Probleme cinfiguration with Net8 for Oracle8i Client on Win2000.
I can configure a Client Win2000 oracle 8.1.7 to connect a DataBase
on Win2000 AdvencedServer. How can i configure a LISTENER for
Oracle8i Client Win2000 ? I can not do it with Net8Assit.

Hi,
the listener is running only on server side. A client doesn't have a listener.

Looking for a copy of Oracle 8.1.6 client for NT/2000

I have an issue of moving a crystal report server from one very old pc running Windows 2000 onto a newer server running the same version of Crystal Reports BUT we do not have the CD's for Oracle installed in the old server which is version 8.1.6.0.
I did install 8.1.7.0 and test it, then upgraded to 8.1.7.4. and test it and for some odd reason the version of Crystal Reports we have DOES NOT like 8.1.7 and higher. And we do not have any more Crystal Report Support, typical, right?.
So with this in mind, my only choice is to get 8.1.6, install it test it and if it does not work on the new server I have to start from scratch again. What a deal, I wish I never got to work with &*#$@@@ PC's again.

I think you would need to contact Oracle support to get the CD's if they're still available. 8.1.6 is desupported.
What kind of errors do you get whne trying to use Crystal with Oracle 8.1.7.4? Perhaps this is an ODBC issue?

Not able to access the Oracle I/PM web client.

I have started the Administration server and the Oracle I/PM Managed Server. Now I'm trying to access the Oracle I/PM web client at this URL: http://hostname:16000/imaging. But when I hit this URL, the following error comes up:
Error 404--Not Found
From RFC 2068 Hypertext Transfer Protocol -- HTTP/1.1:
10.4.5 404 Not Found
The server has not found anything matching the Request-URI. No indication is given of whether the condition is temporary or permanent.
If the server does not wish to make this information available to the client, the status code 403 (Forbidden) can be used instead. The 410 (Gone) status code SHOULD be used if the server knows, through some internally configurable mechanism, that an old resource is permanently unavailable and has no forwarding address.
I'm also posting a part of the logs from the IPM_server log file:

Hi Srinath,
I have checked that as well, it is showing the IPM_server in running mode.
Also it doesn't show any deployment failure in the command line. Here is what it shows:

I feel there is some issue as this log is suggesting:

Using Java Access bridge (Accessibility) with oracle forms 6.0 client

I'm trying to use JAB (java Access bridge ) to capture events in oracle forms 6.0 client .
I've a Jinitiator 1.1.8 and JRE version 1.4x
I've configured JAB as per the installation guide . However the events don't surface in Java Monkey .
Has anybody encountered similar issue ? what is the solution for the issue ??
Also on one of the forums I read Jinitiator 1.3x and above is automatically recognised by Java Access bridge .
For jinitiator version less than 1.3 manual configuration is required . however I haven;'t been able to find any on the oracle forms KB
Also here is the excerpt from the link http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/accessibility/faqs/index.html
Q: Are there special steps for using Java-based applications with assistive technology?
A: If the Oracle application is written in Java, such as JDeveloper or Oracle Forms (runtime), customers must first install the latest version of Sun's Java Access Bridge. The Java Access Bridge provides the integration with screen readers such as JAWS or SuperNova that support Java. You just download the Access Bridge and install it. Sun's AccessBridge 2.0x recognizes Oracle's JInitiator 1.3x and above so no manual configuration steps are necessary. The Access Bridge is available from: http://java.sun.com/products/accessbridge. At the time this document was written, Access Bridge 2.0.1 is the most current publicly available production release; Oracle recommends upgrading to this version. Sun's AccessBridge is bundled with Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) and can be found in the Java Runtime Engine (JRE). More information for configuring such products is in the respective product documentation, or on http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/accessibility/products/index.html.

For your information actually error is ORA-03134: connection to this server are no longer supported.
The error which i am getting is on SSMA a tool by microsoft to migrate oracle to sql 2008. So that tool is displaying this error when i am trying to connect to oracle by the help of SSMA.That tool may be displaying the error, but it is only passing what it was given by the underlying Oracle client. The MS product really has nothing to do with the underlying problem, and can do nothing to fix it.
I believe Schavalli is right, you may need to get a 9.2 client in there as an intermediary. I once had a system where the app was built in pro-C and the source was lost so could not be recompiled/relinked. We had to host the db on 10.2 to take advantage of certain security features. Ended up having to have an intermediate 9.2 database for the 8.1 client (and there's where we had to patch up to 8.1.7.4) to connect to, and all of the "tables" in the 9.2 were really just public synonyms to db_links pointing on to the 10.2 database.
please suggest sth?
Thanks for help

Error while table Import from Oracle (OBIEE server 64bit & Client 32bit)

Hi All,
Problem : ODBC/OCI Connectivity Issue between OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 (64-bit) server and OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 Client (32-bit) local machine.
We have an OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1(64-bit) setup on a 64-bit ‘Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise’ machine.
OBIEE dev team members have 32-bit local machines.
OBIEE “Admin team member” (who will work on RPD) has OBIEE 11g client (BP1) installed on their *32-bit local machine*(which is common client software for 32/64 bit.)
Now, two ODBC connections were created on this 32-bit local Client machine, with OBIEE 11g client installed on it.
One with “BI server driver” for connection to OBIEE server machine(64-bit) to open RPD and other with “Oracle database driver” to connect to the Oracle database on 64-bit machine, to import tables.
With this setup done, I am able to open the RPD in online mode and view the existing sampleapp related objects present in it.
But when I try to import metadata from OBIEE client admin tool using OCI or ODBC, it gives an error that “Connection fails! “
I have the required tns entry in my tnsnames.ora file and I am able to connect to this database from the local client machine, using sqlplus.
Kindly let me know if there are any restrictions in using this type of a setup combination of 32-bit and 64-bit machines for OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 setup.
If not then, what steps are to be followed to do the setup btw 64-bit OBIEE server and 32-bit OBIEE client to make table import working.

Hi Veeravalli.. Thanks for your response.
I have my tns file residing in both the location you mentioned on the server machine. (64-bit)
•     {Oracle_BI1}\network\admin directory
•     {oracle_common}\network\admin directory
And also in the below Oracle_home path of oracle_client in the local machine. (32-bit, Oracle 11g R2 database client)
•     {oracle_Home}\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin
Also, I have used the full expanded tnsnames as you mentioned. Still issue persists.
When I use , “DataDirect 6.0 ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol” driver, for creating the system DSN and try to import tables from OBIEE client admin tool on local client machine, the connection happens and table list comes up, but it’s an SAP product and hence it throws a msg to purchase the tool to go further with table import.
I am wondering if I any other configuration steps need to be carried out, with the ODBC/OCI set up between 64-bit OBIEE server and 32-bit OBIEE client.
Also, the source database that I am trying to connect to is yet again on a 64-bit machine(Oracle 11g R2).
Please suggest.

Oracle 8.0.5 & Oracle 8.1.6 Client

Hi all,
I write an application to call a stored procedure (Using Visual
C++, ORACLE ODBC Driver). But I met the problem below.
When it runs on a Oracle 8.0.5 Client, The SQL statement should
be
{call sp(?,?,?)}
When it runs on a Oracle 8.1.6 Client, The SQL statement should
be
call sp(?,?,?)
if the SQL statement is same as the statement of 8.0.5,a error
occured when exec "SQLPrepare()","ORA-24328: illegal attributes"
Now, A question, How can I write an application despite of the
version diffrences between Oracle clients?
Thanks in advance.

Yes.
Although we haven't shipped any library specific to 816, you can use the library that is
in
$WL_HOME/bin/oci815_8 directory.

How can i get jdbc2.0 compatible driver for my oracle 8.1.5 client/server

Hi ,
I am looking for a driver that is jdbc2.0 compatible.Apaprently the oci and thin drvers that are shipped with oracle8.1.5 do no support scrollable and updateable resultsets. Can i download the oracle8.1.6 jdbc2.0 compatible drivers and use them with my oracle8.1.5 client/server. if so how do i install it?
Please let me know ASAP!!
It is relly frustrating to find a compatibler driver for the older versions since oracle does'nt provide them
poornima

Yes. For OCI driver, you will also have to have Oracle 8.1.6 client installed as well. http://technet.oracle.com/tech/java/sqlj_jdbc/htdocs/jdbc_faq.htm#_1_

Oracle 10g release 2 client

Can someone please help answer these questions for me. I am trying to make a case for me to use the Oracle 10g client for a new .NET system, that is going against an Oracle 9i database server. I would like to take advantage of the new speed improvements, latest bug fixes, and the ref_cursor in/out support for batching operations. I am having to prove myself here, and I am having difficulty finding documentation to help me.
1. I see in the documentation that the Oracle 10g release 2 client now supports ref_cursor in/out as apposed to just OUT from previous releases. Does this mean that I can now pass record set from .NET application into a PL/SQL stored procedure? Was this a limitation of the client or the ODP.NET? Is there a sample I can see? What is puzzling me here is that the ODP.NET version is not release 10.2 also.
2. I know that the Oracle 10g clients are backwards compatible to Oracle 9i database connectivity. Is this documented somewhere that I can refer to?
3. I know that the Oracle 10g and Oracle 9i clients can both be installed on the same system without interfering with each other. Is this documented somewhere that I can refer to?
Any other issue I am forgetting about? Thanks.

ODP.NET 10.2 is now available to download on OTN.
Output REF Cursors can be passed back into another stored procedure as an input REF Cusor. This feature works with just 10gR2 DB servers.
Output REF Cursors can be read, but you can only pass back as an input REF Cursor only the portion of the REF Cusor that has not yet been read.
Chapter 2 of the ODP.NET indicates the version of the DB server is necessary. If you are using 10.2, the oldest DB server you can use is 8i.
The ODP.NET doc also indicates that ODP.NET is multiple Oracle Home compliant.
