Cannot connect to Oracle with ASP

I'm having problems connecting to an Oracle database in ASP. I am using the following code:
Inc_ConnString = "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=my_db;" & _
"User Id=user_name;Password=password"
Set DBconn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
DBconn.Open Inc_ConnString
I am always getting the following error message:
ADODB.Connection (0x800A0E7A)
Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.
However, when I run the Visual Basic sample code, everything works fine.. with the same code. I have downloaded and installed the latests Oracle Provider for OLE DB, Oracle ODBC Drivers, Oracle Objects for OLE from www.oracle.com.. but I am still getting this error message..
Any pointers?

Give the IWAM_XXXX User full NTFS access rights to your %ORACLE_HOME%, ie. C:\oracle\ora92 and all subdirectories (this is documented in Metalink Doc-ID 258471.995).

Trying to simply connect to Oracle with VBscript/ASP - and I cannot.

This is rather embarrassing. I am pretty fluent with ASP and VBscript, and I have written many a web application connecting to Microsoft SQL Server. Now I have a need to connect to an Oracle database, and I'm beating my head against the wall.
1) Web server is Windows Server 2003 SP1
2) Using ASP (not ASP.NET) & VBscript
3) I have installed the Oracle drivers on the server - it is version 10g
4) The administrator of the Oracle database to which I want to connect has created a username and password for me to use from within my code
5) Here is the code I am trying to run:
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.Open "Provider=MSDAORA;Data Source=XXXXXXX;User Id=YYYYYYY;Password=ZZZZZZZ;"
That's it. 2 lines of code just trying to establish a connection. Using the user name and password provided to me by the administrator, and for Data Source I am using the IP address of the Oracle server (like I have done in the past when connecting to SQL Server). I receive the following error message when viewing this in a browser:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle error '80004005'
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
Evidently, the Data Source I am using is not correct, but I was provided no other information from the admin. This is the first time any of us have tried to connect to Oracle using ASP/VBScript, so the administrator isn't sure what I need to do ... any help would be so appreciated.

Hello,
I got mine to work by setting up an ODBC System DSN and connecting to it. I think this bypasses the Microsoft driver, which might be what's causing the problem.
Set Db = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Db.Open "DSN=TEST;User ID=userid;Password=password;"
Good luck, I've found it requires a lot of persistence...

VB6 source code cannot connect to Oracle database after compile to file.exe

Hi All,
I have a problem about VB6 connect with Oracle database. It can connect as normal when run on VB program. After compiled to file.exe and execute, it cannot connect to Oracle database. What's going on ? Please advise? Thank you.
Here is sample of my code connection.
Option Explicit
Private wsData As New ADODB.Connection
wsData.ConnectionString = _
"Provider=MSDAORA.1;User ID=lsp;Password=lsp2007;Data Source=prd01;Persist Security Info=False"
wsData.Open
End sub
Rgads,
Ats.

Hi,
I believe you're in the wrong forum, this forum is for Oracle Application Express.

Need advice, sql server with asp or oracle with asp

hi !
i have been given a task to improve the design of a sql server database with more than 1 million records, front end is asp (code has to be written also, keeping user interface same). I would like to use oracle with asp, is it practical or should i go for sql server. i need your advice.
thanks in advance
lavinder

Depends on your definition of "practical".
My guess is that most of the work will be porting your back-end code from SQL*Server to Oracle. The Migration Workbench can help here, but there are often things that you do in SQL*Server code that you really don't want to do in Oracle code (i.e. frequent commits).
There is a good chance that you'd be able to improve the scalability of the application faster by fixing the problems that exist in the SQL*Server implementation. I think Oracle is inherently a much more scalable platform than SQL*Server, however, so I'm not trying to dissuade you from moving. It really depends on the end state you need to achieve and the amount of time & effort you're willing to put forward.

After a system restart i cannot connect to SAP with SAPGUI.

After a system restart i cannot connect to SAP with SAPGUI.
See attached log "dev_disp" and "dev_w0"
At the end of this message you can see the comparison between the
defective system and another working system
I notice the absence of the "IGS400" process
Could you please help me ?
Best regards to everybody.

I am a new user of Ipod touch 5th gen 32 gig I cannot connect to internet with usb?

Hi bikernblondie,
When you say that you're trying to connect to the internet with USB, do you mean that you're trying to connect your iPod to the internet so that you can surf the internet with a browser on your iPod, or that you're trying to connect your iPod to your computer so that you can sync it with iTunes and bring over songs, movies, apps, etc.?
- O.C.

Cannot connect jdev2.0 with oracle 8i

I cannot connect my jdev2.0 with oracle 8i.
I am getting the following error.
"The network adapter couldn't make the connection"
I would be really thankful if someone can help me this problem.

I guess I should have also askced you which driver you are using to connect.. thin or OCI.
First thing you should do is select your project and choose Properties from the right-mouse menu. Make sure 'Oracle 8.1.5 JDBC' shows up in the Libraries list. If it doesn't, choose Add to add it.
If you are using the thin driver, try using the Named Host method of connecting (rather than existing TNS Names). This method does not depend on an external Oracle Home like the TNS method does.
If you do want to use the TNS method, choose Tools|IDE Options from the menu. On the Environment tab, you can explictly set which Oracle Home to have JDeveloper look for the TNS entry.
Also, for the thin driver, check the Oracle 8.1.5 JDBC User's Guide and reference. There is a section in Chapter 1 or 2 which provides sample code for testing a JDBC connection from the command line.
If you are using the OCI driver, and your database is on the same machine that you are running JDev from: make sure that the Oracle Home JDev is using is the one where your database is installed.
If you are using the OCI driver and the database is on a different machine, you need to install the Oracle Client software that matches the version of the JDBC drivers you are using (by default, 8.1.5 in JDev 2.0 and 3.0).

Cannot connect to Oracle 8i with IIOP from JDev3.1

Hi,
I have the problem of connect to Oracle 8i with IIOP from JDeveloper 3.1 when I build application with BC4J. I can connect to my Oracle 8i database with ODBC easily but failed with IIOP. Does anyone here has the same experience?
Any help will be appreciated. Thank you.
null

Hi Daniel:
I've solved the problem mentioned above. It requires two settings:
I) Enabling Multithreaded Server Support for IIOP Clients;
II) Listener's listening to port 2481
Of course you should have installed JServer into your Oracle 8i database.
In your init.ora file, you should have the following two lines:
mts_dispatchers = "(PROTOCOL=TCP)(PRE=oracle.aurora.server.SGiopServer)"
mts_dispatchers = "(protocol=TCP)"
To confirm this you may use SQLPLUS to list the parameters of the database setting:
mts_dispatchers string (PROTOCOL=TCP)(PRE=oracle.aurora.server.SGiopServer), (protocol=TCP)
mts_servers integer 1
And in TNSnames.ora file the setting should like this:
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = wangsvr)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = wangsvr)(PORT = 2481))
All these two settings ( init.ora and tnsnames.ora ) can be done with "Database Configuration Assistant" and "Net8 Assistant"
I solved my problem this way, your problem may not the same but anyway you may try it.

Excel-2007 cannot connect to Oracle ODBC data source, Control Panel can.

<p>
I cannot make an ODBC connection from Exce-2007 to Oracle work. I am an expert Excel and VBA user (since 1994) and I have frequently used Excel to access ODBC databases, including Oracle (I have done this with Excel-2003 both with worksheet queries and have written VBA ADO-connection routines). And even though in Excel-2007 a worksheet ODBC query is supposed to be easier to create than in previous version of Excel, my connection fails. Any suggestions and all help are welcome and much appreciated.
DETAILS
</p>
<p>
1) <strong>What is my system?</strong> I am using Excel-2007 on Windows Vista x64 and Oracle server v.11g on my computer (all this is on my computer, no network issues).
2)<strong> Why use Excel with Oracle at all?</strong> I use Excel-2007 to access Oracle rather than Access-2007 (or any other application like TOAD, etc.) because I do engineering calculations with the data stored in Oracle. These calculations are easier done in Excel (I suppose that one alternative to this could be to use some sql or Access to get the data from the database, then store it as plain vanilla CSV file, then open this file in Excel, then do the math (the math involves complex optimisation algorithms), then save the results as CSV, then use some sql or Access to put the data back into the database. Howwever this does not strike me as a quick or neat solution. And after all Excel has been designed to access ODBC databases, so why not use it?)
3) <strong>What do I do in Excel-2007 that won't work?</strong> I create an ODBC link to Oracle that does not work. In Excel-2007 this is straightforward:
</p>
<ul>
<li>define an ODBC connection (Data tab --> From other sources --> From data connection wizard);</li>
<li>define a query on the worksheet -- that's it, this is all!</li>
</ul>
<p>
I start with creating an ODBC connection:
a) I choose an ODBC data source type: <strong><em>ODBC DSN</em></strong>
b) Excel-2007 displays the list of the available ODBC data sources. I see in it <strong><em>my Oracle database name</em></strong> and I select it.
c) Excel-2007 displays the Data Link Properties:
- the "Provider" has a list of the OLE DB drivers with preselected "<strong><em>Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers</em></strong>". I keep this default selection.
- the "Connection" tab has a connection string "<strong><em>DSN=<my database name></em></strong>" which I keep, it also has fields for the <strong><em>user name</em></strong> and the <strong><em>password</em></strong>, which I fill with the correct credentials.
- Finally there is a button "Test Connection", which when I click produces the following error message:
<strong><font color="#ff0000">"Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider.</font></strong><strong><br />
</strong><strong><font color="#ff0000">Unespecified error"</font></strong><strong>
</strong>
4) <strong>Additional food for thought:</strong>
a) In the above walk-through the only data, which I type, are the user name and password, everything else is selected from lists offered by Excel-2007, hence any possibility of typos being the cause of the problem can safely be discarded.
b) I can test the ODBC driver in the Control Panel and it shows that it can connect to the Oracle database:
- in <strong><em>Control Panel --> Admin Tools --> Data Sources (ODBC)</em></strong> on the "User DSN" tab I can see the list of the available ODBC data sources (same list as in Excel-2007, point 3b above) with the name of my database in it;
- selecting the name of my database from the list of the sources and clicking "Configure" button opens a tab with <strong><em>Data Source Name</em></strong> (same as in Excel-2007), TNS Service Name and User ID. I enter <strong><em><user name>/<password></em></strong> and click "Test Connection" button. A message "<strong><em>Connection successful</em></strong>" appears (just for a test I enter <u>incorrect user credentials</u> and "<strong><em>Unable to connect</em></strong>" message appears)
BOTTOM LINE
</p>
<p>
The procedure for using an ODBC connection from Excel is very simple, in the past I have created and used such connections numerous times with Excel-2003 and earlier on Win-XP and earlier. But now on Excel-2007 and Vista-x64 I cannot make it work.
Also, testing an ODBC connection driver is really easy and simple to be done in the Control Panel. There testing the same ODBC connection, which fails in Excel-2007, results in success.
I am frustrated by the simplicity of the problem and yet the persistant error. I have lost now two full days in failed attempts to make the simple procedure work and in searching the internet for answers.
All help is highly appreciated <img class="emoticon" src="images/emoticons/happy.gif" border="0" alt="" width="16" height="16" />,

Did you find the solution to your problem?
If not, I think I may know.
Excel 2007 is a 32-bit application.
When installing 32-bit applications in a 64-bit environment, the "default" location is:
C:\Program files (x86)\...
Excel then launches from this location.
However, when it connects to Oracle and passes the name of the calling program, Oracle attempts to "interpret" the value of (x86) as if
the value within the parenthesis are being passed as a reference. Of course, iOracle doesn't find anything, so the result is (),
and then it cannot return the connection info back to the calling application.
I corrected it by installing Excel in C:\Program Files\, and once launched from that location, it works the same as on the 32-bit machines.
However, at my location, they are FORCING Excel to be installed in the(x86) location.
What I'm trying to discover now is:
Is it possible to flag Oracle to NOT process the embedded variables?
Or, is it possible to assign a variable in Oracle such that x86 = "(x86)", so that the end result is viable?
Have you had any luck with your installation?
thanks,
Paul
