Combination: oracle 9i server with Oracle 10g client??

Hello, we are running R/3 4.6C on Windows cluster system (node1-DB instance and node2-Central instance) and on Oracle 9i server. We also have several dialog instances running Oracle client 9i. Hardware and software (sap, oracle, windows) - everything is 32bit.
We are replacing those several old application servers (=dialog instances) with new X86_64 hardware and Windows 64 bit + Oracle client 64 bit. The question is: is it possible (and also supported) to install Oracle client 10g 64bit on new application servers? We are not planning to upgrade DB server to Oracle 10g yet!! So, can we run DB server on oracle 9i 32bit and oracle client 10g 64bit on applicaton servers??
Thank you very much!
Best regards, Igor

Hello,
To Andreas:
A little puntualization:
the oracle client software version depends on the sap version and not on the oracle server version...as far as i remember, oracle client 10 is either supported for sap kernel 7.00 or the brtools 7.00, which means that you cannot use oracle client 10 with sap kernel 46D_EXT
This is correct for <i>UNIX</i> systems, not for windows.
On windows the client to be used is the same version as the RDBMS.
I think this also answers Igor question.
If you RDBMS software is 9i then you have to use the client 9i

  • Oracle Mobile Server with SQLLite/Berkeley Db and dbsql

    Hi all,
    i am not sure if i am correct here but hopefully i am.
    In the past we have had Oracle Mobile Server with Oracle Lite.
    We decided to switch to new mobile Server because oracle webtogo is not longer supported and incompatible with windows 7. My administrator did migration of mobile server but migration utility reported that the available applications are incompatible.
    So I decided to create a completely New Publication with a Java application. The new Publication contains only one publication Item. For the first tests I simply wanted to spool out the data contained in my local database.
    In bin directory of sqlite folder i can find a utility named "dbsql". I understood it in this way that I can attach to an existing database file and take a look into that database.
    If i call dbsql.exe BerkeleyTest all seems to be ok. But if i try to select some data from that file i only get the errormessage that databse is in wrong format or encrypted. What am i doing wrong there?
    Am I right that the sql interface (I need that interface because I dont want to rewrite dataaccesslayer of my app) is only available in sqlite but not on "BerkeleyDb"?
    Is anyone here to help me a little bit with my problem here?
    Regards!
    Martin

    I do not know much about Oracle Mobile Server with Oracle Lite, does it use SQLite or BDB?  I do know that databases created by SQLite cannot be read by Berkeley DB SQL (of which dbsql.exe is part of), and databases created by Berkeley DB SQL cannot be read by SQLite.  Also, databases created by Berkeley DB outside of the SQL API cannot be read by the BDB SQL API.  You can open BDB SQL databases with BDB outside of the SQL API, but I would not recommend that outside of a few BDB utilities described in the documentation.  So if your BerkeleyTest database was created by SQLite or BDB outside of the SQL API, then it makes sense that dbsql.exe is returning an error when trying to read it.
    Calling dbsql.exe BerkeleyTest does not open the database, that happens when the first operation is performed on it, which is why you did not get an error until you tried to select something.

  • Oracle 11g compatibility with oracle 10g and 9i?

    Hi All
    I have some queries on 11g compatibility.
    Is oracle 11g client compatible with oracle 10g client which is already installed on desktop?
    If yes any changes to be done and where?
    Is oracle 11g compatible with oracle 10g/9i on the same server where 10g/9i are installed?
    Regards

    Thanks Justin Thats right ...
    Problem elaboration is as follows
    We currently have an application which requires oracle 10g(10.2.0.3) client to connect to database from user desktops. As
    part of new application development the oracle 11g clients need to be installed on all the user deskotps.
    The complete application software along with oracle client 11g has to be roled out on these desktop as part of
    implementaion of new application besides the existing application(The application software is packaged along with oracle
    10g client).
    We would like to understand if there is any software provided by oracle using which we can switch between different oracle
    versions while accessing the respective applications simultaneously. Also are there any known bugs/issues in running
    oracle 10g client and oracle 11g client together on the same user desktops with different oracle homes?

  • How to get standalone Oracle HTTP Server with mod_plsql?

    Hi,
    I do not know if it is just me but it seems to be a nightmare to get OHS with mod_plsql from the official OTN download site. I downoaded the companion CD for Windows - 3 disks, installed OHS - no mod_plsql. Then I tried to find any clue on OTN on how to download mod_plsql - none. Plenty of information on how to configure it and use it, but nothing on how to get it.
    PLSQL gateways is not an option for us because many of our clients do not allow direct communication between the database and the Internet.

    Any help appreciated,

    PS.
    I would not like to download the software from unofficial sites but rather get it straight from Oracle.

  • Does Oracle OLAP comes with Oracle Database 10g ?

    1.Does Oracle OLAP comes with Oracle Database 10g or do we need seperate software to have this ?.
    2.If I create a Cube with Analytic work space manager the cube is going to be stored in the Database ( meaning the in the table space where OLAP is Stored).
    3. What is the difference between Analtyic work space manager and discoverer For Olap.
    Help is higly appreciated ..
    Thanks, Prasad

    One thing to point out : The OLAP option is a costed database option, so while this is automatically installed and part of your database you do have to purchase additional licenses to use this feature. You will need to check with your Oracle account manager to see if you are actually licensed to use this feature.
    If you have existing 9i OLAP cubes these can be quickly and easily migrated to 10g OLAP and the documentation explains how to do this. However, there are many new features that are part of 10g OLAP that will improve the performance of your data model that will not be enabled as part of a migration process. Based on my experiences it would be quicker and easier (depending on the size of your existing 9i OLAP cubes) to consider rebuilding your data model using these new 10g features. You should be able to export all the dimensions to XML templates from 9i OLAP and import the templates into the 10g schema and reload your dimensions.
    For the cubes you will probably want to consider using partitioning, composites and compression to provide maximum flexibility and performance for your new data model. There is more information on these features within the OLAP documentation and in the many whitepapers and presentations on the OLAP home page on OTN.
    For moving data from SQL Server to 10g OLAP much depends on the nature of the data transfer. If it is a one-off bulk data load then you could consider using the normal MS command line tools to dump the data out and transfer it to Oracle. Alternatively, you could consider using Oracle Data Integrator to manage the extraction of the SQL Server data and the data load process into Oracle 10g relational tables. If you decide to use Data Integrator this will require additional licenses.
    If you can extract the data from SQL Server to flat files you can use Oracle Warehouse Builder (basic ETL is free as part of the 10g database license) to load that flat file data via external tables. Warehouse Builder can also be used to define your OLAP data model (think of Warehouse Builder as a more powerful version of Analytic Workspace Manager) and provides tools to load the data directly into your OLAP dimensions and cubes. You can get more information on managing OLAP data models with Warehouse Builder the Warehouse Builder home page on OTN.
    There are no facilities to modify Discoverer Viewer to add customisations. You can add company logos, modify certain colors and/or hide certain features but it is not possible to add additional features. You may want to consider using BI Beans to provide this type of environment. BI Beans is the development framework used to create Discoverer Viewer. You can create customised JSP pages that look identical to Discoverer Viewer pages with the added benefit of providing your own specific features. You can get more information on the BI Beans home page on OTN.

  • Connection between  oracle 9i server and oracle 9i client

    hi there,
    i have installed both oracle 9i server and oracle 9i client in my system.how can i connect these two to have connection between these server and client?
    Because i was using only 9i server for creating database and for other purposes.i have not used 9i client yet.
    Please write me the answer.
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi Balu,
    If you have the Oracle 9i Client, you can just edit your TNSNAMES.ora file of your client to have a TNS Entry for your new Database & try connecting it. You just need to try TNSPING & ensure that you can reach the Listener.
    Are you facing any specific problems ?

  • Can I use Oracle app server with mysql

    Can I use Oracle app server with mysql. I seem to have the following error when trying to create a datastore. I have mysql.jar in my classpath. Can any one tell me what's wrong.
    Error initializing data-source 'jdbc/topup': DriverManagerDataSource driver 'org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver' not found

    Yes you can forward requests from your own apache to the iAS. This can be done using mod_proxy. Some hints about how to do this are availlable on this forum.
    mod_oc4j is not a standard apache module, and therefore is not availlable when you download apache. There is no apparent reason to use mod_oc4j on a "regular" webserver (unless you want to build your own iAS). Also there might be some licenseing issues with using mod_oc4j module on a standard apache.
    You can encrypt data that is passed from a random Apache to you iAS.

  • Ibm Visual age 3.5 Persistence Name Server with Oracle 8.1.7

    Hello every one!
    Iam facing a problem with visualage 3.5 persistence name server with Oracle DB. I configured PNS with oracle driver (thin driver).
    I could start the pns server, Servlet Engine.
    I loaded my application with PNS and oracle thin driver is not executing any queries.
    Without PNS, directly interacting with Oracle DB thru JDBC also works fine.
    Has anyone tried to use PNS with Oracle successfully?
    Thanks

    hello there,
    check these things in u r mac before launching PNS..
    1: Is OracleDriver is there in the path i mean in the PNS path..
    2: Right click and check the properties...
    3: and also check the env properties and launch the PNS if PNS is launched then u can work on it...

  • Does ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G

    Hi,
    I am wondering if ORACLE functions work with Oracle Database 10G or is it mandatory to use OCI functions?

    I was able to run a simple query with ora_* functions using 10g on Windows.
