How to connect to an Oracle XE database from Forms

Hello,
I have just installed Oracle XE on my computer. After that I downloaded Oracle Developer Suite. My intention is to build programs with Forms. This forms program shall manage data stored in my Oracle XE database.
My question is: How to connect to the Oracle XE database from forms. In forms developer I have tried to connect the database with the command Ctrl+J. Then I registered username, password and oracle instance (orcl). It will not work!
best regards
Håkan Axheim

Hello,
the tnsnames.ora must have been updated with the XE information.
the SID for Xpress Database is always XE
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = XE)

To configure Oracle JDBC:
1. Add Oracle JDBC JAR file classes12.zip or ojdbc14.zip to classpath.
2. Load and register the JDBC driver.
Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver");
3. Obtain a connection:
String url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@<host>:1521:<database>
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection(url,
"myLogin", "myPassword");
4. Create a SQL statement.
Statement stmt = con.createStatement();
5. Obtain a result set.
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery(
"SELECT ...");

How to mask data in oracle 11g database release 1

how to mask data in oracle 11g database release 1
my environment is
Database: 11g release 1
os: AIX 6 (64 bit)
GC:10g release 1

DBA-009 wrote:
thx but how i can mask data with above give environment?What does "mask data" mean to you and what is the environment you are referring to?
Telling us that you are using 11.1 helps. But it is far from a complete description of the environment. What edition of the database are you using? What options are installed? What Enterprise Manager packs are licensed? Is any of this changable? Could you license another option for the database or another pack for Enterprise Manager if that was necessary?
What does it mean to you to "mask data"? Do you want to store the data on disk and then mask the data in the presentation layer when certain people query it (i.e. store the patient's social security number in the database but only present ***-**- and the last 4 digits to certain sets of employees)? Do you want to hide entire fields from certain people? Do you want to change the data stored in the database when you are refreshing a lower environment with production data? If so, do you need and/or want this process to be either determinisitic or reversable or both?

Connecting to an Oracle 8i Database

Hi Everyone,
Has there been any successful ODI 11g connection (via Studio or Agent) to an Oracle 8i database?
When I create a new Data Server, and select the Oracle JDBC driver in the list, I get this prompt message:
Oracle JDBC Driver (Type 4 / Type 2).
Use this driver to connect to Oracle 7, 8i, 9i, 10g and 11g databases.
Supports both type 2 (OCI) and type 4 (Thin) connections.
But I get no luck in connecting to the 8i database. Even if I've added classes12.zip or ojdbc14.jar in the classpath.
Has anyone been able to get this work?
Thanks!

Hi,
As in ODI 11g certification matrix i dont see Oracle 8i, I am afraid, ODI 11g doesnt support Oracle 8i DB, not sure even though. Have a look,

Installing JDBC driver to connect to Oracle 8i Database from Weblogic 10.3

I want to connect to Oracle 8i database from weblogic 10.3 application server. I found a classes12. zip file on Oracle.com to use as driver for the same.
I am also connecting Oracle 9i database from the app server. Now if i replace the classes12. jar from the lib folder won't it disallow me to connect to the Oracle 9i database.
2ndly the claases12.zip file i found from the site is for jdk 1.2 will it create any problems. Please let me know
Kindly let me know what is the standard procedure to install a new driver in Weblogic 10.3.

I tried to install weblogic 10.3 using jdk 1.5.07 but. it is not supported. Moreover from the sites also i found that it's only the application wars and ears compiled in jdk 1.5 need not be recompiled in 1.6. But no reference of jdk 1.5 is there.
I tried to use thin client from the code and connect to Oracle 7i
i got the following exception.

Moving Oracle 9i database from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3

Hi,
We are planing to move few of our Oracle 9i databases from AIX 5.2 to AIX 5.3 on another server. Will offline backup/restore work in this case ? The databases are fairly big (> 1 TB each). Looking for some advice.. Thanks.
Rgds,
Himansu

Hi Kamran,
As the DBs are fairly large ( approx. 1 TB each), how long it would take to copy the databases to the target server using RMAN DUPLICATE .. ? Do you think offline backup/restore would be a better approach ? Both the source and target boxes are co-located in the same data center. Thanks !
Rgds,
HimansuI assume that RMAN will be more faster than hard copy/paste (cold backup). I can't say how much it will probably take to take RMAN DUPLICATE, but it should be faster than cold backup

Connect to remote database from forms

hi,
I installed 10g developer suite on windows.I have a 10g database running on HPUX server.
I need to connect to this database from forms ( i,e from windows ).
Do i need to install an Oracle client so that forms can talk to a remote database?
I edited C:\Forms_Dev\NETWORK\ADMIN/tnsnames.ora to include the remote database entry. It's not working. So I am thinking maybe I need to install oracle client as a go between.
Thanks

Do i need to install an Oracle client so that forms can talk to a remote database?No, Tnsnames (NET8) is enough.
Write us you tnsnames.ora or try
tnsping <serverdb> from client, and check.
