Oracle 11g EM configuration problem

It seems a "bug" to me:
Windows 2003 R2 64-bit with all up-to-date patches
64-bit Oracle 11.1.0.7 for Windows 2003 R2 64-bit
The machine has only one HD right now and it is assigned to H, the DVD drive is assigned to D
Installed Oracle 11g, everything is fine, didn't configure the EM during installation.
After installation, manually configure the EM:
H:>emca -repos create
H:>emca -config dbcontrol db
all seems fine, but at the end of the second command, 2 perl.exe instances started. One of them never stops. It just eating up all the RAM (from 1.3GB --> 4GB and still increasing) and CPU (100% all the time).
The solution: plug-in a USB drive, which will be assigned to be C drive. Then the perl.exe calms down immediately, released most of the memory and CPU used.
But the perl.exe can resume this behavior maybe every one or two days. So, to calm it down, I have to keep the USB drive plugged.

Never heard about this,report the issue to Oracle support (you have a patched version,so I think you can open a SR on metalink). It may be that there's a 'hard-coded' reference to drive C somewhere in the code.

  • Oracle 11g Database Configuration Assistant Hangs At 45% During 1st Install

    Platform: Windows Vista 64 Bit Version
    Downloaded: Oracle 11g Database 64 Bit
    Service Pack 1
    Greetings to all my Oracle Seniors. I have been attempting in vain to install the Oracle 11g database software package fully. I was able to complete the initial installation and made it to the second recommended action which was the Database Configuration Assistant operation. After 3 attempts, the progress bar stalled at 45%. I tried to look at the log file cfgtoologs (cloneDBCreation, and CloneRmanRestore), but it said that I didn't have permission. My pre-check cleared OK on everything. So, please direct me as to how to correct this issue.
    Thanks

    Well, that is not much of an option right now. I discovered that I have to reinstall the XP Pro OS after attempting the 11g installation 4 times and the install always stalled at 69% during the initial installation. I did have Windows Service Pack 3 installed on the system. I down graded and added 1 G of additional memory and checked the pre-check with no problem. But, the install continued to stall at 69%. So, and, yet, here we are.
    Now in regards to the metalink notes, I am new to the forum, so I don't know my way around quite yet. Isn't the metalink the paid suppport option? If so, I don't have that access.

  • Oracle 11g - Network Configuration check

    Hi All,
    This is my first time here and I am a newbie to Linux and Oracle installation.
    I just finished installing Linux Enterprise version 5 ( provided by Oracle corp).
    At the time of installation I did not do any type of network configuration and let the default network connection take effect.
    After installing all the pre requirements for the Oracle 11g installation on my laptop I was stopped with a warning on the Oracle univesal Installer - product specific Prerequisite check.
    This is what it gave me---
    Checking Network Configuration requirements..
    Check complete. The overall results of this check is : Not executed <<<
    Recomendation : Oracle supports installation on systems with DHCP-assigned public IP addresses. However the primary network interface on the system should be configured with a Static IP Address in order for the oracle to function properly.See the installation guide for more details on installing the software on systems configured with DHCP.
    I checked with the manuals and do not find any information about how to fix it.
    The info given in the manual is
    Installing on DHCP Computers
    Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) assigns dynamic IP addresses on a network. Dynamic addressing enables a computer to have a different IP address each time it connects to the network. In some cases, the IP address can change while the computer is still connected. You can have a mixture of static and dynamic IP addressing in a DHCP system.
    In a DHCP setup, the software tracks IP addresses, which simplifies network administration. This lets you add a new computer to the network without having to manually assign that computer a unique IP address.
    Now i made some changes to the Network Config as root user and my Network configuration file looks like ( ie. /etc/hosts)
    127.0.0.1 localhost StaticIP
    It was previously something like
    127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain localhost.
    As per the installation documents where ever i had references to localhost, i had left the localhost with the same name ' localhost' and have not changed it. Now it has StaticIP and I am not sure how to proceed.
    What must I do?
    I want to fix this error and also want oracle to work.
    Thanks for your help!!

    Thanks a lot guys to respond to this. I am using OEL5 ( supplied by Oracle Corp) and Oracle 11g. Installation of Linux takes about 40 minutes and installation of Oracle takes about an hour to 2 hours. Not sure why some RPM's do not show up on the CD's provided by Oracle.
    So I tried to reinstall Linux . But the whole problem is, the Network Screens ( during installation) do not show up at all. It just skips that portion and goes to the Screen where there is the world Map and tells you to set up the time and date. I tried installing Linux many times and those Network configuration screens do not show up at all.
    Here is my dilemma. After installing Oracle 11g, and immediately accessing the site https://localhost.localdomain:1158/em takes me into the OEM.
    But after I shut down my machine and boot up again, I am unable to use the OEM's site https://localhost.localdomain:1158/em. Instead I get the message
    ===============================
    Unable to Connect
    Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at localhost.localdomain:1158
    1. The site could be temporaily unavailable
    2. If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection
    3. If your computer is protected by firewall or proxy, make sure that firefox is permitted to access the Web.
    ===================================
    I am thinking the problem is with 2. I do not have any firewall in my machine and i have also disbaled SELINUX.
    I want to configure the computer so i can use the OEM in my Linux laptop.
    My $ cat /etc/hosts gives
    127.0.0.1 localhost.localdomain.
    Please help me setup the Network so i can connect to 11g OEM.
    And BTW this laptop is not even used to connect to the Internet.
    Thanks

  • Oracle 11g R2 install problem on Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1

    Hi all,
    Trying to install the Oracle 11g R2 database onto Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.
    I get as far as running the setup and a black window flashes up on the screen and disappears.
    The log files only show the following:

    Any help in troubleshooting further is appreciated.

    That is the complete log file. No error messages or further information is given.
    I'm not sure how to check:

    Hi All,
    I have Oracle 11g Server installed on my Linux box.
    I want to use Oracle client 11g on my windowsXP access to the Server that on my linux box.
    when i go to "Oracle-oraClient11g_home1","Configuration and Migration Tools", "Administration Assistant for Windows". I couldn't find the server that i want to add.

    My windowXp is joined to the domain (ex. zzz domain).
    Anyone who know and can help me about this, it will great.
    Thanks to forum.
    Marin

    1. On your Oracle client side, you don't need listener.ora file
    2. If you want to configure TNS Names on client, you run "Net Configuration Assistant" not "Administration Assistant for Windows"
    3. You will not see a server drop down list like SQL Server did. No matter your join the domain or not. You need to enter the server hostname, port and Service name manually.

  • Oracle 11g client Update Problem

    Hi ,
    I have problem with oracle 11g client, I have a treatment that is has selected information and update after the last treatment.The problem is that the update is sometimes the enssemble fields, even those I do not want to update.
    I use the 11g client with c #, my procedure is like update WHERE num = @ aram.I have doubts about the problems of loss of connection, because it give me the log: host not found, but there is a transaction, and in case of emergency I did a rollback.is there anyone who approaches to this problem??I took you to kindly help me, because the project and in production mode

    Apart from the fact that this has nothing to do with Oracle Forms the certifications and the version checks of the installer are there for a reason. Copying one version file doesn't make your RHEL6 a RHEL3. RHEL6 most certainly uses a different kernel, different libraries, different everything then RHEL3 (yes, Software Vendors change version numbers of their products not just for fun!). You might get lucky (using your friend google) that you get it working with some effort, but this doesn't guarantee that everything works and given the fact that this is not certified getting help is not that easy. Better yet is to save yourself the time and stick with certified combinations (maybe use OEL insted of RHEL?)

  • Oracle 11g Database Schema problem

    Hi I have installed the Enterprise Edition of Oracle 11g on windows XP SP2. I log in to Enterprise Manager. When I click on the schema tab I get the following error message.
    Error
    Internal Error has occured. Check the log file for details.
    Does anybody know why ? and which log file they are refering to?
    Also can someone tell me where or how you can create normal users ?
    thanks

    the related OC4J machine is failing, it could be due to a number of reasons. Sometimes it has to do with the TZ region Agent recognizes, but the only way to know it for sure is by taking a look at the operational log files. Those can be found at the EM Console directory under the ORACLE_HOME. You will see the ORACLE_HOME/EMConsoleDirectory/log at the log there are several files, take a look at them and feedback.

    # This command is being run on Standby for starting Automatic Managed

    SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE DISCONNECT FROM SESSION;
    Then we used to tail the Alert logs of both Primary and Standby, and the logs got transferred at the physical location of the Archive logs in Standby db.
    Then one day due to some problem with the pfile, I shutdown the Standby db with the Primary up and running as usual using the following command-
    SQL> ALTER DATABASE RECOVER MANAGED STANDBY DATABASE CANCEL IMMEDIATE;
    The Result was as expected - Primary Archive logs got accumulated and the same couldn't be transferred to Standby as the Standby was down.
    I had to manually recover the Standby by copying the extra Archive log files from Primary to Standby and then running the Recovery Process manually, using the below command -
    SQL> RECOVER AUTOMATIC STANDBY DATABASE
    Then when I restarted the Automatic Recovery process on Standby, I received the error as below -
    ORA-16009 - Remote archive log destination must be a STANDBY database
    This error keeps appearing on the alert log of both primary and physical standby that i configured.
    I have no clue as to where it went wrong.
    Kindly help!

    Hello,
    What sort of access? And ssh is working? putty? Using VM NAT, or bridged?
    Yes, from my desktop windows to the VM's eth0 interface I could use SSH without any concerns. Yes, I've used PuTTY Client for SSH. For VM is bridged.
    That's not relevant to accessing the VM, you'll need to open up ports in the VM host firewall. Port 8080 too if you want to access the Apex pages, along with opening port 1521 for the database listener.
    Yes, you are right - had to stop firewall on my VM box... since this is a dummy sandbox I just stopped firewall
    service iptables stop
    chkconfig iptables off
    After that SQL Developer Studio managed to open connection to the XE database on this VM box over the network. Thank you!
    You've got all the listener endpoints, including the http 8080 but setting up a server on dhcp isn't optimal unless you have dynamic DNS to register the VM IP for name resolution. Unless a dos box $ ping oracle11xe or $ ping oracle11xe.localdomain from the Win box gets the correct IP address of the VM ...
    Sorry I didn't get this one... Could you please give me more information.
    I've configured VM(oracle11xe.localdomain) to use static IP address(NO DHCP, I'd like to avoid involving the DHCP Server in my network in this simple test). This leads to me being able to ping it from Win Box only via IP address, what problems may show up from this? My idea was to avoid having problems, if for example I started the VM box in very different environment(lets say another network) and it gets some other IP address, because I didn't knew how oracle XE will feel about the new IP?
    Once again - Thank you. Original issue is solved!

  • Oracle 11g XE Connectivity Problems

    Hi to all and thanks for the attention !
    Quick facts
    OS : Microsoft Server 2008 R2 (x64)
    Oracle Version : 11g XE (x32)
    Database name : XE
    I've been fighting over with providers for a whole day and I can't seem to make this work out,
    I have an application(Web, on a IIS 7) that connects to a schema, the connection uses a Oracle Provider For OleDB, well at first I was getting a "Provider not registered" error, that was easy I only had to make the app run on x32 and puf the error changed, so I quickly set up the Data Source ( with the data source manager located in WOW64 ) with a oracle ole db provider, no problems, I can click on it, it will ask me for a user/password and when I click test connection I works just like I would expect it to work, now back to the application, when i set the connection string up, I get a error from the app : ORA-12154 TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified. So went up and tried making a udl ( invoking again the x32 ), same error ORA-12154 so I started digging and so far so good what I got is, "try tnsping <instance_Name>", did it, and got an OK (40ms) (though I had to navigate to bin folder, which was not explained in the posts, perhaps this means something ?) and also registered the oraoledb11.dll with regsvr32
    Oh ! And I can connect to the database with sqldeveloper
    I know really little of Oracle, any thoughts ?
    Thanks again !

    ORA-12154 ALWAYS only occurs on SQL Client & no SQL*Net packets ever leave client system
    ORA-12154 NEVER involves the listener, the database itself or anything on the DB Server.
    ORA-12154 occurs when client requests a connection to some DB server system using some connection string.
    TNS-03505 is thrown by tnsping & is same error as ORA-12154 thrown by sqlplus or others.
    The lookup operation fails because the name provided can NOT be resolved to any remote DB.
    The analogous operation would be when you wanted to call somebody, but could not find their name in any phonebook.
    The most frequent cause for the ORA-12154 error is when the connection alias can not be found in tnsnames.ora.
    The lookup operation of the alias can be impacted by the contents of the sqlnet.ora file; specifically DOMAIN entry.
    So post the content of the sqlnet.ora file.

  • Oracle JDBC Pool Configuration problems

    Hi all,
    I'm usin oracle 8.1.6 & thin driver (classes12.zip).
    I've set up correctly a pool in a wl 6.1 windows 2K machine.
    I've copied EXACTLY the configuration values in a wl 6.1 solaris 7 machine and
    doesn't works (it seems wl can't find the listener).
    My cuestions;
    -Why the wl console adds automatically the propertie dll=ocijdbc8 when i'm configuration
    the pool? I don´t want to use the OCI driver!
    -Can this be the problem?
    -Should I place classes12.zip first on the classpath than weblogic.jar?
    TIA.
    Pablo.

    Hi. The issue isn't the zip, it's probably the properties you supply for the pool.
    The oracle driver will try to use the type-2 native libraries if you specify
    a server in the properties.

  • Oracle 11G - Table access problem

    Hi,
    Iam new to Oracle...After creating a DataBase I created a connection and role has SYSDBA...
    And then I create a table....called Table1. And then I create a new USER and I Connect with same Databse SID but the role has DEFAULT for this new USER....
    01. But the problem is I cannot find the table -Table1 for this new user...so how to acess that Table1.....?
    02. I came to know in Oracle also we can design Forms for frontend and can generate EXE....Is it true?
    03. In SQL Server -Sql Port with static IP- we can access the Database for remote users.... For Oracle is it possible?
    Thanks for the directions....

    And then I create a table....called Table1. And then I create a new USER and I Connect with same Databse SID but the role has DEFAULT for this new USER....So I'm guessing that you created the table in the SYS schema. You should never, ever create user objects in the SYS schema. If you created the table in the SYS schema, you really need to drop it and create it in a more appropriate schema.
    You indicate that you're coming from SQL Server, so there is perhaps a terminology issue. What SQL Server refers to as a "database" is roughly equivalent to what Oracle refers to as a "schema". An Oracle database contains many schemas. A schema is the set of objects owned by a particular user.
    01. But the problem is I cannot find the table -Table1 for this new user...so how to acess that Table1.....?As I said above, you really, really shouldn't create objects in the SYS schema. If you really want to, though, you would need to log in to the SYS schema and grant access on the table to your new user
    GRANT SELECT ON sys.table1 TO your_new_userYou would then need to fully qualify the table name in your SELECT (or create a synonym or set the current_schema)
    SELECT *
      FROM sys.table1
    02. I came to know in Oracle also we can design Forms for frontend and can generate EXE....Is it true? Ancient versions of Oracle Forms would create client/server executables. Modern versions are used to build three-tier applications. You can also use APEX to build web-based applications. Of course, you can also generate executables by writing code in some other language (often .Net).
    03. In SQL Server -Sql Port with static IP- we can access the Database for remote users.... For Oracle is it possible?Is it possible? Sure. Depending on what "remote users" means though, it may be rather ill-advised-- you'd never want to open up a database to the internet directly, for example, you'd want to ensure that the remote users are connected to your network (i.e. via a VPN).
