IIOP connection problems .: JDeveloper 3.1 and Oracle 8.1.6

This is my 4th day working on this problem. I cannot get an IIOP connection to work.
I have verfied that the listener is running on port 2481, I have been inside of the init.ora, listeners.ora, I have read the error inside of listeners.log, and I have been trying things with the Net8 Assistant also.
Most of the posts on this subject seem older, I am wondering if anyone has had this problem recently with the versions that I am using. There are so many things I have been told to change, I'm wondering if there is a definitive list of steps to fix this problem.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

My settings:

connection name: OracleConnectionPool
url: jdbc.oracle.thin:@myOracleServer:1521:myDBName
driver class name: oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
properties: user=scott

- I have also downloaded classes12.zip and nls_charset12.zip from
Oracle.com
and have placed under $WL_HOME/lib.
- I have added $WL_HOME/lib/classes12.zip:$WL_HOME/lib/nls_charset12.zip
in
front of the $CLASSPATH in the startWeblogic.sh script. The echoed
classpath
from the startup script is:

- Still I get the error:
<Jan 16, 2002 1:38:45 PM EST> <Error> <JDBC> <Cannot startup

Can somebody point me out if i am doing anything wrong here.
Thanks.
RamanandHi,
Sure. Your URL should be "jdbc:oracle:thin:@myOracleServer:1521:myDBName"
not "jdbc.oracle.thin:@myOracleServer:1521:myDBName"

  • Connectivity Problem with WPF Viewer and Oracle based imbedded reports

    I've been using code to modify the Database, Username and Password in imbedded reports for quite a few years.  Whether I was using C++ V6 or C# in VS2008, the process has been basically the same.  Now I am trying to use the WPF Viewer in VS2010 and am getting an "ORA-00942: table or view does not exist" error.  I perform a successful Connectivity Test and receive the error when I'm trying to view the report. 
    If I comment out all of the code that sets the source of the data and performs the connectivity test, the report shows up in the viewer and I'm presented a logon window similar to what I see when i design the RPT file in Crystal Reports. i.e the "Server Name:" shows the name of the Oracle Database I used when I designed the report; the "Database: " is empty; the "Login ID:" displays an edit box and contains the User ID I used when designing the report; and the "Password: " displays an edit box in which I type the password.  Once I click on the OK button, the report is displayed in the WPF viewer.
    Here is the code starting after I have loaded the report into a ReportDocument:
    if(report.IsLoaded)
      CrystalDecisions.Shared.TableLogOnInfo crTableLogonInfo;
      CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Tables crTables = report.Database.Tables;
      foreach(CrystalDecisions.CrystalReports.Engine.Table crTable in crTables)
        crTableLogonInfo = crTable.LogOnInfo;
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.LogonProperties.Clear( );
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Attributes.Collection.Clear( );
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = null;
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = MyDatabase;
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = MyUsername;
        crTableLogonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = MyPassword;
        crTable.ApplyLogOnInfo(crTableLogonInfo);
      report.SetParameterValue("StartingCPID", "AAAAAA");
      report.SetParameterValue("EndingCPID", "ZZZZZZ");
      if(report.Database.Tables[0].TestConnectivity())
        reportViewer.ViewerCore.ReportSource = report;
        reportViewer.ToggleSidePanel = SAPBusinessObjects.WPF.Viewer.Constants.SidePanelKind.None;
      else
        MessageBox.Show("Unable to Connect to Database in report.");
    Any idea what I'm doing wrong or what is different in this version?

  • IIOP connection from JDeveloper does not work

    I'm trying to run some sample EJB programs but cannot connect to the IIOP port from JDeveloper. I have installed Oracle 8.1.7 Enterprise on my machine, and it includes a listening location for IIOP on port 2481 under the listener. I can connect to JServer on this database from DBA Studio using various user/passwords, so the IIOP connection seems to work in principle.
    But when I try to set up an IIOP connection from JDeveloper (v.3.1.1.2), the "Test" button fails to connect, but does not give any details on the reason for the error.
    I have tried using the command line utility sess_sh, but this fails telling me the URL is invalid, even though it is exactly the same as the URL I connected to in DBA Studio.
    Why can I connect from DBA Studio but not from JDeveloper, and can anyone tell me how to get this connection to work?
    (It shouldn't be this hard to get a simple "Hello world" EJB to work!)
    Thanks,
    Chris

    You must use Jdev 3.2.x to communicate with RDBMS 8.1.7.
    Jdev 3.1.x.x is for RDBMS 8.1.6.

  • IIOP Connection Problem to 8i on Linux

    Hi,
    I have installed Oracle 8.1.5 on Linux (Red Hat 6.1 -Kernel 2.2.12) Listener is configured for IIOP connection. When I issue the command
    sess_sh -u scott/tiger -s sess_iiop://192.168.6.121:2481:eswap
    from the linux box it connects to the orb shell.
    When I try the same command from another machine in the network I get the error
    Cannot connect to service: sess_iiop://192.168.6.121:2481:eswap
    I am able to connect to the database from this machine using sqlplus.
    What is that I am missing here? Do I need to add this port (2481) in the /etc/services file. My listener is named as lsnreswap, and the only entry that I have made in
    /etc/services is
    lsnreswap 1521/tcp
    Or is there any other reason for this?
    I need to get this functional urgently to try deployment of ejb from JDeveloper
    Any help is highly appreciated.
    Thanx

    Hi,
    Thanx for the tip. Listener.log shows all the
    iiop connections as establish. There are no firewall between the client and server. And the listener name is back to the default one.
    Still the problem remains same.
    But I found out some interesting thing. Earlier my db was running with only the iiop in mts mode. (ie
    mts_dispatchers="(PROTOCOL=tcp)(PRE=oracle.aurora.server.SGiopServer)" only was there in init.ora) I put this to init.ora
    mts_dispatchers="(protocol=tcp)(DISP=2)(MUL=off)(pool=off)" to make net 8 connections also in mts mode.
    After this when I try to connect from a client machine using sqlplus I'm getting this error
    ORA-12545 - Connect failed because targer host or object does not exist.
    I'm able to do a tnsping. Listener log shows the connection as establish. But I'm able to get the connection only through dedicated mode. So I have a feeling that this has something to do with the mts and not with the listener.
    However I am able to connect from within my linux box using sqlplus as well as sess_sh, using iiop. v$session table shows the connection as 'shared' too.
    Any idea what could be the reason?
    Thanx,
    Gopal

  • Connect problem with db link and scheduler_jobs on 10.2.0.4.0

    hello guys
    i have got this problem, i hope someone can help me to understand and solve it.
    I have a pl/sql procedure where is referenced a table on a db_link. I own all the grants needed, and if i recall it in an anonymous block, it seems to work.
    i.e
    create or replace procedure routine_1 is
    v_app varchar2(1);
    begin
    select 'x'
    into v_app
    from other_user.some_table@my_db_link
    where rownum<2;
    end routine_1;
    Instead, while recalling it from a job scheduled with dba_scheduler package, with the same user, while opening the cursor where the db link table is referenced, i got a connect error:
    ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    ORA-02063: preceding line from xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the db link)
    i would like to understand where i am mistaking. I already checked the user for the connection in the scheduled job and is the same of the anonymous block call.
    thanks in advance
    Claudio

    hello dracis
    thanks for the new answer.
    i have not access to metalink. Anyway, oracle version is 10g not 11.
    Anyway, about dbms_job package (Scheduler is the newer version of dbms_job), i found a phrase on a site saying this:
    "Jobs that reference database links will fail if the database link is not fully qualified with the username and password. This is another subtle consequence of the execution environment of jobs."
    Probably the cause is that the db link, to work, must be owned by the same user that owns the procedure where is referenced. In this way we hope ownername and password are in some way accessible.
    We are trying to check this solution, but we have to wait for some grants.

  • Problem with Java 5 and Oracle 10g JDBC driver

    Hi All,
    Currently we upgrade our web application to Java 5 and Oracle 10.2 JDBC driver. And we encountered a bug, when the user entered the information through UI and data didn't store into database (Oracle 9i). The problem is that this bug is not happend so often maybe once a day and this did not happen before we upgraded to Java 5 and Oracle 10.2 JDBC driver. Does anyone encounter the same problem ? Is this Java 5 problem or Oracle JDBC driver problem ?
    Thanks,

    sounds like a database problem...
    Are you using a driver version that's supported for your database engine?
    What else did you change? We once ran into a major bug in our application that had for 5 years been masked by performance problems in our hardware and infrastructure.
    Once those were resolved the bug showed itself and caused tens of thousands of records to be erroneously inserted into our database every day.
    It's certainly NOT a problem with your JVM (if it's a decent one, like the Sun implementation).
    So it's either your database, your driver, your network (dropping packets???), or your application.
    The upgrade may just have exposed something that was already there.

  • How to connect using netbean 6.5 and oracle lite 10g

    Hello everyone.. I am really really new in this kind of thing. My task is that I need to develop a simple system using netbean and oracle lite 10g..Does anyone can at least give me a little bit tutorial for a head start in order to connect them.. I really appreciate for those who answer this.. Thank you guys...

    you mean to connect from java to oracle lite server or client?
    -if it is server you mean then you probably need to run some oracle apis (e.g. the consolidator aps).
    String url="MOBILEADMIN/123@jdbc:oracle:thin:@MYSERVER:1521:MYDB" ;
    ResourceManager.initialize(url);
    rm = ResourceManager.getInstance();
    User usr = rm.getUser(user);
    for (Enumeration e = usr.getDevices(); e.hasMoreElements();) {
    Device dev = (Device)e.nextElement();
    }//AND you may continue from here in order to send commands to the devices
    -if you have a oracle repository at the back end and you want to connect to that then you can connect like:
    DriverManager.registerDriver ((Driver)Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver").newInstance ());
    String url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@myserver:port:database;
    c=DriverManager.getConnection( url,"username", "password" );
    s=c.createStatement();
    s.executeQuery("Select TRIM(CODES) AS CODES,TRIM(SURNAME)||'_'||TRIM(FIRSTNAME) AS NAME from MYDB.USERS");
    ResultSet rs =s.getResultSet();
    -now if you want to connect to the oracle lite client database then you may connect using the polite
    you should write something like (i havent tried it because i use handheld clients)
    String ConnectMe=("jdbc:polite:SCOTT/tiger:polite;DataDirectory=c:\Oracle_Home;Database=polite;IsolationLevel=SINGLE;USER;Autocommit=ON;CursorType=DYNAMIC")
    try {
    Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection(ConnectMe)
    catch (SQLException e)
    (check the internet for jdbc:polite connection strings)

  • 5230 connection problems on Software update and Ov...

    Hi,
    I recently bought a 5230 on a talk mobile monthly contract and I'v had a few connection problems. First of all I can't check for updates for my phone or the software on it. I just get an error message which says 'connection error'.
    Similarly with Maps it simply won't connect to the internet saying 'something went wrong with the connection, please try again'.
    The other internet accessing functions of the phone, like the browser and ovi store etc, work fine. Does anybody have any ideas as to what the problem might be?

    I am on Pay & Go with o2 which includes web - same old prob with accessing ovi maps - will not allow connection to the internet - in spite of apparently managing to update the latest software - as o2 suggested.  Don't know what to do or where to go next for help.  Nokia support - zero - wish to hell I had never bought the phone as it has caused me no end of grief - time for an iPhone methinks!

  • Connection problem between sap bw and EAI

    Hi
    Please
    I'd like to know why people who work on the part of my EAI project say there is a connection problem between eai and SAP BW. He explained that the connection is good at 12h AM and 16h PM the system was disconnected, he receive this error message:
    System.ServiceModel.Security.MessageSecurityException: The HTTP request is Unauthorized with customer authentication scheme 'Basic'. The authentication header received from the server was' Basic realm = "SAP NetWeaver Application Server [DB1/100].
    I like to know if this is a problem with sap bw (misconfiguration of authorisations) or at the eai.
    Cordialy

    Hello,
    we have 2 possiblities in BW to get data into BW.
    1) pull
    2) push
    I understodd that you want to push data to BW. Please have a look into the Howto paper: https://www.sdn.sap.com/sdn/developerareas/bi.sdn?contenttype=url&content=/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sapportals.km.docs/documents/a1-8-4/how to send xml data to bw

    If you want to connect an external system to BW and extract data to BW and the BW system is the leading system.
    You need a RFC server, or UD connect (https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.km.cm.docs/library/uuid/943de6c3-0401-0010-b7a4-8b1af193f642) or you can use db connect or you can extract flat files.
    All of these possibilies are decribed in the online help and in howto papers.
    hope this helps

  • Connection Problems Between iChat 3 and iChat 4 Workaround

    Maybe this info will help others:
    iChat 4/Leopard users must initiate video chat to iChat 3/Tiger users:
    I have discovered that if an iChat 4/Leopard user initiates the video chat to an iChat3/Tiger user, it works, but if the iChat3/Tiger user initiates the video chat with an iChat 4/Leopard user it fails with a message saying that the receiver declined the invitation (even if the receiver tried to accept). This happens on a LAN as well as across the Internet.
    Likewise, to make conference video chats, make sure the iChat 4/Leopard user initiates, then adds the other parties.
    This post is NOT about iChat Server, although the problem occurs there too. If you are using iChat Server (part of OSX Server) see http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=5995966 ).

      public void writeExternal(ObjectOutput stream) throws IOException
      { stream.writeUTF(rootNode.toString());

    Dear all,
    I have found a solution for this error. We could use Oracle 10.2 g on HP-UX v11.31. However, when you do the installation, command will be: "./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs".
    The steps to install oracle client are following ( $ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME):
    1) su - oracle
    2) Download Oracle 10.2g HP-UX Itanium "10gr2_client_hpi.zip"
    3) unzip the file : "jar xvf 10gr2_client_hpi.zip " . The new folder name "client"
    4) cd client; ./runInstaller -ignoreSysPrereqs
    After that, you need to remove the $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so and link to new file
    5) rm $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so
    6) ln -s $ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so.10.1 $ORACLE_HOME/lib/libclntsh.so
    7) export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME/lib:$TIMESTEN_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/lib
    8) export PATH=$ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME/bin:$PATH
    Then you need to restart the TimesTen Daemon so that it could get the new system parameters
    9) ttDaemonAdmin -restart
    if you do not restart the TimesTen Daemon, you could get the error:
    Command> call ttCacheStart;
    10024: Could not start cache agent for the requested data store. Could not initialize OCI function pointers. Error: none
    The command failed.
    And finally, the CacheConnect is up

  • Connection problems using Macbook pro and 3rd gen firewire ipod

    Hello,
    I have been trying to get my girlfriends old 3rd gen ipod to synch on our mac but when connected, the ipod charges but is not recognised at all by the mac. nothing shows up in itunes, or the desktop but the ipod is definitely charging and connected fine. I was told by someone that the newer versions of itunes are not back compatible with these older ipods so ive wiped itunes, reinstalled the earliest mac version i can find (7.4) with no success. I cant find any mac versions older than this although windows versions are readily available.
    anyone had a similar problem and know how to remedy this incredibly annoying problem?
    thank you very much for your time.

    is there a work around
    Not with an eMac, iMac, or iBook.
