Oracle 9i Lite SYNC Error in PALM

Hi,
I have Installed Oracle 8.1.6 Server in a Machine & Oracle 9i Lite 5.0 in a Machine, when i try ro connect & SYNC with my PALM Device OS 3.5 i get a [CNS-2000] Server send Error - 9025:0
Message, check log in the PALM device using mSYNC.
I have installed the Patchset 5.0.0.4 and have done all the settings related to the configuration.
Kindly help as it is very urgent to establish the connection SYC between the PALM & the Oracle.
Thaks & Regards,

If this is happening on the upload of the data from the client, it is normally due to a mismatch between the DDL of the publication item and the corresponding in queue table (CFM$WTGPI_nnnnn).
Have you made changes on the server to the table/view definitions?
If so then have you re-published? If there is data in the in queue or error queue it will sometimes not refresh the mobileadmin tables with the changed columns/data types, although if you use API's i believe you may be ok. If there is no mismatch on the server, what about the format of the table on the client? it may be trying to upload some changes

Oracle 8i Lite: logging to sql plus - uid, password, host string - whats that

If i install "Oracle 8i Lite" (just locally, not networked). There are two important things : "Navigator", and "SQL Plus". If in navigator, I create a local database called "xxx" (tables under 'system' user). Then if i need to query - i go to SQL Plus. Fine, but how do we log in - what is the "host string" ?.
The login needs, Userid, Password, Host String. In some docs, it said the userid, password for 'system' account is 'system, manager' respectively. Anyways, now the host string , i had read the 'host string' will be like "@databasename", so I think for me, it will be "@xxx"
But the way, I'm understing, i cant log, and SQL Plus says something "TNS: could not resolve service name". Maybe i have to something with that tnsnames.ora file....?
Incase, you could give ANY information, kindly inform.
Thanks

Host string usually refers to the host string that is stored in your TNSNAMES.ORA file. You can open TNSNAMES.ORA with a text editor.
If you get "TNS: could not resolve service name", it's either you have not start the database or your configuration in TNSNAMES.ORA is wrong.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
hi,
iam getting the same error(the TNS thing)can you be a bit more explaining regarding how to solve the problem.

Pls Help. Any lead is appreciated

Hi
Your oracle database and forms are installed on different oracle home so when you configurate your sql net that time you are configurating only your oracle database. So for form you must be having different oracle home. you cand change thid from start/oracle inatallation products/home selecter. so change our home and run the form. and if still having problem than check for tnsnames.ora file you must be having two files and both must be having right configuration.
thanks

Oracle 8i Lite Start up

Hi everybody,
I've windows/2000 pro installed on my m/c. The client version of it.
I'm using this m/c to surf the net and do some MS Acesses development and VB development. Now, I'm trying to do something with Oracle 8i Lite. I've received oracle 8i Lite Version 4.0.0.2.0 for Micorosoft Windows NT from Oracle corp in CD.
I installed this software in my machine.
When I had Oracle 7 a year or long back, after the installation, I had start and stop icons to start the database and stop to shut down the database, but oracle 8i is not like that.
Now, I dont know how to start or configure the oracle db, and access the db using sql*plus so that I can create some stored procedures and call them from Sql*plus.
Could somebody throw some ideas to understand this Oracle 8i lite version.
Regards,
Suresh

You will have to be a bit more specific about the error messages you get. Did you start the database and listener?

Oracle 8i Lite install

I have a question..
I'm trying to find info on how to install and configure this. I have a copy of both that and of JDeveloper, and am trying to install it but once installed, I can't connect, likely due to configuration problems.
Is there anything preventing Oracle 8i Lite from running on XP? Can I run both it and JDeveloper on the box?
I get either a Listener error message or incorrect password message. I haven't seen anything (ever) where to set the user/pwd configuration, and didn't think that was done within the TNSNAMES.ORA file, but If I'm wrong please correct me.
I also can't find anything on the site regarding Oracle 8i Lite. Seems like they've taken every reference off.
Would I be better off downloading and installing that OracleXE 10 express version?
I'm basically a Java developer trying to develop some small apps at home or preliminary apps that I would later redo at work, where I work with Oracle 9i each day.
Please provide any suggestions if you can!
Thanks

Hi.
I don't have all the answers you're waiting for, but these metalink notes might be of any value:
Oracle Lite:Overview of the Differences between Oracle Server and Oracle Lite
Note:94484.1
Oracle Created Database Users: Password, Usage and Files References
Note:160861.1
10g asks you to provide password at database creation time.
I get either a Listener error message or incorrect
password message. I haven't seen anything (ever)
where to set the user/pwd configuration, and didn't
think that was done within the TNSNAMES.ORA file, but
If I'm wrong please correct me.
1. Does not listen for Sql*net connection: Oracle Lite is designed for a
single user so there is no listener nor Sql*net for client connection.
Olite only accepts local odbc connection.
I also can't find anything on the site regarding
Oracle 8i Lite. Seems like they've taken every
reference off.
Would I be better off downloading and installing that
OracleXE 10 express version?
IMHO, last two questions are good reasons to use recent DB releases.
where I work with Oracle 9i each day.
Another good reason.

Oracle 9i Lite/Sql Plus Installation Instructions?

I am having the same problem with install Oracle 9i Lite. Really I need to get SQL PLUS up and running. I am installing it in Windows 98 and would like to use it on a stand alone pc/home pc.
I ended up just installing sql plus without net8 and other mobile server components because I don't know what the port name and hostname is. I am just trying to get sql plus to work.
After just installing sql plus, I get the same login username/password/host string. I think you can log in as SYSDBA or SYSOPER but what is the password and host string. I am not running sql plus from a server/internet I would like it to be stand alone. I know the host string has something to do with what type connection is being used but I don't have any (other than aol dial up connection) so I would just like to run sql on a stand alone pc!!! HELP!!
Dionne

Did your SQL*Plus install include create a database to connect to? I think a quick thing to check would be:
Do you have a valid tnsnames.ora in $ORACLE_HOME\network\admin
(address = is on one line)
ie:
orcl =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = orcl.localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl.localhost)
Where orcl is the name of the database you want to connect
to and local host is your machine. (Check Network configuration). If you are on a network you will replace with orcl.mynet.com
I think for a standalone SQL install they might expect you are on a NetWork and have a database to connect to. Maybe
you should download the whole install for standalone use...
9i and 8.1.7 are available for download. (8.1.7 is a little smaller and doesn't require as much memory depending on your home system)
I'm not even sure what you are trying to do. Please post more details if this doesn't help.

Storing Foreign Characters in oracle 9i Lite Client Database.

Hi All,
My Database configuration Is
RDBMS VERSION 9.0.1.1.1
NLS_CHARACTERSET AL32UTF8
NLS_NCHAR_CHARACTERSET AL16UTF16
NLS_LANGUAGE AMERICAN
NLS_TERRITORY AMERICA
Operating System Windows 2000
My Oracle Lite configuration Is
Oracle9i Lite Release 5.0.2.0.8
Client Locations:
Africa,Europe,Asia,America
Currently all clients store data only in English in the client odb either through java and oracle forms applications.
We want to now store data for some specific tables, in the clients own language.Also we should be able to retrieve that data and see that data as it was entered.
For example :
The client in china after downloading the odb should be able to enter the data for that specific tables in the Chinese language.(They use windows 2000/XP English version).
1. What are the settings i need to do in the client environment?
like installing Chinese font or setting NLS_LANG parameter etc...
2. What are the settings i need to do in the server environment?
Because there should not be any loss of any data or junk values getting stored instead of actual values entered by clients.
Also when i query that specific tables in the oracle database after synchronization i should be able to view that data entered by the clients in their own language.
Eg:data entered by china clients should be visible in chinese fonts,
data entered by brazil clients should be visible in brazilian fonts,
data entered by vietnam clients should be visible in vietnamese fonts.
3. will there be any synchronization issues when clients try to sync after data entry with
their own languages?
Please do advice on these issue...........

I have given you the info of how to set up Oracle Lite for UTF8. I can only point you in the direction for globalization on the enterprise server. Also note that Oracle Lite only support NLS_LENGHT_SEMANTICS=BYTE, your EE database will be CHAR, so you have to alter the session paramter before you create the repository and/or publish your application.
Here is a Oracle Document on Globalization:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/globalization/pdf/TWP_AppDev_Unicode_10gR2.pdf
Here is what Oracle Lite's Developers Guide has on development of linguistic sorts:
2.11 Support for Linguistic Sort
Linguistic sort is a feature for the ASCII version of Oracle Database Lite. It produces culturally acceptable order of strings for a specified language or collation sequence. The ASCII version supports several code pages defined by single-byte 8-bit encoding schemes. Each of these code pages is a super set of 7-bit ASCII, and the additional accented characters necessary to support a group of European languages are included in the upper 128 bytes. A new string comparison mechanism is provided that produces strings in a linguistically correct order by mapping each collation element of a string to the corresponding 8-bit value of the supported code page.
2.11.1 Creating Linguistic Sort Enabled Databases
The linguistic sort capability must be enabled when the database is created using the CREATEDB command line utility with the <collation_sequence> enabled.
Note:
For more information on the CREATEDB utility, see Section A.2, "CREATEDB".
The behavior of the ORDER_BY clause and the WHERE condition are determined by how the NLS_SORT parameter is implemented. Binary sorting is the default setting, and is used unless the <collation_sequence> parameter is set to use the linguistic sort ordering rules.
NLSRT is not supported in the current version of Oracle Database Lite. Therefore, NCHAR data type is not yet available.
2.11.2 How Collation Works
Collation refers to ordering of strings into a culturally acceptable sequence. A collation sequence is a sequence of all collation elements from an alphabet from smallest collation order to the largest. Once a collation sequence is given, orders of all strings from the same alphabet are fixed. As such, the collation sequence encodes the linguistic requirements on collation. A collation element is the smallest sub-string that can be used by the comparison function to determine the order of two strings.
2.11.3 Collation Element Examples
Normally, a collation element is just one character. In binary sorting, only one property, the code value that represents a character, is used. But in linguistic sorting, usually three properties. The primary level of difference is the base character. The secondary level of difference is for diacritical marks on a given base character. The tertiary level of difference is for the case of a given character. Punctuation can function as a fourth level of difference, but comparisons for punctuation occur last and are made at the binary rather than the linguistic level. These are used for each collation element. The following sections contain examples that demonstrate sorting priorities.
2.11.3.1 Sorting Normal Characters
This section lists a set of examples that describe how to sort normal characters.
Example 1
'a' < 'b'. There is a primary difference between them on the character level.
Example 2
'À' > 'a'. This difference occurs on the secondary level. Note that 'À'and 'a' are considered "equal" on the primary level.
Example 3
'À' < 'à' in FRENCH but 'À' > 'à' in GERMAN. This difference on the tertiary level. Note that 'À' and 'à' are considered being "equal" on the primary and secondary level. Also note that the case convention may be different for different language.
Example 4
'às' < 'at'. This is a difference on the primary level. This example shows the role of difference levels: the lower level differences are ignored if there is a primary level difference anywhere in the strings.
Example 5
'+data' < '-data' <'data' <'data-'. If strings are compared and present no difference on the primary, secondary, or tertiary levels, they are compared for punctuation.
2.11.3.2 Reverse Sorting of French Accents
Some languages, particularly French, require words to be ordered on the secondary level according to the last accent difference. This behavior is known as French secondary sorting or French accent ordering.
Example
'côte' < 'coté' in FRENCH but 'coté' < 'côte' in GERMAN. Note that the secondary difference of 'e' and 'é' occurred later than those of 'ô' and 'o'.
2.11.3.3 Sorting Contracting Characters
There are some special cases where two or more characters in a group can function as a single collation element. These types of collation elements are called 'contracting characters' or 'group characters'. In these cases each of these characters properties are assigned appropriate values.
Example
'h' < 'ch' < 'i' in XCZECH. Here 'ch' is assigned a primary property value which differentiates it from 'h' and 'i', such that 'h' < 'ch' < 'i'. Note that 'ch' is treated as a single character.
2.11.3.4 Sorting Expanding Characters
If a letter sorts as if it were a sequence of more than one letter, it is called an 'expanding character'. For example, in German the sharp s (ß) is treated as if it were a string of two characters 'ss' when comparing with other letters.
2.11.3.5 Sorting Numeric Characters
Only sorting of single digit characters from '0' to '9' is currently supported. For the supported European languages a digit character is always sorted as greater than any alphabetic character. For other languages this may be not the same. Other numeric characters such as Roman numeric characters and counting sequences, such as "one", "two", "three", are not supported at this time.
Example
'1' > 'z' in any European language, '1' < 'a' in LATVIAN. Note that this difference occurs on the primary level.

Oracle 8i Lite for CE

Does Oracle 8i Lite for CE run on the Jornada 720. This handheld is using the StrongARM SA1110 processor. The core system version is 3.0.

Hi,
I'm runing Oracle8i Lite in windows ME, and I do get the an error saying that the server is too low for this feature, but I get the SQL prompt right away after that. Maybe u should configure the password in the Oracle 8 Navigator, by selecting the new Object icon, and then register your new Database connection.
Good luck

Oracle 8i lite:AQ-lite

We are using the master-client queue configuration for the transfer of messages from the client queue(Oracle 8i Lite) to the master queue(Oracle 8i Server).
The queue(master) was created on the 8i server which was then deployed to the client(8i lite) and both share the same name.We enqueued the messages from the client and enabled propogation to the server(through AQLitePropagator).We are unable to dequeue messages from the server.Could somebody getback on this imm.Thanks!

Hi,
I am qouting below from the oracle 8i Lite documentation which says it supports triggers . Please clarify.

Documentation for Oracle 10g Lite

Hello
I have docummnetation for oracle 10g Lite but there is only informations what to do step by step. I'm looking generally informations about the features mobile databases, synchronization system, managment, and all development support. Where can I find them??

I run Oracle Lite on Pocket PC, and I make some simple program which did some operations on database. I know that the support for .NET is small. But I'm writing the master of science work about three mobile databases (sql ce, oracle lite and sybase) and I have to write a program which will be testing performance of those databases on the mobile device.
Generally I hope this program will work ok. But I also have to write about fuures for example oracle database lite RDBMS, but in documentation there is only few generally informations and almost all document is about how to configure it and how to do something.
So if you have some generally documents (I have those white papers and other pfd on oracle site) please send it to me [email protected] .

Issue in Configuring Oracle WebCenter Content: Records

HI,
I have an issue in Configuring Oracle WebCenter Content: Records
In "Records Management Setup Checklist"
     Checked-in Audit Entries Default Metadata
     Checked-in Screening Reports Default Metadata
     Checked-in Reservation Default Metadata
Am not able to select the category/folder in the default check-in form for the above, and i don't see anything in the drop down also
When i click on the Browse button of above 3..
see Retention Schedule & favorite Schedule
But am not able to select any of those.
AnyOne faced this issue, pls help..
Thanks!!!!

The Oracle webcenter content: Records system will enable the retention schedule but it won't create any default retention category. If you want apply retention to a content then first you have to create the retention category and the disposition rule. Once you create the retention category then it will be listed under Retention Schedule. In your case complete the default configuration without applying retention, once you create retention you can apply that to those contents.
Browse Content --> Retention Schedules --> Create Retention Category
