Oracle and VBA connection String

hai all, i'll try to make connection between VBA and oracle 10g XE. this is my code.
Dim strConnection, conn, rs
Dim strSQL As String
Set strConnection = New Connection
Set conn = New ADODB.Connection
Set rs = New recordset
strConnection = "Provider=OraOLEDB.oracle;Data Source=192.168.1.234:1521:xe;User Id=viola-0.5.0;Password=123456;"
Set conn.strConnection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.open strConnection
Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.recordset")
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM AIRLINES"
rs.open strSQL, conn, 3, 3
rs.MoveFirst
While Not rs.EOF
RSWApp.WriteToLog rs("ID"), rs("CODE"), rs("NAME")
rs.MoveNext
Wend
DODB.Connection")
rs.Close
conn.Close
Set conn = Nothing
Set rs = Nothing
End Sub
the error found is object required (i have install my Ms. ActiveX 2.5 library).
need help... thanks advance.

  • I run Dev 6i on Windows 2008 R2 64-bit,the forms are working fine after connection to the database but the reports continue to request for username, password and database connection string every time i try to open a report.

    I receive REP-0501: Unable to connect to specified database. I run developer 6i application on windows 2008 r2. I have applied the nn60.dll and nnb60.dll files to the \BIN directory. The forms are working fine. The reports will only display after the correct user id (username, password and database connection string) is supplied. This is happening to all attempts to open already complied form. Pls, help.

    If you are connecting to an Oracle 11g database, remember that by default the passwords are case sensitive. To disable that, run

  • Oracle 8i/9i connection string?

    We have two computers:
    Computer X:
    Windows 2000 Advanced Server
    Oracle 9i (9.2.0.1)
    DHCP IP address: 10.140.4.74
    Oracle SID: XXX

    Oracle 8i (8.1.7)
    IP address static: 10.140.2.4
    Oracle SID: YYY
    Computer name: YYY
    On client computer we install Oracle 6i Runtime and we make one connection string to Oracle 9i database. Connection String XXX TCP/IP 10.140.4.74 and SID XXX. (Others connection strings thru Oracle Net8 Easy config is deleted.)
    When we start SQL*Plus from client computer and If we enter scott/tiger@YYY Sql*plus will connect to Oracle 8i database?
    If we create form and in ON-LOGON trigger we put
    logon('scott/tiger@YYY'); Form will be connected to Oracle 8i database? But there is NO connection string YYY on client computer?
    Also if we connect thru SQL*Plus on Oracle 9i server to Oracle 9i database and then we try to reconnect to Oracle 8i database with "conn scott/tiger@YYY" it will reconnect to Oracle 8i database.
    How it is possible that we can connect to Oracle 8i database without defined connection string from the client computer or from Oracle 9i server?

  • SSIS and the FOREACH LOOP and no Connection String Property

    Hello!
    I am tryng to set up a Foreach Loop. I have everything configured properly but the Expression Property does not have Connection String in it as is shown in several examples. Anyone have any suggestions?
    Thanks
    Mike
    Mike Kiser

    Mike,
    I think you are confusing Flat file connection manager's conn string property with for each loop (FELC). As Arthur said, FELC doesn't have any conn strings !!!. As per xample, you have to got to properties of the flat file conn manager (highlight FF conn
    manager and press F4). Then hit eliipses and there you'll see connecting string property in dropdown. This is explained in the link you are seeing !!!!
    Thanks, hsbal

  • Server Issue with Oracle and ASP Connection

    We got a new server and are trying to set it up with Oracle Client to allow our web application to connect to the database server. We are getting connection errors, but on the old server, it works fine. We have Windows 2003 and IIS 6.0 on the new server and Win2K and IIS 5.0 on the old server and it's Oracle 8i. Here is the error...
    Err.description=Oracle client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 or later client software installation. Provider is unable to function until these components are installed.
    Err.number=-2147467259
    ... We have the client installed, so not sure what to do from this point on. Can it be some type of a sharing issue, or network firewall issue?

    Have you granted the IIS user read & execute access to the %ORACLE_HOME% directory and subdirectories?

  • Using variable in connection string returns 0 for variable.

    hi all- I am pulling data from a visual forxpro database and the connection string is as follows: 
    Data Source=\\ServerName\FolderName\AR;User ID=Domain\svcAct;Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;
    I created a variable called CurrentARPath and stored the path
    \\ServerName\FolderName\AR
    I then tried using this variable in the Expression property of the connection string as follows:
    "Data Source="+(DT_WSTR, 20)@[User::CurrentARPath] + ";User ID=Domain\\svcAct;Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;"
    However, the above expression is evaluating the variable to 0 as shown below; this is causing the connection in connection manager to go down(offline) and the OLED data source is complaining.
    Data Source=0;User ID=Domain\svcAct;Provider=VFPOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;
    any idea what i am doing wrong here? thanks in advance!

    What datatype is CurrentARPath? Are there any
    configurations on the connection string or variable?
    Which
    package protection level are you using?
    CurrentARPath data type - Char
    there are no configurations on the connection string. one thing that i should mention is that i have created a variable  called ArPath of type object and using it in the for each loop container. this variable gets populated using an execute SQL statement.
    i am then mapping the vale from ArPath to CurrentARPath in the loop container.
    Package protection level is default(encrypt sensitive)
    thanks for the help.

  • File connection and database connection as a parameter

    hi
    i am using ssis 2012, now i want all my  connection ,database and file connection as a parameter.
    how to do it

    Hi coool_sweet,
    If I understand correctly, you want to use a parameter to control the connection string of flat file or database.
    If in this scenario, we can add two parameters in the package with appropriate values, like the connection string of flat file and the connection string of database. Then use an expression with the parameter value to control the ConnectionString property
    of Flat File Connection Manager and the ConnectionString property of OLE DB Connection Manger. The following screenshot is for your reference:
    Besides, as Arthur said above, if you want to change the ConnectionString property of Flat File Connection Manager and the ConnectionString property of OLE DB Connection Manger via changing parameter values after deploying the package to SSISDB, there is no
    need to do this. Because we can also change the connection manager properties in the Configure dialog box as below:

  • How do I set miminum # of connections for pool with Oracle and Tomcat?

    Hi,
    I can't seem to find any attribute to initialize the number of connections for my connection pool. Here is my current context.xml file under my /App1 directory:
    <Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
    debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
    <Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
    type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
    driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"
    factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
    url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
    user="app1" password="app1" />
    </Context>
    I've been googling and reading forums, but haven't found a way to establish the minimum number of connections. I've tried all sorts of parameters like InitialLimit, MinLimit, MinActive, etc, with no success.
    Here is some sample code that I am testing:
    package web;
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
    import javax.naming.*;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    import java.sql.ResultSet;
    import java.sql.Statement;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class ConnectionPool {
    String message = "Not Connected";
    public void init() {
    OracleConnection conn = null;
    ResultSet rst = null;
    Statement stmt = null;
    try {
    Context initContext = new InitialContext();
    Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
    OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
    message = "Here.";
         String user = ds.getUser();
    if (envContext == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
    if (ds == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
    if (ds != null) {
    message = "Trying to connect...";
    conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
    Properties prop = new Properties();
    prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xxx");
    if (conn != null) {
    message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
              conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
    stmt = conn.createStatement();
    rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT username, server from v$session where username is not null");
    while (rst.next()) {
    message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; Server: " + rst.getString(2);
    rst.close();
    rst = null;
    stmt.close();
    stmt = null;
    conn.close(); // Return to connection pool
    conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
    // Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
    // and the connection is returned to the pool
    if (rst != null) {
    try {
    rst.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    rst = null;
    if (stmt != null) {
    try {
    stmt.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    stmt = null;
    if (conn != null) {
    try {
    conn.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    conn = null;
    public String getMessage() {
    return message;
    I'm using a utility to repeatedly call a JSP page that uses this class and displays the message variable. This utility allows me to specify the number of concurrent web requests and an overall number of requests to try. While that is running, I look at V$SESSION in Oracle and occassionaly, I will see a brief entry for app1 or adavey depending on the timing of my query and how far along the code has processed in this example. So it seems that I am only using one connection at a time and not a true connection pool.
    Is it possible that I need to use the oci driver instead of the thin driver? I've looked at the javadoc for oci and the OCIConnectionPool has a setPoolConfig method to set initial, min and max connections. However, it appears that this can only be set via Java code and not as a parameter in my context.xml resource file. If I have to set it each time I get a database connection, it seems like it sort of defeats the purpose of having Tomcat maintain the connection pool for me and that I need to implement my own connection pool. I'm a newbie to this technology so I really don't want to go this route.
    Any advice on setting up a proper connection pool that works with Tomcat and Oracle proxy sessions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Alan

    Well I did some more experiments and I am able to at least create a connection pool within my example code:
    package web;
    import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
    import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
    import javax.naming.*;
    import java.sql.SQLException;
    import java.sql.ResultSet;
    import java.sql.Statement;
    import java.util.Properties;
    public class ConnectionPool {
    String message = "Not Connected";
    public void init() {
    OracleConnection conn = null;
    ResultSet rst = null;
    Statement stmt = null;
    try {
    Context initContext = new InitialContext();
    Context envContext = (Context) initContext.lookup("java:/comp/env");
    OracleDataSource ds = (OracleDataSource) envContext.lookup("App1ConnectionPool");
    message = "Here.";
         String user = ds.getUser();
    if (envContext == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No Context");
    if (ds == null)
    throw new Exception("Error: No DataSource");
    if (ds != null) {
    message = "Trying to connect...";
    boolean cache_enabled = ds.getConnectionCachingEnabled();
    if (!cache_enabled){
    ds.setConnectionCachingEnabled(true);
    Properties cacheProps = new Properties();
    cacheProps.put("InitialLimit","5");
         cacheProps.put("MinLimit","5");
    cacheProps.put("MaxLimit","10");
    ds.setConnectionCacheProperties(cacheProps);
              conn = (OracleConnection) ds.getConnection();
    Properties prop = new Properties();
    prop.put("PROXY_USER_NAME", "adavey/xyz");
    if (conn != null) {
    message = "Got Connection " + conn.toString() + ", ";
              conn.openProxySession(OracleConnection.PROXYTYPE_USER_NAME,prop);
    stmt = conn.createStatement();
    //rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT 'Success obtaining connection' FROM DUAL");
    rst = stmt.executeQuery("SELECT user, SYS_CONTEXT ('USERENV', 'SESSION_USER') from dual");
    while (rst.next()) {
    message = "DS User: " + user + "; DB User: " + rst.getString(1) + "; sys_context: " + rst.getString(2);
    message += "; Was cache enabled?: " + cache_enabled;
    rst.close();
    rst = null;
    stmt.close();
    stmt = null;
    conn.close(OracleConnection.PROXY_SESSION); // Return to connection pool
    conn = null; // Make sure we don't close it twice
    } catch (Exception e) {
    e.printStackTrace();
    } finally {
    // Always make sure result sets and statements are closed,
    // and the connection is returned to the pool
    if (rst != null) {
    try {
    rst.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    rst = null;
    if (stmt != null) {
    try {
    stmt.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    stmt = null;
    if (conn != null) {
    try {
    conn.close();
    } catch (SQLException e) {
    conn = null;
    public String getMessage() {
    return message;
    In my context.xml file, I tried to specify the same Connection Cache Properties as attributes, but no luck:
    <Context path="/App1" docBase="App1"
    debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
    <Resource name="App1ConnectionPool" auth="Container"
    type="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource"
    driverClassName="oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver"
    factory="oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSourceFactory"
    url="jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:oddjob"
    user="app1" password="app1"
    ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" MinLimit="5" MaxLimit="20"/>
    </Context>
    These attributes seemed to have no effect:
    ConnectionCachingEnabled="1" ; also tried "true"
    MinLimit="5"
    MaxLimit="20"
    So basically if I could find some way to get these attributes set within the context.xml file instead of my code, I would be a happy developer :-)
    Oh well, it's almost Miller time here on the east coast. Maybe a few beers will help me find the solution I'm looking for.

  • How to specifiy the provider to be Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client when creating a dynamic connection string with EF Code First from Database?

    I am trying to use the relatively new Code First from Database with the newest EF (6.x) and on an Oracle database (11g, but I have installed the newest ODTwithODAC). First of all, it works fine as long as the connection string is inside the App.Config file. But when I try to build it dynamically in the C# code (or rather, statically at the moment) it fails. I have it working with a dynamically built connection string when doing Model from Database though, so I'm at a loss right now.
    First, I have created a second constructor for the context class that takes a string and does base(connectionString). Then I build the connection string via
    OracleConnectionStringBuilder oracleBuilder = new OracleConnectionStringBuilder();
    oracleBuilder.DataSource = "TEST.BLA.COM";
    oracleBuilder.UserID = "ABC";
    oracleBuilder.Password = "abc";
    oracleBuilder.PersistSecurityInfo = true;
    string connection = oracleBuilder.ToStrin();
    Now trying to open an EntityConnection by giving to it this provider-specific connection string (or even the static one from the App.Config) doesn't work; I get "keyword not supported: user id"). Trying it by creating a context and giving this connection string doesn't work either. I'm pretty sure that this is because I didn't specify the provider to use; after all, it should use the Oracle.ManagedDataAccess.Client provider and not an SQL Server based one.
    I then tried to get around this by using an EntityConnectionStringBuilder on top and specifying the provider keyword there, but then I get "keyword not supported: provider" when using it in the context constructor, and "the 'metadata' keyword is always required" when using it with the EntityConnection constructor.
    As I said above: I bet it's the provider that I have to specify somehow, but I don't know how. The code that does work is the following:
    using (var context = new Model())
    context.Database.Connection.Open();
    context.Database.Connection.Close();
    When I read context.Database.Connection.ConnectionString, it is exactly the provider-specific connection string I created above, but I don't know where to specify the provider again. Do you know of any way to do this? Certainly there must be one.
    PS: I have also posted this question on http://stackoverflow.com/questions/27979454/ef-code-first-from-database-with-managed-oracle-data-access-dynamic-connection because it is quite urgent and I'd like to use Code First from Database. Otherwise I'd have to go "back" to using Model from Database again, which is not ideal because we have updatable views where the .edmx-file has to be edited after every reload of the model, while with Code First from DB inserting into the view automatically works.

  • Query based on Oracle and MS Access connections

    I hope this is in the correct spot.
    I am using Oracle SQL Developer to extract data from some Read Only tables in Oracle.
    What I would like to do it have a list of numbers in a MS Access database to select the same number from Oracle tables, then export the data out to Access or Excel. There may be several thousand numbers at a time.
    I asked if they would give me one table with one column in Oracle I could read/write to but the answer was no.
    I have my connection strings working to both the Oracle tables and to the Access database but i can not figure out how to build a query using both tables.
    If I build a query to the Access table can I use that query somehow in the query of the Oracle table?
    Thanks
    Steve

    Not real sure if this is doable or would help, but perhaps you can load the access table into an Oracle Global Temporary Table? See http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/8i/TemporaryTables.php (and google on it). I think I'm assuming your 11 hour query had something to do with shovelling a bucketload of data to the access side, perhaps if you could show us the plan on the Oracle side that access was generating to get the Oracle data there might be a different answer.
    Oftentimes cross-db tools won't use Oracle features like analytics, or do slow-by-slow row processing where a short procedure could do things within the Oracle sql engine and return data in larger arrays.
    Sometimes mass data cleansings benefit from using server side tools outside of the db. Do you have the data from before it was loaded to Oracle? What Oracle platform are you on?

    you may need to use such as System or Sys will use the password
    given when you installed the database, or whatever passowrd you
    changed it to since.
    The Installation Guide is available as part of the download, or from
    your Windows Start Menu once the Designer client tools are installed
    or from the Designer Documentation page here on OTN.
    Hope this helps. Regards,

  • Trying to change the Release/Debug connection string (ORACLE) of a VS13 Lightswitch project. Getting ORA-00942 error...

    Hello,
    i try to change the connection string of a Lightswitch 2013 project. I have a database for developers and a 'productive' database for releases. Both are similar (table names, entries etc..) and they are from ORACLE. First i attached the developer database
    as an external source. Everything works fine. Now I'm trying to change the connection string  whether my application is in a release state or in a developer state.
    I found a hint in the following question to solve that issue: Question
    from a LS-User 
    It is possible to change the connection string during the runtime. I tried it out and added to my DataBaseService.lsml.cs:
    partial void DataBase_InitializingConnection(DatabaseConnectionState state)
    state.ConnectionString = "DATA SOURCE=DB.productive;PASSWORD=password;PERSIST SECURITY INFO=True;USER ID=USER_PROD";
    Well, Lightswitch is using the new connection. But when i run the application, i am getting the error "ORA-00942: table or view does not exist". The views and tables definitely exist. The two schemas are the same. So what am i doing wrong?
    Regards from Munich

    HI Munich,
    Welcome to Lightswitch forum.
    According to your description above, you want to connect to external datasource in Lightswitch application.
    Oracle is not a supported data source for LightSwitch, it's recommended to use SQL Server database.
    If you want to change the connection string, you can update the connection string for a data source using the data source wizard. For example in VS2013: 
    Please let me know if there is anything that I can do to help.
    Best regards,
    Angie

  • Need PL/SQL Code to get Oracle connection string

    Hi
    Could you please give any solution to below requirement?
    Requirement :
    I have an existing pl/sql program (Registered as concurrent Program) in which i am calling a "C" Program. The "C" program expects a parameter to pass the value of oracle connection string (userid/pwd@instance). The C Program takes the connection string to connect to oracle and manipulate data.
    Question. How will I get Oracle userid,pwd and connection string being in PL/SQL Session so that it will run for every instance i move the code in.
    Note :
    1.) We have limitations to call another concurrent program to fetch these data.
    2.) We cannot hard code the value in the program because of compliance issue.
    Any example of code will help.
    Thanks in Advance.
    Cheers
    Samar

  • Oracle connection string - jdbc format

    I'm having issues connecting to an Oracle database from asp.net (C#) - Visual Studio 2013.
    I've installed odp.net and in my project I see references for System.Data.OracleClient (Framework tab) and Oracle.DataAccess and Oracle.Web (Extensions tab).
    Tried all of those, but getting a problem with the connection string.
    Our dbas have given us only one format of connection string that will work, listed below:
    jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldap://oid.inf.mycompany.com:3060/myserviceName1,cn=OracleContext,dc=ute,dc=mycompanyname,dc=com
    This works fine for developers who use Weblogic, but I can't get this to work with C#.
    I put the above value in web.config and use the below code:
    using System.Data.OracleClient;
    //using Oracle.DataAccess.Client;
                    using (OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection())
                        try
                            conn.ConnectionString = Properties.Settings.Default.sqlConnStr;
                            //SqlCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
                            OracleCommand cmd = conn.CreateCommand();
                            cmd.CommandText = Properties.Settings.Default.sqlQuery1;
                            cmd.CommandType = System.Data.CommandType.Text;
                            //cmd.CommandTimeout = 10;
                            conn.Open();
                            log.Info("Getting local users from db");
                            //SqlDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                            OracleDataReader dr = cmd.ExecuteReader();
                            while (dr.Read())
    using this, I get errors like below:
    System.Data.OracleClient.OracleException: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    at:
    conn.Open();
    another error seen below:
    System.ArgumentException: Keyword not supported: 'jdbc:oracle:thin:@ldap://oid.inf.mycompany.com:3060/myserviceName1,cn'.
    at: 
    conn.ConnectionString = Properties.Settings.Default.sqlConnStr;
    Even if these errors can be resolved, how would I specify a user id and password for this format of connection string?
    Thanks for any help you can provide,

    Hello simplify,
    For issues regarding Oracle, I would suggest that you could post it to the Oracle forum:
