Oracle Connection and BOBJ

Hello, I have a question. I know how to connect BOBJ 4.0 to SAP BW very well but I want to know how to connect BOBJ with oracle. I have questions like do we have to create a background id in both systems(Oracle and BOBJ)? if you have some links, can you please post them in this thread so I can find out about these queries.
Thanks.

Venkat,
It all depends on how you configure your Oracle environment, you could run ORANET &/or copy the TNSNAMES.ora from working system. This has nothing to do with BusinessObjects, you need to get your base Oracle client working first.
The TNSNAMES.ora file is located in ORACLE_HOME\network\admin

Ajay

Oracle 10G and UCCX 5.0 Database Connection return 0 rows on query

Currently I have an issue with UCCX 5.0 and Oracle 10G, we need to access a table on an Oracle10G DB, form IP IVR, so I installed the driver, created the ODBC connection and declared the ODBC, user and password on the Database subsystem (name on UCCX match the ODBC name) and restarted the engine.
Im trying to do simple select statement (SELECT * FROM TABLE) and I'm getting a 0 count once I test it.

Hi,
I see it has been a while since you posted this question, but I am having exactly the same problem with an Oracle integration and I was wondering if you were able to fix this and how.
Your reply will be greatly appreciated.

Can Oracle 7i and 8i be connected from Oracle 9i database

I want to know if i can do the following. That means is it possible in production scenario. If yes then how and will it affect the performance to a great extend.
We are now upgrading the application server to weblogic 10.3 . But this server supports only Oracle 9i and above. But we have two more data server which are Oracle 8i and Oracle 7i. These databases will be upgraded later on but not now. So the problem is i can not connect to these Oracle database versions if i use Weblogic 10.3. So i wanted to know if there is any possibility of connecting the application server to a intermideate Oracle 9i database which will act as a bridge from Application server to Oracle 7i and 8i. Can Oracle 9i connect to Oracle 7i and 8i. If yes then how. You can provide me online references if any.
Thanks in advance. Waiting for your reply.

The connection what you are refering is from a normal pc to Oracle 7i or 8i database. But i want to connect from Oracle 9i to Oracle 8iWhen connecting from one db to another (via a db_link) the 'calling' db is just another client to the 'called' db. if you can connect to 7.x (there was no 7i) with a 9.x sqlplus, then you should be able to connect with a 9.x database. At a previous job, we did something similar to get an app compiled against 8.1 to use a 10.2 database - set up a 9.2 intermediary that had nothing but db_links and synonyms pointing on to the 10g.
However, I wouldn't bet the company on making your scenario work. You really should upgrade your databases first.

Oracle 10g and internet connection

I recently installed a program which uses and installed the Oracle 10g database, but cannot run the database while I have an internet connection. If I disable my internet, I can run Oracle and my program. If I am connected to the internet and run the program it pops up this box:
DATABASE LOGIN FAILED
+... due to Oracle condition:+
ORA-12541: TNS:no listener
OK
When I click Ok, it pops up a new box with 2 tabs: one asking for me to:
Choose a (named database)
This installation stores data in a named Oracle database.
Since you may have several such databases, please select the name of
your desired database from the list below.
Note: If you are connecting to a local, single-user database, it may not have
a name, or its name may not work. In that case, you would need to choose
the entry "<<always use default>>".
There is a drop down box with 3 choices for the Database to use for this installation: XE, ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA, and <<always use default>>
The other tab is:
Describe Privileged Account
For maintenance purposes, this system also needs the name and password of
a privileged Oracle user account. It uses this privileged account
only as needed, for various setup and maintenance tasks, such as
o     creating the application's user account,
o     providing it with storage space,
o     providing backup/restore services,
o     applying software updates.
Please enter the privileged account's name and password below.
If you do not know the account's name and password, please contact your
Oracle database administrator (DBA).
And it is asking for a user name and password. The Oracle help said that info should have been displayed somewhere during the Oracle installation process, but being as though I installed another program that did the Oracle, I don't think I ever saw it.
I think it may matter:
XP Pro SP 3
2.4 GHz processor
3 GB RAM
To summarize; is there a way to run the Oracle database and my internet connection?
Finally, I apologize for likely not providing all you would need to answer my question, I will provide anything else I can if it will help.
Thanks

Hi, thanks for the quick response.
I went through the steps in the loopback adapter installation link you provided and have added a loopback adapter. When I do the ipconfig/all I get the following for the loopback adapter:
Ethernet adapter Local Area Connection 4:

Dhcp Enabled...........................: No
IP Address...............................: 192.168.25.129

Connectivity between Oracle database and client...

Hi guys,
I was asked to make a connection between oracle client and database via internet so that our clients can access the database from different parts of the country, and the data that is transmitted in the internet does not require security consideration. And I have successfully implemented this.
But later onwards they asked me to structure it in such a way so that clients must be able to select, insert, update and delete data offline, in case there is online connectivity problem.
So my question is, are there any possibilities in oracle to temporarily store data that are available in the oracle database to the client side and then later onwards transfer those datas once the clients are available online. Or are there any other alternative ways...
Additional Information - Client access the database through an application created by VB.
Please do help me on this project.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Asif.You probably should do a cost/risk analysis. Where you are headed might be able to be done (but it will require that the "clients" also have their own copy of the database) but it won't be easy and it certainly won't be cheap, either in initial implementation or in on-going maintenance. The alternative is to take a hard look at your network connections and see if it wouldn't be cheaper/easier to be able to ensure that it is reliable. Remember "the internet" won't break, it is highly redundant. If you have connectivity issues, they will almost certainly be in your own equipment and configurations, so your (your organization) will have the ability to address and fix any issues there.

Oracle connect failed on x64 and IA64 platform via Oracle OLEDB provider

Hi everyone,
I installed SQL Sever on x64 and IA64 machine, and Create a database via Oracle datasource. I can connect the datasource via OLEDB and .Net provider successfully on x86 machine. But failed to connect the Oracle datasource on x64 and IA64.
Following is the error messgae:
1) Install 64 bit build on x64 machine:
Error message: Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ORA-06413: Connection not open.
2) Install 32 bit build on x64 machine:
Error message: Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. 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.
I know there is a know bug on c:\Program Files (x86)\... with Oracle provider. And some one has given a workarround method that I should move my my application out of the the folder path which includes parentheses. But it really is mess method for SQL Server (That is my application)......
Is there any other workarround method? Or when will Oracle fix this bug?
Thanks^_^
Lindsay

Is 10204 available for x64 and IA64. It is said that there is only 10204 for x86 machine, right?
I downloaded 10203 for IA64 machine and tested connection on SQL Server with Oracle datasource via Oracle OLEDB provider, and got the following error (The data source is Oracle92 installed on another machine):
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. 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.
Could you please tell me what's wrong with it?

Connect to different Oracle server and database in PL/SQL code

Hi,
There are two oracle servers and databese, A and B. I need to read data from database A and insert those data to databse B. Is there anyway I can do it in PL/SQL program?
Regards,
Shiva

In a SQL*Plus session, [connect string] is generally a TNS alias (i.e. in the command "connect scott/tiger@orcl", orcl is a TNS alias). I don't know if it is possible in some release to have a fully qualifies TNS entry (i.e. connect scott/tiger@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(...)) ), but it is certainly uncommon. Depending on the version of Oracle, there are various ways to configure a client to resolve a TNS alias, but local naming is the most common, so I'll assume that is what you're using...
If you are trying to query a remote database, you would either have to
- Create a database link (i.e. CREATE DATABASE LINK db_link_name ...) and refer to the database link name in your SQL statement
- Embed the full TNS entry in your query (i.e. SELECT * FROM emp@(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=( .. .)) )
If you choose to create the database link, one of the things you have to specify is the TNS alias (or the fully qualified TNS entry). If you specify a TNS alias there, you would generally have to ensure that the TNS alias existed in the tnsnames.ora file on the database server where the database link is created.

Object Data Source and oracle connections.-Help please!!

I have a detailsview with objectdatasource as a Data source.
Every time, i Edit and save a row in the detailsview, upto 10 connections are created to Oracle. And because of this maximum no of connections is reached quickly.
I am closing/disposing the connection object in the update method.
What could be causing this behaviour?
Need help immediatley. Appreciate your time.
-Thanks.

That helpes quite a bit. I still can't get the app to retrieve data, but I am getting a more useful message in the log:
[Error in allocating a connection. Cause: Connection could not be allocated because: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied]
As you suggested, I removed the <default-resource-principal> stuff from sun-web.xml and modified it to match your example. Additionally, I changed the <res-ref-name> in web.xml from "jdbc/jdbc-simple" to "jdbc/oracle-dev".
The Connection Pool "Ping" from the Admin Console is successful with the user and password I have set in the parameters. (it fails if I change them, so I am pretty sure that is set up correctly) Is there another place I should check for user/pass information? Do I need to do anything to the samples/database.properties file?
By the way, this is the 4th quarter 2004 release of app server. Would it be beneficial to move to the Q1 2005 beta?
Many thanks for your help so far...

Connect Oracle 10g and OWB to SQL Server 2005 in Windows XP

I am unable to create a working connection between Oracle 10g and a SQL Server database. I have followed the instructions in several sources, but when I attempt to connect to the MSSQL database through SQL Plus or SQL Developer, I get the ORA-03135 error. I set up a non-Oracle location in OWB and the connection test was successful but the metadata would not import. Creating an Oracle location with the same parameters produced the ORA-03135 error.
In TNSNAMES.ORA I placed the following definition:
MSSQL =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = wgilt1.hsd1.nj.comcast.net)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = MSSQL)
(HS = OK)
In LISTENER.ORA I placed the following in the SID_LIST_LISTENER:
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = MSSQL)
(ORACLE_HOME = C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_2)
(PROGRAM = hsodbc)
The inimssql.ora file contains the following:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MSSQL
HS_DB_NAME = MSSQL
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
HS_FDS_TRACE_FILE_NAME = c:\hs_fds_mssql.log
What is missing?

could be a copy paste issue, but please make sure the tnsnames.ora has at least on space in from of each line after the alias.
In addition what is the listener status? Please post the output of lsnrctl status <listener name>.
Need to know also the output of: C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\db_2\bin\hsodbc

DataDirect and Oracle Connection Manager

Quick Question - Has anyone made the Plumtree Portal running on Oracle using the built in DataDirect drivers work with an infrastructure that uses Oracle Connection Manager (OCM).
Due to security and performance reasons, using Oracle Connection Manager is needed to communicate accross firewalls.
Ive already followed up with DataDirect, they dont support it currently. Plumtree Support doesnt seem to think it will work (im guessing there right).
If anyones got any insight, it be appreciated.

please send configuration file of cman.ora, listener.ora

How to set connection between oracle forms and DB?

I have installed win xp,
oracle database 10g in c drive ,
oracle forms and reports 10g in d drive ,
how do i set the connection between forms and DB ?
i know its an old question but i am very new to this !
thanks in advance.

You didn't mention the versions or whether you are using Developer Suite or Application Server. I guess it really doesn't matter in this case, but please provide complete information in the future.
In order to connect the F/R home to a db you will need to make the appropriate configuration entries in tnsnames.ora found in the F/R home (\NETWORK\ADMIN). The entry you add will be similar to the one found in the tnsnames.ora for the db which is found in a similar directory in the db home. The entry will look something like this:
ORCL =
(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
      (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = myMachine)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
      (SERVICE_NAME = myMachine)
)
