Can forms 11g work with oracle 9i database?

Hi all,
Can anyone say if we can install forms 11g over WLS, using oracle 11g database for repository only, and activate/connect our forms to oracle 9i database?
is this how it's done?
our production database is 9.2.0.4 on sun solaris.
Please advise,
thanks,
Amit

It will work. Its just a Net 80 connection from WLS to the Oracle 9 database.

For database access from Java, you will use JDBC.
For the specifics of the oracle spatial database, you'll have to check the documentation/forum of Oracle.

Forms 6i: working with Microsot access database

I have developed a form that works with a Microsoft Access database instead of an Oracle database (I use ODBC). The form has a block based in a table named dias and this block has a column named dia based in the column dia.
When I try to compile this program unit:
PROCEDURE pru IS
BEGIN
select dia from dias;
END;
appears the following error: error 201, el identificador dia debe declararse (you have got to declare dia)
And if I try to compile this:
PROCEDURE pru IS
BEGIN
select dias.dia from dias;
END;
appears the following error: error 414,no hay ninguna columna dia en la tabla (there is not any column named dia in the table)
The :system.last_query variable is "select dia from dias" when I do a query.
Please, I need your help urgently.
Thanks,
Sara

Try this:
Properties props = new Properties();
props.put ("user", user);
props.put ("password", password);
props.put ("charSet", "UTF8");
c = DriverManager.getConnection (url, props);

Unable to connect Forms and Report with Oracle 9i database

but still facing the same error ,one more thing that i need to mention, I have 3 Oracle home.details are:
for Oracle database 9i
for report builder 6i
for Developer 10G
Kindly advise.Yes, you definately needed to mention that. That suggests you also have 3 $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directories, each with its own tnsnames.ora file. So you need to make sure you are hitting the correct one. I'd pick one to be the controlling one and set the TNS_ADMIN enviornment variable to point to it.

To make BI Beans work with Oracle 9i Database for Windows...

I have tried the following combination
Oracle Database 9.0.1.2 + Patch 3(Patchset:2227410)
Jdevelper9i RC
BI Beans RC
But, when I tried to create a new calculation or new presentation, I got "Connection information is incomplete, Service Name is not specified." error. So, I added " <oracle.dss.addins.wizard.connection.serviceName>OLAPServer</oracle.dss.addins.wizard.connection.serviceName>" in IDEConnections.xml. After this, it ended up with the "BIB-16601" error again:(
Please let me know whether I have to wait for another patch or not. Because, if the cause of this error is my configuration and all the Oracle Products are fine, I have to check my configuration again to make it work. But, if I simply have to wait for a new patch, I can do something else till then:)
Thank you.
Seiji
P.S. If someone could make BI Beans work with Jdeveloper9irc and Oracle OLAP Services on Windows, PLEASE let me know.

I found an answer for my question in the JDeveloper 9i forum ( The title is "OLAP Patch"). I will wait for the new patch.

Can 9i client work with 8i & 7 database?

Not sure if this is the correct forum, but here's my question.
I have a 8i database which I access using a ODP.NET (VB.NET program). I also need access to an Oracle 7 database from the same application.
1) will 9i client work with 7 database?
2) if not, if I install 8i & 9i Client, can I programmatically pick which one I use (not using the oracle home selection program)?
I could create materialized view of the oracle 7 tables on the 8i database, but seems like alot of duplicated storage. If I can't get this to work I would have to resort to the Microsoft ODP for Oracle since I can use 8i client with it.
Thanks!
Bob

Wouldn't changing the system PATH variable in code alter it for every web application running? If I have multiple applications running changing the PATH to suite the current call could inadvertently affect another application. The only other solution is to run MS data provider or ODP.NET/9i on one Web server, and 8i on another.

Oracle 11g ODAC with Oracle 10g Database

Hi,
I am trying to work with SDO_GEOMETRY from .Net.
When selecting * to a DataSet exception is thrown - Unknown column type.
So, i saw that Oracle Data Provider for .NET 2.0 11.1.0.6.20 supports User Defined Types. My question is this:
If i will install only ODP 11.1.0.6.20, will my system still work with everything else from 10g version?
(It's very hard to convince bosses to transfer all DB to 11g just because of UDT, so it's not an option).
Thanks in advance,
Max

I also just discovered this thread:
Which version of ODT should I use?
That does it for me.

Oracle forms 10g 32bit with Oracle 10g database on windows itanium for x64

Hi.....
Currently we are planning to have this configuration
1. Oracle10g RAC on HP rx6600 with windows itanium for x64 architecture
2. Oracle Application Server (32-bit) on windows 2003 (forms & reports services)
3. Application migrated from 6i to 10g
I have to things to ask about?
1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with _(32-bit)_ 10g forms to a x64_ platform without problems ?
2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i +(32-bit)+ to 10g RAC on x64_ platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?

1.Will it be ok to connect from an application compiled with (32-bit) 10g forms to a x64 platform without problems ?I did this also. A 32bit Oracle Form(10gR2) on Linux and a 64 bit (10gR2) database. And this works without a problem. Since you didn't mentioned your versions I would suggest you look for your combination if it is certified combination.
2. Can we connect forms and reports of developer 6i (32-bit) to 10g RAC on x64 platform if the character set is not UTF8 ?I don't know if the combination is certified. But regarding your character set, you have a character set setting (NLS_LANG, DEVELOPER_LANG, etc.. ) for your developer 6i, your database has it's own character set. Depending on those setting a conversion of the character set will take place between your developer 6i and the database, when you get and put data to the database. But like I said I don't know if developer 6i and 10g is still a supported combination.

Oracle 11g XE not working with oracle BI publisher 10g after enabling ACL

Hello,
I previously work with oracle 10gXE and Oracle BI publisher 10g and it work fine. now i install oracle 11g XE and try to configure it with oracle Bi Publlisher, it show this error
"ORA-29273: HTTP request failed ORA-06512: at "SYS.UTL_HTTP", line 1324 ORA-12570: TNS:packet reader failure" after runing the ACL package to neable network service.
on the database.
Please can any body tell be why this is not working. Tanx.

You'll need to add the apex engine owner to the ACL (Access Control List). Depending on your version of apex the user name varies. i.e. 4.0 is APEX_040000
See Joel's blog for info about the ACL and APEX.

Oracle 6i forms issue with Oracle 9i Database

Hi Friends,
I am having Oracle Forms Developer installed with patchset18.The Version is 6.0.8.27.0
When i connect the forms builder to 9i Database (9.2.0.1) the form builder is getting crashed but i am able to connect the forms builder to e-business suite database(9.2.0.6)
I tried installing 9i Database(9.2.0.1) on windows 2003 server,windows xp,windows 2000.
When i connect my forms builder to any of these databases the forms builder is crashing with don't send message error on (ifbld60.exe).
Is there any compatibility issue between forms builder(6i) and oracle 9i(9.2.0.1).Please suggest me.
Regards,
Arun .N

Forms 6i connects to Oracle 9 databases just fine, even though it is no longer certified by Oracle.
First of all, can you connect to the database with SQL Plus? Make sure that works first.
The other thing that comes to mind is the AL32UTF8 character set. Forms 6i and other older Oracle software cannot connect to databases using it. But I have only seen that problem with Oracle 10g databases, so I am not sure about the Oracle 9 db.
Here is a thread discussing the problem: Re: connecting form 6i to oracle database 10G express edition

We cannot help if you don't give us the error number that you get.
Also something that you might want to do is to search this error number on OTN.
