Oracle Provider for Arabic Data

hi,
i was using "OraOLEDB.Oracle" provider with VB 6.0 for my oracle application uptill now. This provider worked fine untill i wanted to work with arabic data. I have my oracle code page set to arabic with NLS_Lang = Arabic_Kuwait.AR8MSWIN1256
Thus i can enter and retrive arabic data from the SQL interface, but if i try to enter arabic data thro VB, i get junk data.
Pls help.
Thankx in advance.
Vinod

Vinod ,
Try setting the following custom command property for the provider.
myCommand.Properties("NDatatype") = True.
Also set the font of the text field in which you are taking the input
to Tahoma or some font supporting unicode.

Oracle Provider for Membership and Roles not running

Hi Everyone,
I ran the ASP.Net Configuration and select the 'Provider' tab.
When I choose 'Select a single provider for all site management data', only AspNetSqlProvider is shown.
When I choose 'Select a different provider for each feature (advanced)', I see the Oracle Provider for Membership and Roles. I select both then try to enter 'Security' tab. It will hang then come back with this error:
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. "
Any solutions to this...........
Regards
Sid

Thanks for the reply but i stil have the problem...............
My Current machine.config has this to say in that particular section
<connectionStrings>
<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="data source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
<add name="OraAspNetConString" providerName="Oracle.DataAccess.Client" connectionString=" "/>
</connectionStrings>
What can be done.........................in this case

Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0

Hi,
I installed 10g client on my local PC to get access to an ASP application using 10g database. The select always returns no row for a username, therefore, I could not login to the application. But the sqlStatement in SQL*Plus did return a row. More strangely, one script also uses Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0 works without any problem.
In Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0 documentation, it has the following as system requirements:
System Requirements
The following items are required on a system to use Oracle Provider for OLE DB:
1.Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Server 2003
2.Access to an Oracle database (Oracle8i or later)
3. Oracle Net Services
4. Redistributable files provided with Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.1 or higher are required by the provider. These files are available at the Microsoft Web site:
http://www.microsoft.com/data/
5. Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server release 10.1 or higher. This is required for consumers using Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) or COM+.
I think that I might need to download the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC). I went to Microsoft web site, and the latest version for MDAC is 2.8. Anybody has any experience with this? Am I on the right track? I don't want to mess up with my machine by installing MDAC 2.8 if it does not solve the problem.
Thanks, and your early reply is greatly appreciated.
Jane

Well, if some of the required componets were missing, I would imagine you getting an error when trying to connect?
Where is this ASP application actually running?
Is it running on your localhost IIS web server?
If not, any setup on your computer will be irrelevent.
If it is, you need to install MDAC components, and 2.8 is the latest.
If running on your local IIS, did you try to create a very basic ASP page which just creates a connection to the database in question? Does that work?
Do you have ON ERROR statements in your code to bypass any/all SQL errors?
If you create a simple UDL file on your desktop and specify the server/user/password (ater selecting Oracle OLEDB driver), does the connect button work?

Oracle Provider for OLE DB - Security

Hi,
Appreciate if anyone can advise on the security of data when using Oracle Provider for OLE DB to connect from a client application to Oracle database.
Is the data encrypted?
Thanks.
oh2l

First, technical questions should be addressed to an appropriate technical forum. Technologies | Windows | OLE DB would be a good place for this question.
All client applications, regardless of which API they use, rely on TNS (Transparent Network Substrate) to communicate with the database. You can use Oracle Advanced Security to secure the contents of all the Oracle connections on that machine, but by default, all data (other than the password) goes over the wire unencrypted.

Crystal Reports can't add stored procedure using Oracle Provider for OLE DB

Hello,
I am trying to bind an oracle stored procedure to a crystal report through Visual Studio 2008.
This oracle stored procedure returns a ref cursor.
I am using an oracle 11g database (11.2.0.2.0) .
When I use the Oracle Provider For OLE DB driver to bind the store procedure with the report, I get the following error message:
Description : ORA -06550 Line 1 Column 7
PLS 00306 wrong number of types or arguments to the "Strored Procedure Name"
But When I use the Microsoft OLE DB provider for oracle driver, I can bind the stored procedure to the report successfully .
I cannot use the Microsoft OLE DB provider for oracle driver because it does not support the CLOB data type which I plan on having the stored procedure return once I can get everything working.
I have tried setting PLSQLRSET = 1 IN "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\KEY_OraDb11g_home1\OLEDB", but that does not seem to work either
Any assistance would be greatly Appreciated
My Stored procedure is very simple as the moment (I just need to get it working then I'll add more stuff). Here's what it looks like:
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE PROMO.PKG_REPORT as
TYPE OUT_Type IS REF CURSOR;
procedure Report_ThisReport (
p_ThisIdField IN number,
IO_CURSOR IN OUT OUT_Type
end PKG_REPORT;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY PROMO.PKG_REPORT as
procedure REPORT_ThisReport (
p_ThisIdField IN number,
IO_CURSOR IN OUT OUT_Type
IS
BEGIN
OPEN IO_CURSOR FOR
SELECT ThisField
FROM ThisTable
WHERE ThisIdField = p_ThisIdField ;
END REPORT_ThisReport;
end PKG_REPORT;

It seems that some questions posted here on the XE forum are really questions about other Oracle technologies.
Concretely, for you there is an Oracle Provider for OLE DB Forum that is active and a terrific resource for you to use.

Oracle Provider for OLE DB is missing

Hello everyone,
I am a newbie and I am trying to install the SAP IDM 7.2 on windows server 2008 x64 and Oracle 11.2.0.4. The JVM and the oracle client are 64bit. All components are installed on the same server.
In the first step "adding an identity store", the oracle provider for OLE is missing from the list. I have been through many discussions regarding the 32/64-bit oracle client issue with the Identity store. Is there any hope to solve this issue without installing a 32-bit oracle client version?
Thank you
Basel

Hi Basel,
Did you add the file to the OS Classpath or the IDM Classpath?
Also you might need to install the client separately. I think that's what I did. It's been a while since I worked on an Oracle instance.

Matt

ORacle provider for OLEDB

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed Oracle client. I can connect to the database using SQLPLUS. Tnsnames.ora file is in place.
My question is how do I activate Oracle Provider of OLEDB?
I tried to create a udl file can be used to test the connection (referred in the link provided below). To create a udl file on the desktop choose to create a new text document and name it with the .udl extension. But on the Provider page I can't see the option for "Oracle Provider for OLEDB" .
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/ui/flash.html#tab=KBHome(page=KBHome&id=()),(page=KBNavigator&id=(viewingMode=1143&from=BOOKMARK&bmDocTitle=When%20Logging%20into%20FDM%20Receive%20%22Error:%20%20ORA-12154:%20TNS:%20could%20not%20resolve%20service%20name%22&bmDocType=PROBLEM&bmDocDsrc=DOCUMENT&bmDocID=597375.1))
I can see that OLEDB folder exists under <ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME>\oledb
Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Well the installer is not running on MS windows 2008. It just terminates abnormally with some UNknown error.Then please read below thread carefully, try to follow around it.

Oracle Provider for OLEDB for 9.0.1 on WinNT

Is the Oracle Provider for OLEDB in 9.0.1 missing ? I did not
find it in the client nor in the server.
I am using the OTN Download for installation.
Thanks in Advance
--Shirish

You can double-check on the OLE DB forum, but I'm pretty confident the answer is no. You need to install the client so that the OLE DB provider will have the OCI and SQL*Net libraries necessary to actually communicate with the database.

Oracle Provider for OLE DB Error

Hello all.
Can anyone help me understanding why using a statement like
select * from openquery( linkservername, 'select * from table' )
fails with
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: ]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' IRowset::GetData returned 0x80004005: ].
On the sql server side, when using the Oracle Provider for OLE DB, but success when I change the linked server to use Microsoft Oracle Provider for OLE DB? It makes no sense to me. Sometimes, when I add a rownum <= 100 it does work with the Oracle OLE DB Provider. As you can see, I installed Oracle Client 10g on the sql server running version 2000, and created a linked server to an Oracle server running Oracle 10.2.4.0. The queries work fine with the Microsoft driver, but fail with the above message when using the oracle native driver.
For your information, here's the select @@version from the sql server database.
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.760 (Intel X86) Dec 17 2002 14:22:05 Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
Just wanted to know what might the problem as using the Microsoft driver the session doesn't seem to use FCF.
Any other information you may need, just let me know.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm not familiar with that particular error, but if you're not already using 10204 oledb/client, I'd certainly do that as a first step. There were lots of issues fixed in our oledb provider since 10201.
Hope it helps,

Installing a VB application using Oracle Provider for OLEDB

Hi all,
I have a corporate VB application that uses the Oracle 9i client.
The Oracle Client is on a network disk, so all my clients will not need to install on their client machines.
I am using Wise for Windows Installer to install the application on each client machine.
I need to include on the installation package the "Oracle Provider for OLEDB" files.
How can I do this?
Thank you all,
Ardates Cruz.

The standard way to use the unmanaged Oracle.DataAccess is to install an Oracle client on any machine that wants to use the application.
It is possible to avoid that installation by including a bunch of DLLs and some other files in the application, but it's far more cumbersome than using the managed client. Here's a link to get you started on that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13721025/deploying-and-configuring-odp-net-to-work-without-installation-with-entity-frame

Large Value problem with Oracle Provider for 9.2.0.7.0 and 10.1.0.4.0

Hi,
There is table having single column "SCORE" as shown below.
| SCORE |
|9.0000E+33 |
|8.0000E+33 |
|7.0000E+33 |
|6.0000E+33 |
I am trying to fetch column SCORE from above table in database. The type of column SCORE is NUMBER. With Oracle Provider for OLE DB 9.0.1.0.1 everything works fine.
But when I use 9.2.0.7.0 or 10.1.0.4.0 , Recordset::rawGetRows() returns -2147217845. Is there is any limit on value retrived using Recordset::rawGetRows() in newer versions of Oracle Provider for OLE DB?
Please help.
Thanks and Regards,

Hi,
Yes, i've take it off but i still have the same error...
Anyway, like the, the people from hardware, were able to recover the 32Bit Oracle9.2 system, what do you think of use the old system to make the export, and then import into the new one 64Bit and Oracle10.2 ?
Homogeneous system copy by r3load method?
Is it possible right!?
More easy and a cleaner installation?
