Databases for ODBC on linux/unix

will these commands work on both linux and unix or just unix?
gunzip < mysql-xxxx.tar.gz | tar xvf -
./configure with-apache=/path/to/apache/dir with-mysql=/usr/local/mysql

I would give it a try all of the commands you listed exist on my redhat box ie. tar, gunzip, ./configure.
but when you are untarring you can type:
tar -zxvf xxx.tar
and it will untar and unzip it for you.
what program are you trying to install?

  • Conn between progress 9.1d database(winnt) and Oracle 9.2 on linux/unix

    Hai,
    Iam new to this situation.
    Where i have to establish a connection between
    Prograss Database 9.1D and Oracle on linux/unix.
    For i gone through metalink documents.
    There is procedure like Hetrogenious Services.
    But my question is.
    Is this HSODBC will be installed along with Oracle EE or we have to install.
    If installed how to check that service.
    And to connect to Progress Database we need ODBC drivers for linux.
    I couldn't find from Data-Direct technologies site.If any one know about the link please help me.
    If any one gone through this please tell me the procedure how to over come from this.
    Regards

    If the matrix says "Oracle 9.2.0.5 through Oracle 11.1.0.6.0, 11.2.0.1.0" then that means Oracle 10.2.0.x will be supported.
    It says you need the installer patch if "To use Oracle database 11.2.0.1.0 for any product, you must apply the EPM System Installer patch 11.1.1.3.05. "
    If you are using 10.2.0.x then you will not need to.

  • Oracle 9i Database for Linux

    Hello,
    I need to be able to test some software changes against an Oracle 9i database running under Linux as this is an environment used by one of my customers.
    I have tried downloading the zip files found at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oracle9i/htdocs/linuxsoft.html but if I try to open or download any of these files I receive an Error 404 Page Cannot Be Loaded.
    This happens when using IE6 or when using GetRight.
    Are the links to these files still valid? If not, where can I download Oracle 9i Database for Linux?

    I don't find any problems with these files and they are still available.

  • How to configure distributed transaction in Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC? (ORA-02047)

    I am connecting from Oracle to another database server (MS SQL Server, DB2 the error message is the same) through an ODBC connection using Oracle SQL Developer. (This is how I set up)
    I want to query the schema of a non-Oracle database using the data dictionary mapping of the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC.
    This works well:
    select * from all_tables@katimssql;
    But this doesn't:
    create table alltables_mssql as
    select * from all_tables@katimssql;
    Output:
    Error report:
    SQL Error: ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
    ORA-02047: cannot join the distributed transaction in progress
    ORA-06512: at "SYS.HS$_DDTF_SQLTABLES", line 58
    ORA-06512: at line 1
    Does anyone know the solution of this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Kata
    Details:
    Oracle Database 11g Express Edition Release 11.2.0.2.0
    Microsoft SQL Server 2008 (SP2) - 10.0.4000.0 (X64)

    initkatimssql.ora:
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=katimssql
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
    HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL = READ_ONLY_AUTOCOMMIT
    I tried these, none of them worked, the error message is the same.
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = off
    HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL = SINGLE_SITE
    HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL = READ_ONLY_AUTOCOMMIT
    HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL = READ_ONLY

    Hi Kata,
    this won't work as the ALL_TABLES is not a table that exists in your SQl Server  - instead it is a "mimicked" table. This means the gateway will check if you have on your SQL Server a table called all_tables and when there's no table it will start an internal mechanism to check out what sort of tables exist in your SQL Server database. So the gateway is starting internally another transaction to get details from the foreign database and DG4ODBC can't participate in distributed transactions at all. Instead of using all_tables you have to use a real SQL Server table like SQ Server sys.objects or sys.tables.

  • Is there any way to listen for OS-commands like LINUX/UNIX "kill myApp"?

    Hello, world! ;)
    I would like to get help on the following problem:
    Situation:*
    Implementing my first server-daemon I was wondering if there is any way to listen for OS commands/events affecting the application.
    One particular handling I intend to implement is after an OS termination command (like *"kill myDaemon.jar"* on LINUX/UNIX) to shut down the daemon.
    This would be really helpful, because in this way I would not just shut down the daemon brutally but being able to handle an event like this to shutdown the Thread pool, send all connected peers that the server/daemon will be down for a while, close all connections ...
    Need help:*
    Am I completely forgetting something which solves this problem really quick? :D
    Is there any Listener Interface which I can use to achieve this?
    Is maybe the JVM/JRE handling this and running garbage collectors?
    Is there any site/tutorial/... focusing on problems like this?
    Thanks in advance for any help on this subject!
    JAVAnetic

    Thanks, this was indeed very helpful.
    I implemented a shutdownHook and it works like I hoped it would:
        Runtime.getRuntime().addShutdownHook(new Thread(new Runnable() {
          @Override public void run() {
            // shut down commands
        }));After typing *"kill process_ID"* in a terminal the shutdownHook is invoked (like mentioned before) and the shut down commands are executed.
    Works fine.
    Am happy. :D

    From reading the other messages in this forum I now know that I'm not alone.
    I was lucky enough to get a valid download for 9.2 database for linux but it took
    a number of tries. It would be helpful if there could be a number of published
    mirror sites to try downloading from. Perhaps this is already implemented
    transparently to the end user and it's just luck of the draw that you hit a mirror
    that works...
    However, I've been having problems downloading ora9ias for about 4 days now.
    I'm probably making things worse for others because I've tried to download
    disk 1 and 4 at least 3 times and keep getting files that are close to the stated
    size but usually a few k bigger or smaller; then I get the invalid gzip file error
    message from gunzip. I've tried downloading from IE 5.5, netscape (from both
    windows and linux), trying various ways of downloading (holding shift, or right
    clicking with save as) and still no luck.
    I'll keep trying, but if anyone has any solutions please publish them to this forum.
    thanks.

  • Odd string algorithm (string is for Runtime for linux/unix browser popup)

    I was given this code snippet from this forum in an attempt to popup a web brower in linux/unix operating systems. It doesn't work.
    I have never seen the part of code in bold (the for loop) below, so I can't really make sense of it (the '?' and ':' are new operators to me). When I print the StringBuffer, I show some memory addresses, so I suspect the bold code to be the problem (perhaps needs to specify array indexes?).
    If anyone can either decipher the bold code for me or offer a solution that would work, I would be very grateful.
    Thanks!
    static boolean showInBrowser(String url)
        String os = System.getProperty("os.name").toLowerCase();
        Runtime rt = Runtime.getRuntime();
        try
                if (os.indexOf( "nix") >=0 || os.indexOf( "nux") >=0)
                  String[] browsers = {"epiphany", "firefox", "mozilla", "konqueror",
                      "netscape","opera","links","lynx"};
                  StringBuffer cmd = new StringBuffer();
    for (int i=0; i<browsers.length; i++)
    cmd.append( (i==0 ? "" : " || " ) + browsers +" \"" + url + "\" ");
                  rt.exec(new String[] { "sh", "-c", cmd.toString() });
                  //System.out.println(cmd.toString());
               else
                 return false;
        catch (IOException e)
            e.printStackTrace();
            return false;
        return true;
    }

    ?: is like an if-else operator: i==0?foo:bar is
    if(i==0) value_of_expression = foo else value_of_expression = bar.
    You probably get memory addresses because in the loop "browsers" should really be browsers
    Plain "browsers" just keeps giving you the memory address of the array (or if you want to get nitpicky the hash code which is not really the address.)

  • Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC with Oracle XE

    Dear Colleague,
    Is it possible to use the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC in conjunction with the Oracle Express Edition (or does one have to use the Standard or Enterprise Editions)? If yes, are there any restrictions when using the Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC in the context of Oracle XE?
    Best regards,
    Randy

    Hi,
    As it says, as long as you have an RDBMS license then you do not need a separate license for DG4ODBC. If the confusion is where it says "Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC can be installed and used on a machine different" then that is just to clarify that you can run the gateway on a completely separate machine from where the licensed RDBMS is running, but you can also run DG4ODBC on the same machine where the RDBMS is installed.
    If you install 11g DG4ODBC on the same machine where you have a 10g RDBMS then it must be installed into a separate ORACLE_HOME.
    If this is still not clear then please get back and let us know exactly what you need clarifying.
    Regards,
    Mike

  • [XI 3.1] BEST PRACTICE method of Oracle connection for RPTs on Linux

    Business Objects XI (3.1) - SP3.
    Running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux OS.
    7,000+ Crystal Reports 2008 *.rpt objects ONLY (No Universe / No WebI).
    All reports connecting to Oracle 10g databases.
    ==================
    In the past, all of this infrastructure was running on Windows Server OS and providing the database access via a Named ODBC connection (eg. "APP_DATA".)
    This made it easy to manage as all the Report Developers had a standard System DSN called "APP_DATA" which was the same as the System DSN name on all of our DEV, TEST/UAT, and PROD servers for Business Objects.
    When we wanted to move/promote a *.rpt file from DEV to PROD we did not have to change any "Database Connection" info as it was all taken care of by pointing the System DSN called "APP_DATA" a a different physical Oracle server at the ODBC level.
    Now, that hardware is moving from Windows OS to Red Hat Linux and we are trying to determine the Best Practices (and Pros/Cons) of using one of the three methods below to access the Oracle database for our *.rpts....
    1.) Oracle Native connection
    2.) ODBC connection
    3.) JDBC connection
    Here's what we have determined so far -
    1a.) Oracle Native connection should be the most efficient method of passing SQL-query to the DB with the fewest issues and best speed [PRO]
    1b.) Oracle Native connection may not be supported on Linux - http://www.forumtopics.com/busobj/viewtopic.php?t=118770&view=previous&sid=9cca754b468fc67888ab2553c0fbe448 [CON]
    1c.) Using Oracle Native would require special-handling on the *.rpts at either the source-file or the CMC level to change them from DEV -> TEST -> PROD connection. This would result in a lot more Developer / Admin overhead than they are currently used to. [CON]
    2a.) A 3rd-Party Linux ODBC option may be available from EasySoft - http://www.easysoft.com/products/data_access/odbc_oracle_driver/index.html - which would allow us to use a similar Developer / Admin overhead to what we are used to. [PRO]
    2b.) Adding a 3rd-Party Vendor into the mix may lead to support issues is we have problems with results or speeds of our queries. [CON]
    3a.) JDBC appears to be the "defacto standard" when running Oracle SQL queries from Linux. [PRO]
    3b.) There may be issues with results or speeds of our queries when using JDBC. [CON]
    3c.) Using JDBC requires the explicit-IP of the Oracle server to be defined for each connection. This would require special-handling on the *.rpts at either the source-file (and NOT the CMC level) to change them from DEV -> TEST -> PROD connection. This would result in a lot more Developer / Admin overhead than they are currently used to. [CON]
    ==================
    We would appreciate some advice from anyone who has been down this road before.
    What were your Best Practices?
    What can you add to the Pros and Cons listed above?
    How do we find the "sweet spot" between quality/performance/speed of reports and easy-overhead for the Admins and Developers?
    As always, thanks in advance for your comments.

    Hi,
    I just saw this article and I would like to add some infos.
    First you can quite easely reproduce the same way of working with the odbc entries by playing with the oracle name resolution on the server. By changing some files (sqlnet, tnsnames.ora,..) you can define a different oracle server for a specific name that will be the same accross all environments.
    Database name will be resolved differently regarding to the environment and therefore will access a different database.
    Second option is the possibility to change the connection in .rpt files by an automated way like the schedule manager. This tool is a additional web application to deploy that can change the connection settings of rpt reports on thousands of reports in a few clicks. you can find it here :
    http://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/scn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/80af7965-8bdf-2b10-fa94-bb21833f3db8
    The last option is to do it with a small sdk script, for this purpose, a few lines of codes can change all the reports in a row.
    After some implementations on linux to oracle database I would prefer also the native connection. ODBC and JDBC are deprecated ways to connect to database. You can use DATADIRECT connectors that are quite good but for volumes you will see the difference.

    Thanks

    I need help, in our project we have setup new solaris server and DBA said they have installed Oracle.
    SQLPLUS client is working fine, My question, I have asked my DBA tell me the path where the drivers are installed i.e. .so and I need ODBC.ini file to put my user credentials.
    so that i can use that data source in teradata programming. now the problem is he saying the drivers has been installed using mount and ask your application owner, he only cares oracle native drivers.
    please tell me how to solve this problem.
    I know thrid party odbc drivers would solve this issue, do not which company drivers i should ask.
