9i Client/Server installantion Hangs on XP Pro

I'm running a Sony VAIO PCG-GR300P notebook, PIII-1.13 GHz, 512MBs RAM, Win XP Pro.
When installing the Client tools from the 9i Client download, installation hangs at 27%. When installing Client tools from Server download, it hangs at 7%.
I was able to install 9i Enterprise Server on my PII-400Mhz desktop, 512MBs RAM, Win 2000 Server.
Why can't I install the client tools on my Sony notebook?
TIA

check documumentation to see if personal edition works with XP professional or XP home

Client/Server hang up?

I'm writing a basic client server program. I created an ArrayList to hold all the sockets of a connection so each client could, hopefully, eventually interact.
Right now my client is a text field with a text area under it. A user types a command up top and then hits enter and sends that along to the server. However when i send in the message it seems to hang up and never sends back a reply. But what's really odd about it, is that if i close my server window and there by shutting it down the client then outputs exactly what i expected it to if it was working right. So im curious why there's this hangup in my code?

Don't run networking code in the constructor. Start a separate thread for the accept loop.

Pro*C using client server and the sqlca - any takers

Hi all
This is my 1st post and it's about Pro*C.
At work, we are porting our Pro*C apps from VMS to XP/NT. Has anyone done this before, anything to be aware of?
Also am planning a client/server architechture for my next project, but with Pro*c, and am concerned about the conficts of using the sqlca between child processes...any ideas/suggetions?

Best Approach to Share Photos in Client Server Environment

Ive been doing research on the best way to share scanned documents inside a client server application (PB11) but am not sure what's the quickest way to do it.
My brainstorm came up with:
1. Use MS SharePoint to share photos.
    Pros: Relatively quick to install
    Cons: Potentially difficult to maintain. No integration with PB application.
2. Use web server to share photos
    Pros: PB integration possible
    Cons: Difficult to maintain
3. Use Oracle database to store photos
    Pros: PB integration possible and easy to maintain
    Cons: Hardware resource demanding.
The idea is to be able to share scanned documents to different users which can be then associated with different business information such as journal entries, assets, customer application, and many others.
Of the three above which one would offer the quickest solution?

Hi Chris,
I have a Fujitsu software that can scan and store images to folders (may contain photos of assets, sorry for the mixup tween photo and image), sharepoint, but not to a web server - although now I suspect I can configure the webserver to just automap the file folders to the webserver's URL (I guess I had amnesia). However there's another feature which I haven't found out yet and that is whether the scanning software can store the metadata directly to the database. Most likely it doesn't thus the reason why sharePoint looks attractive. The other concerns you mentioned I believe I can handle at a later time.
Thank you.

Writng-Reading stream through client-server application

I am developing a client-server application which is the client sends a sentence to the server and the server will convert the sentence from small letters to all capital letters. The problem is when the sentence send by the client contains special character such as Registered Trade Mark or Copyright , the server receive the sentence but the special character has changed to undefined symbol. After the server do the conversion process, the server couldn't send back the sentence because of the undefined symbol. It will make the system hangs.
I use socket connection to do the process. The system use DataOutputStream object to pass the sentence . The source code is as below:
Socket clientSocket = new Socket("localhost", 111);
DataOutputStream outToServer = new DataOutputStream(clientSocket.getOutputStream());
BufferedReader inFromServer = new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(clientSocket.getInputStream()));
sentence = "Stomach-Comfort is the all-natural alternative to over-the-counter products, such as Tums�, Rolaids� and Pepcid AC�.";
outToServer.writeUTF(sentence + '\n');
modifiedSentence = inFromServer.readLine();
System.out.println("FROM SERVER: " + modifiedSentence);
Any body can help me?

Well, I think that this would work but I haven't tried it, but you could evaluate the numerical value of each
character and see if it falls within the range of ASCII fields that you want to convert.
If not don't convert it.
So for example,
for each char in your stream:
1) get a char's numerical value
2) If between 97-122 decimal
convert to the capital (forgot the exact method name)
3) else
keep value as it is.

Server socket Hangs

Hi,I am using the server socket in Java to listen on a port on a computer..
I am using the windows platform
I use ms vj++6.0
I am facing a peculiar problem.
about once in 10 messages received by my server socket,
The server socket hangs .
Hangs means it stops responding to the incoming message & so my application
is unable to take any action.
I used a port scanner & found that my server port is in a "close_wait"
state.
Can someone tell me the reason for this.
is it a problem with my server or can the client that sends the message be
also responsible for this type of an error.
Heres the code for my server
public server()
try
server = new ServerSocket(2156);
serverthread = new Thread(this);
serverthread.start();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Cannot Start Thread" + e);
public synchronized void run()
try
while(true)
String line;
System.out.println("listening for the client");
fromclient = server.accept();
System.out.println("client has responded");
InputStreamReader isr = new
InputStreamReader(fromclient.getInputStream());
BufferedReader instream = new BufferedReader(isr);
PrintWriter ostream = new PrintWriter(new
BufferedOutputStream(fromclient.getOutputStream()));
System.out.println("talking to the client\n");
ostream.println("Hye Client");
ostream.println("Bye");
ostream.flush();
System.out.println("listening to the client \n");
String temp;
int count=0;
String ip="";
while((line=instream.readLine())!=null)
System.out.println(line+"\n");
if (line.equals("Bye"))
break;
if (line.equals(""))
continue;
else
System.out.println(line+"\n"); /*Print the line that has come in the
socket*/
ostream.close();
fromclient.close();
catch(Exception e)
System.out.println("Cannot listen to the client" + e);
I hope somebody can help me out .
Thanx in advance

You don't seem to properly close the server socket any where. Here why don't you look at this skeleton. This may help you.

Client- server -client

Hi...
for training i created a simple server (with multithreading) and a simple client. I tried also to send strings from client to server and vice versa. Now...how can i create a connection between two clients using the server? For example, how can a client (connected to the server) send messagges to another client (connected to the same server)?

Errr, well,
I'm no pro at this, I just started my own client -> server like program a while ago. So I'll give you my code and a quick overview here. And while your all at it, tell me why the program won't run from the "run.bat" file. It works on my computer, not others. I'll leave the server on for those who want to try it.
FOLLOW THE DARN INSTRUCTIONS (theres only 6 short ones)
http://www.freewebs.com/ringdelapong/index.html
Pay no attention to the name, "Black Path". I intend on making this a game, thus the name...
Overview:
--------- Server
1) Have a server (not include) with a thread that accepts any client
sockets.
2) Each time the server accepts a socket, start a thread to read input and send output to.
--------- Client
1) Find the server based on some IP address.
2) Setup a input, output thread
That easy. Client code is in the jar file of that program. If you look at the clientMessage class, you'll note that a special code was used to talk between server and client. The server and clients only understand this code format.
Yo welcome.

Who Knows the best way to deploy video Using FMS / Apache / IIS Server running on Win XP Pro?

Right now I do not have “server”. Example: I do not have anything like windows sever 2000, 2003 etc. but I have and running IIS server on the same Windows XP Pro. On this very same machine I installed FMS server with the Apache that came with the FMS. I have read and followed the instructions time and time again in deferent ways to deploy my video on the server but no idea I used is working so my clients could view my videos. Looking forward to have site like “hulu” / "You Tube".
Pleaseif you was successful streaming videos, I need step by step information from anyone whom was able to streaming videos to the public on the internet with Flash / Apache / IIS Server running on Windows XP Pro.

Hello World,
This issue has been taken care of! Thanks to all that read my message and wish they could help. It was all but a simple mistake that created the problem. For all that may think they themselves has the same problem please check your spellings at times that could be a serious issue! It was all because I missed an alphabet of “s” the word was “Thumbs” but I spelled it “Thumb” missing “s” for this simple reason the Thumbnails refuse to populate in the Tilelist. But soon this was corrected, both images populated in the tilelist. For the videos I have to make correction in ActionScript from playlist-streaming to playlist and the video was on. Now you know you too could try looking into your designs and ideas!
Thanks.
Jos.

Help in client server project

Asalam-o-Alikum!
I m writing client server project. In that project there are many classes that are being used in both (client application and server application). Im using JCreator and also netbeans 5.5 IDE. Plz anyone can help that should i design 1 project for cilent and server. or 2 different projects 1 for client and 1 for server. If i have to use 2 different projects than how can I make available those classes to both projects (client and server) that are being shared by client and server. and i have to make 1 project than how can i run both client and server separately.
thanks in advance.

Aslam-o-Alikum!
I am designing a new project that depends on another project. I want to use the classes made in previous project into my new project. Someone (as above) has told me to make the jar file of that class and set the class path to that jar file. Anyone can further tell me that how can set the class path of that project into my new project. And how to import the classes from that project that i have made previously???
Example:
I am designing project name "A" and i have to use a class "b" that not the part of project "A". But actually it is part of project "B". That i have made previously. Please tell how this can be achieved? making jar file of project "B" is right answere then how can i set the path of project "B" in project "A". and how to import class "b" into project "A". I am using JCreator pro 4.0
This is the summary of obove posts. so plz dont read above posts just read this and plz help me if u could.
Plz reply me with a simple example.
Thanks in advance...!

Client/Server to Web-Based application Conversion

Hi! Everyone,
I have couple of questions for you guys.
Our Client had recently upgraded Forms 4.5 to 6i to move from Client/Server based application to Web based application.
They are using Forms Server 6i Patch Set 1, OAS 4.0.8.1, Windows NT Service Pack 5 and Oracle 7.3. They are facing the following error every now and then, when they run the forms,
"FRM-92100: Your connection to the server was interrupted. This may be the result of a network error or a failure on the server.You will need to re-establish your session."
Please let me know what might be causing the above error. The only problem i can think about might be Oracle 7.3. If i am right only Oracle 8 and above supports Forms 6i.
Can anyone let me know some tips and/or techniques to upgrade Forms 4.5 to 6i. If there are any important settings/steps which we might have over looked during the upgrade, please list them.
Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Jeevan Kallem

Client/server program validation - is it possible?

I've been mulling over this problem for a few days, and am starting to wonder if it's theoretically possible to find a solution. I'm not looking for specific code, this probably won't even be implemented in Java, I'm just wondering if there is a theoretical program model that would work in this situation.
The short version:
Validate the data generated by a client program, without knowing the original data.
The long version:
This is a "profiling" system for a MMOG (Massively Multiplayer Online Game). The MMOG is an internet based client/server graphical program where each client connects to the server and they interact with each other and the virtual world. They pay a monthly fee for access to the game. My program is not affiliated with the MMOG or its makers. I have no connections inside the company and cannot expect any cooperation from them.
The "profiling" system is also a client/server model. The client program runs in the background while the MMOG client is active. It accesses the memory of the MMOG client to retrieve information about the player's character. Then, possibly on request or maybe immediately, it sends the character data to our server.
What I want to validate is that the character data being sent is unmodified and actually comes from the MMOG program.
I can reasonably expect that with mild encryption and some sort of checksum or digest, the vast majority of problems can be avoided. However, I am not sure it's possible to completely secure the system.
I assume that the user has access to and knowledge of the profiler client and the MMOG client, their assembly code, and the ability to modify them or create new programs, leveraging that knowledge. I also assume that the user does not have access to or knowledge of either of the server applications - the MMOG server or mine.
In a worst-case scenario, there are several ways they could circumvent any security I have yet been able to think of. For instance, they could set up a fake MMOG client that had the data they wanted in memory, and let the profiler access that instead of the real thing. Or, they could rewrite the profiler to use the data they wanted and still encrypt it using whatever format I had specified.
I have been considering using some kind of buffer overflow vulnerability or remote execution technique that would allow me to run specific parts of the client program on command, or get information by request, something that could not be anticipated prior to execution and thus could not be faked. But this seems not only insecure for the client but also not quite solid enough, depending on how it was implemented.
Perhaps a series of apparently random validation codes, where the client does not know which one actually is doing the validation, so it must honor them all. Again, this is very conceptual and I'm sure that I'm not explaining them very well. I'm open to ideas.
If I don't come up with anything better, I would consider relying on human error and the fact that the user will not know, at first, the relevance of some of the data being passed between client and server. In this case, I would include some kind of "security handshake" that looks like garbage to the client but actually is validated on the server end. A modified program or data file would result in an invalid handshake, alerting the server (and me) that this client was a potential problem. The client would have no idea anything had gone wrong, because they would not know what data the server was expecting to receive.
I hope I have not confused anyone too much. I know I've confused myself....

Yes, that is the general model for all MMOGs these days - no data that can actually affect the game is safe if loaded from the client's computer. All character and world data is sent from server to client and stored in memory. Any information that is saved to the client's computer is for reference only and not used by the game engine to determine the results of actions/events etc.
My program accesses the MMOG client's memory while the game is running, and takes the character information from there. It does not have direct access to the MMOG server, and does not attempt to modify the data or the memory. Instead, it just encrypts it and sends it to our server, where the information is loaded into a database.
The security issue comes into play because our database is used for ranking purposes, and if someone were to hack my program, they could send invalid data to our servers and affect the rankings unfairly.
I'm just trying to think of a way to prevent that from happening.

SENDING EMAIL USING ORACLE9i CLIENT/SERVER

I HAVE DOWNLOADED 2 UTILITY LIBRARIES D2KCOMN and D2KWUTIL TO MY COMPUTER. THESE 2 LIBRARIES ARE COPIED TO AN ORACLE FORM. ON THE FORM, THERS IS A BUTTON. IN THE WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED-TRIGGER, I HAVE CODED
WIN_API_SHELL.WINEXEC('"C:\PROGRAM FILES\MICROSOFT OFFICE\OFFICE\OUTLOOK.EXE"-c IPM.Note/m"'||:email.recipient_name||'&cc='||
:email.recipient_name2||'&subject='||:email.subject||
'&body='||:email.mes||'"',WIN_API.SW_SHOWNORMAL,TRUE);
:email.recipient_name,
:email.recipient_nam2,
:email.subject, and
:email.mess
ARE FIELDS ON THE ORACLE FORM.
THE NAMES ARE DEFINED BY THE PROGRAMMER.
THE NAMES OF THE FIELDS ARE NOT RESERVED WORDS.
WHEN THE CODE IS EXECUTED, MICROSOFT OUTLOOK IS OPENED AND THE RECIPIENT LINE, COURTESY COPY LINE, SUBJECT LINE
AND BODY OF A NEW MESSAGE ARE PREPOPUTATED WITH THESE FIELDS FROM AN ORACLE FORM.
THIS ROUTINE WORKS FINE ON AN ORACLE6i CLIENT SERVER BUT IT WILL NOT WORK WELL ON AN ORACLE9i CLIENT SERVER.
WHAT DO I NEED TO DO TO CHANGE MY CODE? DO I NEED TO USE NEW UTILITY LIBRARIES? I WOULD SURE LIKE TO KNOW WHAT TO DO.

Oracle9i Forms does not support client server - so you are running in a different environment (even though you may still only be onl two tiers).

VPN Site-to-Site or VPN Client Server with Cisco IP Phone 8941 and 8945

Hi everyone,
I decide to deploy a CUCM (BE6K platform), SX20, and IP Phone 8941/8945 on Head Office and Cisco SX10 and IP Phone 8941/8945 for branch offices (actually 9 branch offices).
The connection will use internet connection for HO and each branch offices.
And the IT guy want to use kind a VPN client server or VPN site-to-site for the connection through internet,
what kind of VPN client server or VPN site-to-site that recommended for this deployment?
and what type of Cisco router that support that kind of VPN (the cheapest one will be great)?
So the SX10 and IP Phone 8941/8945 in branch offices can work properly through internet connection?
please advise
Regards,
Ovindo

Hi Leo,
technically, the ipsec users will not use up any premium license seats, so if you have 10 ipsec users connecting first, the premium seats are still free and so you can then still have 10 phones/anyconnect users connect.
However, the 250 you mention is the global platform limit, so it refers to the sum of premium and non-premium connections. Or in other words, you can have 240 ipsec users and 10 phones, but not 250 ipsec users and 10 phones.
If 250 ipsec users and 10 phones would try to connect, it would be first-in, first-served, e.g. you could have 248 ipsec users and 2 phones connected.
Note: since you have Essentials disabled I'm assuming you are referring to the legacy "Cisco vpnclient" (IKEv1 client) which does not require any license on the ASA. But for the benefit of others reading this thread: if you do have Anyconnect clients (using SSL or IPsec/IKEv2) for which you currently have an Essentials license, then note that the Essentials and Premium license cannot co-exist. So for e.g. 240 Anyconnect users and no phones, you can use Essentials. For 240 Anyconnect users and 10 phones, you need a 250-seat Premium license (and a vpn phone license).

How to delete the workbench client server name in FDM

Hi Gurus
How to delete/change the workbench client server name in FDQM?
regards
Sarilla

OK, I understand now. You are referring to the Load Balance Server Group. Yes, this can be done:
a) Browse to Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\Products\FinancialDataQuality\SharedComponents\Config
b) Locate the LoadBalanceServerGroups.xml file
You can delete this file. The next time the workbench is launched it will ask you to set the load balance server group again and will create this file again.
