to Windows NT 4.0 domain control (PDC) technology (HT4945); that uses pGina.
    And before you proceed here with any work involving authentication, delegation or related tasks, launch Terminal.app from Applications > Utilities folder, and issue the following non-destructive command to verify your DNS is correct:
    sudo changeip -checkhostname
    You'll need to specify an administrative password when prompted.  Proper local DNS services are central to getting any of this stuff to work, and this command will (non-destructively) indicate if DNS is correct or if there are issues or changes needed.
    The OS X Server 10.6 documentation is available from Apple, and that can help provide you with some background in this topic.  The 10.6 intro, 10.6 User Management, and 10.6 Open Directory would likely be worth downloading and skimming.  Probably also 10.6 File Services, if that's part of your goal.  (Running a server isn't quite as no-IT-required as might be hoped, unfortunately.  And I don't know of a short cookbook for this stuff; the steps and configurations can vary, depending on your local requirements - apologies on pointing to the docs here.)

  • Why won't a Windows 7 client connect to my web server?

    I've got 5 Mac clients that can connect to my Snow Leopard server. They use file sharing, iCal, and web services.
    We're trying to put a Windows 7 client on the network to use just file sharing and web services. Unfortunately, I can't get the Windows client to connect to the server at all.
    We're using an Airport Extreme as a local network router. All devices are successfully connecting to this device.
    When I try to access web services on the server using the Windows 7 client, I get an error message that the server is inaccessible.
    Anyone know what might be different about how the Windows device is accessing the server vs how the Mac devices are?

    How are you trying to connect to it? Just typing in its web address in a browser?
    Is your DNS configured correctly?

  • Windows Client log to the Mac Os X Server ?

    Hello everybody
    I would like to create a network with Mac OS X Server. I have Windows PC's that would also be in the network.
    Does windows clients can connect to the Mac Server with a username and password ?
    Thank you.

    At the simplest, sure, Microsoft Windows clients can connect to OS X Server services with appropriate credentials.  Mail and file sharing, for instance. 
    Beyond password-based authentication, a more advanced configuration is probably not as simple nor as easy as you might want.   Windows clients really want to use Microsoft Active Directory here and Kerberos authentication probably won't get you where you want.   (This assuming that you can get the Windows clients to accept OS X Server Kerberos authentication.)  
    The usual approach for single sign-on in heterogeneous environments is the so-called Magic Triangle configuration with both Microsoft Active Directory running on a Windows Server and Open Directory running on OS X Server.   This involves the two domains communicating.  It might be easier to get OS X clients operating off Windows Server, particularly with the use of profiles in more recent versions.
    As an alternative to Windows Server, recent versions of the Samba server package include authentication services compatible with Active Directory, and you may be able to get your Windows clients to authenticate to that, and build that as part of a Magic Triangle configuration.  You'd need to download and configure the Samba server, and get the Samba AD support working.
    Related discussions and documentation here and here and maybe this thread.  There are other discussions.

  • Connection of oracle database in database server from application server

  • How can we position 5 Database Server for a centralized Database ?

    1) We are providing a e governance solution for an organization,where we are providing a  centralized database,Client have provided 5 Database server for the same.how can we position the Database Server? there are 5000 Concurrent users and 25000 users,SAN
    Storage for approx. 60 TB,Database size of 2 TB and growth of 1 TB every year
    2) How many instance can we have for above said Case?
    3) How much RAM Required ?

    Thanks for sharing information!!
    DB size is going to be too huge, you need to check for data archival option along with proper compression option.
    As per requirement, you need good server setup like; CPU: 4 cpu, 12 cores and RAM will be good to start with 256 GB.
    When you say 5 db server, is that it means 5 physical server not db instances rt?
    If that is the case then you can go for SQL Server 2014 to use that in memory options along with so many good support for temppdb, query optimization due to cardinality changes, SSD support etc.
    Intances will be:
    INS1, 2 : main instance and archival instance, using first two servers out of 5 servers.
    INS3: DR server, if it will not be active all the time and then we can easily check for 1/4 load on DR server so you can configure AlwaysOn to check INS1 and DR instance to get all HA DR part too.
    In case of INS4, INS5 can be used for reporting purpose being configured as other replication to act as local DR too.
    Hopefully I have covered all the available objects you have.

  • Htmldb 1.6 and 10.2 database server

    Hi,
    I've been trying to find out is it supported to upgrade database which hosts htmldb 1.6 to 10.2. In htmldb 1.6 install document it says htmldb 1.6 should be installed to 9i or 10.1 database. I was not able to find anything from certify for HTMLDB. Can you please let me know is htmldb 1.6 certified against 10.2 database server.
    Thanks,

    Nina - 1.6 and 10.2 will work. The install guide for 1.6 doesn't mention 10.2 because it was published 2 years ago.

    if you use Oracle forms 10g+ you can use the webutil to do whatever you want between db server and client pc. There are numerous examples on the net, for example:
