Oracle 9i Database link is broken?

I have been waiting for days for someone to notice that the link for Oracle 9i is not working under Netscape or Microsucks. Please fix it soon... I have a job I want to get and it is centered around Oracle as a database centric system with a focus on IS....
Thanks P

Yes, it does work now. Same browser, same settings. Tried several times during the last days and always got a 404 (page not found). In my book, this couldn't have been a cookie problem, but obviously it's been fixed (at least for the Linux link, haven't tried any other downloads).
Thanks to whoever fixed the link! Susanne

Oracle 11g database link to Oracle 8

Hi,
database-links from an Oracle 11g to an Oracle 8-Database seem to do not work:
The error in enterprise manager is: socket error (translated from german).
There are no alerts at the Oracle 11g-Database.
On the other (Oracle 8) side, the alert we have is an "internal error"
Has anybody else that experience, and maybe a solution?
Thx a lot for your help

Hi All,
Why are you hijacking someone else's thread? This just makes it harder to deal with the OP's issue, even if you think it is closely related to yours, and you haven't given any indication that it is at all related.
I have a DB link called "appdb.message.oracle.com".
In 10g "select * from table@appdb;" is working fine but in 11g not.
Why so?
I have two cars in my garage. One works. One doesn't. Why so?
Some description of "not working" would be helpful. Actual ora-nnnnn error messages even more so.
In 11g if i create DB link with the name "appdb" only then the query "select * from table@appdb;" is working fine.
Is there any update in 11g regarding this DB link names.
Plz help me out..
Help us to help you by giving us some clues. Given my comments above, preferably in your own thread.
Thanks in Advance,

OTN Oracle Rules Samples links are broken

Hello,
The links of Oracle Rules samples are broken.
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/rules/index.html
Someone can help to fix it?
Thank You

Thank You.
I have the examples, because I downloaded when it worked.
This thread is because I don't know where to report the OTN broken links.
Thanks again.

All Oracle XE docuemntation links are broken

An interesting situation - all of the links from http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage result in a 404 response.
As this is the only documentation for XE (no PDFs), this is a real dilemma.

Hi,
I am able to access all the links in http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage. May be this has something to do with your browser settings. Please check.
Thanks.

Strange problem with an Oracle database link to SQL Server

Hi gurus,
Please help me on this problem.
We have an Oracle 10R2 database link to a SQL Server 2000 database. I can select count(*) from The_SQL_Server_Table@myOracleLink, and I can describe The_SQL_Server_Table@myOracleLink, but I cannot select Column1 from The_SQL_Server_Table@myOracleLink! I am getting the ORA-00904: "COLUMN1": invalid identifier error.
Could anyone tell me what is wrong here? By the way, the same user name can select all the columns in The_SQL_Server_Table through ODBC from the client app. But I need the DB link to work with some Oracle stored functions.
Thank you!
Ben

How to activate a database link?

How can one activate a database link w/in SQL*Plus or DBA Studio?
I'm trying to re-create my schema in a new instance and in order to execute my materialized view SQL I must first create a new database link. I'm using the same info as in our other instance so am sure the connection will work IF I can get the database link to be 'active'. I created the link in DBA Studio and attempted to test, but received the error "Database link is not active." Canned it and created through SQL*Plus with same result. I see no option to activate and cannot find any info in 8i DBA Handbook or 8i DBA Bible.
Only way to create an active dblink is to find another link that is already active and do a Create Like.
I figure there's an easy solution to this problem, but cannot figure out what it is. Any help is appreciated!
Thanks.

Nathan,
What is the exact sql your using to create the link? Sometimes I've seen OEM say the link is not active when its a private one (the pressing of the TEST button that is). Maybe it's a bug or something (I just tested it now again to make sure I was getting the db link test error). This is with OEM 1.6x though, I thought it would have been fixed by the current version. Maybe it never was a bug I don't know.
I norammly create and activate a db link like this ...
DROP DATABASE LINK DB_TEST;
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK DB_TEST CONNECT TO <user> IDENTIFIED BY <pass> USING '<tns name entry on the SERVER>;
SELECT NAME FROM V$DATABASE@DB_TEST;
Here's an actual run and gets the databsae name off the linked server ...
15:42:59 ORACLE [->] CREATE DATABASE LINK DB_TEST_PRIVATE CONNECT TO USER1 IDENTIFIED BY
USER1 USING 'TNS1';
Database link created.
15:42:59 ORACLE [->] CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK DB_TEST_PUBLIC CONNECT TO USER1 IDENTIFI
ED BY USER1 USING 'TNS1';
Database link created.
15:42:59 ORACLE [->] SELECT NAME AS "LINK_PRIVATE" FROM V$DATABASE@DB_TEST_PRIVATE;
LINK_PRIV
DEVL
15:43:00 ORACLE [->] SELECT NAME AS "LINK_PUBLIC" FROM V$DATABASE@DB_TEST_PUBLIC;
LINK_PUBL
DEVL
The following link tells more about database links and some good examples ...
http://otn.oracle.com/docs/products/oracle9i/doc_library/901_doc/server.901/a90117/ds_admin.htm#12904
The folowwing is from that page on checking on current open db links ...
--[START]
You may find it useful to determine which database link connections are currently open in your session. Note that if you connect as SYSDBA, you cannot query a
view to determine all the links open for all sessions; you can only access the link information in the session within which you are working.
The following views show the database link connections that are currently open in your current session:
V$DBLINK (view) : Lists all open database links in your session, that is, all database links with the IN_TRANSACTION column set to YES.
GV$DBLINK (view) : Lists all open database links in your session along with their corresponding instances. This view is useful in an Oracle Real Application Clusters
configuration.
--[END]
Sometimes the v$dblink doesn't show all the active ones (since it might have gotton opened under a different user name or something), but doing a simple select * from dual@DB_LINK, will most certainly open it if the connection is not yet open. Creating the databse link itself does not open the actuall connection.
Hope this helps ya,
Tyler D.

Here is my problem:
After i configured it the streams still cannot replicate. And when I checked the EM GUI for streams monitoring it displays a broken database link.
Also it says that the database link is not active.
Can anyone please help?
Thanks.

I don't know what Datacomp is, but you should be able
to connect to any non-Oracle database if there is
an ODBC driver for it. You would use Generic
Heterogeneous Services to do this. See the following
link to the documentation for details:
http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B10501_01/server.920/a96544/gencon.htm#1656
There are also several articles on the Net. Do a google
search on oracle generic heterogeneous services /
connectivity.
Hope this helps.

Interactive report performance problem over database link - Oracle Gateway

Hello all;
This is regarding a thread Interactive report performance problem over database link that was posted by Samo.
The issue that I am facing is when I use Oracle function like (apex_item.check_box) the query slow down by 45 seconds.
query like this: (due to sensitivity issue, I can not disclose real table name)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,b.col3)
, a.col1
, a.col2
FROM table_one a
, table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND a.col4 = 100
AND b.col5 = a.col5
table_one and table_two are remote tables (non-oracle) which are connected using Oracle Gateway.
Now if I run above queries without apex_item.checkbox function the query return or response is less than a second but if I have apex_item.checkbox then the query run more than 30 seconds. I have resolved the issues by creating a collection but it’s not a good practice.
I would like to get ideas from people how to resolve or speed-up the query?
Any idea how to use sub-factoring for the above scenario? Or others method (creating view or materialized view are not an option).
Thank you.
Shaun S.

Hi Shaun
Okay, I have a million questions (could you tell me if both tables are from the same remote source, it looks like they're possibly not?), but let's just try some things first.
By now you should understand the idea of what I termed 'sub-factoring' in a previous post. This is to do with using the WITH blah AS (SELECT... syntax. Now in most circumstances this 'materialises' the results of the inner select statement. This means that we 'get' the results then do something with them afterwards. It's a handy trick when dealing with remote sites as sometimes you want the remote database to do the work. The reason that I ask you to use the MATERIALIZE hint for testing is just to force this, in 99.99% of cases this can be removed later. Using the WITH statement is also handled differently to inline view like SELECT * FROM (SELECT... but the same result can be mimicked with a NO_MERGE hint.
Looking at your case I would be interested to see what the explain plan and results would be for something like the following two statements (sorry - you're going have to check them, it's late!)
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two),
sourceqry AS
(SELECT b.col3 x
       , a.col1 y
       , a.col2 z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM sourceqry
WITH a AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_one),
b AS
(SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
FROM table_two)
SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
WHERE a.col3 = 12345
AND   a.col4 = 100
AND   b.col5 = a.col5If the remote tables are at the same site, then you should have the same results. If they aren't you should get the same results but different to the original query.
We aren't being told the real cardinality of the inners select here so the explain plan is distorted (this is normal for queries on remote and especially non-oracle sites). This hinders tuning normally but I don't think this is your problem at all. How many distinct values do you normally get of the column aliased 'x' and how many rows are normally returned in total? Also how are you testing response times, in APEX, SQL Developer, Toad SQLplus etc?
Sorry for all the questions but it helps to answer the question, if I can.
Cheers
Ben

Not able to create a database link using the database gateway of oracle 11g

HI,
While trying to create a database link to SQL server from Oracle ,using the database gateway provided with 11g, i am getting the following error while making use of it in selecting columns from tables :
Error starting at line 1 in command:
select * from test1@dblink
Error at Command Line:1 Column:20
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-28513: internal error in heterogeneous remote agent
ORA-02063: preceding line from DBLINK
These are the steps i have followed for setting up:
1.Ran the set up for the Database gateway.and mentioned the SQL server name and database .ALos set up a listener.
2. Added the following in the Listener.ora of Oraclehome 11/NETWORK/ADMIN:
LISTENER_SQL_FCD =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST =localhost) (PORT = 1541)
SID_LIST_LISTENER_SQL_FCD =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME=dg4msql)
(ORACLE_HOME= D:\app\20537\product\11.1.0\db_3)
(PROGRAM=dg4msql)
3.Added the following in tnsnames.ora inOracle home/NETWORK/ADMIN:
dg4msql=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1541))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=dg4msql))
(HS=OK)
4. Following is the entry in initdg4msql.ora in C:\product\11.1.0\tg_5\dg4msql\admin:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=10.148.45.242:1433//SalesDemo
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL=DEBUG
HS_FDS_RECOVERY_ACCOUNT=RECOVER
HS_FDS_RECOVERY_PWD=RECOVER
5. Created the database link :
create database link dblink
connect to "sa" identified by "<pswd>"
using 'dg4msql'
On running :select * from test1@dblink i get the following error:
Error starting at line 1 in command:
select * from test1@dblink
Error at Command Line:1 Column:20
Error report:
SQL Error: ORA-28513: internal error in heterogeneous remote agent
ORA-02063: preceding line from DBLINK
Is there any issue with the set or definition that I get the above error?

What is the version of the Oracle database in which you have specified/and use the database link?
If it is for example 10.2.0.3.0 you need to apply the mandatory patch for RDBMS bug 5965763 first before being able to use an 11g gateway. Have a look at MetaLink note 457808.1 for details about this patch.

Ed

Problem with using database link from oracle 7 to oracle 9i

Hi To Every One
I have two oracle database oracle 7.3.4.0.1 and oracle 9i 9.2.0.1.0.
and the tns alias to connect to oracle 9i database is oracle9i and tns
alias to oracle 7 database is oracle7.I have no problem in connect to
these database using these tns aliases from either database.The tns
alias for oracle 7 is available in tnsnames.ora file of oracle9i and
tns alias for oracle 9i is available in tnsnames.ora file of oracle 7.
So there is no connection problem from each other.Connection is
working fine for each other but the problem with database links is
like this
Problem:
when i create database link from oracle9i user or public database link
from oracle9i for oracle7 user like this
SQL ORACLE9I >CREATE DATABASE LINK ORACLE7 CONNECT TO <ORACLE7USER>
IDENTIFIED BY <PASSWORD> USING 'ORACLE7';
OR
SQL ORACLE9I >CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK ORACLE7 CONNECT TO <ORACLE7USER>
IDENTIFIED BY <PASSWORD> USING 'ORACLE7';
The links get created sucessfully but when i write command like
SQL ORACLE9I> DESC <ORACLE7USER_NAME>.<ORACLE7USER_TABLENAME>@ORACLE7
I RECEIVE A ORACLE ERROR LIKE
ORA-12663 SERVICE REQUIRED BY CLIENT IS NOT AVAILABLE ON THE SERVER.
OR IF MY COMMAND IS LIKE
SQL ORACLE9I> SELECT <FEILD_NAME> FROM
<ORACLE7USER_NAME>.<ORACLE7USER_TABLENAME>@ORACLE7;
I RECEIVE AN ORACLE ERROR LIKE
ORA-01002 FETCH OUT OF SEQUENCE.
ORA-02063: preceding line from ORACLE7
BUT IF I CREATE A LINK FROM ORACLE7 USER FOR ORACLE9I USER
IT WORKS FINE.
PLZ HELP ME WHAT IS THE PROBLEM THAT THE LINK FOR ORACLE 7 IS NOT WORKING WHEN
IT IS BEING CREATED FROM ORACLE9I.
Thank u.

Oracle 9.2.0 does not support connectivity to Oracle 7. The newest version that will support this is 9.0.1.

Database link from Oracle to MySQL with the use of unixODBC

Database link from Oracle to MySQL

I tried and googled an tried again...but I can't get this to work. So if you can spare a moment, please help me out (or try to ;-) ).
Environment:
The Oracle Developer Days Virtual Box image, so that's 11gR2 EE on OEL. MySQL 5.1.51-community + mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.7-0.i386.rpm
1. Created a database called test in MySQL, with a user "oracle" and a password "123".
2. Created the file /home/oracle/.odbc.ini with as contents:
[ODBC Data Sources]
myodbc5 = MySQL ODBC 5.1.7 Driver DSN
[myodbc5]
DRIVER      = /usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so
DESCRIPTION = MySQL ODBC 5.1.7 Driver DSN
SERVER      = 127.0.0.1
PORT        = 3306
USER        = oracle
PASSWORD    = 123
DATABASE    = test
CHARSET     = latin13. Created the file /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/hs/admin/initmyodbc5.ora
# HS init parameters
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=myodbc5
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL=DEBUG
HS_FDS_SHAREABLE_NAME=/usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so
HS_LANGUAGE=AMERICAN.AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P15
HS_FDS_SUPPORT_STATISTICS=FALSE
# HS_NLS_NCHAR=AL32UTF8
# ODBC specific environment variables
set ODBCINI=/home/oracle/.odbc.ini
set ODBCINSTINI=/home/oracle/.odbc.ini
set LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/hs/lib:/usr/lib
# Environment variables required for the non-Oracle system
set HOME=/home/oracle4. Added to tnsnames.ora :
dg4odbc =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
       (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID=myodbc5))
    (HS=OK)
)5. Added to listener.ora (and restarted it) :
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
    (SID_DESC =
      (ORACLE_HOME = /home/oracle/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
      (SID_NAME = myodbc5)
      (PROGRAM = dg4odbc)
      (ENVS ="LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:$ORACLE_HOME/hs/lib:/usr/lib:/lib")
)6. Ran some tests:
a. isql dg4odbc -> Connected!
b. tnsping dg4odbc -> OK
c. lsnrctl status -> Service "myodbc5" has 1 instance(s). Instance "myodbc5", status UNKNOWN, has 1 handler(s) for this service...
d. in SQLPLUS (as system): create public database link mysql connect to "oracle" identified by "123" using 'dg4odbc';
e. select * from test@mysql ("test" is a simple table I created in the MySQL DB) returns
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
ORA-02063: preceding line from MYSQL
When I look in the trace file (in $ORACLE_HOME/hs/log) I see at the bottom of the file:
HOSGIP for "HS_FDS_SHAREABLE_NAME" returned "/usr/lib/libmyodbc5.so"

Some addtional tests I ran:
dltest /usr/local/lib/libodbc.so returns SUCCESS: Loaded /usr/local/lib/libodbc.so
ldd /usr/local/lib/libodbc.so returns
linux-gate.so.1 => (0x00a44000)
libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00a22000)
libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x00110000)
libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x005b1000)
/lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00736000)
So it can find and load the necessary libraries (afaik)..
So any ideas left??

Create a database link to access SqlServer 2005 view from oracle 11gr2

Hi All,
Greetings for the day.
Though I have seen quite a few posts but just wanted to cross-verfiy and double check hence posting.
Oracle Database : 11gr2
OS :SOLARIS SPARC 64 Bit
SQL Server Database : Sql Server 2005
OS : Windows 2003 32 Bit
The requirement is to access a view residing in the SQL Server 2005 Database using the Oracle Database. This involves creation of a Database link in the Oracle Database to access the SQL Server.
Can you suggest which approach should i follow ( I am able to understand that both do the same job ):
How to Configure DG4MSQL (Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server) 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX,HP-UX) post install [ID 562509.1]or
How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install [ID 561033.1]Will they do the same job ? And can they be used on any OS and version of the SQL Server Database as version information for SQL Server is not specified anywhere?
Please let me know so that I can it forward with Business for approvals and budgetting.
Regards
KK

Answer on the website:
You seem to be using the Gateway for MySQL set-up rather than the Heterogeneous Gateway (for ODBC connections). Here is an overview of the process
On SQL Server create a database user and give it read access to the database/tables you want to read via the Oracle database link.
In the gateway home each SQL Server database you want to access should have an init.ora located in $OH/dg4msql/admin in the form initsid.ora where sid is the name of the database to be used in the link (e.g. initbob.ora), so create one
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=msserver1:1234//Example_Database
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL=OFF
HS_FDS_RECOVERY_ACCOUNT=RECOVER
HS_FDS_RECOVERY_PWD=RECOVER
HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL=READ_ONLY
You must now add the new sid to the listener.ora in the gateway home using an additional SID_DESC section inside the existing SID_LIST, for example
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME=bob)
(ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0)
(ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0/dg4msql/driver/lib;/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0/lib)
(PROGRAM=dg4msql)
You should now stop and restart the gateway listener so that the new sid becomes active. NB a reload is not enough.
You must now add the new sid in the tnsnames.ora file for the listener of each database in which you will create a link. You don't need to do this in the gateway home unless it is also a database home in which you will create a database link.
bob =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = severname.example.com)(PORT = 1690))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = bob))
(HS = OK)
NB: The host and port are for the gateway not for the SQL Server database
In each database that requires a link to the MS-SQL database you should create a database link to your new gateway sid.
CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK bob
CONNECT TO "ms_user" IDENTIFIED BY "ms-passwd" USING 'bob';
where ms-user and ms-password are the SQL Server user you created right at the start.
Now you can test the new database link
SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "Table_Name"@bob;
Once you have this working you can alter the initsid.ora file to add parameters to suit your connection. If you do it this way you can easily add and manage many different databases via the gateway.

ORACLE 11g + PHP5 problem: "fetch out of sequence" on remote database link

Hi!
I have a new server with oracle 11g (11.1.0.7) database and apache/php5 (actual build) on linux.
connection type is dedicated.
when doing a connection to a remote AS/400 database I always get this error:
"Warning: oci_fetch_array() http://function.oci-fetch-array: ORA-01002: fetch out of sequence ORA-02063: preceding line from..."
when doing the same simple "select * from database link" at my old server with oracle 9i and apache/php5 no problem occurrs.
this happens at AS/400 database link only. normal oracle database links work fine.
Anyone an idea how to solve this problem or where the problem is????
further info:
when doing " select * from [ database link ] where rownum < 11 " it works, but when doing the query with more than 10 results I get the error. Any idea?
bye,
Oliver

well a fetch out of sequence usually indicates that a cursor has been closed before the process has finished fetching or some such thing.
I'm not aware of there being a specific problem with the situation you outline, but maybe if you could provide all the connection setup and how you are trying to connect that may give a better idea.
Also, you may be better asking on the General Database Discussions forum as this isn't really a SQL or PL/SQL problem

Database link from Oracle 11g (64 bit) to MySQL over UnixODBC with dg4odbc

Hello,
I want to connect to a MySQL Database from Oracle over a database link, but i get always the Error Message ORA-28528: Heterogeneous Services datatype conversion error .
In the forum or internet I can't find a solution for my problem, so I try now to post this problem.
Here a detailed description of the problem:
I use a Oracle 11.1.0.7.0 64bit database which is running on a redhat linux 5.3 64bit.
I want to connect to a MySql Database 5.0, which is running on a redhat linux 5.2 32bit over unixODBC.
The configuration from the ODBC seems to be good, because with isql on the ora server I can connect and query all data correct from the MySQL database.
Also the tsnnames.ora and listener.ora should be configured correctly. The tnsping works also fine.
But when i try to catch the data over SQLPlus with the database link I always get the error ORA-28528.
If I try to select just one column it works, but the returned data are incomplete or truncated.
the version of my libs:
between mysql and odbc I use libmyodbc3.so version 3.51.12-2.2 (I also tried the version 5, but with them I get a segmentation fault error on isql).
between odbc and dg4odbc I use libodbc.so version 2.2.11-7.1
Has anybody a solution or hint for me?
Many Thanks in advance,
best regards from Austria
