Easy config

I have installed Oracle form developer on my client XP.
When I used Net 8 easy config with Oracle DB 9.2.0.5.0 & 7.3.4.
My test was successful.
But with DB 10.1.0.2.0 is failed.
I have noticed
Character set from 7.3.4 is as follows:
SELECT value
FROM SYS.NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
WHERE parameter = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
VALUE
US7ASC11
From 9.2.0.5.0 is as follows:
SELECT value
FROM SYS.NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
WHERE parameter = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
VALUE
WE8ISO8859P1
BUT IN 10.1.0.2.0
SELECT value
FROM NLS_DATABASE_PARAMETERS
WHERE parameter = 'NLS_CHARACTERSET';
VALUE
AL32UTF8
Database 9.2.0.5 is totally different DB.
Database 7.3.4 is a current version of DB we are using for Oracle forms 5.0.6
But my goal is to upgrade form 5.0 to 10g.
So I am upgrading from 5.0 to 6i and then from 6i to 10g.
1) Do I need to change charaterset of 10g Database? If yes , how?
2) I will compile all forms 6i using a oracle 7.3.4 DB and then I'll upgrade forms to 10G of forms, then I can connect to the 10G DB and re-compile them.
which option is best please suggest me?
Regards,
D

Could you be more specific about the nature of your problem?
Thanks.

[RESOL]after running net8 easy config php no longer connects with ora_logon

fixed by adding .WORLD to the ora_logon command :)
servers:
oracle 8i 8.1.7.4.0 remotely located called PROD
windows 2000 server running IIS and php 4.3.4 net8
above windows server was passed down to me so initial setup was done by someone else
I needed to update the TSNNAMES.ora file to add a connection to a new oracle database (DEV) on the 2K web server. I located the tnsnames.ora file in c:\orant\net80\admin and created a backup.
I then ran the net8 easy config to create the new tns name
I tested the new database with a php file that uses $dbh = ora_login("$user@DEV","$Pass");
this failed for the new SID. I checked and noticed also that all my old php files pointing to PROD where also failing with the dreaded ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name.
Now because this was only a quick test to check on the new TNSname I copyed back my old TNSNAMES.ORA file to the c:\orant\net80\admin directory. Problem is all of my php files still give the same error message.
I started testing
pngtns PROD == "OK"
tried to login the way I use to login with the GUI sqlplus
Username = user@PROD
Pass = Pass
HOST = {left blank}
this gives me the ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name error. It use to work like this
I then tried
Username = user
Pass = Pass
HOST = PROD
This worked and I was able to successfully run a query
Username = user
Pass = Pass@PROD
HOST = {left blank}
This also works
I then went to the command line and ran sqlplus username@PROD/Pass
It returns ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name. and askes me for a username
I put in username@PROD
then it prompts
Password: I put in my password here and it works, and connect me to the server
I tried to change my scripts to ora_login("user","Pass@PROD"); and it produces a
ORA-12203: TNS:unable to connect to destination.
Unfortunatly I cannot for the life of me get oci8 functionality to work with this version of php. If I add it to the extensions and uncomment it from php.ini it hangs the whole server. And at this point I'm woried about screwin more things up.
Any help is very appreciated.
I verified and setup environmental variables for TNS_ADMIN, and ORACLE_HOME
I put DEV back in because it made no difference with or without it in the tnsnames.ora file.

Problem in Oracle net8 easy config. URGENT

Dear All,
I need your favour, actually i instatlled Forms6i on windows XP it is installed successfully and every component(Forms, Reports) are opening without any problem. But whne i am going to configure my Net Services through Oracle Net8 Easy config it is giving close illegal operation,
Note: i do not have any oracle product installed on my m/c except forms6i.
Please send me some solution as early as possible.
Thanx a Lot
Krishna

Windows XP is not yet a certified platform.
That said, why not modify your tnsnames.ora file manually using a text editor.

Forms 6i - Oracle Net8 Easy Config Problem in Pentium4 Machine

Hello to All:
I've installed the software successfully, but I couldn't open the Oracle Net8 Easy Config in Win. 2000 and Pentium 4 machine. It gave an error message "jre.exe has generated errors and will be closed by window. You will need to restart the program". I restarted the machine, but it's still gave the same error. I also tried to add code in tnsnames.ora, it didn't help either.
I need some help please,
Thanks in advance,
TD

You can modify script file "..\orant\NET80\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora"

Plz Help! Unable to open Net 8 Easy Config.

Hello,
I am unable to open Net 8 Easy Config. When I try to open the Net 8 Easy Config, the program hangs. My OS is Win 2k Pro. I am running a P4 chip at 1.5 Ghz. I am trying to open Net 8 Easy Config to create a service name to connect Oracle forms 6i, second release with Oracle 9i Database. Any help will be appreciated!

I think the Java Runtime Environment is conflicting ...... you can create the service name by editing the tnsnames.ora file also. To do this go to the ORACLE_HOME of D2K and go to net80 and admin and then open tnsnames.ora and edit this file at the end add this ...
test =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = testserver)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = testSID))
test = your service name
testserver = your server name where Database is running
testSID = is the SID of the Database.
I think this will help you .....

Not able to do Net8 Easy config Please Help!!!

I have installed oracle 8i and oracle designer 6i on my pc with
win98. when i try to use net8 easy config, it asks for Host
Name, i tried to give the name of the machine and database name,
i receive message ora-12224 error message. I would like to know
what to input for host name and is there any other method in
installing designer.
Thanks
Shivakumar

After the installation go to your oracle home directory or the
designer home directory and in that find the file called
tnsnames.ora (usually located in \\home\network or net80\admin\).
edit the file and add an entry something like below
alias.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = hostname)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = oracledatabase_sid)
where alias -> is aany name suffixed with .world.
hostname -> is the name of the host, if possible in the
hostname give the IP address of the machine.
oracledatabase_sid -> is the sid the oracle database to which
you will connect usual values would be ora817, orcl etc.
This should help.

Using Net8 easy config i can establish the connection with oracle server. Then after, I've also installed the Developer with Forms 6I in the same computer in different directory ORAD2k with sepate home ORAD2K. for this I tried to establish a connection through "Oracle Net8 Easy Config". While i select the menu item "Oracle Net8 Easy Config", it gives me an error :
The instruction at "0x00010111" referenced memory at "0x016286e0". The memory could not be "written".
Click on OK to terminate the program

Can somebody tell me how to make a connection from Developer (Forms6I and Reports 6I)
Thank you.

Net8 Easy config problem on Win2000 server

After installing the Form6i on the server win2000, I try to start Net8 Easy Config but nothing happens. I couldn't connect to the 8i database in Form6i either. It seems the service name couldn't be resolved. I tried to manually config the file TNSNAMES.ORA. It didn't work either. Is there anything I can do?

SQL*NET Easy Config

I can't find the orainst.exe file on Oracle's site to setup SQL & ODBC on a client machine. Does anyone know where to get this?

I'm not sure I follow your question...
SQL*Net Easy Config is a utility that allows you to do things like configure your tnsnames.ora file after you have installed the Oracle client.
The ODBC Data Source Administrator allows you to configure ODBC connections to your database after the Oracle client has been installed.
The Oracle Universal Installer allows you to install the Oracle client in the first place.
Which, if any, of these utilities are you referring to?

thanks advanced

Go to Metalink and look at note 120529.996
Oracle does not support all the products on the Pentium 4 plantform yet.
You do not have to use the Easy config program. You can modify the tnsnames.ora file your self. The Easy config is just a GUI tool that helps you modify the file.
The file locations is normally
$ORACLE_HOME\NET80\ADMIN for Net8
OR
$ORACLE_HOME\NETWORK\ADMIN
