Jdriver and Oracle 8.1.7

Is Oracle 8.1.7 certified with either WLS 5.1 or 6.0? If not, is it going through a certification process at this time?

Hi Mitesh,
We're using the jDriver for Oracle with 8.1.7 client (thin client I
believe), following the instructions on setting up the jDriver for Oracle.
Thank you,
Makoto

Which driver are you using? oracle thin driver , oci driver or weblogicoci
driver?
If you are using oracle thin driver, we have by default 920 thin driver.Please
use 817 thin driver and see if that makes any difference.

Hello everyone,
I'm using the jDriver for Oracle on WebLogic 7.0 SP2 with Oracle 8.1.7.
Most
of the time it works fine. But recently we encountered a problem wherethe
driver kept responding with this error when accessing the database:
ORA-03113 end-of-file on communication channel
With 6.1 SP2 we have see this once in a while, but never persistent.There
is no noticeable connection drop or issues between the database serverand
WLS. Have anyone encountered this with WLS 7? Is there anything we cando on
the app/app server side?
Thank you,

Global transaction problem with JDriver/Oracle and Oracle XA

We are haveing serious problems with Container Managed Transactions on Bea 6.1
and Oracle with EJB having set "Required" for all methods. We have tried in vain
to make it work with JDriver as well as OracleXAClient. Both fail at sometime
during the execution throwing "Not called in cotext of global transaction" (with
JDriver) OR "XAER_PROTO : Routine was invoked in an
inproper context start() failed on resource 'OracleXAPool'" (this one with oracle
XA).
1.) Weblogic JDriver-XA:
DatabaseMetaData metaData = dataSource.getJDBCConnection.getMetaData();
ResultSet resultSet = metaData.getTables(null, null, tableName.toUpperCase(),
new String[]{"TABLE"});
This fails immmediately saying that it was not called from global transaction.
Interesting thing is that with OracleXA, it doesnt say this exception at this
check point.
2) Oracle XA
Okie, we couldnot read through the CLOB using it so for reading CLOB, we used
direct jdbc connection and then did away with it. Now all next sql queries were
executed against oracle pool using XA data source with OracleXAClient. But at
some point we again ran into the problem "XAER_PROTO : Routine was invoked in
an
inproper context start() failed on resource 'OracleXAPool'"

everything always works with it.

AFAIR this issue was resoved by moving tx opreations out from non-tx
methods.

Jawad,
It would be nice if you can post the full stack trace error message. Didyou try moving to
the latest service pack (sp2) for WLS6.1.
Thanks,

Yes we had correctly set TXDataSource and let it to point to the right

pool each time and it worked well with oracle thin driver but not whenwe switched
the pool to JDriver or OracleXAClient. Note that we could aways confirmthat pool
was successfully created alongwith we could retrieve connection from itvia TXDatSource,
things gave problem after we attempted to do what i had mentioned in mylast posting.

Also with JBoss 2.4.4 things work pretty well. So couldnt be our codeproblem.

Setting isolation level with JDriver for Oracle/XA

edocs (http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs70/oracle/trxjdbcx.html#1080746) states that,
if using jDriver for Oracle/XA you can not set the transaction isolation level
for a transaction and that 'Transactions use the transaction isolation level set
on the connection or the default transaction isolation level for the database'.
Does this mean that you shouldn't try to set it programatically (fair enough)
or that you can't set it in the weblogic deployment descriptor either? Also anybody
got any idea what the default is likely to be if you are using an Oracle 9iR2
database? Is this determined by some database setting?

got any idea what the default is likely to be if you are using an Oracle 9iR2
database? Is this determined by some database setting?The system should honor the setting defined in the deployment descriptor,
however, for oracle it may not be helpful to change it. Oracle provides two
isolation levels. The default is always READ_COMMITTED. The other
setting is SERIALIZABLE, but this hurts performance, and is also problematic
in the way oracle implements it. For instance, even if you set SERIALIZABLE,
oracle will not lock read data. It will allow other transactions to read and/or
alter data trhat another ongoing SERIALIZABLE transaction has read. The
only way to really lock read data in oracle is to issue oracle-specific SQL in
your select: "SELECT ..... FOR UPDATE".
All in all, you should collect a strong case for why you can't proceed with
READ_COMMITTED first. Then you should research oracle's recommendations
(and their problem record) with SERIALIZABLE.

We do not offer a JDBC driver for Linux in version 5.1. In version 6.0,we
do offer a type 4 driver for Linux.
In version 5.1, I suggest trying the platform independent type 4 JDBC driver
available for free from Oracle. It is supported (as is any JDBC driver)
with WebLogic Server. To download it:
Go to http://www.oracle.com and select the "Download" option.
From the resulting page, use the "Select Utility or Driver" dropdown to
select Oracle JDBC drivers
From the resulting page, scroll down a little (since SQLJ stuff appears at
the top).
Or, to go directly there:

Configuring Weblogic's jDriver for Oracle to use in distributed transactions

          Here is some errata to the instructions at "Configuring XA JDBC drivers" section of the online beta documentation:
          http://www.weblogic.com/docs60/adminguide/managetx.html#1041268
          The sample JDBC connection pool using Weblogic jDriver for Oracle should be:
          <JDBCConnectionPool
          Name="fundsXferAppPool"
          Targets="myserver"
          URL="jdbc:weblogic:oracle:localdb"
          DriverName="weblogic.jdbc.oci.xa.XADataSource"
          InitialCapacity="0"
          MaxCapacity="5"
          CapacityIncrement="1"
          Properties="user=scott;password=tiger;server=localdb;rmid=0"
          />
          <JDBCTxDataSource
          Name="fundsXferDataSource"
          Targets="myserver,server1"
          JNDIName="myapp.fundsXfer"
          PoolName="fundsXferAppPool"
          />
          Here is an example of an additional XA connection pool for a second database instance:
          <JDBCConnectionPool
          Name="fundsXferAppPool2"
          Targets="myserver"
          URL="jdbc:weblogic:oracle:localdb2"
          DriverName="weblogic.jdbc.oci.xa.XADataSource"
          InitialCapacity="0"
          MaxCapacity="5"
          CapacityIncrement="1"
          Properties="user=scott;password=tiger;server=localdb2;rmid=1"
          />
          <JDBCTxDataSource
          Name="fundsXferDataSource2"
          Targets="myserver,server1"
          JNDIName="myapp.fundsXfer2"
          PoolName="fundsXferAppPool2"
          />
          Please note the different "rmid" values for the 2 different database instances. Note also that the above sample only applies for Beta 1. Instructions may change in the future for Beta 2.
          Also, all the names of the data source properties shown in "Table 8-2 Data Source Properties for WebLogic jDriver for Oracle" should start with lower case.
          The Beta 1 online documentation will soon be updated to reflect the above. Our apologies for any inconvenience caused.

XA jDriver for Oracle problem : Getting native code exception

Hi,
I'm getting a native code exception which causes the Weblogic server to crash when
using XA drivers for transaction with two oracle databases. My application uses RMI
and threads.
I'm using BEA's jDriver for Oracle running under Weblogic server 6.1 sp1 talking
to Oracle 8.1.6. The OS is Solaris 2.8.
In middle of the program execution it's giving this problem. I'm using jdk131 in
solaris platform.
Any idea what's going on here ?
Thanks,
Nagoor Haja

Hi,

I'm using BEA's jDriver for Oracle running under Weblogic server 6.1sp1

In middle of the program execution it's giving this problem. I'm

Any idea what's going on here ?

Cannot configure JDriver for Oracle

Following the instructions indicated in Setting JDriver for Oracle, I still get
the following errors :
1. Error dialog box : The procedure entry point OCILobLocatorAssign could not
be located in the dynamic link library OCI.dll.
Anyone can help to fix the problem.
Thanks.

We recently applied a client and server patches to our db and workstations to move to Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0. We are using the OCI driver thru the weblogic Jdriver for oracle. when we print the meta data after the client upgrade the version of the driver is still showing as old. If we put the oracle classes12.jar in the weblogic classpath the driver version is printed correctly from the meta data. Can some oone answer why this happens.
Here is the out put with out the oracle classes12.jar in the class path:
<b>============= Database Product Name is ... Oracle
Database Product Version is Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production With the Partitioning, OLAP and Oracle Data Mining options JServer Release 9.2.0.6.0 - Production
============= JDBC Driver Name is ........ Oracle JDBC driver
JDBC Driver Version is ..... 9.2.0.3.0
JDBC Driver Major Version is 9
JDBC Driver Minor Version is 2</b>
Driver version should show as 9.2.0.6.0 it is instead showing 9.2.0.3.0.
Thanks For your Help.We ship a version of the oracle driver, which you will find in the server\lib directory, and
unless you put a different version of the driver ahead of weblogic.jar, that's the version of
the driver WLS will use. You can definitely install a later version of the oracle driver in that
directory.

JDK1.3 for "jDriver for Oracle"

Hi,
I'm developing for RMI/IIOP by using WLS5.1,JDK1.3 and Oracle8.
Is it possible to use JDK1.3 for "jDriver for Oracle"? And also, when it
will be added to Support Platform??

I dunno about Oracle 8... ask Oracle... 1.3 is supported now.

Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

Hi,
I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
ex:
With oracle7
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP 'CHAMP
champ1 champ2
With Oracle 9
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
champ1 champ2
So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
Thanx.

Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
Anyway,
You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
set lin 310Regards.

Oracle Single Sign on and Oracle Internet Directory

Hello Gurus,
What is the relationship between Oracle Single Sign on and Oracle Internet Directory.
To my understanding, OID is required to install SSO.
If OID already exist, can we just install SSO and go on integrating it to existing OID.
Great Thanks,

Hi Tim,
I've been working on this and could reproduce the issue with anonymous binds. A fix will be ready in 4.2.1.
So what I really need is the password used for login to pass to the is_member call.The P101_PASSWORD item does not save state. However, you can access the value during submit processing of the login page, for example in the post authentication function of your authentication scheme. People sometimes put code in there to query the user's groups (e.g. with apex_ldap.member_of2) and save them in an application. This item value can then be used in the authorization schemes.

Christian

Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms?
I have generated a form, which is based on a view. The view uses the mdsys.sdo_relate operator. Somehow I am unable to get the form to perform (to get one record it takes over 20 minutes). While useing sql-navigator to process the same statement it seems no problem. The query that also uses the view, is then processed in 10 seconds.
I also noticed that when text-functions like ' lower' of ' upper' are used to query the view, the query is processed within 15 seconds. If I don't use ' lower' or ' upper' it takes a long time (> 20 minutes) to process the query. Is it possible that this causes the bad performance of the form?
On metalink I have found that forms and spatial do not cooperate because of the pl/sql version that
forms6 uses. There is no solution presented, does anyone know of a work around?
My configuration is:
Oracle 8.1.7 on WIN2K @ PIII-800Mhz 256 Mb memory.
Formsbuilder 6
If requested I can post the queries that I have made.
With regards,

Hello Priya,
Look into the following.
1. Book - Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g by r. Kothuri, A. Godfrind, E. Beinat. This book provides a nice introduction on Oracle Spatial concepts and have examples.
2. Look at the Oracle Spatial & Graph User Guide
2. Book - Applying and Extending Oracle Spatial by S. Greener and S. Ravada. This book provides hands on information for advanced oracle spatial application developers. Practical guide on hands-on examples, Data models and develop cross-vendor database solutions.
3. This oracle spatial forum, once you understand these concepts.
In the future consider Certification on Oracle Spatial 11g Certified Implementation Specialist.

Limitation on SQL executing select statement from ADO and Oracle 8.1.7.1 OleDB Driver

Hi,
we are running a query with a big dunamic select statement from VB code using ADO command object. When Execute method is called system hangs and control won't return back to the application. it seems to be that there is some type limitation on Query string length. Please tell us if there is any?
we are running Oracle 8.1.7 Server on Windows 200 Server and connecting from a W2K professional, ADO 2.6 and Oracle OLEDB 8.1.7.1 OLEDB Driver.
Sample code:
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
Set cmd = New Command
With cmd
.CommandText = ' some text with more than 2500 characters
.CommandType = adCmdText
Set rs = .Execute
End With
when i debug using VB6 and when .Execute line is called system hangs or return a message method <<somemethod> of <<some class name>> failed error.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Anil

A stored procedure would only slow you down here if it was poorly written. I suspect you want to use the translate function. I'm cutting & pasting examples from the documentation-- a search at tahiti.oracle.com will give you all the info you'll need.
Examples
The following statement translates a license number. All letters 'ABC...Z' are translated to 'X' and all digits '012 . . . 9' are translated to '9':
SELECT TRANSLATE('2KRW229',
'0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ',
'9999999999XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX') "License"

Also, LIKE '%<string>%' is going to be rather expensive simply because it has to compare the entire string and because it forces full table scans, rather than using indexes. You could speed this sort of query up by using interMedia Text (Oracle Text now in 9i). If you can eliminate one of the '%' options, you could also improve things.
My guess is that your stored procedure is inefficient and that's causing the problem-- 5k rows per table should be pretty trivial.
If you post your query over on the PL/SQL forum, there are better performance tuners than I that might have more hints for you. To get really good advice, though, you'lllikely have to get at least the execution plan for this statement and may need to do some profiling to identify the problem areas.

New to XML and Oracle

Just trying to clarify some issues as I try and learn about XML, and specifically how it integrates into the DB.
1 - Is there a way with Oracle tools for me to get an XSD of an existing 9i relational schema? We are not currently using the XML DB, but our middleware developers would like to have an up to date XSD to use for their internal mapping.
2 - Is there any way that I can keep that XSD up-to-date automatically, so I get a new one whenever the schema gets updated?
3 - If I wanted to investigate storing XML docs within the DB in native XML format, I need to have an XML DB, correct? Is this DB construct maintained seperatelly from my "normal" relational schema? or are they kept in sync by Oracle?
I know these may all be real basic questions, but as I said, I'm new to XML and Oracle. I am reading as much as I can, but there are a lot of docs out there.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi
1. On my opinion such a tool doesn't exists. Some parts can be implemented elsewhere, but not as described by you... e.g. with XSU if you specify the parameter "withschema" the XSD of the executed statement is generated. Another example is to use DBMS_METADATA to dump the data dictionary in XML (but not XSD, of course you could write your own XSLT to do this transformation...).
2. -
3. If you use XSD-based tables the XSD and the relational model are stored separately in the data dictionary. Therefore if you change the XSD you have to drop/create the XSD-based table... no schema evolution yet.
