ORA -18808;Cannot find OUTLN schema using Database Link

Hi,
I have to access a database using a database link. When I try to do so I get the message:
ORA -18808:cannot find OUTLN schema
The OUTLN schema really does'nt exist at the target database, but I don't get the message when connecting with the same user outside the database link.
I am trying to avoid to ask them to recreate the schema, since I am the only one that needs the database link working.
Is there any way I can access the database with the database link without messing with the target database?
Thanks in advance for any help.

The error number returned by that error does not seem to be correct. Below is the correct error number:
ORA-18008 cannot find OUTLN schema
Cause: The database creation script that creates this schema must not have been executed.
Action: Review the log files to see what happened when the database was created.
How is the DB link defined to connect as?

Hello --
My oracle item type monitor display (java applet) went offline today and this is what is happening when using the oracle home page to view the processes:
I can see all the non-completed processes for the item type is the process list
When I click on the process name the, the process summary is displayed
When I click on the view Diagram button, the applet does not initiate
The error from the java console is below.
Has anyone seen this before and know how to fix it; I tried reloading the workflow into the database and the results are the same. I would really appreciate any help offered.

Cannot find info on using random play and regular play symbols

cannot find info on using random play and regular play symbols

Guess I need to clarify my question.
I am using iTunes for Mac. At the top of the window, below the title of the song are two symbols which I am assuming are (on the left) for sequential play and (on the right) for shuffle. Below, next to the name of my playlist is also a symbol for shuffle. I cannot figure out how these relate and how to change the selection. At the moment the shuffle symbol in the song title window is blue and the "sequential" symbol at the other end of the play bar is gray. It is shuffliing thru the play list.
Why is there no explanation available for the use of the icons and features on the screen?

TNS-12666 error occures when using database link

When I am trying to use database link
defined in my database the following error occures:
TNS-12666 Dedicated server: outbound transport protocol different from inbound.
In documentation is stated to resolve such an error to
specify the same protocol in the SQL*Net connect string or alias for the outbound connection as that used for the inbound connection.
I have in tnsnames.ora defined network service name
by which I can connect to such a database by SQL*Plus
without any problems, why can I not do such a thing
via database link?
Thanks a lot for advise, ...

Could you change the following entry in your 'sqlnet.ora' file and try?

How to Execute a Remote Procedure in Portal using Database Link

Hi,
I followed the instructions to create a Portal form for a remote procedure. But I am encountering the following error. Can someone advise what may be the cause?
Failed to execute - Missing string(create_package_body) language(us) domain (wwv) sub_domain (wwv_builder) (WWV-04300)
ORA-04020: deadlock detected while trying to lock object PUBLIC.PORTLET_SCHEMA (WWV-11230)
Failed to parse as PORTAL - (WWV-08300)
PURPOSE
How to execute a remote procedure in Portal using Database Link.
DESCRIPTION
This procedure assumes that you have two databases, one of which is remote, and Portal is configured in the other.
Remote Database A:
==================
1) Create a procedure as follows: Create or Replace PROCEDURE SCOTT.ADD_TWO_VALUES ( v_one IN NUMBER, v_two IN NUMBER, v_result OUT NUMBER) as begin v_result :=v_one+v_two; end; 2) Grant execute privileges to PUBLIC on the procedure.
Database B (where Portal is configured): ========================================
1) Create a public database link and choose to connect as a specific user (say SYSTEM). By default, in an Oracle 8i database, the "global_names" parameter in initSID.ora (or init.ora) file is set to "true". This Global Naming parameter enforces that a dblink has the same name as the database it connects to. Therefore, if the remote global database (A) name is "ora8.acme.com" then the database link should also be named as "ora8.acme.com".
2) Create a synonym for the procedure in Database A. Make sure you fully qualify the procedure name in the remote database (like SCOTT.ADD_TWO_VALUES).
3) Create a dynamic page to execute the procedure. The ORACLE tags in the dynamic page will look similar to the following: <ORACLE> DECLARE v_total NUMBER; BEGIN ADD_TWO_VALUES(:v_one,:v_two, v_total); htp.p('The total is => '); htp.p('<input type="TEXT" VALUE='||v_total||'>'); htp.para; htp.anchor('http://<machine.domain:port#>/pls/portal30/SCOTT.DYN_ADD_TWO_VALUES.show_parms', 'Re-Execute Procedure'); END; </ORACLE>
4) Portal does not have an option to create a form based on a synonym. Therefore, if you want to create a form instead of a dynamic page, create a wrapper procedure and then create a form based on this procedure. For example: Create or Replace PROCEDURE PORTAL30.ADD_TWO_VALUES_PR ( v_one IN NUMBER, v_two IN NUMBER, v_total OUT NUMBER) as begin add_two_values(v_one, v_two, v_total); end;
5) Grant execute privileges to PUBLIC on the procedure.

Adding user to the oracle database using database link - is it possible?

Hi, i wolud like to manage my databases using one client. I easilly operate on my distriubuted tables but i have problem with creating users in distribiuted database. Is it possible to create users in distributed database using database links? or it have to be done locally using some stored procedures or sth similar?

The SQL syntax of the CREATE USER statement doesn't support DB links, the only way to do it would be with stored procedures. There might be an Oracle SP for that or for generic remote execution of SQL, but I'm not familiar with such.

How to use database link in from6i?

I can use database link in sql plus,but i can't use it in forms6i,why? thanks

Don't know why.
What I always do is create a synonym on the local database which points (through the db link) to the object on the other database.

How to find the list of existing tables in a schema using DB link?

Hi
I know how to find the list of existing tables in a schema using the following query
SQL> select * from tab;
but, how to list the tables using a DB link?
For Example
SQL> select * from tab@dblink_name;
why this doesn't work?
Pl advice me
Thanks
Reddy.

ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not foundHave you used this database link successfully for some other queries?
The error posted seems to indicate that the DB Link is not functional at all. Has it worked for any other type of DML operation or is this the first time you ever tried to use the link?

Using database-link in view to get around ORA-01031 error

I have been granted select rights on a users table. I am therefore able to select from his table. If however I try create a view against his table I run into the ORA-01031 problem. I have worked around this problem by creating a database-link to myself and then adding that to the view creation and it works. What are the downsides of using the database-link in this way?

The only down side I have been able to identify is that a extra session is created and that the CPU has a little extra work due to the LOOP BACK that takes place. I need to ensure the network is not unnessesarly used and therefore will need to ensure that 127.0.0.1 (local host) is used in the database connection discription. e.g.
create database link my_db_link connect to scott identified by tiger using '(description=(address=(protocol=tcp)(host=127.0.0.1) (Port = 1521) ) (connect_data= (sid=ora10g)))';

ORA-12154 when using Database Link

We're running 11r2 on our servers. I have a primary db and a standby db, using Data Guard. The standby is open for read-only querying. We are not using ASM.
The primary (and thus the standby) have a PUBLIC database link to a third db server.
When I run a query against the database link on the primary: select * from test@MyDBlink; Everything works fine.
When I run the same query against the database link on the standby: select * from test@MyDBlink; I get ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier.
I check that the db link exists on the standby. It does.
I go to command prompt on the standby and run "tnsping MyDBlink". It executes fine. It says "Used TNSNAMES adapater to resolve the alias" and sure enough, MyDBlink is referenced in the TNSNAMES.ORA.
I also run "tnsping IP-of-MyDBlink" to doublecheck. No issues.
What is going on that is blocking the db link on the standby? Many reports utilize that standby and I'd hate to deny them the functionality of a db link.
Thanks

ThanksMost people with this problem don't understand that the dblink is just another client, no different than sqplus running on the same machine - and therefore the link uses the tnsames in the ORACLE_HOME of the database containing the link. But it seems from the steps you've described that you've grasped that. The only thing I can think of off the top of my head is when you try sqlplus from the standby server you are hitting a different tnsnames than the one the database is using.

ORA-01406 error encountered when using database link

I am moving data between two different databases using a database link on Oracle 8.1.5. The database statement looks like:
insert into TABLE@DATABASELINK
(COLUMNS)
select (COLUMNS) from TABLE
One of the database columns is defined as varchar2(4000) on both the source and target database tables. When the data in this column on the source database is greater than 2000 characters, the database query generates the message:
ORA-01406: fetched column value was truncated
I have verified that the target column is defined as varchar2(4000), and have also verified that it is this varchar2(4000) column that is causing the problem. I have also tested out that this error only occurs when the varchar field is more than 2000 characters; if I remove characters so that the source field is less than or equal to 2000 characters, this error is no longer generated and the data is inserted to the target database table.
Is this a limit with database links or some other database parameter that is not set up correctly?
Thanks...Theresa Tucci
