ASP SCRIPT CANT CONNECT TO ORACLE 9i via Oracle9i Client

Please help...i get an ORA-12154 when attempting to link access and oracle. what are some ways to correct this issue. i have researched as much as i understand..
error that occurrs is as follows:
[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name(#12154...........
I HAVE installed and CONFIGURED ORACLE 9i ODBC DRIVER.
ODBC to Oracle works mit Excel or Access.
TNS works good with Developer 6i and SQL Plus.
Only my ASP VBSCRIPT on my IIS5 cant connect.
please can anyone help me !

Making connection to Oracle 9i via SQL Plus - Mark

Hi,
I am unable to connect to oracle 9i via dos prompt or SQL Plus.
I installed the satabase on windows.
The SID is obiwan. Please help, already browsed similar topics and its not happening.
Thanks in advance.

The Listener is the process that is listening for incoming remote connections to the DB(s).
Database and Listener have Windows services, and services have to be started. Also, from DOS prompt you can do :
C:\> lsnrctl stat
to see if the Listener is active : the result should be the list of active DB(s).
To connect locally to the DB do the following :
C:\> set ORACLE_SID=obiwan
C:\> sqlplus "/ as sysdba"
The result should be something like SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.4.0 - Production on Dom Apr 10 16:58:32 2005

SQL> then it means that the DB is not up. In this case try :
SQL> startup
That way you are connected as sysdba, you can startup and shutdown the DB, create users, and so on. Do not use this connection to create objects (tables, indexes and so on) :
create an user, using the command "create user" (See [url http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96540/toc.htm]Sql documentation), and connect as that user, for example
SQL> conn scott/tiger
or, at DOS prompt
C:\> sqlplus scott/tiger
If you create a TNS alias, as I said before, you can use that as connection string from DOS prompt
C:\> sqlplus scott/tiger@<TNS alias>
or using SqlPlus in the Oracle menu.

How connect to oracle RAC via the RSG using port forwarding

Hi all,
I got a problem trying to connect to oracle RAC via the RSG using port forwarding .
on command line i sue to connect :
sqlplus 'username/password@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=firstRACnode)(PORT=1521))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=secondRACnode)(PORT=1521)))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=MSDP)))'
but when using port forwarding i forward the port 1521 to a local port and make ssh to the DB node ( as normal with other nodes but not RAC) but it never work with me for this situation
can any one give me a help ifthere is any changes should be done on the server side , or if any one faced such a problem and found a solution
Thanks,
Prathap.

Step 1
Create a ssh tunnel from local machine to remote db server. Forward any local port (should not be a well known port or a port in the private/dynamic port range) to connect to the database server's listener port. If the ssh tunnel is into the db server itself, the connection (port forwarding) can be on localhost (as the Listener should be listening on it). Alternatively use a public IP of that db server.
Example (using OpenSSH on Ubuntu 9.4):
Local server port 1527 tunneled to port 1521 on database server 192.168.0.100 using o/s account johnd (we connect to port 1521 on db server via 127.0.0.1):
ssh -X -f -N -o ServerAliveInterval=3 -L 1527:127.0.0.1:1521 [email protected]
Step 2
Run sqlplus and connect to the local fowarded port on localhost, using the applicable connection settings (e.g SID/Service Name, etc).
sqlplus scott/tiger@"(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=127.0.0.1)(PORT=1527)) (CONNECT_DATA=(SID=orcl) (SERVER=dedicated)))"Note that the Listener must not hand our connection off - as the case would be when using RAC for example and connecting via a Service Name and not a SID. We need the Listener that accepts our connection to immediately hand us over to the database instance (via either a dedicated server or a shared server dispatcher process).

Connecting to Oracle lite via VB6

Hello
is there a better way to connect to Oracle 10g when using VB6?
this is what I have:
Under references I am using Microsoft DAO 3.6 Object library
I do have a module where I defined the following public variables:
Public wsOracle As DAO.Workspace
Public cnOracle As DAO.Connection
Public strConn As String
and a function to alllow me to connect to the database:
Function ConnectDB()
On Error GoTo Error_DataBaseError
strConn = "ODBC;DSN=MY_DATABASE;UID=user;PWD=passr"
Set wsOracle = DBEngine.CreateWorkspace("", "admin", "admin", dbUseODBC)
wsOracle.DefaultCursorDriver = dbUseClientBatchCursor
Set cnOracle = wsOracle.OpenConnection("", dbDriverNoPrompt, False, strConn)
Error_DataBaseError:
If Err <> 0 Then
Call ErrorCatching("ConnectDB ()")
End If
End Function
It seems to work but I am having issues, two apps are connected to the same Database one is in power builder y the other in VB6 after a certain time of inactivity I get timed out from the VB app and this gets also into the power builder app.
but if one app is open for a long time it seems to work just fine. any ideas why?
I read that I can use the Oracle Lite 40 ODBC Driver
but I can't seem to find a way to do the call from VB6
any ideas?
any enlightenment will be appreciated

Unfortunately, in 2.0 beta, the Infobus Data Form wizard
connection editor only supported the Oracle Thin, OCI7 and OCI8
drivers. For 2.0 production, Oracle Lite and the JDBC-ODBC bridge
will also be supported.

JDeveloper Team

It is pointless, and just adds to the confusion, to name your listener anything other than the default name of LISTENER
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
Client requests to 'localhost' (or its ip address of 127.0.0.1) never leave the client machine. Hence, any listener configured for that address will never receive a request from any other machine.

You've thrown out a huge amount of detailed data, but showing a variety of errors, and combinations. Overall, I get the impression you are confusing remote vs. local connections. Please read the following, then come back and let's focus on one error at a time.

Cant connect to oracle error 12154

It appears I also have a simple cannot connect to the oracle database error when starting to use crystal reports from my desk top.
Have installed the oracle client 10.2.0.4 and can connect using oracle net manager and the tnsnames.ora file was created. How does crystal reports know what tnsnames file to look for? I am using the oracle server option from crystal reports.
This should be pretty straight forward but very little doc on this specific area.
thanks
bhm

Hi
Got the direct connection to work by removing the oracle client and crystal reports.
Re-installed another oracle client (same version 10.2.0.1 but has more options) and all connections worked.
Then reinstalled crystal reports and can connect directly using the SAP database password. Not sure why the first install did not work, had sqlplus, odbc etc. Some areas worked others did not.
I am going to do some investigation into the sap connectors to understand what exactly that gets us.
thanks
brad

Cant connect to Oracle database using oracle db client

Hi All,
I recently created a virtual machine running windows server 2008 on my windows 7 host. Oracle database 11g is already installed on host OS(windows 7) and I have installed oracle 11g client on the guest OS(windows server 2008) and trying to connect to oracle database from remote server using oracle client but getting this error:

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 =

Placed it under appropriate directory and then checked the connection with database using the command shown below:

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?

Connection to Oracle XE via IIS/ASP app was working then stopped

I am prototyping an application for my new management here so that I can recommend they use Oracle XE.
The connection to the Oracle XE database appears to have stopped working, via an IIS/ASP application I wrote. I can still connect through ODBC using native MS Access to Oracle XE, when logged into XP, its just when I try to log in using the app via IIS I get the following error:
Unable to establish connection to database.
Error information:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80040E4D)
[Oracle][ODBC][Ora]ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
It was working for a while, like the whole first week. It might be related to the fact that that I finally rebooted, not sure.
I have tried many, many things. I made the IUSR account an admin on the box hoping that maybe it had just lost access to the local ODBC/TNSNAMES. Right now all the components are local to my development box, from the IIS server to the Oracle eXtended Edition database (XE, free). Like I said, it was working. I did have this same message I believe early on, which turned out due to the fact that my ODBC DSN was a local DSN, instead of a System DSN, which I overcame at that time. But it just started happening again, possibly after a reboot.
I also tried switching to a local MS Access database, and I got a similar message. I moved the Access db to c: root, and it appears to work, so it appears to be a file/directory access issue.
But I'm not sure how to resolve it because I would much prefer to use the Oracle database.
Thoughts?

As far as the connect string goes, I'm not sure exactly what to specify to you.
I am using the default connect string that comes when you install XE.
I.e., "XE".
I suspect this might be a path issue for the virtual account that is used by IIS sessions. As you may know, when IIS runs, it logs the web user into the box using a dummy account, typically prefixed with the string "IUSR".
Although I made this account an admin to the box, I think I may need to add some of the Oracle Client directories to the path which is accessed by this IUSR account. The problem is, the acount, with its password, was set up by default and I don't know what its password is. But I think that I could try to adde Oracle's home path to the default system path, what do you think?
In other words, I don't think the XE connection libraries are available to this dummy IIS account. The strange thing is, it worked for a while, ostensibly till I rebooted.
Know also that I am not using the Oracle Client per se, although I did install it and try it with mixed results. I am just using the Oracle OLE DB ODBC that appeared when I installed the Oracle XE server itself.

Any ideas?

How does SCAN work?
“When a client submits a request, the SCAN listener listening on a SCAN IP address and the SCAN port is contracted on a client’s behalf. Because all services on the cluster are registered with the SCAN listener, the SCAN listener replies with the address of the local listener (Using SCAN the connection is initiated using the SCANIP, but is established using the VIP) on the least-loaded node (Each scan listener keeps updated cluster load statistics) where the service is currently being offered. Finally, the client establishes connection to the service through the listener using VIP on the node where service is offered.All of these actions take place transparently to the client without any explicit configuration required in the client.”
So, to SCAN Works you must aware:
Server (cluster)
-The service must be registered on Local/Scan ListenerI believe I've done this now but see below.
Database (rac)
-You must use remote_listener parameterThe remote listener parameter I have is:
SQL> show parameter remote listener
NAME                    TYPE     VALUE
remote_dependencies_mode     string     TIMESTAMP
remote_listener           string     rac-scan:1521
remote_login_passwordfile     string     EXCLUSIVE
remote_os_authent          boolean     FALSE
remote_os_roles           boolean     FALSE
result_cache_remote_expiration     integer     0
Cient
-Must resolve all SCAN Names and VIP Names (check with nslookup)I'd made a mistake there. My VIP names were not available from DNS.
-Must access port of Listener

Thanks, that document was useful however I don't think I've got it completely right as yet as I have no listener_scan2.

Connecting to Oracle XE via regular 10g client - ORA-12514

I have had the 10g client installled on my computer for a while, for developing against our company Oracle databases. I have now installed the XE database locally on my computer so I can do some local development - according to the information I've been able to find the two should live side-by-side without problem.
I can still connect to our company databases just fine, but I can't get a connection to the local XE database at all.
I've added this line to tnsnames.ora:
XE = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = XE)))
The error I'm getting connecting is:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
Thanks for any help!

Hi,
I did mean duplicates even between different tnsnames.ora files.
As I understand, if you XE works, you should not need do anything for that tnsnames.ora.
Just find how entry should be for client.
BTW, what tool you will use for XE? Do you need client?
E.g. if you use SQL Developer, you do not need client or set anything to tnsnames.ora
Regards,
Jari
Edited by: jarola on Jan 18, 2011 2:30 PM
BTW, it might good to search Instant Client forums if you find help there.
If you do not find answer, then it might good idea post question there.
At least for me this is more client question than XE.
Instant Client
But as I understand it should not be any problem use 10g client for XE.
I just have never done that =)

Sony HT-CT100 cant connect to hd tv via hdmi?????

Have you already setup the HDMI input at the TV in the HDTV menu?
It isn't a matter of using a proper channel.
You don't hold the P key.
Hold the Windows key down and tap the P key to see the available projection options.

Running Oracle Reports via a client using system.exec call from war file

Hi all,
I am trying to deploy a war file application to a J2EE 10.1.3 application server. The deployment successfully completes. However testing the application fails.
When testing, the application reveals that calling a Oracle Reports 6i client (using a cmd line exec) from the war file returns application errors. The errors we get from executing the call below (using debug statements), creates this error:
OperatingSystemCmd: cmd = D:\Oracle\Dev6i\BIN\rwcli60 MODULE="CLTMLST" USERID="<userid>/<pwd>@<db>" DESTYPE="FILE" DESFORMAT="PDF" DESNAME="<path>\<pdf filename>.PDF" PARAMFORM="NO" BACKGROUND="NO" SERVER="r6i.world" TOLERANCE=0 ADVCODE="<param>"
OperatingSystemCmd: Command returned 3
WrsRunReport: Done executing report
WrsRunReport: Error running report Return code 3
Error on Screen is REP-0178 : Cannot connect to reports service.
However running the same command from a operating system command prompt in windows reveals that the command runs successfully.
Is there any particular OC4J J2EE settings that are required to get this statement to run properly?
Any help is most appreciative.
Cheers
Rodney

Hi All,
From much research and experimenting to get this to work I looked at the java.lang.Runtime class and noticed that seperate processes can be started using this very important Java class.
The first thing that I experimented with was in regards to seeing the environment OC4J runs against. Using the java.lang.Runtime class I executed a standard "cmd /c set" command in my Windows environment, and noticed that Oracle Application Server uses its own environment and not a standard windows login environment for its OC4J containers. Apache Tomcat on the other hand uses the standard user login environment.
So to get the application to be able to work properly we needed to override the particular environment the process needed to be able to get it to work. There is a exec command which allows you to override completely the environment for a process you would like to run. This method call does not in any way shape or form change the standard OC4J environment. This was done by executing the same "set" but with the overriden environment. Note that no environment variables from the OC4J container are carried into this new environment.
Cheers
Rodney

ASP Crystal Report 2008 (12) Oracle 9 and Visual Basic!

Hi All,
I'm mainting an old application and I need to simulate the same client environment in my machine.
I have a VB application (with COM+ server components) that's creates a report object with parameters. But the only thing that this application does it's call an ASP page that contains all the logic to call a .rpt file, connect to Oracle 9i and then show the crystal report inside a MS webbrowser component (activeX) in the VB form.
I already setup the IIS, and the site there, I put all the .rpt files in the site and if you try to access without calling from VB you can run the asp pages, but the reports still doesn't appears.
These ASP pages should connect to Oracle and then show the rpt file, but I'm facing the following error:
The url that's the application creates is for example this: http://localhost/application1/createreport.asp?sSessionId=2&ReportName=TransactionsProcessed.rpt&parameter1&parameter2... etc etc...
Script Error Number: -21471922153
File could not be opened because the library "P2sora7.dll" cannot be found.
User Error Text: An error has ocurred in CreateReport.asp while logging onto the Oracle database server. Please try again.
I already check the database connection and it is working fine using ODBC, and the application works fine with the database.
The file p2sora.dll is in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32, I already copied from another machine, and I have installed Crystal Report 2008 (12) in my server machine with Windows 2003 server, that's the application and web server where report should be run. I know that the old application was executed with Crystal 7, but I cannot found this version to buy.

Connection to Oracle 8.0.6

I have recently upgraded from 8.0.5 to 8.0.6 on an AIX 4.3 server. Before the upgrade it used to be possible to connect to Oracle from an NT client either via the Hosts file, or via the definitions in TNSNAMES.ORA. However, now it is now only possible to connect using a Server name specified in TNSNAMES.ORA; trying to use the actual Host name generates the following error:
ORA-12514: Message 12514 not found; product=RDBMS80; facility=ORA
Any ideas?
null
