Oracle 9i and Oracle Client 7x

We upgraded our database software from 7.3.4 to 9i. The application we are using is the Viking Development System and is still a 16-bit application.
I was able to get certain parts of the program to work on a variety of workstations (95, 98 and 2000), but on each workstation there are pieces that do not work.
Here is some of the errors...
When I try to post the donation transactions, I get the following error messages. A general Protection fault occurred in module sql16w95.dll at 0001:139F
I have renamed the file to sql16w95.dll to sql16w95.old as suggected in bug 2171024.
Now the following message appears...
Unable to load VIP DIctionary Status=3113
There is also a problem with the lookup screen. The actual database information is OK. But it shows some pledge balances are incorrect. They show the balance as being 14.717 instead of 177.17 for example.
I need a solution to these problems.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks
Mark
We are running a 16bit application (Viking Development System) using an Oracle 7 client on a 9i database.

If you want to make sure the application connecting through oracle client
set the pah variable
Enter
C:>path
Oracle bin directories will be displayed along with other variables.see which oracle version comes first.
If it is 10g then the Oracle will use 10g client to establish conneciton but if 9i installation is displayed first then it is going to use 9i client
To change 10g as default client
you can set it 2 ways
Right click my computer>properties?advance tab--click environement variables
select PATh variable..
OR
launch Oralce universl installer
click installed products
click environment tab
Select the 10g home and click the UPWARD arrow at the right hand side to make Oracle 10g as default client
You can see oracle bin directories.Just cut the Oracle 10g installation with bin and paste in front of all the variable in the PATH value

Installing oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host

Is it possible to install Oracle 10g and 11g client on the same Linux RHEL 5.4 host and have the application switch between 10g and 11g? and how would the 10g and 11g be installed?

Thanks for your reply.
Typeically if 10g is installed in /home/roacle/product/10.2.0, are you saying that for 11g, it would be /home/oracle/product/11.0.0 ?
How about switching the application? Does changing the ORACLE_HOME and PATH environment variable setting enough ? Let's say from
ORACLE_HOME=/home/oracle/product/10.2.0/client_1 to /home/oracle/product/11.0.0/client_1

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.

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?

Sharing in Symetrics Array an Oracle datawerehouse and oracle database 9i

i want to know if someone have an sharing in Symetrics Array an Oracle

datawarehouse and db9i on the same arrary. Just know any comment if
whichever with share with me your expertise from any situation with
this, please.
Thanks

Thanks for the reply.
Actually I thought that the OCCI forum was for Object oriented OCI, so while I'm using C++, I'm not using the object oriented side of OCI, just using the normal OCI calls. Guess I should have been a little clearer in my original post.
But my main question really concerned the version of the client and the version of the database which you answered.
Thanks,

Questions on the comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX

Hi All,
The link below presents information about Oracle Application Express for Oracle Forms Developers, the table at the end of the page shows a comparison between Oracle Forms and Oracle APEX, all the points of comparisons are clear for me except 3 points which are:
•Locking, what is meant by locking models?
•Database Connections, what is meant by Synchronous/Asynchronous connections in Oracle Forms and Oracle Apex?
•Architecture, what is meant by 2tier and 3 tier connections?
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/html/apex_for_forms.html
What I need is a simple explanation for these points without deep details.
Thanks

Hi
That is how I understand that document:
Locking: Forms, by default, locks a row as soon as the user starts modifying the data. That is pessimistic locking. Apex, on other hand (and optionally forms also) do not lock the record, but before applying any changes checks if the data has changed since the user queried it (what for some reason is called optimistic "locking")
DB connections: I am not sure why they used the terms synchronous/asynchronous, but the difference is that Forms, by default, keeps an permanent DB connection while the user is using the application, while Apex gets a connection from a connection pool every time a page is requested/submitted.
Architecture: Forms (in its web version at least) has 3 tiers: the browser, the appserver where the forms service runs and the database. As Apex runs inside the database, there are only 2 tiers: the browser and the database (though you still may need an http server in between which serves static content, I don't think it is considered part of the application in this context). If you are talking about client/server forms, then there are only 2 tiers.
I hope this helps!

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

Hello Priya,
Look into the following.
1. Book - Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g by r. Kothuri, A. Godfrind, E. Beinat. This book provides a nice introduction on Oracle Spatial concepts and have examples.
2. Look at the Oracle Spatial & Graph User Guide
2. Book - Applying and Extending Oracle Spatial by S. Greener and S. Ravada. This book provides hands on information for advanced oracle spatial application developers. Practical guide on hands-on examples, Data models and develop cross-vendor database solutions.
3. This oracle spatial forum, once you understand these concepts.

Differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI and Question BAM Data Objects

Hi,
I have two questions.
1. Can someone tell me differences between Oracle BAM and Oracle BI?
My understanding about Oracle BAM is, we use BAM to build Dashboards or Reports.
We can also build DashBoards or reports using Oracle BI.
I am not able to understand why Oracle has two tools for same purpose?
Which tool is more powerful and user friendly(Oracle BI or Oracle BAM)?
2. Every time we plan to develop Dashboard or report in BAM, we need to create BAM ADC Data Object to store Data (i.e first step is to get data from external database or application and second step is to store data in BAM ADC data object).
My understanding is we have an extra step(i.e creating Data Object) in Oracle BAM to develop a report or DashBoard
I am wrong pl correct me?

Shanti Nagulapalli.

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?

Architectural Difference between Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i

hello there
anybody can tell me precisely what is the architecture difference in Oracle 8i and Oracle 9i.
or provide me the link where i can get it.
waiting for reply

What do you mean by "architectural differences"? Fundamentally, Oracle architecture hasn't changed a whole lot in a couple of decades. Certain implementations within the overall Oracle architecture will change over time, normally to support some new feature.
Locally managed tablespaces, for example, automatic segment space management, and automatic extent allocation are pretty important new features, but they don't fundamentally change the architecture of allocating space for objects to store data.
