Oracle Ole DB 8.1.7.3.0

Hello,
I suspect that one of our applications is having a memory leak when connecting to oracle database. The application is developed in VB6 and using OraOleDB 8.1.7.3.0
I´ve seen a very old post Re: COM+ and OLEDB - memory leak in OCI dlls where someone talks about memory leaks and about a version 8.1.7.3.2 that corrects an existing memory leak.
Can someone confirm me this ?
Thanks a lot
Bruno

We are also facing same problem Is anybody from Oracle Help Us ?

How deploy Oracle OLE DB Provider?

What information is available to enable one to set up a simple deployment scenario for a Delphi 6.0 program that
utilizes the Oracle OLE DB Provider? (What DLL files are needed, what [if any] registry settings must be made,
what configuration files are needed, etc..) It is not viable to expect the end user to download the 45 MB file from
the Oracle site in order to obtain the functionality of the Oracle OLE DB Provider.
Thanks for your help!

Put the Oracle Installation CD on the network and then install the Client version of Oracle to everyone's pc.
I know there are deployment wizards for VB and VC++ but this is the best i think as there are lots of dll's and it gets messy.
They will also need the tnsnames.ora entry.
Make sure you have the right licensing agreement with Oracle.

Oracle OLE DB provider truncates LONG field's data

I am using Visual Basic 6, Oracle 8.1, and use ADO to connect to the Oracle database.
I have a problem with OLE DB provider OraOLEDB.Oracle reading a LONG field (MEMO field in Access).
When I tried to get the value of the LONG field, it truncates it to 100 characters.
I do not have the problem using Microsoft Oracle OLE DB Provider MSDAORA.
This is the Oracle table:
CREATE TABLE tblA (
tblA_KEY NUMBER(10) NOT NULL,
tblA_MEMO LONG NULL
This is the VB 6 code:
Set rs = New ADODB.Recordset
rs.Open ssql, adoConn, adOpenForwardOnly, adLockReadOnly
sMemo = "" & rs.Fields("tblA_Memo") -->> sMemo contains only the first 100
characters of tblA_Memo
How can I fix this?
Thank you.

Thanks. I assume you are talking about 9.2 version of Oracle, right?
While we are in the subject of LONG field. In Oracle 8.1, I can not do the following sql stt:
select * from tblA where tblA_Memo like '%york%'
It gives me the error "ORA-00932: inconsistent datatypes"
Can I do this in Oracle 9.2 ?
Thank you.

Oracle OLE DB Provider / Stored Procedure REF CURSOR errror

Post Author: robfurrball
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
All,I'm out of ideas on this and would appreciate any suggestions.I'm trying to use Crystal XI to connect to an Oracle 9i database using the Oracle OLE DB Provider (required to use this provider by a 3rd party program that fires off the report).If I connect using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle, the report will return data. When connecting with the Oracle OLE DB Provider, I get the following:Database Connector Error: 'ADO Error Code: 0x80040e14

Description: ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:

The procedure's only parameter is an IN OUT SYS_REFCURSOR, and the Oracle OLE DB Provider is version 9.2.0.7.0 Thanks,Rob

Summary: After going
back and forth with Business Objects support they ruled that it was an issue
with the provider itself, recommended I contact Oracle for resolution, and
closed the case before I could comment back to them. I was unable to send this response to their
support team, so I'm posting it here in hopes that I can save others time/money
in the future.
My Response -
I appreciate your input and would have liked to comment further on the case management system before you closed the case. I'm a little surprised and disappointed that you recommend I contact Oracle directly about this issue.I would imagine that a company as large as Business Objects would have much better results dealing with Oracle to resolve an issue compared to an individual.Also, since you are able to connect to other objects (such as a table) in Crystal Reports using that provider, I would expect that you would want customers to be able to connect to stored procedures using it as well. Otherwise, it would seem appropriate to either alert customers of this defect through documentation, public message boards, and forums.Using Crystal to pull data from stored procedures in other databases and data providers made me think that was a viable option for this project. Since it was not documented as a limitation of Crystal and the provider, it has cost my organization a great deal of time and money trying to troubleshoot an issue I would have expected to be caught in Crystal Reports' internal quality assurance testing.------ This is the final note I received on my support case: -
Please note that the statement used to execute a procedure within ODBC/OLE DB is different from the native 'Oracle Server' statement.In ODBC or OLE DB, the call is '{CALL "SCHEMANAME"."TEST_PROCEDURE"(3)}' , when using native 'Oracle Server' the call is 'BEGIN "SCHEMANAME"."TEST_PROCEDURE"(:TEST_CURSOR, 1); END ;'In ODBC or OLE DB, the cursor is still used however it is not listed within the SQL Statement as in the Native connection. This is the behavior from Crystal Reports 9 forward that the cursor is not shown through ODBC/OLE DB.In addition to that as the issue is only with the Oracle OLE DB provider and I would suggest you to contact Oracle about this issue, since the issue occurs outside of Crystal Reports when using QTADO with a standard call, so it is not an issue between Crystal Reports and Oracle.The issue is only with Oracle OLE DB provider as the same Oracle stored procedure call works within QTADO with the MS Oracle OLE DB provider.As the issue is with the OLE DB Provider and not with Crystal Reports, we may not be able to proceed further. Hence, I am closing this case from Case Management System.

Installing Oracle OLE provider?

Dear All.
Is there a simple installer (MSI package or exe) that directly installs the Oracle OLE provider on Windows Systems?
I used the XEClient for 10g to do that but it installs too many things that I don't need, I only need my application to connect to Oracle database from another machine that doesn't have Oracle installed.
When I installed the XEClient, my application works fine for both 10g and 11g on Windows 2003, but when I tried my application on Windows 2008 using the same provider. I get an error citing that the Provider may not be installed properly.
I have searched the net and all I found directs me to install the Oracle Client which installs too much things, I am asking if there is a way to install only the required DLLs for the OLE DB provider without using the Oracle Universal Installer.

I've had no problems under Windows 98 with OO4O. Sounds like
either you haven't got SQL*Net 2.3 or Net 8.0 installed. Check
the network software version required by your version of OO4O
(some are 2.3 others 8.0). If you can connect with SQL*Plus it
may also be that C:\ORAWIN95\BIN is not on the path.

Crystal Reports: How to change Oracle OLE DB server at runtime

Post Author: dvlasman
CA Forum: Data Connectivity and SQL
I'm using a rpt made with Crystal Reports 8.0.1 and VB 6. The report was made using the Microsoft OLE DB provider for Oracle. What I want to do is change to Oracle server / database the report is connecting to at run time before the report is displayed. I am using the Crystal Report Engine 8 Object Library (cpeaut32.dll), not the ocx.After creating the report object:Dim CrystalReport As CRPEAuto.ReportI open my report and discard saved data:'Open The ReportSet CrystalReport = CrystalApplication.OpenReport(msReportSource)CrystalReport.DiscardSavedDataConst sDBServer = "ORCL.SERVER" 'My TNS name for the Oracle ServerConst sDatabase = "ORCL.SERVER" 'I'm not sure what this value should beConst sUID = "system"Const sPwd = "manager"I was then going to change the database connection one of two ways:1:Dim objDatabaseTable As CRPEAuto.DatabaseTableFor Each objDatabaseTable In CrystalReport.Database.Tables Call objDatabaseTable.SetLogOnInfo(sDBServer, sDATABASE, sUID, sPWD) If (Not objDatabaseTable.TestConnectivity) Then Debug.Print "Database failed connection: " & objDatabaseTable.Name End IfNextSet objDatabaseTable = Nothing2:call crystalapplication.LogOnServer("pdsoledb.dll","MSDAORA.1",sDATABASE,sUID,sPWD)Neither of these two way gets me a successful connection. What am I doing wrong, and which is the preferred method to use?ThanksDean

Did you get a resolution to your problem? I cannot dynamically change the datasource location in .NET using CR XI via OLE DB for Oracle. I get "This field name is not known." messages and when I try using the set datasource location in the designer tool, the mapping dialog box comes up with no fields in the right box. Thanks, Brian

Using Oracle OLE DB provider (with ADO) generates error: ORA-01843 while using date

Were using OLE DB provider in order to connect to our Oracle 9i database. When executing the following query in a SQL Plus window I will get the correct results:
SELECT gum_seu_syo_id, seu_userid, seu_first_name, seu_last_name
From group_user_mapping, security_users
Where gum_seu_syo_id = seu_syo_id
and gum_term_date > '8/19/2002'
and gum_seg_syo_id = 11
However if will execute the same query from the our application (VB using ADO) I will get the following error:
ORA-01843: Not a valid month
Checking with our Oracle DBA we made sure my registry is correct and includes the correct format under HEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ORACLE\ORACLE_HOME,
where the key is NLS_DATE_FORMAT (of type REG_EXPAND_SZ) with the value:
MM/DD/YYYY HH:MI:SS AM
I also run the following query in a SQL Plus window:
select sysdate from dual;
and got the following result:
08/19/2002 10:27:20 AM
which shows that the data format is correct.
Trying to switch between the month and day in the query (put '19/8/2002') worked from the application but generated ORA-01843: Not a valid month in the SQL Plus window.
Any ideas?

try using
to_char function
for eg.
select * from emp where to_char(hiredate,'dd/mm/yy') > '20/3/83'.

How to use Binary data in Oracle(OLE DB)?

I have the Oracle 8.1.6, I can store VARCHAR2 or CBLOB into oracle database(by DBTYPES_STR). But can NOT store binary data(DBTYPES_BYTES)such as RAW, BLOB into database. My platform is VC++,ATL,OLE DB, consumer. I try to use the Oracle tools to do that, but do not successful? Can you tell me how to store data into binary column in oracle?
Thank you

Better to trim those values after the form submission.
Once you put them into form,
user may also makes mistake by hitting space, right?
Also, by trimming all form fields after submission, you will
be sure that your DB is clean... no whitespaces on it.
Well unless someone insert data directly onto it :)

Developer 9i suite & Oracle OLE DB provider conflict on XP Professional

On a Windows XP Professional I installed Oracle 9i Developer suite Release 2 (9.0.2.0.0.) and it works fine.
After that I installed the Oracle Provider for OLE DB 9.2.1.0 on the same machine and then after installing the OLE DB provider I get an error with Oracle Reports that will not open and gives me an illegal memory address error. Also I get another error with Forms.
Is there any conflict in installing on the same XP machine 9i Developer suite (9.0.2.0.0) and the Oracle Provider for OLE DB 9.2.1.0 ?

Append hint + Oracle Ole DB Provider

Hi everybody!
This is my first post here in this great forum! ;-)
I have a problem using Append hint with Oracle OleDB Provider and I've been searching internet for an answer without any luck.
I'm trying to use Append hint with ADO + Oracle OleDB Provider (OraOLEDB.Oracle.1), like in the SQL below:
INSERT /*+APPEND*/
INTO my_table(field1, field2, field3)
SELECT 0 field1, v.field2, v.field3)
FROM my_second_table v
The problem: Oracle is still creting log for this INSERT (It is working like there was no Append hint).
If I use the same SQL statement with Microsoft Ole DB Provider for Oracle, the Append hint works as expected (log is not created), but doesn't work at all with Oracle DB Provider.
Trace shows me that the SQL sentence is ok (the append hint is there!).
I've tried Oracle servers 9.2 and/or 10g, and the problem is the same.
Question: Does Append hint work with Oracle OleDB Provider? If yes, why it is not working? Something related with connection properties?
Any help will be much appreciated!
Thanks in advance.

Oracle OLE DB Provider for 8.0.5

Does anyone know where I can find Oracle's OLE DB Provider that is compatible with 8.0.5 ?
We are converting the front-end of an application to ASP, and the Microsoft driver doesn't allow PL/SQL functions to be executed directly, which will cause a major headache as this is how most of the back-end is written!
Any help much appreciated,
G

Key here is multiple Oracle homes. You can install different Oracle versions in different Oracle homes and use a particular Oracle home based on your application requirement. You should not install 8i client in a 8.0.x Oracle home. Please refer to Oracle documentation on multiple Oracle homes feature.
