ODAC installs includes Oracle MTS Recovery service. Is this a must?

Hi,
I'm installing the ODAC on the PC which is just a client. However the installation prompted for " OS error in starting service OracleMTSRecoveryService". It is just a client PC, Not a server, do we really need this?
thanks
andrew

Hi,
As mentioned in the other post (what is the difference between odp.net and odac ? and multiple homes?
The .NET forums are probably a better place for these sorts of questions.
The Windows and .NET forums are located here:
http://forums.oracle.com/forums/category.jspa?categoryID=44
If you don't need or use Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) then, no, you don't need the OracleMTSRecoveryService service.

Mark

MTS Recovery Service Terminates on Time-Out - Need to Restart Server

Has anyone encountered this error before?
We have an Oracle9i Release 2 Database Server (patched 9.2.0.8) installed on a Windows 2000 Server (latest service pack). Once in while we get this haphazard error that pops up in the Windows Event Viewer:
MTS Recovery Service Terminated With the Following Error -
The Wait Operation Timed Out.
When this error occurs, application end users notice that either their connection to the database becomes extremely slow or are disconnected. The fix is to restart the server. What is the cause of the problem and is there a workaround?
Thanks!
TJ

Hi,
I understand you install the services on a single PC. Are those services set to run automatically? I remember facing this issue myself several times and I guess it's because of the time gap and order that the services start. I.e. when database service is just starting and in the meantime any EPM service is trying to start, it can not start.
It would be better if you set them to run manually. You can then create a small batch file to call in the correct order.
the content of the batch would be like:
net start Hysl9SharedServices
net start Hysl9Workspace
etc.
Cheers,

Issue with Oracle MTS installation in windows server 2008

Hi Team,
Yesterday, I have installaed oracle client version 11.1.0.7, selected microsoft transaction server option and installed it in my middle tier server.
Start->program->Oracle home11g-> (Searched for oracle mts, its not available) It seems oracle client version needs ODAC to be installed (Is it correct? )
I have downloaded from oracle site. But, its throwing an error like the file is not in proper format.
1 Any special settings needs to be done for installing the MTS in windows server 2008?
2. I need to create a service in MTS to point to my database server?
3. Please share me some relative links on the same.
4. I can see MTS recovery services is running in my machine.
5. Previously, I have installed Oracle 10G client and removed it and am trying with oracle 11g. Just I have uninstalled the application and I didnt do anything. Do we need to remove anything in the registry.
This issue is very critical for me. Please share your thoughts.
Thanks and Regards,
Venkatesan Prabu .J

I have the same situation. Could you please share your experience if you resolve it? Thanks.

OracleMTS Recovery Service error

Ok I have tried everything to fix this error to no avail. Hopefully someone can help me.
Using Windows 7 64
Installed Oracle 11g release 2
Can start all Oracle services EXCEPT for the MTS Recovery service
I get an error that says:
"Windows could not start the OracleMTSRecoverService service on Local Computer. Error 1: Incorrect function.
Now I know that they have a bug listing and the fix states that I should go to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\OracleMTSRecoveryService\Protid_0
The string-type values for the following key must be set correctly:

Name: *Host*
Type: REG_SZ
Data: << the name of the host-machine e.g. [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>>>
This key must contain the host name of the system on which the registry key exists.
Now I have checked and what I have is:
Name: Host
Type: REG_SZ
Data: MrsBentley-PC
What in the world am I missing here?
Thanks for the help in advance!
Lisa B.

What in the world am I missing here?If you're talking about an XE installation, nothing relevant. Set the MTS service startup to Manual, and it leave it be.
Its not needed in an XE install.

How to install downloaded Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release 2 for linux

Hi folks,
I downloaded d2k6irelease2.tar (Oracle Forms Developer/Services 6i Release
2 for linux) from
http://otn.oracle.com/software/products/forms/htdocs/linuxsoft.html
I untar the file on my linux machine however the extracted files don't
seem to contain any installing program. I didn't find products.jar in the
files and there are no script to install the software. I read the attached
doc, however it only assumes that the installation is from CD-ROM. The doc
doesn't help anything for this downloaded software. I wonder if anyone
here know how to install it. Thank you so much.
Best regards,
Kai Huang

There should be a text based installer in the /orainst sub-
directory
In that directory, just run the script:
./orainst
The installer seems to require libXm.a, which wasn't included in
my RH 7.1 installation, so I had to install the motif-
development libraries before the full install would complete
successfully.

Where can I find MMC for Oracle MTS?

According to 'Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server Developer's Guide', the mmc for Oracle MTS can be invoked by clicking (Start > Programs > Oracle - HOME_NAME > Application Development > Oracle Manager for Microsoft Transaction Server) Heh heh, there is even a picture of the mmc in the documentation.
I've checked three computers that have Oracle Client 9.2.0.6 (Adminstrator configs) installed. The mmc doesn't appear to be installed on either of the computers.
However, the OracleMTSRecoveryService was created when the Oracle Client was installed but the service needs to be configured. If the mmc was not installed then how do I manually configure the registery to point OracleMTSRecoveryService to a specific instance on another server. Ie. Setup OracleMTSRecovery Service for FOO_BAR. The FOO_BAR alias in tnsnames.ora is instance FOO on server BAR using port 1521.
The script 'oramtsadmin.sql' has been run on FOO_BAR.
LOL - Should I be concerned that Installation chapter of the 'Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server Developer's Guide' talks more about deleting OracleMTSRecoverService than installing it?

The publically available information is available at http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/applications.html
Last time I looked (several years ago), the TRMs were available only through Support to users registered to use the Apps. My info might be out of date - suggest you open a Service Request with Support.

Transaction Recovery Service failover

Can anyone explain what the suggested configuration is for the default persistence store? In particular, this is to ensure the proper failover / migration of the Transaction Recovery Service which is required to use the Default Persistence Store which is file based. Based on the following statement from the docs:
Preparing to Migrate the Transaction Recovery Service
To migrate the Transaction Recovery Service from a failed server in a cluster to another server (backup server) in the same cluster, the backup server must have access to the transaction log records from the failed server. Therefore, you must store default persistent store data files on persistent storage available to all potential backup servers in the cluster. Oracle recommends that you store transaction log records on a Storage Area Network (SAN) device or a dual-ported disk. Do not use an NFS file system to store transaction log records. Because of the caching scheme in NFS, files on disk may not always be current. Using transaction log records stored on an NFS device for recovery may cause data corruption.
A SAN storage device is recommended for this but my understanding is that the SAN can only be mounted by one machine at a time. Does this imply then that our failover process needs to include mounting the SAN before starting the failover server (as part of the whole server migration)? The docs here (http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E15523_01/core.1111/e12036/net.htm#CIHBDDAA) indicate that a NAS can be used and even give examples of configuring it using NFS mount points:
The following commands show how to share the SOA TX logs location across different nodes:
SOAHOST1> mount nasfiler:/vol/vol1/u01/app/oracle/stores/soadomain/soa_cluster/tlogs
+/u01/app/oracle/stores/soadomain/soa_cluster/tlogs -t nfs+
SOAHOST2> nasfiler:/vol/vol1/u01/app/oracle/stores/soadomain/soa_cluster/tlogs
+/u01/app/oracle/stores/soadomain/soa_cluster/tlogs -t nfs+
Can anyone describe a best-practices approach for how to configure the expected persistent storage solution that will work with proper failover of the transaction recovery service?
Thanks!
Gary

Error while installing Oracle Cluster Ready Services Release 1 (10.1.0.2)

Hi all,
I am trying for RAC 10gR1 (10.1.0.2) using two machines with Windows 2000 Server. For this I need to install Oracle Cluster Ready Services Release 1 (10.1.0.2).

Installation of client Essbase Administration Services Console 11.1.2

My EAS console opens and connects successfully, but I am unable to right-click outline members or expand the outline by clicking on dimension names.
I tried to install the client tier of Oracle EPM 11.1.2 including EAS console, EPMA, and Reports on my laptop. I'm running 32-bit Windows 7. After a few failures, I thought I successfully installed these products by:
1) first installing the Microsoft Loopback Adapter (not sure this was necessary),
2) running the install "as Administrator", and
3) copying this folder from a colleague's installation: C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console\workspace. The last folder was probably not created in the installation for some reason. I only realized that this folder was missing when I found this error log when trying to login Essbase Studio -
!STACK 1
java.lang.IllegalStateException: The platform metadata area could not be written: C:\Oracle\Middleware\EPMSystem11R1\products\Essbase\EssbaseStudio\Console\workspace\.metadata. By default the platform writes its content
under the current working directory when the platform is launched. Use the -data parameter to
specify a different content area for the platform.
etc.
After all this, I can successfully login to Essbase Studio, however, my EAS console still does not work properly. I realize I can use the web console, but I think this is an installation problem that will cause problems later with other products.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I've experienced similiar problems in multiple environments. Even the outline for Sample.Basic was locked. I just stumbled across something that corrected the problem (at least for now :) ). I opened one of my outlines, selected the "*Account*" dimension and then chose to "*sort the children of the selected member in descending order*" (menu option directly above database outline) and somehow that unlocked my outline. Not sure why that solved the problem, but it did.

o     Select Enter to continue with a graphical install on the console. (For other installation methods and options, refer to the Red Hat Installation Guide.)
o     The installer scans your hardware, briefly displays the Red Hat splash screen, and then begins a series of screen prompts.
3.     Language Selection
o     Accept the default.

8.     Disk Partitioning Setup
o     A thorough treatment of disk partitioning is beyond the scope of this article, which assumes that you are familiar with disk partitioning methods.
(WARNING: Improperly partitioning a disk is one of the surest and fastest ways to wipe out everything on your hard disk. If you are unsure how to proceed, stop and get help, or you will risk losing data!)
This article uses the following partitioning scheme, with ext3 for each filesystem:
The 9GB disk on the first controller (/dev/sda) will hold all Linux and Oracle software and contains the following partitions:
- 100MB /boot partition
-1,500MB swap partitionâSet this to at least twice the amount of RAM in the system but to no more than 2GB (32-bit systems do not support swap files larger than 2GB). If you need more than 2GB of swap space, create multiple swap partitions.
-7,150MB root partitionâ This partition will be used for everything, including /usr, /tmp, /var, /opt, /home, and more. This was done purely to simplify installation for the purposes of this guide. A more robust partitioning scheme would separate these directories onto separate filesystems.
9.     Boot Loader Configuration
o     Accept the default.
10.     Network Configuration
o     It is usually best to configure database servers with a static IP address. To do so, click on Edit.
o     A pop-up window appears. Uncheck the Configure using DHCP box, and enter the IP Address and Netmask for the server. Be sure that Activate on boot is checked, and click on OK.
o     In the Hostname box, select manually and enter the hostname.
o     In the Miscellaneous Settings box, enter the remaining network settings.
11.     Firewall Configuration
o     For the purposes of this walk-through, no firewall is configured. Select No firewall.
12.     Additional Language Support
o     Accept the default.
13.     Time Zone Selection
o     Choose the time settings that are appropriate for your area. Setting the system clock to UTC is usually a good practice for servers. To do so, click on System clock uses UTC.
14.     Set Root Password
o     Enter a password for root, and enter it again to confirm.

There will no error in installation in infrastructure
Same as done with relink file in Middle tier installation. I would like to turn ur attention for a serious problem no one asked about it. Here u have seen that a script make 3 file in /usr/local/bin for infrastructure and middle tier when u finished infrastructureâs installation plz rename that 3 files as
Mv coredb coredb-infra
Mv dbhome dbhome-infra
Mv ora     â¦     oraâ¦-infra
If u overwrite that files by creating same name of middle tier files no problem.
When problem comes?
AS will work fine but when u have to install patches on AS then problem comes if u have overwrite that files. So plz rename them before creation of same files of middle tier. Thanx

Installation of OracleAS 10g on Red Hat Linux ES 3.0

Installation of Oracle AS 10g on RedHat ES 3.0
Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3
Copy from OTN Note
Start
Oracle 10g is certified to run the base release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 (Advanced Server and Enterprise Server) without updates. If you have update CDs, you can use the boot CD from the update instead of the boot CD from the base release to automatically apply all updates during the installation. All updates from Red Hat are supported by Oracle.

Need help in oracle data recovery

Friends ,i need help in oracle data recovery.
I had an oracle 8i database running on windows.
For some reason Windows operating system crashed.
It is not booting up.
I dont have current backups.But my database physical files are in the disk.
Controlfile,datafiles and redo log files are there.
Is there any way I can recover my database?
Please help in this issue.
regards
Ajith

HI citrus,
thanks for the reply.
I have installed database 9i on the same PC after O/S reinstallation.
You are saying that ,I need to keep oracle root folder same as that of my old installation ,and copy control files,redo log and data files in exactly same folders as that of old database,and then start the database?
thank you for your patience and support.
regards.,
Ajith

11. In SQL Developer, View, RESTful Services. In the RESTful services windows hit connect, Create a new connection,
Connection Name DEV
Username adminlistener
selected http protocol
Hostname weblogicservername
Port 7250
Server Path /apex
Workspace (blank)
On the Authentication dialog
Username adminlistener
Password passwordsuppliedabove in step 6
Response is a dialog box titled Authentication Failed
message - Cannot connect to DEV. HTTP/1.1 403 Target service not allowed
NOTHING UNUSUAL IN ANY OF THE WEBLOGIC LOG FILES, EXCEPT THAT IT STATES
'Oracle REST Data Services version : 2.0.6.27.18.06' when I've installed 2.0.7.
Any help much appreciated

Further to the above post, I thought I'd simplify my Apex Listener install just to see if I can connect to it via SQL Developer
So downloaded the latest version 2.0.8 and decided to configure and run the Listener on my pc whilst still connecting to the same database.
Operating system : Window 7 Pro 64 bit
Oracle Apex Listener 2.0.8
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_25-b17)
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.25-b01, mixed mode)
Went through the configuration as above, once started I tried again to access the listener via SQL Developer. This time I received this output from the listener:
INFO: Error: ORA-02291: integrity constraint (APEX_040200.WWV_FLOW_RT$APPROVALS_SGID_FK) violated - parent key not found, occurred during execution of: [CALL, insert into wwv_flow_rt$approvals (user_name,status,client_id,security_group_id,created_by,created_on,updated_by,updated_on) values(/*in:user_id*/?,/*in:status*/?,/*in:client_id*/?,/*in:tenant_id*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?,upper(/*in:user_id*/?),/*in:created*/?), [tenant_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [client_id, in, class java.math.BigInteger], [user_id, in, class java.lang.String], [status, in, class oracle.dbtools.rt.oauth.ApprovalRequest$Status], [created, in, class java.sql.Timestamp]]with values: [adminlistener, APPROVED, 3858401374580004, -1, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785, adminlistener, 2014-06-23 12:19:18.785]
SQL Developer responded with an Authentication Failed titled dialog with the following displayed in the body of the dialog
Cannot connect to DEV.

I am assuming this must be part of the problem I am seeing this the Weblogic deployment in my original post.
Does anyone have any suggestions on how best to tackle this?
Regards,
Derek

ODAC installs includes Oracle MTS Recovery service. Is this a must?
