Converting between tables in an Oracle Lite Database

We have a standalone application that uses Oracle Lite. A requirement we have from a new customer is to use their Oracle Lite database structure or to come up with a mechanism that sends the data between the 2 different structures.
Both the structures reside in the same database.
Initial thoughts were to write triggers on both structures that convert the data or to use XML / XSL and treat them as seperate apps.
However, I'm wondering if there is a different way. Do Oracle provide any tools that can help with mapping between 2 different structures that hold the same domain data?
Anyone got any better ideas?
Cheers, Matt

How to create a table in Oracle Lite database?

Hi,
I have installed SOA 10.1.3 on my laptop. Now I am trying to create a table in the database to do some own examples. I have problem in installing oracle database. So I am trying to create a table in Oracle Lite database which comes with SOA suite. I am not able to do it, can some body suggest me please?
Regards
Khaleel

HI James,
Thank you so much. I am able to create table and insert rows and able to select them too. However I am not able to use these tables in my BPEL process for my practice. The DB adapter is throwing some error, any idea?

JDBC API ( JSR 169 ) Implementation for accessing oracle lite database

We are developing an application using IBM J9 (CDC and Foundation Profile) on Pocket PC 2003 environment with SWT as the front end development. We are using Oracle Lite 9i as the Client database.
We have sucessfully installed Oracle Lite and was able to create tables in the database.. however we could not find the JDBC API (java.sql and javax.sql packages which is JSR 169 JDBC 2.0/3.0) inorder to load the JDBC driver(OLITE40.jar) and access the oracle Lite Database on Pocket PC.
IBM J9 Micro Environement does not have this support.
I am wondering if Oracle provides this implementation.
If not is there a get around.
the client database is crucial to the application and i would really appreciate an answer to our problem.

Client Upgrade issue in Oracle Lite Database 10g 10.3.0.3.0

Hi all,
Details: My Environment is Oracle Database 11g R1(11.1.0.6.0) With Oracle Lite Database 10g R3(10.3.0.3.0) on Windows 2003 Server R2 SP2.
Recently i have upgrade my oracle lite database from 10.3.0.2.0 to 10.3.0.3.0 and also applied recent opatch (p12812978_103030_Generic.zip). Upgrade and installation of opatch got successfully completed. When i tried the client synchornization for the very first time (FCS and Data Download) FCS and Data Download got Successfully completed but the problem is usually Once the FCS and Data Download Got Completed , Screen goto webtogo home page but in my case i am getting a screen name called "client upgrade" with options yes or no if choose yes it prompting please wait screen nearly for 1 hours i am not getting any response from the screen. if choose no simply it goto my webtogo home page. Please Note before choosing the yes option i have checked what version i am currently having it show 10.3.0.3 i don't know why it asking for the client upgrade. Please Advice me on this how to avoid this screen (Client Upgrade).
Thanks
Shan

Hi,
i am not upgrading the existing environment of Oracle Lite Client i am creating a new environment which doesn't have the Oracle Lite Client. In the document itself they have mentioned like this "These steps assume that you have a 10g Release 1 or 2 Branch Office environment already configured and synchronized. If you do not have this environment currently configured, you do not need to upgrade." To be Clear What i am doing is with help Oracle Lite Branch Office i will be downloading a user from Mobile Server for that i have to do the following
1.FCS(Fresh Client Setup for that i have to run the setup.exe which is coming for Oracle Lite Branch Office) and
2.Data download (Data will be get download from Mobile Server in the form of odb),
3. Usually Once the FCS and Data Download got completed, the screen will goto the webtogo home there i can see my branch offlice applications.
4. But in my case i am getting prompted by screen and the screen name called "Client Upgrade" with options yes or no if i choose yes screen got hanged else if i choose no then only screen moving the webtogo home page. Say can u r having existing environment in your machine due to some reasons u have upgrade or u have installed optach on the mobile server in that case while doing the client synchronication we can do the client upgrade by running the update.exe becasue client side will having the old binary file we need to renew it.
5. But I am not upgrading the existing environment. I am creating a new environment which means i am doing a fresh client setup and synchronization for the very first time. While doing the FCS on my client side for the very first time i will be getting the latest binaries rite then why the screen is moving to client upgarde page i don't have any idea on this.
Please Advice.
Thanks

Error in Oracle Lite Database connection

Hi,
I have installed the Oracle Application server 10.1.3.1.0 on my laptop (basic installation).
I tried to define a database connection in the JDeveloper connection navigator to the Oracle lite database. When I test the connection I got an error:
"Internal Error:Invalid Connect String".
I have defined in the connection tab of the Edit database connection in the following way:
Driver class: oracle.lite.poljdbc.POLJDBCDriver
Library: OLite
Classpath: C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\bpel\lib\olite40.jar
URL: jdbc:polite4@localhost:100:orabpel
Could anyone tell me which user and password I should define for the oracle lite database which is delivered with Oracle Application server 10.1.3.1.0?

Hi,
Did you start the SOA suite on your workstation?
If so, can you reach the BPEL Console
if so, check via Enterprise Manager the connect string in the OC4J instance of BPEL (oc4j_soa -> administartion -> JDBC > conenctions, or data-sources.xml)
Copy the connect string into your OLite config if it works

Managing a single Oracle Lite database file

Hi,
I was wondering if there's the possibility of using a single database file of Oracle Lite just like it can be done with SQL Server CE. At the moment, I'm using the SQLCE driver of .NET to manipulate my SDF file (SQLCE database for Pocket PCs) without using a SQL SERVER Merge replication; however, I was trying to change my SQLCE database to an Oracle Lite database without using the whole replication thing. I've already installed the whole Oracle Lite 10g kit but it seems it's necessary to create some DNS (that I don't fully understand :S) and that's not what I'm looking for. I hope my explanation isn't that vague and ambiguous. Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
César C.

See Connection string and DSN
It appears that c:\windows\polite.ini c:\windows\odbc.ini need to be installed. odbc.ini must contain the DSN entry for your DB.
Note you can create/modify these files when you install you application that uses Oracle Lite. If you happen to have an application that dynamically creates the DB then you can reuse the one DSN entry for multiple DBs. Just provide the DB location in the connection string along with the DSN reference.
string dbpath = Path.Combine(
Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Windows.Forms.Application.ExecutablePath), "Oracle");
string constr = string.Format(@"DataDirectory={0};Database={1};DSN={2};uid=system;pwd=manager",
dbpath, DB, DSN);
OdbcConnection cn = new OdbcConnection(constr);

Oracle Lite database Standalone?

Is it possible to install Oracle Lite Database on a Laptop without installing any Mobile Server. We just need a good database management system for the client, we don't need a Mobile Server.
Maybe there are some other solutions from Oracle?!
Regards Robert

Oracle Lite requires an installed mobile server. The mobile server also requires a Oracle Database Standard (minimum). You need at least 5 oracle standard licences and 2 oracle lite licences (germany conditions).
The Oracle Lite IS NOT a standalone database! A normal Oracle Database Server (Standard or better) is required to hold the repository. Simply start the lite server on a client device and connect to the lite server on this device would be wishful... but it is impossible. So you cannot use your preferred IDE/RAD/DB tools directly against this "database".

Export table access to oracle with Database ODBC()

Hi,
I export a table, access 2003, ent_tab whit 'DataBase ODBC()' to oracle.
I open Oracle SQL Developer and i can show table ent_tab, but i go worksheet and execute:
select * from ent_tab
and display error: ORA-00942...
Why??!!
Regards
Jomar

Because ODBC created the table with "" which allowed lower case table name, but Oracle uses upper case table name by default. Suggest you recreate the table with upper-case name to avoid having to use "" in select statements.

Oracle lite database username and password

Hi,
I have a database file doe.odb and dsn is doe. When I tried connecting database using default system/manager userid/password I got following error:
pol-5150 access violation.
I used following command to connect to the database:
msql system/manager@jdbc:polite:doe
Actually I do not know the original userid and password used to create database. There are thounsands of records in the database file. The developer before me did not left any clue about userid and password.
Is there any way to connect this database?
Is there any way to recover userid and password?
Best Regards,
Wajih

The username is the username of the device user. So, lets say JOHN is your user and SAMPLEDB is your application, JOHN's password is TEST123. The connection would be
msql system/test123@jdbc:polite:john_sampledb
What materials have you gone through for Oracle Lite?

Locating user tables in an Oracle 11g database

Excuse my ignorance on this subject
But our company has an Oracle 11g database that drives one of our business applications. I am not an oracle admin and there is very little documentation on the application itself, however the application seems to have its own set of explicit login (username and password) credentials so I am guessing they are hashed somewhere in the database tables.
My question would be – are there any default oracle tables where user credentials would typically be? or tips on tracking down where the password hashes may be? Or can this differ from application to application? Any tips welcome. Apologies for the naivity of the question. My goal is to identify which database accounts can query the table the hashes are in, as we have some users who can access the database for data analysis purposes - but I dont want them to have access to the table.

My goal is to identify which database accounts can query the table the hashes are in, as we have some users who can access the database for data analysis purposes - but I dont want them to have access to the table.The information relative to the user accounts is revealed in the view DBA_USERS, which normal users should not have a need to see. However, the passwords are stored in a true hash. It cannot be used directly, and cannot be reversed. So being able to see the hashed password does not in itself constitute a security risk.
When a user is being authenticated, the procedure that oracle uses is NOT to 'decrypt' the stored password to see if it matches the password presented by the user. Rather, the password presented by the user is hashed, and that hash value is compared against the stored value.My concern was if they could extract those password hash values, there are many free password crackers where if they run dictionary values against those hash values and if any match they then have some passwords to gain perhaps elevated access in the application.Such a method would have to assume a password, know how oracle 'salts' the password, hash the result, then compare to the hashed values from the table. If you employ even a modicum of password complexity enforcement, I doubt that your developers are going to have access to the kind of computing capacity that would be required to get a positive result within your lifetime.
You need to do three things
First and foremost, adhere to the principle of 'least privilege'. Do not grant a user account any privileges that are not required for that account to complete it's business task. That includes access to any tables or views. Be wary of any "--ANY---" privileges.
Second, use the password complexity function to enforce a reasonable level of password complexity.
Third, Set the user's profile to expire the pasword after 'x' number of days and prevent the reuse of a password until after 'y' iterations.

Oracle apps configuration required to install oracle lite database

Hi,
Can any one suggest me the oracle apps setups and configuration required for installing the oracle lite databse in my laptop.
The olite databse must sink with my existing oracle apps.
thanks in advance...

user596857 wrote:
Dear Experts, (I'm far from expert, but I possess enough shreds of knowledge to answer your question, so here goes. ;-) )
1a)
My server has Oracle version 11.1.0.6.0, but the matrix says it wants 11.1.0.7.
I should get a warning right?
Can I just proceed with the install, over-riding the warning?
1b)
If so, what is the procedure to install into the existing database?
It wasn't obvious in the (150 page) install docs. The EBS install delivers its own ORACLE_HOME for the database. There isn't an option to install into an existing database as far I know. The installer will ask where to put the new ORACLE_HOME for the EBS database. You might get a warning if you try to install to a pre-existing ORACLE_HOME, and I don't recommend ignoring that warning. The result will either be ugly immediately or, even worse, ugly later when it's harder to figure out why. ;-)
Do an upgrade?Won't really help. The ORACLE_HOME that's bundled with the installer usually comes with additional patches pre-installed, as well as EBS-friendly configuration options. You're much better off taking what it gives you so you can get down to the real fun of learning EBS. :-)
Or, do regular install, but not Express/Rapid Install?I recommend doing a Vision install for learning EBS.
Can I choose not to install the database software?Nope (unless my memory is really that bad), and there's no real benefit to doing so. All you'd save is a couple GB of disk, and as a percentage of the total install footprint of EBS, the database ORACLE_HOME is relatively tiny.

Access Oracle Lite database on CE

Hi Eric,
Thank you for your help, but I have already tried using SLQplus
and Oracle Lite Navigator, and it works !
I have no problem accessing the POLite demo database (on my
windows CE) from my desktop. But the demo program REPSVR shipped
with Oracle Lite on CE doesn't work at all...
I've tried the 3 solutions : Disk File, HTTP, and OMA replication
but the only problem is that the program cannot access to the
database !
I'm sure that :
_HTTP, OMA and Disk File Replication work because I've tested it
fom a remote location on my network.
_the connection to the database server (an Oracle 8.0.5) works.
_The ODBC.INI is also well configured (by default with the DSN
POLite and the DSN CE pointing to the database POLite).
So the only reason possible is the connection to the local
database.
I was also unable to use the ODBINFO to test POLite...
I've carefully studied the doc, but no other procedure to test
the database is described...
It's very frustrating because I'm just one step before
succesfully validate Oracle Lite for Windows CE for my company !
If you have other ideas (other than going right into the code of
the REPSRV demo !!!), I woul greatly appreciated...
Thanks.
Hi Olivier,
There are a few things you can try. Connecting using ODBC is probably
the easiest way. You can either use sqlplus or the Oracle Lite Navigator
tool that comes with 8i Lite. Use a connect string of:
ODBC:CE
If you have more problems, you can try posting them on the Oracle 8i Lite
discussion group, located at
http://technet.oracle.com
Hope this helps,
Eric

Like : 1) check that all files are present

Thank you.null

If you are using OLite, you should use the OLite .NET provider:

Look at Chapter 6 and 11, which cover ADO.NET data access.

[pol-5150] access violation in oracle lite database

Hi,
I am trying to connect to oraesb schema and getting the following error.
[pol-5150] access violation.
\\msql system/manager@jdbc:polite:orabesb is also failing.
Basically I am trying to connect to SID oraesb in jdev.
can someone help me on this.

Hi Lalit,
I was also facing the same issue recently. However, I did some hit and trial and could finally resolve it.
Here is what I have done. Please verify if it is of any help to you.
Connection 1
=====================================================
Connection-> OliteESB
Connection Type-> Oracle lite
UserName->system
password->any
hostname->localhost
JDBCPort->1531
SID->oraesb
Driver class oracle.lite.poljdbc.PLOJDBCDriver
Classpath->C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\integration\esb\\lib\olite40.jar=====================================================
Connection 2
=====================================================
Connection-> OliteBPEL
Connection Type-> Oracle lite
UserName->system
password->manager
hostname->localhost
JDBCPort->1531
SID->orabpel
Driver class oracle.lite.poljdbc.PLOJDBCDriver
Classpath->C:\product\10.1.3.1\OracleAS_1\bpel\lib\olite40.jar
=====================================================
You can use any of the directory above for setting the classpath for olite40.jar.
If you create two connections as above it would take only one entry for the olite40.jar that was set most recently.
I think it has something to do with the password and SID for the username.
Thanks.

Creating table in oracle lite 10g

Hi,
I believe the following is the way to create a database table in Jdeveloper 10g and Oracle BPEL process Manager 10.1.3.1.0
1.Created bpel project--> right click project ---> create schema---> right click schema---> create table(completed the wizard and created schema and table)
2.Right click schema ---> new---> database tier---> offline database objects ----> SQL generated from offline database objects(and then complete the wizard)
If the above is the correct approach to create the table, then I am facing two situations.
a. In the project properties(offline database), if the 'database to emulate' is set to oracle lite 10g release 1, then "SQL generated from offline database objects" option is not enabled to choose in the step 2 above. So I cannot proceed further.
b. If the 'database to emulate' is set to oracle database 10g release 2 (this is default), "SQL generated from offline database objects" in step 2 is enabled, but in the wizard that follows, when I tick 'perform operation against the database' it asks me for oracle database connection settings. But I only have the Oracle 10g Lite version and not Oracle database 10g. So I am not able proceed further.
All I need is to create tables in the Oracle Lite database that I have.
Any help on this issue will be greatly appreciated.
