Oracle 8i Lite - Palm sync

Hello,
Does anybody has successfully run a HotSync synchronization between an Oracle lite 8i on a Palm and an Oracle 8i EE?
The Hotsync process always gives errors in my environment.
----- (from the hotsync log)
OK Memo Pad
Unable to initialize threads: Tzan (this text is scrambled)
Cab't create Java VM
OK Oracle with 2 message(s)
I have:
- Palm III, with PalmOS 3.0.3
- PalmDesktop 3.0.1
- Oracle 8i EE on Win2k
Any idea?
thanks
zlatko

Perhaps you can explain to me how you get the SAMPLE application to work. I deleted the C$ALL_APPS file from my Palm and the OrdersODB file which it generates when you click the okDemo application on the Palm.
Now, when I connect with Consolidator using Hotsync I get this error message:
HotSync operation started 01/16/00 15:59:44

I created the database connection in Oracle8 Navigator and connected to it successfully with user name S11U1 and password MANAGER.
So, what's going on? I have my username/password correct don't I?
I get an error log on the Oracle Consolidator Log of:
[CNS-1004]:100
[CNS-1004]:-511
How do I solve this?

As to permissions, you need to do that on
the SERVER database.
Using SQL*Plus, you would connect to the server
database using the username for the tables
and then use GRANT ALTER...
Using Oracle Navigator, click on the Database
Connections folder, and then create a
connection to the database. After creating
the connection, connect to the database. Find
the table, right-click on the table and
select properties from the menu. On the
properties dialog, click the Object Privileges

Hi Alvin
I had a lot of Problems too.
It seemed to work more and more, but every time i got a problem fixed another one arised.
Now it works (nearly everything):
Install JDK 1.1.8 first (not runtime).

Oracle 9i Lite SYNC Error in PALM

Hi,
I have Installed Oracle 8.1.6 Server in a Machine & Oracle 9i Lite 5.0 in a Machine, when i try ro connect & SYNC with my PALM Device OS 3.5 i get a [CNS-2000] Server send Error - 9025:0
Message, check log in the PALM device using mSYNC.
I have installed the Patchset 5.0.0.4 and have done all the settings related to the configuration.
Kindly help as it is very urgent to establish the connection SYC between the PALM & the Oracle.
Thaks & Regards,
Viswanathan

If this is happening on the upload of the data from the client, it is normally due to a mismatch between the DDL of the publication item and the corresponding in queue table (CFM$WTGPI_nnnnn).
Have you made changes on the server to the table/view definitions?
If so then have you re-published? If there is data in the in queue or error queue it will sometimes not refresh the mobileadmin tables with the changed columns/data types, although if you use API's i believe you may be ok. If there is no mismatch on the server, what about the format of the table on the client? it may be trying to upload some changes

Oracle 9i Lite and Satellite Forms on the Palm

I would like to use Oracle 9i Lite 5.0.1with Satellite Forms EE 4.1 on the Palm
The docmentation from each company refers to the other company's documentation and no instructions seem to
exist. I am begining to suspect that to abilty to use Satellite Forms and Oracle Lite on the Palm does not actually
exist and that one must develop applications in C using Code Warrior or other tools.
I would like to use a Satellite Forms application on the Palm running with the RDK to access and store tables
stored in an Oracle Lite database on the Palm. I would then use the MSYNC to move data from the palm to
my Oracle 8.1.7 database server
Satellite Forms appears to store each of its tables as a separate pdb but oracle uses a single pdb for a database
containing multiple tables. There is a check box for Oracle compatible tables but not method to associate
satellite forms tables with an Oracle Lite database except for a link to an ODBC database. The Oracle ODBC drivers
point either to the Oracle database server or to an Oracle Lite database on a PC but not on a Palm.
I can move Satelittle Forms tables from the Palm to Oracle 8.1.7 using ODBC on the PC when I do a Palm Hot Sync
using the Satellite Form conduit
I can move Oracle tables from the Palm to 8.1.7 using MSYNC, the Oracle Mobile Server, and the Oracle Lite
http conduit
I do not know how to move Satellite Forms tables on the Palm to Oracle Lite tables on the Palm.
The only way to use Satellite Forms appears to be to move Satellite Forms tables on the Palm to Oracle Lite tables
on the PC and then use Oracle Lite Msync on the PC to move the data to the Oracle server. This seems to have no
advantage over going from Satellite Forms directly to the Oracle Server via ODBC
Does anyone have any additional information about current or future capabilities. There may have been something that
worked with older versions of Oracle 8iLite 4.0 and Satellite Forms 3.5, but I do not see anything that works now

According to Metalink Note:207303.1 - Client / Server / Interoperability Support Between Different Oracle Versions you shouldn't have problems, as long as your 9i Clients are at least 9.2.0.4.

Oracle 8i lite and palm pilots

So has Anyone been able to get Oracle 8i Lite to work with a Palm Pilot? I've been browing through some of the forums on 8i Lite and some form apps like Satellite Forms and it doesn't seem like anyone has had much success.

We haven't tried 8i Lite on a palmtop. But we are trying to use it over the Internet and we are having some problems. Have you used 8i Lite over the Internet?!?
Thanks..

Oracle 8i Lite and Palm, Windows CE and EPOC

This may be a simple question to developers (which I am not), but we have a client who is seeking advice regarding the use of Palm Pilots, Psion or similar devices for field recording of data.
Their database is Oracle 7.3.4 (soon to be upgraded to 8) with development done in Forms 5. I understand that Oracle 8i Lite enables a database of this vintage to be used in conjunction with the handhelds, but I do not understand the process.
Is Oracle 8i Lite loaded onto the handheld? Or is it used to convert the required tables and forms into cut down versions for the limited use by the smaller device?
What is the role of the host PC for the smaller devices?
I guess - how does it work in layman's terms.
I hope someone can help.
Thanks.

Oracle 10g Lite-Sync Error

Hi,
I am Using Oracle 10g"Lite" Database, I am doing manual SYNC Process.
Today I started the manual Sync Process i Got this Error Message in the Screen "POL-3201 Invalid Slot Number"
I referred a document Shows this information
POL-3201 Invalid slot number
Cause: Internal error caused by referencing an object that has been deleted. Each
object in the database, such as a row has a unique object identifier (OID) that
identifies the location of the object in secondary storage. Each database file is
divided into fixed size chunks called disk pages. An OID can become invalid
when the:
■ disk page being referred by the OID does not exist in the database file.
■ physical read or write of the disk page fails due to an operating system related
error.
■ address of the object (as indicated by the internal encoding in the OID) in the
disk page is outside the page.
■ object is not found in the page.
But i did not delete any thing in the Lite database.
Yesterday the Manual SYNC was Successful ...After i did not touch the Lite Database.Today I started the SYNC and i Got the Error.
Did any one face this error?
Please advice on this Error
Thank U for the Useful Information

1.Oracle Server 8.1.5
2.Oracle 8i Lite for handheld device (Palm)
II-The mecanism transport : http
1.I used Web-to-go listener "http.bat"
2.Win NT RAS sevice for TCP/IP
3.iConnect Consolidator Server for replication "mgp.bat"
III-The Palm device
1.Consolidator Client for Palm : "ConsolidatorClient.prc"
2.Satellite Forms application files (*.prc and *.pdb)
3.OracleLauncher file for the HTTP conduit "OracleLauncher.prc"
IV-Schema creation with JAVA API
1.Creation of one master table NAMES with 2 fields and a primary key
constraint on the Oracle 8.1.5 DB server.
2.Creation of Consolidator Objects (Clients,Publications,Publication
Items,Subscription,...) in java file.
3.Execution of a script similar to the one provided by Oracle

Available Now: Oracle Database Lite 10g Release 1

The Oracle Database Lite development team is pleased to announce the availability of Oracle Database Lite 10g (10.0.0.0.0) for Windows 2000/XP, Solaris 2.6, 2.7, 2.8, and Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS/ES 2.1/3.0 platforms.
The Windows release is currently available from OTN at:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/lite/index.html
Oracle Database Lite 10g is a complete and integrated solution for rapid development and deployment of high impact, mission vital applications for mobile and lightweight embedded environments. Oracle Database Lite is an extension to Oracle Database 10g for enterprises wanting to increase productivity, reduce operational costs, and improve customer satisfaction.
Oracle Database Lite uses data synchronization to reliably and securely exchange data between a corporate Oracle Database and mobile workers. Oracle Database Lite also allows companies to deploy and manage users, mobile applications and devices from a remote central location. Oracle Database Lite provides the necessary framework enterprise customers need to extend their enterprise applications and data to the most popular mobile platforms: Palm OS, Linux, Microsoft Windows CE/PPC, and Microsoft Windows NT/2000/XP/UNIX.
The following is a partial list of new features for Oracle Database Lite 10g that will make your mobile deployment easier to manage, use, and develop. A complete list will be available for download/viewing soon.
Device Management
As the number of mobile devices in an enterprise increases, it becomes more important to have complete control of the devices. Oracle Database Lite Device Management is a complete infrastructure to monitor and manage Oracle Database Lite assets such as database files, software libraries, data, and application files on remote devices. Device management decreases the total cost of ownership and protects an enterprises intellectual property.
Single Oracle Lite Binary
The Oracle Database Lite 10g release contains a single set of Oracle Lite database kernel binaries for all languages, removing the necessity of having different binaries for each of the following languages: Korean, Traditional Chinese, simplified Chinese, Japanese, and US/European languages.
Shared Map
The shared map function greatly improves performance by reducing sync processing timeand enhances the scalability of shared publication items. Shared maps allow users to share record state information and reduce the size of the resulting replication map tables.
Offline Instantiation
Offline instantiation enables quick and easy setup of mobile devices for business applications. Mobile administrators are able to prepare, in batch mode, a client package, which includes the mobile client software and initial data for every mobile user. This procedure helps users avoid an expensive online synchronization processes as part of the first time mobile client setup procedure.
Synchronization Manager
The Synchronization Manager is a complete, web-based enterprise management application to manage and monitor synchronization. The Synchronization Manager allows administrators to manage the synchronization service, monitor and analyze sync performance, administer the configuration, trace synchronization history, display and browse synchronization publication and subscription information, and monitor MGP (Message Generator and Processor) performance.
Oracle Application Server Support
The Oracle Database Lite 10g Mobile Server now runs as a web application on Oracle Containers for Java (OC4J) the runtime of Oracle Application Server. If Oracle
Database Lite 10g is deployed in standalone mode, an embedded version of OC4J will be installed and used. Oracle Database Lite may also be installed against an existing instance of Oracle Application Server.
Seamless upgrade from Oracle9 i Lite 5.0.2
The Oracle Database Lite 10g Upgrade Assistant allows customers to easily upgrade from existing Oracle9 i Lite 5.0.2 installations. The Upgrade Assistant automatically converts existing application definitions to the new format, and copies all relevant files to the new installation. As many customers have deployed mission critical systems using Oracle9i Lite technology, the Upgrade Assistant has been designed to minimize system downtime.
Download
Oracle Database Lite 10g (10.0.0.0.0) for Windows can now be downloaded from the following location.

I am using Oracle 10g lite. Do you know if it supports silent installation.

Oracle 8i Lite - OO4O and other Questions

1.) Can OO4O (Oracle Objects for OLE) be used with the Oracle 8i Lite database ?
2.) Does Oracle 8i Lite operate as a "client/server" database ?
3.) Is it possible to have multi-user access to Oracle 8i Lite ?
4.) Is there documentation somewhere that lists all of the limitations with 8i Lite as compared to 8i ?
We are in the planning stages of a partial mobile system, and want to know how much difference in development efforts for the 2 platforms (Oracle 8i on Win 2000 server and Oracle 8i Lite on NT/98/95 Laptops).
Any information on Oracle 8i Lite would be appreciated. -- Especially need an answer to question 1 right now.
Thanks,
Paula

Hi,
I am qouting below from the oracle 8i Lite documentation which says it supports triggers . Please clarify.

Performance Issues on Oracle Database Lite 10.3.0.3

Hello,
we have a big problem with one of our customers. He uses Oracle Database Lite in the standalone version. There are about 600 clients running a project with about 20 Publication Items. The customer works in the logistics field, so the Main time where nearly all clients want to sync and get their tours is from 02 AM to 05 AM, so that is the time with the most traffic.
Everything went well before last week. Suddenly the compose cycle needs (at least between that hours) about ten times longer than before. Normally we had about 40 - 80 seconds, now we have about 300 - 500 average with max values from over 1200 seconds.
Therefore we have a lot of conflicts and Disconnects on the clients. It is sometimes that bad, that nearly no client can sync successfully.
We checked our Selects in the publication Items, all are very fast and look good in the explain plan, so that shouldnt be the problem.
The installation is nearly in the Default state as oracle does when you install Oracle Lite. Are there any standard settings we can change? Does anyone had the same problem already?
The Machine is a Windows Server 2003 with an Intel Xeon CPU E7-4820 and 4 GB of RAM.
Of course our customer gets a lot of trouble because of that and we have to improve and fix that as fast as we can.
Any recommendation or opinions are very welcome.
If I have to give more Info about somewhat please feel free to ask, I will give it as fast as possible.
Thanks in advance
Holger

Hey,
many thanks for your proposals. The MGP runs every minute like the default settings are, because our application is a time sensitive. The data have to be very fast on the clients in the nights and thex are only a few minutes before available. I think the parameters are important in environemnts where the mgps runs only after a few minutes?
Let me summarize the situation since my las post:
We have days (nights) where everything goes quite well. Mainly that is thrusday and friday. But on the other hand, there are days where everything really is a mess.
The mgp caycles increase and when you look to mobile manager you see 70 clients syncing very very slowly (about 300 - 600 seconds) for just a little bit of data. Then we get the disonnects and the messages in the err.log.
What do you think, is this somehow network related, or ist this a logical problem in the Mobile Server itself?
Like postes earlier, there are 500 clients syncing against a standalone mobile server.
We just couldnt figure out, why the mgp times somehow and sometimes increase that much, that there are these problems.
First we thought, that they sync newly over wireless (GPRS or Edge) and that syncing is that slowly, that everything goes down, but arent sure. Is this possible because of the architecture of the Mobile Server? That a very slow network can slow down the mgps and that does timeouts and all the other stuff?
How many clients can a Standalone Mobile Server normally serve at same time without performance problems. What do you thin about the hardware I wrote? Is it powerful enough?

Hi
Your oracle database and forms are installed on different oracle home so when you configurate your sql net that time you are configurating only your oracle database. So for form you must be having different oracle home. you cand change thid from start/oracle inatallation products/home selecter. so change our home and run the form. and if still having problem than check for tnsnames.ora file you must be having two files and both must be having right configuration.

Oracle 10g Lite Mobile Devices

Hi,
1. Does Oracle 10g lite Support Arabic?
2. Does Oracle 10g lite Support Windows Mobile 5.0, PPC 2005?
3. On a PPC 2003 OS the sync worked well but after it finished the device manager started to register the device on the mobile server, there is an error raised that has invalid error code and as description 'Insufficient information to proceed',
Help Me In That Please?

Hi,
ad 1: Oracle Lite should support all the charsets the "big" Oracle server supports - even unicode afaik.
ad 2: yes, OLite supports WM5 (you have to install a patchset from metalink to enable WM5 support - try to search previous threads)
ad 3: what is the regional settings of your device? if it's some arabic culture which is not present in default OLite installation, you'll have to make some changes into Oracle Lite system tables to support your platform. In OL10g the "platform" is defined as a combination of OS type, CPU type and current OS culture settings - for example something like "WM5 + XScale CPU + czech culture". I used something like this to replace all the japanese platforms with our language to enable support for devices wit czech locale settings:
UPDATE mobileadmin.dm$all_platforms
SET NAME = REPLACE(NAME, ';JA', ';CS'),
TYPE = REPLACE(TYPE, '_JA_', '_CS_')
WHERE NAME LIKE '%;JA';
INSERT INTO mobileadmin.DM$LANG_MAP
(LANG_ID, LANG_NAME, LANG_CODE, LANG_REG, CODE_PAGE)
VALUES
('CS', 'Czech', 'CS', 'CZ', '1250');
you'll than probably also need to copy some files from default US locale to your new locale directory:
{ora10gLiteR2}\mobile_oc4j\j2ee\mobileserver\applications\mobileserver\setup\us => {ora10gLiteR2}\mobile_oc4j\j2ee\mobileserver\applications\mobileserver\setup\{your_locale}
than the device should be able to get registered...
