Oracle 9i Lite to Oracle 8i master, & Apache on HP

1. Are there any replication issues or limitations when using 9i lite clients against an 8.1.7 master?
2. In the system requirements, it lists having Apache for NT or OAS9i as requirements. Are these set in stone, or supported versions? We run Apache on HP UNIX. Is that an issue?
For both, the app being designed is a PC laptop JAVA solution using JDBC to the local 9i lite client replicating asynchonously to an 8.1.7 master.
Thanks,
Tom 1) Make sure your jdk is at 1.3 on the mobile server if using Oracle mid-tier. Otherwise no show-stoppers.
2) 9i Lite Mobile Server will run using Apache but has 'issues' in doing so. We have had success installing Mobile Server (Apache wrapped in Oracle) in standalone configuration (no plug-ins and no configuration required).
3) PC -> java (jdbc) -> 9i Lite client SYNC'd to 8.1.7 has worked for me on many occasions.

Oracle 10g lite and Oracle 8i compatibility

I have a series of Oracle 8.1.7.4 database servers running on Unix platforms scattered around the globe that use multi-master replication for synchronization. I need to populate approximately 500 Windows 2000 deployable systems that will operate in austere communication environments. These remote systems will need to be kept synchronized with the primary servers. I have no choice but to keep Oracle 8.i on the primary servers but have some flexibility in deploying a more current version on the PCs. Are there interoperability problems between Oracle 8.i and 10g Oracle Database Lite?

After having wasted 2 days trying to get Oracle Lite 10g Release 2 (10.0.1.2)working with Oracle RDBMS 1.8.7.4 (running on VMS) we failed. We had to downgrade to OLITE 10g R1 (10.0.0.) that evntually worked in combination with 8.1.7.4. We also found out that Oracle Lite Mobile Server repository should reside on the same Oracle instance as the back-end database.

Problem connecting Oracle 9i Lite to Oracle 9i Database

Hi,
I have just started working with Oracle 9i Lite and I am having
problems connecting to an Oracle 9i (9.0.1) database using the
packaging wizard. I can connect ok using SQL*Plus but when I connect
using this wizard the database is located i.e. no errors arise, but
the database schemas and tables are not found i.e. list is not
popluated.
However if I try to connect to an Oracle 8i (8.1.7) database there is
no problem and the schemas and tables are found with the list being
popluated.
Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Regards
Andrew.

I am having a similar problem, where I couldn't connect to Oracle 8i database (817). I am getting a error message when I tried to use Packaging Wizard -> Snapshot -> Import -> Username/password and jdbc:oracle:oci8:@connect string or jdbc:oracle:thin:@host:1521:Sid
The error message is 'No Suitable Driver. Make Sure the Proper JDBC drive for "jdbc:oracle:oci8i:@<connect string>" is in the classpath"
I would appricated if someone can send me any help on this.
My email address is [email protected]
Thanks

Any difference in the dbms and jdbc drivers btw oracle 8i lite and 9i lite

Is there any significant difference between oracle 8i lite and oracle 9i lite in terms of database and jdbc drivers?
If not, it may be better off using oracle8i.

According to Oracle , 9i lite is more powerful than 8i Lite.
one thing, 8i Lite is not certified for windows 2000.

1)Oracle 8i lite
2)Oracle 8i lite
3)Web to go
4)Synchronization server for handheld
the first two products i was able to install sucessfully but the 3rd and the 4th one i.e.
Web to go and Synchronization server for handheld i was not able to install because the installation opens a DOS console and asks for username and password.i have tried giving all the possible combinations of username and password possible but nothing has worked out yet.please suggest me a solution for the oproblem as soon as possible.
thanks

What kind of webtogo do you try to install?
Have you installed a jre 1.1.8 or plus?
Is your database started?
If yes, you try to put system and system 's password.

Oracle 9i Lite Installation Problems

Hello, I'm installing Oracle 9i Lite Version over Windows XP. When I'm connecting the mobile server (like an apache server's module) to the repository, I write in my browser:
"http://<mobile_server_name>:<port_number>/webtogo/startup"
and the response of the browser is: "The requested URL was not found on this server". Someone knows, what's the problem?. What's the mobile server name and its port number?.
Thank you.

Jorge,
You can check the tnsnames.ora file for the Mobile Server name and port number. Once you find the correct server and port information, please point your browser to:
http://<Mobile Server>:<port>/webtogo
for the Web-to-Go home or
http://<Mobile Server>:<port>/webtogo/setup
for the client download page.
Please let me know if you have additional questions.

Oracle 8i lite:AQ-lite

We are using the master-client queue configuration for the transfer of messages from the client queue(Oracle 8i Lite) to the master queue(Oracle 8i Server).
The queue(master) was created on the 8i server which was then deployed to the client(8i lite) and both share the same name.We enqueued the messages from the client and enabled propogation to the server(through AQLitePropagator).We are unable to dequeue messages from the server.Could somebody getback on this imm.Thanks!

Hi,
I am qouting below from the oracle 8i Lite documentation which says it supports triggers . Please clarify.

Documentation for Oracle 10g Lite

Hello
I have docummnetation for oracle 10g Lite but there is only informations what to do step by step. I'm looking generally informations about the features mobile databases, synchronization system, managment, and all development support. Where can I find them??

I run Oracle Lite on Pocket PC, and I make some simple program which did some operations on database. I know that the support for .NET is small. But I'm writing the master of science work about three mobile databases (sql ce, oracle lite and sybase) and I have to write a program which will be testing performance of those databases on the mobile device.
Generally I hope this program will work ok. But I also have to write about fuures for example oracle database lite RDBMS, but in documentation there is only few generally informations and almost all document is about how to configure it and how to do something.
So if you have some generally documents (I have those white papers and other pfd on oracle site) please send it to me [email protected] .

How do I create a db in Oracle 9i Lite?

I have used Oracle 8i Lite on handheld computers in a replicated environment for quite some time now. I am in the middle of setting up a demo tablet computer, but since Oracle 8i Lite is no longer downloadable from the Oracle website, I instead downloaded 9iLite. When I went to install it, my options were Mobile Server and Mobile Development Kit. I went ahead and followed the install wizard without choosing either one of these two options, thinking I would just get the plain Oracle Lite database environment. After the install completed successfully, I went to look for Oracle Navigator and where the Polite.odb was located, but no where do these two items seem to be installed (or copied to).
Somewhere in this forum, a person posted that 9iLite needs 8iLite to be installed already in order to use the basic database functionality. Is this the case? Is there anyway to create a database using my create table script for all the tables in my db. I could see that SQL Plus is installed, which is the app I used to run the script in 8iLite.... but you already need a database to log into in order to run SQL Plus.
How do I create a database in Oracle 9iLite.
Your help is greatly appreciated.
PS: I am somewhat in a hurry, since my demo unit needs to be done by the end of the weekend..... I really did not anticipate this trouble with 9iLite.

Sure but you break the license, or forgive me and a did a mistake

Oracle 8i Lite - OO4O and other Questions

1.) Can OO4O (Oracle Objects for OLE) be used with the Oracle 8i Lite database ?
2.) Does Oracle 8i Lite operate as a "client/server" database ?
3.) Is it possible to have multi-user access to Oracle 8i Lite ?
4.) Is there documentation somewhere that lists all of the limitations with 8i Lite as compared to 8i ?
We are in the planning stages of a partial mobile system, and want to know how much difference in development efforts for the 2 platforms (Oracle 8i on Win 2000 server and Oracle 8i Lite on NT/98/95 Laptops).
Any information on Oracle 8i Lite would be appreciated. -- Especially need an answer to question 1 right now.
Thanks,
Paula

Error while installing Oracle Database Lite 10.2.0.1.1 for Win

Hello,
I am trying to install Oracle Database Lite 10.2.0.1.1 on Windows XP. I am going according screens on this page:

Thanks for hint

Hi,
I have the same problem but, how can i know what my SID is ? i am trying with "ORCL" and it doesnt work.
Do you know in which file i can get it ? in the documentation of the installation i found this:
"If you are not sure of the values to enter for the URL, then you can query the data dictionary to obtain these values.
Connect as SYSTEM and run the following queries.
To retrieve the SID, execute: select instance_name from v$instance;
If you need to retrieve the port number, check the listener.ora file on the
back-end database."
But how can i query the database if i have not finished to install it yet and where is located the listener.ora file ?
I hope you can help me.
Thank you.

XML and Oracle 8i Lite

Hi Wizards
I'm in an endeavour to do the following things -
1.Generate XML output from Oracle 8i Lite database
2.Modify the XML and update the database taking the modified XML.
My java platform is JDK 1.2. I've used the XML SQL Utility for Java, and in doing so i've been successful with the 1st step. I've used the Oracle 8.1.6SDK JDBC Driver which is compatible with JDK 2.The code fragment is like the following -
import java.io.*;
import java.sql.*;
import java.math.*;
import oracle.xml.sql.query.*;
import oracle.jdbc.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
public class orasql1
public static void main(String args[]) throws SQLException
Connection conn = null;
String tabName = "emp";
try {
Class.forName("oracle.lite.poljdbc.POLJDBCDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:Polite:POlite", "SYSTEM", "manager");
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Oracle Connection error\t:");
System.out.println(e);
System.exit(0);
OracleXMLQuery qry = new OracleXMLQuery(conn, "select * from " + tabName);
qry.setRowsetTag("SCHEMADOC_1");
qry.setRowTag("EMPLOYEE");
qry.setStyleSheet("emp.xsl");
String xmlString = qry.getXMLString(true);
conn.close();
try {
File output = new File("emp.xml");
FileWriter xmlFile = new FileWriter(output);
xmlFile.write(xmlString,0,xmlString.length());
xmlFile.close();
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("Output file error\t:");
System.out.println(e);
System.exit(0);
I am putting some sample code for step 2 in the following section -
import oracle.xml.sql.dml.*;
import java.sql.*;
import oracle.jdbc.driver.*;
import oracle.jdbc.*;
import java.net.*;
public class orasql2
public static void main(String args[]) throws SQLException
Connection conn = null;
String tabName = "emp";
String fileName = "emp.xml";
try {
Class.forName("oracle.lite.poljdbc.POLJDBCDriver");
conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:Polite:POlite", "SYSTEM", "manager");
catch (Exception e) {
System.out.println("An error has occurred.");
System.out.println("Please check your CLASSPATH variable..");
System.out.println(e);
System.exit(0);
OracleXMLSave save = new OracleXMLSave(conn, tabName);
URL url = save.createURL(fileName);
save.setRowTag("SCHEMADOC_1");
int rowCount = save.insertXML(url);
System.out.println("Successfully inserted "+rowCount+" rows into "+tabName);
conn.close();
Compiling the above code is fine, no errors! But while running the application I get the error -
Exception in thread "main" oracle.xml.sql.OracleXMLSQLException: java.lang.Class
CastException: oracle.lite.poljdbc.OracleStatement
at oracle.xml.sql.dml.OracleXMLSave.insertXML(OracleXMLSave.java:345)
at oracle.xml.sql.dml.OracleXMLSave.insertXML(OracleXMLSave.java:248)
at orasql2.main(orasql2.java:27)
My question is whether this thing can be done at all using Oracle 8i Lite? If so then how?
Waiting for ur advices.

It looks like be a classpath issue. Would you check with the class name.

Branch office installation of Oracle 8i Lite

I have developed a Java application using Oracle 8i Lite. I know, how to extract a required datbase file and supporitng run time files using deploy utility for stand alone machine. Thus, i can zip and send those file by email or thru web server to the client for installation on stand alone machine.
Since we can not use the Web to GO server, we want to send the Branch office database and its run time files (Only required files for running and not for developing) for server as well as for client to work in the LAN in the same manner as how deployed on stand alone machine without sending the Oracle lite CD and without using the Web to GO server.
In short, we want to install the Branch office Database machine files and Branch office client files by sending only required files in email without using web to go server and without sending Oracle lite CD.
Advance thanks for your valuable reply.
Thansk and Best regards

It would help if you told us the exact problem description and ... post in the correct forum. This forum is dedicated to oracle on apple's macosX.
What is the problem ?
