Installing ODBC Drivers on a Server with multiple users.

We are trying to install ODBC drivers on our web server and want to know what is the minimum we can install and be able to add a DSN through the MS ODBC Administrator. This is a server that is used by multiple companies and we do not want to do something that will affect them.
The oracle installation does not warn you when it overwrites existing files, which is why we cannot simply install everything. For example, on my test machine it trashed the Java installation without asking or telling me. I discovered it this morning when I tried to go to a site that uses Java. That was a low risk on the SQL server, because we did not have Java installed. Other elements, though, cannot be risked in that fashion. We have to find out what files are required in order to solve the problem.

Version 9i on a Windows 2003 Server.

1) I’m not certain about the overwrite vs separate machine. What happened is that it installed its own Java, which was much older than the Java previously installed. Following the oracle installation, internet explorer was no longer able to find Java at all, prompting for a new Java installation. During the installation, no mention was made of the changes that were being made.
2) Each company has its own account on our server, its own instance of the database, etc. nowhere in the oracle release notes or the installer could I find anything that provided for a user-limited installation: it was global. Even though the oracle installation suggested, and I accepted, unique folders for its installation targets, the problems mentioned occurred. The web server it wants to install is not possible to be user-limited: it wanted to take over http for the machine.

  • Dreamweaver on a server with multiple users

    We have just recently migrated from GoLive to DW and that
    went well. However it was only on my local machine. I need to set
    up our sites in DW to access our local server so that my colleagues
    can access the sites as well.
    What is the recommended way of doing this? Set up the local
    site with the server address? What about remote and testing
    servers. I still feel I need to manually move our files out to our
    stage site and live site as we have to login to those servers to
    access them. Any advice?

    Which, by the way, is the only way that checkin/checkout will

  • Login credentials server with multiple users on 1 Mac

    The situation is a MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion connecting to a Mac Mini.
    The MacBook Pro has 3 users with administrator rights:
    A, B and C.
    When user B is logged in and wants to connect to the Mac mini, the login dialog shows the credentials of user A by default.
    This happens also after a re-start and first login by user B.
    How can I have the system forget the login credentials in the above case so that user B can have the correct default user name in the login window?
    Thanks for your help.

    While logged in as User B, open Keychain Access. Find the password entry for connecting to the mini and delete it.
    Then, try to log in again. User B likely used User A's login info at some point, maybe testing, to connect to the mini, so those credentials were saved in the keychain.

  • How to install ODBC drivers ALONE in OUI?

    Hi, I need to install ODBC drivers in oracle clients, so I choose "Customized" installation and then the "Oracle Windows Interfaces" component. However, OUI will also try to intall the Microsoft Transaction Server component under the previous mentioned node, and also "Oracle Object for OLE" and "Oracle Provider for OLE DB".
    The question is: how can I install the ODBC drivers ALONE? I want to keep my clients with the minimal possible installation.
    Thank you in advance.
    Leandro.

    Have you looked at the 10g Instant Client? That's going to be a lot smaller and a lot easier to install.

  • Sql server with multiple instance

    hi  All,
    i want  to  install sql server with two instance   and i want  to assign two  separate is  ips   for  both   default instance  and named  instance   and  both   should  work like
    two different server
    note:  If i  logged  with  one  ip(default instance)   it should  show  its  own  databases  not both or  named   instance  databases
    thanks 
     chintala

    Hi chintala,
    According to your description, if you want to assign the two different IP to stand for default instance 
    and named  instance, I recommend you set up aliases on a SQL Server with multiple instances. For example, a physical server is named WinServer and 2 instances of SQL Server named WinServer and WinServer\instance1.
    We need to add 1 IP addresse to the WinServer, there is one IP address already assigned to WinServer, 192.168.1.1, by adding one new IP's, 192.168.1.2 .
    We need to move into DNS to configure our host names and aliases.  The physical machine must be steup as a static IP in DNS. SQLAlias1, which point to the default instance on WinServer, will be setup as a DNS with an address of 192.168.1.1.
    SQLAlias2, which will point to WinServer\Instance1, will be setup as a new Host (A) record in DNS with an address of 192.168.1.2.
    When everything has been completed on the DNS side, you need to open up SQL Server Configuration Manager on WinServer and configure the protocols for each instance one at a time, restart the 3 SQL services.
    For more information about how to set up aliases on a SQL Server with multiple instances, you can review the similar article.

  • How to control one server with multiple clients via TCP/IP

    I am wanting to control a single server with multiple clients.  Only one client would be active at a time, so there would be no conflict.  I want to use TCP/IP.  So far, I have programmed a cluster that passes data back to the server with no problems.  The challenge come in when a second client is added to the mix.  I have't been able to figure out how to turn each client on and send the appropriate data and then turn it off so it doesn't keep sending the same data to the server. 
    Here are the things that I have considered and did some preliminary testing, but don't really know how to impliment:
    1.  Send a numeric on the front of the cluster packet that tells the server that data is on the way.
    2.  Send a boolean on the front of the cluster packet to somehow turn the server TCP/IP on.
    The problem I have found is that LabVIEW TCP/IP doesn't like to be turned on and off.  If it doesn't get the data it expects, it goes into a reset mode and that kills the response time.
    Any help?

    You should consider implementing a set of simple one-byte commands that can be sent back and forth between the Server and the Clients. You can base all of these ideas off the example in the Example Finder under Networking >> TCP and UDP called Multiple Connections - Server.
    You will have two loops in the server VI: one to wait for new connections, and one to send and receive data from the existing connections. For instance, after one of the clients connects, it can request control of the server to send data to it by sending the character "R" for request. Every time the send/receive loop of the Server executes, the first thing it can do is to check all the existing connections to see if any of the clients have sent a control request ("R"). If so, it will create a buffer (array) of control requests. This could be in the form of Connection IDs or indexes in the array for a particular Connection ID. Your choice.
    After the Server receives a request for contol, if it is not already under control by another client, then it can send a response to the first client on the control request list. For instance, the server could send the first client a "S" command for send. Note that after the clients send their control request, they should execute a TCP Read and wait indefinitely for the server to respond with the one-byte "S" command. Then, once the client in control is finished sending data to the server, it could send the character "X" telling the Server to release it from control.
    The example I mentioned above already does a similar thing. Note how when a client wants to disconnect, they send the letter "Q". You can see this in the Multiple Connections - Client VI. The Server then checks each individual connection to see if it's received this one-byte command, and if it has, it closes the connection to the client. This is what you would want to implement, but instead of having just one command, you'll have to distinguish between a few and build up a buffer of control requests.
    Finally, if a client does decide to disconnect in your application, they could send the command "Q" just like the example above. At this point, close the connection and remove that Connection ID from the array of connections. You will also have to handle the case that this client was in the request control waiting line when it disconnected, in which case you need to delete it from that array as well.
    This will definitely work for you, but it will take some work. Best of luck!

  • Issue listeneing queue from Weblogic Cluster server with multiple managed server

    Haveing issue listeneing queue from Weblogic Cluster server with multiple managed server.
    Weblogic Cluster structure is like
    Weblogic Cluster01
      --ManagedServer01(http://server01.myhost.com:7001)
      --ManagedServer02(http://server02.myhost.com:7001)

    Uniform Distributed Queue in Monitoring tab showing like this
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01
    So when I am sending message to any Host(by specifying the provider URL) its distributing equally on both server like
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01 10
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01 10
    But when try to listen message from these queue, it is listening from one server, for which URL given to connect.
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver01@UDQueue01 0
      mysystemmodule!JMSserver02@UDQueue01 10
    untill I connect to other server by giveing its URL, will not able to access other message left on the queue.
    Solutions that tried
      1) we have tried give both server URL coma sparated in provider URL
    we need to configur same scenario for 5 managed server with 3 listener on other servers.
    Do any one have solution for this.

    You need to have:
    1. Consumers connected to each UDQ member
    OR
    2. If no consumers in some of the members is expected, you can configure Forward Delay (specify the amount of time, in seconds, that a queue member with messages, but with no consumers, will wait before forwarding its messages to other queue members that do have consumers):

    How does create a server with multiple Clients ?
    Thanks

    For a multithreaded server you will need a thread to listen and at least one thread per client. If the conversation is half duplex, one thread per client works very well, if it's full duplex you will find one thread to send and one to receive much easier to program.
    I posted a Simple Socket Server that uses 1+2*clients threads.

  • WOL question. SCCM server with multiple nics.

    Hi,
    I have a sccm server with multiple nics, I can wake up any machine using a 3ed party magic packet utility, if I set a schedule and use sccm wol functionally the machine never wakes up. As I pointed out my server has multiple nics, does anyone have a sccm
    server with multiple nics with sccm built in wol functionally working?. I am curious on how you achieved this.

    Hey Garth,
    Yes the problem is solved but we had to buy a 3rd party power management utility to accomplish WOL. Because we have many different subnets in our environment we found that this was the fastest way to get WOL working,
    So out of the box SCCM would not work for us, with a 3rd party utility that had an SCCM plugin WOL now works flawlessly.

  • Iphoto/preview crashing with multiple user accounts

    Hi everybody,
    I'm stuck for a while now with my iMac and parental controlled user accounts.
    It's for a few months now iPhoto and Preview keep crashing at starting up in these other accounts.
    All works fine in my own administrator account. I'll copy a the first part of the crash state, maybe that will help.
    I think the problem started with connecting a photocamera (Sony W125) directly to the computer.
    It seems that viewing pictures (PDF/iphoto) is corrupted in this way.
    I'm working on an late 2011 iMac 2,5 Ghz Intel Core i5 /12GB 1333 / OSX 10.7.5
    Allready done:
    removed plists
    repaired permissions
    re-installed Lion
    re-installed iPhoto
    give full permissions too all other accounts (checking out parental control i.o.w.)
    made a new user acount with full permissions except administrator function (also crashes of iPhoto)
    tried some searching in Root-account but where afraid to damage stuff.
    looked around on the web but I couldn't find people with the same problem
    Thanks a lot for your help in advance.

    After searching the web and the discussion here, here's my minimal impact solution for multiple Macs with multiple users in a household:
    1) Set up Mac1 for myself only
    2) Set up Mac2 for the wife and kid
    3) Set up each Mac to backup to the Airport base station using Time Machine (this would create two separate backups on the Airport base station's drive, which from what I've read has its own problems)
    4) On Mac1 setup "empty user accounts" for the wife and kid. These will not have any files in them - just an access mechanism. If they want to access their files, they can use Time Machine's "The Browse Other Backup Disks Option" to get their file from Mac2, work on it and then drop it in the Shared Folder. Next time they are on Mac2, remember to copy the updated/created file from the Shared Folder into their Mac2 user account. If possible, get Time Machine to not backup the "empty user accounts".
    5) Do the same for me on Mac2.
    Not the most elegant solution, but until Apple get off their backside and make this seamless, I can't think of anything else :-( .
    P.S. iCloud is not a soluton since it costs hundreds of dollars a year, uses up intenet data allowance and is slow.

  • Sharing iTunes on a single computer with multiple users

    Greetings,
    I have been troubleshooting a problem sharing iTunes on a single computer with multiple users that cropped up a few weeks ago and have not had very good luck.
    Several months ago I successfully set up my wife’s G4 Laptop (PowerPC processor) so that we could share iTunes on that computer. I had just gotten her an “My Book” external hard drive (Western Digital). The iTunes Library will go on this new unit because the internal drive was running out of room. I successfully set the privileges, moved the entire library onto a “Share” directory and everything worked fine.
    In this way, when I got a new CD I could add it to iTunes (under my login, administrator privileges) and she could access it (under her login) to listen to while working on the computer or using her iPod. This arrangement went well for quite awhile.
    About a month and a half ago, when I tried to launch iTunes from my login I received this message:
    “The iTunes Library file is locked, on a locked disk, or you do not have write permission for this file.”
    I think the permissions must have changed when there was an update because my wife is pretty careful about what she does on her computer. Updates were the only thing I could think of that had changed since I had set her computer up. I also noticed that some of the iTunes defaults were different from the last time I had used it to add a CD.
    So, I did some reading and went back through the motions of trying to set it up again. I re-formatted the My Book hard drive to Mac OS Extended (Journaled) added the files back to the external, reset permissions on the external hard drive. (Owners: System, Access: read and write - Group: wheel, Access: read and write – Others: read and write).
    When I now launch iTunes under my login I get this message:
    “The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficient privileges for some of the items.”
    What gives? I am the original owner and have always had top-level privileges.
    Can someone point me to any articles or clues as to how I need to set-up iTunes on a single computer to be shared by more than one user? Also, I am considering upgrading to the newer system in a few weeks, so if a solution for OS X 10.5 is available, that would work too.

    Was your wife logged into the libray at the time you tried to log in? I have had a similar problem and it was because another user was logged into the library when I attempted to. I got the permission denied banner.

  • New Mac User: iTunes Auth with multiple user accounts

    With a Mac with multiple user accounts, does EACH user account need to have iTunes authorized, or is iTunes authorized for an entire mac machine?

    So then I assume that iTunes will know then if each of the computer's user accounts has a different iTunes account?
    When you authorize an iTunes account on your computer, the authorization info is stored in \Users\Shared\. When you run iTunes, it looks there to see if it can play purchases. The purchase account info is embedded into each purchased file.
