ORA-12571?! Makes no sense

I everything has been working fine for months now. I then
decided to change the default character set in the database to
UTF8. The server is a Oracle8i running on Solaris. After I
changed the database I get a:
Warning: Unable to connect to ORACLE (Error while trying to
retrieve text for error ORA-12571) in db_oracle.inc on
line 37
When trying to connect with PHP on the client Linux boxes. I
can connect from Perl and sqlplus on all computers after the
change to UTF8 but not PHP. PHP is just using the standard
libs. The only thing I'm doing strange is by passing TNSnames
and putting the entire connect strings on the connect function.
Is there any environment parameters I have to add since I changed
to UTF8???

Sorry, I found my error : Trigger on Database
Maybe others are interested too:
Be careful when using triggers "on schema" or "on database",
because, as I have found, the error message doesn4t say that.
I had a few such triggers for logging purposes.
After I disabled my database triggers, I could continue compiling.

PL/SQL-Error: ORA-00604 - ORA-01422 makes no sense. Any Idea anyone ?

Problem:
No matter if creating new or recompiling old procedures
(that had been compiled successfully lon ago),
I always receive the very same error message:
ORA-00604: ...recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01422: exact fetch returns more than requested number of rows
ORA-at line 5 (mouse cursor blinks at teh first line of code...)
It is the same with PLEdit, HORA and SQL*PLUS:
even the most simple procedures are not compiled
Hints: I encounter this problem since I installed Forms 6i.
I am using database 8.1.7 on Redhat Linux (as a server),
and working on a W2K client.
Any idea anyone ?
ThanX in advance !

Why is it only possible to get French Language Films via iTunes France - I can buy Blu-ray in the Supermarket in multiple language? It makes no sense!

I am English Speaking My wife is Dutch my Children speak 3 Languages. We love AppleTV BUT we can only get films (in general) in Version Originale (French Only) and this makes no sense...
We can go to the local supermarket and buy DVDs and Blu-ray Discs that allow us to watch the up-to-date movies in a range of languages so why not on this AppleTV OTT service?
It makes no sense.
Just because we live in France does not mean we want to watch Hollywood Movies in French?
So much for What you Want-When you want-Wherever you are...

It really does have to do with content permissions. The studios that release the Bluray and DVD versions might not always be the rights bearer to the film, they just bear rights to distribute it on physical media. Most films are made by different companies, then released by Sony, Paramount, and other distribution channels. But in the online realm, different disributors own the rights (and Apple doesn't participate with them or is unable to in some countries). Perhaps Sony distributed films will sell in your local store or be played by a Sony owned TV station locally. But perhaps online Sony doesn't hold that distribution rights to distribute the film online, Warner Brothers or somebody else does. Therefor, they don't allow it online in that market. The licensing is in limbo.
Most American films I buy in China on DVD from Wal Mart, are distributed by a Chinese company and not the original American film studio. Also in USA, the price for a new DVD is about $20 USD, in China it is only $2 USD. So to limit everyone in USA from buying Chinese DVDs at a cheaper price to watch American movies, they put content restrictions on the media (ie. the DVD region codes) so the DVD won't play in an American player.
The same goes for online rights. Your local government, copyright offices and local content license holders do not distribute the movie you want online. They distribute it on physical media or TV broadcast. But they have not secured permission or agreed on what price to sell the movies for online in your market. Apple has no say in this. In fast, the only store Apple controls in the US store. All other local iTunes stores are really virtual stores in place for locals to buy from local distributors.
The Chinese people are in no hurry to download from the US iTunes store because it cost too much. But if the Americans could download from the Chinese iTunes store, they could buy any movie they like for less than $1 and all the money goes to China, and not the US. Hence the restriction.
So copyright holders are just fighting over prices and rights and don't want to or legally can't release it online in your local store.

HT202213 I am told that I have authorized 5 computers already (this is my first time) and I have to deauthorize this computer inorder to get home sharing. Help! this makes no sense. What a pain Apple tv is.

I have almost never used my appe tv--passwords and id get so confusing--it makes me tierd and I give up and walk away. But now I need to use my Home Sharing feature and am told by iTunes that I can only authorize 5 computers to do this and according to their count, I have already done 5. I have only two computers so I know this is not correct. But what can I do about it? I am told by a pop up that I should deauthorize this computer--the only one I want to use for this project--it makes no sense to me. This has already eaten up my day with reseting passwords, ids etc. I'm almost ready to throw Apple TV out. This $100.00 object has already eaten up more than $100.00 of my time! Help.

Simply deauthorize all, then authorize your computer.

I lost my Download Stacks option. Now it is just a Download folder. Need to find out how to get the Download Stacks option back. Previous answers to this question don't make any sense to me. Please help in explicit detail. PS I'm using Mountain Lion.

Need to know how to get it back to its original Download Stack. Previous answers to this questionin Apple Support just don't make any sense to me. I'd appreciate explicit directions on how to restore this feature. Currently it's just a Download folder... must have accidently poofed it away.
Help!

And if what WZZZ suggests doesn't work (and hopefully it will) move the file name below to the desktop, log out or restart and the Dock preferences with its defaults should be recreated. You'll need to re-configure it as you like it:
com.apple.dock.plist
It's located: in Finder hold the Alt/Option key and from the Go menu select Library>Preferences.
If it fixes things, delete the file on your desktop.

ORA-12571 error while creating packages from Windows clients

Hello,
We are facing the ORA-12571 error while creating / replacing packages from Windows Clients connected to a 8.1.7.2.0 db on a Solaris server.
However, there are
1. no errors in connecting and creating transactions from a Sql session
2. no errors in creating / replacing unwrapped/wrapped small (few lines) packages
3. no errors in connecting from a Unix session (remote telnet sessions inclusive).
This happens only when creating wrapped/unwrapped packages, source code of which is greater than 500 kb approx.
Can somebody help me resolve this issue. Any Help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards.
Lakshmanan, K

Update: I had unintentionally left my custom tablespace in READONLY state after an earlier experiment with transportable tablespaces. After putting the tablespace back into READ WRITE mode and creating a new template, I was successfully able to create a new db from the template.
I'm still a little curious why this procedure wouldn't work properly with a READONLY tablespace, however.

I am having a problem where pdf files on the web (i.e., links in a Word doc) open after an extended time and only as gobbldygook ( a file containing a series of characters and letters that make no sense). This also happens for another Mac user coworker

Hi There: I am having a problem where pdf files on the web (i.e., links in a Word doc) open after an extended time and only as gobbldygook ( a file containing a series of characters and letters that make no sense). This also happens for another Mac user coworker in my office, while the PCs don't have this problem... Any help/suggestions for a fix would be most appreciated!

Just adding more info - MacBookPro running 10.5.8 and using Safari as the browser. The problem comes and goes - sometimes the linked Word files will open OK, n others its just a strring of crazy characters...

Smart playlists that grab a random selection make zero sense.

Because the random selection only ever happens ONCE making it utterly useless.
For example: I have created a smart playlist that grabs 1 hour's worth or randomly selected 3 - 5 star rated tracks from my music library. But it NEVER re-randomises! This makes no sense.
Also: this forum remains very broken (it is impossible to login using another Apple ID once logged into another ID) and the Bold, Italic and Underline buttons don't work (I'm using Camino Version 1.6b3pre (1.8.1.12pre 2008012000) ).

Yeah, I've been to Doug's scripts before - great site.
As for just hitting the spacebar - no help when I want a falling asleep playlist. I don't want to wake up hours later to discover iTunes still playing in the middle of the night. Thanks anyway
You know - I do not properly comprehend the thinking behind having random selection mean random ONCE, then the same FOREVER

'ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure' error while calling procedure from VC++

hi all,
i am writing stored procedures and calling these from vc++. I have one stored procedure in that all
in and out perameters are numeric. When i am calling these procedure i am able to get the values properly. But in another procedure one in perameter is varchar and one out perameter is varchar. When i am calling these procedure from vc++ the error i am getting is "ORA-12571: TNS:packet writer failure". I test my vc++ code on different computers but its giving the same errors. I think ora-12571 error is when i can't communicate with oracle. But other stored procedures(in and out perameters are numbers) and sql statements are running properly. Only these stored procedure which has in and out perameters as varchar is giving me the above said problem. My out perameter in this procedure strtax is of type varchar and the length 100. Is it the problem. Please suggest me how to over come this problem.
thanks in advance,

Hi
We recently changed our load balancer to a new load balancer. we get this error only after the load balancer change.
When the error occurs, I could see ORA-12571 error message only in the application error log. The listener.log has only the following message about TNS 12502. It does not have any message about ORA -12571.

How does this make any sense??

My husband gets the three bureao FICO subscription....this is on his credit report under "negative factors" HOW does this make ANY sense?!? It has "too many credit accounts with balances" as a negative factor...he has one credit card.... You have too many credit accounts with balances.EquifaxThe FICO® Score considers the number of accounts on a credit report showing a balance.Generally speaking, carrying fewer accounts with balances is considered less risky.For credit cards , your credit report may still show a balance on those cards - even if they are paid off in full each month. The total balance on the last statement is generally the amount that is shown on a credit report. NUMBER OF YOUR ACCOUNTS CARRYING A BALANCE Equifax1 accountFICO High Achievers have an average of 3 credit accounts carrying a balance.

I think they're trying to say that he doesn't have enough accounts and with only one reporting (with a balance of course), that's their common answer.

It doesn't make any sense (trouble adding new songs/podcasts)

Hi all
When I add new songs to my Ipod shuffle, some will play, some won't. When I try to add some podcasts, I can't add them directly by dragging and dropping, so I had to create a new playlist where I can add some new podcasts. And some will play, and some won't.
By the way, I can't see a whole list of files "inside" the ipod. Instead, I see them in two separated screens.
OS: Windows XP
All podcasts and songs are ok, they can be listened to when played on iTunes
Already changed options for podcasts, so they will play when playing in random order.
iPod shows up in iTunes when pluged in
Used apple stuff for some time now.
I used a ipod shuffle 2nd gen for some time and no problem at all...
thanks in advance.
This whole things it has been doing my head in for the last two days...
PS: And sometimes it only plays podcasts. And sometimes only music and no trace of podcasts. As I said... it doesn't make any sense...
Message was edited by: MGLVGLM
PS 2nd: Tried again, now with two podcasts (ok to play random) and one song. Only can listed to the song. No idea why it doesn't play the podcasts.
Help anyone?
Thanks again
Message was edited by: MGLVGLM

well, it seems that I have found the solution (i read somewhere, not already checked)
Since ipod shuffle 3G, you have to add podcasts to a playing list, otherwise you can't listen to them.
If I get it solved, I will write here for the next who doesn't receive much help from Apple and has to google the solution.

How do I get my old Foxfire layout back, because I can not find any where to click that makes any sense. Really bad design, none functional with out some very indepth information to mmove me through it. Very bad design.

I have Vista for an OS, I was running Foxfire 3.4 when it started to freeze after opening the internet the first time and forced me to open the internet again to have function. The first one could not be interacted with at all, not even to close it.
I loaded Foxfire 4 and now can not even understand the layout. Nothing makes any sense at all. Where are all the normal features? Where do my open in new tab s go and how the hell do I get to them? I am too frustrated to even accept the new interface. I want the old interface back.

There's a couple of ways to get through to the authorisation controls in the 11.0.x versions.
The control is still in the Store menu, but first (if you're using iTunes versions 11.0.x) you might need to bring up the menu bar to see the Store menu.
If you're using 11.0.x, click on the wee boxy icon up in the top-left corner of your iTunes to see the "Show Menu Bar" control, as per the following screenshot:
Then you'll find the control in the Store menu:
Alternatively, if you don't want to bring up the menu bar, it's still possible to get into the authorise controls via nested menus accessible from the wee boxy icon. Here's a screenshot of where to find them:

Will it make any sense to create materialized view on top of a MOLAP cube?

Hi,
We have developed few MOLAP cubes for our reporting environment.
Now we are planning to create materialized with query rewrite enabled for faster performance?
Is this a correct approach? Will it make any sense? I mean will i get any performance improvement if i create MV on top of a MOLAP cube?
Thanks and Regards,
Padmanabh

Adding a rewrite MV does not change the raw performance of a cube. The only reason to add one is if you want to write your SQL queries against the base relational tables and have the database rewrite your queries against the cube. If you are able to query the cube views directly, then there is no particular benefit to a rewrite MV.
Adding a refresh-only MV does have benefits even if your queries use the cube views. A refresh-only MV tracks the staleness of the cube and lets you run 'fast' refreshes, which can be useful if you are only modifiying a handful of rows in your fact table.

I am trying to install ArchLinux on my Sun VirtualBox but when I hit the packages installation I get the following error when I hit enter:

I am sure I got the "base" selected.

I just had this. It is almost certainly that you didn't actually poll the network for a DHCP server. Hope you got running. hopefully this will be of use to someone.
So: during the initial stages you get a choice to setup network. You have to choose the eth0 or wireless AND do the DHCP server thing. Or it will fail at the package stage.
I have the same problem trying a net install... and like you say I DO choose eth0 and then I DO DHCP and it says network is configured and eth0 is up... but after that it gives me the problem anyway... so no1 has fixed this? : (
