Ftp connection in oracle server

dear all,
i need some ideas...
Fact: We have an application made by programmers. This app enter a lot of external users through internet browsers. Now the application will have to upload PDF files and save into a directory. This files will be read with UTL_FILE in order to identify the file name.
We were thinking that we have to open an ftp connection (in oracle server) through this application in order to save the pdf files into directory (another server) but this directory will have to connect through NFS to my oracle server.
I think that this could be a potential risk in my oracle server if i open ftp...
can you give me some ideas o antoher ways in order to do that i want ???
Thanks a lot

No version number.
No operating system.
No hardware platform.
No DDL.
Uploading PDF files from the client to the database server?
Uploading PDF files from the database server to another server in the data center?
Uploading to the file system?
Uploading to a BLOB?
What you are doing is totally unclear. But what is most unclear is why you chose to post this in a group named "Database Upgrade." What does this have to do with upgrading?

  • Connectivity Through Oracle Server

    The senario is that i have established Oracle 8.05 as a server and three Oracle 8 client in a LAN Environment.HOst naming Configuration technique make SQLPLUS of client to connect with Oracle server.i have also installed Developer 2000 on the CLient but the problem of connectivity of developer to oracle server bothers me so please give me some configuration technique about it asap
    Thanks

    hello,
    unfortunatly you do not describe your problem precisely, so i guess you can connect from sql-plus but not from developer.
    you have to define your databases in both ORACLE_HOMES. the easiest way is to copy the TNSNAMES.ORA file from the ORACLE_HOME of SQLPLUS to the ORACLE_HOME of DEVELOPER.

  • Connect to oracle server

    I am getting message when I will try to connect with Oracle server
    "Unable to connect to the management server. The management server 9.2.0.1.0 production is incompatible with this client". How can I resolve this problem ?

    It sounds like the version of your OEM client is not the same as the version of your OMS. The versions must be the same.

  • Steps to Connect remote Oracle Server using OCi C in Linux

    Hi !
    I am trying to connect oracle server through my application using OCI C in linux, it works fine in my oracle server machine.
    I want to connect oracle server through my C application from Oracle Client Machine
    can anyone help me in this issue ?
    regards
    Balaji.C

    Sounds like you did not specify your database name. Or you database name is hard-coded.
    Can you show us the code?
    Is your TNSNAMES.ORA set up correctly?
    Also, you did not specify any error messages or anything. Are you checking the result codes after any functions?

  • Not able to connect with Oracle server through VBScript without DSN

    Hi
    I have both Oracle9i and Oracle10g clients installed with local system.
    I am able to connect to Oracle Database 11g Enterprise edition server though sqlplus through command prompt and also through AQT without any error.
    As the server has lots of database ,whenever I connect to a particular database through sqlplus from command prompt,I connect as below
    C:>sqlplus username/password@service_name
    and it gets connected without any error.
    When I am trying to connect the same database through VB Script,I am getting ORA-12560 TNS:Protocol Adaptor Error.
    Below is the connection string I am using:
    Database_String = "SERVER=xxxx.vvvn.Com;Driver={Oracle in OraHome92};DATABASE=service_name;user id=userid; password=passowrd"
    I have installed a Oracle10g server in my local system and tried to connect the same way and I was successfully ,but its not working when the server is running remotely.
    Does it make any difference with the version of driver being used ?Should I need to modify my connection string anyway.
    Please help me as to identify the issue.Thank you very much in advance.

  • "Xandros" (linux flavor), shows "TNS 12203" connect with oracle server(win

    I am using oracle developer 6i and from 2000 on operating system "Xandros" (linux flavor),and working properly after instalation.
    Problem when i am connecting to this Machine with oracle server(windos) it shows "TNS 12203"

    Thanks

    Hi,
    here is the descroption of TNS 12203
    oerr TNS 12203
    12203, 00000, "TNS:unable to connect to destination"
    // *Cause: Invalid address specified or destination is not listening.
    // This error can also occur because of underlying network or network
    // transport problems.
    // *Action: Verify that the net service name you entered was correct.
    // Verify that the ADDRESS portion of the connect descriptor which
    // corresponds to the net service name is correct. Ensure that the
    // destination process (for example the listener) is running at the

    Check if you see the database server from the client machine, and if listener is running and on which port, check tnsnames.ora on client.

  • Oracle client picking up wrong port while connecting to oracle server

    Hi,
    I have an oracle client installed in one of the system. As we know oracle client connects to the server on port 1521, but from my client system every time i try to connect it is taking random ports which are blocked on our firewall, hence not connecting to the server.
    Is there any method i can connect with port 1521 only. I have also put the entry in client tnsnames.ora
    Thanks in advance

    Edited by: M Kiran Kumar Reddy on Jul 23, 2009 7:42 PMThat's because tnsping goes no further than the listener. There doesn't even have to be a database to get a successful tnsping. And since tnsping only needs to ping the listener (not the database) it only needs port 1521. It's when the listener tries to set up the actual database connection that he will (by default) pick an random port for that connection.

  • Crystal Developer crash, connecting with "Oracle Server" (Unicode DB): "buffer overrun"

    Post Author: mdde
    CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
    Hello everyone!
    We're experiencing the following error, connecting with "Crystal Developer XI" or "Crystal Developer 2008" to a unicode-configured Oracle 10g Database using "Oracle Server"-driver and choosing a table:
    ERROR MESSAGE: Buffer overrun detected!
    Program: ...essObjects Enterprise 12.0\win32_x86\crw32.exe
    A buffer overrun has been detected which has corrupted the program's internal state.The Program cannot safely continue execution and must now be terminated.
    This error is reproducable by 100%. We're normally using it because of performance, but now we have do work with "Microsoft OLEDB" instead.
    STEP BY STEP: Open CR Developer, File, New Report, New Connection (to unicode instance - this is a must), "Oracle Server", (Login without checking "OS auth."), Double click on table, Error.
    DETAILS: "Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production", Oracle-client used by CR Developer: "11.1.0". OS: Windows XP, SP2
    We tried CR SP4 and SP for 2008 edition. Didn't help. Nothing on google, nor in this forum, nor in BO knowledge base.
    Does anyone also experience this error / know anything about? Thanks in advance!

    P.S.: Picture:

    Hi Aaron,
    I highly recommend that you only have ONE oracle client installed. Oracle tends to have problems finding the correct dependency versions of their runtime. One way is to change your PATH statement so it only has the one Client listed but I highly suggest you uninstall both and then install just the 11G client.
    Also, when CR connects to Oracle we query the DB and load all tables, SP's Views, etc. and when the local resources are filled up we stop. So when connecting be sure to check off the options not being used and add filtering in that UI also for your schema as well.
    One last change, close the designer down and then go into regedit and this location:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\SAP BusinessObjects\Suite XI 4.0\Crystal Reports\DatabaseOptions - DoAutoSmartLinking and set the default value to No if it's not already.
    Thanks

  • Cannot connect to ORACLE server in VPN

    Hello ,
    May this be a networking question but it deals with oracle database. In a workgroup environment a client PC is not able to connect to the PC in which oracle is installed.

  • Establih a connection to Oracle Server through Discoverer 11g

    Hi
    I am new to Oracle Discoverer reporting, I have installed Oracle Discoverer 11g on my Windows 7 32bit mechine and when I open discoverer it is asking for connection details.
    I would like to know more on this connection details :
    --Do I need to install Oracle client on my mechine ?
    --Or is there any settings to be modified (ora.ini file or etc...)
    --Do I have to install any other components to establish a connection to my oracle server ?
    Your help is highly appriciated.
    Thanks,
    Sastry

    Hi,
    Do I need to install Oracle client on my mechine ?No, all the client software is installed with the Discoverer Admin and User install
    Or is there any settings to be modified (ora.ini file or etc...) You need to setup the tnsnames.ora file found in the <OH>/network directory within the Discoverer Admin/User Oracle home directory. The setup is the same for other Oracle clients e.g. SQLPlus.
    Do I have to install any other components to establish a connection to my oracle server ?
    No, not unless you are connecting to an e-Business Suite using an apps mode EUL.Rod West

  • Unable to connect to Oracle Server

    Dear all
    I want to ask is anyone tried able to instant connect from SQL Developer.
    But not able to connect from sqlplus or Data Sources (ODBC)?
    The login name is kennam
    password is kennam007
    service name is kennam
    I can't connect to the Oracle Server from sqlplus kennam/kennam007@kennam
    But it work on SQL Developer
    Thanks

    sql developer doesn't use tnsnames.ora.
    sqlplus does, unless you use the host:port:sid syntax.
    So your tnsnames.ora is probably incorrect.
    You should have posted the error message you get right away, not only 'I can't connect'

  • Ftp connects to the server but it uploads an empty file...

    Hello All,
    I just purchased a new copy of adobe web suite premium and i have a question on the ftp feature. I am able to connect to the server and transfer files. The problem is that the .php and .html and .etc load blank files. All the code is lost when the transfer is complete. When I transfer images all is good.
    I thought that it could be the server so I used filezilla and the same files transfered with no problem. I'm thinking it might be a config problem with Dreamweaver.
    Any help with this topic would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

  • 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.

    Thank 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.
