Generic Connectivity for 64-bit 10gR2 on Windows

I want to create a database link from a Windows oracle database to SQL Server 2005. The obvious solution seemed to be generic connectivity using HSODBC.
However, I don't have HDODBC.EXE in my 64-bit oracle home.
Doing some investigation, it seems that HSODBC was never supplied/supported on 64-bit windows, and the solution is to use the 11g gateways installed in a separate home and use DGODBC.EXE.
Is this correct?
HSODBC was free with 10g. Is DGODBC still free, or would I have to license it as a gateway product?

Hi Jim,
yes, this is correct. You can use DG4ODBC 11.2 which is the follow up product of HSODBC and which is now available for 64bit Windows.
Like HSODBC the follow up product DG4ODBC is still for free.
You can get the latest software from "My Oracle Support" portal - look for the 11.2.0.2 patchset: 10098816: 11.2.0.2.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER and make sure you've selected the 64bit Windows patchset
The Oracle Gateways software can be found in p10098816_112020_platform_5of7.zip.
Download this CD and install the gateway software into its own Oracle_home.

  • Heterogeneous Services & Oracle Generic Connectivity For DBF file?

    Dear All,
    Can We Create dbf file directly means without using CSV file?
    Can we use Heterogeneous Services & Oracle Generic Connectivity for creating dbase DBF file or Writing in dbase DBF file?
    I have used it for Excel and Access for connectivity with Oracle 9i
    but I dont have any idea about dbase DBF file?
    Any help in this reagards will be highly appriciatalble.
    Thanks

    HSODBC/DG4ODBC is generic connectivity and you find the generic setup in:
    Note.109730.1 How to setup generic connectivity (HSODBC) for 32 bit Windows (Windows NT, Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows 2003)
    There is nothing sepcial for DBF's. Just define a system ODBC DSN using a DBASE ODBC driver pointing to the DBF file.
    The rest is absolute similar to the note.
    If you have already a running HSODBC/DG4ODBC the quickest test is to just define a new system dsn for the DBF file, then change in the init>hsodbc/dg4odbc>.ora file the HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO parameter pointing to the newly created system DSN. Last step is within the Oracle db to define a database link.

    Yes, it's come up a number of times. If you look to the right under "more like this", you'll find threads that may offer useful suggestions.

    I wouldn't think so these days ... however, you could try posting this in the heterogeneous services - which is somewhere on OTN.
    If it we me, I'd convert the DBF into something easier to use with Oracle : like XML or CSV

    Doublechecking. What's the filename of the installer you've been downloading? (The 32-bit installer is called iTunesSetup.exe, and the 64-bit installer is called iTunes64Setup.exe.)

  • Deskjet 710/720/810/820/1000 Series printers - Patch for 64 bit Vista and Windows 7

    There is an issue with the 64 bit Vista, Windows 7 and Windows 8 or 8.1 drivers that causes the spooler to crash with the following HP Deskjet printers:
    Deskjet 710    
    Deskjet 712 
    Deskjet 720 
    Deskjet 722 
    Deskjet 810 
    Deskjet 812 
    Deskjet 820 
    Deskjet 822 
    Deskjet 1000 
    The attached file contains a patch for this issue for Vista and Windows 7.
    [The patch does not currently work for Windows 8 or 8.1 x64 systems.  There are some efforts to address this, if a solution is developed it will be posted here.  {Edit - I have not made any progress in getting the patch to work in Windows 8 x64.}]  
    First make sure the driver for the printer is installed.  If the driver has not been installed go to Start, Devices and Printers, Add a Printer, Local Printer, choose the proper port (for USB-Parallel converters the port will likely be USB001: or perhaps USB002: ), Next, click Windows Update then choose HP for the manufacturer and select the appropriate printer.   
    Apply the patch as follows: Log into the computer with an administrative account.  Download the patch by clicking on this link or on the paper clip at the end of this post.  Save the patch file to your computer, then unzip it.  Next copy the three DLL files to the following directory:  %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3   
    Note that %windir% is a system variable that points to the location of the Windows directory. For most systems this will be C:\Windows.  You can click Start, Computer and type %windir%\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 in the address bar and it will find the right place.
    This can be done from a DOS prompt if DOS is opened with the "run as administrator" command, or from explorer with a copy and paste.  Depending on your UAC settings you may need to provide confirmation.  Also allow the current files to be overwritten if prompted.
    This patch is not required and should not applied to a 32 bit version of Vista or Windows 7.
    Thanks to extraordinary Microsoft engineer Alan Morris for guidance for the patch.
    Update - the following are more detailed installation instructions:
    Download the patch from here. Now click on the file and open it, then extract the patch to some directory that is easy to find. (I use c:\temp. If this directory does not exist you can create it as follows: open the administrative DOS prompt by clicking on Start, All Programs, Accessories, then right click on CMD.EXE and select Run as Administrator. Click in the DOS box then type the following:
    MD c:\temp
    CD \temp
    Now extract the patch files into the c:\temp directory (extract all, chose c:\temp as the destination).
    [Update - Windows security settings may prevent these files from being used, please open Computer, type c:\temp in the address bar and then right click on each of the dll files and select Properties.  If there is a message in Properties indicating the file was downloaded from the internet and may be blocked then unblock the file before proceeding.]
    Next click back in the administrative DOS prompt and type the following: (stuff in green is comments, do not type them...)
    DIR *.dll (this is just to verify the files are there, it should list hpvdb720.dll, hpvdb820.dll and hpwm5db1.dll and perhaps others.)
    Net stop spooler (makes sure the files are not in use.)
    Copy  hpvdb720.dll  C:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this is for the Deskjet 710/712/720/722)
    Copy  hpvdb820.dll  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3 (this covers the Deskjet 820 and 822)
    Copy  hpwm5db1.dll  c:\windows\system32\spool\drivers\x64\3(this covers the Deskjet 1000)
    Net Start Spooler
    Exit
    [Edit - note that these DLL files will already be in the directory.  You will get a warning asking if it is OK to overwrite the files, say "yes".]
    At this point the patch is installed and ready to print.
    Note that the printers here do not support USB connections, they have only parallel ports. [Edit - if your printer does have a parallel port use it, this will likely be much less problematic than using a USB-Parallel converter.]   If you use a USB-parallel converter make sure it is supported in your operating system.  The following posts are flagged with USB-parallel cables that are reported to work in Windows 7.   A driver is required for the USB-parallel converter in addition to the driver for the printer.  For supported converters this is typically supplied automatically in Windows 7.  Note:  the proper port to select for the USB-Parallel converters is often USB001:.  I have heard of some cases where the port was USB002: or LPT3: as well.  If the port you are using does not succeed (after applying the patch) try changing the port by going to Start, Devices and Printers, right click on your printer and select Printer Properties, then click on the Ports tab.

    when trying to download ipod reset utility for windows i get a message that the installer is intended for 32-bit version of windows. what can i do?

    I assume you have tried everything here?
    iPod: Cannot restore or update in iTunes with error 1415, 1417, 1418, 1428, 1429, 1430, 1436, or 1439
    It doesn't mention 1442, but the same troubleshooting applies.
    It wouldn't hurt to also try another available USB port on your machine and another sync cable if possible.
    Lastly, try restoring the iPod on another PC or Mac running iTunes.
    If you know of somebody with a PC running Windows XP still, ask them if you can download the reset utility and use it to reset the Shuffle.

  • Oracle to Access: Generic Connectivity, Help Needed

    Generic connectivity for M.S ACCESS?
    Thanks

    MS drivers for Oracle was designed a very long time ago with Oracle7 in mind.
    You might want to see: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/244661
    I have not tested your code, but I guess you need to consider giving up on the idea of using ancient interfaces such as Jet. Not sure about MS' supporting the technology, but at least the older "win 95" versions seem unlikely to be Unicode-enabled.

  • OuickTime for 64 bit OS

    I was just notified (Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit) of an update from QuickTime 7.6.4 to 7.6.5. I downloaded the update, and then attempted to install.
    I get this message:
    "This installer is intended for 32 bit versions of Windowes. It is highly recommended that you download and install the 64-bit itunes installer instead. Continue with install?"
    I selected "no", and went looking for the 64-bit version. I seems to be no where to be found!
    Oh, There it is (maybe) under iTunes! - 9.0.2 for Windows 64 bit.
    Does this include QuickTime 7.6.5?

    Sorry wcbncal, our posts crossed. (Thanks for the confirmation about the presence of QT 7.6.5 in the 64-bit iTunes installer.)
    I think QuickTime remains 32-bit ... indeed iTunes itself is primarily 32-bit. the Apple Mobile Device Support is 64-bit (it runs the 64-bit version of the usbaapl.sys driver for iPhones and iPod touches), and the 64-bit version of the installer has the 64-bit versions of the GEAR drivers iTunes uses for burning and importing. Pretty sure BonJour and Apple Application Support are 32-bit too.
    So the SysWOW componentry is handling most of the Apple software on your system at the moment.

    Hello ibebry
    Try using the Software Update on your iPhone by going to Settings > General > Software Update. One thing to keep in mind if you are trying it on the computer is to make sure that you are not pressing any keys down when checking for updates as that may bring up a pop up window to find the update file.

  • OBDC Connectivity for 10gR2

    Hi All,
    This following is the email that I got from my customer. Can any one help me out with his question.
    Question: As we have found out from Oracle that the HS-ODBC (a.k.a.generic connectivity) functionality for 10gR2 does not work under EM64T, on Windows 2003 64 bit Server, and a large number of clients may be using this component, I am wondering if Oracle Corp has done any impact study. Also, can we have an alternate solution till they get a fix on this?
    Any help on this question is really helpful for me.
    With Regards
    Phanish

    They say that it is going to be supported in version 11. You can setup HSODBC on some other machine, and then point your servers at that listener rather than the local machine.
