Connecting two machines using personal oracle

I have a personal oracle 8.0.4 installed on my machine, I tried to connect another machine to use the same database, as a networking both machines were able to access the other but upon trying to connect to oracle I always get TNS message.
Would you please advise.

Make sure that your listener is started along with the oracle version. use lsnrctl command to start view listener status
lsnrctl> status tells status
> start to start
> stop to stop listener
now you need to configure the tnsnames thru net8 easy config or manually. it works
good luck

Connect two machines via WiFi

I've forgotten the magic routine to connect two machines via WiFi.
Have Sharing turned on, multiple tries with Go > Network. Nothing.
Cannot see Machine A from Machine B. Clearly I've forgotten how to walk & chew gum at the same time.

Is there a Router involved?
If not then under the Airport icon in the Menu Bar, choose "Create Network, that is for Computer to Computer, then shortly there after, the other one will "see" it.
In System Preferences>Sharing, turn both Personal File Sharing &Personal Web Sharing to advertise the fact.
For full access, sign in from Computer #1 with Computer #2's Username & Computer #2's Password & vice versa.

Connecting Two PC using internet connection ??

This is not what you have in mind, but it will work.
Create a server that listens for connections from a client. Create a list of commands that can be issued by client to view information. Such a list in your case would be similar to the following:
Open
ChageDir
Rename
CreateDir
DeleteDir
ListDir
Next, you need to implement the processes that will actually do the command on the remote computer. When the client issues the "ListDir" command, then adds a line (the path of the directory to list) the server should then do this (vary simple, but you get the idea):
File file = new File(theDirectory);
if (file.isDirectory()) {
String[] list = file.list();
socketOutputStream.println("Directory " + theDirectory);
for (int i=0; i<list.length;i++) {
socketOutputStream.println(list);
socketOutputStream.flush();
So, you should get the idea from this. For each command, have a method to handle the actual work on the server-side, then have the server send the resulting data back to the client for display. Notice how much this looks like DOS. It's the same idea - a command line interface (called a CLI).

Connecting Developer 6 to Personal Oracle 8.1.0.5

I installed Personal Oracle 6.0 and Developer 6.0 on Windows 98 in different homes.
Have I install a network card to be able to connect Developer 6.0 to the personal Oracle 8.1.0.5 ?

Hi, how are you?
I read your file. On my computer, I got the same problem. First I installed Personal Oracle 8.15 version under window 98. The oracle home is e:\orale\ora81. Then I installed Form 8i in the orale home e:\oracle\ora. After installation, there are two SQLPLUS. One is under ora81 and another is ora. The one which is in e:\oracle\ora81 is working and it can bring up the database. Another one and Forms don't work. They can not connect to the local database. It means my client which is under e:\oracle\ora can't connect to my server which is under e:\oracle\ora81. I think I shoud set up the connection in tnsnames.ora by using Net8 Easy Config. I did it. It failed. Can you help me?
Thanks.

If you have Personal Oraacle 8 running properly on your PC, then you can just connect to the database from Developer V6 using your normal username/password. For example, if you log on to SQLPLUS as scott/tiger, then the same will work for your forms and reports. You don't even need to enter a connect string. I have it working OK on a Windows '98 PC, with Personal Oracle 8i, and Forms v6i.<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>

Difficulties connecting with oci8 to Personal Oracle 8 on Win98

After looking through responses to other similar difficulties posted, I still can't seem to get this working.
I have Personal Oracle 8 running on Win98 on a laptop. I'm using Sun jdk117 and trying to connect with oci8 because the thin driver won't work without a TCP/IP listener which I understand Personal Oracle doesn't support.
There's an entry in my PATH pointing to c:\jdbc where the oci805jdbc.dll file is, and an entry in CLASSPATH pointing to c:\jdbc\classes111.zip .
To start with I'm using a simple connect program which shouldn't do much more than make a connection and close it again (please see below).
The program compiles fine, but when I run it all I get is:
C:\apache\jserv11b3\servlets>java connect2
in main()
connect instantiated
in tryconnect()
going to attempt connect
java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no oci805jdbc in shared library path
at java.lang.Runtime.loadLibrary(Compiled Code)
at java.lang.System.loadLibrary(System.java:561)
at oracle.jdbc.oci7.OCIDBAccess.logon(OCIDBAccess.java:186)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection.<init>(OracleConnection.java:127)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver.getConnectionInstance(OracleDriver.ja

at connect2.tryconnect(connect2.java:19)
at connect2.main(connect2.java:42)
C:\apache\jserv11b3\servlets>
I can't see any reason why there should be problems linking oci805jdbc.dll as PATH definitely has an entry pointing to the directory where it is located.
Doubtless I'm doing something silly, or I'm missing some essential configuration parameter.
Thanks for any helpful suggestions.
program code:
import java.sql.*;
class connect2
public int tryconnect()
throws ClassNotFoundException , SQLException
System.out.println("in tryconnect()");
/* Load the Oracle Driver */
Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
System.out.println ("going to attempt connect");
try
/* get the connection */
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc racle ci8:@laptop:1521:ORCL", "system", "manager");
catch (SQLException e)
System.out.println ("Database Connect Failed");
System.out.println (e.getMessage());
return (1) ;
return (0);
public static void main(String argv[])
throws ClassNotFoundException , SQLException
System.out.println ("in main()");
/* Create the instance */
connect2 c = new connect2();
System.out.println ("connect instantiated");
/* Call the tryconnect. Returns 0 if success , 1 if failed */
int Csuccess = c.tryconnect();
if (Csuccess == 0 )
System.out.println("Successfully Connected");
null

Thanks for your kind response.
I'll have a look through the docs and see if I can find out how to get the TCP/IP listener running with Personal Oracle.
I've been trying to use oci805jdbc.dll from the jdbc80520-nt.zip download file.
Since the original post I've been trying to get the connection working with the Sun JDBC-ODBC bridge, but all I get is:
C:\apache\jserv11b3\servlets>java connect2
in main()
connect instantiated
in tryconnect()
going to attempt connect
Database Connect Failed
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default drive
r specified
The java code is identical apart from:
Class.forName ("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
and
Connection conn =
DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc dbc:LAPTOP;database=ORCL", "system", "manager");
The relevant entry in tnsnames.ora is:
LAPTOP.WORLD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = BEQ)(PROGRAM = oracle80)(ARGV0 = oracle80ORCL)(ARGS = '(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=BEQ)))'))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = ORCL)
Many thanks for any help.

How to connect two monitors using macbook pro?

Hi,
I have a Macbook Pro through which I want to extend the displays to two individual monitors.
The two monitors should show two different windows which is opened through my macbook.
I have observed that macbook has only one mini display port through which I connect to HDMI or to DVI ports in monitor.
So how do I connect another monitor source to my macbook, which ports can help in this situation?
The monitors I have which can supports HDMI,DVI,VGA and DP ports.
Could anyone help me on this issue.
Thanks.

You can use a USB 2.0/3.0 to HDMI/DVI interface. You might also consder Thundebolt to HDMI/DVI.
The MBP 13" will support three screens (two external) and the MBP 15" will support four screen (three external).

XSQL-007 using Personal Oracle 8.1.6

How do I check whether the SID is ORCL and if not, can I change it? I did a default database installation.
When I look at the tnsnames.ora their is no mention of SID=ORCL - I don't know where to look or how to make the SID=ORCL. I added it after CONNECT_DATA =
CONNECT_DATA =
(SID=ORCL) <== added line
following example of another database, restarted database, but it did no good. Another aspect I don't understand - I can start SQLPLUS without specifying a database, but if I specify test or test.global, which is in the tnsnames.ora, it does not work. So what connect string is it using when I don't provide one? When I look in the Oracle home for the database, it says ORACLE_SID=test, but neither test or test.global works as connect strings.
I can ping local host.

Connecting two macs using ethernet

Hi All
am attempting to link my iMac and Mabook. I've done it before with a firewire cable, but have forgotten how to. Have tried varios combinations of password and user name, but can't get access to macbook from my imac. Am wanting to transfer photos from macbook to imace.
Saw a post about connecting using ethernet, but equally am not sure how to.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Robert

As Jolly Giant says you need to enable file sharing, though only on the mac you want to connect to. IE, if you want to connect to the MacBook from the iMac you'd enable sharing on the MacBook.
To connect by ethernet, simply plug one end of the cable into one mac and the other end into the other. If you connect to a wireless network using airport and your mac is set to use the airport before the ethernet (see system prefs> network> list at the side shows order) you may have to turn the airport off on one of the computers to ensure you're transferring files across the ethernet (rather than the wireless, which will be far slower).
Once you've connected the cable and turned sharing on the shared computer should show up in the sidebar of a Finder window. If it doesn't, check that Finder is set to show shared computers, in the menubar Finder > Preferences > Sidebar > Tick Connected Servers & Bonjour Computers.
Clicking on the shared computer's icon in the sidebar should connect you as a guest, however at the top of the Finder pane there will be a black bar that says Connected As: you can then connect as yourself and you should be able to see everything on the other computer

Two machines using syncing to one database.

We're in development/eval for 7.0 Portal right now, and every time we sync to another
machine the other machine(s) stop working and get "Null Portal Object" webflow
exception. Is there a way to have multiple people hitting one database? We're
thinking of letting each developer have her/his own BEA instance on her/his machine.
Steve

Steve,
There are two ways to solve the problem of which one I know is described in
the developers guide:
1. Each developer should have his own enterprise application (e.g.
developer1_app, developer2_app). The synchronization works by the
enterprise id and I believe it's immediately propogated to the in-memory
repository even when the developer is on another workstation. Separating
the namespace by enterprise application name will solve that.
2. Create separate database instances. This is the approach we took and
it works fine. Everybody datasyncs in private now against the same
<application-project> directory stored in our CMS.
Hope that helps,
Wayne

Faisal,
You may already have resolved this issue but just in case you
are still getting problems, here is some info that may help.
I faced the same problems with Oracle Developer 6 and Personal
Oracle 7.3.3. Oracle Developer 6 uses Net8 to connect to the db
whereas Personal Oracle 7 uses SQL*Net, hence the TNS problems
you have been getting.
There is a solution. Oracle Support suggested that you had to
have a listener running in order for the connection to work. To
do this you needed to instal the SQL*Net Add-Ons from the
Personal Oracle CD, configure TNSNAMES.ora to point to a dummy
IP address and start the listener. When I tried this I
discovered that you don't infact need amend the TNSNAMES.ora
file or run up the listener. As long as the SQL*Net add-ons are
installed, the connection from Oracle Developer 6 to Personal
Oracle 7 seems to work.
Hope this is of some help.
