Oracle Client Issu.

Hi All,
I am new in Oracle Database. I had installed oracle client 10g in cloud machine and want to connect to database server. When try to login and password in sqlplus, the sqlplus window close. I may configuration error in tnsnames.ora file. I had also tried tnsping <sid> but error generate TNS-1235 : operation timed out.
can any body help in this regards.
Syed Tayab Shah

Thanks Mr. Kumar,
I had checked my tnsnames.ora file entries is below
E3000 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 61.5.158.130)(PORT = 1533))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = didi)
tnsping command get error message ' TNS-12535 : operation timed out'
When I tried to sqlplus it move me out the sqlplus window. My understanding is that slqplus windows should generate the same error as tnsping command'.
that is why I am worry about sqlplus behavior. I seemed no error entries in tnsnames.ora file.
regards,

Oracle client issue???

Hi!
I try running sqlplus from the client installation but i do not get anything. It hangs endlessly. I have 10.2.0.1 client on RHEL 4 (32-bit).
$$ORACLE_HOME/bin/sqlplus /nolog
where ORACLE_HOME is the client home installation.
Where should i start my investigations.

What about other utilities like exp, sqlldr ?
Might consider do a strace on sqlplus ?

Oracle Client 11gR2 installation issue on RHEL v5.4 64-bit

Hi,
I am trying to install Oracle Client software 11gR2 on RHEL v5.4 64-bit. I have resolved all the libraries dependency as well as Kernel changes as suggested by the installer. The error in the log file is as attached. At present I have "skipped" this error and proceeded with installation.
While installing the client, the installer fails while configuring the Net CA with error:
INFO: Done parsing command line arguments.

Also when I invoke the SQL Client; sqlplus user@db and enter the password, the sqlplus exits without any error and returns to the terminal console. Please note earlier I has getting a SELinux violation and have changed it to "permissive" mode
Please let me know how to resolve NetCA installation and the sqplus issue.
Thanks & regards,
Vinay

Hi,
Thet NetCA error occurs during installation and I believe the installer should take care of the ORACLE_HOME variable setting.
But before invoking sqlplus I have set the ORACLE_HOME and LD_LIBRARY_PATH setting in the .bash_profile as mentioned in the installation guide. The snippet of the profile file is:
export ORACLE_HOME=~/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/client_1
export JAVA_HOME=$ORACLE_HOME/jdk
export PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/bin:$JAVA_HOME/bin:$PATH;
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
export TNS_ADMIN=$ORACLE_HOME/network/admin
export TWO_TASK=mmcoedb
I am able to tnsping to the server/service name too but when I try to login using the user/password using sqlplus, it simply exits without any error.
Please let me know how to resolve the error.
Best regards,
Vinay

Oracle Client 11g R2 sequencing issue with App-V 5.0

Hi All,
Can anyone help on a issue that I face while I try to create the ODBC connection after I have published the sequenced application. I get the error message as shown :
Have already tried sequencing by creating the Dummy ODBC user DSN and system DSN on the base machine before sequencing and have added the TNSNames.ora path as an environment variable.
Thank in advance for your help!Installation of 32 bit and 64 bit 11.2.0.1 Oracle client on windows 7

Akanksha,
If your application is 64-bit, you need only 64-bit Oracle client software which installs 64-bit ODBC.
There is no need to install 32-bit Oracle client.
I am suspecting that some of the required components are missing from your installation.
1)Are you able to connect to the Database using the the sql*plus ?
(You need to open the sql*plus session from the machine where ODBC application is running)
2) Try to run the application as administrator user and see whether it helps.
3)What is the type of client installation which you performed ? (Administrator/Runtime/Custom)
If it is custom type, might be you are missing some components.
Try to install as Administrator and see whether it helps.
Regards,
Ravi

10.2.0.1 is not supported/certified on Win 2008, so expect issues with the install and/or with using the software.
Why cannot you use a supported version - minimum is 10.2.0.4, which is only available to customers with an Extended Support contract

Any compatibility issues for Oracle Client 10.2.0.4.0 and Snow Leopard?

Now that Snow Leopard is out and in fact in my hands, are there any known compatibility issues relative to the Oracle client software that is available from:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10204macsoft.html
Thanks.
BTW, it might be worthwhile to know about the following web site:
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
and for someone from Oracle to post an appropriate listing there as that site is becoming known as a central resource for such queries.
Marc

Guys,
I appreciate all of your replies, but:
1. Just to be clear, I am talking about running the CLIENT (SQL*Plus) on Snow Leopard, which will connect to Oracle 11g, which is running on RHEL 5. I don't care in the least as to whether or not Oracle 11g will run on Snow Leopard. Today, I run the CLIENT on Leopard from the CLI and can connect to 11g on RHEL 5 just fine. I use the Actual Technologies ODBC driver (http://www.actualtechnologies.com/product_oracle.php) for queries in other applications and I have a similar query regarding Snow Leopard compatibility into them.
2. @damorgan: Are you telling me that the client software that I can download from Oracle here:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10204macsoft.html
was written by Oracle and certified by Apple to run on Leopard (10.5)? I am curious, because today, it was Microsoft and not Apple that put forth the statement that Office 2008 is fine on Snow Leopard:
http://www.officeformac.com/blog/Ready-for-Snow-Leopard
Are you suggesting, as a parallel, that Apple did the certification of Office 2008 for Snow Leopard, not Microsoft? Or that Apple and not Cisco, will certify that Cisco's VPN client will work on Snow Leopard?
Thanks,
Marc

Oracle Client Side connectivity issues from a Windows XP Machine

I am sure most of you guys may have addressed this issue of the time delay the client application takes to retrieve the data from the Oracle database. However, here's my problem.
We have installed a VB application running on Windows Xp along with an Oracle 8i client. Now when the application tries to connect to the database at times the data fetching speed is quick and at times its really slow... takes almost 15-20 minutes.. We're not sure if this is an application issue/oracle client configuration issue or a network issue..
We've wasted alot of time blaming the network/connectivity.. However, is there anything that we would need to check at the clients pc.. oracle config etc.etc.. ???
Please help..

Might want to try out a couple of things:
When it's running slow:
1. ping the server to see the response time of the server.
2. check the CPU usage on the server. There could be a resource crunch taking place due to other large and/or multiple transactions going on.
3. kill the VB connection and run the SQL from the command prompt and see how long it takes. Sometimes executing an SQL from the application may take longer, while from the command prompt, it's quicker. In this case, application tuning is required.
4. check to see the CPU and memory usage on the client PC itself. If there are multiple applications in use chewing up these resources, it can and will slow things down on the client PC itself.
Oracle client does not require configuration as such.

FDM 11.1.2.3 issue (32 or 64 Bit Oracle Client) ?

Hi All,
               I have installed FDM 11.1.2.3 under Windows 2008 server using Oracle 11g Database. Its configuration was sucessfull, but I'm not getting create an app and having "connection database" errors. In a previous version (11.1.2.2.) was stated that FDM should use 32-bit Oracle client installed. But at 11.1.2.3 documentation I did not found anything related to this and installed it using 64-Bit Oracle Client.
              Does someone could tell me if FDM 11.1.2.3 requires 32-bit Oracle client installed ?
Thanks

It does still use the 32 bit Oracle CLient.
You would need to test the connection with a 32 bit UDL file (.udl32) and use the following command to test:
1. Create a file to test the 32-bit OLE DB Provider. (Create a new empty file in a easily accessible location with the extension UDL32) a. Launch a command prompt. b. Start notepad and pass in the name of the new file. c:\>start notepad c:\testconn.udl32 c. When prompted to create the file, choose yes then close notepad. 2. Test the 32-bit OLE DB data source using the new file and the following command. a. Launch a command prompt. b. Execute the following command.    c:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\Rundll32.exe "c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\Ole DB\oledb32.dll",OpenDSLFile c:\testconn.udl32 - Note, make sure the command line is something appropriate for your Windows Installation. d. Click the Provider Tab, select OLEDB provider you're trying to test (Ie, Oracle Provider for OLE DB) - Note, ODBC connections can also be tested by selecting Microsoft OLEDB Provider for ODBC Drivers. e. Click the Connection Tab. Enter a valid connect string for Data Source. Enter a valid user and password for
he database. f. Click the Test Connection button.

Oracle client uninstllation issue.

Hi All,
I am sorry if it is irrelevant to post this question here, it would be great if anyone has an idea.
I am just trying to uninstall the oracle client which is installed in D: drive, as i want install it into F: drive.
my attempt on uninstall and its respective results are as below,
In cmd prompt.............
D:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\deinstall>set ORACLE_HOME=D:\Oracle\product\11
.2.0\client_1
D:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\client_1\deinstall>deinstall -home D:\Oracle\product\11
.2.0\client_1
Checking for required files and bootstrapping ...

Please let me know if there is a way to do it.
Thanks,

Have you tried just running the deinstall.bat without the home information as that should remove it, if you have both 32/64bit clients installed then it might also might be worth reading "Deinstall 11.2 32-bit Home Inadvertanly Removes 64-bit Homes and Vice Versa (Doc ID 1271661.1)"

Error in installing Oracle client 11g on Windows 2008 R2 (64bit) XenApp 6

I am trying to install "win64_11gR2_client.zip" Oracle 11g Client 64bit on Windows 2008 R2 that has been clamped and restricted by our security department. Details of the clamp:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/885409
The Windows 2008 R2 server is running on CITRIX XenApp 6.
When we try to install the client on a normal version of Windows 2008 R2 without the Clamp, the installation follows through and successfully. However, when we try to install the 11g Client on the Clamped Windows 2008 R2, we get the error below:
[INS-08802] Unable to instantiate the View class referred by View ID 'SummaryUI'
This indicates the primary issue is with the clamp. My issue now is knowing what exactly is causing the error. what restrictions should I enable from the clamp in order to get the installation working?
Here is the error log:

Oracle client 32/64 bit on Crystal Server 2013 and Windows Server 2012

I'm getting the error "Unknown Database Connector Error" when I run report on the server and it works OK on crystal designer 2013.
Been reading this thread 32&64 bit Oracle Client but not much help there.
Here are the details
System
Windows Server 2012
Crystal Server 2013 SP5
Crystal Server has been installed and appears to work fine. I was able to develop a brand new report locally and saved it to the server and it displays ok. Of course when I click on refresh on the report, it will error out due to database connection it looks like.
We have installed both oracle client drivers 64 and 32. 64 was installed first and then 32.The path has been modified so that the 32 shows up first.
I even ensure oracle_home and oracle_home32 are specified and restarted the server. I still get the same error.
The tns entries are also located in both installs of oracle client...
What might be the issue?

Oracle Database Client 12.1.0.2.0 (32-bit and 64-bit installed)
Installation Type: Custom
COMPONENTS INSTALLED:
SQLPLUS
ORACLE NET
We are currently not using an ODBC connection.
We installed Crystal 2013 Server SP05. This is the sole package installed (believe it's the latest version) without any extra patch package installed (believe no patch needed as it's the latest version).

The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client

We are running Server 2012 64 bit with multiple homes one is 32 bit and the other 64 bit. We installed the 64 bit first then the 32 bit next in order to get our Classic ASP WebSite that is using COM+ and OLEDB to see the provider.
C:\oracle\product\12.1.0\x86
C:\oracle\product\12.1.0\x64
The other Websites are ASP.Net 4.0 and are running in 64 bit application pools. They are using a DAL .Net assembly built x64 with a reference to the 64 bit ODP.Net version 4.121.1.0 in C:\oracle\product\12.1.0\X64\client_1\odp.net\bin\4.
I also see there is another folder C:\oracle\product\12.1.0\X64\odac_1\odp.net\bin\2.x with version 2.121.2.0. We are on running Framework 4.0 but when I switch to this version it works but with the version out of the bid\4 we are receiving the following error when the 64 bit Websites call the assembly:
The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client
Source Error:
Line 87: mDataSource = dataSource
Line 88: mConnectionString = GetDBConnectionString(dataSource)
Line 89: mConnection = New OracleConnection(mConnectionString)
Line 90: mParams = New List(Of IDbDataParameter)
Line 91: End Sub
I have not been successful in getting this to work after spending endless hours, so any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
Oracle Client/ODP build with certified Visual C++ Libraries so application using ODP.NET requires "runtime components of Visual C++ Libraries" to be installed.
Oracle Database Client installation includes the Visual C++ Libraries but ODAC doesn't contain these libraries which may cause such issue.
Please check the Note 43208.1 for the particular version of Visual C++ installs with Oracle Database Client installation(e.g. 11.2.0 Database Client installs Visual C++ .NET 2005) and also you can refer the windows event log error massage to verify which version of Visual C++ is missing.
thanks and regards
Venkat

Getting "The provider is not compatible with the version of Oracle client"

Hi,
By reading though posts this appears to be a very common and some people have been able to solve it by putting their OracleDataAccess.dll and support files in the same folder as the exe. However, I tried putting the OracleDataAccess.dll, oci.dll, ociw32.dll, orannzsbb11.dll, and oraocci11.dll in the folder and the problem persists.
This application works fine on my development system (Windows 7 64, VS2010 SP1) and 2 of our 3 servers (Windows 2008 R2). But on this one server it does not work! The problem first appeared when a developer installed ODT with ODAC 112030 on server. We installed a full version of the 11.2.0.1.0 Oracle Client (this matches our other servers) and removed the clients created by the ODT with ODAC 112030 install. However, I fear there is something somewhere that was not deinstalled causing the issue. Any thought on how we can track down and eliminate this problem.
Thanks,
Jerry

I changed the CPU to x86 in the solutions and the project is now working.
