Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle: Data type is not supported.

I got the error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle: Data type is not supported.
Shortly after upgrading from Oracle 8 to Oracle 9. I was advised to download more up to date oracle drivers, but I was wondering if there was a way to tell what version of the 'OLE DB Provider for Oracle' is already at. Is there a command I can use via SQL Plus or something?

I have found Microsoft ODBC for Oracle to be more stable than the Microsoft OLEDB for Oracle driver. I have also found both Microsoft ODBC and OLEDB drivers to be more stable than the drivers from Oracle.
You could always get the latest MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Components) from Microsoft's MSDN Download site and then get the ODAC (Oracle Data Access Components) from Oracle's OTN Download site. ODAC requires MDAC. And ODAC has the latest drivers.
I suppose it would help to have the latest patches for your Oracle client software too. Maybe Oracle MetaLink would have these?
It may even help to have the latest service pack for Visual Studio 6 (Visual C++ 6 and Visual Basic 6) too.

I've imported this appliance (and others) on Windows 7 32-bit on a Lenovo W500, on an iMac, and on a MacBook. The one error you should encounter during the "import appliance" step is a path error related to shared folder (the canned/hard-coded path in the ovf file points to a place that is not likely to exist on your computer, so just comment out the D:\TEMP\Host path, or make it for that matter).



You can alter system set memory_target=300M scope=both and set your VM memory to 2.5GB and everything will run fine (using the vmctl script to start up what's needed). The "1" option is all that is needed for the tutorial shown in the documentation. If you run the admin server, you will see things run a good bit slower. Part of the tutorial assumes you know about UCM and how to take the UCM content in the sample files and upload those into the repository. You can delete the file already loaded and then do a single file upload to "re-load" the various directories/folders for the menu/home/etc. Upload the png and other files into the same folder (menu.html, menuBanner.png, etc. all go into the same Menu folder). It's not worth the time to set the bulk upload because you have to go out into UCM and dig around the admin settings, stop/restart, and so on. You can also use the contentadmin user (welcome1) to do the file upload.

Is there an associated Linux GUI Desktop available with the VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite 12.2.4 64 bit or is it all command line?

I have downloaded the 16 pieces of Oracle VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite (12.2.4) for x86 64 bit V52470-01 Parts 1 & 2 thru V52477-01 Parts 1 & 2 and unzipped and created the .ova.
I then imported that into VBox 4.3.22.
I went thru and changed the passwords for root, oracle, and applmgr as requested and entered a static IP.
I have not configured the DB or Applications yet.
However, I want to know if there is a typical GUI Desktop that can be brought up.
Thank you.

I have not been able to find a GUI desktop - I believe it is disabled or not included in the media.

Microsoft Access plug-in for oracle migration workbench

I would like to migrate from Microsoft Access to oracle 10g,but Microsoft Access plug-in had not found on web site oracle.com.
Where can obtain the Microsoft Access plug-in?
Thanks!

Hi,
Oracle SQL Developer 1.2 incorporates the Migration Workbench, providing users with the ability to migrate database objects and data from MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Access to Oracle. Oracle SQL Developer release 1.2.1 can be downloaded from OTN - http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html.
I would recommend that you review the accompanying documentation - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10405_01/doc/nav/portal_booklist.htm - to ensure that you understand how to use the tool for the migration of your MS Access MDB file.

Can I use virtual Servers in private cloud for RAC

Hello to all
We are going to install an Oracle RAC on two servers
But our Hardware Administrator says to us “I Allocate two virtual servers in the our private cloud not two physical Servers (or real Servers)”
Do you think it’s practical and reasonable to using virtual Server for Oracle RAC in production environment ?
Which one is better physical server or virtual server for RAC?
Please write your reasons
Thanks

Using virtual machines is officially supported for RAC only in a few cases which can be found here:
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/virtualizationmatrix-172995.html
Make sure that you meet these requirements in your private cloud. Some cases like vmware are still somewhat supported despite beeing not on the list.
Beside this you should make sure that your 2 virtual machines run on different hardware servers in the cloud, otherwise you lose most parts of the rac advantage regarding high availability, when both virtual servers happen to run on the same hardware during a crash
Virtual servers are used in production environments, but you will have to take greater care for many aspects of rac compared to physical hardware, e.g.. something like "live migration" of vmware can kill a rac node due to timeout.
I would prefer hardware for rac anytime over virtual servers and spare me the hassle of dealing with all possible issues arising from the virtualization.
And check oracles licensing policy...
Running an enterprise edition rac on e.g. a large vmware cluster is insanely expensive, you pay every cpu core the rac COULD run on -> the entire cluster!
If you must use virtual hardware but don't want to and need an argument against it use the license issue.

Server 2012 Hyper-V locks up Virtual Server for no reason.

Server 2012 Hyper-V locks up virtual servers for no reason.
This is a production server. I began building this server in February. I installed the server in November. 2012 server R1 is full of bugs!
First who was the rocket scientist that decided that the TURN OFF function in Hyper-V means "Please turn off when the
F*#@$*% you feel like it"? Idiots!
I have a Supermicro server with perfect memory (for those who want to blame this on memory).
It is running 12 Virtual Servers. Every morning, at a random time, at least 1 of the servers lock up solid. Sometimes as many as 5 decide that for no reason they all want to lock up. The servers that lock up may be 1 or more: a database server, a terminal
server, an exchange server, a Windows 8.1 Ent VDI server, an IIS server, and or AD server. All 2012 R1.
They are running all current Microsoft and other vendor patches and hardware updates.
The only common denominator is the Hyper-V server.
I cannot shut them down using the Hyper-V manager. I cannot turn them off. I have a hundred users standing by while I nicely ask them to turn off. The VM will turn off after 20 minutes and a lot of gentle coaxing.
I cannot Kill the vmwp.exe process associated with the locked Virtual Machine.
No .DMP are created. No events in the event viewers. No reason at all. When they restart, there is no indication of a problem.
I ran two VMWP dumps and posted it here.
www.a1bcs.com/hyper-vlockup.zipx
Does anyone know why these are locking up?
Thanks in advance for any help.
Robert

I'm not positive of the cause but I was able to stop the problems.
It turned out that Network Load Balancing (NLB) between the two terminal servers and another between the two gateways was causing the lockups.
This is a normal configuration and it should work. Especially since Microsoft has seen fit to remove the DRAIN USERS function from RDP as well as the LOCK OUT till next reboot function. JUST FYI these functions are still available at a DOS prompt
by using the CHGLOGON command. But still the NLB also provides these functions.
Anyhow, once I removed the NLB I haven't had the lockups anymore.
That doesn't however change the fact that TURN OFF should mean TURN OFF not turn off please!
Thanks again,
Robert

Can't get Microsoft FrontPage to connect to Oracle 9.2i

After considerble discussion in the microsoft.public.frontpage.client newsgroup (subject: "Database | Results ... won't ... through Oracle ODBC"), we had to give up and conclude that there didn't seem to be a straightforward way to connect to Oracle 9.2i via the FrontPage database wizard.
I tried a system Oracle ODBC DSN via MS Access and it worked; but, ` can't get the same DSN to work from FrontPage. From FrontPage it generates a user/password error, though the same user/password works from MS Access.
I tried an OLEDB connection and still received the following:
Server error: Unable to connect to a database from the web server using the
connection string 'Provider=MSDAORA; PWD=myPwd; UID=Administrator; Data
Source=glOdb.mikecoughlin.net'.
The following error message comes from the database driver software; it may
appear in a different language depending on how the driver is configured.
ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle
Number: -2147217843 (0x80040e4d)
I'm certain that this user/password combination is valid e.g. it works in Enterprise Manager to view tables etc.
So, my question is:
Does anyone have a/the workaround to use FrontPage to connect to Oracle 9.2i ?
thanks,

Trying use ODBC driver of Oracle Client, available on this Web Site.

Error when installing virtual appliance for r12.2.4

Hello
I have downloaded Oracle Virtual Appliance for Oracle E-Business r12.2.4 in a following step by step manner but I am running into an error. As per the readme, I have gone through the Note:1928303.1 but it does not address the issue.
That said, is there any comprehensive, step by step document that outlines installation and implementation of Oracle Virtual Appliance for r12.2.4?
Below are steps I ran.
Step 1: Downloaded and Installed Oracle Virtual Box version 4.3.22.
Step 2: I want to install Oracle EBS r12.2.4 single node installation on My Windows 8.1 64 bit laptop with 1 TB of HDD and 8GB RAM.
Step 3: Downloaded following files for single node vision appliance.
There are two zip files for each part, so I downloaded total 16 zip files.
V52470-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 1 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52471-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 2 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52472-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 3 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52473-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 4 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52474-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 5 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52475-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 6 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52476-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 7 of 8) Linux x86-64
V52477-01 Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.2.4 Single Node Vision Install X86 (64 bit) (Part 8 of 8) Linux x86-64
Step 4: Unzipped these files
Step 5: After unzip, unzipped filename looked like following. So I removed the last digit in the extension so that Oracle virtual box can recognize .ova extension.
Unzipped file name:
Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova.01
renamed to
01_Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova
Step 6. In Oracle virtual box, attempted to import these ova files using "Import Appliance". This is when I am getting following error.
Oracle VM Virtual Appliances for Oracle E-Business Suite (Linux)
Failed to import appliance C:\ova\EBS\INSTALLATION OPTIONS\Option 1 Single Node ALL\0_Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL.ova.
Could not create the imported medium 'C:\Users\ova\VirtualBox VMs\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL-disk1.vmdk'.
VMDK: Compressed image is corrupted 'C:\Users\ova\Oracle-E-Business-Suite-12.2.4_VISION_INSTALL-disk1.vmdk' (VERR_ZIP_CORRUPTED).
Result Code: (0x80BB0004)
Component: Appliance
Interface: IAppliance {3059cf9e-25c7-4f0b-9fa5-3c42e441670b}
This is happening with each and every file in above list.
Please advise what am I missing? And if there is a comprehensive document somewhere that outlines details about implementation. The above mentioned metalink note is not enough.
Darsh

You need to merge all of the downloaded files first, before importing into Virtualbox. Google for my blog for detailed steps.

Difference between Data Providers for Oracle

Hello,
There are 3 .NET Data Providers for access an Oracle Database:
1) ODP.NET, who uses Oracle API to access an Oracle Database.
2) Microsoft .NET Data Provider for Oracle, who comes in the Assemblie System.Data.OracleClient
3) Microsoft .NET Data Provider for OLE DB.
My questions are:
1) There is another Data Provider to access an Oracle DB ?
2) Which is better, for example to handle LOB fields ?
3) Which is better in performance ?
4) ODP.NET uses some Oracle API to handle a DB, and the others ?
5) What is the requirement (Oracle Client, OS) of each of them ?
Best Regards
Alfredo DS

I would recommend using ODP.NET. Overall, I've seen better performance from it than other Oracle providers. It requires the 9.2 client and any OS that the 9.2 client supports.
With respect to LOBs, the first ODP.NET version was consistently faster retrieving LOBs than other Oracle providers. The latest version of ODP.NET (and the upcoming version) have made some substantial improvements in LOB performance on top of that.

Installing the SSIS Connectors v2.0 for Oracle by Attunity - SSIS 2012

Hi,
on a SQL Server 2012 I'd like to add the SSIS Connectors vers. 2.0 for Oracle.
To accomplish this task I've tried this white paper:
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ee470675(v=sql.100).aspx
but it is referred to SQL Server 2008.
In order to execute the exact sequence of operations about Oracle components installation, can I install before the Oracle 32 bit client and then the Oracle 64 bit client?
I'd like to read the reply posted from an experienced person about the SSIS Connector installation task.
Thanks

Hi Pscorca,
No, the order you install the 32-bit Oracle client and the 64-bit Oracle client doesn’t matter. Assuming that you just need to run the package in 32-bit SSIS runtime mode, you even don’t need to install the 64-bit
Oracle client.
Although the white paper is for Microsoft Connector v1.x for Oracle and SQL Server 2008 Integration Services, you can still walk through the white paper for your scenario.

Mike Yin

Moving EP to Virtual Servers

Hello Guys,
We are in the process of moving our servers to Virtual Servers with our Service Providers and our EP 5.0 server is also part of it. I wanted to know whether SAP supports Virtual Servers for EP and if yes what care should we be taking.
Any help on this would be highly appreciated. Also if you can point me to the right direction then it would be great.
Regards,
Piyush Gandhi

Hi,
EP as part of Netweaver is available for Virtualization.
As a good starting point for you i will suggest these two threads:
