Cretaion of UTL.File in Oracle 10G and directory entry in Ora.ini file

Hi,
Kindly advise me if:
(!) we can create a directory and log file in this directory on some other server instead of creating it in the file system of the server where the Oracle 10G database is residing?
Created directory in Oracle using create or replace directory command.
My package will be creating a log file using UTL.File in the above directory.
I want to create this directory on some other server to save my log file/s. Is this possible?
(2) Also, let me know in Oracle 10G, do we need to add the directory entry (mention above in #1) in the Ora.ini file on the Oracle 10G server?

Hi,
1) utl_dir are different from directory object
2) you cannot create directory on remote server and there is no need to write directory entry on oracle init file (not ini..)

  • How import 10g,11g dump file in oracle 9 and oracle 8

    Dear all
    I import dump file exported from oracle 9 to oracle 10g and 11g now i want exported dump file from oracle 10g/11g to import in oracle 9 (lower version).
    How said job will be done.
    Thanks

    I've already tried your method, but it fails when you import the dmp exported from lower version.
    To import Oracle 11g user to Oracle 10g, the following method works fine:
    It is assumed that both 11g and 10g servers are on same LAN.
    Make sure that 11g sqlplus connects to your 10g server.
    Step 1. Export the 11g user from 11g machine.
    Step 2.Import the dmp file created in step 1 into 10g server from 11g machine itself.
    The 11g exp/import utility should be used for both export and import operations.
    Only source and destination servers will be different.

  • How to create a single executable file in oracle 10g

    hi all
    i am a fairly new user to oracle. i would like to know if there is any way that i can compile both the database and forms that i have created, using the oracle 10g developer suite, into a single executable file and be able to install it on another system without installing the development environment?
    can anyone please help
    thanks in advance

    Hi there
    The forum software was upgraded a few months back and many links to older content were lost.
    There are possibly a few different things you need to do. First, click Project > Skin > Borders tab and DE-select the "Show Borders" check box. That will eliminate the _skin.SWF from the mix. If you have full motion clips you may need to take other steps.
    Also note that while turning off the borders eliminates the _skin.SWF, it also has the side effect of coaxing the the playback controls up onto the main part of the presentation. If you don't like this, you need to resize the movie to make room for the playback controls to be placed into its own area.
    Cheers... Rick

  • External table in Oracle 10g and Windows server 2003 problem

    I'm having a problem accessing an external table in an Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 server environment. The disk is remote (mapped) to the server. It's the usual access errors, kup-04001 or kup-04063.
    I have the [seemingly] exact same setup in an Oracle 9i and Windows 2000 server environment which works perfectly. Services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    In the Oracle 10g and Windows 2003 environment, services run as local SYSTEM and SYSTEM has full permissions on the mapped disk. Directories exist and so do the permissions to the directories.
    This obviously effects mappings, deployments, etc.
    Does anyone know if something changed in either the db or the os?
    Thank you,
    Michael

    Thank you for your reply.
    Your proposal is the standard solution. As a matter of fact, that's how it is on my "old" system. Server "A" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM. Server "B" Oracle services are started by SYSTEM and is where the flat files reside. SYSTEM has full permissions on a disk local to Server "B". Database directoriies defined on Server "A" point to Server "B" remote disk. External Tables on Server "A" are defined with directories that point to Server "B" remote (mapped) disk. I have no problems with this configuration.
    I'm having a problem acheiving the same configuration with Oracle 10g and Windows 2003. I guess I'm baffled over the fact it isn't working the same way as my "old" environment. Why shouldn't it? Oracle (and you) want me to start services as a specific user. It shouldn't have to be that way unless something changed in the way the database makes calls to the os or if Microsoft slipped something in with one of it's numerous security patches.

  • XML SCHEMA registration for XML TYPE (storing XML files in Oracle 10g)

    I have created the XML Schema for the XML file stored in Oracle 10g and also added this Schema into the database. I have related that schema with the column in the table which contains the XML file. When i execute the query to fetch the data from the stored file i am getting a blank resultset. Is registering the XML Schema is necessary, if yes then please let me know the process of doing it. I have tried following steps to register Schema, but it is not working
    Step1:

  • Oracle 10G and SGA

    Hi,
    i've a question about Oracle 10G and their SGA. When I do in SQLplus show sga, I get for example:
    SQL> show sga
    Total System Global Area 167772160 bytes
    Fixed Size 1247900 bytes
    Variable Size 58721636 bytes
    Database Buffers 104857600 bytes
    Redo Buffers 2945024 bytes
    when finding other parameter I get always '0', this was not in other releases...
    SQL> show parameter pool
    shared_pool_size big integer 0
    java_pool_size big integer 0
    large_pool_size big integer 0
    olap_page_pool_size big integer 0
    SQL> show parameter db_cache
    NAME TYPE VALUE
    db_cache_advice string ON
    db_cache_size big integer 0
    It seems that I have no control over setting those parameters, I remember at installation time it gave a % of the pc memory would be used, has it something to do with that? Can you chose between the automatic SGA-management and setting it by yourself?
    thanks

                    (ADDRESS_LIST =
                          (ADDRESS =

  • Connect Oracle 10g and OWB to SQL Server 2005 in Windows XP

    I am unable to create a working connection between Oracle 10g and a SQL Server database. I have followed the instructions in several sources, but when I attempt to connect to the MSSQL database through SQL Plus or SQL Developer, I get the ORA-03135 error. I set up a non-Oracle location in OWB and the connection test was successful but the metadata would not import. Creating an Oracle location with the same parameters produced the ORA-03135 error.
    In TNSNAMES.ORA I placed the following definition:
    MSSQL =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = wgilt1.hsd1.nj.comcast.net)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = MSSQL)
         (HS = OK)
    In LISTENER.ORA I placed the following in the SID_LIST_LISTENER:
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME = MSSQL)
    (ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_2)
    (PROGRAM = hsodbc)
    The inimssql.ora file contains the following:
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MSSQL
    HS_DB_NAME = MSSQL
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
    HS_FDS_TRACE_FILE_NAME = c:\hs_fds_mssql.log
    What is missing?

    could be a copy paste issue, but please make sure the tnsnames.ora has at least on space in from of each line after the alias.
    In addition what is the listener status? Please post the output of lsnrctl status <listener name>.
    Need to know also the output of: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_2\bin\hsodbc

  • How to access MYSQL from Oracle 10g and vice versa

    I will like to know how do I create a database link between Oracle 10g and MYSQL database on windows.  I have been saddled with responsibility of ensuring the communications between the 2 databases and I have searched everywhere on google, I could not find anywhere where this is explain explicitly and made work.
    THank you

    In general Oracle offers 2 different products to connect from an Oracle database to a MS SQL Server. The first product is for free and it is called
    As DG4ODBC is a generic connectivity based on ODBC it allows you to connect to many foreign databases as long as you have a suitable ODBC driver.It for example allows you to read from text files but also connect to foreign databases like MS SQL Server or IBM DB2. Due to this wide variety of foreign data sources tha capabilities of DG4ODBC are very limited. It only supports a few Oracle functions that it can directly map to foreign database equivalents. All other functions will be post processed. Post processing means that ALL records from the foreign table(s) will be fetched into the Oracle database and the result is then processed locally - so depending on the amount of data stored in the foreign database it might take a while.
    To be complete here some notes to follow up:
    This Oracle support note describes possible options you have to connect to a foreign database:
    Document 233876.1 Options for Connecting to Foreign Data Stores and Non-Oracle Databases - For example - DB2, SQL*Server, Sybase, Informix, Teradata, MySQL
    So you see, to connect from Oracle to MySQL you need to use the Database gateway for ODBC release 11.2 (HSODBC which was shipped with 10g was desupported in march 2008).
    The Database Gateway for ODBC 11.2 (=DG4ODBC) license is included in the Oracle database license and it allows you to connect with a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver to a foreign database.
    For your MySQL connection you only need to download and configure the MySQL ODBC driver from the MySQL web site. Once you can connect with the ODBC driver you could then download and configure DG4ODBC.
    As you didn't post on which platform your Oracle database is installed, here 2 notes for common platforms:
    How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle (Doc ID 561033.1)

  • Will Oracle 10g and Oracle XE happily co-exist on same machine?

    I can't seem to find anything specifically saying that Oracle 10g and Oracle XE can be installed on the same Windows machine. The only reason I'd want to do this is that I originally had the free version on my Windows machine. The uninstaller nevers seems to run a complete job and always leaves bits over. So I'd like to install Oracle 10g alongside Oracle XE.
    Wondered if anybody had done this already?

    to uninstall Oracle, do the following:
    1. Uninstall all Oracle components using the Oracle Universal Installer (OUI).
    2. Run regedit.exe and delete the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ORACLE key. This contains registry entires for all Oracle products.
    Delete any references to Oracle services left behind in the following part of the registry:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEM/CurrentControlSet/Services/Ora*
    It should be pretty obvious which ones relate to Oracle.
    4. Reboot your machine.
    5. Delete the "C:\Oracle" directory, or whatever directory is your ORACLE_BASE.
    6. Delete the "C:\Program Files\Oracle" directory.
    7. Empty the contents of your "c:\temp" directory.
    8. Empty your recycle bin.
    At this point your machine will be as clean of Oracle components as it can be.
    Remember, manually editing your registry can be very destructive and force an OS reinstall so only do it as a last resort.

  • Important differences between oracle 10g and 11g

    Hi friends, can anyone tell me (pointwise) what are the major (and minor) differences between Oracle 10g and 11g.
    Please point me to some documents if possible.
    Thanks in advance

    The name of the link says it all: "top_features."
    In short it is Oracle's list of what they have for marketing and sales reasons designated "top features."
    It is not intended to be, and is not, a complete list of features. Often the features Oracle does not
    talk about are the most important.
    Let me give you some examples. I have never seen Oracle announce DBMS_XPLAN as a new feature
    yet you should not run an explain plan without it. Neither have I ever seen Oracle announce the new
    NO_DATA_NEEDED predefined exception. I have listed literally hundreds of new features you will not
    find in Oracle's new features docs.
    I did a presentation at OpenWorld this year as part of the unconference titled "New Features in
    Database 11gR2 that Oracle will not announce." It was easy to prepare a one hour presentation with
    little fear of being proved incorrect. As I turned out only one of the features I presented was mentioned
    by Oracle.
