Oracle 9i client tools

Hey all,
I just installed Oracle 9i Developer suite. the Database is in my school. The problem is the book that I have is suggesting that I have to download something called the Oracle 9i client tools version 9.2 in order to connect to the server at the University. Can any body tell me where to get this client tools or have another idea to do that. Thanks

Installing Oracle 8i client tools on Windows 2K Advanced Server SP2

I am having issues with installing Oracle 8i client tools on W2K Advanced Server SP2. The CD I have is labeled Oracle 8i Enterprise Edition, Release 3 (8.1.7) Win NT/2000 CSI# 2224188. The error message I get is that a dependency exist on having ORACLE.SWD.JRE 1.1.8.10.0 installed and the universal installer cant find it. The disk has a folder named ORACL.SWD.JRE with a subfolder named 1.1.7.30 which leads me to believe that the version of the file that shipped with this media is version 1.1.7.30.
Questions:
1. Why would Larry ship a CD with the wrong version of a file...just venting.
2. Where do I get the correct version?
3. How do I install it?
Any help would be appreciated.

Oracle8i on PIV
If you have Pentium IV do following: find file symcjit.dll file in the oracle installation folder and rename it to symcjit.old.
try to run setup.exe located in the install/win32 folder.
Oracle9i on W2K
Install service pack 2 or higher
Virtual memory between 800 and 900 MB ( Recommended )
if for any cause setup.exe does not make anything,
try to make click on autorun.exe

Oracle XE Client Tools

Besides the SQL*Plus command line client interface and the HTML DB Web client interface, are there are other tools that can be used to enter SQL or PL/SQL commands to Oracle XE? Are they available for download? Thank you.

Well,
you can basically use all tools that are available as client tools for any Oracle database.
Oracle tools (from Oracle) you don't need a license for are:
- Oracle Raptor (not production yet but stable): http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/project_raptor/index.html
- Oracle JDeveloper ( Java Development environment ): http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/index.html
Besides that you can use any client tool to work with Oracle ( http://www.google.de/search?num=50&hs=MAE&hl=en&newwindow=1&safe=off&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla%3Ade%3Aofficial&q=oracle+client+tool+sql+&btnG=Search ) and through ODBC / OLEDB even with many MS tools, e.g. MS ACCESS.
Toad is pretty powerful: http://www.toadsoft.com/lic_agree.html
What type of client tool are you looking for?

Best client tool to connect to Oracle DB

I wanted to know which should be the best client tool to connect to Oracle database. TOAD is a good option but there is also reference of SQL developer these days.
I hope, my question is clear about which should be a good client tool to connect to Oracle DB.
Please revert with the reply to my query.

RegardsIt depends on what criteria YOU use to define "best".
If your only tool is a hammer, all problems look like nails.
Depending on the task, I use the following, preference in the order listed
- sqlplus
- SQLDeveloper
- dbcontrol
- SQLNavigator

Error to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0

hello,
I try to connect oracle 10g client and designer BO 4.0.
I created an ODBC connection to function in the administration tools of data sources but I can not connect once in designer.
I tried using the driver directly oracle designer 10 but I have the same error that is this:
DBD: ORA-12154: TNS: connection identifier specified could not be resolved
someone there had the same concerns?
cordially

Hi,
so it looks like that your TNSNAMES.ORA file isn`t properly configured. Thats why you can connect with the IDT to your Oracle Database.
Your DBA`s should sent you the correct TNSNAMES.ORA file or the entry for your DB prior. After the tnsping works, you will be able to use the IDT properly.

Creating Oracle service in Oracle 8i Client for Oracle 10g XE

Hi all
We tried Oracle 10g XE on one Machine X - OS Windows XP Professional SP2 , It had earlier Oracle 8i Client. It installed fine. It is wonderful and easy to install.
Services started automatic for listner as well as OracleXE. We are able to create fresh Oracle Service in Oracle 8i client as well from the same machine X.
Problem
We are not able to create Oracle Service from another machine say Y which also has Oracle 8i client with the Oracle 10g XE service. We get TNS Problem error.
Kindly guide as to how to make oracle service with OracleXE from some other machine. OracleXE does not install networking tools.
Suresh Bansal

Oracle XE doesn't install assistants such as dbca or netca, don't expect to find them, XE is a compact and limited oracle edition.
>> We get TNS Problem error.
Could you please further detail the tns error you got?

I input User/Schema and Password
I select connect as option as "Normal"
When I hit Ok I get following error in Toad popup dialog box :---

I get the error message, "Could not locate OCI DLL". Now what?
Toad is indicating that it cannot find a SQL*Net or Net8 installation, which is required in order for Toad to connect to a database.
Make sure <OracleHome>\bin folder is in PATH, and that some version of oraxy.dll, e.g., ora71.dll, ora72.dll, etc. exists in that folder or elsewhere in the PATH. For Oracle8, the OCI dll is named OraClient8.dll. For Oracle9, the OCI dll is named OraClient9.dll.

Request: enable use of sql*plus via Oracle Instant Client.

hi,
great project....
I've just installed Raptor release 3 on top of oracle instant client, and it seems to be running fine. my sql*plus from the instant client functions from the command line, but the sql*plus menu item in the tools menu is grayed out.
review of the help files say's that oracle_home must be set, but instant client does not need an oracle_home. (uses tns_admin instead).
is there a work around for this? (other than loading the full oracle client w/ it's sql*plus)
thanks
GT

The SQL*Plus menu item does not seem to be correctly detecting the current connection context. I'm filing this as a bug to be fixed before we ship. In the current version, however, you can enable the menu item by ensuring first that the connection is selected in the Connections navigator.
When the menu is invoked, you will be prompted for the location of the SQL*Plus executable. On Windows, this should just be the path to sqlplus.exe (or sqlplusw.exe). On Unix platforms, you should include 'xterm' or an equivalent in order to ensure that SQL*Plus invokes in a window.

Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException not compatible version

Hi,
i have installed the oracle developer tools for VS2005.NET. In my programms i put a reference to the Oracle.DataAccess.dll Version 2.102.2.20 in my Project. I can start and run this Programm on the same PC without problems.
If i copy the Programm-Exe and the Oracle.DataAccess.dll on an other PC and start this Programm there, i became a Error-Message:
"Unbehandelte Ausnahme: System.TypeInitializationException: Der Typeninitialisier
er für Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleConnection hat eine Ausnahme verursacht. -

Is there anybody that can help me?
thanks,

You need to run the installer to install ODP.NET on the target machine. Simply copying a few files is not good enough (at least not until we support xcopy instant client).

Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OpsSql::ExecuteReader() never returns

Within a single day I have experienced twice a peculiar problem with Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OpsSql::ExecuteReader()
Calling ExecuteReader() blocks indefinitely on a simple select query (it was a different query the two times). The CPU of the Oracle Server was low, so it is not likely that it has been too busy (and moreover at least 10 minutes passed, and it was still blocked)
Strangely in v$session there was no session entry for the particular process+thread that made the call. There was an inactive session from the same process, but different thread
My guess is that somehow the Oracle executed the query, but the Oracle Client was not notified and remained waiting. The issue happened on a virtual machine with not stable network connection. Could it be that some packets were lost and the Oracle Client just kept waiting?
Can anybody recommend a course of action?
Btw, I use ODP.NET 2.111.6.20

I use VPN all day every day, and havent seen that problem.
A client sqlnet trace may help as well, and I'm guessing will show the client is waiting on a packet from the db.
You may want to take a hang dump using ADPlus, and my guess is you'll see a socket stuck in WSA_Recv32 (waiting for a packet that never comes).
The default time to wait for a packet is like 2 hours if I remember right.
You may want to see if your network guys can have a look, or use a tool like WireShark to monitor packets.
Hope it helps, sorry I dont have a quick easy answer for you.

Hi,
Well, the steps as the same as install Oracle Server Database.
Which tools on the Oracle Client you want to use ?
Maybe Oracle Instant Client is more interesting for you.

Problems Installing Oracle 9i Client

I got problems while I'm trying to Install Oracle 9i Client on a Windows 98 PC.
When I run Setup.exe file, nothing happens, I cant See Setup dialogs.
Somebody knows what is happening.
I appreciate some help
Best regards

This was posted by someone else sometime ago. I'm posting it again for your reference. hope this helps.

You must read carefully the following steps here. If you previously installed any Oracle's products on your machine, I strongly recommend you to clean up thoroughly before install the new products.
================================================================
Uninstallation
The easiest way to remove ALL traces of Oracle software, for an 8i installation, is:
(1) Using regedit, remove the key \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\SOFTWARE\ORACLE.
(2) Remove all the Oracle services (usually called Ora-something) from \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services.
(3) Go to the ORACLE_HOME directory (usually C:\Oracle\Ora81). Go to the BIN directory beneath this. Rename the file OCIW32.DLL to something like OCIW32.OLD.
(4) Reboot your box.
(5) Once you have logged on again, delete the directories C:\Program Files\Oracle and C:\Oracle.
(6) Right-click on My Computer, select Properties->Environment. Edit the environmental variable PATH to remove all refernces to files in the two directories you have just deleted.
(7) Remove the Oracle folders from your Start menu.
*** Obviously, using regedit on your machine always entails risks, and I won't be held responsible if you end up trashing your system. However, the above procedure is one I have used many times with complete success. You have been warned! ;) ***
As to logging on, the "standard" Oracle accounts are:
SYS/change_on_install (SYSDBA - database owner)
SYSTEM/manager (Owns various VIEWs and utility PACKAGEs)
and (optionally):
SCOTT/tiger (Training account containing some sample tables)
If you're using PO8i on the local machine, you shouldn't need to worry about setting up NET*8 (Oracle's networking protocols)
=================================================================
Windows 95 and 98
This will remove all Oracle products, Oracle services, and Oracle registry entries from your computer.
Complete the following steps to create a Clean Machine. Backup any relevant databases before proceeding!
On Windows 95 and Windows 98:
1. Ensure you shutdown your Oracle. Right click on the Oracle Icon in the toolbar and click on the shutdown option.
2. Un-install all your Oracle products if possible. Use universal installer to do that. Ignore this step if you dont have universal installer on your machine.
3. In regedit, go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE.
4. Delete the ORACLE key.
5. Edit your AUTOEXEC.BAT file and remove your %ORACLE_HOME%\bin and JRE paths from the path setting.
6. From the Windows Explorer (or from the command prompt), delete the Oracle directory (Oracle Base).
7. Delete <system_drive>:\Program Files\Oracle (from the Windows NT Explorer or from the command prompt).
8. Delete Icons from <system_drive>: \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle - <HOME> and <system_drive>:\Windows\StartMenu\Programs\Oracle Installation Products. Where <HOME> is the previous HOME name.
9. Reboot your computer.
On Windows NT:
1. Ensure you are logged in as a user with Administrator privileges.
2. Stop all Oracle Services through Control Panel Services. Use universal installer to un-install your Oracle products. Ignore un-install if you dont have universal installer on your machine.
3. Using regedit (at the command prompt, type regedit), go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE and delete the ORACLE key.
4. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services, and remove all keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services that begin with ORACLE.
5. Open HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application, and remove all keys under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\EventLog\Application that begin with ORACLE.
6. Close regedit.
7. From the Control Panel, open System.
8. If JRE was installed by Oracle, remove the %ORACLE_HOME%\BIN path and the JRE path. For example, you may see a path similar to this one: C:\ORACLE\ORAxx\BIN;G: \Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\bin. Go to Start > Control Panel > System > Environment tab. Click on the system variable path and modify the path.
9. Delete Icons from <system_drive>:\Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle - <HOME> and <system_drive>:\Winnt\Profiles\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Oracle Installation Products. Where <HOME> is the previous HOME name.
10. Delete <system_drive>:\Program Files\Oracle (from the Windows NT Explorer or from the command prompt).
11. Reboot your computer.
12. Delete all ORACLE_BASE directories (You can find the Oracle homes listed in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\ORACLE_HOMES).

Oracle Universal Installer (OUI) for 8.1.x Hangs on Machines
with Pentium 4
Processors
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Versions Affected
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Oracle 8.1.5
============
Oracle Universal Installer 1.6.0.9.0
Oracle 8.1.6
=============
Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.0.19.0
Oracle 8.1.7
==============
Oracle Universal Installer 1.7.1.9.0
Platforms Affected
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
Sun JRE
and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
Windows 2000
and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be affected.
Description
~~~~~~~~~~~
When installing Oracle Products with the Oracle Universal
Installer (8.1.x)
on machines that use the Sun JRE and Symmantec JIT, the
installer hangs.
Specifically for the Windows platform, the following version
of the Symmantec
JIT or earlier will encounter the failure:
Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for JDK
1.2.
Details regarding this issue can be found at:
http://developer.intel.com/design/processor/future/manuals/knowni ssue.htm
How to determine if you have Symmantec Java for JDK 1.2:
1. Select the file "symcjit.dll" and right click on it.
2. Select Properties, then the Version tab.
3. Under Microsoft Windows*, the properties of the DLL are:
"Symantec Java! JustInTime Compiler Version 3.10.107 for
JDK 1.2 Copyright (C)
1996-99 Symantec Corporation Dynamic Link Library file".
DLLs older than this will also not work. "
Likelihood of Occurrence
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any platform that uses the Intel Pentium 4 processor, with the
Sun JRE
and Symmantec JIT will encounter this problem. Windows NT,
Windows 2000 and NetWare platforms are confirmed to be
affected.
Possible Symptoms
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The failure typically is that the affected application simply
terminates.
Workaround
~~~~~~~~~~
Not only will OUI be affected by this bug, most of the
post-install
configuration tools will also be affected. Running these
tools with "-nojit"
specified will avoid the hang, but it is not simple to specify
"-nojit" for
some of the products.
The following workaround works for the Windows operating
system:
a. Copy only the install directory from the CD to the hard
disk ,say, e:\temp.
b. Open oraparam.ini and make the following modifications
(Assuming CD
drive is f:)
* Change the "SOURCE=" line to use the full path to the CD
instead of a
relative path. (i.e., SOURCE=f:\stage\products.jar)
* Change the "JRE_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
CD instead of a
relative path. (i.e.,
JRE_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\jre\1.1.7\1\DataFiles
\Expanded)
* Change the "OUI_LOCATION" line to use the full path to the
CD instead of a
relative path. (i.e.,
OUI_LOCATION=f:\stage\Components\oracle\swd\oui\1.6.0.9.0\1\DataF
iles\Expanded
* Change the "JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS" line to add "-nojit" as the
first argument.
(i.e., JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m)
^^^^^^
* Other entries should remain the same
c. Launch setup.exe from the temporary location on your hard
drive (i.e.
e:\temp\install\win32\setup.exe). This will use the
modified
oraparam.ini and pick up the information from the CD since
the absolute
locations are specified.
Choose a Custom install and choose not to create a database
during the
install. This way, the Database Configuration Assistant will
not be launched
during installation.
The Net8 Configuration Assistant will still be launched, and
there is no way
to suppress it. You will need to kill the Net8 Configuration
Assistant if it
hangs due to the bug. The installation still will have been
successful, and
you can run the DBCA and NetCA after installation.
To kill NetCA if it hangs during installation:
In the "Configuration Tools" window, highlight the "Net8
Configuration
Assistant" and click "Stop". If that does not work, look for
the most recent
JRE process using the Task Manager, and kill it manually.
NOTE: the OUI
itself will also have a jre process. Be sure to kill the one
with the most
recent date, which should be the jre process being used for
Net8CA, not the
one for OUI itself.
After killing the configuration tools and continuing through
the installation
to the "End of Installation" screen, you should modify the
configuration tools
to use "-nojit", then call the appropriate tools from the
Start Menu.
Once installation is complete, each of the following files in
the ORACLE_HOME
needs to be modified:
assistants\dbca\dbassist.cl
assistants\dbma\dbmig.cl
assistants\ifa\ifa.cl
bin\elogin.cl
bin\owm.cl
ldap\oidamdin\oidadmin.cl
network\tools\netasst.cl
network\tools\netca.cl
owm\install\instelogin.cl
owm\install\instowm.cl
Edit the contents of the above files to add "-nojit" as shown
below:
Command=("C:\Program Files\Oracle\jre\1.1.7\BIN\JREW" -nojit
-classpath ....
this is the only thing you need to add --> ^^^^^^
Then, launch the necessary tools, like Net8CA and DBCA from
the Start Menu.
Patches
~~~~~~~
Currently there is not a patched installer available to deal
with this
problem, the workaround listed above must be used.

The solution of making a local copy of the installation CD on

Windows ME
Solution to the installation of Oraclei8.1.7 PE in Windows Millennium
Oracle does not support installing version 8.1.7 PE into
Windows Millennium.
As an unsupported workaround, you may add the following line
to the [compatibility95] section of win.ini prior to
installation:
Jrew=0x00080000
After setup is complete, Oracle will recommend a reboot.
There is one additional step necessary prior to reboot;
Oracle may add a non-standard path statement to the
autoexec.bat file. Please modify this SET PATH
statement to use short-filenames if you find a quoted
LFN string represented as part of the path. You can
confirm that the path was merged successfully into the
registry after reboot by examining the PATH variable
in the registry at
HKLM\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\SessionManager\Environment
Symptoms of a missing Oracle path statement in the registry are that Net8 Easy Config will not launch.
Please note that Oracle does not support the use of this
product in Windows ME, but have authorized these workarounds
for testing purposes only.

Oracle 8i is not certified on windows XP. Even if yes, it must be Windows XP Professional.
You can install Oracle8i on windows XP Home Edition, try like this:
1 - Copy your Oracle CD into hard disk in your
machine. For example Copy from oracle8i CD into C:\Oracle\ ...
2 - Search the two files named Symcjit.dll on the D drive (where you have copied Oracle8i. You can found them in (example):
C:\Oracle\stage\Components\oracle.swd.jre\1.1.7.30\1
\DataFiles\Expanded\jre\win32\bin\symcjit.dll
3 - Rename this file (Example): symcjit_back.dll (make sure to find two files and rename them)
4 - Execute the Oracle setup.exe from C:\Oracle\setup.exe
===============================================================
When Oracle 8i dies on the install or the installer hangs, here is the fix for this, make sure that you have Service Pack 2 installed.
1. \JRE\1.3.1\ From Sun. (You can download java program at http://java.sun.com/products/jdk/1.1/jre/download-jre-windows.html)
2. Install the java file.
There is also a problem in the installation disk.
3. Make a copy of the Oracle 8i disk on the local hard disk.
4. Do a search for the two files called symcjit.dll and rename them for example: symcjit.old.
5. Install Oracle from the win32 directory.
