Can 11g client connect to 10g server?

I am very new to Oracle, so hope this isn't too basic of a question. I thought I saw something through my searches where the clients were backward compatible to older versions of the server. Will this work, 11g client connecting to a 10g server?
I have a custom windows app that uses the Oracle client to pull data from an Oracle server at another location and pushed the data into a MS-SQLExpress database for a local cache to be used during th day. I do not have the source for this custom app or the time to re-create this custom app. We just installed a new Windows 2008 R2 (64bit) server and I just need to get the client back on the new server so the custom app will work again. The old server was running 8.1.7 client, but going to 64bit OS I want to use a more current client to avoid issues with 32bit/64bit compatibility problems.
I am downloading the 11g 64bit client now, but want to make sure I'm not wasting my time and need to get a different client. Please advise.
Thanks!

In general, yes, you can use a later version of the client to connect to an earlier version of the database and vice versa. But that only generally works for a few major releases. Unfortunately "10g" and "11g" are somewhat ambiguous-- both could be referring to one of two major releases.
Metalink 207303.1 is the client/server interoperability matrix. If by 11g you mean 11.2 and by 10g you mean 10.1, the 11.2 client will not work with a 10.1 database. If the client is 11.2 and the database is 10.2, it should be at least 10.2.0.2. If the client is 11.1, the database should be 10.1.0.5 or 10.2.0.2 or higher.

  • Oracle 9 client connecting to 10g server

    Hello,
    Is it possible to connect an Oracle 9i client to an Oracle 10g server? Is there any known issues/problems with that?
    Because I'm facing the issue that with the same application connecting to different oaracle versions, when I connect to the 10g I get some connection errors, I'm wondering if going back to client 9i and connect to a 10g server would be a good test.
    Thanks in advance,
    Lucas.

    If Oracle knows little about connection pools it is true. If by changing the Oracle version some issues arise I wouldn't immediately discard the interoperability version issue.
    In this case the OP faces probably a big issue. The application has to be upgraded and all the compatibility matrix revisited. The main problem when working with unsuported versions is that in case it has to do with a bug from 9i Oracle has limited support by means of the Extended Support option.
    Does it have to actually do with interoperability, bugs or application configuration is something that cannot be accurately established after the partial information provided by the OP.

  • What can't client connect to RMI server on same machine?

    The machine in question is a Solaris 8 system running Java 1.3. I've checked all the networking permissions, and they seem to be ok. Any ideas as to what might be causing this?

    Thanks for the reply! Dumb question: How do I start the registry? I see debugging code that indicates that the server is [probably] being started.
    Usually this means that the registry isn't running or
    the server isn't running.

  • Can we restore oracle 11g RMAN backups to 10g server

    Hi,
    I have RMAN backups (full backup)of oracle 11g database. My server was suddenly crashed due to hardware failure.
    We have another Oracle 10g server. Is it possible to restore RMAN backups of 11g database to Oracle 10g server???
    Thanks

    I don't have 11g server ready with me. The other server running oracle 10g and I dont have rights to install oracle 11g on the 10g server. So I can not test the RESTORE/RECOVER commands.
    If anyone had experience in the past, please let me know whether we can RESTORE RMAN backups of 11g database to oracle 10g server...
    Thanks

  • *DAC Server connection "Error - can't establish connection to DAW Server"

    Hi there,
    I'm experiencing trouble with the Oracle Data Warehouse Administration Console (DAC) server connection hanging in my Oracle BI Apps 7.9.6 install.
    Architecture*
    Applications Server - Machine A (Oracle Connection Services 10g R2 + Informatica 8.6.0 & HotFix 4.0 + DAC 10.1.3.4.1 services) = Linux RHEL 64-bit
    Database Server - Machine B (Oracle BI Apps Data Warehouse OBAW + DAC Repository + Informatica Repository) = Linux RHEL 64-bit
    Client - Machine C (BI Apps 7.9.6 + Informatica 8.6.0 & HotFix 4.0 client + DAC 10.1.3.4.1 client) = Windows x86 32-bit)
    Issue*
    After successfully following the Oracle Business Intelligence Applications Installation Guide for Informatica PowerCenter Users Version 7.9.6 (E14217-01) documentation I get to section 4.13 Configuring the DAC Server and I cannot create a successful connection to the DAC Server from the Data Warehouse Administration Console on my client machine.
    I can confirm that I have started the DAC services on the Linux server with the . ./startserver.sh command. The icon on the Data Warehouse Administration Console turns Orange (Idle), but when I double click the icon a message box appears with the title "Server Log" but seems to hang.
    If I stop the DAC services on the Linux server with the . ./stopserver.sh command the Server Log message box closes and a new message box appears stating:
    *"Error: can't establish connection to DAW Server!"*
    I have tried using the IP address and the actual server name as defined in the Hosts file as the DAC Server Host in the DAC System Properties but I receive the same error message.
    I can also confirm that I ran the serverSetupPrompt.sh shell script successto configure the connection between the DAC Server and the DAC Repository.
    Any suggestions or help greatly appreciated.
    Kind Regards,
    Gary.

    Hi Gary,
    If you have the Orange icon then your client is connected to the DAC server. (If it's red then it's not, and if it's green it's connected and an execution plan is running).
    If you have never run any DAC jobs (and if you're just doing the installation then you won't have I guess) then your log will be blank and you'll just get a blank log window.
    Have you got any evidence that your DAC server isn't running other than the Log won't download properly?
    Obviously if you stop the DAC server then you're going to get an error that the client can't connect to the server :-D
    If I were you I'd continue with the installation guide, as it sounds like things are working as they should.
    BTW don't forget to mark this and other responses to your posts as helpful/correct as appropriate :)

  • Why can't I connect to Exchange Server 2003? I'm using OS Lion. My iphone connects, what am I doing wrong?

    Why can't I connect to Exchange Server 2003? I'm using OS Lion. My iphone connects, what am I doing wrong?

    the iPhone uses active sync. Desktop clients do not. Desktop clients use another exchange protocol (which i can't remember as i'm not a microsofty).
    Just because you can access via active sync doesn't mean you can access it by other methods, and vice versa.

  • Can no longer connect to remote server via VPN

    I recently installed OS 10.5.8, and have found that I can no longer connect to my server at work. The VPN itself (via PPTP) works fine, it's just that when I try to connect to the remote server (via Connect to Server) I get a dialogue saying 'A volume failed to mount.' A further dialogue says 'Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred. (Error code -6602)'
    Has anyone found a way around this, please? I'm disabled and I need to be able to work from home – without the connection I'm stuffed! Obviously I've tried rebooting the machine etc, but nothing seems to help.
    Thank you for any assistance you can give.
    Kitty.

    For some random reason this connection has begun working again – please ignore the question!

  • Client Upgraded from Tiger to Leopard Can No Longer Connect to Tiger Server

    I just finished upgrading a G5 2GHz DP Powermac from Tiger to Leopard. This was an Archive and Install upgrade with importing the old settings. After verifying the account migration, including .Mac connectivity, and fixing all 3rd party software compatibilities/upgrades, I tried to connect to our Tiger 4.11 server by clicking on the server's Icon in the Shared section of the Finder Sidebar. The finder then switches to browse the the server for shares: "Connecting..." is displayed under the tool bar, with a "Share Screen..." and "Connect As..." buttons to the right.
    At this point the "Connecting..." remains displayed with the spinning circle in the bottom right of the Finder window.... spinning. This situation continues for several minutes until is seems the system gives up.
    If I click on the Path button on the Tool Bar, and go up to the Shared level, ALL the Shares on the Network are displayed, including all the Tiger Client machine shares. I can click on the triangle beside the Tiger Client's icon, and all the drives and home directories on the Mac are listed. All the client shares can be accessed without any issues. NOTE: There are no other Leopard clients on the LAN.
    Prior to the Leopard upgrade, this client could connect to the Tiger server as well. All the other clients on the LAN can access the Tiger server also.
    On the Leopard client I have tried clicking and the "Connect As..." button and using the menu "Connect to Server" and specifying the server's IP, and I get the same "Connecting..." message with a "non-connecting" result.
    I can only assume that somehow the Account Name and password are not being passed correctly. But, using "Connect As..." should resolve that. However, "Connect As..." does not give me a user/password window!
    If I check the AFP Access log on the Server, the only messages displayed are "Mounted Volume..." No messages in the error log, and no messages in the "Connections" section.
    Can anyone help me figure out why the Leopard client can not connect to the Tiger Server?
    My apologies if the description of my problem is a bit disjointed. I have been thrown into server admin and am learning "Trial by Fire".
    Any help or suggestions on how to resolve this issue will be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks
    Gary
    Message was edited by: Gary Sumlak

    OK. A quick update.
    After waiting for about 10 minutes for the rotating circle in the bottom right corner to stop, I was able to click on the "Connect As..." button. It took another 10 minutes, but the Connect As window eventual popped up. I entered the Userid and Password (saving to Keychain) and was able to see all the sharepoints on the the server. I browsed all the connected drives and folders without issue.
    I then disconnected from the server. Reviewing the AFP logs on the server shows messages for the connection Login and Logout.
    I then tried to reconnect to the server, and again another 10 minutes wait, although this time the Leopard client eventually connected automatically with the proper User, as per the AFP logs confirms.
    Although, the client can now connect to the server, for it to take 10 minutes will be unacceptable to management, not to mention the end user. Tiger clients can connect in a couple seconds!
    Is there a way to reduce the Leopard login time to, say, a couple seconds, like it does with the Tiger clients?
    Again, any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • RMI How can a Client reconnect to a server after connection(any)-error

    I have the following problem:
    My RMI-Server runs for ever. In a batch-queue I have a procedure which looks periodly wether rmiregistry
    and RMI-Server exists. On error both processes are killed and restarted.
    My client as a simple example is displaying the server time. If any communication-problem with the
    server exists, I need an automatic reconnect to the server. I accept that into the time distanz of the
    error the display is frozen. Its unacceptable to restart the client !!.
    The following example demonstates my test-example:
    Server:
    1. Start
    2. waits for connecting (factory)
    3. answer time-requests
    Client:
    1. Start
    2. create a time class initially 1.jan.1970 00:00:00
    3. Start a timer displaying the time class every second
    4. start a timer connecting/reconnecting to the server and ask the servers actual time every second
    PS. Is the server to stubil programmed, so that a hang can exists?
    It would be nice, if anybody could answer me !!
    The following sources work correctly without solving the problem of the reconnect:

    Hello willy51,
    Thank you for answering.
    I think, your comment of the design is true - its a problem when starting up in a new enviroment and
    you have nobody who shows you the right direction at the beginning. Talking personally together only
    10 minutes is better than writing a noval.
    I thing the following model of a client works better:
    concept:
    - visualize a personal time class continously evgery second
    - if there is a connection to a server set the time-class with the server time
    - if you loss connection, try to reconnect
    question:
    in which situation hangs connectToServer() ?
    (whithout the simple errors : no rmiregistry, no rmi-server)
    public class EchoClient
    private String hostname;
    public static void main(String args[]) throws Exception

  • 11g client connection to XE fails

    Hi,
    I have installed the 11g client beta and Oracle XE on the same system running Vista Ultimate.
    The 11g client can connect to Oracle 9i running on remote systems.
    The XE sqlplus can connect to the local XE instance (and remote Oracle instance).
    When I try to connect my application to the XE instance I get an exception:
    Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-12532: TNS:invalid argument
    In sqlnet.log I get:
    Fatal NI connect error 12532, connecting to:

    When I change HOST and SERVICE_NAME it works perfectly well to connect to a remote Oracle instance.
    Disabling the local firewall does not help.
    In the PATH, the 11g client path comes before the XE path. (No ORACLE_HOME set)
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Strange. I have 10g XE with the 11g ODAC beta, but I can connect using localhost as my TNS host name. Another solution may be using the IP address for localhost: 127.0.0.1
    One thing to keep in mind is that SQLPlus comes with 10gXE, not 11g ODAC beta. So, the version of SQLPlus you are using is really from the 10g Home.
    Ming Man,
    It sounds like you need to copy over a tnsnames.ora file to your new ODP.NET 11g Home or some other general Oracle connectivity configuration not set.

  • How to make the client connect to the server at the command prompt?

    I found this code on IBM's website, it was a training session on servers and clients using java.
    The code compiles fine and the server seems to start up properly when I use java Server 5000. I think whats happening is the server is running and listening for a connection on port 5000.
    When I try to run the client I get the following error.
    Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: main
    I see a start() method but no main. As far as I know, applications should all have main, it seems as if the person who wrote this kinda confused applets with application. Not that I would really know what happened.
    If you have time, could you tell me if there's an easy fix for this? I would love to have this client/server working if it isn't too much trouble. As I have looked all over the net for a free client/server applet that will actually let me see the java code and none of the free ones do allow getting to their source.
    Most of them allow you to customize them somewhat but also have built in advertising that can't be removed.
    This is the closest I have come to finding one that lets me look under the hood. But alas it doesn't work out of the box and I don't know what to do to fix it.

    I've installed Oracle XE 10 on Windows XP. When I browse to the database homepage, I get this in listener.log:

    I don't think it is shortage of resources (just rebooted). I put "DIRECT_HANDOFF_TTC_LISTENER=OFF" in listener.ora .. no luck. I removed the listener.ora file altogether ... ditto.
    What else could cause this?

    I don't think tomcat supports the ejb-ref portion of web.xml. If you're using ejbs your best bet is to use a web container within a J2EE implementation.
