Can Mapinfo link to Oracle backend or vice versa?

I am currently using MapInfo Professional Version 4.1 to print maps which is called by Oracle Forms 4.5, but the maps will not be printed if I do not start up MapInfo in Windows before starting this print job. Is there a way/possible for Oracle to run MapInfo from backend instead of starting MapInfo application in Windows?
Many Thanks!
Ann

An Oracle database can call external functions, which could start an application on the server. I suspect, however, that you want to start the application on the client.
Forms may have this sort of facility-- I'd ask this question over on the Forms forum.

How to access MYSQL from Oracle 10g and vice versa

I will like to know how do I create a database link between Oracle 10g and MYSQL database on windows. I have been saddled with responsibility of ensuring the communications between the 2 databases and I have searched everywhere on google, I could not find anywhere where this is explain explicitly and made work.
THank you

In general Oracle offers 2 different products to connect from an Oracle database to a MS SQL Server. The first product is for free and it is called
As DG4ODBC is a generic connectivity based on ODBC it allows you to connect to many foreign databases as long as you have a suitable ODBC driver.It for example allows you to read from text files but also connect to foreign databases like MS SQL Server or IBM DB2. Due to this wide variety of foreign data sources tha capabilities of DG4ODBC are very limited. It only supports a few Oracle functions that it can directly map to foreign database equivalents. All other functions will be post processed. Post processing means that ALL records from the foreign table(s) will be fetched into the Oracle database and the result is then processed locally - so depending on the amount of data stored in the foreign database it might take a while.
To be complete here some notes to follow up:
This Oracle support note describes possible options you have to connect to a foreign database:
Document 233876.1 Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases - For example - DB2, SQL*Server, Sybase, Informix, Teradata, MySQL
So you see, to connect from Oracle to MySQL you need to use the Database gateway for ODBC release 11.2 (HSODBC which was shipped with 10g was desupported in march 2008).
The Database Gateway for ODBC 11.2 (=DG4ODBC) license is included in the Oracle database license and it allows you to connect with a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver to a foreign database.
For your MySQL connection you only need to download and configure the MySQL ODBC driver from the MySQL web site. Once you can connect with the ODBC driver you could then download and configure DG4ODBC.
As you didn't post on which platform your Oracle database is installed, here 2 notes for common platforms:
How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle (Doc ID 561033.1)
How to Configure DG4ODBC (Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC) on 64bit Windows Operating Systems to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 1266572.1)

my daughter and i logged onto same icloud and now i can see her messages and vice versa.. how can i fix this?

This isn't being caused by your iCloud account. It's caused by using use the same Apple ID for iMessage. To fix this you have two choices:
On one of the phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID (so both phones are using a different ID for iMessage). Note: you can still share the same ID for purchasing in Settings>iTunes & App Stores; or
On both phones go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive and uncheck the email address(es) shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at". Also uncheck anyone else's phone number, if present.

I have seen people using Rosetta in almost all projects in previous years, frequently in couple of projects. I was not aware that Rosetta is an internal thing, anyways if that is the case y oracle is shipping rosetta jar file to customers?

Can a PL/SQL code of timesten be called in oracle or vice versa

Hi
In IMDB cache setup with AWT cache group , the pl/sql code or procedure that is written in oracleDB can it be called in TimesTen and vice versa
example: In a stored procedure the DML's that are performed will be updating the cache tables and log table in oracleDB.
Will there be any performance impact.
Regards
Siva Kumar

A PL/SQL procedure can exist in Oracle DB, in TimesTen, or in both. You control that by where you create the procedure. Procedures that exist in Oracle can really only be called in Oracle and can only access data in Oracle. Procedures that exist in TimesTen can only be called in TimesTen and can only access data in TimesTen. There is a limited capability, using the TimesTen PassThrough capability to call PL/SQL procedures located in Oracle, from Timesten, and for Timesten PL/SQL procedures to access data in Oracle. Using PassThrough does have some overhead.

Odbc connection test success but can't link the database to oracle with 1013 call failed error.

i am using my MS Access 2013 to connect with my oracle database. I created the odbc link and successfully have connection test pass. However i can;t link the database with my MS access. When i am using different software (mapinfo), i am able to connect to oracle database. The error is"1013: user requested cancel of current operation"

In MS access, i open the external data and select odbc. Select my odbc link created previously, enter the password and after a while the error message pop up.
But if i am using another tools, such as SQL Developer or Mapinfo, i will able to connect to oracle database using the same odbc link.

I have reached full memory capacity on my 500GB Time Capsule. I am considering purchasing a 2TB Time Capsule. Do I need to resave all existing data on the new hard drive or can I start afresh? Or can I link both time capsules to operate independantly?

Hi,
I have reached full memory capacity on my 500GB Time Capsule. I am considering purchasing a 2TB Time Capsule.
a) Do I need to resave all existing data on the new hard drive or can I start afresh?
b) Or can I link both time capsules to operate independantly?
Thanks,
Paul

You may not need to buy a new Time Capsule.
You can connect a USB drive to the Time Capsule, and use it in addition to the TC's internal HD. You may need a powered USB hub as well.
Exactly what is on your TC? If it's only Time Machine backups, you may not need to do anything -- Time Machine will delete the oldest backup(s) automatically when it needs room for new ones. But if you have more than about 250 GB on your internal HD, that 500 GB may not be large enough to keep backups long enough.
If you have other data on the TC's internal HD, besides your backups, you could back up to the external HD and use the internal for the other data, or vice-versa. But TM backups cannot "span" two drives, and you shouldn't mix backups and other data on the TC's internal HD.

Error during addition of external link to oracle BPM workspace

Hi All,
I just want to add an external link to oracle BPM workspace and I've followed this tutorial :
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E28280_01/user.1111/e15175/bpmug_ext_apps.htm
but I am neither able to view the required, nor getting any error.
During deployment time I'm only getting this message :
Issues were encountered while parsing this deployment to determine module type. Assuming this is a library deployment.
I'm using the virtual m/c version : oel5u5-64bit-soabpm-11gr1-ps4-fp-Workshop-Exp_2
Please help me to resolve the issue.
Thanks in advance.

What I meant to say is check the logs at the time you are getting the error since sometimes the logs can be huge in size

Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken?

Why are most of the links on Oracle's site that relate to Java broken? For example, try searching for SocketChannel and then clicking on any of the returned links, in particular click on www.oracle.com/technetwork/servers-storage/ts-4222-159193.pdf.
This is the second time I have tried to search for Java information and both times found broken links.
Does anyone know where I can find more information on using a SocketChannel?

They have a huge investment in it and would need to replace or discontinue a number of products that they paid quite a bit of money for.
On the other hand in might just be that they don't much about providing support that doesn't lead to revenue. Thus support contracts have a support channel while public links get little support.

Bonjour - Mac A can see Mac B but not vice versa

Hi
Very odd behaviour with Bonjour. Up until yesterday, my macbook pro (call it A) would see my mac pro (B) - it would appear automatically in A's sidebar, I could listen to B's iTunes library on A and so on. No problem and there hasn't been for a couple of years. B could not see A - but I didn't really need it to and this wasn't an issue.
Suddenly, this morning, the situation is completely reversed. A can no longer see B at all, but B can see A.
I can connect both ways by using 'Connect', I can ping both ways, but I can't get A to discover B using Bonjour.
The only think I've done that I can think can have caused the changes is to use Omnifocus sync (with B holding the sync server) - it worked fine all day, but overnight Bonjour seems to have reversed itself as described above.
Bonjour Browser shows me that B can see A, but A can't see B. I have identical settings on both machines for sharing, network, firewall (all everything).
Bizarrely, for one two minute period a couple of hours ago, the situation reversed itself (A could see B but not vice versa), but then immediately went back to B can see A, but not vice versa.
Both computers are running the same version of Leopard (10.5.7). I've reinstalled the OS on B, just to see, but this hasn't improved matters.
I can find nothing on google or this discussions forum to explain this bizarre behaviour - most support threads seem to peter out without being resolved. Has anyone any idea what's going on please? I'm quite happy getting stuck into the command line, if that's needed.
Many thanks
David

The Macbook Pro is connected wirelessly to the router, the Mac Pro connects to the same router by ethernet.
As far as I'm aware, I'd made no changes to any of the setups (computers or router) before the problem occurred: bonjour worked fine, but in one direction only (the MBP could see the Mac Pro, but not vice versa). Now, the Mac Pro can see the MBP, but not vice versa - and this is a problem because my printer and itunes server both sit on the Mac Pro.
I've set all the firewall and security settings I could find to transparent access - and (except for the obvious difference between the wired and wireless links), the setups are identical on both computers.
By the way, I can connect to the Mac Pro easily enough and transfer files, I just can't see it via bonjour or use Screen Sharing (again the settings haven't changed since they were working!)
Many thanks

Use of LEFT, MID functions in MS Access expression evaluating a SQL pass-thru on an Oracle Backend

As the title above suggests this is a somewhat complex problem.
I have the following expression on a field in a MS Access Make Table query.
Left([SYN4_View Invalid Last Candidates]![LastName],3). The table it is referring to: SYN4_View Invalid Last Candidates is a SQL Pass-thru query on an Oracle backend. So, when the expression attempts to evaluate in MS Access 2003 I get the following error msg:
Undefined function 'left' in expression.
I am assuming this is because LEFT function can't evaluate the output of the SQL P-T. I can't use SUBSTR as Access doesn't recognize it.
I would appreciate suggestions
