Connecting oracle dev 2000 forms to oracle 9i database on another server

we have these oracle developer 2000 forms (in .fmx format) in a server and the data of these forms in another server.... the server with the data is very old and is very slow...so we decided to relocate the database(oracle 9i) to a new server..... also, we move the developer 2000 forms from the old server to another server which will serve as the front end to the new data server.
The problem is we can't figure out how to make the developer 2000 forms on the new front end server to point to the new database on the new data server. I would really appreciate if u cud gimme some advice on this... so we need to know how the forms find the data, where this "connection string" is for developer 2000 forms.

You have to create a Net Service from "Net Configuration Assistant". Or you can copy TNSNAMES.ora file from your old server to new server. You can find TNSNAMES.ora file in developer_suite_Home/Network/admin folder.

  • Connect to a oracle database in another server

    Hi people,
    I have to read some tables on a oracle database in another server.
    I know that I will have to use EXEC SQL command, but how can I make the connection between SAP and that oracle database.
    I have seen something about the DBCON table, but I am not sure if I can connect on another server from ther and how...
    Thanks...

  • Connecting from Oracle designer 2000 Forms 4.5 to 9i

    Hi,
    a)We have installed Oracle designer 2000 and are able to connect to a 9.0.1.0.0 database.
    The Versions we have used are as follows:-
    Forms [32 Bit] Version 4.5.7.1.6 (Production)
    Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production
    With the Partitioning option
    JServer Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production
    Oracle Toolkit Version 2.3.6.9.0 (Production)
    PL/SQL Version 1.2.1.5.0 (Production)
    Oracle Procedure Builder V1.5.6.15.3 - Production
    Oracle Virtual Graphics System Version 2.1.10.7.0 (Production)
    Oracle Tools GUI Utilities Version 1.2.0.10.0 (Production)
    Oracle Multimedia Version 2.0.7.9.0 (Production)
    Oracle Tools Integration Version 1.2.0.4.0 (Production)
    Oracle Tools Common Area Version 2.0.0.9.0
    Oracle CORE Version 3.5.2.0.0 - Production
    b)We are able to connect from SQL 3.1 to a 9.0.1.0.0 database also.
    1)Does Oracle support this configuration?
    2)Will my Oracle 4.5 forms builder be able to use all the objects available in the 9.0.1.0.0 database?
    3)Is there a possibility that my forms will not run properly because of this configuration?

    Strictly speaking we only certify the upgrade from 6i to 9i, however, the technical details of going from 4.5 directly to 9i are the same and in many cases should work as going from 6i to 9i.

  • Migrate Oracle/dev 2000 to SQL Server 2000

    We are in the process of doing a case study for moving some of our very small Oracle databases with Dev 2000 front ends to MS Sql Server 2000. I know the Migration Workbench is a tool for moving non-Oracle database sources like Informix and Sql Server to Oracle, but can we do the vice-versa i.e Oracle to Sql Server. I know there would be issues like different data types, PL/SQL vs T-SQL etc etc.
    Anybody with views/suggestions on the subject?? - many thanks for the same
    Gavin Soorma

    Gavin,
    The migration workbech migrates customers from non-oracle systems to Oracle.
    We also have Transparent Gateway for SQL Server which is used for to operate in a heterogenous environments. That is if you have an application that accesses data that resides in a combination of Oracle and non-oracle databases, then you can use the gateway to get a unified view of all the data.
    If I may ask why are you thinking of migrating from Oracle to SQL Server and will you be also changing the front end i.e the dev 2000 application?

    Hi,
    >> The -c option gives the option of entering username/password but I didnt know what to enter.
    "-c" means that brconnect does not require a confirmation during the process
    >>  As far as I remember (I dont remember much) the -u option automatically entered system/********** which did not succeed.
    "-u /" means that brconnect will connect to the database with OPS$ mechanism.
    At this stage, could you download and patch latest br*tools from SAP Marketplace?

  • How to connect to a MySQL database in another server

    Dear friends,
    I am using Oracle SQL Developer 1.5.3 and I need to connect to a MySQL database located in another server.
    I am trying to create a new connection, informing connection name, username and password. Supposing that "Hostname" is the IP server address, I click on "Choose database", but I always receive the following error message: "Status : Failure - Cannot connect to MySQL server".
    Please tell me what I should do to solve this situation. Thanks in advance.
    Best regards,
    Franklin

    You need to configure your mysql database to accept connection from your PC for the user you used.
    For example,
    GRANT ALL ON *.* TO 'someuser'@'somehost';
    FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

    Hello,
    I have a WSUS server which has Windows Internal Database installed. Now If I have to manage the database using SQL Server management studio, then I need to connect using the Server Name as \\.\pipe\MSSQL$MICROSOFT##SSEE\sql\query
    Now, if I want to connect to the server that has Windows Internal Database installed, but does not have SQL Server Management Studio installed, then how to connect?
    Please advice. Thanks in advance.

    You can either install SQL Server management Studio or SQLCMD and then work with Windows Internal Database
    Both of these are freely downloadable from microsoft website.
    Please find the links for SQL 2014
    Management Studio

    You can download one of these based on 32/64bit

  • Calling ActiveX Control in Oracle Developer 2000 - Forms 5

    Hi All,
    I am looking for sample code to call an ActiveX control from my application.
    I have a data input form once i submit the data, the ActiveX control is called and the data is transmitted to a 3rd party application. Could you kindly provide me some pointer here please.
    Thanks

    You're using a very old version of forms and also of SQL*Net.
    to be sure that the problem is forms/sql*net related and not due to other reasons (e.g. network), you could install the current version (forms 10g) and just see if the connect is any faster. If it is, you could try to run Forms 5 with a newer version of the oracle-client /Sql*net to see if that works better.
    hope this helps.

  • Connecting to Access Database on another server

    I'm trying to connect to an ODBC remotely from my local computer. I know the IP address of the machine and how to set up the DSN, but I don't know the port that the ODBC listens too! I've looked all over the web but I can't figure out how to figure this out. Can someone help me?
    Also, as a sidebar, is it possible to open up this connection through an applet if the ODBC and the web server are on the same computer? That would be really helpful.
