Connecting to Oracle 8i (on a Unix Box) from Personal Oracle on a Windows Platform

Is this possible... are there any pitfalls to consider?
Does Oracle 8i speak directly to Personal Oracle, or are there any overheads for the operating systems?

Hi raj,
refer the below thread

Steps too create connection between OBIEE and Datamart on UNIX box..

Hi experts..
I have created one repository on my windows machine. Now i need to transfer this repositry on UNIX BOX.. So
1. Please tell me the steps to make a connection between OBIEE and datamart.
2. which files i need to transfer from windows machine to UNIX Box..

Are you asking how to connect to an Oracle database from OBIEE in Unix? (Your question is too vague as datamart could mean anything) If so, read this thread:

How to point to a file in the unix box from portal?

Hi,
I have the following scenario:
My client has installed Portal version 3.0.8 on solaris.
I need to point to a file residing in the unix box, the path is:
/test/apps/u19/applmgr/common/godev/admin/out
the output filename is o1234.out
How do I set up alias in the httpd.conf of the portal to point to this file?
Thanks in advance;
Kelly.

Hi,
We are using 9ias on unix. However, I think the file is the same.
Try this
In you $ORACLE_HOME/httpd.conf file search for the aliases section. You should see something like "Add as many aliases as you want (with no limit)
type the line like this
Alias fakename realname (as in the example)
fakename=virtual path ie /test/
realname=is your real directory (don't include the output file here) specify the output file in you full url
http:hostname:port/test/outputfile.htm
Hope it helps
Have a nice day

Hi,
Before discussing the network configuration of Oracle Linux 7 (By the way; it seams correct), lets talk about the VirtualBox network configuration, So the Network adapter of your VM can be attached to {NAT, Bridged Adapter, Internal Network, Host-only Adapter, ...}, what is the Adapter attached to your NIC?
Make sure the Network Adapter is the same as the your other VM (OL 5.8).
Best regards

Mount a new device in Unix box from Java

Hi,
Would anybody please help me how to write a method that could mount a new device to the sever?
For example, I have new device call "d0". After telnet and login the Unix box, I could execute "/sbin/mount d0". But I don't know how to execute this command from my java app. Someone suggested me to use "telnet" protocol while other suggested to use "socket". I don't know syntax either one.
Please help and thanks in advance.
Hung.

Thank you, newio.
You'll than have to communicate with it using the Telnet protocol. >There i probably a class out there that does this for you, so use >Google to find it.If I find Telnet protocol class, how can I use it with my socket. Is that a stand alone application or class? Honestly, I don't know anything about socket programming. Please clerify a little bit loggically how it works.
Thanks

Steps too create connection between OBIEE and Datamart on UNIX box..Uregnt

Hi experts
I have created my OBIEE repository on windows machine. Now i want to Transfer this repository on unix machine so ....which steps i have to follow..
Thanks in advance

sunil

Hi Sunil,
Your problem Subject and Description doesnot match. If you need to transfer your RPD from Windows to Unix, here are the steps. In fact there is nothing complicated involved.
Hope you have OBI already installed in the Unix machine,
1. Ftp your RPD from Windows machine to the Unix server.
2. Put it in the $SAROOTDIR/server/Repository path
3. Make changes in the NQSConfig.ini file, if needed
4. Bounce the OBI Admin service
But if you need to change the connection pool details on Unix, that is another story altogether.

Start and Stop Oracle BI services on UNIX box?

Hi All,
We have OBIEE installed on the Unix Servers and want to start and stop the Bi services.
What is the command to do so?

Hi,
At the Unix prmompt I am executing the following command but it throws an error saying : run-sa.sh command not found,I am in the OracleBI\Set up Directory on the unix machine

does anyone has idea is that the exact command to I am missing anything?In what directory are you trying to execute that command? Do "pwd" to see where you are. You seem to need Unix training. In Unix (like in DOS) you can only execute a command/program that exists the PATH environment variable. Most likely the OBIEE bin directory won't be in the path, unless someone specifically added it. Further more the current directory (referred as ".") is not usually in the PATH variable either so when you execute commands you have to prefix them with the full path or with the current directory as Vinodh suggested.

Calling Unix-Script from within Oracle and store stdout/stderr in table

Hi,
What I want to do is:
1. Calling a UNIX script (e.g. hello.sh) (from inside the Database)
hello.sh
echo Hello World!
2. and get the stdout/stderr output back in my Database in a table (e.g. temp_back)
table temp_back
ID stdout stderr
1 Hello World!
I think Number 1 isnt a big problem, but how to get stdout back in DB?
Any solution?
I searched a bit in this Forum and found this Post.
re:Calling Host Command Through Database Procedures or Triggers
This may be what I am searching for, but cant access the Link
Since I am not really fit with UNIX and packages/procedures in Oracle it would be nice if you could post a very detailed answer.
(Please no java)
-What packages do I need? (heard DBMS_OUTPUT would be useful)
-example PL/SQL script
Thanks a lot!
Marcus
Environment:
Oracle 9.2.0 DB

Marcus, if you opened the Java sandbox to access any o/s file, you can call any Unix command, shell script, or program, that the Oracle o/s user has exec privs on.
Just remember that there's a very basic Unix environment when you make the call - the settings in the .profile does not apply. Thus PATH for example is not set. When making the call make sure that the complete path is given. As for the environment, that is a problem as you cannot set that and make the call at the same time.
In that case it is much simpler to rather write a Unix shell script that does all for you. Set the environment. Run the command(s). Format output. Etc.
Then you call that Unix script, via Java, from SQL or PL/SQL. Treat the Unix scripts like the Unix-version of stored procedures for your Oracle application.
Some technical details. When you connect to Oracle, a Unix process services you. This can be either a dedicated server process (servicing only your Oracle session) or a shared server process (from the shared service pool of processes).
In either case, it is a Unix process running as a background process (thus detached from any tty device). PL/SQL and SQL are executed by this process. The Oracle JVM created by your session also lives in this process. When you therefore make o/s calls, these calls are made by this process.
Therefore you are limited to what this process can and can't do. E.g. it runs as the oracle o/s user and will fail on accessing paths and commands does the oracle user does not have privs on. Etc.

What are some active IRC (Internet Relay Chat) Channels where people can discuss Oracle related issues and seek support from other Oracle users?

I know of #Oracle on Freenode, but it isn't very active, I was hoping to find some that are more active.
Thanks,
Mansoor

IRC and the Oracle discussion forum are complete different things. One is live chat, the later is the exchange of written communication. I think the Oracle community will be your best option. It depends what you are looking for, which you did not outline. IRC is a dinosaur from the last century, which has a bad reputation in regard to security standards and hence is often blocked by corporate networks. For instance, because IRC connections are usually unencrypted and typically span long time periods, they are an attractive target for Dos/DDos attackers.

Execute Unix command from Java program running on windows

Hello,
I need to write a java program that fetches file count in a particular unix machine directory. But java program will be running on windows machine.
The program should execute unix list command and fetch the output of that command.
Can anyone help me on this?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I had a similiar problem, though years ago. It was to have a java program execute any other. Lately, I've had to have a java program running on a unix machine execute a shell script. Entirely two different scenarios. I'm not sure what you will need for your app, but look into this:
Java Native Interface for executing C/C++ code.
C/C++ Code for launching the program you need to run.
java.lang.Runtime(?).exec(....)
With a combination of that stuff, you can make a launcher for any os that has Java running on it, and with Runtime, you can exec() pretty near any sort of unix shell or app command you'd like.
Good luck.

Actually SendMailJPkg.SendMail (JavaMail) does work when called out of Forms/Reports 10g against an 11g Database. We just tested it as an alternative because we are having the same issue with UTL_MAIL - It will run from an annonymous PL/SQL block fine, but when you try to compile the same code in Forms Builder (or Report Builder) the compiler chokes and throws the internal error [60603] error. Keep in mind that SendMail does NOT like NULL arguments, so if you are not going to use cc_recipient (i.e. NULL), just don't include it at all in your comma delimited param list. It should work fine then.

How to retrieve information on UNIX Host from oracle Forms

Hi,
Has anybody tried to retrieve manipulated information
on the Unix Server From the oracle forms running on a client ?.
If it is to be done by user exit and calling the pro*c code
then where should the pro*c code exist ?. on server or on client.
1. If on server then can that code return the value to form ?.
2. If on client then can that code access the unix server and
return the value ?..
OR
any other method or tool to do the above.
Thnaks and regards
null

I can only tell you what we've done for our system. We have
client applications which need to send/recv information from the
UNIX server (report submission, etc.)
We have a deamon (written in PRO*C) which runs on the UNIX
server. This deamon constantly monitors a pipe (using the
DBMS_PIPE package available with ORACLE 7.1). The client apps.
send requests through this pipe and wait for the server deamon to
process the request and send responses down a "return pipe".
This approach has served us well.
With ORACLE 8, you can (according to what I've read) link
external object modules (similar to ORA_FFI on the client), which
would make these OS specific functions available to the database
developer via PL/SQL but we're just now looking at ORACLE 8 so I
have no first hand experience with this.

Connecting to personal oracle

Hello,
would anyone help me to connect to the personal oracle using thin driver. i tried with the folling url. but i could not.
iam using ocalce8.0, jdk1.2.2.
String url="jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger@(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = BEQ)
(PROGRAM = oracle80)
(ARGV0 = oracle80ORCL)
(ARGS = '(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))')
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ORCL)
Connection con=DriverManager.getConnection(url);
I get an exception java.sql.SQLException: IoException :The Network Adapter could not establish the connection.
Pls, help me to connect to the personal oracle.
thanks,

I think
String url="jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger"
is enough for personal oracle versions,
while you call from local machine.

I installed Oracle 10 on aix Unix no issues - just want to create a db how?

why is it so hard to find out something so simple as creating a db using x-windows to my unix box from a laptop???

should be able to just telnet or ssh to your host with your xclient (or another method as long as your xwindow is running on your laptop), set your DISPLAY variable and then launch dbca if you have all the appropriate permissions.
