Cant connect to Ora8.1.6 db using OLEDB provider for Ora8.1.7 cant find 8.1.6 OLEDB

Hello,
I need to connect to an Oracle 8.1.6 Database using OLEDB. Currently, we have one workstation with an ODBC connection and has an OLEDB Provider for Oracle 8.1.6. I can connect to Oracle using OLEDB on this machine (Winnt4 SP4) and see data from the tables. But I need to connect to the same Oracle DB from another workstation (Winnt4 SP6).
I dowloaded the OLEDB Provider for Oracle8i from the Oracle Website, and on install I observed that this one was for Oracle 8.1.7. I keep getting an error message that it can't resovle the Service Name. I have played with the Net8 Configuration assistant for Oracle8i and the other selection for Oracle8.0 or 7.0. But I keep getting the same error on the NT SP6 machine. I have looked at the tnsnames.ora file on the SP6 machine and the SP4 machine. They are different, and I tried to make the .ora file on the SP6 machine match the .ora file on the SP4 machine but still can't resolve the Service Name. I would be very grateful if someone could help me out - either finding an earlier OLEDB Provider or some configuration trick.
Many thanks,
Rich Protzel

Did you ever get this issue resolved? Do you know where I can get the Oracle Provider for OLE DB for 8.1.6?

AutoCommit Setting for the Microsft OleDB Provider for Oracle(MSDAORA)

Hi,
The default setting for the AutoCommit(MSDAORA) is "On". can any one please tell me how to set this Off.
thanks

To use 32 bit oraoledb, you'll need to set IIS to run in 32 bit mode.
Or, install 64 bit oledb/client instead.
Hope it helps,

Did you set OLEDB.NET=True in your Connection string?

Differences between Oracle OLEDB Provider & Microsoft version

I am trying to connect to an Oracle database from a SQL Server SSIS package. When I use the Microsoft OLEDB Provider for Oracle (MSDAORA) the connection manager in the package sees a full list of the tables in the Oracle database but when I use Oracle's own OLEDB provider (Oracle.OLEDB.1) I see a much smaller list. I cannot see anything different about the tables that Oracle's Oracle provider fails to see. Has anyone come across this phenomenon before ? Are there some table name characters or data types that the Oracle provider objects to ?

Not very likely.
One possible explanation is they query different levels of the datadictionary.
Sometimes the ALL_ level is queried, sometimes the DBA_ level, sometimes the USER_ level.
At least you need to ascertain whether you are using the same Oracle account in both drivers. This can also make a difference.
Anyhow: usually the Oracle driver implements way more functionality compared to the Microsoft driver, so the Oracle driver is to be preferred anyway.
And probably the Oracle drivers results are correct (one really should use the ALL_ level instead of the DBA_ level).

Oracle.Oledb provider returning improper out-put

Dear All,
Need your help in below issue.
I have SSIS package which pull data from Oracle to SQL Server.
Currently I have used Oracle.Oledb provider for the same, but it is giving me improper result.
I check on oracle end count for that table was 26000 and when I run the same query through SSIS it shows 0 rows.
The preview of the query is showing 0 as output.
but when I tried the same using Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle it giving me proper out-put

Hi Sushant,
UseSessionFormat - specifies whether to use the default NLS session formats or let OraOLEDB override some of these formats for the duration of the session. Valid values are 0 (FALSE) and 1 (TRUE). The default is FALSE which lets OraOLEDB override some of
the default NLS session formats. If the value is TRUE, OraOLEDB uses the default NLS session formats.
Setting UseSessionFormat=true in the connection string will result in the provider using the session format specified by the client install, which should resolve this issue. The following connection string for the connection like below:
Data Source=DataSourceNameHere;User ID=UserIDHere;Password=PasswordHere;Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle.1;Persist Security Info=True;UseSessionFormat=True;

Oracle OleDB Provider VS MS OleDB Provider

I am using Stored Procedures in Oracle Packages and Microsoft ADO for data access.
My Stored Procedure use a Ref Cursor output parameter to make data available to ADO's recordsets.
A big difference in network traffic is found between "Microsoft OLEDB Provider for Oracle" and "Oracle OLEDB Provider" (the native driver provided by Oracle).
The main issue :
<<Oracle OLEDB Provider>>
1) A stored procedure is put into an empty package for testing and returning no row, the result is 4KB downstream traffic.
2) When the SAME stored procedure is put into a large package (a package that already contained 30 other stored procedures, > 1000 lines codes), the result is 70KB downstream traffic for same call that return no row.
<<Microsoft OLEDB Provider>>
1) and 2) both use approximately 4KB downstream traffic.
However, for a query that return large number of rows (~2000 rows), Oracle OLEDB Provider used 143KB but MS OLEDB Provider used 400KB downstream.
The behaviours for upstream are similar.
My application is required utilize limited bandwidth, the the strange behaviour of the Oracle OLEDB Provider make my development of "Packaged" Stored Procedures a big problem.
Does anyone know if there are any tricky on the Oracle OLEDB Provider? Please advice, thanks in advance.

Jeff

Sounds like the bug 2597418 that was fixed and released in 9.2.0.2 of Oracle OLEDB Provider

Oracle database connectivity using oledb provider and atl classes in c++

dear friend ,
i m connecting oracle database in c++. i m using ATL classes and oledb provider for oracle. however i m facing some defficulties in stored procedure.
Normally MYSQL and sql server database is resulting result set in stored procedure i.e. we can use " select * from tablename" query in c++ to returning result. but in oracle we can not use this approch as because it dosent support. so how can i execute below stored procedure in c++ code. i have to retuen result set in STP. i m using SYS_REFCURSER in oracle . but how do i execute it in c++ code.
create PROCEDURE stp_getRecord ( p_curser SYS_REFCURSER) as
begin
open p_curser for select * from table_name;
end;
please help me asap.

I tried it, commented out the reader.read and have the following connection string
string connectionString = "provider=ORAOLEDB.ORACLE; data source=ORCL; password=****; user id=****; OLEDB.NET=True"
Unfortunately the result is the same.

BUG With 10g OleDB Provider!

Hi there!
I originally thought I was going mad, but now I think there's a bug in the 10g Oracle OleDB Provider. I can repeat this at will on my systems:
* Windows XP SP2 (with all the latest Windows Update Patches)
* Oracle Client (including OleDB Provider) v10.2.0.1.0
* MDAC 2.8 SP1 (with Windows XP SP2)
or
* Windows 2000 Workstation (with all the latest Windows Update Patches)
* Oracle Client (including OleDB Provider) v10.2.0.1.0
* MDAC 2.7
Here's all I have to do!
1) Create a table with some data in Oracle (have tested this against 8i, 9i and 10g databases):
CONN your_username/your_password@your_tns_service_name
CREATE TABLE OLEDB_TEST
     RECORD_ID     NUMBER(5) NOT NULL,
     RECORD_DESC     VARCHAR2(50) NOT NULL
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(0    , '0     is OK!');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(1    , '1     is OK!');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(10   , '10    is wrong - comes out as 0');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(12   , '12    is OK');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(100 , '100   is wrong - comes out as 0');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(120 , '120   is wrong - comes out as 20');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(1200 , '1200 is wrong - comes out as 0');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(1230 , '1230 is wrong - comes out as 230');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(12300, '12300 is wrong - comes out as 300');
INSERT INTO OLEDB_TEST VALUES(12340, '12340 is wrong - comes out as 2340');

This is KILLING me!!!
You will notice that there is a line of code that is commented out which uses the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle instead. This works fine and dandy. The trouble is I can't use it, as I need functionality in the Oracle provider that the MS provider doesn't have! OUCH!
Can anyone confirm that they get the same problems, or is there something else in my system that is messing things up??
Many thanks for any help!

It does not affect VS2005. I tried this code on

Which version of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 OLE DB Provider for DB2 needed?

Hello, first time posting.....
I am developing an SSIS package that needs to connect to DB2 tables. My environment does not have the necessary providers installed (SQL Server 2012 OLE DB Provider for DB2).
I am running SSIS on a Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard server, w/ SQL Server 2012 R2 installed.
I noticed OLEDB Provider for DB2 v4.0 for SQL Server 2012 does not support Windows Server 2008 R2.
Also, there appears to be a version 5 OLEDB Provider for DB2, bundled with SQL Server 2014 Feature Pack, but I am not running SQL 2014.
Could someone please tell me which version I need to install for Windows Server 2012 R2, running SQL Server 2012 R2?
Thanks!

Also, there appears to be a version 5 OLEDB Provider for DB2, bundled with SQL Server 2014 Feature Pack, but I am not running SQL 2014.
The DB2 OleDB Provider is completly independend of the used SQL Server/SSIS Version; you can use that one.

Append hint + ADO + Oracle OleDB Provider

Hi everybody!
This is my first post here in this great forum! ;-)
I have a problem using Append hint with Oracle OleDB Provider and I've been searching internet for an answer without any luck.
I'm trying to use Append hint with ADO + Oracle OleDB Provider (OraOLEDB.Oracle.1), like in the SQL below:
INSERT /*+APPEND*/
INTO my_table(field1, field2, field3)
SELECT 0 field1, v.field2, v.field3)
FROM my_second_table v
The problem: Oracle is still creting log for this INSERT (It is working like there was no Append hint).
If I use the same SQL statement with Microsoft Ole DB Provider for Oracle, the Append hint works as expected (log is not created), but doesn't work at all with Oracle DB Provider.
Trace shows me that the SQL sentence is ok (the append hint is there!).
I've tried Oracle servers 9.2 and/or 10g, and the problem is the same.
Question: Does Append hint work with Oracle OleDB Provider? If yes, why it is not working? Something related with connection properties?
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Hi Solomon, thanks for you answer.
Is the same SQL against the same database, with the same program, using ADO + OleDB Provider.
The table is in NOLOGGING mode.
When I use Microsoft OleDB Provider for Oracle there is no log creation. Then I disconnect and reconnect to the same server/database, using Oracle OleDB Provider. Then I execute the same SQL and.... there IS log creation, meaning that in that scenario, append hint is being ignored. I can't figure out WHY!!! :-(
Alexandre,
I'm not sure what you mean by "there is log creation". In general you need to distinguish between UNDO and REDO generation. A direct-path insert (APPEND hint) doesn't generate undo but still can generate redo, depending on the ARCHIVELOG / FORCE LOGGING mode of the tablespace resp. database and the LOGGING/NOLOGGING attribute of the table.
Note that in case indexes exist on the table there will always be undo and therefore redo generation for the index maintenance as part of the direct-path insert.
You should check V$SESSION (SQL_ID in 10g, SQL_ADDRESS + SQL_HASH_VALUE in pre-10g) and V$SQL in the database to double check if the SQL passed by the Oracle OLEDB Provider actually contains the APPEND hint in case the INSERT actually generates UNDO (which is the indicator that shows you if the direct-path insert is used or not). Whether it generates REDO is - as already mentioned - depending on other factors.
So the question is how have you determined if the direct-path insert mode has been used or not?
The simplest approach to test if direct-path insert mode is used or not is to issue a query on the object inserted into after the insert before committing the transaction. If it fails with "ORA-12838: cannot read/modify an object after modifying it in parallel" then you successfully inserted using direct-path insert.
Note that there a number of restrictions that prevent the direct-path insert from happening, in those cases the APPEND hint will be silently ignored, e.g. enabled triggers, foreign keys on the table. A quite comprehensive list of restrictions is listed in the manuals here:

Installing OLEDB Provider (10.2.0.3) for use in creating SQL Linked Servers

I've installed the Oracle OLEDB Provider (version 10.2.0.3) on my SQL Server 2005 box (Windows 2008 64-bit). However, when I reboot the server after install I do not see the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider in my list of providers available to use to create a linked server to the Oracle database.
Could someone help steer me in the right direction?
Thanks!!

Hi,
This forum is for links from Oracle to non-Oracle databases. For issues with connectivity to Oracle using ODBC/OLEDB it would be better to ask the question in the ODBC forum -
ODBC
They have the experience of connections to Oracle and the software involved.

SQL Server 2014 Express (32 bit) issues with Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Visual FoxPro

Hello, I am trying to create a sample data warehouse and some reports etc to demonstrate SQL server and subsequent automation to a company I am working for. I am trying to import data from the company's VFP based software into a new SQL Server database.
(please note, this is not custom developed software, so i am unable to push the data from VPF)
I keep getting errors and SQL server crashes when i try to access the Microsofl OLE DB Provider for Visual Fox Pro similar to this thread https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/88296548-553e-4402-93e3-6f26f5de343d/dtswizard-importexport-utility-error-trying-to-use-vfp-oledb-provider?forum=sqldataaccess
however, the solution outlined in that thread will not work, as i cannot create an SSIS package in Express.
I have also attempted to use the OLE DB in Excel as well to test it, and it crashes Excel the same way.

No, I attempted to use the Microsofl OLE DB Provider for Visual Fox Pro to access the .dbf from Excel,
and it behaved identically to the way it did in SQL Server.
I can use the Microsoft Excel Data source in SQL Server to link an excel file to SQL Server perfectly fine.

OLEDB provider VFPOLEDB for linked server returned message "Invalid path or file name"

Hello,
I'm hoping someone can shed some light on this. I'd researched this error for days, reading all the post in this forum, however none of them address my issue.
We use VFP 9 .dbf tables (free tables). I setup a linked server to query the tables. As first we were not able to view the tables in SQL Server Mgmt Studio (MSMS) until I sorted out the permissions. I can query the tables if I copy over
to the server so they are local tables. However, across the network I am continually getting the error above and the following error:
"Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider VFPOLEDB for linked server XXX."
Here are the steps I've performed...
Installed a 32 bit instance of SQL Server Express 2008 R2 using Windows Authentication on server 2 (the 64 bit instance could not see the VFP OLE DB provider, as we all know, because the provider is only 32 bit)
Installed the latest VFP OLE DB from http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=14839.
In the VFPOLEDB provider, I enabled Nested queries, Level zero only, Allow inprocess, and Supports 'Like' operator.
Setup a linked server using the following query:
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
@server = N'LinkedAC',
@srvproduct = N'Visual FoxPro 9',
@provider = N'VFPOLEDB',
@datasrc = N'"\\server1\share\TIW\KOKAC"',
@provstr = N'VFPOLEDB.1'
At first I could not view the tables when expanding default>Tables, it failed due to a "catastrophic failure". That can't be good ;-). After digging around, I surmised it was because I'd set the SQL Instance to run as NT Authority\NetworkService.
I created a new user, LinkedVFP, and added to the SQL Instance (using Windows Authentication), mapped the user to the master database with the db_datareader role. I also added the LinkedVFP user to the network share. I was then able to browse
the tables in MSMS and query the data when local, but still not across the network.
I'm using Crystal Reports to try and query the data from my local workstation using SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(mylinkedserver, 'select * from table1'). This produces the two errors I mentioned above.
To clarify, the VFP tables are on server 1 and the linked server is on server 2. I've read about service account delegation, but unclear if this is the issue. I went into our domain controller (neither server 1 or 2), AD User and Computers, and
for server 2 I enabled 'Trust this computer for delegation to any service (Kerberos only)'.
Can anyone shed some light on this for me?
Thanks!

ORacle provider for OLEDB

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed Oracle client. I can connect to the database using SQLPLUS. Tnsnames.ora file is in place.
My question is how do I activate Oracle Provider of OLEDB?
I tried to create a udl file can be used to test the connection (referred in the link provided below). To create a udl file on the desktop choose to create a new text document and name it with the .udl extension. But on the Provider page I can't see the option for "Oracle Provider for OLEDB" .
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/ui/flash.html#tab=KBHome(page=KBHome&id=()),(page=KBNavigator&id=(viewingMode=1143&from=BOOKMARK&bmDocTitle=When%20Logging%20into%20FDM%20Receive%20%22Error:%20%20ORA-12154:%20TNS:%20could%20not%20resolve%20service%20name%22&bmDocType=PROBLEM&bmDocDsrc=DOCUMENT&bmDocID=597375.1))
I can see that OLEDB folder exists under <ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME>\oledb
Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Gaurav,
Well the installer is not running on MS windows 2008. It just terminates abnormally with some UNknown error.Then please read below thread carefully, try to follow around it. If still problem then I think post the question on dedicated forum [url https://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=148&start=0]Oracle Provider for OLE DB
