Connecting Discoverer 4i Plus

Hi there!
I have a problem with the Discoverer 4i Plus....
When I try to connect to the Application Server, I received this Connection Error message: "Failed to connect to locator XPTOOracleDiscovererLocator4 pointed by locator.ior file at ...."
Can anyone tell me a way to fix this problem?
Regards,
GDS

We had the same problem. There is a patch available on oracle metalink that will upgrade disco admin edition (to version 4.1.36), which will then update your EUL.
Here is how you get it:
-go to: "metalink.oracle.com"
-click: "patches"
-click: "Click here for Patches released..."
-select product: "Discoverer admin..."
-select platform: "MS Windows NT/2000..."
and there it is...
here is the patch info:
ID:657540 Patchset::1750539
Discoverer 4.1 Admin and Desktop Edition Patch version 4.1.36 for MS Windows NT

Cannot connect to Discoverer 11g PLUS

Hallo,

Please, i need your help!

I had a similar problem with a vanilla install of 11g on my local Windows XP box. The difference was that I could connect using SqlPlus but could not connect with Sql Developer.
In Sql Developer, I first tried "Connection type = basic", "Hostname = localhost", "Port = 1521" and "sid = orcl".
I then tried "Connection type = TNS", "Network Alias = ORCL".
Neither worked.
In the end, I got around the first problem by replacing "localhost" with the machine's IP address. I got around the second problem by looking at windows services and noticing that the "OracleOraDb11g_home1TNSListener" service was set to start automatically but was not started. I started it manually and all was good. I'm sure this willl alll fall apart when my IP address changes due to DHCP but at least I will know where to look.

Multiple EUL Connections in Discoverer 9i Plus

Discoverer 9i Plus doesn't allow you to change your default EUL anymore. I currently have to set up different connections for each EUL. Is there a way to set up one connection and change between my EULs like it had done in previous versions?

I believe that while you can turn on the ability for an end-user to create private connections, only the administrator (that would be the application server administration) can create public connections.
Otherwise any end user could open a database connection to everyone, which wouldn't be very secure.

Discoverer Viewer/Plus 10g after a migration from Discoverer 4i

Hi, I upgrated Discoverer4i to Discoverer 10g with Ebusiness Suite 11i ( 11.5.9) without installin AS 10g
I followed the note: http://oracle-magic.blogspot.com/2006/11/upgrading-discoverer-4i-to-10g-on-apps.html
If I use Discoverer Administrator and Desktop it works perfectly (I connect as an Oracle Application User)
Now, I want to see my reports with Discoverer Viewer/Plus but I don't understand how to do it (always connecting with an Oracle Application user).
My previous URL (with Discoverer4i) was: http://gnvdev.ote.gr:8025/discoverer4i/viewer
Now, after the Discoverer 10g installation I can connect to the "Welcome to Oracle Business Intelligence 10g (10.1.2)" page with the following URL:http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779/
I didn't understand how Ebusiness Suite 11i ( 11.5.9) can communicate with Discoverer 10g in order to see reports from the web
Can anyone help to understand where and how I should modify anything in order to see my reports with Discoverer Viewer or Plus
Thank you
Alex

If you have followed all the steps in "Note: 313418.1 - Using Discoverer 10.1.2 with Oracle E-Business Suite 11i" then you should be able to access Discoverer Plus/Viewer through the following links:
Discoverer Plus:
http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779//discoverer/plus
Discoverer Viewer:
http://gnvdev.ote.gr:7779//discoverer/viewer
The above links will prompt for some input, all what you need to provide is:
- Applications Username
- Applications Password
- Database (SID)

Connecting to SQL*PLUS

Good afternoon. I have a strange issue when I try to connect to SQL*PLUS, Designer and Discoverer too, with an id other than SYSTEM or SYS. I have 10G database installed on my local PC, with the 10G client, Developer Suite with Discoverer and Designer. I connected in the command window with SYS to create the Designer repository and everything worked fine. I can CONNECT to SQL*PLUS to my local db with the SYSTEM id, but not with my own id. I can't connect to Designer repository with the REPOS_MANAGER id either. It looks as if it is trying to connect, but I get an hour glass and a NOT RESPONDING in the Windows task list. I have checked the id's by logging on to SQL*PLUS with SYSTEM id, and they are set up correctly. Any thoughts or suggestions? I can connect to my local database through GUI tools like TOAD or SQL*Tools using my own id. I would greatly appreciate any ideas you might have. Thanks. DLD

Hi D Moran,
You don't mention the platform and/or Oracle versions you work with, but generally speaking, did you check:
- the tns service (windows) is started?
- did you wait for a moment after the database service started, so that it had the time to "announce itself" to the tns service?
- do you have only one tnsnames.ora file? if more then one: did you select the corresponding oracle home?
etc...
Maybe some of these checks help!
Regards,
Sabine

Unable to connect Discoverer Server:IDL:DCCORBAException:1.0

Hi all,
I installed Discoverer 10 server on a machine called gnvmig.ote.gr and when I connect (from Discoverer Plus) to an Application EUL on the same machine I don't have any kind of problem. If I try to be connected to an Application EUL on another machine I have the following error:
Unable to connect Discoverer Server:IDL:DCCORBAException:1.0
I added inside the tnsnames.ora the connection string (to the other machine) and I enabled the trace....but inside the apps_trace.txt I don't any errors.
The strange thing is that the connection on the remote machine worked perfectly since yesterday....and now....nothing !!
The connection trace is the following:

I want to underline that I didn't create a secure directory under the .../disco10g/discoverer path
Maybe should I create it and copy some .dbc files inside ?
But if the answer is 'YES', how did it work until yesterday ??? I have the suyspect that something has changed on the Application envinronment....
Any help will be appreciated
Thanks in advance
Alex

If you always get this error, then I don't know the answer. However, I see this message if I try to open a second Discoverer Plus session from the same browser session (either the same connection dialog, or on another tab of the same session). You can have multiple sessions of Discoverer , but they must be opened from completely separate browser sessions, or different browsers.

Unable to connect Discoverer server: null Please contact your Administrator

Hi All,
Please advice, when I open the discoverer(10g) in the web version(IE8,firefox3.5.5) I got the error like below
"Unable to connect Discoverer server: null Please contact your Oracle Application Server Administrator"
I have clear the temporary cache and cookies in the JAVA and also in the browsers but still am having this error.
Please advice.
Thanks,
Kamal

Error when attempting to create connection -- Discoverer

Hi.
Application server 10g 10.1.2.0.2
Discoverer (business intelligence)
HP-UX
10g Database
We have a new installation of the application server with Discoverer. If we try to create a connection from the Discoverer connection page for plus or viewer, we get the following error:
Error
A connection error has occurred.
- oracle.discoiv.controller.DiscovererControllerException: Attempted to exceed 2 oracle.discoiv.state.LoginTransitions History: oracle.discoiv.state.LogoutTransition oracle.discoiv.state.LoginTransition oracle.discoiv.state.LogoutTransition oracle.discoiv.state.LoginTransition

We even created a user with no special characters/numbers. Simply text. It has not worked for any user. I can create a public connection without any issue. I do indeed have the checkbox selected for creating private connections.
Anyone else? Have you seen this? Resolved this (even better!)?
Thanks!

Hi everyone
There is a known issue when using AIX, HP-ux or Linux against a 10.1.x database. If this is your scenario, then you need to obtain and read the appropriate release notes. For your information, the necessary instructions are attached here:
When using Oracle Database 10g Release 1 (10.1.x) for the Metadata Repository or after upgrading the Metadata Repository to Oracle Database 10g Release 1, you might see the following error on the OracleBI Discoverer Plus Connection pages, the OracleBI Discoverer Viewer Connection pages, and the Public Connection definition page in Application Server Control:
The connection list is currently unavailable.
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "ORASSO.WWSSO_API_PRIVATE," line 258
ORA-06510: PL/SQL: unhandled user-defined exception
ORA-06512: at "ORASSO.WWSSO_UTL" line 728
ORA-28231: no data passed to obfuscation toolkit
ORA-06512: at line 1 Unable to retrieve connection list
To resolve this issue, make the following changes in the Metadata Repository database:
1. Edit the init%ORACLE_SID%.ora file in the following location:
DB_install_home/dbs
2. Add the following line to this file:
event="10946 trace name context forever, level 36"
3. If an spfile%ORACLE_SID%.ora exists in either the dbs folder or the database folder, rename the file to spfile%ORACLE_SID%.bak. Changes to init%ORACLE_SID%.ora are not loaded if the database server finds an spfile.
4. Log in as a sysadmin.
5. At the SQL prompt, shut down then start up the database server.
6. Restart the OracleBI Discoverer server using the command opmnctl restartall.
You can get the full AIX document by clicking here: http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/B25207_03/toc.htm
The Linux document by clicking here: http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/B25824_01/toc.htm
and the HP-ux document here: http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/B25199_03/toc.htm
and then searching for 06512.
Neither Windows nor Unix appear to be plagued this way, at least not so far. :-)
I hope this helps
Best wishes

Discoverer 4i Plus Applet not initializing Win2k/IE6 - Solution

Hi,
I finally got a solution to the problem of the Discoverer 4i Plus Applet not launching on IE 6.0 Windows2000 machines.
When you click on the image "Click to Start" the area goes grey and the applet never comes up. When you look at the java console you will notice a class not found exception. The reasons are as follows :
- IE 6.0 doesn't come with a built in JVM unlike the earlier versions. The JVM resides with the OS i.e. Windows2000 or WindowsXP.
- When launching the Discoverer applet you need to invoke the appropriate htm page
e.g. http://serverURL/discwb4/html/english/ms_ie/start_ie.htm
This htm page doesn't have any hint in the <applet> tag to use jinitiator or any other JVM to launch the applet, assuming that since the IE browser has an embedded JVM the applet will be launched. However this fails to happen since IE6.0 which ships with Window200 and Windows XP doesn't have a built in JVM. Why the JVM in the OS doen't take of that I don't know as yet. Therefore the applet fails to load and you get a class not found exception that can be verified thru the browser's java console.
- So instead of calling the IE configured page start_ie.htm call the corresponding netscape page like http://serverURL/discwb4/html/english/netscape/start_nn.htm. The start_nn.htm page has the appropriate <embed> tags to hint the initialization of the applet using jinitiator or other JVM. Therefore the applet gets launched.
Hope this helps all those who have had to face this issue.

Hi Simon
(4) Can I take the user automatically to the list of database workbooks ("Open Workbook from Database" dialogue box) without the user having to choose "Open an existing workbook" and "Database"?
Yes user can automatically view the workbooks or the worksheet or even a particular page of the worksheet.
Give the URL to the user and ask the user to run the URL from his/her browser. The URL shloud however contain the username, password, database name, workbook name etc...
This way we can bypass all the login screens and go directly to the desired page.
URL is as follows
http://hostname.domain/program_name/?us=APPS&db=devl&wb=Wb3&pw=apps
where
hostname.domain/program_name is where ur discoverer viewer is residing
us is the username
pw is the password
db is the database u wnat to connect to
wb is the workbook u want to open
Try this , this works.
Ankit

Discoverer 4i Plus returns no data when using views with db link references

I am using Discoverer 41 Plus to view reports online.
When I create a worksheet based on a view, that only references local tables, everything is OK and Disco plus shows the output OK.
When I create a worksheet based on a view, that references a Database link, Disco plus gives me an "Query caused no data to be returned" error.
Is this to be expected from Discoverer Plus?
Thanks - Sue.

I'm wondering if this has anything to do with the default position (and default aggregate) for the EUL folder item? I can see that some of the folders have number type items with default position 'Data Point' and others have these with default position of 'Top or Side'. I'm totally stabbing around in the dark here; looking at EUL folders which exhibit the problem and those which don't.
I've tried changing one field to 'Data Point' and it hasn't helped. Will try changing the join items now I think.
If anyone has any comments, would be v. grateful as I'm looking at dropping folders which have quite a bit of code around them and trying to re-create them exactly, which is a risky and horrible solution.

NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - ProductionOS is AIX 5.3 for Oracle 10 and AIX 6.1 for Oracle 11.
We are currently in the process of migrating some applications from Oracle 10 to 11. Our admins have setup a new development system for us with an Oracle 11 instance. Regarding performance the new system behaves more or less the same than our old, e.g. when executing SQLs we notice hardly any performance differences and those we find are slightly in favour of the new system.
But now we discovered that the time it takes to establish a database connection via SQL*Plus is longer on the Oracle 11 system. Running the following code
sqlplus -s user/pw@database <<END
quit
ENDa thousand times takes ~60s under Oracle 10 but ~140s under Oracle 11. This may not seem much but we are running a test framework consisting of a bunch of shell scripts where several thousand connections are openend via SQL*Plus to execute some SQLs, so that even this small time difference results in rather huge difference in total runtime. The SQLs themself require roughly the same time in both databases, as already mentioned above they are in fact slightly faster in Oracle 11.
To analyze the time difference I ran a trace for the connect with the following parameters in sqlnet.ora
TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT=4
TRACE_UNIQUE_CLIENT=ONand found out that there is a time difference of about 70ms during the connect handshake:

With local connections - I do not think a TCP packet send from an IP to the same IP, leaves the interface as an actual wire protocol/signal. If I'm correct, then running local connection tests will be mostly useless in checking the actual network infrastructure.
Tests 3 and 4 should be showing the same connection times as the same physical network infrastructure is used - only the direction is reversed in the tests.
I would assume that port settings on the switches and interface settings on the routers treat packets equally in both directions between 2 servers. But this could in part explain the problem if this is not the case. In a case of a router for example, the 1st test's ingress interface is the egress interface of the 2nd test (and vice versa). Configurations can differ substantially between interfaces on the same router. Likewise if there is a firewall - as different rule sets are applied in each test and these rule sets could differ.
So I would not be too quick to state that this is definitely not a network problem. But I agree that based on the small percentage difference (assuming comparable tests), it does not look like a network issue.
The next step is to determine what the delay is between the listener accepting the client connection, and the connection being serviced by a dedicated server process.
This will require listener tracing - tracing the time from when the listener accepted the connection (and parsed the TNS connection string), to handing off the connection to the dedicated server process.
As a comparison test, you can also test shared server connections. Dispatcher processes (of the db instance) register themselves with the listener. The shared server client hand off is thus done to an existing server process - no need for the Listener to make a kernel call to load and initialise an executable image.
Shared connections are typically faster than dedicated connections in this respect.
If there is a major time difference, then it means some kind of issue with the listener dealing with dedicated servers as oppose to dispatcher hand off's. As both connections would have had very similar network transit time - which means the connection time difference is related directly to dealing with a dedicated server connection request and hand off.
You can also substitute the oracle executable with a wrapper - and troubleshoot the actual dedicated server startup. I've only done this with Oracle XE 10.2 though and with local IPC connections. Unsure how robust this will be for testing purposes via TCP using 11g.

Error when connecting to SQL*PLUS via ODBC to Excel

OS: Windows 2000 Professional
Oracle DB: 9i release 2
SQL*Plus: Release 9.2.0.1.0
MS Excel: 2000
===================
When I try to connect to SQL*PLUS via ODBC to Excel with "connect scott/tiger@odbc:libro" I get the following error:
ORA-03121: no interface driver connected - function not performed

SQL Server objects are commonly case sensitive, so please surround the column and table names by double quotes:
SELECT "Type_PK_ID" FROM "dbo"."boundaries"@sqlserver
SIDE NOTE: Oracle is by default not case sensitive and all object names are stored in upper case. To get case sensitive objects they need to be surrounded by double quotes. In HSODBC case sensitive table names were commonly found even when not surrounded by double quotes as the gateway used internal SQL Server methods to find the correct table nameing - this method does not work for column names. So to be able to query a case sensitive column it needs to be surrounded by double quotes and the table name must be written as stored in the source database.

Trouble with connecting my photosmart plus b209a

trouble with connecting my photosmart plus b209a ........it was conncected to my network until today i was messing around with it and reset the network default by accident, and now i am trying to connect the printer to my router and it says it doesnt see any connection and ive tried reseting the router bunch of times, and then for a brief minute it said it was connected to ssid hpsetup? and communication mode adhoc?.. not really sure what that was so i reset the network on the printer again back to default and i dont really know what to do it just says no connection found, does anyone have an idea of what i should do and whats wrong

Hi joey12293,
I am linking a document that has very good information about how to install the printer to the network. Click Here See if this helps. Let me know how it goes.
Good Luck !
