Oracle ODBC Rdb Driver

Hello,
We want to install Oracle ODBC Rdb Driver 2.10.13.00 but we can't find this driver for XP.
We are now using the driver 3.00.02.06 but we have a lot of problem.
Could you please Help me ?

You probably want to contact Oracle support for that. I don't recall ever seeing RDB-related downloads on OTN.

  • Problems moving ODBC RDB driver from 2.1.13 to 3.x

    Hello. I'm new.
    I doubt that anyone can assist us in our situation, but I can't find any help anywhere else.
    We've been using Forms (see info below, please) for years with ODBC for RDB driver version 2.10.13.00. We would like to move to ODBC for RDB driver version 3.x (3.2 is the latest, I believe) for several reasons.
    However, when I run our application against a data source using the new driver, it crashes quite frequently when committing changes. I do not know why. I get a win32 exception dialog box, and nothing else (no forms dump file).
    BUT when I turn on SQL Tracing, everything works just fine! When I turn on Driver Logging, it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't, depending on which driver logging setting I use.
    When it fails, the last line in the rdbodbc.log file is...
    .._uCnvBinaryToChar 0X00000000
    or...
    bccSQLExecuteLckd
    or...
    the dml statement
    .0X03A27DF8: INSERT INTO ORGANIZATION ( ORGANIZATION_ID,ORGANIZATION_NA
    .ME,ORGANIZATION_NAME_2,ADDRESS_1,ADDRESS_2,CITY,STATE,ZIP_1,ZIP_2,EMAI
    .L_ADDRESS,REMARK_1,REMARK_2 ) VALUES ( ?, ?,NVL( ?,' '),NVL( ?,' '),N
    .VL( ?,' '),NVL( ?,' '),NVL( ?,'XX'),NVL( ?,0),NVL( ?,0),NVL( ?,' '),NV
    .L( ?,' '),NVL( ?,' ') ) RETURNING DBKEY INTO ?
    ...depending on the driver logging setting.
    One particular form always seems to crash on a simple insert statement within a block's On-Insert trigger. The block contains only items with a number or char data type. I have made a great many code variations and it doesn't make it work, but I can get it to work if I place an alert message right before the insert statement or a win_api_utility.sleep(...) statement. And as I mentioned before, it works fine if I turn on SQL Tracing.
    So, I am not sure if there is some known issue with Forms and ODBC RDB driver 3.x that we can work around, or if Forms 6i just won't work with the newer driver. Our application contains hundreds of often complex forms, so any fix would have to be relatively simple to implement.
    Thanks very much.
    Forms 6i (6.0.8.13.0) - running client/server
    Oracle RDB database (7.1)
    Windows XP
    OCA 6.0.5.35.0

    Follow-up for anyone interested since apparently no one else in the internet world has this problem. :)
    When I activate OCA_DEBUG_ERROR (i.e., set registry OCA_DEBUG_ERROR = TRUE under \\HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE), everything works, but I do see this debug message: "OCA-30002 ubofgrd function not supported", which does not get logged when I use the older driver. So, again, if I slow things down enough, it works, but it won't work without logging/tracing turned on. An OCA bug, I suppose?

  • Odbc rdb driver v3.1.0.3 not able to download

    hi, I've been trying to download the odbc driver rdb v3.1.0.3 from the oracle site - it downloads the zip file but can't open it with winzip - gets an "old archive file try downloading again" - any one have any ideas? or where I can download from another site? Thanks in advance!!

    the file may be broken.
    check the size of the zip file, if it is too small, it may be not download successfully.

  • MS Access and ODBC 80510 driver

    When I import tables into my Access database the queries work fine however when I link to the tables using Oracle
    ODBC 80510 driver the following selection criteria command does not work. [Forms]![Get Jobs By contact No form]![Combo2], if I use a literal value like "abc" it works. It appears that Oracle running the server does not understand the command, therefore no records are selected.
    Can any one help?
    Thanks, John

    You need to create an ODBC data source to your Oracle 8 database,
    and test it. Then in Access, use the get external data option
    under the file menu. Select ODBC data sources, and pick the data
    source you created in step 1. After you login, you should see
    all the tables in your Oracle schema. You should use Oracle to
    create the tables in Oracle, access will do it, but it will allow
    lower case and spaces, and Oracle doesn't like that.

  • Oracle RDB Driver fails with JDBC/ODBC Bridge

    Has anyone experienced problems using the latest Oracle RDB
    Driver (3.0.2.0) with the JDBC/ODBC Bridge.
    We have been using the Oracle ODBC Driver for RDB (2.10.17)
    successfully on NT, but it is not supported on W2K. The new
    drivers work fine for Access etc., but fail with the bridge.
    Specifically, you can step thru a result set, but getObject()
    returns null for all fields.
    Any suggestions?

  • Oracle ODBC Driver for Rdb 2.10.11.00 on  Windows 2008 64-bit

    Hello,
    Our application runs on Windows 2000 Professional SP4 and connects to RDB databases on Alpha Open/VMS via Oracle ODBC Driver fro Rdb release 2.10.11.00.
    We are migrating to Windows Server 2008 64-bit environment.
    We tested both recent Rdb ODBC driver releases (3.3.0.0 and 3.3.1.0) but we are getting errors intermittently when the application loads data from certain tables. Trace logs show no errors which could indicate the origin of the issue.
    We want to use the old (2.10.11.00) release but it cannot be installed only on the Win 2008 32-bit version.
    Can anyone suggest how to install the Oracle ODBC Driver for Rdb release 2.10.11.00 on a Windows 2008 64-bit Server?
    Thanks in advance,
    Momir

  • Oracle RDB driver – Version 3.01.00.01 Connectivity Issue

    I have a SQL Server 2000 extended stored procedure connecting to an Oracle RDB data server via an ODBC connection (using Oracle RDB driver – Version 3.01.00.01). The SQL Server 2000 runs on a Windows 2000 Server.
    This extended stored procedure opens up multiple database connections and maintains them for processing. Usually, everything runs fine.
    However, every so often, we have connectivity issues. What happens is as follows:
    When we bring a station down and then try to reconnnect, our connection is denied, and we get the error: "recv() unexpected close Ret 0 Err#0 UNKNOWN Unknown WINSOCK Error 0". (This error is logged by the .dll running in the SQL Server processing space.) From the first time we receive a connectivity error like this until the Oracle RDB box is rebooted, we cannot establish another new ODBC connection to that Oracle RDB box --- whether we are trying to establish it programmatically or just via a "test connection" in the ODBC dialogue on the SQL Server box.
    We can, however, establish an ODBC connection to another, identically configured, Oracle RDB box from the SQL Server box (without restarting the SQL Server box).
    Has anyone had experience with instable connections from Windows system using the Oracle RDB driver to connect to the Oracle RDB? If not, can anyone point me in a direction that would help me research this? I am more familiar with SQL Server than Oracle, and the Oracle DBA on the other end isn't very accessible.
    I'd really appreciate any help anyone can give me.
    Thanks!

    I got same error.. Are you already solve that problem? how? please help me. Thanks

  • Specifying "ARRAYSIZE" in Oracle ODBC Driver for 7.3.4

    Is it possible to specify the ARRAYSIZE parameter in the Oracle ODBC Driver for Oracle 7.3.4?
    Other vendors provide this facility when creating the data source using ODBC administrator.
    If anyone can clarify, it will be a great help.

  • Oracle ODBC Driver, Release 3.0.2.1 for Windows

    Dear All,
    in reference to "Known Software Problems" section on the page ...
    http://otn.oracle.com/products/rdb/htdocs/rdb_odbc/odbc_v3.0.2.1.html#known_soft
    Problem number 3 is as follows:
    3. The ODBC Driver detects "ROWID" or "DBKEY" values by their names.
    If you rename such a column, as in the statement
    SELECT LAST_NAME, DBKEY AS FOO FROM EMPLOYEES;
    the driver will not recognize that the column is a DBKEY and will not
    properly present the data for the application.
    Does anyone know if this problem will be fixed in release V3.0.2.2
    or when if not in 3.0.2.2 ?
    Thanks in advance
    Derek

    Note that this problem applies to Oracle's ODBC driver for RDB, not to the Oracle ODBC driver. The former is used to connect to an RDB database, the latter to an Oracle database.
    If you're interested in information about Oracle's ODBC driver for RDB, you probably want to contact technical support, as there aren't a whole lot of people in this forum using RDB. My recollection is that it's been quite some time since a new version of the RDB ODBC driver has been released-- I don't know if there is even any development being done on it.

  • Oracle Rdb Driver 3.1.0.0 problem with blobs

    I am trying to convert an MsAccess application to use an MsAccess front end and an Oracle Rdb back end.
    I've created the test database under VMS and can successfully link to the Oracle Rdb tables from MSAccess 2000. One of the main reasons for converting to Oracle Rdb is to be able to store large word documents in the database. I was able to do that using Oracle rdb Driver v 3.00.02.06. I recently converted to Oracle Rdb Driver version 3.1.0.0 and can no longer access the Blob field containing the Word document. MsAccess now sees this field as type ‘Binary’ and I keep getting an ‘invalid field type’ error. (with 3.00.02.06 this field was seen by MsAccess as an ‘Ole Object’ and the getchunk and appendchunk functions for getting and saving a blob worked reasonably well).
    Is this a bug in 3.1.0.0 or is there some way to get MsAccess to recognize this Binary field type?

    I suspect you'll need to contact Oracle support on this. There aren't, to my knowledge, any RDB folks around here.

  • Problem with Oracle ODBC Driver on Windows 7

    Hi,
    Please help with this problem I have with a Windows 7 machine. I have installed Oracle Client 11g on my Windows 7 machine but when I want to create an ODBC Data Source, I cant find any driver for oracle. How can I resolve this issue? I need the data source for an application to work and I cant figure out what is happening. Someone please help!

    There's a dedicated Oracle ODBC forum:
    ODBC
    As this forum deals with connections from Oracle to foreign data stores it would be better to close this thread and post it again in the ODBC forum.

  • Oracle ODBC  - Internal Error - unable to initialize NLS during driver load

    I'm having some trouble with my ODBC connections which I hope someone can please help me with!
    About 6 weeks ago all was working as normal.
    As far as I know there have been no updates to the ORacle DB, the Windows XP operating system or the ODBC Drivers.
    Today when I opened access and visual case 2 to connect to Oracle I was at first greeted with a:
    unable to connect SQLState=IM004 SQL_HANDLE_ENV
    error. ODBC also kept crashing.
    I restarted the computer and was confronted with a different error:
    odbc SQLSTate 08004 ORA 12154 TNS could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    I was able to fix this error by setting the environment variable TNS_ADMIN in windows xp environment variables. I'm extremely confused about how this happened though as it was working and I don't think anything has changed.
    I was then able to connect to the database via Microsoft Access but when I opened Visual Case 2 and tried to make an update, I was confronted with the following error:
    Oracle ODBC Driver - internal error - unable to initialize NLS during driver load
    I looked in the registry at:
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\KEY_OraClient10g_home1
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\KEY_OraClient10g_home2
    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Oracle\KEY_OraDb10g_home1
    and NLS_LANG was set to "AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8MSWIN1252" in all 3 places.
    (Though KEY_OraClient10g_home2 only had 4 entries as opposed to KEY_OraClient10g_home1's 13 entries)...
    Since I made those changes I can no longer connect through Access.
    I just receive a ODBC - connection to 'xxx' failed
    Advice greatly appreciated!!!!
    Edited by: user11150264 on Aug 25, 2009 10:21 PM

    Actually it sort of does...
    I switched the ODBC connection to use instant client and now it's all working again.
    The biggest mystery is what changed to make it suddenly stop working the old way...
