EPM installation - hundreds of connections to ORACLE product schemas
We installed EPM 11.1.1.1 in a 3 machines configuration (1 main ESSBASE and FOUNDATION, 1 for Reporting -FINANCIAL + INTERACTIVE,1 for Web - Workspace and WEB ANALYSIS)
Each EPM product has its own schema on a 9.2.0.8 database, which is a production database not dedicated to Hyperion (so used by other applications)
Now EPM products seem to estabilish hundreds of session on Oracle Database .... disturbing all other applications (and easily generating ORA-00020 error "maximum number of process exceeded" on my Db)
I've search on internet, looking for a way to limit/config these sessions (hyperion.jdbc.oracle.OracleDriver connections ?) , without any result.
Please, help !!
Hi,
why OCINLogon()? Why not OCILogon()? BTW: We do not use PHP 4.3.1, it is 4.3.11.
Best regards

Connecting to Oracle Configurator schema in EBS 11.5.10
Hello,
Is it possible to connect remotely (from different machine) to Oracle Configurator schema using CZWebAppsContext provided no networking issues? I've copied dbc file locally from EBS server and I've tried different CZWebAppsContext constructor calls to no avail. Perhaps I need to modify the dbc file?
I get following exception:

Oracle Product Workbench - connection issue with EBS 12.1.3
Hi,
we've upgraded EBS to 12.1.3 and our Product Workbench is no longer able to retrieve the organization info from the server. We're checking the Packet details in Network Statistics in that case an also when View Concurrent Requests is opened and the server sends back the login page. So apparently PWB cannot log in to the server and is requested to enter credentials.
Apache response is:
170.251.121.114 - - [18/Nov/2011:08:48:58 -0500] "GET /OA_HTML/AppsLogin?requestUrl=http%3A%2F%2Febsapp_lab.accenture.com%3A8000%2FOA_HTML%2FOA.jsp%3FpageHidden%3DY%26LanguageCode%3DUS%26page%3D%2Foracle%2Fapps%2Fdna%2Fintegration%2Fwebui%2FDnaIntegrationPG%26ServerDBC%3DPIMDB%26integration_xml%3D%3C%253Fxml%2520version%253D%221.0%22%2520encoding%253D'UTF-8'%253F%3E%26transactionid%3D1530222396%26oapc%3D2%26oas%3DMt4FQpG-HDucayzYKri9lA..&cancelUrl=http%3A%2F%2Febsapp_lab.accenture.com%3A8000%2FOA_HTML%2FAppsLogin&errText=You+have+insufficient+privileges+for+the+current+operation.

To sum up: errText=You+have+insufficient+privileges+for+the+current+operation.
If we log in to the old EBS to 12.1.1 with the same browser and same settings, we don't have that issue.
Any idea of what that can be?
Thanks. Raúl.The issue was a "_" char in the hostname.This must be changed as is not IETF-compliant and therefore not a supported character and is known to cause problems. Refer RFC 952 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc0952.txt) for more information. This is also documented in Microsoft article Q275033 "Cookies Are Not Saved If the Host Name Is Invalid", this feature was introduced from IE 5.01 SP1 http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;275033

Best Oracle product to connect to mobile device apps
Our company has a large ERP system in Oracle that we are looking to access from a simple app written for the iPad/Iphone. What Oracle product do we need to accomplish this? I'm a long-time Oracle developer, but previously I've only hooked Oracle to other databases such as SQLServer. Getting a little confused on the products, between BPEL, XML Gateway, web service etc. This will not be a very complicated app, but it needs to read the data from the database and push some back to the database.
... as with anything, you have to ask what the purpose of the 'web application' is: are you developing a portal system, a data collection form with or without reporting capabilities, logins, accounts, etc. - or an internal web application meant to handle simple business tasks with small amounts of data?
The Oracle product offerings can run from simple (APEX) to more complex cases (ADF, WebCenter Framework, etc.) - it all depends on what you're trying to accomplish.
A good place to start would be just to download the JDeveloper IDE - JDeveloper supports a really wide array of Oracle technologies so you can get a feel for what might be the best 'tool' for your use case.... and JDeveloper even supports a number of standard web app approaches (e.g. Apache Struts) if you're familiar with those kind of tools. -

Unable to connect to Oracle Database using Oracle Sql developer 2.1.1.64
Hi Everyone,
I am searching for some help regarding my problem with Oracle connectivity. I have installed Oracle 11g release 2 on my Windows XP Professional Laptop. For a few days after installation i could connect to the Oracle database with the SYSTEM account using Oracle SQL developer ( installed on the same Laptop) but now i am unable to do so.It gives me this annoying message:

Thanks for your patience and help in advance.

I can connect to the Oracle database using SQL Plus. Now when i TNSPING ORACLE from command line i get the following message :

Connect to Oracle without Oracle Client in Windows?
Hi All,
Is there anyway to connect to Oracle DB without any installation of Oracle Product in Client?
I am using MS ODBC Driver Oracle but It need the "Data Source Name"
It seems that client machine do need to Setup the NET 8 Configure / Tnsname.ora
I can try to set any thing in Oracle Server, But want to minimize the effort doing on the client (Because there are many!).
I am using Visual Basic, WIN XP as client Platform. WIN 2K as Oracle DB Server.
Can anybody give me a hand. Thank you very much!
Eric YuenYou'll need to install Oracle Client in the client machine. ODBC (or other) connections need OCI and Oracle Net layers.
The Oracle ODBC has a lot of dependencies, probably a thousand files. Unfortunately Client is pretty heavy... managewize also. So that's why you should develop "internet apps". :) -
Cannot connect to Oracle through ODBC.
Please help, I don't know what else to try.
I'm writing automated test scripts and frequently need to access the database to verify data values. These scripts run under multiple environments and have to validate several different flavors of database products. I use ODBC to establish the database connection and this works well under everything except the following environment:
Database Host:
Windows Server 2008, Standard Edition
Oracle 10g
Client:
Windows Server 2008 Standard (64-bit)
Oracle 11g client software installed.
Following recommendations here on the Oracle site, I used the OUI to remove the Oracle ODBC driver that is installed with the client software and installed RDBODBC3320_x64.msi.
I was unable to connect to the database at all using the Oracle 10g client software under this environment, but it is my understanding that Oracle 11g should work. I don't have much choice. The Oracle 10g client refused to install in this environment.
I am able to create a DSN for the database using the ODBC Data Source Administrator. I specify the configuration correctly, but when I try to test the connection, it returns the error:
FAILED: Service Connection test
rc=-1
SQLState=08S01
[Oracle][ODBC][Rdb] Connect Ret -1 Err# 10061
WSAECONNREFUSED Connection refused
I interpret this to mean that I'm reaching the server and database, but it isn't recognizing the connection as being from a legitimate account. Am I wrong?
From this client machine, I am able to connect to and query the database using SQLPlus, so it isn't that the database is unavailable from the test machine.
On the host server, I am able to create an ODBC configuration that tests successfully. That is, of course, the 10g version of the ODBC driver.
I hope someone can supply an answer, this is a high visibility item that is making me look foolish.
Thanks,
Dave P.Hi Dave,
It's difficult to make decent recommendations without knowing for sure even what kind of database you're connecting to, or what issues you're having exactly. "No success with the 64 bit flavor" doesn't provide much info to go on.
Here's the bullet points that will hopefully get you working, assuming you're connecting to "regular" oracle and that this whole RDB thing was a wild goose chase. If you're actually connecting to an RDB database, skip all the steps below and go post in the RDB forum to get their advice. If you're not sure what the difference is, or what you're connecting to, ask someone who knows.
*1)* Are you ultimately trying to connect with a 32 bit app or a 64 bit app, from the 64 bit 2008 box?
- What kind of "scripts" are you writing? VBSscript you're executing from a DOS prompt? If so, how are you invoking it exactly? Just by typing filename.vbs?
- Are the scripts running with 32bit cscript.exe or 64 bit cscript.exe?
The bottom line is that 32 bit apps need 32 bit client software, and 64 bit apps need 64 bit client software, and you need to have the right stuff installed. The first thing you need to figure out is whether you're running 32 bit app or 64 bit process. Usually you can open Task Manager and look for the process name in the Process tab; if there's a *32 next to it, it's 32 bit. Otherwise it's 64 bit.
*2)* Once you determine what bitness the software you're running is, you then need to download and install that bitness of Oracle client software. You can get 11.2.0.1 here:
32 bit 11.2 client:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win32soft-098987.html
64 bit 11.2 client:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/enterprise-edition/downloads/112010-win64soft-094461.html
*3)* After downloading the client.zip and extracting it, run setup.exe, take the defaults, chose Custom install type, select ODBC driver and SQLPlus from the list, and the installer will automatically install the Oracle software as well.
Note: You could use Instant Client for this as well; but you'll have to download and install SQLPlus and the ODBC driver in addition to the instant client itself, and using the OUI and the Full client installation is "easier" as it doesn't require manual installation like Instant client does, so less error prone.
*4)* Configure tnsnames.ora for that install so the client knows where you want to connect to, test it using sqlplus from that install location to make sure you have it right.
*5)* If you want to configure a 32 bit dsn, you need to use the 32 bit administrator ( c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe).
64 bit dsn's you configure via c:\windows\system32\odbcad32.exe (or via control panel > odbc administrator).
*6)* Run your app, hopefully you're dialed.
*7)* Profit.
Hope it helps,

JDBC connection to Oracle 10g RAC periodically times out
I've been banging my head against the wall for months now and can't figure out why this is and what's causing it.
We have 6x CF8 servers in our environment. 3 of which work perfectly and the other 3 have the following problem. All 6 machines were installed at the same time and followed the exact same installation plan.
When I configure Oracle RAC data source, some of the machines time-out connecting to Oracle from time-to-time.
Config:
Solaris 9 on both CF and Oracle
CF8 Enterprise with the latest updater.
Apache 2 (not that it's relevant)
6 machines, load-balanced (not clustered), identical install and configuration.
data source config:
JDBC URL: jdbc:macromedia:oracle://10.0.0.3:1521;serviceName=dbname.ourdomain.com;AlternateServers= (10.0.0.4:1521);LoadBalancing=true
DRIVER CLASS: macromedia.jdbc.MacromediaDriver
The problem:
Every few minutes, CF starts hanging requests that deal with a specific RAC only data source. After about 30 seconds, all requests bail and generate this error in cfserver.log:
A non-SQL error occurred while requesting a connection from dbsource.
Timed out trying to establish connection
This happens with any RAC data source on the "bad" servers while the "good" servers don't have this problem. The "bad" server doesn't have any problems with direct (non-rac) Oracle data source.
Already tried:
Moving server connections around on a switch (rulling out bad switch port)
Copying driver from the healthy server (but it's the same installer anyway)
Changed from RAC to normal Oracle type data source - works perfectly. So at the moment I have 3 servers connecting to a specific oracle instance and the other 3 connecting to RAC.
Tried googling and searching forums and even Oracle metalink - nothing I could see relevant to this.
It's a shame that after spending a ton of money on CF8 upgrades and Oracle RAC, we can't really utilize fail-over on the database connection.
Any takers?
Thanks,
HenryI have the following in my CLASSPATH:
C:\Ora10g1\product\10.2.0\db_1\jdbc\lib\jdbc.jar;

ODBC connectivity between Oracle 11G and MSSQL Server on Solaris 10
When we were running in 10G, I was able to successfully configure hsodbc using unixODBC and freeTDS to allow for an ODBC connection between Oracle and MSSQL Server.
A few weeks ago we upgraded to 11G and I've been struggling to get the connectivity (dg4odbc) working.
In our 10g environment unixODBC and freeTDS were compiled as 32-bit. I have recompiled them as 64-bit and switched over to an 11G listener and I am getting the following error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

Can anyone help me see what I'm missing?Thank you for your response.
I modified the envs LD_LIBRARY_PATH parameter in my SID_LIST_LISTENERODBC to be:

and bounced the listener, but I'm still getting the same error.
I do not have a lib64 directory in my Freetds installation, but all the files in the lib directory are 64-bit.

ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message: ORA-02063: preceding line from OWB_75
Scenario:
I am having difficulty getting ODBC connection between Oracle OWB app with an 11gR2 DB (running on a VirtualBox Linux) and SQL Server 2008 running directly on the host. (Windows 8)
I am trying to take a SQL Server 2008 feed into Oracle Ware house Builder, and think(!) I have read everything and configured it in accordance (but I presume not given 3 days of failed attempts to fix it).

Rafe.Let us rewrite your ODBC DSN a little bit... Your current odbc.ini looks like:
[ACME_POS]
Driver = FreeTDS
Description = ODBC Connection via FreeTDS
Trace = 1
Servername = 192.168.1.80
Database = dbo
Let us change it a little bit so that we only need one config file - no odbcinst.ini nor freetds.conf file anymore:
[ACME_POS]
Driver =/usr/local/lib/libtdsodbc.so
Server = 192.168.1.80
Database
= dbo #### I have some doubts that you have a SQL Server database called dbo - one database that always exists is master - so as a test use master here or get the real database name of the SQL Server database you want to connect
Port = 60801 ## make sure it really is the correct port - best would be to check on the SQL server and then try telnet <ip> <port> if you can connect to the SQL server
TDS_Version = 8.0
QuotedId=YES
Especially the last 2 parameters are mandatory. TDS_Version specifies the TDS Version you have to use to connect to the SQL Server and QuotedID is required for DG4ODBC as it surrounds objevt names by double quotes.
What happens now when you try to connect with for example isql - the ODBC test utility shipped with the ODBC Driver manager?
In addition, could you please do me another favour and check the word size of DG4ODBC and the ODBC Driver Manager as well as the ODBC Driver - just execute:
file /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/bin/dg4odbc
file /usr/local/lib/libtdsodbc.so
file < the patch to your libodbc.so library>/libodbc.so
and post the output. -
Unable to connect to Oracle server on the first attempt.
Hi,
I've downloaded the Oracle Data Provider for .NET and I've installed it on my computer. Only this software, and only the client tools and there are no more Oracle products intalled on this computer.
I've developed a test application in order to take a look to these libraries but I am very dissapointed with the behaviour of the OracleConnection class, and that is because when I call the open() method for the first time it is impossible to open the connection, the application never returns from this call. If I close the application and I execute it again it takes 0.0 seconds to open the connection and If I wait about 5 or 10 minutes without querying the database, next time I try to connect it fails again showing the same behaviour that it showed in the first connection attempt.
I really don't know if I am missing some software installation or any configuration, I've tried this on two computers and the result is the same. I've looked for an answer in this forum but the only I have fount takes not sense, it says that it deppends of the user used to connect to the database.
I have to add that the database is not in the same network of the computer.
Thanks in advance,Regards.
Edited by: user7134478 on 08-jul-2010 9:50Thank you for your answer Alex.
I've tried both options but is hasn't solved my problem :-(
I think that I didn't explain it well, the first connection attempt doesn't take 5 minutes it never connects to the database.
That's what I am doing.
1.-Launch the C# app using the OracleConnection.Open() method
2.-The application freezes after call the Open() method (no timeout response...)
3.-Stop the application execution
4.-Launch the application again and it takes 2 seconds the response from the Open() method
5.-I do some querys and everything works fine
6.-Wait for 5-10 minutes without any kind of access to the database.
7.-Query the database after these minutes and after call the method Open() what I described in point 2. happens again , the application freezes.
I've tried this under Windows XP, Windows vista, in different computers and the behaviour is always the same.
The curious thing is that I've installed the SQL Developer and everything woks fine, no connection timeouts, the first connection takes only a couple of seconds.
I really don't know what's happening here and It should work fine. It is very dissapointing. -
Need help connecting to Oracle 7
Hi!
My name is Patrick and I have a question regarding Oracle 7. First I need to clarify that I usually don't work with Oracle products at all and there I'm a total newbie in this area; please be gentle! :)
I work for a company that installs/builds/integrate healthcare systems, and we have now encountered a problem that involves Oracle 7. We need to create a connection between a workstation with a Oracle database (version 7) provided by another company and a product of ours using ODBC. We have been in contact with the other company that informed us that we need to install the Oracle 7 ODBC driver that is found on a Oracle Client CD. The problem is that this CD is gone and the customer wasn’t even aware of it. As I understand it there is no way of just downloading and installing the driver by itself, but you need the Oracle installer - is this correct?
Anyway, what would the quickest solution for this problem? Is it even possible to buy Oracle 7 nowadays? Would a later version than 7 work?
Thank you for your help!
Regards,
PatrickHi,
In theory it is possible with a 9.0.1 client (but not with 9.2). See note 207303.1 in Metalink.
https://metalink.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/showdoc?db=NOT&id=207303.1
If this is true, you can download ODBC 9.0 from here

A 9.0.1 is more difficult to find, but it might be included as part of some other product, eg an old version Discoverer Desktop (such as 4.1 or 9.0.4)
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/discoverer/index.html
or an old version of Designer...
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/designer/index.html
Another option is a third-party ODBC stack with their own wire-level implementation of Oracle SQL*Net.
Good luck.

Problems connecting to Oracle 11g R1 RAC
Hi everybody
In my factory we hava a web aplication called Matrix one that is connected to an oracle database 11g. This aplication uses Weblogic 9.2.3 to load the web pages. Until now we had an oracle running in one server, but now we have put an oracle rac system. The application works fine with this new situatin, but there ar parts of the system that don´t work. We have made our own applicatons that use thin jdbc driver to connect to database, but now when we connected to the rac sometimes the connection is established well but most of times the conecction failed. The error that weblogic returns is "connection refused".
I´ve modified the startweblogic.cmd to use the las jdbc driver but the result is the same. My connection is the folloowing:
Connection conn = null;
String cadenaConexion = "";
try{
OracleDataSource ods = new OracleDataSource();
ods.setUser(user);
ods.setPassword(Pass);
cadenaConexion = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION=";
cadenaConexion = cadenaConexion + "(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=" + Server1 +")(PORT=1521))";
cadenaConexion = cadenaConexion + "(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=" + Server2 +")(PORT=1521))";
cadenaConexion = cadenaConexion + "(LOAD_BALANCE=on)";
cadenaConexion = cadenaConexion + "(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVER=dedicated)(SERVICE_NAME="+Service_Name+")";
cadenaConexion = cadenaConexion + "(FAILOVER_MODE=(TYPE=Select)(METHOD=basic)(RETRIES=180)(DELAY=5))))";
ods.setURL(cadenaConexion);
return con;
}catch (Exception e){
e.printStackTrace();
return (null);
This is my startWeblogic.cmd:

I´ve tried to use the Oci driver but then the error is diferent "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no ocijdbc9 in java.library.path".
I´ve red a lot of messages in forums but >I haven´t found the solution.
Anybody could help me please?
Thanks in advance
Sorry for my English.I´ve tried to use the Oci driver but then the error is diferent "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no ocijdbc9 in java.library.path".OCI requires a Oracle shared library (nothing to do with java.)
returns is "connection refused".Which suggests a network problem. Given that you have added at least one new box to your network, how it was added would be the problem. Such as if a network infrastructure box is having an intermittent failure.
