Developer 6.0 and Oracle 8.1.6

I have a NT Network (Primary Domain Controller, 2 Clients, 1 additional server).
I installed Oracle 8.1.6 EE on the additional server and 8.1.6 Client on one client. Everything is fine up to here. Then I tried to install Dev. 6.0 to the client, but the installation said that "Oracle 8.1.6 is already in the Oracle Home OraHome81 e:\oracle\ora81" so I named another Oracle Home and called it
orant in e:\orant. The installation (Developer, Complete) did not get very far, because it stopped with the message that "Oracle Net8 Client does not support multiple homes" and I should "install it into OraHome81.
Which components should I install ?
Please help.
Thanks

I then tried a custom install of Dev. 6.0 but I removed product by product and the error always was "<product name> can't be installed into multiple oracle homes".
I deleted the whole Oracle 8.1.6 Client and just installed Dev. 6.0 into DEFAULT_HOME. I had a TNS-Error Can't resolve service name.
Copying the tnsnames.ora does not help. You have to manipulate it a litte bit, because Net8 TNSNAMES.ORA needs .world after the connect string.
My question now is: Is it a problem to connect with SQL-Plus 8.0.5 which was installed with Dev. 6.0 to a 8.1.6 Database ?

    Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2010 Express and Oracle ODAC112021.
    I can't seem to get the ODAC to work correctly with the Web Developer Express. When putting in a gridview I only see the standard adapters. The one from Oracle does not appear. I have spent days trying to figure out why but no luck. No one else seems to have this problem. I do not see any errors when I installed the ODAC. I've followed a few tutorials.

    I tried using the Windows adapters but they just don't seem to work. I can get results in the query builder but when I go to the next step in the wizard I get the constraints error. I've done all the research on that with no luck so I wanted to use the ODAC. This killing me! This really shouldn't be that hard. I've added the dll to the references but again it's just not an option. If anyone could give me a little direction that would be great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Dear Friends,
    Installing SP1 and updates to it solved the first issue. So the database now seems to be of type 2008 R2.
    Deleting some files solved the second issue.
    However, another issue remains.
    My most important projects were created with a version of VWDX 2010 that was downloaded from Microsoft and installed on July 3, 2012. This version of VWDX has now been lost, because my hard drive recently ceased to function and had to be replaced.
    On the new hard drive I have a version of VWDX 2010 that was downloaded yesterday (May 28, 2014). As indicated above, I also installed SP1 and related updates.
    When I load a project that was created in the version of VWDX 2010 that was installed almost two years ago and try to open the database connection, I get, in essence, the following error message:
    "The database C:\Users\...\Database.mdf cannot be opened, because it is version 661. This server supports version 655 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported."
    So it seems that the original database version was 661, whereas the version downloaded yesterday is 655. It seems very strange that a version downloaded now should be earlier than a version downloaded two years ago. Does anyone have an explanation or a solution?
    Thank you all for your trouble, and best regards.
    Eric (orexin)
    P.S. The site from which I obtained VWDX yesterday was:
    www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/en-us/products/2010-editions/visual-web-developer-express and the executive was called VWD2010SP1AzurePack.exe.

  • DEVELOPER 6.0 AND ORACLE 8i

    During the Developer 6.0 installation, installer complained that
    Developer products could not be installed in same Oracle Home as
    the 8i database: D:\orant. Requested alternate path, assigned
    was C:\orant. Installer signaled a potential change in path to

    You have to configure the TNSNAMES.ora in your ...orant\net80
    \admin directory for developer 6 as it is in a different home
    than 8i. Also you should adapt your 8i listener so you have only
    one on your machine.

  • Developer 6.0 and oracle 8.1.5 personal for 98 connectivity problem

    I have see a couple postings on this. Most say to move the sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files from the oracle 8i(home)/network/admin/ to developer(home)/network/admin or /net80/admin/ directories. My problem is that there isnt an sqlnet.ora file in the oracl8i directory. I did install the NT version just like this and all is fine but I need to install the 98 version here at home. If you can help I would appreciate it. Post here or e-mail me at [email protected]
    Thanks

    I've been dealing with the same problems in the english version but could bypass thiss by doing the folowing.
    -Just ignore the disk space stuff
    -Ignore the charset message, also
    -When creating a database, choose custom and then select the WE8ISO8859P1 char set. It worked for portuguese, must work for french also.
    -Everyone here recommended, and I do the same, leave the database creation for later, not during instalation.
    Good Luck!

  • Crystal Reports and Oracle Dates

    Post Author: Robert
    CA Forum: General
    Hey Guys, I am experiencing some issues with Crystal Reports Developer XI (SP4) and Oracle Dates. Situation:I have a view setup in oracle database, i use this view to base my reports. Within the view there is a logtime column (to_date(logtime,'DD-MM-YYYY') & to_date(logtime,'DD-MON-YYYY') -: i have used both) When i connect to the database the database expert (view on the left of the screen) displays the logtime column as date time, but when i go to refersh the report with data with the logtime as group 1, i get a whole lot of errors:1: Failed to Retrieve data from Database2: Failed to Retrieve data from Database    Details: ORA-01861: Literal does not match format String    Database vendor code: 18613: Failed to Retrieve data from Database    Details: Failed to execute SQL statement. OCI Call................................... Anybody got any ideas why this is happening, if i use the to_char the report work fine...well it will not sort by date!! Any help, most appreciated.... Robert

    CA Forum: General
    Hello there and thanks for your reply,
    I have found the problem, it was not really a problem but a slight misjudgment of the use of the to_date function in oracle!
    I should have used to_date in conjunction with to_char
    to_date(to_char(logtime,'DD-MM-YYYY'),'DD-MM-YYYY')
    Presto
    No need fo any formula in crystal to do this....
    Thanks again

  • Differences between TOAD for Oracle and Oracle SQL Developer?

    Does someone know the advantages and disadvantages of using TOAD for Oracle and Oracle SQL Developer?
    I work making reports with TOAD, but in a few days I will have to use the SQL Developer (because it´s free) unless I justify the necessity of using TOAD.
    Could some that used both compare them?
    Thanks,
    Facundo.

    Hello Facundo,
    since we are rolling out new client PCs we switch from Toad to SQL Developer. Therefore I'm doing some training for the "normal" users and our developers.
    Most users simply want to have access to the data in tables and views. For those there are 2 main issues:
    - Filters get lost when exiting table while sorting is still applied. Since there is no way to apply filtering before entering the data tab this can become a great performance issue because sorting is applied to many many rows. For views it is sometimes impossible to open the data tab.
    - Exporting date values to Excel needs some know how if you want to sort by this column in Excel, because the date is formatted as "Standard" meaning that the sorting is done as for a text column: 01.01.2009 is less than 02.01.2008. Here you have to use a workaround column with a formula (=1*<datecolumn>)
    The greatest Pro is the easy sharing of connections and reports by XML files.
    Our developers like the easy debugging in SQL Developer. Though they miss the feature that the source is compiled for debug automatically as in Toad. For this we have distributed a script that compiles any PL/SQL object for debugging.
    There are only some Toads installed for DBAs and for users that need access to tables protected by policies that require authentification by OS user since this information is not passed under every circumstance.

  • Difference between oracle Developer suit and Oracle Application Server???

    Dear all,,
    If any one please tell me the main difference between Developer Suit and Oracle Application Server.
    I will be very thank ful.
    Thank you
    Hina.

    Hi Hina
    can i deploy my application build on oracle 10g using developer suite with db10g and I don't use application server?For individual use and development yes u can using oracle Developer suit after starting OC4J
    but for client use for more than x user to be able to run reports using parameter forms and other forms application u must use Oracle Application Server
    An application server is
    a server program in a computer in a distributed network that provides the business logic for an application program.
    The application server is frequently viewed as part of a three-tier application, consisting of a graphical user interface (GUI) server, an application (business logic) server, and a database and transaction server.
    More descriptively, it can be viewed as dividing an application into:
    --- A first-tier, front-end, Web browser-based---
    1.graphical user interface, usually at a personal computer or workstation
    2.A middle-tier business logic application or set of applications, possibly on a local area network or intranet server
    3.A third-tier, back-end, database and transaction server, sometimes on a mainframe or large server
    Hope this helps,

  • Difference between Oracle developer suite 9i and 6i

    Hi -
    Can I know what's the release difference between oracle developer suite 9i and 6i , and what's new in oracle discoverer 9i in compare with last version , we have discoverer version of 4.1...
    I could not able to get from metalink anything like new features in 9i deve;oper suite.
    Existing oracle financial application 11.5.8 have their forms and reports in 6i version.
    What impact will have if changed with new version of application 11.5.10 in future .

    Oracle Developer Suite 9i is now called Oracle 9iDS. Oracle also sells Oracle 9iAS. You need to license iAS in order to run application created using iDS.
    9i is fully J2EE compliant. It offers improved integration between components. Its much more feature rich than 6i. See:
    http://www.oracle.com/ip/develop/ids/
    for more information.
    what's new in oracle discoverer 9i in compare with last versionThis question is best asked in Discoverer Forum.
    What impact will have if changed with new version of application 11.5.10 in future Reports offers backward compatibility between 6i and 9i reports with a few exceptions. See Oracle Reports Obsolescence plan on OTN:

  • Developer 6.0, OAS 4.0.8 and Oracle 8i

    I have just installed Oracle 8i, Developer 6.0 and OAS 4.0.8 into our Windows NT 4 test box. I installed the three components on different ORACLE_HOMEs. I am having some difficulties in deploying the demos on the web. I used the static.html and I all I get is a "Oracle JInitiator: applet oracle.forms.engine.main inited" message.
    According to the OAS 4.0.8 release notes, OAS 4.0.8 should be installed on a seperate NT machine if you are using Oracle 8i. The Developer 6.0 release notes recommends to use Oracle 8.0.5 and OAS 4.0.7.
    Do I really have to follow the release notes? Is it possible to setup Oracle 8i, OAS 4.0.8 and Developer 6.0 on the same NT machine? If it is possible, will it work?
    Thank you in advance.

    Ganesh,
    The port that I use to create a new listener is not being used by another process. After creating the new listener the wrb.log is empty and the new listener doesn't have a .err log. The NT event log message is :
    'The description for Event ID (0) in Source (Oracle Web Listener Administrator) could not be found. It contains the ff. insertion string(s): Unable to open service, due to system error 1060.'
    Roncab
    <BLOCKQUOTE><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><HR>Originally posted by Ganesh Kumar ([email protected]):
    Just to double check, Did you check the port number of that newly created Listener? Because if that port is already in use, the HTTP listener will not start. Did you check the log file wrb.log? and also check the error
    (.err) file of the new listener that you can find under the directory
    'OAS_HOME'\ows\admin\'sitename'\'listener_name'
    Please check these files for futher details.

  • Developing database views between Oracle and SQL Server tables

    I am on Oracle 10.2, my organization has many SQL Server databases as well and has now made
    SQL server as company standard so many new databases will be developed in SQL Server. It is of course
    not possible to convert all Oracle databases to SQL Server, so a mix environment will exist. Two questions:
    1.     Is it possible to develop database views in Oracle (10g in my case) which join Oracle tables with tables in SQL Server 2008? If yes, how. I have seen some heterogeneous connectivity setup to connect SQL Server to Oracle, but not sure whether it is possible to develop a database view across two databases.
    2.     I know it is not a SQL Server forum, but many DBA’s know both Oracle and SQL Server. Is it possible to develop views in SQL Server (SQL Server 2008 R2 in my case) which join Oracle 10g and SQL Server 2008 tables? I know in SQL Server, there is way to set up linked servers, but do not know whether it is possible to develop views.
    Thanks a lot for your insight.

    You can create views that join local Oracle tables and remote SQL Server tables. I'm pretty sure you can do the reverse as well but I haven't personally done it.
    However, I would be very concerned about the performance you'd get if you created that sort of view. You'd very frequently end up in a situation where Oracle has to pull all the data in the remote table across the database link in order to apply predicates and join the data locally. That could be disastrous from a performance standpoint.

  • Developer Server and Oracle 7.3

    Need to know if an Oracle 7.3, Developer 2.1 and Developer
    Server configuration is reasonable for putting forms/reports on
    the web, or if we should go to Oracle 8i. Are there any unusual
    problems that we should be watching out for? Thanks in advance
    for your assistance.

    We have developed several form apps using the products in
    question. We have experianced minor GUI problems but many of
    these had patches. You can check by going to: ftp://oracle-
    ftp.oracle.com/dev_tools/patchsets/dev2k/Win95NT/2.1/
    I never experianced the scroll-bar problem the first response
    talks about, not saying it isn't possible. Possibly a different
    database platform.
    All in all we have had good luck with the applications, little
    bit of a setup learning curve, but once we were up and running
    we produced some very effective web applications.

    Hello Kalyan,
    A couple questions:
    1. Once you installed the 11G database, you did start the database services, yes?
    2. Do you have a properly configured TNSNAMES.ORA file that points to your database?
    3. You created a database that you are using and can access the database via SQLPlus?
    Don.
