Formating a password with special charactres (#$%&) for oracle

I am using executeQuery statement to alter a user password that has special charactres in it, but having a difficult time with the format, could someone show me how to do that?
Thanks
cheers

You shouldn't be mucking about with escapes - Oracle
has already written all of the code, as have most of
the thin driver providers.String update =
"Alter user ? identified by ?";
PreparedStatement pstmt =
connection.prepareStatement(update);
pstmt.setString(1, userName);
pstmt.setString(2, password);
pstmt.executeUpdate();
...Using PreparedStatements is always your
best bet for avoiding bad escapes and SQL injection
problems.Is that what the OP meant? Good for you.

I believe that starting with 9.2, you have to specify different passwords when you install (can't be the default).

Problem with Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Driver

I tried to import table in MS Access with Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Driver, but a msg error appeared:
"Reserved error (-7776); there is no message for this error"
I think the problem is about Microsoft Jet, but i'm not sure.
Does anybody already had this problem?

Given that you're using a Microsoft front-end and a Microsoft ODBC driver, I'm not sure how much help you'll find on this forum. You could try substituting the Oracle ODBC driver to see if that improves anything.

particular individual, then it's protected as far as you trust that individual
anyway!
Those who are in the dba group on the server can get at the data
in any case.
I just don't see the point in trying to do what you're asking - unless
I've missed something?
BTW, you haven't mentioned OS or db version (see .sig).
Paul...
lovely sethi--
When asking database related questions, please give other posters
some clues, like OS (with version), version of Oracle being used and DDL.
Other trivia such as CPU, RAM + Disk configuration might also be useful.
The exact text and/or number of error messages is useful (!= "it didn't work!"). Thanks.
Furthermore, as a courtesy to those who spend time analysing and attempting to help,

SUNWsprox package with solaris 10 for Oracle 10g Installation....

Hi
I am in problem with a Solaris 10 package "SUNWsprox - Sun workshop Bundled 64-bit make library" for Oracle 10g Installation. I checked the CDs (In the /.../products) but did't found this packege. Can any one tell me please can I go without this package or where I found this package...Please Its very URGENT for me....
Thanks
Mohammed Tanvir

Hi...
I had the same issue, but found out that the SUNWsprox was replaced by SUNWsprot. The OUI 10.1 Release 2 will 'pass' as the doco in the Oracle quick install guide is wrong (as well as 10g Application Server).
The only way to lay a 10g Release database on Solaris 10 is to lay the software doen only, then cd in the .../bin directory, step your Rdbms ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, LD_LIBRARY_PATH and of course the DISPLAY (is X-windowing into the server), and run dbca manually. Oracle 10g is a bit buggy.

Reference for writing COBOL prog with DB2 with ATMI calls for Oracle Tuxedo

Hi..
Am using IBM COBOL for AIX 2.0.0 on Oracle Tuxedo10g R3..
And for database IBM DB2 Version 8.2..
I have to write a program in Cobol with queries and with ATMI calls for Tuxedo..
I need some reference manuals for this or some sample program..
I also need the connectivity from cobol-DB2 to Tuxedo..
Can anyone send me link for the same?
The tutorial CSIMPAPP and STOCKAPP was really helpful..
Am searching for the similar kind..
Thanks in advance..
Edited by: user8103349 on Mar 19, 2009 8:43 PM

Hi,
Hopefully someone has some DB2 COBOL code to share. But in any case, using Tuxedo with COBOL and DB2 should be very similar to simply writing normal DB2 COBOL programs. The major difference is that Tuxedo will take care of making the connection to the database and should normally be allowed to perform all transaction management.
From a configuration standpoint you'll need to add the appropriate line in the Tuxedo RM file that lists how Tuxedo needs to link DB2 XA libraries into the application. The connection information is provided in the OPENINFO string passed along to the TMS that you need to build for DB2 with the buildtms command, and finally you'll need to build your servers with the -r switch to tell Tuxedo which XA libraries need to be linked into the application.

Sorting is wrong with Entity Framework for oracle

Hi,
I've downloaded the Entity Framework for Oracle beta and I found a bug. It's easy to repro:
- Create a model with a simple table
- Create a dynamic data web app
- display the content of your table and try to sort
-> the sql generated is wrong and only sorts on the currently displayed rows and not the entire data.
Did anyone else notice that?
Edited by: lnu on 14 févr. 2011 05:51

Before ODP.NET beta with EF was available I was working with OracleEFProvider from CodePlex (sample alpha version but works with VS2010).
I found the same issue there. Since I had a source code I managed to find the solution.
In class which implemented the base class DbExpressionVisitor there was a method: public override ISqlFragment Visit(DbSkipExpression e)
I had to add sort clause AFTER visiting the expression (which was done too early in previous code).
As the main idea of DbExpressionVisitor should be the same in case of Oracle provider, this can be the reason of improper sorting in queries with paging.

Problem with JDBC driver for Oracle 10g

Hi.
I've successfully accessed a MySQL database via a DataSource from a servlet (that uses a DAO). However, when I try to do the same with an Oracle 10g Database, I get the error message:
Cannot load JDBC driver class 'oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver'
I'm using J2SE1.5.0/5.0 and ojdbc14.jar, the latter of which I downloaded this afternoon as the latest driver JAR available on the Oracle site. As with the MySQL driver, I've placed it in the commons\lib folder within Tomcat. (I've also, of course, made the necessary modifications to server.xml and web.xml.)
Upon examining the ReadMe file at the top of the Oracle download page, I found that the oracle.jdbc.driver package is now deprecated and all references to oracle.jdbc.driver should be replaced with oracle.jdbc. However, I got a similar error message when I tried this modification. Upon examining the contents of ojdbc.jar, I found that the driver was there and that it was, in fact, still oracle\jdbc\driver\OracleDriver!
It appears as though the Oracle site has not been updated with a driver that matches its latest documentation. However, this does not explain why the driver is not even being loacted when it is in the correct place. Can anybody shed any light on this? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks in anticipation.

I've successfully accessed a MySQL database via a
DataSource from a servlet (that uses a DAO). However,
when I try to do the same with an Oracle 10g
Database, I get the error message:
Cannot load JDBC driver class 'oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver'
That's different from a ClassNotFoundException.
>
I'm using J2SE1.5.0/5.0 and ojdbc14.jar, the latter
of which I downloaded this afternoon as the latest
driver JAR available on the Oracle site. So you got ojdbc14.jar or ojdbc14_g.jar under the 10g drivers?
As with the
MySQL driver, I've placed it in the commons\lib
folder within Tomcat. I think it's a better idea to put in the WEB-INF/lib directory of your Web app rather than commons/lib. WAR files are a very good idea, too.
(I've also, of course, made the
necessary modifications to server.xml and web.xml.)So you're using a JNDI data source? It sounds to me like that's where the problem is.
You should not have to edit the server.xml at all. If you put the <ResourceParams> in a context XML file with the same name as your WAR file into the TOMCAT_HOME/webapps directory it'll be picked up automatically. (It might also be accessible in the META-INF directory for your app, but I haven't done it that way.)
Upon examining the ReadMe file at the top of the
Oracle download page, I found that the
oracle.jdbc.driver package is now deprecated and all
references to oracle.jdbc.driver should be replaced
with oracle.jdbc.
However, I got a similar error
message when I tried this modification. Upon
examining the contents of ojdbc.jar, I found that the
driver was there and that it was, in fact, still
oracle\jdbc\driver\OracleDriver! The fully-resolved class name you should be using MUST match the class that's in the ojdbc14.jar that you're using. Look in the JAR for the definitive answer: the one that I downloaded is still using the oracle.jdbc.driver package for OracleDriver.class. Ignore the docs - use the name that's in the JAR.
It appears as though the Oracle site has not been
updated with a driver that matches its latest
documentation. That often happens with docs.
However, this does not explain why the
driver is not even being loacted when it is in the
correct place. Can anybody shed any light on this?
Any help would be much appreciated.I think the problem lies in your web.xml and server.xml
I'd recommend that you decouple the JDBC from the Web app for now. See if you can connect to Oracle using a simple desktop app and leave the Web piece out of the equation for now. Once you can do that, you'll be certain that the parameters you're using are correct and you can turn your attention to getting the Tomcat configuration right.
PS - I'm using Oracle 9.2.0.1 and Tomcat successfully right now, so it can be done.

Problems with exporting display for oracle apps installation

Data Source errors with OLE DB for Oracle

We tried to install Oracle 10g 10.2.0.1.0 x64 Client for Windows on:
Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition Service Pack 1 (64 bit)
SqlServer 2000 Enterprise Edition SP4 (32-bit)
When trying to create a Data Source (from a UDL file or Analysis Services) we get the following errors:
"Provider is no longer available. Ensure that the Provider is installed properly"
"Test connection failed because not all properties can be set. Window Handle (BAD VALUE)"
The Oracle Client install completed "Successfully" and ODBC connections work fine. Also, tnsping works fine. Just the OLE DB connections are failing.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
J

Maybe you can try the below method to configure the oracle provider for OLEDB.
1.Open SQL Server Management Studio
Click on the + to expand the tree for the <Machine Name> SQL Server. Where <Machine Name> is the name of the machine where Microsoft SQL Server is installed on.
The first level of the tree is called <Machine Name> SQL Server,
The second level of the tree is called Linked Servers,
The third level of the tree is called Providers.
a list of Providers are shown.
Right click on the Oracle Provider for OLEDB and select Properties.
Check the check boxes for "Dynamic Parameters" and "Allow InProcess".
