Is the Oracle 9i Client (Win2003 32bit) supported in a virtual environment?

We have the Oracle 9i client installed on our VM (Win2003 32bit). Our databases are on Oracle 8i (hence why we are using the 9i Client).
SQLDeveloper on this VM communicates fine with the databases
We have SQLServer2005 also on this VM which runs ETL packages, extracting from Oracle and loading onto SQLserver.
The ETLs run fine when run as standalone jobs in VisualStudio. But when run in SQLServer2005 as a job, they don't appear to run to completion - we are concerned that this may be a memory issue relating to running the Oracle Client on a VM.

Windows 2003 is supported by VM (VMware if you mean); hence anything that works on Windows 2003 should work even if Windows 2003 is running as a VM.
But when run in SQLServer2005 as a job, they don't appear to run to completion I am not able to relate this to Oracle. Could you elaborate a bit more? If it is an Oracle job which fails, what is the error?

The Oracle JRockit JVM is not supported by SAP JCo 3.0.5.

Hello all,
I am preparing our new Oracle Fusion Middleware platforms. So far we have been running BPEL 10.1.3.4.0 and we are going to build the 11g platform (WLS and SOA suite) in parallel.
I have already installed WLS Server 10.3.3 and then SOA Suite + the SOA patchset bu selecting always Jrockit_160_17_R28.0.0-679.
Now I am abaout to install the adapters and I red in the documentation
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/doc.1111/e17054/intro.htm
For supported JVM information that corresponds to each operating system, see the SAP Note #1077727 in the SAP Service Marketplace.
Note:
The Oracle JRockit JVM is not supported by SAP JCo 3.0.5.
Is anybody aware of this? If it is valid, how could I achieve not to re-installa everything from scratch and select SUN JVM?
Could I for example create a new Managed Server where I will explicity select SUN JVM to be installed for this instance?

Trying to open a sharepoint library in Windows Explorer via IE 8 results in the error "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer"

I am attempting to connect to a Microsoft Sharepoint library, via the "Actions -> Open in Windows Explorer" option from the Sharepoint page. When I do so, I get the error message "your client does not support opening this list with windows explorer". In short, I am trying to get the "drag and drop" functionality of a Sharepoint library.
I am running Windows 7 64-bit and IE8. The target Sharepoint environment is a MOSS 2007 EE. My Windows "WebClient" service is running, and I have no problem connecting to this exact library via a Windows XP computer running IE8.

Verify that the Webclient is started automatically from the Services.msc
Verify that your Portal is in the Intranet local security zone (You can reach it from Your Internet Explorer Browser Security Tag) if not add it to the list
restart the WebClient service if it's work good
If not you have to create a network share to your portal URL directly not your documents library.
Open Windows Explorer or My Computer from the Windows Start Menu.
From the Tools menu, click Map Network Drive…. A new Map Network Drive window opens.
In the Map Network Drive window, choose an available drive letter from the dropdown list located next to the "Drive:" option. Any drives already mapped will have a shared folder name displayed inside the dropdown list, next to the drive letter.
Type the name of the folder to map wich is in this case your SharePoint Portal URL (Don't include the documents libraries)
Click the "Reconnect at login" checkbox if this network drive should be mapped permanently. Otherwise, this drive will un-map when the user logs out of this computer.
If the remote computer that contains the shared folder requires a different username and password to log in, click the "different user name" hyperlink to enter this information.
Click Finish.
I am looking for a suite method :)

I am getting the [ins-32025] on a clean install of the Oracle 11gR2 client

Hello,
I am attempting to install the Oracle 11gR2 Instant Client using the UI on 32-bit XP. There are ten of these machines, and each is a fresh install of XP. This is the error:
*SEVERE: [FATAL] [INS-32025] The chosen installation conflicts with software already installed in the given Oracle home.*
CAUSE: The chosen installation conflicted with software already installed in the given Oracle home.
ACTION: Install into a different Oracle home.
INFO: Advice is ABORT
Oracle has never been installed on these computers. So, there shouldn't be any conflict. I'm attempting to do an unattended installation using a DOS script. I'm using the .rsp file I created while installing on one of the machines using the GUI. BTW, I don't get this error when using the GUI, only while trying to do an unattended installation.
This is the part of the script that calls the UI:
setup.exe -silent -nowait -responseFile c:\client.rsp
I'm firing off this script via Remote Desktop, does that make a difference? I don't have physical access to these hosts.
Remember, these are fresh installations of XP, there isn't anything installed to create the conflict.
My OracleHome is C:\app\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
--Robert

Hmmm...
Thanks. I'm not getting this error when I use the GUI for the OUI. So, I'm not being "asked" anything. This error is only happening when I'm using the unattended installation option. Also, this is Windows, not Linux/Unix, so the path is more like "C:\app\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1". But, I checked my client.rsp file, anyway and there are no trailing back-slashes ("\").
At any rate, I'm letting the OUI build my client.rsp file for me, so there shouldn't be any errors in it -- especially any typos or formatting errors, at least.
Thanks. Do you have any other suggestions I could try?

Oracle product not supported on Vmware virtual environment

Members,
Oracle certification says Oracle products running on Vmware virtual environment are not supported.
One of my development Identity manager setup is running on Vmware virtual environment.
As of now application is running fine and I am getting support from Oracle on product issues.
Can anyone suggest what could be the impact of this in future and what types of issues I can expect in future.
Thanks,
S M

Could you verify this behaviour outside a VMware virtual machine?
If yes, then please open an SR on Metalink to let support diagnose.
Provide an RDA, AWR snapshot if you have licensed the Diagnistic Pack - if not than provide STATSPACK snapshots.
Sorry - but this is a database upgrade forum :-)

JVM Crash With Oracle OCI Client

Hi
My app is running on Windows 7 64 bit, Jboss 4.2, launched from Eclipse, and runs fine when I use the Oracle thin client (10g, 32bit). However when I try to use the OCI client, I get this:
# A fatal error has been detected by the Java Runtime Environment:
# EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION (0xc0000005) at pc=0x6d906f21, pid=4740, tid=5656
# JRE version: 6.0_21-b07
# Java VM: Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (17.0-b17 interpreted mode windows-x86 )
# Problematic frame:
# V [jvm.dll+0x106f21]
I'll post the contents of the log in another message because it's too long to fit here. Using the thin client is NOT an option unfortunately as the thin driver is missing some functionality that we need to use.
I've installed the Oracle client in a folder that doesn't contain spaces, or parentheses (c:\oracle\.....) and the JDK is installed in a similar directory (c:\java\...)
I've tried both 32bit and 64 bit versions of JDK1.6 and the Oracle 10g client. I have also tried mixed mode and interpreted mode JVM (Xint) with the same results.
ojdbc14.jar is in my JBoss server's lib directory, and ocijdbc10.dll is in my path (c:\windows\system32).
Anyone any ideas what's going wrong? Been trying to fix this for days now. Appreciate any help.
Richard

Sorted it (well, my colleague did anyway). We installed a fresh version (32 bit) JDK (6u21), the Oracle 10g (10.0.3) client (32 bit) and made sure that there were no other OCI DLLs anywhere. I had some in the JBoss bin directory which I had copied in earlier that morning and forgotten about. So, the only OCI DLLs I have now are in Oracle's installation directory. Once we removed those erroneous DLLs from the JBoss directory, the server made the connection successfully. I don't full understand why, because I was getting the error earlier without the erroneous DLLs being present too, so I think there was some additional interaction going on somewhere. One other thing that may have been important is the tnsnames.ora file I had. We found a post that said the tnsnames file generated by the installer, when it only has one entry in it, can include dodgy whitespace at the end which can cause problems. So, just to be on the safe side we added a second entry (to another DB) - maybe that was something to do with it.
So, the Oracle 10g client and OCI driver DOES work on Windows 7 64 bit (at least for me anyway)

How to specifiy the provider to be Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client when creating a dynamic connection string with EF Code First from Database?

I am trying to use the relatively new Code First from Database with the newest EF (6.x) and on an Oracle database (11g, but I have installed the newest ODTwithODAC). First of all, it works fine as long as the connection string is inside the App.Config file. But when I try to build it dynamically in the C# code (or rather, statically at the moment) it fails. I have it working with a dynamically built connection string when doing Model from Database though, so I'm at a loss right now.
First, I have created a second constructor for the context class that takes a string and does base(connectionString). Then I build the connection string via
OracleConnectionStringBuilder oracleBuilder = new OracleConnectionStringBuilder();
oracleBuilder.DataSource = "TEST.BLA.COM";
oracleBuilder.UserID = "ABC";
oracleBuilder.Password = "abc";
oracleBuilder.PersistSecurityInfo = true;
string connection = oracleBuilder.ToStrin();
Now trying to open an EntityConnection by giving to it this provider-specific connection string (or even the static one from the App.Config) doesn't work; I get "keyword not supported: user id"). Trying it by creating a context and giving this connection string doesn't work either. I'm pretty sure that this is because I didn't specify the provider to use; after all, it should use the Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client provider and not an SQL Server based one.
I then tried to get around this by using an EntityConnectionStringBuilder on top and specifying the provider keyword there, but then I get "keyword not supported: provider" when using it in the context constructor, and "the 'metadata' keyword is always required" when using it with the EntityConnection constructor.
As I said above: I bet it's the provider that I have to specify somehow, but I don't know how. The code that does work is the following:
using (var context = new Model())
context.Database.Connection.Open();
context.Database.Connection.Close();
When I read context.Database.Connection.ConnectionString, it is exactly the provider-specific connection string I created above, but I don't know where to specify the provider again. Do you know of any way to do this? Certainly there must be one.
PS: I have also posted this question on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27979454/ef-code-first-from-database-with-managed-oracle-data-access-dynamic-connection because it is quite urgent and I'd like to use Code First from Database. Otherwise I'd have to go "back" to using Model from Database again, which is not ideal because we have updatable views where the .edmx-file has to be edited after every reload of the model, while with Code First from DB inserting into the view automatically works.

A few of questions concerning the Oracle Client

Hi
Firstly, I'd just like to say that what I know about Oracle could be written on a very small postage stamp that had somehow been torn in half and then in half again.
Apologies for the waffle...
One of my roles within our organisation, is to create and deploy application using Novell ZENWorks to our users who will shortly be moving to a purely Windows XP SP2 environment.
Q1-Is the Oracle 8 client fully supported by XP SP2?
Our organisation runs multiple Oracle DB's and up until now, separate application objects have been created for each DB with that DB's settings in it's TNSNAMES.ORA file which is pushed out along with that application object. The trouble is that some users need to access more than one DB which means that they sometimes have multiple copies of the Oracle Client installed, using different TNSNAMES.ORA files depending on what DB they want to connect to.
Q2-Can I either carry out one install of say the Oracle 9 client and have one TNSNAMES.ORA file with all the DB settings in? Or even better still, can I install the client on one of the shared volumes on the server (I realise that I'd have to copy certain files to the workstation) and then get all the workstations to run the client from there?
Q3-Our preferred method of deploying applications is to use MSI's, but for some reason Oracle only supply some kind of primative and cumbersome response file system which I've found often gives random results depending on what the weather is like. Is there a better way of getting the client onto the workstations without having to mess around editing RSP's?
Sorry for posing such potentially dumb questions
James

Q1-Is the Oracle 8 client fully supported by XP SP2?AFAIK Oracle 8 products are no longer supported. Use 9i client instead.
Anyway here is link to certification matrix: http://www.oracle.com/technology/support/metalink/index.html
Or even better still, can I install the client on one of the shared volumes on the server...I guess this won't working. Install Client on each machine and share only tnsnames.ora, or you could resolving tnsnames from OID (LDAP) server.
Is there a better way of getting the client onto the workstations without having to mess around editing RSP's?You could make manual install and record the response file. That responsfile you could use on other machines. You don't need edit anything. Sorry, I can't see anything primitive and cumbersome on RSP. You can choose manual installation or using responsfile, there is not other option.

Can't find how and where to downaload the Oracle Client 8i and Developer 6i

All,
I am looking for downloads at OTN for the following.
1. Oracle Client 8i
2. Oracle Forms and Reports 6i
I had them installed on my m/c but lately I have been getting SQL*Net connection failures. I have been suggested to install the whole developer tools again.
Any help in this regard is appreciated.

Here is the link - I just verify prior to posting it here.

For the Oracle 8i client, download the 8i database server and do a custom installation - client installation is one of the options.
hope this proves useful

Anyone installed the Oracle client software on MBP?

Hi there,
I'm running into problems installing the Oracle 10g client software (not the server) on my macbook Pro (Intel)
The instant client installs fine, but it doesn't have the tools I need (sqlldr, imp, exp). During the install the installer gives me a java UnsatifiedLinkError.
Any thoughts? Sorry if I've missed a previous thread on this, but searches turned up nothing.

So do u mean if we have SQLPLUS on the box, it implies that client tools are installed ?
and the SQLPLUS.exe is the one that indicates the existance of client tools on a box and this has to be present on the box to say that the clinet tools are installed.
Can we have client tools on the box with out SQLPLUS.?

Running two different versions of the oracle client on my laptop

Hi, i have one application (iAvenue 6.1.3) which absolutely has to have the oracle 8 client installed. I have a second application (Isabel) which absolutely needs the oracle 9 client installed. Can i have the oracle 8 and 9 clients installed on my laptop simultaneously, which would allow both of these applications to work without any conflict? If so, how? Is there a file on my laptop that i can update to make sure this work?

There are no problems, you can run 8.0 and 8i, but be aware of the differences:
8.0 required an specific platform installer, it had its own set of regedit entries. 8i used the OUI. Beware of the %PATH% environment. And take care of connectivity issues. You should use two different listeners, if trying to use the same listener, use the 8i and check the compatibility with tns entries 8.0 and older.
When the transition between 8.0 and 8i took place, a lot of applications suffered mainly because of strange connectivity issues.

To Find the version of Oracle Instant Client in SAP

Hi,
I am a newbie in SAP with oracle. I have planned to upgrade the Oracle Instant Client Version in our systems.
The following is our system specificatiosn:
SAP : ECC6.0
Database : Oracle 10204
OS : HP-UX 11.23 ia64
I have the following observations with respect to finding the version of the Oracle Instant client in SAP.
a) As per the SAP note : 819829, the version of the Oracle client can be found using the command "genezi-v" under the path
genezi -v
Client Shared Library 64-bit - 10.2.0.4.0
System name:    HP-UX
Release:        B.11.23
Version:        U
Machine:        ia64
b) From the SAPGUI, I have found the version of the DB Client library as OCI_102 (10.2.0.1.0).
Following are my queries:
1) Which of the above methods can be considered to find the correct version of Oracle Instant client in SAP?
2) If the method b gives the correrct version --> Where does this value is picked up from OS level?
with regards,
Arul

Hello Arul,
just look at a work process trace file .. you will find a section like this while starting SAP or restarting the work process.
Loading DB library '/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run/dboraslib.o' ...
Library '/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run/dboraslib.o' loaded
Version of '/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run/dboraslib.o' is "700.08", patchlevel (0.110)
Got LIBPATH=/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run:/usr/lib:/lib:/usr/sap/<SID>/SYS/exe/run:/opt/kerberos/lib:/oracle/client/10x_64/i
Oracle Client Version: '10.2.0.4.0', (dbsl 701 140910)
There you can find the actual used client version ... also SAP delivers a file called SAPIC_README in the oracle client directory, which gives you information about the client version and its applied patches.
Regards
Stefan
