Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g transaction log shipping

Hi,
We have Oracle 9i and we use the transaction log shipping mechanism to transport our transaction log files to our DR site. We then import these against the database at the remote site.
Our telecomms infrastructure is pretty limited so this is a manual process.
We are looking at upgrading to 10G. I believe that with 10g you have to use dataguard, or is there a way to mimic the behavior of 9i that would allow us to transport and apply the transaction logs manually?
Thanks
Andrew

You can try setting the SGA to a low value and bring up both the databases. I don't think it should be too slow provided you are not running other windows programs.
If you are really interested in trying out new products you can also explore the option of installing VMware, creating virtual machines & installing Linux, and then playing with the different Oracle products. Doing this will at least keep your main windows operating system clean.

Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g in same machine

I have Oracle 9i in a machine. I wanted to install Oracle 10g in the same machine.
I tried installed, and Oracle 10g worked ok.
I have the following problems:
1. Oracle 9i is not starting up. {Oracle 9i Intelligent Agent Failure on startup}
2. I need to use Oracle 9i and Oracle 10g simultaneously.
If any one have experianced this please help to resolve the issue.
Thanks in advance.
Srini

You must use 2 different homes, and later you have to take care of your environment variables, and you must use only one listener in this case the highest version that is 10g.
Tell us: did you install in the same ORACLE_HOME?
Give us details.

How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS

How to install oracle Forms and Report 10g in windows XP OS. Already installed oracle Database 10g in my notebook.
It is working good.
please help me this issue.
please give the steps..............
Thanks
Rajeev

Hello Frank,
for development, you need to install Oracle Developer
Suite 10g. This includes Forms and Reports.this topic interests me too, because I've downloaded Developer Suite and Database (both for 10g) from Oracle website, installed them, but I couldn't connect to a database.
What should be done for me to create a database link and be able to connect locally, in my personal Desktop computer? (Not to a server)
Once it was told me here that I should download 10g Database - I did it, and installed it, but it didn't work. Later, some of my job partners said I should install them in a sequence - that is, 1st the Developer, and 2nd the Database. But it has failed too. And I don't know how to configure a database connection.
Best regards,

32 Bit Installation or Oracle Linux and Oracle Database 10g

I have an old E-Machine that I wanted to put Oracle Linux and Oracle Database Express 11G on. I was just wanting to do some testing and development on the system. I'm pretty sure the machine is 32bit.
I just burned a copy of 32 bit Oracle Linux onto a CD. Is there a version of Oracle Database Express that will run on it?
It seems like there is only a 64 bit version of Oracle Express Database 11g. Is Oracle Database Express 10g installable on Oracle Linux 32 bit?
Let me know! Thanks in an advance.

One (or two) caveats with the 10g version, XE can not be patched and the 10.2.0.1 XEs were created before the current daylight savings time rules went into effect.
If you have access to My Oracle Support there is a method to get updated timezone files for the oracle binaries, you need at least version 4 of the DST files. I've got the MOS docIDs somewhere let us know if needed and I'll dig 'em up.

RESTORE LOG is terminating abnormally.
can this happened due to data base or log file corruption, if so how can i check on that to verify the issue
Its not necessary if the issue is with network it would happen every day IMO it basically happens when load on network is high and you transfer log file which is big in size.
As per message database engine was not able to restore log backup and said that you must rebuild log because it did not find out log to be consistent. From here it seems log corruption.
Is it the same log file you restored ? if that is the case since log file was corrupt it would ofcourse give error on wehatever server you restore.
Can you try creating logshipping on new server by taking fresh full and log backup and see if you get issue there as well. I would also say you to raise case with Microsoft and let them tell what is root cause to this problem

Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters Install Guide

I've downloaded the latest "Oracle Database - Oracle Clusterware and Oracle Real Application Clusters Install Guide - 10g Release 2 (10.2) for HP-UX PA-RISC" (part no. B14202-01) dated August 2005 from OTN. I'm getting the following error when opening the pdf file in Adobe Reader:
"Cannot extract the embedded font 'PEPPLC+Palatino-Italic'. Some characters may not display or print properly."
When I print the manual, I get blank pages throughout the document which, in my opinion, should contain text and don't. Specifically pages 1-11, 2-5, 2-19, 2-24, 2-33, 3-5, 3-19 to name a few. When I go to those pages within the pdf file in Adobe Reader, I get the error: "There was a problem reading this document (114)."
Can you verify this problem on your end. Also, how do I get a good copy of this document?

Hi!

Conflict between oracle 8 and oracle 11

Hi,
I'm having a problem installing oracle 8 and oracle 11 homes at the same time. It looks like the system can only recognize one of the homes. I have 2 different applications running in the same computer. One of them uses oracle 11 and the other oracle 8. The problem is, the one with the oracle 8 can't recognize it, and tries to use the 11, saying it doesn't support the connection. I've checked the registry info and it looks like there is only one Home specified. Should I create a new one? More over, when i use the home selector it says there's only one home available.

Yea they are, I even tried to use a script similar with:

cd "app_folder"
app.exe
EXIT
to make sure the variable with be the correct when we tried to open the application. I can use the application linked to the oracle 11 but, when i try to get in the other it gives me the following error:
The procedure entry point orasql10.sqlxss could not be located in the dynamic link library orasql8.dll.When you change the environment variables in a command line window (run cmd.exe), the changed variable values only exist in that command line window, but those environment variables are inherited by other programs started from the command line window. If the Oracle 8i client is normally listed first in the PATH environment variable, and you want to execute another program that requires the 11g client, you will need to repeat the above steps for the second program.
You can use a program named Dependency Walker to see which DLL files will be accessed by a program (or even a DLL such as ORASQL10.DLL). In the case of a DLL, you would be able to determine if a specific function name sqlxss (ordinal 183 in this case) exists in that DLL. The Dependency Walker program typically ships with Microsoft's development environments. You can find out more about that program here:

Accessing Oracle 7 and Oracle 9 Operations

Hi,
My application requires Oracle 7 and Oracle 9.
I created a domain and deployed my application successfully. In my Server lib i have ojdbc.jar which supports Oracle 9. but i need Oracle 7 and Oracle 9 drivers my application can do all DML Operations to the respective Databases.
Regards,
Bala Voleti

Sait, Thanks for the analysis.
I have DEFAULT_HOME for Oracle 7 and ORACLE_HOME for Oracle 8. Each of them have their own tnsnames.ora, but is almost same. Oracle 8 client install created its tnsnames.ora from existing Oracle 7 tnsnames.ora. There are Oracle dictionary tables like v$session_connect_info, which shows the list of sessions and other details. Is there one to tell the client sql*net version? Or any log file?

Oracle forms and Oracle reports for Oracle 9i

Hello,
I'm searching for Oracle forms and Oracle reports that works with Oracle 9i.
Does someone know where I can find them?
Thanks in advance...

When we talk about Oracle9i, we often mean the database version 9i.
Apparently you want to use Forms and Reports 9i, which included in the obsolete (and very unhappy) Application Server 9i. ... Or the also obsolete Application Server 10g Release 1 (aka App Server 9.0.4.
You are encouraged to look at Forms and Reports 10g (part of the improved Application Server 10g) which does connect to Oracle Database 9i as well as Oracle Database 10g. Look for App Server 10g Release 2, version 10.1.2.0.2 and 10.1.2.2)

Regarding Doubt of oracle upgrade and oracle migration

Hello,
What is the diffrence between oracle upgrade and oracle migration, duirng any one of this is oracle going to touch oracle database and its data?
Regards,
V.Singh

Singh wrote:
Oracle migration means most likely from non-oracle database to migrate to oracle DB or lower hardware platform to higher/advance hardware platformI would say so. Note Oracle was also confused about word "+migrate+" since it was used till 9i to open the database in a special mode to upgrade the database itself. Nowadays, on 10g+, the command became "+upgrade+".
In oracle upgrade we are updating oracle's new software version (9i to 10g) or patchset (102.0.2 to 102.0.4), once software is updated we giving command statup upgrade , during this phase some scripts are updating data so i belive it is updating oracle realted views,data dictionary,functions,triggers etc etc , instead of touching oracle data.Yes, upgrade script modify Oracle data and objects dictionary, but do not modify user's data and objects (if we expect a recompile of invalide objects as recommanded by the latest step of an upgrade).

Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

Hi,
I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
ex:
With oracle7
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP 'CHAMP
champ1 champ2
With Oracle 9
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
champ1 champ2
So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
Thanx.

Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
Anyway,
You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
set lin 310Regards.

Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms?
I have generated a form, which is based on a view. The view uses the mdsys.sdo_relate operator. Somehow I am unable to get the form to perform (to get one record it takes over 20 minutes). While useing sql-navigator to process the same statement it seems no problem. The query that also uses the view, is then processed in 10 seconds.
I also noticed that when text-functions like ' lower' of ' upper' are used to query the view, the query is processed within 15 seconds. If I don't use ' lower' or ' upper' it takes a long time (> 20 minutes) to process the query. Is it possible that this causes the bad performance of the form?
On metalink I have found that forms and spatial do not cooperate because of the pl/sql version that
forms6 uses. There is no solution presented, does anyone know of a work around?
My configuration is:
Oracle 8.1.7 on WIN2K @ PIII-800Mhz 256 Mb memory.
Formsbuilder 6
If requested I can post the queries that I have made.
With regards,
Gerjan Walrecht
