Could not connect to database using servlet

Hi,
i'm using oracle 8.1.5.0.0, tomcat 3.2.1, jdk1.2.2 to build an intranet application. I downloaded the classes12.zip and nls_charset12.zip from the oracle web site and install in the oracle\ora81\jdbc\lib directory.
when i tried to run the samples code provided by oracle, the program can run properly. but when i tried to run it in my own program using servlet, i got an error as follow:
java.sql.SQLException IoException:The Network Adapter could not establish a connection.
i have gone through the codes but could not found any errors that I made and now i'm run out of ideas on the error i get.
could someone please help me with this problem?
thank you.
regards,
Josephine

No, the web server requires no configuration. You do need to make sure that the classes12.zip file is in the Tomcat classpath - I believe the Tomcat startup script pulls in all the files in $TOMCAT_HOME/lib, so put the zip file there. I assume you had to change your hostname in the connection URL - what are the connection parameters you used in the Oracle samples? Were these samples Servlets, or command-line programs? Usually when you get the "Network Adapted could not establish a connection" error from the JDBC thin driver, it means that your hostname or port number or SID are wrong,or the database is not up.

1016: Could not connect to database - Oracle returned ORA-00257: archiver e

Dear buddies,
Receiving the above stated error.
Removed my old arch files to a different drive and now still getting the error.
How can I go about this.
Please advice.
Thanks!
Note: I am using Oracle 10g on a Windows platform
Edited by: user645399 on Jul 26, 2012 6:36 PM

After 1000+ posts you must understand that 10g is not a version number but a marketing label. This is what the error message says,
ORA-00257: archiver error. Connect internal only, until freed.
Cause: The archiver process received an error while trying to archive a redo log. If the problem is not resolved soon, the database will stop executing transactions. The most likely cause of this message is the destination device is out of space to store the redo log file.
Action: Check the archiver trace file for a detailed description of the problem. Also, verify that the device specified in the initialization parameter archive_log_dest is set up properly for archiving.If you have merely deleted the files using the o/s command, it won't update the Control File that those files are not available any more and the space mapped by them must be released. So you must use the RMAN's command crosscheck to confirm the deletion and mark the file's status as expired and then you would have to issue delete expired . Other than this, the only option would be to add more space to the destination where you are storing the archive logs.

Managed Server can not connect to Database

I have a WebLogic cluster with three managed Server on 3 different machines.
ManagedServer_1, ManagedServer_2, ManagedServer_3 (on Machine 3)
Firstly, everything is ok. But when we changed some configuration on Firewall and make the WebLogic cluster could not connect to database. 3 servers change status from Running to Warning. Then, we undo all the changes to the Firewall configuration. 3 Servers could connect to Database again but still in warning state.
It is strange that when I tried to restart ManagedServer_3. That server could not be up normally. It went to Admin state and all the datasources and connection pool could not be created. I tried to restart the machine 3 and start the server but it still failed to make server running normally.
( I made the test connecting to Database from Machine 3, everything is okie, I can got data from database, port 1521 opened )
Has anyone got the same problem and how to fix it? Is that the problem with the admin server?

JDBC DataSources/Connection pools are all at Domain Level. All we do is just target the datasources to AdminServer and Entire cluster (this will take care of all managed servers in the cluster). From Weblogic Console, TEST the data sources for any firewall issues. If this works from console, check from where you are accessing the Console like within the Firewall, that can access the database server. Even though the actual application is deployed only on cluster, still I would recommend targetting the datasources to both AdminServer and Cluster.

SSRS Database Configuration Manager Error - Could not connect to server: The type initializer for 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection' threw an exception

I'm Getting the "Could not connect to server: The type initializer for 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection' threw an exception" Error on an existing Instance of SSRS that had been working previously (lots of installs/patches since).
Any time I try to hit the "Test Connection" button on existing connections or create new ones from the SSRS Config Mgr., it throws that error.
I know the SQL Server connectivity works (I have SSMS installed on there and can cut and paste server Login to connect). The problem is I can't really get any more details on the error...Event Viewer isn't logging anything, I have upped the trace level
to 4 in the reportingservicesservice.config file, I have even watched it with procmon and nothing obvious pops up.
Let me know if anyone else has been down this path and what they have tried.

Hi BillOlive,
Based on my research, the issue may be related to user access permission. You can refer to the following method to troubleshooting the issue:
Open C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG folder | right click on the machine.config file | Properties | Security | make sure your domain account has FULL CONTROL permission on this file.
If above steps still do not work, please backup your machine.config file to somewhere else and replace with the attached one from my Windows Server 2008 environment.
Alternatively, app.config file also may cause the same issue. There is a similar issue, you can refer to it.

Could not connect to Oracle database. (HY000): BI Answers Problem

Hi,
I am using OBIEE 11g and 11g admin client tool is installed in my machine. I created one rpd and I deploy that rpd in the server through Enterprise manager fusion middleware control. But when try to run the analysis from BI answers it throws and error like
"TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at OCI call OCIServerAttach. [nQSError: 17014] Could not connect to Oracle database. (HY000)".
In the rpd I use OCI default (10g/11g) and cheked that connection is successful and also when I click on view data option in the physical layer I am able to see the data. I cheked with DBAs and correct TNS entries are also there in the server. Could not understand where is the problem.
Please help.
Thanks
Titas

Try like this
Call Interface: Default (OCI 10g/11g)
Data source Name->localhost:1521/XE
BTW: Whats the client bit version 32/64 bit, if you have 64bit and above is not working try with Oracle client 32bit.
Pls mark correct/helpful if helps

Thanks,

The problem is OBIEE server not able to read the tnsnames.ora file. That depends upon the what you set as ORACLE_HOME. that can be find with tnsping command at command line. Follow this article about setting up oracle home and oci drivers
http://oraclebizint.wordpress.com/2007/10/03/oracle-bi-ee-101332-identifying-oracle-homes-for-oci-drivers/
please make sure that your DB-home is the first entry in your PATH environment variable.
Have you created TNS_ADMIN environment variable. Create a environment variable TNS_ADMIN which maps to location where tnsnames.ora file located.
let me know if you are not able to load after this steps.

"Could not connect to the ConfigMgr site database" problem with SCCM

The scenario is:
- SCCM 2007 SP1 installed on one server
- SQL 2008 installed on the other server
- Console was also installed on the SCCM server.
Everything was working just fine for about three months. As of few days ago, out of nowhere, I cannot open the console at all, it gives me this error:
" The ConfigMgr console could not connect to the ConfigMgr site database. Verify that this computer has network connectivity to the SMS Provider computer and that your user account has Remote Activation permissions on both
the ConfigMgr site server and SMS Provider computers. For more information, see "How to Configure DCOM Permissions for Configuration Manager Console Connections" in ConfigMgr Help. "
I confirmed all permissions (DCOM) and group settings (SMS Admin) and everything looks fine. I also noticed one other thing and I have a feeling its related - I log on to SCCM server and then from there I try to start RDP
connection to SQL server. I can connect, but as soon as I move the mouse or try clicking somewhere it breaks the connection and the "Trying to re-connect" window appears. It can`t establish normal RDP connection. If I try from any other server to SQL, it works
fine...
Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Opca could not connect to the specified database

I have both Oracle 9.2 database and Oracle 9iAS R2 Standard Edition installed in my same home pc. The origin database name is FIRST and the listener port is 1526.
My pc's host name is mypc.chen.com and the IP address in my local LAN is 192.168.0.1. I have no DNS server.
In "hosts" file I added a line: 192.168.0.1 mypc.chen.com
While running opca to install Portal, I entered password of SYS login of database FIRST and connection string "mypc.chen.com:1526:first". I got error message saying "could not connect to the specified database".
In Net8 Assistant local Profile, the naming method was HOSTNAME. But I got the same error message when I change it to TNSNAMES.
Please if anyone can help.
Thanks a lot.

Could not connect to the database

I have installed Oracle 11.5.10.2 and ADI 7.1.3.10.5
I can logon to oracle 11i but I cannot logon to ADI using the same username and password of oracle 11i.
In the ADI define databases form I have the following:
GWYUID: applsyspub/pub
FNDNAM: apps
NCA Connection: (blank)
Server ID: (blank)
I receive the following message:
''Could not connect to the database. Invalid Username or Password''
I can use tnsping and tnsping80 successfully from the client.
Any help would be appreciated
Thank you.

Starting from 11.5.10 and above, you have to provide the 'Server ID'. Change the current value of 'Server ID' to match APPL_SERVER_ID value found in your dbc file.
Find the dbc file under:
$FND_TOP/secure directory
The Server ID field is one of the parameters used in setting up the database definition in ADI.
