DbLink between 10g and 8i databases

Hi all
I have a little problem. I have two different databases in two different versions 10.6 and 8.1.7. Some forms (developer 6.i) use the dblink and i get a crash to desktop when i try to compile. Developer exit with abnormal termination.It is due to tables with the dblink aren´t recognized because if i comment the select where these tables are used the programm compiles perfectly.
But when I go to SQL plus,for instance, and use a DESC, the tables are recognize in this case. All the synonym are created correctly.
Any help? Maybe it's due to the different database versions?
Thanks in advance

Hi,
Maybe you should post this problem in a Forms Forum too.

  • NVL in view: discrepancy between 10G and 11G

    Hi,
    I've discovered some discrepancy between 10G and 11G in a way how view deals with NVL-based column in a where clause.
    Here are two examples:
    *10G:*
    Connected to:
    Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
    SQL> create table test_nvl (null_column number);
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into test_nvl values (null);
    1 row created.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> create view view_nvl as select nvl(null_column,0) null_column from test_nvl;
    View created.
    SQL> select * from view_nvl where null_column is not null and null_column = 0;
    NULL_COLUMN
    0
    *11G*
    Connected to:
    Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
    SQL> create table test_nvl (null_column number);
    Table created.
    SQL> insert into test_nvl values (null);
    1 row created.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> create view view_nvl as select nvl(null_column,0) null_column from test_nvl;
    View created.
    SQL> select * from view_nvl where null_column is not null and null_column = 0;
    no rows selected
    Does anyone know why it behaves differently?
    I couldn't find any documentation regarding this.
    Or I'm just missing something here.
    Thanks

  • Is there any difference between 10g and 11g M Views?

    Hi,
    I need to give a demo on and working examples of materialized views. The requirement is this: Master tables are in a 10g R2 DB, MV is in a 11g.
    I just create a DB Link in 11g to point to the 10g DB and then create the MV in 11g.
    Will there be any problems creating a 11g MV using 10 Master tables?
    My question is are there any significant differences between 10g and 11g MViews??
    Thanks & Regards,
    Channa.

    You have to be careful about your versions. 10g could be 10.1 or 10.2 11g could be 11.1 or 11.2
    I wouldn't have an 11.2 database with a database link against a 10.1 database.
    In fact, even with 10.2, I would try to ensure that I have a "high patchset" (10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5) although, in theory, 10.2.0.1 should also work.

  • Data mismatch between 10g and 11g.

    Hi
    We recently upgraded OBIEE to 11.1.1.6.0 from 10.1.3.4.0. While testing we found data mismatch between 10g and 11g in-case of few reports which are including a front end calculated column with division included in it, say for example ("- Paycheck"."Earnings" / COUNT(DISTINCT "- Pay"."Check Date")) / 25.
    The data is matching for the below scenarios.
    1) When the column is removed from both 10g and 11g.
    2) When the aggregation rule is set to either "Sum or Count" in both 10g and 11g.
    It would be very helpful and greatly appreciated if any workaround/pointers to solve this issue is provided.
    Thanks

  • Goldengate between active and standby database server

    Hi:
    I want to make goldengate connection between active and standby database servers (bidirectional). is it possible?
    if yes what steps is required rather than active-active connection.
    PLease help!!!
    Regards,
    Abhishek

    What do you mean by "standby" server? If you are referring to a Data Guard standby, how would bidirectional work? That's why one is primary, the other is standby.
    If you are doing A-A, your "standby" is just another master in the N-way master architecture, so you already have a bi-di setup, right? Are you looking to replace Streams with GG?

  • Client for win 7 64 bit to access 10g and 8i database in Benthic Goldview

    Can someone provide a link to a client I can install in my windows 7 64 bit that will allow me to access a Oracle 10g and 8i database?  I'm using Benthic Goldview.
    Please provide some high level installation instructions also.

    Please keep in mind I'm a java developer, not a db guru...
    Scenario:  I'm using windows 7 pro, 64 bit, I vpn in to another network.  They have a box called 'thunder', that has a 8i db on it called arab805.  I have the username and password for it.
    What I did:  I tried using Squirrel to connect, keep getting an error saying it can't connect to it. 
    An actual error message would have been very useful. "an error saying it can't connect to it.'  is totally devoid of useful information.
    Somewhere I found some info that said I had to set up a DSN on my box first.  Tried that, wasn't able to make it work.
    What, exactly, did "Tried that" consist of?  To me, "setting up a DSN" would mean configuring a Data Source Name connection definition for ODBC.  That still requires installing and configuring the Oracle client software.
    Question:  Please provide me some detailed instructions on how to get this working.  Please don't provide me a link to something only a db guru would understand, I need some hand-holding help please.  If you could start with the high-level first, then work your way to more detailed, that would be great!
    example, something like this for a start - then give me more detail please:
    download oracle client
    set up dsn connection
    set up squirrel
    Ok,
    - Download Oracle client  (edelivery.oracle.com -- drill down from there to find the 11.2 client download.  Be sure to read all the 'read me' files and instructions on the web page itself.
    - Install the orcle client from the download.
    - Once installed, use the 'netca' utlility to configure the orcle client connection definition.
    - Make sure you can use the oracle client program 'sqlplus' to connect to the database.  Only after that is working will it make any sense to ..
    - Configure the ODBC DSN.
    Quite making excuses about 'not being a DBA guru'.  It's not necessary to be a DBA guru to to do this, and we understand that it is all new to you.  But it is the same basics you should know as a developer ... read instructions, research error messages, etc.

  • Slow Problems with Oracle Forms 10g and Oracle Database 11g

    Hi, I wonder if there is a compatibility problem between Version 10.1.2.0.2 32 Oracle Forms and Oracle Database 11g Enterprise Edition Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production. This is because my application runs correctly on a version of Oracle Database 10g, and when we migrated the database to an Oracle Database 11g, slowness problems came out.
    Thanks.

    We have the same issue happening with our custom forms and with some of the standard forms in EBSO. So far we have found that the form invoking a view causes ridiculous slowness in opening the form (40 mins). Using a table access has shortened the open time significantly. At this time Oracle DBAs at OOD have no clear idea why it is happening.
    we are on 11.1 database with 11.5 EBSO

  • Difference Between Shutdown and Close Database

    Hi all,
    Let say I want to start the instance of database with the following processes :
    1. STARTUP MOUNT
    2. ALTER DATABASE OPEN
    With two commands above, now the database is open. Then, I want to close the database with command :
    3. ALTER DATABASE CLOSE
    After this, I want to reopen the database again by using this :
    4. ALTER DATABASE OPEN
    I know that it will produce an error because when the database is opened and closed, its lifetime has already ended, so we must shutdown it first.
    My questions are :
    1. What's the difference between CLOSE and SHUTDOWN ? Suppose in the case above, I want to close the database. Why don't I just type SHUTDOWN ? Why is it necessary for me to use command CLOSE instead of SHUTDOWN ?
    2. What are the conditions of database when I CLOSE database, also, what are the conditions of database when I SHUTDOWN database ? I want to know more detail because I have tried to find in google, but now satisfying result
    Thanks before
    Edited by: cycon on Nov 8, 2010 9:00 AM

    alter database close;this you can execute only from OPEN status
    when ever you close the database it will go to mount status here you cannot open the database again, you need to clean sutdown and need to startup.
    alter database open;ths you can execute only on MOUNT status, it will takes you to mount --> open status.
    Thanks
