ORA-15000 when Connect to ASM with ASMSNMP

With ASM of 11g2 on Redhat 5, I tried to connect the instance with ASMSNMP but failed[grid@cchordrdb admin]$ sqlplus / as sysasm
SQL> conn asmsnmp/asmsnmp@ASM
ERROR:
ORA-15000: command disallowed by current instance typeIs this a problme or normai?

Normal/expected,
You have 2 options. Or via OS autentication (I guess in your case login as grid user and sqlplus / as sysasm) or via password file (connect usu/pwd@inst as sysasm).

ORA-19007 when coping a table with an xml type in it to a new schema in the

ORA-19007 when coping a table with an xml type in it to a new schema in the same database.
Hi all,
When I copy a table with an xml type in it to a new schema in the same database I get an ora-19009.
The setup is as follows I have a schema a with table TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE where data is:

when I try to do the following insert:
insert into schemaB.TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE ( FOLDER_ID, SEARCH_PROPERTIES)
select FOLDER_ID, SEARCH_PROPERTIES from schemaB.TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE;
I’ll get an ora-19007.
Can some one point me in the right direction how to solve this error.
Thanks Roelof.

Who did you create the second table, in other words, how did you COPY the table as you said...
If you created the second table via a CTAS (create table as select) then you will have created a table that is not the same as the original one. AFAIK I have once created an enhancement request for this after discovering that JDeveloper, for example, creates a "copy" via a CTAS which creates the wrong structure. Double check via package DBMS_METADATA.
SQL> set long 1000000
SQL> select DBMS_METADATA('TABLE','TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE','SchemaA') from dual;
SQL> select DBMS_METADATA('TABLE','TABLE_WITH_XMLTYPE','SchemaB') from dual;If you have got two different tables, than Mark's solution should help.

Re: Not getting audio from TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all correct cables.

How do I get audio from the TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all the correct cables?

Hi Lynn,
If you're positive you have the correct cables, and positive they work, they must be plugged into an input on the TV made for that purpose, then that input must be selected on the TV's menu.

ORA-12546 When connecting without specifying sid in connect string

I am currently having a difficult time connecting to an Oracle 9.2.0.4 database running on Red Hat Linux.
I can successfully connect to this database with sqlplus as oracle whether a sid name is included in the connect string or not. I can also successfully connect to the instance through jdbc with jsp pages. However when I try to connect as root without specifying the sid I get an ORA-12546 TNS: Permission denied. I also receive this error when attempting to connect to the instance through php scripts. Note that root can connect through sqlplus with no problem as long as the sid is included in the connect string. Also note that the oracle user can connect either way.
I turned on tracing and found that this error is occurring before it even gets to the listener as no log or trace entries are generated when the error occurs.
Does anyone have any ideas?

did you set the parameter TWO_TASK ?

Error ora-12638 when connect

thanks

Which OS are you using? are you using the base version 8.1.6? Try upgrading to 8.1.6.3.1 on both the server and clients. or try setting
sqlnet.authentication_services=(none)
in your sqlnet.ora file.

Possible to select self-signed certificate for client validation when connecting to VPN with EAP-TLS

In windows 8.2, I have a VPN connection configured with PPTP as the outer protocol and EAP : "Smart card or other certificate ..." as the inner protocol. Under properties, in the "When connecting" section I've selected "Use a certificate
on this computer" and un-checked "Use simple certificate selection".
My preference would be to use separate self-signed certificates for all clients rather than having a common root certificate that signed all of the individual client certificates. I've tried creating the self-signed certificate both with and without the
client authentication EKU specified, and I've added the certificate to the trusted root certificate authority store on the client. But when I attempt to connect to the VPN I can not get the self signed certificate to appear on the "Choose a certificate"
drop down.
Are self signed certificates supported for this use in EAP-TLS? If it makes a difference, I'm working with makecert (not working with a certificate server).
TIA,
-Rick

Hi Rick,
Thank you for your patience.
According to your description, would you please let me know what command you were using to make a self-signed certificate by tool makecert? I would like to try to reproduce this issue. Also based on my experience, please let me
know if the certificate has private key associated and be present in the local machine store. Hence, please move the certificate from the trusted root certificate authority store to personal store.
Best regards,
Steven Song

does any one have any ideas where i maybe going wrong?

I cannot print to my photosmart 7510 when connected to work with VPN

When I try to print to my printer while connected to VPN, I get an error that the software could not communicate with my printer. The IT department where I work has configured the VPN so that traffic to my local LAN is allowed (does not go through the tunnel). I had no problem printing to my old printer when connected with VPN (old printer was a photosmart 2510 connected via wireless network).
These symptoms lead me to believe that the printer software is attempting to connect to the internet when I send a print job to my local printer. Why is it doing that? What settings do I need to change to make it stop so that I can print while connected with VPN?

But I don't understand why the internet connection that my printer has comes into play when I'm sending a print job from my PC to my printer over my local network. I am not using the web services at all for that particular function.
At least I shouldn't be - I don't know what the HP print software installed on my PC is doing under the hood. The software shouldn't have to access the internet to send a print job locally. Nor should my printer have to access the internet in order to receive the print job from my PC.
What exactly is the printer or the print software accessing the internet for when I send a print job from my PC to my printer over my local network?

Edited by: Lisa Yanti on Feb 14, 2008 9:35 AM

I was resolve this error by my self.
We can handle this error with registering our current IP and host name on /etc/hosts.
example:
content of /etc/hosts:
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 myhost.workgroup
The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters
ff02::3 ip6-allhosts
added the ip and host name to be like this configuration
127.0.0.1 localhost
127.0.1.1 myhost.workgroup
172.20.17.74 myhost
The following lines are desirable for IPv6 capable hosts
::1 ip6-localhost ip6-loopback
fe00::0 ip6-localnet
ff00::0 ip6-mcastprefix
ff02::1 ip6-allnodes
ff02::2 ip6-allrouters

ORA-12699: error when connecting to server with FIPS enabled

Hi all,
I have a oracle client and server with FIPS enabled on them. When I use SQL Developer from the client, I can connect to the server and run queries on them.
I have an ADO based application, which I am trying to run on the client to query the oracle server, but the open database call seems to fail on this with the ORA-12699 error ..
Heres the connection string I am using ... "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=Test;User Id=scott;Password=tiger;"
Are there any other options to be added to the connection string string ?? any ideas / comments would be of great help ...
Note : I am using Oracle 11G ..
--sachi

Naveen,
Forms 5.0 is not certified and not tested with Oracle DB 10g because it was desupported before 10g got released.
The other problem is hard to give a generic answer for and I suggest to address this to metalink.oracle.com

ORA-06502 When using MAX(Column) with %TYPE

Hi Guys,
Just had this discussion on the main database forums, and the problem was somewhat resolved. But they did ask me to check here if this was a known issue.
Assuming I have a table defined as follows
CREATE TABLE TEST_TABLE (TEST_COLUMN CHAR(8 BYTE)) ;and the table only has a single record NZ07100S
We also define a function as
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT MAX(TEST_COLUMN) INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;We ran the following command
SELECT GETTESTVALUE FROM DUAL;and receive an error as follows
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small
ORA-06512: at "GETTESTVALUE", line 6
06502. 00000 - "PL/SQL: numeric or value error%s"However, if were to modify the function to the following
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT TEST_COLUMN INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;There is no error reported and the value NZ07100S is returned.
Of course, when we modified the function to be
CREATE OR REPLACE FUNCTION
FUNCTION GETTESTVALUE
RETURN TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE
IS
TEST_VALUE TEST_TABLE.TEST_COLUMN%TYPE;
BEGIN
SELECT CAST(MAX(TEST_COLUMN) AS CHAR(8))INTO TEST_VALUE FROM TEST_TABLE;
RETURN TEST_VALUE;
END;No errors are reported, and the value is returned
Some of the guys in the main forums tried this out on Enterprise edition and did not encounter any issues. To faciliate their testing, I spooled the sqlsplus output and it is as follows

Hi Jega,
thank you for your post.
Don't know is this issue XE release specific issue or 10.2.0.1 generally?
