Instant, debian, odbc, 64-bit: can I mix'em up?

hello All,
I need to access an XE database from an Ubuntu Karmic desktop 64-bit, via ODBC/Openoffice Base.
After many hours spent googling and trying, I have come to the conclusion that it won't work.
The error I get, seems related to an unresolved bug:
isql: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/oracle/instantclient_10_2/libsqora.so.10.1: undefined symbol: SQLGetPrivateProfileStringW
Can I use the 32-bit instant client instead, or have I got to start with a 32-bit desktop?
thanks for your time,
-Gian

I believe that you are suffering from the problem described in Metalink note 762206.1.
In that case the problem is that your version of unixODBC is too old, and you should get 2.2.12 or later.
Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN

Instant Client on 64-bit Windows 7: Driver does not appear in System DSN tab when creating a new Data source.
What I did so far:
I downloaded the basic and odbc zips for Window 64-bit.
Unzipped the basic zip.
Unzipped the odbc zip to the same directory.
Added the dir path to the System Environment Variable called Path.
Double-clicked on the odbc_install.exe to run it from Windows Explorer.
Then I tried to add the driver to create a new data source but it does not appear in the list of drivers.
From a cmd window, I navigated to the instant client directory and tried to run odbc_install again.
I got the message: Oracle ODBC Driver with same name already exists.
What am I missing?

hello, I did it like that you say,but the result also is "oracle odbc driver with same name already exists". I don't kown what can I do it ,Thank you!

Help Using Instant Client ODBC on Linux

I am familiar with using ODBC and visual basic under Windows. I would like to use the Oracle instant client ODBC under Red Hat ES3 within a C or C++ program to access an Oracle database.
Where can I find documentation related to this:
a) setting up an ODBC connection on Linux
b) installing the Oracle instant client on Linux
c) building an application with Oracle instant client ODBC
Am I correct in assuming that any C/C++ ODBC code examples from windows could also be used on Linux.
Thanks,
Werner

We are also interested in the very same thing. We are using third party compiler called SIMSCRIPT from CACI which has a module called SDBC for database connectivity. SDBC requires ODBC to be installed/configured. Our application is for Linux, therefore we are interested in using the ODBC driver on Linux clients to connect Oracle database servers on Linux and Sparc. I see the odbc related zip (for 10g) and rpm (for 11g) instant client files on the OTN Instant Client download page. How to install/configure odbc instant client? Is there a document/whitepaper/Metalink Note ?
Thank you

Problem accessing informix ODBC 32 bit System DSN using Microsoft Query external data sources in Microsoft Excel 2010

Hi all...
I'm hoping if anybody could help me. I'm using Microsoft Excel 2010 + Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. I've installed the informix client sdk for odbc drivers to create odbc 32 bit connection. Before this, i had successfully installed in
another Windows 7 Professional 64 bit PC the informix client drivers and configured the odbc connection for it. During that time, i can access the 32 bit ODBC using the microsoft query from the Microsoft Excel 2007. But now...in the new PC, even though i had
successfully installed the informix client and manage to configure the 32 bit ODBC for it, my Microsoft Excel 2010 can't call/recognise the 32 bit ODBC connection as if the Microsoft Excel 2010 only called the 64 bit ODBC. Is it in Microsoft excel 2007
it is possible to recognise the 32 bit ODBC but the Microsoft Excel 2010 can't? Is there any solution if my Microsoft Excel 2010 still want to use the 32 bit ODBC connection.

Hi,
Excel 2007 has only 32-bit since 64-bit applications for Office are available only for Office 2010. Thus, you can use
32 bit ODBC between Microsoft Excel 2007 & Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. Now, you are using Microsoft Excel 2010 64 bit & Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, thus, you must install the 64 bit ODBC drive. If you still need to use 32
bit odbc drive, please use 32 bit Excel 2010. Here is the detailed steps:

Instant-client odbc installation

I am trying to connect to remote database using R .So i downloaded client-basic-nt and instant-client -odbc from oracle .Unzipped both of them in the same folder and then tried to run odbc_install.exe.
It doesn't give me an error but it i feel it just doesn't execute and escapes .First i thought that it did install the client but i cant see any sqlnet.ora files and tnsname.ora file .In fact i cant find oracle/network directory ?can anyone suggest me is there another set of installation i require before this step ?

this is how I installed Instant client:
1.downloaded oracle client extracted to C:\Oracle Client\
all the files extracted are in the folder as you see here C:\Oracle Client\instantclient_11_2
2.created a C:\Oracle Client\tnsnames.ora
make sure you have the db connection details you want to connect to in this tns file
3. set env. variables. (I hope you know how to do this in windows)
Variable name : TNS_ADMIN Variable value : C:\Oracle Client
Variable name : LD_LIBRARY_PATH Variable value : C:\Oracle Client\instantclient_11_2
Variable name : Path Variable value : C:\Oracle Client\instantclient_11_2 (include this to already existing variable 'path')
hope this helps. reply back if you have a question.

Instant client ODBC driver for Linux

I had previously posted this under the ODBC forum, but didn't get a response there.

Hi,
>>a) setting up an ODBC connection on Linux
go to http://www.unixodbc.org/
More information you can take a look on Note:404041.1 from Oracle Metalink

Bit Rate for Mixed angle DVD

What bit rate will give an decent quality image if there are 4 video streams (v1-edited video,v2-4 source angles), 1 ac-3 audio stream, 1 mpeg1 audio stream. Three of the video streams are alternate angles that popup for brief ( 1 to 5 minutes ) periods of time in a 1 hour wedding ceremony. I guest the safe bit rate for all streams is around 8.5, the manuals say the max is 10.3 mbps. Can I mix bitrates for video in a mixed-angle track or do they all need to be the same?, is four video tracks just too much info ?
Thanks for all the help !

One last question; if there are four user selectable streams are you adding up the bitrate for all streams or is the total just the stream that's being played plus any audio that gives you your total ?
thanks

Can I mix memory modules?

I have some memory modules left over from various upgrades and I would like to use them to upgrade my daughter's iMac which is a 2.0 GHz machine using 667 MHz DDR2 SDRAM PC2-5300. I have 1 Gb of that memory from wife's iMac which is the same model but I also have 1Gb of 800 MHz DDR2 SDRAM 6400 from my own 2.4 GHz iMac. Can I install them together in my daughter's machine? If I can't mix them, will the 800 MHz run in it on it's own and would there be any benefit?
I also have some 667 MHz 5300 from my laptop which appears to be the same as that in the 2.0 GHz iMac. Can anybody confirm that? Finally, is there any risk in trying any of the above?
Thanks in advance
Ron

Teufelhunden,
Hi I know you're new so let me try to educate you a little. First is trying to ask a question in someone else's thread is considered rude, it's called thread jacking. I'm sure that wasn't your intent though. Next is if you see a green star by a thread that indicates it has been answered so posting a question in a thread that has already been answered probably isn't even going to be looked at.
I would recommend opening your own thread and I'm sure you will get some people more than willing to answer your question. If I see it I'll help you too! If you need assistance on how to create a thread click above where it says "Expanding your Intel-based iMac" and then you will see a link called *Post new Topic*.

Can I mix Pages page layout and word processing together in one document?

Hello there ! I am quite new to Pages and I am desperate to learn as i want to get rid of everything being Microsoft
As you all know when you open Pages you can choose between page layout and word processing !
the thing is i thought that after using a page layout you could just go with word processing easily... well no, you can't, but i'm sure i'm missing something...
For exemple i really like the catalogue brochure and it would be perfect for me to start a project... but after a few pages, i can just add blank pages and if i want to type text, i have to add text boxes... i don't want that, I want word processing... and another thing in this brochure i can't add table of content because it is not by default in the template...
So my question is quite basic here, can we link Page layout and word processing without having to use text boxes and everything ?
Thanks in advance !
Have a good day

Alexander,
Welcome to Apple discussions.
The simple answer is no. What differentiates page layout from word processing mode is that the PL mode has no text layer. So everything that goes on the page must be an object of some kind. And any pages you add to a PL document must also be PL. You can't mix the two modes. One way around it is to start with a blank page, insert a text box, then stretch the box so that it covers the entire page. You can the type in it as if it were a text layer in a WP file. You can even capture that page so that you can add it automatically when you need it, or save it as a template.
As for building a Table of Contents, it appears that Pages only sees text styles that are on the text layer, which means it won't see styles that are in objects -- which means it won't work with a PL document. From being a long-time reader of this discussion group, I've noticed it's rare that someone wants to add a ToC to a PL document.
If you find that you're going to be mixing text and graphics, start with a word processing template. If you really like the Catalog Brochure, you could always copy some or all of its elements over to a blank WP template.
Hope this helps.

Can you mix DV and HDV in the same sequence?

Hi Everyone....
I am new to the forum, and new to FCP...yes! I joined the dark side and just got a MAC.
I am trying to learn this system, and the 500 manuals it came with are about as clear as mud.....
Can I mix 16x9 DV footage with 16x9 HDV footage? And please don't tell me I am hosed!
I have some footage right now in a sequence, but it has the red line above the sequence, indicating that it needs to render.
And actually I can't even get the high def footage alone in a sequence to work...but that is another post.
Thanks in advance...

I think what your asking is this....the captured clip is:
frame size: 1440x10180
compressor: hdv 1080i60
data rate 3.2 mb
pixel aspect: hd 1440/1080
I changed the sequence settings to match this and it came out all kinds of funky.
Is there another way to find out what kind of high def the clip is? I have the Sony FX1 if that matters....

How can I mix up the photos in a file?

I am doing a slide show for my child's teacher. I am using about 400 photos from 6 different events. How can I mix up the photos so the slide show is in a random order rather than chronological?

So, you're exporting photos from Lightroom, then rolling them into a slideshow using a different program, and that program does not support randomization - did I get that right?
If so, then indeed: it's as Paige said: no way to export in random order without a plugin or script or something.
Here's one possibility: put them in a collection, then shuffle the collection using the "Shuffle Photos In Collection" script available here:
http://www.robcole.com/Rob/ProductsAndServices/MiscLrPlugins/#MiscScripts
(they're free scripts I wrote - kinda like plugins, but simpler..).
Then export all photos in the collection with a sequence number prefix so they're in proper order (alphabetically) on disk - then your slideshow program will have them in random order - makes sense? (try it before answering ).

Lots of Inactive perl sessions in Oracle 10g r2 on Debian Linux 64 bit

Hi,
There are lots of Inactive perl session in Oracle 10g release 2 10.2.0.3.0 on Debian Linux 64 bit, is it normal
ps aux|grep oracle is showing following in processes of perl

Instant client ODBC package

I'm trying to use the instant client odbc driver but seem to have a problem when calling SQLConnect. Here is my call to the function:
SQLConnect(connHandle, database, SQL_NTS, username, SQL_NTS, password, SQL_NTS)
The username and password are passed correctly but for some reason the database (SID) is not. When I specify the SID in TWO_TASK it works fine. Here is the connect string from cli.trc when not specifying the SID in TWO_TAKS:
(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)(PROGRAM=/home/oracle/instantclient/bin/oracle)(ARGV0=oracletest3)(ARGS='(DESCRIPTION=(LOCAL=YES)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=beq)))')(DETACH=NO))(CONNECT_DATA=(CID=(PROGRAM=db2xml)(HOST=XXXXXXX)(USER=root))))
Any idea why I wouldn't be able to specify the SID in the SQLConnect function but I'm able to with TWO_TASK?
Thanks.

Are you only having this problem when using Instant Client, rather than the full client?
