Creating a service ; What needs to be added to tnsnames.ora and JDBC url?

DB version: 11.2.0.2
OS platform : Solaris 10
We have a 2 node RAC.
DB name   = mbsprd
Instance1 = mbsprd1
Instance2 = mbsprd2I want Instance 1 (mbsprd1) to be used for our OLTP application and Instance 2 (mbsprd2) to be used for another application of DSS nature.
Based on the syntax
srvctl add service -d <dbname> -s <ServiceName> -r <Preferred Instance> -a <Available Instance>I am going to create 2 services
-- Creating a service called OLTP
srvctl add service -d mbsprd -s OLTP -r mbsprd1 -a mbsprd2-- Creating a service called DSS
srvctl add service -d mbsprd -s DSS -r mbsprd2 -a mbsprd1-- Starting the services
srvctl start service -d mbsprd -s OLTP
srvctl start service -d mbsprd -s DSSI guess the above steps are enough to configure a service at the server side.
I would like to know what needs to be done at the client side.
Currently the tnsnames.ora file and JDBC url used by our clients are shown below. What needs to be added to tnsnames.ora file and jdbc URL to start using services configured above?

What should have in equal tnsnames,ora and listener.ora?

Hi forum members again I'm very new in oracle, and I'm trying to create a sucessfull net service name, using oracle net configuration assitant, but when I try to test it I got this error, .***"""ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor."""*** And I have read that tnsnames.ora and listener.ora should have some parameters in common, but exactly I don't know, Do you know what parameters should be? or The ORA-12514 problem , doesn't have relation with the tnsnames.ora and listener files?, If doesn't wich is the reason of this message?

Thanks in advance

OK, here we go ... extra long as I intend to bookmark this and make reference, as this is a very common question ... skip to the bottom if you want my guess to the solution.
Oracle Net Services (formerly SQL*Net, Net8, Oracle Networking) has two parts - the client and the server side. I'll discuss the server first, then the client.
1) Server, and specifically Listener:
The Oracle Listener is a monitor that listens for Oracle service requests on one or more ports. Usually this is on TCP/IP port 1521. When it gets an Oracle request from any network client, it checks whether it's in the list of Oracle Services for which it is monitoring. If found, it will contact that service, request a connection for the client, tell the service and client where and how to connect, and get itself out of the loop.
Notes:
a) It can listen on behalf of any number of services;
b) A service can be a database instance, an EPG service (the DBMS_EPG is the replacement for Apache in the database in 10gR2), an external job, etc;
c) One listener can listen on behalf of multiple database instances;
d) The services can be listed in the LISTENER.ORA or they can self-register;
e) If databases self-register, they use the initialization parameter LOCAL_LISTENER
f) If self-registering, the listener should be up before the database
g) Shutting down the listener will stop future connections, but has no impact on existing ones.
One frequent point of confusion - a connection request on the local machine may loop out to the network and contact the listener, or it may bypass the listener entirely and use a bequeath adapter. The 'beq' connection is the 'normal' connection by "sqlplus / as sysdba" or "sqlplus system/manager" on the local machine (note that no @instance was used ... in *nix, that is derived from the $ORACLE_SID environment variable)
In your listener.ora, you specify global_dbname=oracle.gentoo and sid_name=oracle. I assume therefore you can find an initoracle.ora or spfileoracle.ora somewhere on your system.
2) Client:
A client that wants to connect to an Oracle service uses the client side of the Oracle Net Services. The definition of client includes: any Oracle client utiltiy (SQLPlus, SQLLoad, Forms, Reports, etc.); an Oracle database instance that wants to make a external procedure call or a dblink; third party tools such as ODBC and JDBC.
In SQL*Net version 1 the connection was made by specifying the target in the connect string ("user/password@host:listener_port:sid") and that is also used these days by many JDBC drivers, especially the Oracle Thin JDBC driver. Oracle's Easy connection mechanism uses a similar variant.
Since SQL*Net Version 2, Oracle has supported the concept of alias translation. Basically it's very similar in concept to DNS - give it the name of the service and tell it where to find the translation table. The translation tables include TNSNAMES.ORA, ONAMES servers (deprecated in 10g), LDAP usng Oracle's OiD. The choice of translation table, and alternate order if the lookup fails in one, is stored in the SQLNET.ORA (if one exists).
Assuming TNSNAMES.ORA, the chain of events is:
- get the alias to look up (in your case NORACLE);
- if the SQLNET.ORA has a DEFAULT_DOMAIN setting, (often =WORLD) append a dot and that value to the alias;
- go to the TNANSMES.ORA file pointed by the TNS_ADMIN variable (environment or registry), or (if not set) the one in the $ORACLE_HOME/network/admin directory;
- look up the first occurance of the alias;
- if found, use the protocol specified to request a connection to the host, usin DNS to unravel the host to an IP address if necessary (in your case TCP/IP, to TUX) ;
- if host connection if made, connect to the listener that is configured for that port (in your case 1521);
- if listener is there, ask it for connection to the service (in your case, you are asking for instance 'noracle');
i if the listener knowwss about the service, it will hand off the request.
Your problem appears to be asking for instance 'noracle' in the tnsnames but listeneing for 'oracle' at the listener. Of course, I can not see any auto-registered instances which you would get from "lsnrctl status" on the server.

Problem with user services (creating a service for mpdas)

Hi, I'm using mpd and using a user service to start it.
However, I'm trying to create a service for mpdas (a mpd client for last.fm) and getting some errors:
currently, my mpdas.service is as following:
[Unit]
Description=AudoScrobbler client for MPD
After=mpd.service
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/mpdas
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
Which giving me the following errors:
(14:49:55) [ERROR] You are not root. Not changing user ..
(14:49:55) [INFO] Connected to MPD.
(14:49:56) [INFO] Last.fm handshake successful. SessionID: ...
terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::ios_base::failure'
what(): basic_filebuf::underflow error reading the file
Aborted
Which are the same errors I get if I run just "mpdas" instead of running it with sudo.
If I use it as a root service (instead of a user service) it fails on startup, but works fine when I restart the server.
So, I'm assuming:
1) mpdas needs root permission
2) if used as a root service, it fails at startup cause the mpd service (enabled as a user service) hasn't started yet
3) if used as a user service, it fails cause it needs root permission
What's the 'correct' way to solve this? (I believe mpdas should be a user service, cause it runs with a config that is just for my user).
Is there a way to make a user service run with root privileges?
I couldn't figure out the best way to configure it.

TheSaint wrote:Why should it fails with sudo?
It works only with sudo. It was failing as a system service because it needs mpd, which I configured as an user service. Then when systemd starts the system services (when booting) there's not mpd instance running and it fails.
TheSaint wrote:Doesn't it works with fakeroot ?
As a noob, I don't know exactly how fakeroot works, I'll take a better look at it, but running it with fakeroot takes rid of the errors I was getting when not running as sudo.
The problem I have now is that it still fails on startup, but there isn't any helpful (or unhelpful) message. It just shows the PID and says it failed.
If I run
systemctl --user start mpdas
it works well though. Any ideas of why this happens?
My current unit file looks like this:
[Unit]
Description=AudoScrobbler client for MPD
After=mpd.service
Requires=mpd.service
[Service]
ExecStart=/usr/bin/fakeroot /usr/bin/mpdas
[Install]
WantedBy=default.target
Raynman wrote:Why does it need root privileges? Maybe you just need to configure it properly to run under your normal user?
Seeing the options in the man page and the config options for the config file, I don't see any that could do the trick.
I'll send a message to the developer with the error I'm getting (when not running as sudo).

How do I create a service mark in Dreamweaver?

I need to create a service mark in Dreamweaver. I checked the
knowledgebase and character maps; I could only find copyright, TM,

If there isn't a keyboard shortcut, how do you create
superscript in Dreamweaver? I tried the <sup> tag, which is
used for the aforementioned characters.
Any suggestions? Tips? Tricks? :^))

I Am Begging for URGENT ASSISTANCE Using Create Booklet Service for Pages

I work for a Church; I prepare numerous bulletins weekly and while I am tickled to learn of Create Booklet Service, I need to know why in the "tutorial" of Create Booklet Service it says that when I am in the PRINT menu, and click on PDF at the bottom, I will have the option to click on "create booklet" ??? NOT ON MY SCREEN? I also have a problem with how tiny the print turns out when I was experimenting with this program, no matter how I changed the font size, OR INCREASED the size (on the navigation on the right of the screen) It still prints very tiny which will not work for many of our "mature members" HELP on this please!
May I please impose on 2 other small questions that are driving me nuts (I am converting from a lifelong PC user to Mac--which I adore) HOW DO I BACK UP to the last "motion or keystroke I made?" on the PC up on the top left is a circle with an arrow which will take me back "one task, if you will" I cannot figure out how to do this on the mac
ALSO
when I am working in Pages and I am adjusting text that I am typing ; on the PC, if I want to "bring a sentence that is divided between to lines" up together to join them; I could simply hit DELETE and the spaces would continue deleting until my broken sentence was joined onto one line? This does not happen on the MAC the DELETE Key simply deletes back.
ONE MORE QUESTION:
Why when I am copying and pasting a document from the PC to the MAC (trying to convert all my weekly projects from the PC to the MAC) the clip art, photos etc do not copy with the text? Very frustrating in the conversion process.
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU to anyone and everyone that can or chooses to assist me. I have spent countless hours and weeks just to finally discover Create Booklet Service TODAY!
Blessings
Patti

I thank you for your time and information; NO! I did not know that Create Booklet produces the booklet 1/2 the size of my pages document; so that was very helpful information. I have tried probably 2 dozen times to print this pages doc into a booklet for our Church bulletin and NOTHING works! I am so beside myself because time is minimal here; so many disruptions from phones ringing to people coming in. I stayed late many nights and come in early and I still cannot figure this out; I am not a computer genius but I am not stupid either! When I have my document prepared in Pages, do I then go to Page Set UP? or straight to Print?
I want to print a 2 sided document that has 12 pages (3 --2 sided legal sheets of paper in readable format) do I choose: legal small? legal ? A4? do I manipulate the % it shows that will print?
do I change the icon that reads portrait, to landscape?
I wish someone could tell me step by step what to do in print set up and print to have this print out so its equal to a 11pt font in Georgia font and the headings I use are bold and 12 pt. (or at least that is how I have been doing it in the PC for several years) I thank you for the reference on the book; time is just not on my side right now to find the book, and read it. It might sound like the lazy way? That is not my intention; I just need efficiency LOL! IF someone could only sit here with me and show me exactly how to set this up to print a legal size (8..5 x 14") 2 sided bulletin that I then fold and put into a cover...I would be thrilled beyond words! Peace my friend from Sweden! Many hugs
Patti
You can if you have installed the Create Booklet Service in a service folder you can either first Export the Pages document to PDF or you print to PDF directly and choose Create Booklet.
When you create the document have have already chosen which paper size to use. I use A4 but my guess is that you are american and uses legal. i don't think you should manipulate the %.
You don't have to bother your brain with landscape or portrait format. That will the application do.
If you find that the text is too small for your readers create a document with lets say font in 14 or 16 points.

What needs to be changed if we change hostname in linux

Dear all,
I have a question and will appreciate for appropriate answer(s).
My machine name was lxcms120.cern.ch and Oracle 10g DB was running fine on it (listener, DB, Enterprise Manager). It is not a production system rather a test system.
Now, i changed its name to docms11.cern.ch
I change hostname in listener.ora & tnsnames.ora and listener started successfully.
I started db from sqlplus and it started without any complaints.
Now, when i tried to start Enterprise Manager (emctl start dbconsole), it didn't and return this error.
OC4J Configuration issue. /localscratch/orahome/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_docms11.cern.ch_oralxcms120 not found.
Now, i know that when the machine name was initially lxcms120, it was /localscratch/orahome/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/oc4j/j2ee/OC4J_DBConsole_lxcms120.cern.ch_oralxcms120
and if i go to that directory, i could see OC4J_DBConsole_lxcms120.cern.ch_oralxcms120 but of course there is no OC4J_DBConsole_docms11.cern.ch_oralxcms120
My dbname instance is oralxcms120 and has nothing to do with hostname.
So, what is the solution to the problem. Moreover, are there any steps to do while changing hostname of the oracle database like in my case which i can follow to make all required changes.
Best regards,
Anjum

You will need to do a little more than just directory rename,
From Oracle document,When the database host name (including the domain name) or the IP address changes, deconfigure and then reconfigure the Database Console with the repository create command. Run the following command:
emca -deconfig dbcontrol db -repos drop
emca -config dbcontrol db -repos create
or
emca -deconfig dbcontrol db
emca -config dbcontrol db -repos recreate

DNS vs. Oracle Name Service vs. tnsnames.ora

Can anyone shed some light on this?
I heard that Oracle is going toward a DNS solution and going away from
tnsnames.ora and the Oracle Naming Service. Is this true?
We are looking to place a naming solution in our environment and I want to
know which direction to head in. Also, if possible, I would like users to
only see the databases they need to see, which is the main problem we have
right now using a global tnsnames.ora file. Limiting users' views to only
what they have a business need to see is an important step in many steps to
secure the environment. I don't see how this would be accomplished using
DNS.
Comments?
Thanks,
Paul

Because of your sqlnet.ora (In the same directoty than the the tnsnames.ora).
In this parameter file, you find the "NAMES.DEFAULT_DOMAIN" (Default value = world) wich is used by Oracle to complete your input.
The default value "World" is also in the sample init/pfile as the default domain.

ODBC Driver needs TNSNAMES.ORA unlike MS Driver which allows full qualified connect?

We are looking at moving from using the MS ODBC/OLEDB providers for Oracle (contained in MDAC 2.7) to Oracle's own 8i/9i ODBC driver & OLEDB provider (because we need UNICODE support, which is lacking in the MS drivers).
For our 3-tier application, we build fully qualified ODBC/OLEDB dynamic connection strings at run-time (for DB2, ORACLE and SQL_SERVER) and pass these connections string around between tiers of our app. Provided the client PC has the basic connectivity for the necessary RDBMS platform, the connection string works.
The MS Drivers for ORACLE enable you to specify a fully qualified string in the SERVER argument like so:
SERVER=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(COMMUNITY=tcp.world)(PROTOCOL=TCP)(Host=<HostName>)(Port=<PortNumber>))(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=<SID>)))
So does the ORACLE OLEDB provider.
However, I can't get the ORACLE ODBC driver (9.0.0) driver to accept this using the DBQ argument (the equivalent of SERVER=). I can only get it to work if I make an entry in TNSNAMES.ORA and then say DBQ=<TNSNAMES.ORA Alias>, which is useless to us because of our "dynamic" requirements; we can't go around to every client in advance and update the TNSNAMES.ORA file because we do not which clients will want to access which database, or when.
Has anybody managed to get fully qualified TNS strings to work with the 8i/9i Oracle driver?
Alastair

My understanding from looking into this a while ago was that this used to work, but stopped working in some version of the driver. If you search this forum, I'm reasonably sure there will be a thread on this that goes into more detail than I currently remember.
I don't recall whether the most recent version of the Oracle ODBC driver fixes this bug. I would strongly suggest downloading an updated driver from OTN to test for yourself. If this is still a bug in the most recent version of the driver, there ought to be a TAR opened in Metalink on it. Someone may have posted a workaround or an estimate of when this bug will be fixed.

Created a PDF and added sticky notes, saved and emailed for review, recipient could not see or read the sticky notes. What needs to be done for my sticky notes to be seen and read when emailed. Thanks

I scanned a map and printed to create a PDF document, at that point I added sticky notes of different locations with notes of descriptions, saved and email to client for review.
Client received email but when he opened the attachment, all he could see was the map and none of my sticky notes.
What needs to be done so the recipient can see my sticky notes and read the descriptions for each sticky note?

Hey roy,
Could you please tell me what is your Acrobat version?
Please ensure that recipient downloads the PDF and uses either Adobe Acrobat or Reader to open the sticky notes.

What is the use of creating proxy services using WSDL.

Hi
Am a beginner in ALSB and i have a basic question. Business services are created using WSDL,thats sounds logical as we need to invoke the actual backend services .
Proxy services are connected to business services and what is the need that it can be e created using WSDL.
What is the use of creating proxy services using WSDL.

Hi,
I beleive you are confused because of the apparent inclusion of transport information in WSDL (that is the host:port/endpoint where the service is hosted). However, if you refer to the w3c specification of WSDL1.0 ([url http://www.w3.org/TR/wsdl]www.w3.org/TR/wsdl), you will find that WSDL has three separate sections:
1. The schema information that describes data element(s): specified in types
2. The message information ie message and port sections that specify the parameters and the operations
3. The service section that specify the actual protocol and endpoint binding.
Ideally, a WSDL can be broken down into these three separate components. Any WSDL containing the first two is called an abstract WSDL and is used for a top-down approcah for web services, and if the third part is used, then you get a concrete WSDL, containing invocation end-point also.
Comming back to your question one can typically use an Abstract WSDL for creating proxy service. This way, the service requester and integration can go on two separate threads where the common denominator or agreement between these two parties in terms of operation name and data element are imposed using the WSDL.
Thanks and Regards

So it sounds like you want to create a form. There are really two approaches, either Acrobat (AcroForm) or LiveCycle Designer (XFA form). LiveCycle Designer comes with Acrobat Pro, but it's an entirely separate application.
For an AcroForm, you'd create the underlying document in a page layout program (e.g., InDesign), word processor, or some other software and convert to PDF. Then in Acrobat you;d add the interactive form fields and any scripting you want. You can also add other types of interactive elements such as links, bookmarks, multimedia, etc. You can add a button which when clicked initiates an email with the filled-in form attached of submits to a web server.
For an XFA form, you'd normally create the entire document in LiveCycle Designer, particularly for a dynamic forms. There's a lot that PDF has to offer that's not available with XFA forms, but XFA forms can do things AcroForms can't. For a good discussion of the important differences between the two types of forms, see the following article: http://acrobatusers.com/blogs/thomp/so-what-difference-between-acroforms-and-xfa
For a form that needs to be saved with Adobe Reader, the document needs to be Reader-enabled. When such a document is opened in Reader, it will unlock certain functionality that Reader does not have otherwise, such as commenting, signing digital signature fields, and most important saving. But when a document has been extended this way with Acrobat, there are licesning restrictions. In short, if you distribute an enabled document to more than 500 recipients, you are allowed to use data from no more than 500 forms that have been returned to you, including hard copied. If fewer than 500 recipients, there is no such limit.
