Instant client with Oracle 8i server

I am pretty new to Oracle.
I just installed instant client on my xp workstation, and set up all the variable. I am trying to connect to a Oracle 8i server.
Can instant client connect to Oracle 8i?
Thank you!

Although the 10.1.0.3 instant client for windows doesn't appear to be "officially out", if I try to download
http://download.oracle.com/otn/nt/instantclient/instantclient-basic-win32-10.1.0.3.zip and similar files, the files do exist.
Unfortunately this version still can't connect to my corporate Oracle database:
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.6.0.0, 64 bit - Production
With the Partitioning option
JServer Release 8.1.6.0.0 - Production
Oh well, back to a full client install of Oracle 9i.
Perhaps the official release when its documented on the Instant Client download page will work.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Oracle 7 Client with Oracle 9 Server

Hello,
I was wondering what are the advanatges of using Oracle 7 client with Oracle 9 Server versus using Oracle 9 Client with Oracle 9 server.

Some years ago I used 7.3 Client with 9i DB, and I don't remember of particular problems, but I'm speaking of Sql*Plus only. Are there specific problems ?
Of course the best thing is to install one 9i Client (did you already do it ?) : if there are same problems, then that's not compatibility issue.
And what are advantages of using 9 Client with 9 server other than 7 is no longer supported.You're sure you won't have compatibility problems.

Instant Client with SQLServer2005 Linked Server

I have successfully installed Instant Client 11.2.0.1.0 on my Windows Server2008. I am able to create an ODBC data source selecting the driver "Oracle in instantclient_11_2". I have also been able to link tables from Access to Oracle. I can logon to Oracle through SQLPlus and execute a query against the Oracle database. I am unsure how to set a Linked Server object in SqlServer 2005. When I use "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" and supply the Product - DBName and Data Source - ODBC data source previously created here is the error I receive:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
"The linked server has been created but failed a connection test. Do you want to keep the linked server?"
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "DB1".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "DB1" returned message "Specified driver could not be loaded due to system error 1114 (Oracle in instantclient_11_2).". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)

Oracle 8i client with oracle 9i server

hi friends..
i have oracle 8i server and clients..my oracle 8i server crashed.
so i am planning to install oracle 9i server.
will i be able to connect oracle 8i clients on to oracle 9i server? is there any procedure for getting this connection.?
Please help

Look up the documentation for questions like this, under 'backwards compatibility'
You can't configure a client to work with a higher release, it works or it doesn't work.
This one will work.

Instant Client with full client (Solaris)

Hi,
Does the Instant Client come with the full install of Oracle on Solaris, or if there is an option to? Any resources explaining this; I have had a good search on the net but cannot find anything.
I would like to know when libociei.so would be provided, whether this is ever available with the full client. I know this comes with the Instant Client but wasn't sure if it would ever come with the full client/database, or if there was an alternative file that should used.
Thanks.

You are a bit vague.
What do you mean by "Oracle"? Client, Server, ...?
And what Solaris do you have?
You can install Instant Client with the Client installation CD, see
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15692/install_overview.htm#i1106622
or
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/install.102/b15699/install_overview.htm#i1106622
depending on your taste of Solaris.
Alternatively, cou can download Instant Client from http://www.oracle.com.
libociei.so is part of the Instant Client installation, and of Instant Client only.
It is a replacement for the message files and other resource files that come with other Oracle products.
Does that answer your question?
Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Instant Client With MS VS-2005

Hi all,
does anyone have an idea how to install Oracle Instant client to work with MS Visual Studio 2005 on client machines.
I am working on a VB application using Oracle 10gR2 database. Should I install Full Oracle Client on each Client PC , or can I install Instant Client ?
Thanks

I tested the Oracle Instant Client with a Oracle 9i release 2 server running on Windows with Visual Studio.net 2005 enterprise.
Here are my tips concerning environment variables:
1. make sure no other oracle directory is in your PATH
2. set your PATH to point to your instant client
3. set your TNS_ADMIN to point to where you tnsnames.ora file is located
4. set your NLS_LANG
5. set your ORACLE_HOME to your instant client
For me, I set NLS_LANG to
http://download-east.oracle.com/docs/html/A95493_01/gblsupp.htm#634282
I verified this was using the correct client software by using the sqlplus add-on to the instant client.
For me, I set:
SET NLS_LANG=AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252
Note: before you make any changes, back up your Oracle registry key (if exist) and backup the string for any environment variables.

I have configured OID 10.1.4.0.1 and MRCA 10.1.4.0.1 on database 10.2.0.3 with Oracle Application Server 10.1.3.3 (HTTP Server and OC4J Server). it went well, i could login into my oid or sso page. then i deployed a simple jar file into OAS 10.1.3.3 and i updated few lines in mod_osso.conf on midtier 10.1.3.3, so it look like this :

Instant client for Oracle 8.1.6

Hi, I need some previous version of instant client for ODBC. Current version needs at least Oracle 8.1.7. Is it possible to download ODBC instant client with support for 8.1.6?
Thanks
Paja

In my testing, the 10g full client will only connect to 8.1.7.4 and later databases. I beleive the 10g Instant Client would have the same restrictions.
If you have an 8.1.6 back end, you would need to install a 9i full client to connect or to purchase a third-party wire-protocol ODBC driver that supports 8.1.6. The Instant Client is a new 10g feature.

How to use JavaMail 1.4 with Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4.0.0)

Hi all,
I'd like to know if it's possible and how to use JavaMail 1.4 with Oracle Application Server 10g (9.0.4.0.0), Windows version.
With the following code, I can see that the mail.jar used by the server is the one included in the jdk installation :
// I'm testing InternetAddress.class because I want to use commons-email-1.2.jar that requires mail.jar 1.4 (or higher) and activation.jar 1.1 (or higher)
// and I know that inside the commons-email-1.2.jar file, I need to call the InternetAddress.validate() method that throws a java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress.validate()V if it is used with mail.jar 1.2.
Class cls = javax.mail.internet.InternetAddress.class;
java.security.ProtectionDomain pDomain = cls.getProtectionDomain();
java.security.CodeSource cSource = pDomain.getCodeSource();
java.net.URL location = cSource.getLocation();
System.out.println(location.toString());
This code returns : file:/C:/oracle/app/jdk/jre/lib/ext/mail.jar and this mail.jar file has an implementation version number: 1.2
- I've tried to include my own mail.jar (1.4.2) and activation.jar (1.1.1) files in the war file that I deploy, but it doesn't work (the server still uses the same mail.jar 1.2)
- I've tried to put the mail.jar (1.4.2) and activation.jar (1.1.1) files in the applib directory of my OC4J instance, but it doesn't work (the server still uses the same mail.jar 1.2)
- I know that a patch exists : I've read the following document: How to Make Libraries such as mail.jar and activation.jar Swappable ? [ID 552432.1]
This article talks about the Patch 6514136, but this patch only applies to : Oracle Containers for J2EE - Version: 10.1.3.3.0
Can you please help me ?
Thanks in advance for your answers,
Laurent

I strongly suggest to upgrade to AS 10.1.3 to get this.
Think of future support of AS 9.0.4. You will get not critical patch updates anymore.

Deployment Manager Error with Oracle Weblogic Server 10.3.1

I have installed Identity Manager 9.1.0.2 (patch upgraded from 9.1.0.1) on OEL 5.3 64bit and Weblogic 10.3.1
Database:Oracle 11gR2 (remote machine).
**I am aware that IM 9.1.0.2 is not certified on Weblogic 10.3.1 (it is only certified on 10.3),
The installation was successful and OIManager is up and running. Able to create Users, Resources etc. as well.
As part of configuring OIM Connectors tried to Import .xml file using Import option from Deployment Management section as below and the following error was displayed.
"Either your session timed out or you are trying to access a page without logging in".
Did all workarounds like enabling java, changing browsers, restarting machine etc as per the below discussion but in vain.
Deployment Manager Error with Oracle Weblogic Server
Can any one suggest any workaround or solution for this problem.
Or atleast can any one confirm there is no Identity manager available on this date which is compatible with 10.3.1? and cannot be continued further.
Thanks in Advance
Sudheer
Edited by: SudheerPrabhala on Oct 20, 2009 1:26 AM

You are facing this issue because you're using a non certified combination.
Other folks who tried to use OIM in 10.3.1 ended up in the same problem you're facing.

Advice please: how to link java client with oracle AS

Dear Sirs...
how can i link java swing application with oracle application server? do i have to develop web service and then deploy it on the AS? or i should use another methodology? what exactly should i provide or should i use?
thanks for any help
best regards

There are a number of approaches you can take. A webservice would work well. You may also consider using EJBs and calling them via RMI or a webservice.
Either is a viable option depending on your requirements.

Logon problem with oracle management server

I have problem with Oracle Management Server when I connect to the OMS message comes
The exception (java.lang.NullPointerException) occurred.
if any body have any idea pls tell us

Hi,
Oracle has changed the Enterprise Manager from version 1.5 to 2.0 .
With the new Oracle8i dataase server another service has been added.
If you want to user the OEM you have to install The Managment Server.
The Managment server has its own user and privileges and is recommended when using OEM.

Probelm client auth from jsse client with open ssl server

I tried to connect jsse client with a openssl server.. with clientAuth
This is what i did ..
Using openssl req comand i created a X509 certificate for server and imported the same to java keystore..
The communication works fine without client authentication.
To enable client auth i create client private/public key pair using keytool and exported the public key to a file client.public. and used it in open ssl server .
This is how i invoke the client ..
java
-Djavax.net.debug=all
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStore=cacerts
-Djavax.net.ssl.trustStorePassword=changeit
-Djavax.net.private -Djavax.net.ssl.keyStorePassword=password EchoClient
After which i get following error in server

The client debug says it is recieving a certificate request.. what could be the problem.. can anybody help...

i also have that problem. I was trying to configure SSL in apache in Win XP machine, but this error occurs. Is there anyone, who can help on it?

Correct version of jdeveloper to use with Oracle App Server 10g 10.1.2.0.2

Hi,
I just want to be sure, I am new to JDeveloper and I would just like to verify/ask what correct version of JDeveloper should we use so we could deploy the finished applications on our Oracle Application Server 10g 10.1.2.0.2 without errors?
Looking at this support matrix: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/htdocs/11/as_supportmatrix.html#1013
I think we can use JDeveloper 10g (10.1.2)?
I downloaded Jdeveloper 10.1.2 from this link: http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/jdev/htdocs/soft10g.html.
Will this work well with Oracle Application Server 10g 10.1.2.0.2?
Thank you very much,
