Oracle 8i Windows Client and 9i Unix Database server

Is it recommended to use Oracle Windows 8i client against Oracle 9i Database server?
Does anyone have an official Oracle link about this?
Thanks
Dipak

Only by putting an Oracle 8 database between them... You can set up an Oracle 8 database with a dblink to the Oracle 7 database and connect to that via an Oracle 9 client. Not pretty and not particularly efficient, but it'll work in a pinch.

817 / 9i windows client against 9i Unix Database server

Does it cause any problem like core-dump if I have both 8.1.7 and 9i windows clients connect to 9i Unix Database server to different account(sid) ? Thanks

Any combination of 8i and 9i clients and servers should work. You only start running into problems when you have 7.3.4 clients and 9.2 servers (or vice versa) or older 8.0 clients and 9.2 servers (or vice versa).
There is a certification matrix available on the OTN main page (under Get Support I believe) that will list all the permissible combinations.

Windows 7, Oracle DB, Instant Client and VBScript

I'm trying to to connect to a Oracle database via vbs on a Windows 7 machine using the instant client. I get an error [Oracle][ODBC][Ora]Ora-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error Code 80004005. Script still works fine in XP using the Microsoft ODBC for oracle. I've setup the system dsn, and added tns_admin option to the system environmental path. Here's the connection line
psconn.Open "DRIVER={Oracle in instantclient_11_2};SERVERNAME=192.168.50.1:1521/PSPRODDB;User Id=user;Password=pass;"
I've tried 32 bit instant client and the 64 bit and get the same messages with both. Any suggestions?

12560 means you didnt supply a tnsnames alias, and a database was not found in that home.
Try this:
"DRIVER={Oracle in instantclient_11_2};DBQ=192.168.50.1:1521/PSPRODDB;uid=user;pwd=pass;"
Using Oracle ODBC Driver
Hope it helps,

Trying to understand text encodings between windows clients and oracle DB

I am focusing on a "maybe bad configured" oracle windows xp client connecting into a well configured oracle db server (10g for example). Instead of just keep the correct client settings to make it work I would prefer to understand what is really doing the oracle client with all the posible bad configurations regarding encodings.
When the client executes something like "SELECT 'Col1', N'Col2' from dual" before sending the sql sentence into the server the sentence itself should be encoded.
But the way the sentence is encoded or the fact that some magic encoding transform occurs depends on the technology used (Java Thin, OCI, Oledb, etc..) and sometimes it depends on the windows setting "Languages for Non-unicode programs" and sometimes it depends on the client NLS_LANG setting on the registry. Or maybe thigs are simpler and I simply got confused... Here we could add that maybe some third party tool could do some other "helpfull" hidden magic encoding transformation to make it work and things become interesting
A second time when all this encoding stuff should be considered is when the results of the sentences are retrieved on the client.
At this point the client receives an byte stream from the server (that could be a VARCHAR column or a NVARCHAR column). Again depending on the technology used the client could be specting a utext, text (OCI) or a CHAR, NCHAR (in JAVA) or a SQL_C_WCHAR, SQL_C_CHAR (in OleDb), etc...
Well, I'm not sure at all about the first point. Is all the sentence encoded in the same way before sending it to the server (ie is sended as plain text) or before the client parses the sentence and it understand that is sending a SELECT statement that returns two cols (one varchar and the other nvarchar)? For example the N, the ' and the Col2 are sent using the same encoding?

Section: Generating ECID by Native/WS/Jolt clients and Domain Gateway
We are using Jolt Clients, via JSL for executing Tuxedo Services. The problem, we always face while debugging is cross relation. It would be extremely useful for us if we could get the ECID printed in webserver and tuxedo server process. Can we get ECID using any programming API in jolt client and in Tuxedo server process ? It would help us to correlate web, Tux and server logs

How does Oracle client communicate with a database server

Looking to idenify how Oracle Database Client for OpenVMS communicates with database server and whether the protocol used is secure. Realize that it is using whatever the configured network protocol is (ie. tcpip) but is languauge it uses ( ie. SQL, etc..) secured/encrypted and if not what steps can be taken to encypt

I have installed oracle client 10g on client pc for getting connection to Oracle databse 10g (runng on windows server) usng ODBC through SAGE ACC PAC (ERP). Working fine earlier. Now all of a suddent user starts complaining about database connection. When checked his pc registry values. Two values of ODBC keys are reset to null. Those are DSN and DRIVER values. How come this values reset to null? What is causing this to reset?Nothing in this has anything to do with the sever. You need to check what the client did on his machine that caused registry to get modified?
How does oracle ODBC works with Oracle database? Need to know all the steps involved?The connectoin from any client is initiated by a client process. This client process is supposed to get a server process to do his work. So if this is done, the client can work now with oracle . Please see the concepts guide for the gory details of the entire process.

Running JavaFX as client and connecting though Database

Hello,
I am searching for the feasibility of JavaFX for a client.I want to run JavaFX on client machine(can be multiple clients) and through some middle layer I want to connect it through database server etc.
How is this possible.?

I guess you find plenty of samples in the net on how to use a WebService from a pure Java client.If one knows to look for the JAX-RS (reference implementation: Jersey) or JAX-WS (reference implementation: Metro) APIs. I'd prefer JAX-RS because it is very easy to use, IF you take the time to read up about RESTful webservices.

Mathieu,
Take a look at the user guide for NAM -

You will see the protocols support like GTC that should allow you not to have to deploy certs.

Copy file from client machine to unix db server

Dear all,
I have oracle form 10g, and data base server using 10 r 2,
I have an oracle for to browse client XML file and return the name of the file including the path to TEXT item what I want to do after that is to copy the seelcted file from the client to DB server (hint this server over Unix operating system)
I tried
V_Cpy_Result := Webutil_File.Copy_File ('C:\File_Name.Xml', '/u01/oradata/odsuat/ssr_xml_dir/Outbound/File_Name.Xml');
but this does't work, please provide me with the way or the command that I can copy the selected file from client to Unix DB server...

Hello,
If you want to transfer files between client machine and A.S. or database machine, use the Webutil file_transfer package's functions.

10.7.4 client and 10.6.8 server MCX issues

Hello
I am testing a 10.7.4 client bound to AD/10.6.8 OD server (magic triangle) setup.
Everything server side is fine for 10.6.x clients whereas I am experiencing some issues with my test 10.7.4 client.
I have defined several network volumes to be mounted at login (MCX - OD computer group level) but - unlike 10.6.8 clients - the 10.7.4 tries to mount volumes even when it's offline (no network) and therefore it says the volumes are not available (error window).
If I bind the same client to a test 10.7.4 OD server, everything is fine, the same volumes are being ignored when offline.
Is there a reason/fix for such behavior?
Many thanks for your help
Ciao
Carlo

Check the client and server log files for any relevent errors (Applications > Utilities > Console.app), and also confirm that DNS services are correct on both the server and the clients.
To verify DNS on the server, launch Applications > Utilities > Terminal.app and issue the (non-destructive) command:
sudo changeip -checkhostname
to confirm that the server's DNS settings are correct.

Problem synchronizing windows clients with solaris 10 NTP server

Hello everyone,
I realyy need help on the following:
I tried to synchronize windows 2003 as client with NTP server running in Solaris 10
My Time Zone in the NTP server is GMT+3, and in my windows is also set to GMT+3
When I start NTP server and clients , I got 6 hours delay between the clients and the server
I tried to synchronize the Solaris server with another solaris system, the synchronization is working fine
Your help
Regards
Hakim Fourar

True (but only for later releases). But since he mentioned getting a 6 hour offset after starting them, that makes me think that the systems are communicating, and that the time zones are incorrect.
This is easily verified by using 'ntpq -p' and 'date ; date -u'. The first will show if the client thinks it is synchronized to a server (and what the UTC offset is in miliseconds). The second will show the date in the default timezone and in UTC.
If you're not using POSIX, you'd think that GMT+XX meant east of UTC, but for POSIX, it means west of UTC.

Ok, taking the leap. Tossing out all Windows servers and going with Lion Server only!

Help! We are retiring our Windows 2000 server (finally) and going with Lion Server only. We are transitioning from Windows to Mac and have 30 PC's running XP and a few scattered Windows 7 PC's (Lab). We have teachers and staff using Mac computers. Can I authenticate my windows pc's to Lion server?

1. We are running lion on the old Xservs because we had them. Thought they still would be good file servers. And we thought Lion would work on them but know that mountain lion will not
2. We have looked up some errors and they have to do with spotlight not getting index finnished with all the adobe files in folders, subfolders and subsubfolders. The vnode errors have something to do with lots ofmopen files but we do not know why. Maybe all these many directiries of files in deep hierarchy of adobe CS which the department does shared work directly on the server is issue. We have tried to get them tomuse as archive only but they do not habe a clue how to do shared work on separate clients. This deparment is not very savy in use but imtense Adobe CS users and my concern is these old file servers cannot take this kind of use.?
Imposted the logs because i have no clue to why they keep filling up (the vnodes).

User cannot access redirected Documents folder, but can connect to share in Windows Explorer and access folder on server

I am in the final stages of a cross-forest migration. Users have Windows 7 workstations with redirected folders on a Windows Server 2012 box running in the old forest. User accounts were not migrated. The accounts in use have always
been in the "new" forest. One of our challenges was the large volume of data in redirected folders. I made sure users in the target forest had continued to have access to their redirected folders in the old forest and robocopied
the entire users share, copying the permissions with the files. By doing incremental robocopies, we can get a final copy done now in about six hours. The plan was simple: copy the files, do an incremental copy every night, on the night of the cutover
change the folder redirection policy Documents path from
\\oldserver\users\%USERNAME% to
\\newserver\users\%USERNAME%. The policy is configured to NOT copy user files from the existing folder to the new redirected folder. Everything was going well until I tested the policy change. After the folder redirection policy is updated
and applied, the user cannot access the private Documents folder. For example, user Chester Tester logs on as ctester. I open Windows Explorer and click the Documents shortcut. I see one subfolder, which is subfolder of Public Documents.
So I can look at Public Documents but when I click on the Documents folder (Under the Documents library link) I get an access denied error. Now for the kicker, if I open another Windows Explorer window and edit the address bar to
\\newserver\users\ctester, I can navigate the Documents folder tree and see my thousands of documents. What the ....?
I'm hoping this is something really simple to fix!
TIA

HI Vivian,
Thank you for your reply. Yes, the path in Group Policy Folder Redirection Root Path was updated to
\\NEWSERVER\users. I had planned to point this to the distributed file system, so the first used was actually
\\domain\dfs\users. To simplify things I have backed off to copying to just a normal share
\\newserver\users.
We are using BASIC folder redirection and we create a folder for each user under the root path.
We did not want the policy to move content, as we were seeing users requiring 15-20 minute logon times (or higher) after the policy is changed.
Grant the User exclusive right to Documents - Disabled
Move the contents of Documents to the new location - Disabled
Related folder settings
Video - Follow Documents
Music - Follow Documents
Pictures - Follow Documents
Now when I change the folder redirection from old server to new server I now have TWO My Documents folders in the user's redirection folder on the server. The redirected Documents points to an empty folder set. The copied folders with all user
data are there, but folder redirection refuses to recognize the original folder.
I am looking at the full view of the folder, nothing hidden, so I'm wondering how a folder can have two subfolders with the exact same name. For now, I just want the redirection to move from the old server to the new server properly. I deleted
the new My Documents folder, rebooted the user's workstation and tried again. The behavior repeats itself, i.e., a new My Documents folder is always created when the redirection policy is changed from the old server to the new server. The environment
has about 1500 users with approximately 1.3TB of data in the redirected Documents folders. OUCH!

Htmldb 1.6 and 10.2 database server

Hi,
I've been trying to find out is it supported to upgrade database which hosts htmldb 1.6 to 10.2. In htmldb 1.6 install document it says htmldb 1.6 should be installed to 9i or 10.1 database. I was not able to find anything from certify for HTMLDB. Can you please let me know is htmldb 1.6 certified against 10.2 database server.
Thanks,
Nina

Nina - 1.6 and 10.2 will work. The install guide for 1.6 doesn't mention 10.2 because it was published 2 years ago.

Separate ASCS and PAS from Database server

Dear friends, in a customer we have the following need:
We need to separate de ASCS and the Primary application server to a host different from database server. The SAP system is an ERP 6.0 EHP4 based in NW 7.01.
We have used Software provisoning manager to splitt off the ASCS from the CI. Before the splitt off we only had the directory DVEBMSG00, and after the splitt off, we had ASCS01 and DVEBMSG00 directories. But, this is only half of the solution, because we need to move this services to another hosts.
We tried to use Software provisioning manager to deinstall the ASCS, and install it in the other host. This works. But the problem is the Primary application server, because if we uninstall it, when insttall in the other host with the option "System Copy" the sapinst promts for the installation export.
In the Marketplace i could not find any note form aour scenario.
Do you know a way to separate de CI and the PAS from de database server without a system copy?
Thanks and best regards.

Hi
http://scn.sap.com/community/netweaver-administrator/blog/2013/12/04/why-splitting-off-the-ascs-from-pas
This link might be useful
But if you have a system based on SAP NetWeaver 7.0x, this option is not available in the 70SWPM, The only way to do that would be running a system copy of the system. Then during the target system installation, you would be able to install the new system with sepated ASCS from PAS . "
