OCS 10g Clients to OCS 9.0.4.2 Backend

Hi folks
Since I'm migrating a lot of users to ocs 9.0.4.2 and also migrating to 10g soon, i'd like to install the client tools on the pc's only once. Is it possible to use the 10g client tools against a OCS 9.0.4.2 backend?
Regards, Christian

I know that the Calendar client 10.1.1 is certified against server 9.0.4.2, don't know for other clients. You should raise a TAR, as the support definetly can provide you with this information.
Regards

  • Forms 6i & SRW.Run_Report does not work on 10g client

    Hello Sir/Madam,
    I'm using 10g client with Forms & Reports 6i.
    FORMS 6i error => for some reason this combination is prompting FRM-10102 & FRM-40039 errors
    Attempted so far => attached the library, complied, it compiles ok, but somehow loses the library file at runtime
    Reports 6i issue => for Reports seems like it does not recognize SRW.Run_report built-in
    Attempted to run without "srw.run_report" it works..
    Please help me understand if any necessary "*.dll" files are missing? if so what might that be?
    Regards,
    Vani Sonti

    When you install Forms and Reports 6i, the correct Oracle client (8) is installed. I don't know what you did exactly, but you shouldn't try to change that.
    You can install the 10g client, but in a separate Oracle home. This way Forms and Reports still use the 8 client.
    FRM-10102 & FRM-40039 errorsThat looks like a problem in your forms60_path registry setting.

  • How can I delete an ODBC data source after 10g client has been uninstalled?

    I uninstalled the 10g client and now when I attempt to delete the ODBC data source, I get an error: "The setup routines for the Oracle in Oraclient10g_home2 ODBC driver could not be found. Please reinstall the driver. I re-installed the client and I get the same error, but I had to specify a new home. I still get the error. Anyone have an answer or a workaround to deleting the ODBC entry so that I can re-create with the same name later under the 9i client?

    I have the same problem... and nobody gots the point:
    1st. the ODBC and the client/home exists on the machine...
    2nd. the client/home is unistalled and so...
    3rd. tada! Now we have a impossible-to-unistall ODBC entry!
    That is happening on a Windows, at last to me...
    Please, help us if someone knows how to remove this ODBC entry... if know how to DO the stuff (permissions, system, all that things is answered above).

  • Windows 7 64 bit, Access 2010 32 bit, Oracle 10G client 32 bit, Oracle database 10.2.0.4 64 bit

    I am trying to connect to an Oracle 10.2.0.4 database from Windows 7 OS - 64 bit using
    Access 2010 32 bit and Oracle 32 bit client version 10.2.0.1 installed on PC.
    My user requires a 64 bit Windows 7 OS for other needs.
    Oracle ODBC driver is 32 bit from Oracle 32 bit client.
    In Windows 7 OS 64 bit, ODBC DSN setup software is located in:
    C:\Windows\system32\odbcad32.exe for 64 bit drivers - all DSN types setup and
    C:\Windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe for 32 bit drivers - USER DSN setup
    When I run the ODBC Data Source Administrator, I see the Version number is 6.1.7601.17632
    I setup a User DSN using the 32 bit odbcad32.exe with a 32 bit ODBC driver.
    Our Oracle TNSnames.ora file has our standard entries which have worked for years
    (Windows 7 OS 32 bit and everything 32 bit has connected for years too)
    So when I configure an ODBC User DSN and leave all the default settings and press the TEST Connection button, it says it works.
    But when I open the existng Access 2010 database (which does connect to Oracle in a Windows 7 32 bit PC environment),
    1. I go to Access External Data ribbon tab / Link to the Data Source by creating a linked table / press OK
    2. I select the Machine Data source = to the USER DSN name / press OK
    3. The Oracle ODBC Driver Connect Window opens with Service Name = USER DSN and User Name and it wants a Password
    4. I enter the correct password and I get the following error message:
    ODBC call failed
    [Oracle][ODBC]{Ora]ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    (#12154) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed IM006 0
             [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed (#0)
    I have tried a quite a number of fixes:
    I have gone into the PC registry and cleaned out most or all off the Oracle client keys and
    reinstalled the Oracle 32 bit 10g client. It didn't fix the error.
    I read about the Oracle instantclient-basic-win32-10.2.0.4.zip with ODBC modules but I have Windows 7 64 bit.
    Anyone experienced a problem like this and have a fix?

    Thank you for your reply.
    I did not get to try it because after I entered my question, I did a lot more internet Googling.
    I found this small comment:
    “There's a known issue where you get a 12154 error message running 32 bit software on a 64 bit OS using client 10201, and
    It should be resolved by patching the client to 10204, which you do by applying the 10204 database patch to it.”
    I searched around for the 10.2.0.4 patch for 10.2.0.1 Oracle 32 bit client.
    When I contacted my Oracle DBA to ask if he had that patch, he said that I should try the 11g 32 bit client on the Win 7 64 bit PC.
    We have a 10.2.0.4 Oracle database but he said the 11g client should work fine.
    I tried it and it solved the problem!
    With so many settings, configurations and permissions involved in ODBC, I am inclined to think that I missed a setting but
    it was a bug in the 32 bit client 10.2.0.1.
    Solved.

  • TNS-12541: No listner on Windows VISTA (oracle 10g client)

    Hi all,
    After installing an Oracle 10g Client for Windows Vista, when trying to connect to the database, i got the error No listner (TNS-12541). I checked the database listner but it's running and i can connect there from XP OS client. Does anybody have an idea about that.
    tnsping give the same error also but when i ping the server it gives response.
    Any body has experioenced the same problem, if yes could you help please it's very urgent.
    Thanks regards
    raitsarevo

    raitsarevo,
    First of all: it's not very urgent. Very urgent requests end up in a SR at http://metalink.oracle.com.
    Oracle doesn't support all editions of Vista and 10g may not even support Vista at all. Please refer to the download page for 10g at http://otn.oracle.com for further details.
    A non-supported edition of Mickeysoft usually results in Oracle Net issues.

  • What is the official procedure to install a 10g-Client on SLES10

    Hi,
    we are having a server running SuSE SLES10 and we need to have it access a 10g database.
    We had a look at the certification-matrix and found that the combination
    SLES10/10g-Client is supported by Oracle.
    We know this now, but the installer obviously does not:
    snip
    # /home/oraclient/client/runInstaller
    Starting Oracle Universal Installer...
    Checking installer requirements...
    Checking operating system version: must be redhat-3, SuSE-9, redhat-4,
    UnitedLinux-1.0, asianux-1 or asianux-2
    Failed <<<<
    Exiting Oracle Universal Installer, log for this session can be found at
    snip
    Although I found a way to circumvent the problem (I edited /etc/SuSE-release before installation, changed it back after inst.) - I am eager to know whether anyone
    can point me out any "official" Oracle-Page describing how to install.
    The installation guide does not help. I searched the forum and found you can
    start the installer with -nosysprereqs.
    But where can I find official information how to install? The problem is that I have to document everything I do, and this documentation is monitored closely, so I do not want to use any tricks that are NOT explained in a whitepaper or something similar. I
    have to show that what I did is supported.
    Any help welcome
    Arno

    You are right, installation guides (and corresponding check routines) are sometimes not up-to-date. Always check Release Notes for newer (and official) statements:

  • On Windows 2003 64-bit, Which 10g Client to Install ?

    hello again,
    I have a server with the Windows 2003 Enterprise 64-bit operating system.
    I need to install Oracle 10g Enterprise onto the server.
    I noticed there are 2 install folders for the 10g Client R2 - one is R2 x32 and the other is R2 x64. I want to be sure I install the best, most problem-free version of the client.
    Are there any known issues with using the 64-bit client? Sorry for the lame question - I googled and didn't find much.
    Thanks, John

    That's correct. And the primary application that will be installed is 32-bit. But I don't think it needs to interact with the client tools at all.
    We are upgrading the server from 32 bit to 64, the OS and the database from 9i Enterprise 32 bit to 10g Enterprise.
    I may just install the 32 bit client to avoid any problems.
    Thanks, John

  • Differences between Oracle 10G Client ODBC from 10.1.x to 10.2.x (datatype)

    What differences where implemented to Oracle 10G Clients ODBC connectivity drivers between 10G Release 1 and Release 2 concerning datatypes?
    I have an application that performs a qualified read returning a group of records (this is successful) and then performs a delete on each record read. No errors occur on completion of the application. When using release 1, the records are physically removed. Using release 2 a portion of the same group of records are not removed. The key for the table is a numeric field with six decimal places (not my design). My applications C code defines the field as a DOUBLE.

    I certainly agree that something changed. The question is whether it was a change in function or not. With a lot of these sorts of errors, tracking down the "source" of the error involves finding a change in a piece of code that allowed what was always possible to actually occur. That is, you may have two pieces of code that are functionally identical but that end up allowing the sorts of "round off" errors that are always possible when using doubles. The driver might, for example, now be going down a code path where it shifts a number to the right or left rather than dividing or multiplying by 2, which may make this sort of thing more likely. Functionally, given that doubles don't guarantee infinite precision, these operations are identical, but one may be significantly more likely to cause problems.
    Is your application using the ODBC API directly? Or is it going through a higher-level API? If you are going through ODBC directly, you might look to see whether the data types that are being returned by the driver to your code are the same across driver versions.

  • Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

    hello,
    I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
    I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
    I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
    DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
    someone there had the same concerns?
    cordially

    Hi,
    so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
    Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.
    Regards

  • Connecting to Oracle XE via regular 10g client - ORA-12514

    I have had the 10g client installled on my computer for a while, for developing against our company Oracle databases. I have now installed the XE database locally on my computer so I can do some local development - according to the information I've been able to find the two should live side-by-side without problem.
    I can still connect to our company databases just fine, but I can't get a connection to the local XE database at all.
    I've added this line to tnsnames.ora:
    XE = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = XE)))
    The error I'm getting connecting is:
    ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor
    Thanks for any help!

    Hi,
    I did mean duplicates even between different tnsnames.ora files.
    As I understand, if you XE works, you should not need do anything for that tnsnames.ora.
    Just find how entry should be for client.
    BTW, what tool you will use for XE? Do you need client?
    E.g. if you use SQL Developer, you do not need client or set anything to tnsnames.ora
    Regards,
    Jari
    Edited by: jarola on Jan 18, 2011 2:30 PM
    BTW, it might good to search Instant Client forums if you find help there.
    If you do not find answer, then it might good idea post question there.
    At least for me this is more client question than XE.
    Instant Client
    But as I understand it should not be any problem use 10g client for XE.
    I just have never done that =)

  • 10g client mangles national characters, 9i client is ok

    We are having a strange problem with some 10.2.0.4.0 clients on Windows XP. They make an incorrect conversion of national characters while querying from a 10.2.0.4.0 database. For example, the "ä" letter in the result set is converted to "a", which must not happen. When connecting to the same 10g database with a 9i client and issuing exactly the same SELECT statement, the result is correct. How can we make the 10g client treat national characters correctly?

    Thanks for your help everybody. Yes, there was a conflict between the database and client character sets. I used the NLS_LANG environment variable in Windows to instruct the client to use the same character set with the database, and this seems to solve the problem.
    I just wonder how the 9i client was able to do what we wanted, while there were problems with 10g. There are exactly the same NLS_LANG values in the registry for 9i and 10g, each containing a character set part that is inconsistent with that of the database. Also, after setting NLS_LANG in Windows, 9i still gave the correct result, as if NLS_LANG had no effect on it.

  • Oracle 10g Client and ODAC Side-By-Side

    Hi there, I was unable to find an answer to my query by using search, but apologies if this is a double-post.
    I'm having some issues with a ASP.NET application running on a Windows XP Pro machine. The machine has Oracle 10g client installed (oraClient10g_home1), and also ODAC (ODACHome2).
    The part of my web application that accesses our Oracle DB (10g), always gets a ORA-12154 error when it tries to connect, but SQL*Plus and tnsping for this TNS both work on the machine.
    When I use tnsping from the command line it looks like its using parameter files from the ODAC home, rather than the 10g client home.
    On my development machine (where ODAC is not installed), the application works fine.
    Does anyone have any idea if there are any issues having both of these clients installed?
    Or otherwise where my problem could be?
    Thanks very much in advance,
    James Simm

    Thanks for the link, however it hasn't solved my issues:
    The version of ODP.Net installed is 10.2.0.2.20, and the Oracle Client is 10.2, so according to that link it should be able to automatically switch between Oracle Homes.
    The application I'm troubleshooting doesn't actually use ODP.Net, it uses System.Data.OracleClient, but ODP.Net is required for another application.
    I'm extremely stuck, as I cannot understand why I'm getting ORA-12154 when every other Oracle application on the machine can access it.
    Please let me know if there are any other things I can try, or if you need any information from me?
    Thanks in advance,
    James Simm
