Oracle Explorer throws "Unspecified Error"

Hi,
I just installed OPD 10.2.01. And it said installation was successful. But when I goto IDE and click on oracle explorer an "Unspecified Error" message box appears. And also I am unable to exit the IDE after this, the message reappears when I try to exit IDE.
Could anyone please help me with this.
Thanks.

ok to answer my own question. I reinstalled the opd.net. even though it threw an error that it was not able to update some rar file, the oracle explorer seems promising.

Optional Parameter - Oracle Package Throws an Error

Hi there,
I have an Oracle Package & it has a stored procedure with optional parameter. The calling code is in ColdFusion.
When I run my webpage the Oracle throws below error.
" [Macromedia][Oracle JDBC Driver][Oracle]ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'GET_CONTRACT_BY_DYN_SQL' ORA-06550: line 1, column 7: PL/SQL: Statement ignored "

Does anyone knows why it throws an error? As you can see in the package header & body the parameter P_COLS has the default value as '*'.
Looking forward to hear from someone.

Nothing sane about this approach. Especially the decision not to use bind variables and slowing down cursor processing significantly by burning a lot more CPU cycles on hard parsing and fragmenting the SQL Shared Pool in the process.
Why not used MS Access instead? It is far more suited as a mickey mouse database for a goofy application?
Why am I badmouthing your approach to Oracle? Because that is exactly the primary cause, the #1 reason, for poor Oracle performance and run-time problems dealing with Shared Pool fragmentation. It is something that many Oracle experts blog about, talk about, write about. It is addressed in numerous books, Oracle documentation, and even Oracle Support Notes.
And despite the amount of information available on how to get the basics rights in using Oracle... this approach you are pursuing still refuses to die. So it deserves to be beaten with a lead pipe when it rears its ugly head here in this forum..

Unspecified error while installing sql server management studio 2012.

HI,

Repies will be appreciated.

Hello,
I have seen in the past that error and is generally related to remnants
from previous installations of SQL Server. Manually uninstalling the remnants may help as explained on the following resources:

Error -3000 in Oracle Explorer View while trying to add connection. v. 10.2

I have been using Oracle 9.2 and it's cooresponding ODP.NET for ASP.NET web development. I am now started on a new project that is running on a 10g database. I figured I would try out the Visual Tools suite and get the benefit of using ODP.NET and the integrated tools.
I run the installer and created a new home directory just like the release notes say. After I reboot I copy my TNS Names and try SQL plus from my 9.x version and it works perfectly I can connect to any server. I check my Oracle Home selector and it is pointing to the 10g client directory.
The problem is that when I am in Visual Studio .NET 2003 and open the Oracle Explorer view and click Add Connection. I get the dialog box and select my database and use a username/password and click Test and I immediately get a "-3000" error message almost like it is not even going out on the network. It says some internal error (String) datatype but nothing useful at all in the error message to help in resolving the error.
I did a search on the forums here and everyone says use the latest version which I would do but I am on the latest version (Downloaded Yesterday 10-19-2005). So to get back to work I uninstalled the 10g visual tools and I am using the 9.2 client using the 9.2 ODP.NET until I can find out what the issue is with the 10g tools.

Just to give an update to help others if they may encounter this issue. I uninstalled the Oracle 9.x client and removed any traces even the Universal installer. Once you reboot and ensure that nothing anywhere is pointing to the oracle directory I even deleted the Oracle directory to ensure that it would be a clean install.
I then proceeded to install the 10.2 Developer tools and used the default settings and when I finished the installation I copied my TNSNames over to the network directory and rebooted. I then launched VS.NET 2003 and went to Oracle Explorer and added a Database and did the test connection and it worked. So it appears to have an issue with an existing installation running side by side (9.x and 10.x) The 9.x install did have the ODP.NET library installed so this alone might have been the issue as I haven't seen in the docs were you can't have both on the same system as with .NET you aren't supposed to have this issue running multiple versions of the same .NET assembly on the same machine.
What was wierd with the scenario is that other than ODP.NET on the 10g client install everything worked fine connecting using the command line tools. It just would not connect via Visual Studio .NET's environment. I didn't try to do it in code as I figured it would be just the same issue.

Error expanding tables in Oracle Explorer

I have an Oracle 9i database that I am connecting to remotely (the server is in Ohio and on a UNIX O/s, I am in Florida)
I can connect to a Local Oracle 9i Server with no problems ( it is running on a windows server)
when I try to expand the Tables in the Oracle Explorer in VS 2003 I get this error.
"An error occurred while expanding the node:
ORA-04063: view "SYS.ALL_XML_TABLES" has errors"
Any idea how to fix this?
I can expand the folders for Views, Functions, Procedures, and Packages without any problems.
Thanks in Advance

Glen,
Thanks for your response, I am getting this error when I run it from the queery window in the VS IDE.
ERROR
ORA-04063: view "SYS.ALL_XML_TABLES" has errors
from SQLPLUS I get the same error.
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-04063: view "SYS.ALL_XML_TABLES" has errors
the database is Oracle 9i on a UNix box, (thats what I am told, I do not know the version but I am using the latest oracle 10g client with the VS 2003 Oracle Developer tools installed.

Error when try to open Oracle Explorer

I have just installed Oracle.... During the installation, I didn't receive any error message, but when I try to open Oracle Explorer, I get this message:
Package Load Failure.
Package 'Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio .NET' has failed to load properly (GUID = {D601BB95-E404-4A8E-9F24-5C1A462426CE}). Please contact package vendor for assistance...
How can I fix that problem?
I am using Visual Studio 2005 and Framework 2.0; but I don't have any oracle database installed locally.

first, close vs2005 IDE, try using gacutil supplied by VS2005, then restart vs2005.
the command looks like this,
gacutil /i Oracle.DataAccess.dllgacutil is available in SDK folder or vs2005 installation.
Oracle.DataAccess.dll is available in {ORACLE_HOME}/odp.net/bin/2.x

Unspecified error using odt in Visual Studio 2003

Hello all
We have Windows XP SP2.
We have installed ODT version 10.1.0.4.00 on our workstation. We have MS Visual Studio 2003. We have the Oracle client 10.1.0.2.0.
We also have Oracle data access product 10.1.0.4.0.
When I try to access Tools - connect to oracle database, I get the error : "unspecified error". I get the same error back if I try to exit Visual studio. I have to kill the process to exit. I have the same thing using View - Oracle Explorer.
What could be wrong ?
Best regards

Typically that error is referring to a COM dll that is not being loaded because it is not registered on the system. Usually, that error message will give you a dll name, or a PROGID, or something.....was anything else provided in the error?
In order for a file to be unregistered, something might have been uninstalled (or a failed install) that could have caused this issue. I did a search in kbase and found a article that may help, at least it refers to a dll that you can try to register.
Perhaps doing a reinstall may resolve the error.

"Unspecified error"

Environment:
VS.NET 7.1.3088
.Net Framework 1.1.4322 SP1
Oracle Database 10.1.0.2 (local)
I installed the plug-in. Visual Studio works fine until I try to use the Oracle Explorer. I get an error window "Unspecified Error." If I try to exit visual studio the same error appears. I'm locked into an effectively useless IDE at that point.
I've tried multiple installs with multiple homes. Nothing has worked. Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
Damon

I'm going to have to uninstall because now I get "Operation could not be completed" every time I try and close VS.NET. Also, creating a new project and opening the Oracle Explorer only works on occasion. I ran Filemon and Regmon and didn't find anything out of the ordinary, so I can't provide any more details other than it only works out of the blue and I get errors like crazy.

Oracle Explorer not appearing in VS2005 after installing ODT 11.1.0.6.20

this was installed for both vs2003 & vs2005. Installation completed successfully.
loading up vs2003 for first time after ODT i was able to select Oracle Explorer option from the View menu, connect successfully and perform actions as expected.
loading up vs2005 for first time after ODT install i got an initial error saying "Command with same name already exists" - this error only occured the once.
in vs2005 the Oracle Explorer option does not exist in the view menu, but it has added the oracle data items to my toolbox. And in the VS About option it says Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio 11.1.0.6.20 is installed.
Where is my oracle explorer!!
Cheers,
Karen

Hi, Oracle Explorer was replaced by Server Explorer in VS 2005 onward. Please open up Server Explorer, add a new connection, and choose "ODP.NET" from the list of Data Providers.

How do I get a datagridview to work with Oracle Explorer.

Hi.
I've got a database running locally V 9.2.
I've downloaded the latest ODAC for this version, and also ODAC10202BEATA and installed the v10 client and the Oracle Explorer.
I can then select a table from my database and create a dataOracleAdapter and dataOracleConnection. I can previewResults the dataOracleDataAdapter OK. From this I then create a dataset.
I then add a dataViewGrid to my form, and in the dataSource, select my dataSet.
When I run the form, the dataGrid is empty.
If I change my dataSource to the Project Data Source (rather than the one linked to my form via the dataGridView tasks, I get the option to preview the data, but I get an error message 'Start accmDataOracleDataAdapter1 could not be previewed. Data providor identified by guid '000000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' could not be loaded.)
This is the first time I've used this. No experience of dataGrids in VB 6 I'm afraid.
Please can someone point in the right direction, or to a tutorial anywhere which explains the use of dataGridViews in VS 2005. I've searched and can't find anything on the web.
Many thanks.
Keith.

Word couldn't send mail because of MAPI failure, Unspecified error.

This issue is crossposted in Microsoft Answers Word and OUTLOOK. I am posting here in hopes that someone at Mircrosoft may have a solution or at least elevate the issue to someone who does.
http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/office/forum/officeversion_other-word/word-could-not-send-mail-because-of-mapi-failure/f62678fe-ef1d-42b5-8cfe-1e43d6a1d609

I dabble with VBA and write and maintain several amateur Word Add-Ins. Accordingly, I have Word 2003, 2007, 2010 and 2013 installed on my PC. They get along fine. However, I am unable to "Share" or "Send" an open Word
document as an E-mail attachment in any version! In each case Word returns an error mesage "Word couldn't send mail because of a MAPI failure, Unspecified error (the same issue occurs with Excel and Powerpoint except the error dialog is a bit different.)
Using Word 2003, I (CAN) "Send to (Mail recipient for review)" in which case OUTLOOK is opened with the document as an attachment. I can also "Send to Mail Recipient" from Windows Explorer, in which case the Word file is attached to
an OUTLOOK message, and I can create an instance of OUTLOOK and send mail from Word using VBA.
I have repaired all Office versions. I have removed the registry keys for all office versions and repaired all versions again. I have run "fixmapi" until I am blue in the face. I have renamed the MAPI32.DLL files and ran sfc \scannow
to ensure that the MAPI32.DLL file is not corrupt. In view of these actions and in view of what I can do, something tells me that the MAPI files are fine.
So what is this "Unspecified error?" This problem is rife on the internet and most of the "canned" solutions have been marked "Answered" by some MS support engineer. These "canned" solutions might have
fixed the issue at one point, but they don't work now. At least not for me.
Thanks.

Hello Greg,
I noted that there are 2 knowledge articles that describe scenarios where you may encounter this error.
KB 291152 You receive a "Word couldn't send mail because of MAPI failure" error message when you try to send a Word document as an e-mail attachment in Word 2002
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/291152/EN-US
KB 929362 You cannot send a file by clicking Send in a different program when Outlook 2007 is running as administrator
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929362/EN-US
Please let me know the following:
1. What version of Outlook are you using?
2. Do you have Outlook open when you attempt the File > Share > Email as attachment from Word? If not, does the error occur if you open Outlook, open Word and then try to send the email?
3. If you close/reopen Word and then try the send again, do you get the same error?
4. Are you running either Outlook or Word in an elevated mode?
5. What happens if you start both Outlook and Word as "Run As Administrator". You may have to right-click each applications' .exe file to be able to choose the "Run As Administrator" option.
6. Do you get the same error when using File > Share > Email as attachment using Excel?
7. In Internet Explorer, open the Internet Options. On the General tab within the browsing history, delete your temporary Internet files and website files
8. Does the issue occur in selective startup mode?
Steps to setup selective startup mode:
Click on the Windows Start button, in the Search box type msconfig and then hit enter. This should open up the System Configuration Utility. Make the following adjustments within each tab.
Services Tab:
- Check the option 'Hide All Microsoft Services'
- Click on button 'Disable All'
Startup Tab:
- Click the button 'Disable All'
- Go back through the list and enable any Microsoft items
Click Ok. It will say “You must restart your computer for some of the changes
made by System Configuration to take effect”. Hit the ‘Restart’ button.
When the PC reboots try to run your test again.
To return back to a normal boot launch msconfig again and choose 'normal startup' on the general tab, click Ok and then reboot the PC.

Oracle Explorer in VS2003 not working

I've installed the latest beta and everything "seems" good until I try to add a new connection in the Oracle Explorer.
I select the server from the pulldown, enter my name and password, and hit the "Test Connection" button, and nothing happens. No error. No lock up. Just nothing. If I hit "Save" the same thing happens - nothing. I can "cancel" and try again but with no help.
My PC was previously installed with client for 8i only, and Toad. All of that still works fine.
During this install I created a new home for 10g as suggested.
The first time I went into Visual Studio, the dropdown list had no entries. I figured out that the new 10g home didnt have a tnsnames file, so I copied my tnsnames file from the 8 home ito the 10 home and went back into Visual Studio. This time the dropdown was populated.
So, I'm trying to use it to create a database connection, and it just doesn't do anything. I've gone into the Net Manager and everything works there. My TOAD still works too.
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Travis

Thanks Jimmy. I sure thought the latest beta was for BOTH 2005 and 2003. But anyway, I've downloaded the older version that says it is only for 2003.
I couldn't find a way to effectively uninstall the 2005 one... I installed the 2003 one in a new Oracle "Home" and I've gotten one step better.....
Now when I try to add a connection, I get an error "Object reference not set to an instance." Not in MY code, mind you, in the code that runs when you just hit the "Test Connection" button.
I'll be searching for answers to THAT....
Ugh...

Well, I compared my classpath between my windows batch file and the
makefile (that comes with the samples installation) on Solaris and realized
that I am using different sets of jars.
So, I removed the extra jars from the makefile to narrow down the
problem. If I remove the /opt/SUNWam/lib/servlet.jar from the makefile,
I can reproduce this problem on the Solaris box as well.
When I include this servlet.jar on my windows machine the program works!
Only jars I have in my classpath are amclientsdk.jar and servlet.jar which
I have copied from my installation (/opt/SUNWam/lib) on the Solaris box.
Just the same way, by copying the am_services.jar, saaj-api.jar, and jaxm-api.jar,
from the Solarix box to the windows machine,
I am also able to pull the assertions from the Access Manager.
I installed Sun Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 on a Solaris 10 machine.
During the installation, I configured to install the Access Manager
in Sun Application Server.
Why do I need to have different set of jars on the windows machine
for the Access Manager client SDK ?
Could you please point me to a download link where I could download
the correct Windows Access Manager Client SDK for
Sun Java System Access Manager 6.0 (Sun JES 2005Q1)?
Thanks.

Just installed ODT 11.1.0.6.20 but can't find Oracle Explorer

I downloaded and installed the latest ODT but there is no Oracle Explorer under the View menu option of VS2008. Installation went fine with no errors. I could see the new debugging options under the Tools menu option. I even uninstalled just the developer's tool and reinstalled it and it's the same.
On my PC there are VS2003, VS2005, VS2008 and I chose VS2008 only for the ODT.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
"Oracle explorer" was the old way ODT worked. The current versions now integrated directly as a data source in the built in Server Explorer instead.
Hope it helps,
Greg
