Oracle Expert connecting via OMS

Hi,
I have an interesting problem: When I Start Oracle Expert on my win machine (either from the oem console or the start menu item) it welcomes me with a login screen. I choose "Login to the Oracle Management Server", than enter correctly the requested values (user, pass, server) and then I press OK. You can imagine my surprise when I get the following message "Already logged into OMS:<server>", even when I enter a wrong password. This message appears in a message box and your only option is "OK". When you press it you get the login box again. Stupid, eh?
We run Oracle 9iR2 Enterprise on a SPARC with Solaris 9. OMS and OEM repository run on the same machine. Database and listener are running properly, suppose the Intelligent Agent too.
I tried to trace the problem on the server side. On oms startup, the following message was logged:
VXA-3008 : Starting OMS Services, Wait
I didn't find such a message in the OMS Message Reference. Does anyone have a clue?
Thanks in advance,
Anton
P.S. Tried also to turn trace and logging for the oms, didn't help me much....

Hi all
Thanks for not responding to my question.
I found that the oracle equivalent package was,
import oracle.jdbc.pool.OracleDataSource;
I am all set..

  • ORA Connect via SSH Tunnel on Windows failed! LINUX works ...

    Hello again,
    i tried to establish a Oracle Client Connection via SSH Tunnel on WinXP Pro.
    1. Opened SSH-Tunnel Connection with plink (putty)
    TUNNEL: 10.5.1.111:1521 => localhost:1521
    (plink works fine with telnet, MySQL Client and other stuff)
    2. Connected with Oracle Client on Tunnel END => Localhost, Port 1521
    3. WIth ORA8i i got: Paket Error, With ORA10g i get: TNS: no listener
    plink works fine, so i dont think the problem is located there.
    i tried, tnsnames.ora, easyconnect and TNS-Less. So i guess, its not related to the connection method.
    i tried the same on LINUX ... ssh tunnel and sqlplus connect ... IT WORKS !
    Does Oracle need an aditional Port?
    Does it have Problems with WIN2UNIX Connections? (ORA DB is on UNIX)
    tnx

    Hi,
    Hum..., I guess this not work!
    Looking for this schema below, you need put the 1521 port
    If you desire, access the www.ssh.com site and download other ssh program

  • Can SQL*Plus connect via ODBC to NON-Oracle data source?????

    I am struggling to understand something. I downloaded Oracle instance client, SQL*Plus and ODBC components with the hopes of being able to connect via SQL*Plus to a non-Oracle/ODBC compliant database.
    Is this possible? Or is SQL*Plus ability to connect via ODBC only to an Oracle data source??
    Thanks...

    sqlplus only connects to oracle. you can use the odbc driver from instant client to allow other applications to access oracle via odbc (e.g. excel). if you need to connect to non-oracle odbc database (ms-access, foxpro, etc.) you need odbc driver for those sources.
    you can use sqldeveloper to connect to oracle and non-oracle databases. check otn product info for sqldeveloper for more details.

  • Connect via SQL*Plus taking more time in Oracle 11 than in 10

    NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - ProductionOS is AIX 5.3 for Oracle 10 and AIX 6.1 for Oracle 11.
    We are currently in the process of migrating some applications from Oracle 10 to 11. Our admins have setup a new development system for us with an Oracle 11 instance. Regarding performance the new system behaves more or less the same than our old, e.g. when executing SQLs we notice hardly any performance differences and those we find are slightly in favour of the new system.
    But now we discovered that the time it takes to establish a database connection via SQL*Plus is longer on the Oracle 11 system. Running the following code
    sqlplus -s user/pw@database <<END
    quit
    ENDa thousand times takes ~60s under Oracle 10 but ~140s under Oracle 11. This may not seem much but we are running a test framework consisting of a bunch of shell scripts where several thousand connections are openend via SQL*Plus to execute some SQLs, so that even this small time difference results in rather huge difference in total runtime. The SQLs themself require roughly the same time in both databases, as already mentioned above they are in fact slightly faster in Oracle 11.
    To analyze the time difference I ran a trace for the connect with the following parameters in sqlnet.ora
    TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT=4
    TRACE_UNIQUE_CLIENT=ONand found out that there is a time difference of about 70ms during the connect handshake:

    (1) [22-MAR-2013 13:33:40:618] nscon: got NSPTRS packetAny ideas what could be the reason for this time difference? Something in our network configuration or something else?

    With local connections - I do not think a TCP packet send from an IP to the same IP, leaves the interface as an actual wire protocol/signal. If I'm correct, then running local connection tests will be mostly useless in checking the actual network infrastructure.
    Tests 3 and 4 should be showing the same connection times as the same physical network infrastructure is used - only the direction is reversed in the tests.
    I would assume that port settings on the switches and interface settings on the routers treat packets equally in both directions between 2 servers. But this could in part explain the problem if this is not the case. In a case of a router for example, the 1st test's ingress interface is the egress interface of the 2nd test (and vice versa). Configurations can differ substantially between interfaces on the same router. Likewise if there is a firewall - as different rule sets are applied in each test and these rule sets could differ.
    So I would not be too quick to state that this is definitely not a network problem. But I agree that based on the small percentage difference (assuming comparable tests), it does not look like a network issue.
    The next step is to determine what the delay is between the listener accepting the client connection, and the connection being serviced by a dedicated server process.
    This will require listener tracing - tracing the time from when the listener accepted the connection (and parsed the TNS connection string), to handing off the connection to the dedicated server process.
    As a comparison test, you can also test shared server connections. Dispatcher processes (of the db instance) register themselves with the listener. The shared server client hand off is thus done to an existing server process - no need for the Listener to make a kernel call to load and initialise an executable image.
    Shared connections are typically faster than dedicated connections in this respect.
    If there is a major time difference, then it means some kind of issue with the listener dealing with dedicated servers as oppose to dispatcher hand off's. As both connections would have had very similar network transit time - which means the connection time difference is related directly to dealing with a dedicated server connection request and hand off.
    You can also substitute the oracle executable with a wrapper - and troubleshoot the actual dedicated server startup. I've only done this with Oracle XE 10.2 though and with local IPC connections. Unsure how robust this will be for testing purposes via TCP using 11g.

  • Why I can't connect to Oracle Enterprise Manager via browser after install?

    I've installed Oracle9iAS Release2(9.0.2) with Windows 2000 server (servicepack3) and Oracle9i database on the same host.After installation, I can use Oracle enterprise manager(via browser) by connect as "ias_admin" and "12345" for password (It's a password that I input at installing). But 2 days later, I cannot connect it!, what's happen to my 9iAS. I try to change my password in command line by "emctl set password <old_pwd> <new_pwd>, But I've got a message that is incorrect password. By the way, I use command line to start OC4J and HTTP Server instead. Please help me for this problem. Thank you very much.
    Ps. I've got this problem for 2 time, but the first time I delete all of oracle products and install it again .

    If you have installed the Oracle AS 10.1.3 using an Apache in front the default port is 7777 as far as I know.
    You wrote that the main page is accessible, that's why I would suspect that you might have a problem with your hostname. Are you accessing the mainpage via the full qualified hostname or via ip?
    Please ensure that you can reach the server using the full qualified hostname!
    If you are not sure about it, add an entry to your local hosts-file.
    Please tell us if this was your problem!

    http://www.orafaq.com/wiki/JDBC
    Which is wrong. oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver is the driver name, oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver is an old and deprecated name for the driver. More likely the Oracle JDBC driver is not in the classpath of the application.
    BTW: If you use recent versions of Oracle JDBC on Java 6 you don't need to explicitly load the driver as per the JDBC 4 specification (see 2nd note on http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14072_01/java.112/e10589/getsta.htm#i1005373 )

  • Database Table Resource via Oracle RAC connection Manager

    Hello,
    Our current IDM 8.1 syncs off a HR Database Table using the Database Table connector.
    Our DBA's are moving the view into an Oracle RAC environment.
    Question: Is there a way for us to connect and sync off our DB table through an Oracle RAC connection manager.
    I understand that for the IDM repository, this is possible.
    jdbc:oracle:thin@(DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (LOAD_BALANCE = ON)
    (FAILOVER = ON)
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server1.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server2.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    (SERVICE_NAME = db.com)
    servers server1 and server2 are oracle connection managers
    Thank you for your input,
    -RC

    We moved the repository to Oracle RAC recently. The syntax to switch to the new databasecluster was something like this:
    lh setRepo -tOracle -ujdbc:oracle:thin:@//dbcluster1.domain:1521/service_idm.oradb.domain -Uwaveset -Pwachtwoord
    For the 'lh setRepo' command the old database had to be up, and we had to use the old ojdb5.jar. After that we switched to ojdb6.jar.
    One of our resources is a database table with HR data in the same database. The following Database Access Parameters work for us:
    Database Type:      Oracle
    JDBC Driver:      oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
    JDBC URL Template:      jdbc:oracle:thin:@//%h:%p/%d
    Host :     dbcluster1.domain
    Database: service_idm.oradb.domain
    Port: 1521

  • Can Connect via Database Control but Cannot Connect from Enterprise Manager

    Hi experts,
    This is a 10g database on a Windows server.
    when I remote into the server:
    - I CAN connect via the web-based Database Control
    - I CANNOT connect to any db/instance via regular Ent Mgr - get the ugly "ORA-12154 TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified" error.
    I thought both tools used the same connection files (tnsnames, listerner etc), but maybe not.
    When db control connects, but Enterprise Manager cannot, what should I check to find the problem?

    Thanks madrid.
    I eventually got it to work by changing the tnsnames.ora in the client_1 folder
    This is the original:
    FS9ENFP1 =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = PNCLAFDB)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = FS9ENFP1)
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    ORCL=
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = PNCLAFDB)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = orcl)
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = PLSExtProc)
    (PRESENTATION = RO)
    I removed the EXTPROC entry and added entries for the ORCL and FS9ENFP1 databases, specifying server_database like this:
    FS9ENFP1_PNCLAFDB =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = PNCLAFDB)(PORT = 1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SID = FS9ENFP1)
    (SERVER = DEDICATED)
    Not really sure WHY it is necessary to list an instance twice, once without server name and another with server name... but EM is able to connect now. I simply modeled tnsnames after another Oracle server where EM was able to connect.

  • Powerbook G4 can't connect via ethernet but connects via airport

    We have a small office network connected to an Efficient Networks DSL router that's managed by our isp. The router has 4 ports and a linksys 8 port switch is connected to one of those ports. Another D-Link wireless router/switch is connected to another port.
    2 i-macs connect without problem via ethernet cable. They are set to DHCP and get 192.xx private addresses. Both run 10.4.5. Another older imac running 9.2.2. also has no problems.
    I recently purchased a powerbook G4 and it will not connect via ethernet to the Efficient networks router. At first it was connected to the linksys, so decided to connect it direct to the Efficient Networks router. With DHCP, it acquires a 169. internet address which is self generated (i.e. no real connection). I tried to give it a static private address (talking to the isp provider). They could see the powerbook but saw all zero's (presumable mac address). By the way the Powerbook works perfectly at home connected via ethernet cable to a D-Link router connected to a cable modem so it's not a physical problem. I even checked the ethernet cable I used in the office with another computer - no problem.
    When I switch to airport in the office, the powerbook connects to the network and the internet. I get some strange warning messages showing the server's and the router's private ip addresses. I click ok, and the powerbook finds an unassigned private ip address. It's the only way it will work, but it causes problems, because I can't connect to one of the network printers. Speed also isn't great.
    Can anyone give me advise how to proceed. I am no expert on this stuff so keep it as simple as possible.
    Tks

    Tim,
    Thanks for your help. Here's what I've done before reading your e-mail. The D-Link DI-524 wireless router is connected to the Effiicent Neworks DSL router as you mentioned. One ethernet port of the EFF.Net. router is connected to the WAN port of the DI-514.
    Because I have a D-Link router at home which works flawlessly with my powerbook, I decided to connect the ethernet cable of the powerbook to the D-Link which has 4 ethernet ports. Lo and behold, the powerbook acquired a private ip address and connected to the LAN and internet!
    When I connected the powerbook direct to the Efficient Networks router, it could not communicate. I believe that there must be some software incompatibility between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router. By connecting to the D-Link, the D-Link assigned an ip address to the powerbook, and it could connect to the server, lan, etc..
    Only problem is that I have a Brother network printer that cannot connect to the powerbook. My powerbook cannot find it on the network. Because there is a linksys switch connected to the efficient networks router's third ethernet port, maybe as you said, going through the D-Link via DHCP (when the Linksys is also acting as a DHCP server, might cause this type of problem. What do you think?
    As a final note, other imac G5's connected to the linksys switch (which then connects to the Efficient Network's router) have no problem connecting to the lan or internet and have no problem connecting to any of the printers. When I put the powerbook on that switch, I could not connect to the internet - i.e. whether connecting via the lynksys switch or direct with the efficient networks router - same results: no internet connection whether manually or via DHCP.
    So the imac G5 has no problem with the efficient networks router but the powerbook G4 hits a brick wall. The G4 likes the D-Link router. I am concerned (and I will have to check this) that if I turn off the dhcp server feature from the D-Link, that whatever software issue crops up between the powerbook and the Efficient Networks router, will rise up again, because the D-Link will act like a simple switch (just like my linksys switch), and we'll be back to square zero. In any case, no harm in trying. This may be the cause of the Powerbook not seeing that Brother printer (even though it sees another printer and other macs).
    Having spent hours reading about network problems, I think it's safe to say that macs have problems with certain routers. Why a G5 works and a powerbook G4 doesn't is beyond me, but clearly software must play a role.

    When I try and connect via VPN only. I get: You are not authorized to use this functionality. Contact your administrator.
    Here's the log from client. We have ensured the client version matches the server version exactly. Funny as when I'm directly on their network I can connect just fine. Hoping this log will point to solution.

    I think you have already posted this problem on another post, I said it is possible it could be a ports issue.
    Have a look at the following http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/bi-foundation/epm-component-communications-11121-354680.xls
    Select FR studio as the client and it should give indication to the ports that need to be opened.

  • Can connect via ODBC but not via SQL Developer?

    Hi, all.
    My setup:
    Windows XP Pro
    JDK 1.6
    SQL Developer 2.1.1.64.45
    I'm attempting to connect to an Oracle DB using OS authentication and trying hand-entry of the host and SID; and also trying my TNS file. When I attempt to connect via SQL Developer, I get the following error:
    "Status : Failure -Test failed: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied."
    When I attempt this same connection, however, using ODBC and Access, I can get right in and see the tables.
    What can I try in order to get SQL Developer working correctly?
    Thanks,
    IVR Avenger

    I'm not really familiar with connections Using OS authentication, but if OCI+TNS based connections work you could try to activate OCI connections by selecting
    Preferences -> Database -> Advanced -> Use OCI/Thick Driverand then use the TNS connection type when creating your connection.
    It should work well even with the thin driver but i cannot help you in this case because i've never had to use this kind of authentication.

  • Error trying to connect via jdbc

    I'm trying to connect via jdbc driver from a java application to a remote db. The code is quite simple

    Please be aware of the following facts:
    1) sqlplus from the same machine has no problem connecting to the db
    2) there is no firewall or router between the client and the server
    3) As host name I've tried the fqdn (resolved by the DNS), a name I've set up in /etc/hosts, the mere IP address
    4) Checking with tcpdump, I've verified that NO network packet actually leaves the client, so the problem completely lies there.
    Has anyone some good idea why this happens?

    Make sure you are providing correct hostname and listener port number

  • Oracle Generic Connectivity in Oracle Application Ser ver 10g.

    Hi Tak and All!
    With the help of your great guidence, I have connect the Generic Connectivty for MS Access and MS Excel successfully in client server environment.
    The topology was..
    Host A = Custom installation of Oracle9i database + MS ACCESS
    Host B = Oracle 9i Database (Complete)
    But...
    tell me How the Oracle Generic Connectivity will connect in ORACLE APPLICATION SERVER. What will be the concept and topology? Because the client only have the URL which is used for getting application on browser.
    I will be extremely thankful.
    All these forums always help me.
    Thanks
    Rana Adnan

    It depends. Oracle Reports can connect to Oracle and non-Oracle databases directly, without using Generic Connectivity.
    Your Forms application would presumably connect only to the Oracle database. The Oracle database might well connect to other Oracle and non-Oracle databases via database links. The non-Oracle database links would utilize Generic Connectivity.
    Given the three machines A, B, and C
    A could connect to B and B could connect to C
    A could connect to C for reporting queries

  • BlueTooth connects via HotSynch, not other means PALM TX

    I am at my wit's end here. Really. I'm about to toss my Palm, and I'm hoping someone can help me out.
    Here's my setup:
    1. PALM T|X - less than a month old.
    2. Dell Inspiron 6000 laptop, running Windows XP Home SP2, 2gb of memory, Centrino technology.
    3. USB Bluetooth Adapter 2.0
    Here's my problem:
    1. I can connect, via Bluetooth, to my laptop in order to HotSynch. I did this by following the on-screen instructions on my Palm device.
    2. I cannot connect, via Bluetooth, to my laptop in any other fashion, despite following all of the on-screen instructions. So, when I attempt to go on the Network Service, click on the Connect button,my computer says "Bluetooth Connection Successful. Bluetooth device _ is connected to 'HotSych' service on this computer. Com 11."
    The service connection progress never moves beyond that on the Palm device. I always get the following error:
    Error: PPP timeout (0x1231)
    My connection type is PPP
    My idle timeout is 3 minutes, but even if I click "Never" it doesn't connect me.
    Query DNS is checked
    IP Address is automatic is checked.
    Is there PLEASE someone who can help me figure this out? I'd greatly appreciate it.
    Thank you.

  • Cluster connectivity from OMS console

    I've successfully installed 10g agent (10.2.0.4) on a linux cluster, but I'm having problems with cluster and database connectivity from the console (10gR4 on solaris 10). I can ssh to both cluster nodes from the OMS server no problem. I can sqlplus to cluster database from the OMS server as well. But when I try to use the same credentials in console, I'm getting "Connection to crs01 as user oracle failed.". Message in emoms.trc doesn't reveal much either:

    Yes, that's how I discovered I had a problem :) I was entering preferred credentials and tried to test and it failed. So I tried from a telnet session on oms server and it worked. I can't connect from oms console only. Do you know where the oms gets connection description from? Tnsnames.ora?
