Discoverer 3.1 with Oracle 10g

Hi All,
I want to use Discoverer 3.1 against Oracle 10.1.0.4 Database and Oracle 10.1.2.0.2 Application Server. This is a temporary solution only, since a client urgently needs to run his Discoverer reports. The operating system of the client machines is Windows 2000 and on the other hand, the Discoverer version they want to put in place is 3.1.18. This version is not designed for WIN2K and above.
Discoverer 3.1.18 still runs on WIN2K but the company expects to carry out upgrade to Windows XP Professional. Obviously Discoverer 3.1 is not a solution but they want to use it for a short time. My main question in this respect is if Discoverer 3.1.18 could be run against Oracle 10g.

Hi
To be honest I have never tried it. My gut instinct is that it won't work but I could be wrong so you would have to try it and see. The unfortunate aspect about all of this is that Discoverer 3 has been long desupported so there is no way you would get any help from Oracle should things go wrong.
I also have to question your Discoverer release number. If you are on 3.1.18 you are definitely on dodgy ground because this is not Y2K compliant. The release you should be on is 3.1.36. The following posting from my blog lists all of the Discoverer releases along with their correct patch numbers:
http://learndiscoverer.blogspot.com/2006/04/april-2006-oracle-discoverer-patch.html
You may find it useful. If you need to get hold of the 3.1.36 patch you could try raising a SR but I wouldn't guarantee that you will succeed. What's wrong with using the latest 10.1.2.0.2? It has Desktop and Administrator just the same and will work on the 10g database no problem.
I hope this helps
Regards
Michael

Compatible of Oracle discover 4 with Oracle 10g Database

Could you please let me know if Oracle Discoverer version 4 is compatible with Oracle 10g database?
We are migrating Oracle database 8i to 10g but want to if we can still live with the Discoverer 4.

Interesting question.
As long as you're not talking about 4i (ie: the 'plus-type' version), then it may well work. Reason is that back in v4.x, you'd just be running a client / server version so not using any of the iAS framework so it may be just like running something like: TOAD wherein you're just accessing the database directly.
However, as you have to have the EUL in the database, etc. - I would guess that the best thing to do is to simply try it.
As it's just client / server, you could see if it works as a test case in probably 15 mins. or so. If you do, let us know as useful (albeit, eventually out-dated when 4.x is finally trashed by everyone) information.

Sqlj runtime error with oracle 10G in Websphere6 or 5.1

We are trying to migrate from oracle 9i to 10G and we are compiled all our sqlj code with codegen = -oracle option.(previously we used to use codegen=-jdbc which for some reason doesnot work).it compiles fine with out any erros.. But when we try to run then get this exception.
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: SQLJ programs translated with the option -codegen=oracle must be run under Oracle JDBC 9.0.0 or higher. If the Oracle JDBC driver is wrapped, then the wrapper must implement all of the oracle.jdbc.OracleXxxx interfaces. Alternatively, you can translate SQLJ programs either with -codegen=iso. java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: SQLJ programs translated with the option -codegen=oracle must be run under Oracle JDBC 9.0.0 or higher. If the Oracle JDBC driver is wrapped, then the wrapper must implement all of the oracle.jdbc.OracleXxxx interfaces. Alternatively, you can translate SQLJ programs either with -codegen=iso.

We are using ojdbc14.jar that came with oracle 10G.
Hope any one can give any pointers.

I'm having same issue - but I'm having it when I try to invoke a method that contains a database Object type from a Tibco Business Works Process called a Java Method.
How exactly do you do the codegen=iso configuration?
I've tried:
1. Project Properties / Compiler SQLJ and then select from Code Generation drop down iso.
2. From Connections / Database / Navigate to package / right-click / Generate Java / Browse to my custom jpub.properties file where I have tried multiple entries such as (by themselves and in some combination.:
- jpub.codegen=jdbc
- jpub.codegen=iso
- jpub.compatible=9i
- jpub.compatible=8i
- compatible=both8i
- jpub.usertypes=oracle
- jpub.compatible=customdatum
- jpub.compatible=sqlj
I've also played with changing from the default some of the Mapping Options in Connections / Database / Navigate to package / right-click / Generate Java / Mapping Options.
This doc here, says that code should change (section 6 JPublisher Input Files - based on configuration of Input files)
Oracle® Database
JPublisher User's Guide
10g Release 2 (10.2)
B14188-01
No matter what I do, the code that gets generate is the same.
Also, the documentation talks about running things from the command line but how exactly do you do that? Do I need to be in specific directory? I tried the c:\ C:\jdev\system and c\jdev\ and c:jdev\bin and always get error message: 'jpub' is not recognized as an internal or external command, operable program or batch file.
I've built a java client in JDeveloper to successfully call the same method and I don't see the error.

Small Business Server 2003 Compatibility with Oracle 10G, licensing?

Hello all,
Is Windows SBS 2003 compatible with Oracle 10G, I looked at the compatibility and didn't notice it but I wanted to see if anyone here had any experience with the two.

The licensing isn't by cpu slots, it's by the number
of cores times a multipier, which I believe for intel
is .5, so if you have a cpu w/ 2 cores, you would
purchase a 1 cpu license. If you have a quad core
cpu, you would need to purchase a 2 cpu license. I
would definitely talk to your sales rep about this to
make sure the multipier is right (and if it has
changed w/ intel quad technology).Thanks Jim. The multiplier used above for Intel is indeed correct. However, Oracle has (in the last few weeks) introduced the term 'socket' into it's licensing metrics as follows:
"When licensing Oracle programs with Standard Edition One or Standard Edition in the product name, a processor is counted equivalent to an occupied socket. See http://www.oracle.com/corporate/pricing/technology-price-list.pdf "
To quote another source (CRN):
"..Standard Edition was licensed for servers with up to four single-core processor cores. For multicore chips, users could only license it for up to eight cores total. Oracle's formula was to multiply the number of cores by 0.50 to get the CPU license number to determine price. So a four-core box counted as two CPUs.
Now Standard Edition can be licensed on servers with up to four sockets, or four processors running one-, two- or four-core chips (and possibly a higher number of cores)." This source overlooks to mention that the multiplier relates to Intel!

SunOneAppServ with Oracle 10g vers. 10.1.0.3.0

Hello,
I'm using two different versions of SunOneAppServer,
Sun Java System Application Server Enterprise Edition 8.1_02(build b19-p08) and
Sun Java System Application Server 7 2004Q2UR2.
These two instances of Application Servers work over two different databases, Oracle 8 and Oracle 10g vers. 10.1.0.3.0.
When working with Oracle 10 I get locks over some records during transactions and that transactions don't run correctly so the records remain locked and all following transactions go on waiting indefinitely or until I kill the session using toad.
Looking at the query locking the record it seems to me it's a query done by the application server.
Using the same software and making the same operation over the database with Oracle 8 this doesn't happen.
Does anyone has the same problem or knows how to solve it?
A collegue of mines told me that these versions of application servers doesn't support Oracle 10g. Is it true?

Both versions of the appserver below will work with Oracle 10g.
There is not enough details as to asist with your problem, but it could well be a change in semantics for locking in 10g that is causing your issue

Install Oracle 9i client on a computer with Oracle 10g Client

Hello all!!
I'm using a computer with Oracle 10g client, and I access two databases. One server has Oracle 10g server, and the other server has Oracle 9i server.
I want to install 9i client, to have it also in my computer. I haver read that I just have to install it in a different ORACLE_HOME, but I have a doubt.
If I install 9i client, would I be able to use the utilities, (exp, expddp, sqlldr) of both versions, or which version will be used in the command line for the utilities.
Thanks a lot!!!

To start with, Home Selector is a "9i thing" (and older), in 10g there's the OUI -> Installed Products... -> Environment tab instead.
About the 9i dbca with other Oracle products installed. If you use launch.exe to start via dbca start menu shortcut, it uses ora92\assistants\dbca as working directory ("start from"). So when not looking for "numbered dlls" like oracore9.dll, a later/different version will be loaded if earlier in path, since loading goes through jre directories, ora92\assistants\dbca, then the dir's from path variable. From there it may start to link in libraries from different homes (on my laptop, "launch.exe dbca" uses files from 2 additional home paths!)
But, if you instead use dbca.bat started from ora92\bin, it will look in the right directories first and there's no dll mess-up. (But only when using the correct cwd!)
Plain and simple: stay very far away from multiple-general-home installs. It is possible to install allright, in different homes and all very nicely, but there will be pain when you decide to use the stuff (perhaps with sql*plus as the only exception, but I've run into bugs with that too).

Oracle 11g compatibility with oracle 10g and 9i?

Hi All
I have some queries on 11g compatibility.
Is oracle 11g client compatible with oracle 10g client which is already installed on desktop?
If yes any changes to be done and where?
Is oracle 11g compatible with oracle 10g/9i on the same server where 10g/9i are installed?
Regards

Thanks Justin Thats right ...
Problem elaboration is as follows
We currently have an application which requires oracle 10g(10.2.0.3) client to connect to database from user desktops. As
part of new application development the oracle 11g clients need to be installed on all the user deskotps.
The complete application software along with oracle client 11g has to be roled out on these desktop as part of
implementaion of new application besides the existing application(The application software is packaged along with oracle
10g client).
We would like to understand if there is any software provided by oracle using which we can switch between different oracle
versions while accessing the respective applications simultaneously. Also are there any known bugs/issues in running
oracle 10g client and oracle 11g client together on the same user desktops with different oracle homes?

Does Informatica 7.1 work with Oracle 10g?

Hi All,
I have Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1.0) and I just installed Informatica 7.1. While creating a new repository in Informatica Repository Admin Console, I am getting error as:
"Unable to create the repository content. Make sure that the database connection and the license keys are correct. Check the activity log for more details."
I confirmed that the license keys are correct. The database connection is also good as I could connect using the same username/password in SQLPlus. The activity log says:

Error is [An error occurred while creating the repository.
I did not change anything manually,as it says in the warning. I have no idea what the error says.
My friend has Oracle 9i and he do not get any error like this. So does Informatica 7.1 works with Oracle 10g ?
Please help.
Yogini

Hi,
I found that with Oracle 10g you have to grant all DBA privileges to the repository user. This is not needed in Oracle 9i. Thats why I was getting error.
Now it works fine.
Thanks!

Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g

Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g or higher versions.
I have worked on Oracle 9i database and i have basic knowledge about Sql commands and i am planning to go for Oracle 10g Certification does it make any difference if i do not take ORACLE 9i Certification and directly go on to do my Certification.
Kindly advise

Will ORACLE 9i after few years will be completely replaced with ORACLE 10g or higher versions. Not sure what you mean by that. There are some systems which are running Oracle 7.x till date and the administrators have not even bothered to upgrade to Oracle 8i, let alone 10g/11g.
does it make any difference if i do not take ORACLE 9i Certification and directly go on to do my Certification.It does not make any difference unless you want to get certified on every version of Oracle.

Error: SAP installation of ERP Sr3 with ORACLE 10g on Windows 2008 server

Dear all,
while installaing SAP ERP SR3 with ORACLE 10g on windows 2008 server...
we are getting error as not support.
please confirm wether this version of OS is uspported or not.
thanking you in all,
by
Animesh

actualy we tried to change Oraparam.ini file in the installation folder...
edited ... windows= 5.0, 5.1, 6.0
we had entered 6.0
Yes - that is necessary.
and started ... but after starting we are getting ERROR like unKNOWN and installation popup (OUI popup) exiting with .. error popup.
Yes - because Oracle delivers its own Java version - which is too old to run on Windows 2008.
if you suggest us to use 2003 64 bit for temporaray .... purpose.
and is there any specified procedure to UPgrade OS.
like... DB should be updated before OS upgradation.
You can run 10.2.0.4 on Windows 2003 x64 nicely and upgrade to Windows 2008. Since there is no "upgrade" (it is the highest version supported) there´s no need to do anything.
The question you have to ask is:
Why do you need Windows 2008? Is there any technical implication?
