DBA_LIBRARIES

I have a database running on 11.1.0.7 in HPUX ia64 environment!
It is running from 11.1.0.7 OH. But when I query the dba_libraries it shows the Oracle Home as different. could you please let me know why is this behavior?

YOU define the column_name as ORACLE_HOME (could be ANY other valid name), that's not the name as the environment variable ORACLE_HOME. And libraries can be be stored where you want, not necessarily in $ORACLE_HOME.

Hello Lorenzo,
Currently the procedure on how to do this can be found at:
http://technet.oracle.com/products/iportal/pdf/conf_ldap.pdf
9iAS v2 will be in production sometime in the next month or two.
The procedure for setting this up will be more siplified in 9iAS
v2.
Thanks,

Do we have any views to know about ORACLE HOME?

Hi experts,
Do we have any views in oracle 9i to see the oracle_home,oracle_base.
Thanks in advance

Error loading external library (Oracle 8.1.5)

I'm running Oracle 8.1.5 and am trying to configure the interMedia Text option to enable long test searches using the "contains" operator.
I've installed (and re-installed) the interMedia text option trying to get this thing working. The installations (including the re-installation) were successful and starting the ctxsrv process was successful as well. No matter what I do, however, I get the following error when I try to create a context type index:
SQL> create index z$long_ix on z$long(data) indextype is ctxsys.context;
create index z$long_ix on z$long(data) indextype is ctxsys.context

I have tried everything in the online newsgroups, FAQs, etc, but still seem to have this error come up.

(ORACLE_HOME = /dbmsu001/app/oracle/product/8.1.5)
I restarted the listener each time I made changes to listener.ora and I restarted ctxsrv process each time as well to make sure. I run ctxsrv as "ctxsrv -user ctxsys/ctxsys -personality M -log ctx.log &". I exited SQL*PLus and restarted to make sure I got a new session under the new listener process.
I don't know alot about libraries and external processes, but from what I've read, I have everything setup properly. I checked the dba_libraries view and it shows the proper filename and path for the libctxx8.so file. It should be correct as it's the same file/path I entered while installing the interMedia text option.
I've also tried setting text_enable = FALSE in initXXX.ora to make sure that doesn't interfere. Somewhere I read that having that parameter set to TRUE may cause some problems as it's only for version prior to 8.1.5.
If you have any additional information that can help me get this working, it would be greatly appreciated. I've spent countless hours and am just spinning my wheels now with an ever increasing level of frustration.

This might be best asked in the Oracel Text forum...
But, it appears that you have extproc configured correctly, the problem is that extproc cannot find the shared object in question. It cannot dynamically load the shared object becaus it cannot find it.
In my experience, this is due to a LD_LIBRARY_PATH unix environmental variable that does not include the directory where the shared object is. You should set this variable in the login script for the oracle user.
From the installation guide.... I am not sure if this library is in ORACLE_HOME/lib, if not add the directory to LD_LIBRARY_PATH
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
Required when using Oracle products that use shared libraries. Set LD_LIBRARY_
PATH to include $ORACLE_HOME/lib.

External Procedure call - wait event - no response

Executing SQL that use external library - I dont get any response
I see wait event as 'External Procedure call' and no response, no errors are thrown.
Am I missing something or how do I troubleshoot further...
Your help very much appreciated.
Please note I have no entry in TNSNAMES.ORA or LISTENER.ORA file for extproc connections.

I cannot use context cartridge...
When I try to create index, i receive following error message:
SQL> create index myindex on x(name) indextype is ctxsys.context
2 parameters ('lexer mylexer wordlist mywordlist stoplist mystoplist');
create index myindex on x(name) indextype is ctxsys.context
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-29855: error occurred in the execution of ODCIINDEXCREATE routine
ORA-20000: ConText error:
ORA-06520: PL/SQL: Error loading external library
ORA-06522: z: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.DRUE", line 122
ORA-06512: at "CTXSYS.TEXTINDEXMETHODS", line 34
ORA-06512: at line 1
I listed below the libraries Oracle Context have installed:
SQL> select library_name, file_spec from dba_libraries where library_name
like 'DR%'
LIBRARY_NAME FILE_SPEC
DR$LIB
DR$LIBX z
As you can see these libraries have strange file_specs, but i dont know what right file_specs i must use...
Please help...
Best regards
Oleg

But the status of the context index is VALID on the view USER_INDEXES...
Besides lsnrctl says following about extproc:
LSNRCTL> status e
Connecting to (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)(KEY=EXTPROCKEY))
STATUS of the LISTENER
Alias e

extproc has 1 service handler(s)
The command completed successfully
So, all is right with extproc...

Determining ORACLE_HOME location from DBA_ or V$ views

DB Version:10gR2
Is there a DBA_ or V$ view which i can query to determine ORACLE_HOME location?
Edited by: james_p on Oct 13, 2008 3:18 AM

SELECT substr(file_spec,1,instr(file_spec,'lib')-2) ORACLE_HOME FROM dba_libraries
WHERE library_name='DBMS_SUMADV_LIB';Interesting idea. Unfortunately when I tried the query on 10g NULL was returned :(
The oracle home might be extractable from V$PARAMTER name = 'user_dump_dest'
SQL> c/name/value
1* select value from v$parameter where name = 'user_dump_dest'
SQL> /
VALUE
C:\ORACLE\PRODUCT\10.2.0\ADMIN\ORCL\UDUMP

Is my Oracle Home used?

Hi,
I have a task to uninstall all the unused Oracle Homes from a server.
But before doing that, I want to know whether there are any databases running on that particular home or not? How do I find that?
I checked /etc/oratab file and confirmed that there are no databases associated with this unused Oracle Homes.
Do I have to check some other location? Is there any command to check whether this Oracle Home is being used or not?
Please help me out!
Thanks!

select NVL(substr(file_spec, 1, instr(file_spec, '\', -1, 2) -1) , substr(file_spec, 1, instr(file_spec, '/', -1, 2) -1)) folder from dba_libraries where library_name = 'DBMS_SUMADV_LIB';Use the above to connect every database and make sure that the oracle home you're trying remove aren't present.
