Is oracle database 10.2.0.4 be used in oracle applications 12.1.3

We are palnning to upgrade from our current applications version 12.0.4 to 12.1.3
We understand it will done in 2 phases ie 12.0.4 - 12.1.1 and 12.1.1 to 12.1.3
but our current database version is 10.2.0.4
My question here is can we upgrade applications to 12.1.3 without upgrading database?Yes as R12 is certified with 10.2.0.3/10.2.0.4/10.2.0.5

or shall we upgarde atleast to 10.2.0.5 first and then proceed with applications upgrade and then plan for database upgrade to 11g release 2 later.
Please suggest me with proper approach.To upgrade my current env with oracle application 12.0.4 with database 10.2.0.4It is always recommended you have the latest database version installed -- 11.2.0.3

Oracle Database Migration Verifier - Can it be used for diff table structur

Hello,
We have re-engineered the existing sybase tables to a new structure in Oracle for few of the tables.For example a table in sybase is normalized to two tables in oracle.In these cases can the "Oracle Database Migration Verifier" be mapped such that the columns in one table in sybase be mapped to two table is Oracle with their respective column names.
In a gist can the tool be used even if the structure is not the same in the source and targer databases.
Please let me know if you need more clarifications regarding my query.
Regards,
Ramanathan.K

not really. The DMV was a simple tool for verifiying that what you now had in Oracle was what you had in Sybase. It does not do what you are expecting.

Moving oracle database to a new server with an upgraded oracle software

Hi Guys,
Here is the scenario, we have an existing Oracle 9.2 demo database on a Solaris 5.9 server. I was asked to transfer this to another server with same OS but with an Oracle 10g software installed. The original plan was to mount the exisiting Oracle home from the original server to the new server and from there copy all the database files and bring up the database.
Here are the steps:
- Issue an "alter database backup controlfile to trace", get the script from the trace file
- Copy all database files to the new server
- Edit parameter files
- Do a startup mount recreate the control files, do a recover database, and startup the database on the new server.
I suggested that we to a transport tablespace but due to limited resources and that the 9.2 database does not have this feature we can't perform this process. I also can't do a exp/imp of the database since we really have limited resources on a disk. I was wondering if the steps I enumerated above are correct? Or would result in an error?

Hi,
why you want to recreate the controlfile, does the mount point locations are changing from old server to new server?
if you recreating controlfile new incarnation starts, keep in mind.
you have the downtime to upgrade.. :)
shutdown
take cold backup and move to new server.
create the directory structure as exist in PFILE including CRD files.
install software
startup upgrade
upgrade database(need to add sysaux TBS)
shut immediate
startup

change hostname in listner.ora/tnsnames.ora files.

Using Oracle ODBC Gateway connecting to a remote Oracle database

Oracle 11gR2
RHEL 6.4
Has anyone use the Oracle ODBC Gateway to connect to another Oracle database? Any issues with that configuration? Where do I get the ODBC drivers for Linux?
(I know, "why not use a dblink?" -- well that would be against company security policies)

Hi,
From the Oracle point of view we support using DG4ODBC for Oracle to Oracle connections. However, we have not actually tested it as DG4ODBC is primarily designed for access to non-Oracle databases.
How DG4ODBC will work between Oracle databases depends on the ODBC driver and what that supports. You will need an ODBC Oracle driver which you can get from various suppliers including Oracle but also vendors such as DataDirect, Easysoft etc. You could try a Google search.
You say you do not want to use database links but that is how DG4ODBC is used, You cannot do -
sqlplus user/password@dg4odbc_oracle
Once Dg4ODBC is setup and configured as in this note - if you are using Linux 64-bit -
How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install (Doc ID 561033.1)
then in the Oracle database you create a database link and select from tables in the other Oracle database -
select * from table@dg4odbc_db_link ;

How to insert a image file into oracle database

hi all
can anyone guide me how to insert a image file into oracle database now
i have created table using
create table imagestore(image blob);
but when inserting i totally lost don't know what to do how to write query to insert image file

Hi I don't have time to explain really, I did have to do this a while ago though so I will post a code snippet. This is using the commons file upload framework.
Firstly you need a multi part form data (if you are using a web page). If you are not using a web page ignore this bit.
out.println("<form name=\"imgFrm\" method=\"post\" enctype=\"multipart/form-data\" action=\"FileUploadServlet?thisPageAction=reloaded\" onSubmit=\"return submitForm();\"><input type=\"FILE\" name=\"imgSource\" size='60' class='smalltext' onKeyPress='return stopUserInput();' onKeyUp='stopUserInput();' onKeyDown='stopUserInput();' onMouseDown='noMouseDown(event);'>");
out.println("   <input type='submit' name='submit' value='Submit' class='smalltext'>");
out.println("</form>"); Import this once you have the jar file:
import org.apache.commons.fileupload.*;Now a method I wrote to upload the file. I am not saying that this is correct, or its the best way to do this. I am just saying it works for me.
private boolean uploadFile(HttpServletRequest request, HttpSession session) throws Exception {
        boolean result = true;
        String fileName = null;
        byte fileData[] = null;
        String fileUploadError = null;
        String imageType = "";
        String error = "";
        DiskFileUpload fb = new DiskFileUpload();
        List fileItems = fb.parseRequest(request);
        Iterator it = fileItems.iterator();
        while(it.hasNext()){
            FileItem fileItem = (FileItem)it.next();
            if (!fileItem.isFormField()) {
                fileName = fileItem.getName();
                fileData = fileItem.get();
                // Get the imageType from the filename extension
                if (fileName != null) {
                    int dotPos = fileName.indexOf('.');
                    if (dotPos >= 0 && dotPos != fileName.length()-1) {
                        imageType = fileName.substring(dotPos+1).toLowerCase();
                        if (imageType.equals("jpg")) {
                            imageType = "jpeg";
        String filePath = request.getParameter("FILE_PATH");
        session.setAttribute("filePath", filePath);
        session.setAttribute("fileData", fileData);
        session.setAttribute("fileName", fileName);
        session.setAttribute("imageType", imageType);
        return result;
     } And now finally the method to actually write the file to the database:
private int writeImageFile(byte[] fileData, String fileName, String imageType, String mode, Integer signatureIDIn, HttpServletRequest request) throws Exception {
        //If the previous code found a file that can be uploaded then
        //save it into the database via a pstmt
        String sql = "";
        UtilDBquery udbq = getUser(request).connectToDatabase();
        Connection con = null;
        int signatureID = 0;
        PreparedStatement pstmt = null;
        try {
            udbq.setUsePreparedStatements(true);
            con = udbq.getPooledConnection();
            con.setAutoCommit(false);
            if((!mode.equals("U")) || (mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn == 0)) {
                sql = "SELECT SEQ_SIGNATURE_ID.nextval FROM DUAL";
                pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                ResultSet rs = pstmt.executeQuery();
                while(rs.next()) {
                   signatureID = rs.getInt(1);
                if (fileName != null && imageType != null) {
                    sql = "INSERT INTO T_SIGNATURE (SIGNATURE_ID, SIGNATURE) values (?,?)";
                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setInt(1, signatureID);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(2, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();
                    pstmt.close();
                    con.commit();
                    con = null;
            if(mode.equals("U") && signatureIDIn != 0) {
                signatureID = signatureIDIn.intValue();
                if (fileName != null && imageType != null) {
                    sql = "UPDATE T_SIGNATURE SET SIGNATURE = ? WHERE SIGNATURE_ID = ?";
                    InputStream is2 = new ByteArrayInputStream(fileData);
                    pstmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
                    pstmt.setBinaryStream(1, is2, (int)(fileData.length));
                    pstmt.setInt(2, signatureID);
                    pstmt.executeUpdate();
                    pstmt.close();
                    con.commit();
                    con = null;
        } catch (Exception e) {
            con = null;
            throw new Exception(e.toString());
        return signatureID;
   }

Different ways to download data into a Oracle database

Apart from the below are there any other ways to download data into an Oracle database ?
1. Import data using import/export features.
2. Oracle external tables.
3. Data Pump
4. SQL Loader.
5. PL/SQL => utl_file package.
6. Oracle SQL developer tool - it was a nice surprise this morning to know that this tool can be used to import data into Oracle database.
Thanks

Oracle Database Mobile Server 11 sync

Hi,
I have two simple tables in the back-end oracle database in order to create a meeting-room android application with and embebbed SQLite database on the client devices. I have written all the functionality to register, authenticate, create a new appointent, show it, and delete it and it works fine on my smartphone, but I did all these steps against the local sqlite db.
Now I would like to share the reserves info with all the clients by synchronization using Oracle Database Mobile Server 11.
Tables:
Employees(ID, username, password, firstname, lastname, phone, email)
Reserves(ID, subject, firstname, lastname, start_date, end_date, meeting_room, alarm)
I have configured all the publications required (app , item, users, grants...) with the Workbench tool, like i have read from the official documentation and i added the lines to invoke the sync functionality. My problem is that when i launch the first sync the sqlite database in created on the device but the few records on the back-end are not replicated in the sqlite db. ¿is this process automatic or have I to write some code to catch this info?
Another problem is that the records of the sqlite database is neither replicated to the back-end database. I have to say that th sync process ends succesfully but I can see nothing on the in-queue and out-queue queues in the mobile manager console. So, what´s about this incomind and outcoming data? Th only thing i can see is a set of dirty records, these records are records on the back-end db, but I dont know what means...
Could you help me please?
Thank you very much.

Hi
Data Subsetting is to restrict the data each Client sees based on values you specify i.e.
If you only wanted a Client to see data for a specific Dept you could specify the following in the Publication Item
Select * from emp where DEPTNO = :DEPTNO
You can define what DEPTNO should be for each Client in the Mobile Server
So in your case if you want ALL Client to see ALL records for a Publication Item then you should not specify any Data Subsetting i.e.
Select * from emp - This would retrieve all rows
There is no specific need to use Sequences in your Application unless you want to. Obviously you must make sure that any new records created on the Client will not conflict with a record created on a different Client otherwise conflicts will occur after the data is synchronized with the server
With regards to you actual issue can you confirm the following ( NO NOT CHANGE ANY VALUES )
1. Check the table mobileadmin.applications in the Repository DB and confirm there is a row there for your Application and that the 'Publication' column contains the correct Publication you created in MDW.
2. Check the Table C$ALL_CLIENT_ITEMS, this should contain one row for each Publication Item you created in MDW i.e.
Select PUBLICATION_ITEM, DIRTY, CRR From C$ALL_CLIENT_ITEMS Where CLIENTID = '<Your Client Name>';

Make oracle database case insensitive

Hi All,
I am using oracle 10g EE as my back end database and front end is in C# .NET. I want to make my oracle database to perform any comparison case insensitively. I searched on the net and found several ways to achieve that
1. using upper function in procedures - can't afford
2. function index - can't afford
3. setting the session parameters
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_COMP=ANSI;
ALTER SESSION SET NLS_SORT=BINARY_CI;
The 3rd looks promising and can save lot of time. I have several question
1. Is there any way I can set these parameters from .NET?
2. Is there any way I can set once and will make only my database case insensitive?
any link, reference is highly appreciated.
Thanks,

Thanks for your mail.
I want to apply these settings to my oracle database only. It should not affect other oracle database that exist with my db.
Thanks,It would make sense to issue "ALTER SESSION" statements during logon process from the .NET code instead of changing the entire database - which might affect other users. Judging by the way you have written this, I feel you are referring to a schema rather than database.
.NET surely has the capability to run "ALTER SESSION" statements.

How to connect to remote Oracle Database 10g Express Edition

Hi,
I am very new to Oracle. I have created a successful application using OCCI call (createConnection()) to connect to local (resided on the same PC) Oracle Database. Now I would like to move the application to resided on a different PC and try to connect to Oracle Database. Can anyone points me to the right direction in doing this?
Thanks in advance.

Can anyone points me to the right direction in doing this? Well at least for me, self study on OCCI documentation is pointing to the right direction ;-)
OCCI requires only four shared libraries (or dynamic link libraries, as they are called on some operating systems) to be loaded by the dynamic loader of the operating system.
Installing Instant Client resolve this.
Cheers!

Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?

Hi,
Can we create new tablespace in Oracle Database 10g Express Edition instead of using the default "users" tablespace provided?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Correct. The sum of all user tablespaces is not allowed to exceed 4 GIG.
You could try shrinking your tablespaces. Theres a script called maxshrink on http://asktom.oracle.com which is useful for this.
You could compress your tables.
If you are storing lobs, you could consider storing them as bfiles.
Or upgrade to Oracle Standard Edition 1. Its not that expensive.

Different schemas in the same Oracle database

Both my source and target tables are in the same physical Oracle database (different schemas).
I can use the LKM Oracle to Oracle (DBLINK) knowledge module to load data but this requires setting up a dblink between the two schemas. Given that I can set this up so that the target schema has select etc permissions on the source schema, I can't help feeling that there is a simpler (more efficient?) way of doing this.
One of the steps in the LKM is 'Create Synonym on Target' which does the following
create synonym <%=snpRef.getTable("L", "COLL_NAME", "W")%>
for <%=snpRef.getTable("R", "COLL_NAME", "W")%>
This creates an Oracle synonym that includes a dblink (e.g create synonym s1 for s2@dblink). I can't help feeling that if I could change this so that it doesn't include the '@dblink' part then I could solve the problem and just create a synonym in the target schema that points directly to the source (e.g create synonymn s1 for source.s2). This should then mean that all the rest of the load etc process could run just the same.
I'm sure that there must be a way of doing this, but I can't figure out how to do it using the substitution methods API.
Any ideas how I do this?
Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
for sure when you define a Data Server you have to specify user which have appropriate access to both source and target schemas.
Then you can create 2 schemas in one Data Server and ODI will use queries like
insert into target_schema.tab_name
select ... from source_schema.tab1 ...
Loading KM will not be used in that case at all therefore data flow will work MUCH faster.
