Oracle ODBC Driver (Client XE) Error

It seems the Oracle ODBC Driver from Client XE is broken.
When I try to create a new ODBC dsn entry from "ODBC Data Source Administrator", an error message is display "Error Cannot Load Resource File sqresus.dll". Do you have the same problem?
FYI: This computer doesn't run the XE server.

One solution is to install and use the Oracle Instant Client with ODBC.

Oracle ODBC Driver Specifc Error Codes

Dear All,
I'm currently working in a migration assignment.I'm looking for a Technical document which consists error codes specific to Oracle ODBC Driver(ver.9.00.11.00).Any help in this regard will be appreciated.
Thanks & Regards,
Sam

There shouldn't be any Oracle ODBC Driver specific error codes. When you're talking about ODBC and error codes, there are two possibilities-
1) You're looking at the SQLState return codes. These are part of an ISO standard (they're more than happy to sell you a copy) and are documented in the ODBC Programmer's Reference from Microsoft as well as most decent ODBC guides.
2) You're looking at the Oracle specific error codes that are returned as the error text in ODBC. These (potentially) depend on the version of the database you're connecting to, rather than the version of the client software you have, and are covered in Oracle's error message manual available at tahiti.oracle.com

Errors when installing Oracle ODBC driver

I've been trying to install the Oracle ODBC driver version 9.2 but each and every time I tried I am getting the following error messages that are preventing the Universal Installer to install it:
There was an error loading the following libraries:
areasQueries
After I hit ok, another message pops:
There was an error loading the following libraries:
WindowGeneralQueries
Does anyone have an idea on how to resolve this problem? I tried downloading from the otn web site various 9.2 releases, 9.2.0.2, 9.2.0.5 and 9.2.0.5.4 but all of them are giving me the same error message. I even uninstalled and reinstalled the JRE but still the same problem occurred.

When you install the Oracle client, a base version of the Oracle ODBC driver will be installed by default (you could customize the install not to install ODBC). Before we tackle the ODBC driver patchset instll, I'd like to make sure that the basic client software installed correctly.
- Were there any errors thrown when you tried to install the 9.2 Oracle client?
- Once you installed the Oracle client, were you able to connect to databases via SQL*Plus?
- Is the Oracle ODBC driver on the list of ODBC drivers in the ODBC Data Source Administrator?
- Can you connect to databases via the base version of the ODBC driver?

MS ODBC or Oracle ODBC driver?

Can anyone tell me which is the correct driver to use when developing front end MS Access 2003 to retrieve and update data on a Open VMS platform with Oracle 8.1.7.3 database?
I have serval Access 2000 databases that run on most WinNT or W2K clients with a couple of W2K Dell exceptions. These Access 2000 db's connect to the Oracle database using linked tables and SQL pass-through queries that work with ODBC Manager-DNS system setup using the Microsoft for Oracle ODBC driver.
Now we are upgrading to Office Pro 2003 so new W2K images have been setup with Oracle 8.1.7 Client. SQL*Plus works on these clients but when I create the System DNS the Access databases return an error "ODBC connection failed". I can however connect with a pass-through query using Oracle's ODBC driver. Not enough time in roll-out plan to change the ODBC connection string in hundreds of Access SPT queries.
Please help!

How to install Oracle ODBC driver...?

TOM,
Presently, I have oracle client version. But there no Oracle ODBC driver in my PC. But, I want to install only Oracle ODBC driver in my PC for ODBC Connectivity purpose.
How to install & where can get the source?

I found out the real answer!!!
On another thread there was a link to the client 10g installation. I download that 480Meg monster. Unzipped the package and launced the setup.exe.
You can then install just the ODBC using the custom option. But, it will not install the tnsnames.ora file. If you have ever done this from a VB app, copy the tsnnames.ora over to the \network\admin folder. It's usually under the oracle\product\client\10.0.2\ folder. Once installed you can launch the ODBC administer either from the link Oracle installs or from the control panel.
Next, you need to make sure the folders where the .dll file is readable to the iis. Change the folder to add whatever permission group you use for iis (I happen to have setup a local users group {machinename\users}. Add them to the entire folder structure (check the embedded folders to ensure they are readable).
While setting up the ODBC, the TSN names will now be listed from the tsnnames.ora file (if properly located). To make the connection work, the userid should be 'userid;pwd=password'. Otherwise the connection failed for me.
Now, if your connection works okay from the odbc test connection, it will probably fail if accessing through iis (like from a .asp page). There are environment path variables that need to be set. Reboot the server for them to get set. Otherwise you will get a ODBC driver can not be loaded do to system error 1114 message.

Memory Leak when I get the SP return refcursor by oracle ODBC driver:

Oracle server:ＨＰ－Ｕｎｉｘ
Oracle Version: 9.2.0.6.0
Application Server: windows2003
Develop tool ： VC++;
Question:
when I get the return refcursor by OLEDB.Oracle, there is not any memory leak and work well. But when I change the driver to ODBC Oralce in OraHome92"
there will be an 56k memory leak.
And in the other hand if I call an store precedure without return ref. Both driver /way can work well.
Can you give me the advice? thanks a lot.

I'm using the oracle ODBC driver 8.05.10 with MFC and client version 8.0.5. In my experience you can't prevent memory leaks with that or earlier versions of the ODBC driver. Client patchkits or service packs for NT or the Visual Studio doesn't solve the problem.
The following code will result in a memory leak with the oracle driver. With every expiration of the timer the leak will grow.
void CTestOdbcOracleDriverDlg::OnTimer(UINT nIDEvent)
TCHAR errString[255];
//open the database with class CDatabase
//use of CRecordset
TRY {
//my table name is AL_ALARME_LOG
pMyRecordset->Open(CRecordset::dynaset,"SELECT * FROM AL_ALARME_LOG",CRecordset::none);
//do something with the data
Sleep(0);
pMyRecordset->Close();
CATCH_ALL(error) {
error->GetErrorMessage(errString,255);
DELETE_EXCEPTION(error);
END_CATCH_ALL
CDialog::OnTimer(nIDEvent);
The same code with the Microsoft ODBC driver
doesn't cause memory leaks.

Oracle ODBC driver with Access Application

I get a problem when using MS-Access 2007 DAO recordset built on table hosted by an Oracle database 10g and connected thru ODBC
The table scheme is :
idPartenaire : number(11)
libelle : varchar2(250)
code : varchar2(5)
actif : number(1)
idCollege :numner(11)
idPartenaire is generated by a sequence read in a trigger fired before insert on th table.
The code I use in Access is :
The query associated with the form is :
"select * from table1"
and the event procedure connected to a button on the form is :
Private Sub Commande0_Click()
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Me.Recordset.AddNew
Me.Recordset!libelle = CStr(Rnd) ' some value
Me.Recordset!code = “”
Me.Recordset!actif = -1
Me.Recordset!idCollege = 1
Me.Recordset.Update
Me.Recordset.Bookmark = Me.Recordset.LastModified
Dim idtemp As Long
idtemp = Me.Recordset.idPartenaire
Me.Requery
Me.Recordset.FindFirst "idPartenaire = " & idtemp
Set rs = Nothing
End Sub
When I run this code, I get an error 3167 (current record is deleted) on the line :
idtemp = Me.Recordset.idPartenaire
If I change the ligne :
Me.Recordset!code = “”
By :
Me.Recordset!code = “xxxx”
or if I comment this line, the error does not appear and I get the right value in idtemp variable.
I tried also with the same table in a SQL Server database table. In this case it works fine in all cases.
So, I seems that the problem is due to the Oracle ODBC driver. I tried with different versions of Oracle ODBC drivers (v10.0.2.4, v11.1.6)
I search on Internet but I have not found any explanation or solution.
Does anybody experiment the same problem (and find a solution)?
Gilles Roussel.

The two lines you quote aren't errors, they're warnings and they're pretty standard fare. If there isn't anything else in the ODBC log, then the driver isn't returning any errors. I'm not sure why Access is failing, so let's look at the client configuration first.
- I assume you've successfully installed the 8.1.6 client on the machine with Access. Were there any errors during the install?
- You say you're using the 8.1.6 version of the Oracle ODBC driver-- can you look to see what the last digit of the version is? If possible, I'd start by downloading the most recent 8.1.6.x ODBC driver from OTN.
- Check which version of the MDAC you have installed (new versions & a version checker are available from Microsoft at <http://www.microsoft.com/data>.
- The ODBC driver you download above will list which versions of the MDAC it is expected to work with. Make sure your version is one of the listed versions.

After Upgrade OBI 10g to 11g:Odbc driver returned an error - SQLExecDirectW

Hi all,
for an OBI upgrade from 10g to 11g I used a RPD and Webcatalog based on a remote machine other than my local machine. Firstable I am making the tests on a Linux Virtual machine, which uses the Sample Lite version from Oracle.
I made the following steps:
1. I upgraded the RPD and Webcatalog. It worked without any errors.
2. I set the static variable BI_EE_HOME via Administration Tool to the path in the Linux machine.
--> Here I am not sure if the set path is correct. It begins with: \bi\ ...\instances\...\coreapplication_obis1 (... : I can't mention here the whole path name).
--> When the OBI Server is installed in Windows, the mentioned static variable points to something like 'C:\<install folder>\...\coreapplication_obis1'
--> Question: is the begin of my set path correct?. I set that pointing to the Linux OBI Server, because the OBI Server is installed on Linux.
Problem:
After login as the user in RPD: Administrator/<Password for my upgraded RPD> I can see the links in the Catalog and the Dashboards links. But I can not see any values, any Reports when going through the links.
For example when trying to see a Dashboard with date 12.02.2011it happens:
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
Status: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] general error.
[nQSError: 43113] Message returned from OBIS.
[nQSError: 43119] Query Failed:
[nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 12154, message: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
at OCI call OCIServerAttach.
[nQSError: 17014] Could not connect to Oracle database. (HY000)
SQL Issued: SELECT "Dimension_-_My Dimension"."MyDimension" saw_0 FROM "Accounting (ACC)" WHERE "Dimension_-_My Dimension"."MyDimension" LIKE 'J%' ORDER BY saw_0
I think its not retrieving the data from the remote database, because I don't have the data of the remote database in my local. I think the OBI Server still is pointing to the local virtual machine Oracle database.
Can anybody tell me what happens here and how can I solve this problem?.
I would appreciate any help....

Hi gerardnico,
I've tried many things and did as in your articles, but I don't have success with that.
These are the things I did:
1. I searched for the file tnsnames.ora in my Linux virtual machine. I could find it in many paths:
/.../Oracle_BI1/network/admin/samples/tnsnames.ora
/.../oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/hs/admin/tnsnames.ora.sample
/.../oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin/tnsnames.ora
/.../oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin/samples/tnsnames.ora
/.../oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin/temp/tnsnames.ora
/.../usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin
in the last path I found the listener.ora as well.
2. I took the tnsnames.ora from the last path, because the ORACLE_HOME points to /.../usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server
3. I edited the tnsnames.ora this way:
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = host_of_the_remote_machine)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = database_name_of_the_remote_machine)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC_FOR_XE))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = database_SID_of_the_remote_machine)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
4. I made a backup of the tnsnames.ora in path /.../Oracle_BI1/network/admin/samples/tnsnames.ora
and copied the tnsnames.ora from /.../usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin to the Oracle_BI1 path
5. I set the TNS_ADMIN to /.../usr/lib/oracle/xe/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/server/network/admin
6. I restarted the BI Server
No success in what I did. The error is still there.
7. I've tried also: sqlplus database_user_remote_machine/database_password_remote_machine@database_SID_remote_machine
I didn't get the connection:
SQL*Plus: Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production on Thu Jun 16 04:36:10 2011

What am I doing wrong here?. I am still thinking that I need the import of the database.
Additional SID=Service-Name=Database-name in the remote machine.

OBIEE: Odbc driver returned an error

Hello All,
While creating an answers on Oracle BI Answers, we are encountering the following error:
Odbc driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).

State: HY000. Code: 10058. [NQODBC] [SQL_STATE: HY000] [nQSError: 10058] A general error has occurred. [nQSError: 17001] Oracle Error code: 29275, message: ORA-29275: partial multibyte character at OCI call OCIStmtFetch. [nQSError: 17012] Bulk fetch failed. (HY000)
You can find the screenshot of the error:

Thanks for your help,

You have a conversion problem with your character set between the database and OBIEE.
You have to set your NSL_LANG as you can see in this thread:
ORA-29275: partial multibyte character
To do this, you can do it in your connexion pool with an alter command. Check here for an image example:

Unable to install 64-bit Oracle ODBC Instant Client on Windows 2008 R2 machine.

I am trying to upgrade the Oracle ODBC driver from the 32-bit version currently installed (ODBC Instant Client Release 10.1.0.5.0, April 2006) to a newer 64-bit version but have not been successful. I have had success at uninstalling and reinstalling the existing 32-bit version package (release 10.1.0.5.0) however when I've tried to install the 64-bit ODBC Instant Client (Release 12.1, December 2012), I run the odbc_install.exe application inside the package. it appears to run without issue/compliant, but then I do not see the 64-bit Oracle ODBC driver anywhere, either if I go via the traditional Administrator Tools --> ODBC Data Sources or if I go to the c:\windows\syswow64\odbcad32.exe route. Further investigation into the ReadMe file (ODBC_IC_Readme_Win.html) reveals that you need the 3 DLLs oci.dll, oraociei11.dll and orannzsbb11.dll which the package does not come with. Where could I obtain the correct version of these DLLs or else where can I get an installation package which already contains them?
Any help with this is greatly appreciated. Thank you

Insert into CLOB fails with Oracle ODBC driver version 9.02.00.65

I tried to insert into CLOB using the latest Oracle ODBC driver 9.02.00.65 and it fails. But the same works with earlier versions of ODBC driver earlier to 9.02.00.65 ie., 9.02.00.63.

Hi,
Since 9.2 has been desupported for error correction you will not be able to download that version from OTN. You should ask whoever is providing the training if their is an alternate version you can use. The only versions that you will be able to download from oracle.com is 10.2 11.1, and 11.2.

How to select active Oracle ODBC Driver programmatically?

Hi,
My application creates ODBC DSN to connect with Oracle 10g database server. I need to find out Oracle Driver installed on the system programmatically. I am trying to read KEY_<PRODUCT NUMBER> registry key and eventually searching ORACLE_HOME value. This helps me in searching Oracle Driver in ODBCINST.INI registry key. (Oracle in OraDb10g_home1)
If multiple Oracle clients are installed on the same system, multiple KEY_<PRODUCT NUMBER> registry keys and oracle drivers would be available. I am not sure which and how to select the current active oracle driver.
Oracle in OraDb10g_home1
Oracle in OraDb10g_home2
Can anybody help me out? Can I use inventory file (inventory.xml) to determince current active home directory? Reading PATH environment variable to identity active home directory would be tedious.

Please look at following thread for answer.

Oracle ODBC Driver 8.1.7.8b causing MFC OpenEx() delay

Hi:
I have installed the Oracle ODBC Driver version 8.1.7.8b on a WINNT 4.0 Workstation with SP6a. I have an MFC test app with the following code:
PostStatus(ERROR_NOERROR, APP_NAME, "Calling OpenEx()");
CDatabase db;
if(db.OpenEx(_T("DSN=MYTESTDSN;UID=USERID;PWD=PASSWORD"), CDatabase::openReadOnly|CDatabase::noOdbcDialog))
     PostStatus(ERROR_NOERROR, APP_NAME, "OpenEx() success,calling Close()");
     db.Close();
} // OpenEx()
else // OpenEx() error
     PostStatus(ERROR_MODERATE, APP_NAME, "Error opening database,OpenEx() failed!");
The above OpenEx call is taking upto 3 seconds to return. When I use Microsoft Oracle ODBC driver, it takes less than 0.5 sec to connect/disconnect.
Any idea why OpenEx() is taking that long? I've compiled this using VC++ 6.0 SP5, on a WIN2K and WINNT system but I get the same result.
Thanks,
Amit.

Installing the Oracle ODBC driver

Is there any way to wrap only the oracle odbc driver in an
install program?

install.
Any help would be much apprecitaed.

I have the same question. The universal installer is too
complicated for simple client application connectivity

Download and installing oracle odbc driver alone

Hi all,
I wanted to find out if I can download just the oracle odbc driver and install in without actually installing oracle database or client version on windows PC.
thank you

You will need to have some Oracle software on your machine for the Oracle ODBC driver to function.
If you can use the 10g client, you can install the 10g Instant Client and the ODBC driver. The Instant Client is a minimal set of libraries that allow components like the Oracle ODBC driver to work. The 10g client, though, is not certified to connect to databases earlier than 8.1.7.
If you have to use an earlier version, you have to install the full Oracle client, which is not a small install, to be able to use the Oracle ODBC driver.
