Oracle XE fails on W2K8 R2

I actually have a Database ORACLE XE on W2K3 R2 x64, nevertheless when I install ORACLE XE on W2K8 R2 it fails, I need to migrate OS.
I need a step by step to install correctly on Oracle XE on W2K8 R2 Foundation or a workaround that supporting the operating system W2K8R2.

Which version, 10g? Its older than Win7 or 2008R2, and note that 2008 is not listed in the 10g windows install requrirements.
That being said ... try a right click/run as administrator on the installer program.
Without a bit more info besides "it didn't work" we'll have a tough time trying to help. Any error messages? Check the installer log, its location is mentioned in the install section of the docs.
http://www.oracle.com/pls/xe102/homepage
Once you get the [drive:]\oraclexe installation completed, as long as they are both 10g (or 11g, both same versions) you can shut down the instance, shutdown the instance on the 2003 box, and copy the data and control files. If its same drive you don't even need to fuss with updating the instance parameter file.

(All succesful with --> ========================*Step 3 (try 2)*==============)
1.- Ok, if you got every thing like above the last thing you need is follow the next link:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/fusion_middleware/im1014/oim/obe12_using_gtc_for_reconciliation/using_the_gtc.htm
Go to: "Modifying the GTC" ( just do this part)
Restart the OIM and Enjoy it.
Good day Amigo.
And don't forget on step three:
Click the Edit icon of the User ID field of the OIM - User data set.

Oracle login failed.

I'm very fresh to Oracle, here comes a question (maybe very stupid, :-)....)
I'm installing an application which requires an user account in Oracle databse prior excuting the installation. However, I got an error message saying "Oracle login failed" with the particular SID and User name. I'm sure the SID and User name are correct. I can even use the User name to login using "sqlplus" command. Is this a problem of user privilege? Is this something related to Oracle? How can I find out?
Thanks a lot.

It looks like your application installation process can't connect to the database.
In order to connect to a database, I guess your application installation need to compose a connection string based on your input. Usually an Oracle connection string consist of Hostname, Port, SID and user/pass, did you supply all these?
If you are doing installation on the same server, application could also get most of connection information from environment variables ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID in which case you only need to supply username/password.
You might want to find out which method the installation process using.

Calling web service from oracle forms fails with ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR

Problem Description:
I'm following the steps as per the doc:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/forms/htdocs/10gr2/howto/webservicefromforms/ws_10_1_3_from_forms.html
to create a java stub to call external web service and then use java importer in oracle forms to call this web service from oracle forms.
WSDL for external web service used is http://www.webservicex.net/CurrencyConverter.asmx?wsdl
Calling the web service using JDeveloper works fine but from Oracle Forms returns ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR; Unable to call out to Java, Invalid object type for argument 1
The code from oracle form to call web service is as below:
DECLARE
jo ora_java.jobject;
rv ora_java.jobject;
ex ora_java.jobject;
outString varchar2(2000);
BEGIN
jo:= CurrencyConvertorStub.new;
--This will get the exchange rate from US Dollars to UK Sterling.
rv:= CurrencyConvertorStub.ConversionRate(jo,'CAD','USD');
message (float_.floatValue(RV));
EXCEPTION
WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
message('Unable to call out to Java, ' ||ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
WHEN ORA_JAVA.EXCEPTION_THROWN then
ex := ORA_JAVA.LAST_EXCEPTION;
outString := Exception_.toString(ex);
message(outString);

Any help/ideas on this is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Yes, it is the message line - so basically this call fails => rv:= CurrencyConvertorStub.ConversionRate(jo,'CAD','USD'); and control goes in the exception block
WHEN ORA_JAVA.JAVA_ERROR then
message('Unable to call out to Java, ' ||ORA_JAVA.LAST_ERROR);
Below is the code from java stub that was generated using JDeveloper by using web services stub/skeleton and associating the WSDL
public Double ConversionRate(String FromCurrency, String ToCurrency) throws Exception

Kerberos Authentication between Sharepoint 2013 Foundation - SSRS 2012 - Oracle 11g failing with ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed

I have set up SharePoint 2013 Foundation, SharePoint Reporting Services and SQL Server 2012 in a single server. I then created a Data Connection to Oracle 11g. Upon testing the connection, it throws the error “ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed”.
Given below are the steps of installation and configuration.
Installation till basic authentication:
The installation has been done in a
single server.
Installed SQL Server 2012 (Developer version).
Selected only the following features:
Database Engine Services
Analysis Services
Reporting Services – SharePoint
Reporting Services Add-in for SharePoint Products
Management Tools – Basic
- Management Tools - Complete
2. Installed SQL Server 2012 SP1.
3. Installed SQL Server 2012 SP2.
  4. Installed SharePoint Foundation 2013.
5. Created web application (without Kerberos; we did not even create the SPNs).
      The application pool has been configured to use Reporting Services account since it is a single server installation. This account has been registered as a managed
account.
6. Created Site Collection.
7. Verified that Reporting Services is not installed.
8. Installed SharePoint Reporting Services from SharePoint 2013 Management Shell.
9. Verified that Reporting Services is installed.
10. Created a new SQL Server Reporting Services Service Application and associated the Web Application to the new SQL server Reporting Services Service Application.
11. Verified that SQL Server Reporting Services Service Application and its proxy have started. Reset IIS.
12. Created a Site.
  13. Created a Data Connection library with “Report Data Source” content type.
14. Created a Report Model library with “Report Builder Model” content type.
15. Created a Report library with “Report Builder Report” content type.
16. Uploaded an SMDL to the Report Model library.
  17. Added the top level site to Local Intranet instead of as a Trusted Site in the browser settings.
  18. Able to create and save a report using Report Builder.
Hence, basic authentication is working and SSRS is able to connect to Oracle database.
Next we have to configure Kerberos settings between SharePoint and SQL Server.
Implementation of Kerberos authentication
In the Report Server machine, opened the file C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\WebServices\Reporting\rsreportserver.config and added the Authentication Types of RSWindowsNegotiate
and RSWindowsKerberos.
2. Set up the following SPNs.
               a) SQL Server Database Engine service (sqlDbSrv2):
                setspn -S MSSQLSvc/CER1110:1433 CERDEMO\sqlDbSrv2
                setspn -S MSSQLSvc/CER1110.cer.demo.com:1433 CERDEMO\sqlDbSrv2
             In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any service (Kerberos only)".
b) Account: SharePoint Setup Admin account (spAdmin2)
     setspn -S HTTP/CER1110:9999 CERDEMO\spAdmin2
                setspn -S HTTP/CER1110.cer.demo.com:9999 CERDEMO\spAdmin2
                In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any  service
(Kerberos only)".
c) Account: SQL Server Reporting Service account (sqlRepSrv2)
                   setspn -S HTTP/CER1110 CERDEMO\sqlRepSrv2
                   setspn -S HTTP/CER1110.cer.demo.com CERDEMO\sqlRepSrv2
                   In the Delegation tab of the account, selected "Trust this user for delegation to any service
(Kerberos only)".
3. Configure the Web Application to use “Negotiate (Kerberos)”.
4. Logged in as SharePoint Administrator to the SharePoint server and opened the top level site in the IE browser.
     The Event Viewer logged the login process for the SharePoint Administration account as
Negotiate and not Kerberos.
5. Implemented Kerberos for Oracle database and client.
     Able to connect to the Oracle database via Kerberos authentication using SQL Plus.
6. Turn on Windows Firewall.
7. While testing the site's data connection using Kerberos settings, got the error
“Can not convert claims identity to windows token. This may be due to user not logging in using windows credentials.”
      Note: The Data Connection for basic authentication still worked.
8. Created a Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2).
9. Started the Claims to Windows Token Service.
10. Registered the Claims to Windows Token Service account as a Managed Account.
11. Changed the Claims To Windows Token Service to use the above managed account.
12. Verified that the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) is automatically added to the WSS_WPG local group on the SharePoint box.
      Note: The Reporting Services service account is also a part of the WSS_WPG local group.
13. Added the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) to the Local Admin Group on the machine having the SharePoint App Server.
14. In the SharePoint box, added the Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) in the Act as part of the operating system policy right.
15. The Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) has the WSS_WPG group configured.
      When the C2WTS service was configured to use the managed account Claims to Windows Token Service account (spC2WTS2) earlier, the spC2WTS2 account was automatically
added to the WSS_WPG local group on the SharePoint box. The WSS_WPG group in turn is configured in c2wtshost.exe.config file.
16. Verified that the Reporting Services account is a managed account and part of the WSS_WPG group.
17. Earlier Service Application Pool - SQL Server Reporting Services App Pool service was associated with the SharePoint Admin account.
      Changed this to associate the Reporting Service account with the Service Application Pool - SQL Server Reporting Services App Pool service.
18. Changed the delegation of the Reporting Service account to constrained delegation with Protocol Transitioning. This is because we are transitioning from one authentication scheme (Claims) to another (Windows Token).
      For this, the delegation has been changed to "Trust this user for delegation to specified services only". Also, selected the sub radio button "Use
any authentication protocol". Selected the Oracle Kerberos service as the service to which this account can present delegated credentials.
      Note: The Reporting Service account already had an HTTP SPN.
19. Next, the goal was to make the Claims To Windows Token Service account match the Reporting Service account.
       For this, we created a fake SPN for the Claims To Windows Token Service account since the delegation tab was missing.
       The delegation has been changed to "Trust this user for delegation to specified services only". Also, selected the sub radio button "Use any
authentication protocol". Selected the Oracle Kerberos service as the service to which this account can present delegated credentials.
20. Restarted the SharePoint server.
21. Tested the data connection with the Kerberos settings again.
       Got the error
“ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed”.
Can anyone tell me what is wrong with this setup?

Problem4: ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed
Solution: Make sure that SQLNET.KERBEROS5_CC_NAME is set in sqlnet.ora and okinit has been run before attempting to connect to the database.

Using patch plans for 12.1.0.2 target oracle home fails with 'PREREQ_MESG: Unable to get the version of OPatch'

We are attempting to use patch plan to apply PSU and one-offs to a new 12.1.0.2 database oracle home. Our EM version is 12.1.0.4.
We are experiencing the same issue described in ''Bug 20271609 : Unable to get the version of OPatch". This bug is closed as 'duplicate bug to filer' but we do not appear to have visibility into what patch/bug fixes the issue.
Description from the above mentioned bug is our same issue. We do not have this issue when we use patch plans against an 11.2.x oracle_home target. It is unique to 12.1.0.2 oracle_home target.
Description from the bug:
The Plan failed in step "Run Prerequisite Checks" with the following errors:
PREREQ_NAME: Minimum Version of OPatch
PREREQ_DESC: Check if the required version of OPatch is present on the target
PREREQ_TYPE: PATCH_TOOL_CHECK
PREREQ_STATUS: FAILED
PREREQ_MESG: Unable to get the version of OPatch at
/u01/app/oracle/product/12.1.0/dbhome_2/Opatch
We have opened an SR to see if we can get more info on what was already identified as a bug. Has anyone else experienced this issue? If so, can you share any patches or workarounds (other than manually applying patches) that you found useful?
Thanks.

You'll probably get the same info from Support, but the workaround is to use the Patch Database (however that doesn't work if there's no DB target associated to that home). If you were trying to do patchign out of place (clone home, patch, then move db's), EM can do this for you. If you're just installing a new DB Home and trying to patch, then i don' think there's another workaround. The base bug is marked fixed though, so a backport for the 12.1.0.6 plugin should be available very soon. I would ask the support analyst to request the backport for your plugin/patch level...

Oracle UCM fails to check in text/xml files

We have an Oracle UCM server that is failing to check in xml files over a certain size - I haven't narrowed down the size limit yet, but a <100kb file will work 100% of the time, while 300+ Kb xml files fail almost all the time, though there has been some success. Image files and zip file succeed on new check ins 100% of the time as well. We have tried with the SOAP API and the UCM new check in form - in both cases we get an empty repsonse from the server. In firefox we get the "The connection was reset" page. I'm at a loss as to explain why, but I have almost no experience with Oracle UCM. This particular server has been running for over a year happily accepting xml files of all sizes, then one day just stopped - as far as I am aware, nobody changed any
settings/upgraded anything/changed network topology.
When I look in the server output, I don't really see any indication of failure or find any mention of the file name or content title like I do when a file successfully checks in.
I have already asked the DBA to drop and rebuild the database index, started the Collection rebuild cycle (it finished successfully) and turned on the webless file store option on the defaultfilestore provider.
UCS Version : 10.1.3.3.3 (080807) (Build:7.2.2.188)
Database : Microsoft SQL Server 09.00.4035 currently using DATABASE.METADATA though I think it was at one point using Full text search, but the database was not.
Java Version:1.6.0
Please ask if there is any other information you need, but I do not have physical access to the machine, and I may not be able to reveal certain info due to privacy/security concerns.

Hello,
I think you should open an SR with support to help out. Be that as it may, here's some observations/suggestions...
* You are running a 4-year old content server. There have been numerous fixes since then. Your system may have grown to a point where it's hit one of the older issues.
* Is it possible the XML encoding may have changed? i.e. that whatever generates the XML files is now generating them slightly differently and therefore the encoding is different so check-in doesn't follow the same rules? I'd look at the first line of older files versus the new files which fail. If there's a difference, refer to KM note 978689.1 in our knowledge base.
* You say there doesn't appear to be anything in the logs, so let's increase them:
- Login to UCM as Administrator. Go to Administration->System Audit Information. Switch on the Full Verbose Tracing checkbox. In the Active Sections field, put in:
systemdatabase - this will show you what queries and inserts are made to the database and should show whether there's a problem at that level.
requestaudit - this shows you the requests as they come in, as well as a roundup of all requests every 2 minutes. If you see large amounts of time being taken on requests, your server could be creaking because of resources.
publish - tells you about publishing related issues, most XML file check-ins are related to this.
- Try to check in a file which should fail.
- Switch off verbose logging (see above) to reduce overhead.
If the OS is Windows then the <install>/config.cfg file needs to have UseRedirectedOutput=true in order to generate a log file for this tracing. On Windows the file is the <install>/bin/IdcServerNT.log file. (if the above config is set)
On *nix it is in the <install>/etc/log file (notice that there is no file extension on the file)
If none of the logs helps you, an SR is probably in order.
Regards,
Frank.

Multiple Oracle Homes - Oracle Listener failes to start after installation

Just in case the listener fails to start after an oracle installation, please check the oracle ports in the listener.ora and tnsnames.ora, both of which are present in the following directory:
...\oracle\<SID>\<Ver>\NETWORK\ADMIN
All installations should have separate listener ports eg. If the first installation has port 1527, the next one should be 1528 and so on..
If they do not, manually change the ports and start the listeners.
Also check SAP Note 98252. Although I didn't find it necessary (I think it applies only if you have a single listener for all oracle homes), it did give me an idea that there some config problem in the .ora files.
Also see [this thread|Oracle Listener error in Import ABAP phase?; for related details

hi
thanks for the help ,
I have been using the SQL Server , i am totally blank about Oracle
i am totally confused with this user, and hoststring
i logged in to the enterprise manager using System and manager password
But i cannot connect to any database using SQL Server
i am not remembering any user name or password i have given during installation.
the only thing i remember is
Global databasename = (globedb) i have given
For SID = globedb the same name i have given
for sys ,i have given sysdb as password
and for system i have given systemdb as password
with this can i do anything
when expand the schemas ,i can see the XDB,SCOTT and SYS . how can i login to this .
if i want to login to the scott
what would be the username,password,and hoststring. since i haven't set any password and username ,there would be some default username ,password, and hoststring.
if any one can help me please help me
thanks regards

Oracle Report Failing After Database Version Upgrade

Hi,
I have function code created in RDF file of oracle reports 10g as below-
create or replace function clobblobtest (TMP_MID varchar2) return varchar is
missed_text varchar2(1000) := '';
v_time_stamp date;
v_end_time date;
cursor c1(c_time_stamp in date,
          c_mid in varchar2) is
       select mn.TEXT from msgnotes mn
where mn.mid=c_mid
      and mn.create_date >= c_time_stamp;
cursor c2(c_time_stamp in date,
          c_mid in varchar2,
          c_end_time in date) is
       select mn.TEXT from msgnotes mn
where mn.mid=c_mid
      and mn.create_date >= c_time_stamp
      and mn.create_date <= c_end_time;
begin
IF ('1' = 'INWARD RETURN') then
    select bbi into missed_text from mtf1000 where mid=TMP_mid;
    ELSIF '1'='QPH Missed' then
Select max(nj.update_date) into v_time_stamp
from newjournal nj
where nj.mid=TMP_mid and nj.status = 'CTOVRQ';
for i in c1(v_time_stamp,TMP_mid) loop
missed_text:=missed_text||' '||i.text;
END Loop;
ELSIF ('Rejected'='Rejected' OR 'REJECTED'='REJECTED') then
IF ('TERMINATED' in ('TERMINATED')) THEN
Select min(nj.update_date),max(nj.ENDDATE) into v_time_stamp,v_end_time
from newjournal nj
where nj.mid=TMP_mid and nj.actionid2='16' and nj.actionid1 is null;
for i in c2(v_time_stamp,TMP_mid,v_end_time) loop

END Loop;
ELSE
Select max(nj.update_date) into v_time_stamp

missed_text:=missed_text||' '||i.text;
END Loop;
END IF;
ELSE missed_text := null;
END IF;
return(missed_text);
End;
Note:- Text column from table msgnotes is of datatype CLOB.
I have executed report having this function before oracle upgrade and it works fine.
But when i am trying to execute report after oracle version upgrade from 11.2.0.3.0 to 11.2.0.4.0 with same data report fails with runtime error Rep-1401: '' Fatal PL/SQL Error.
With New version we tried to typecast Text column from clob to varchar and executed report then it works... but report runs on old version without any explicit typecasting.
Please note when i run and call this funtion from sql developer with upgraded database version it works fine.
Please advise.

This error can possibly depend on the fact that the PL/SQL engines are in different versions. When using SQL Developer you use the PL/SQL engine in the database. When using Oracle Reports you use the PL/SQL engine in the Oracle Reports Server (Web Logic Server even maybe). These versions - in the Forms and Reports realm - are different (read: a lower version) than the PL/SQL engine in the database.
If I check what version I have in Oracle Forms, as an example, I get 11.1.0.7.0 (Help in the Oracle Forms Builder menu) but in the database I have (select * from product_component_version;) 11.2.0.3.0.
That COULD be your issue...how to fix it I am not sure...

XML parsing failed - Works in Oracle Developer fails in SQLplus

Hello,
I am trying to figure out what could possibly be causing my XML parsing to fail from sqlplus. Basically the exact same sql script fails with the following error when run from sqlplus but works fine in Oracle Developer.
Now I have read a number of posts talking about the NLS_Lang and characterset issues. But these are all running on the same machine.

System Information:
Oracle XE on windows XP. Everything is running on the same machine, sqlplus, Oracle Developer and the database are all on the same machine.
If you need any more information please let me know, and how to get the information you want. I am not a DBA so I don't know how to do a lot of things with oracle, but I do know that this SQL should be working.

NLS...read up on them
on the same machine, yeah and...?
(1) c:\> set NLS_LANG=.....
(2) c:\> sqlplus
-- sqlplus has the active nls settings set from (1)
3) you now connect to a database
- this database has an NLS character settings that where set during using a spfile or pfile
- or, as in the case of the characterset, was defined and set once, during the creation of the database.
So...
Your NLS settings in (1) can be different from the ones that are active in the database (3).
Your NLS settings are / can be set on windows on 5 levels
In the registry under /software/oracle:
1) on HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
2) on HKEY LOCAL USER
In the envionment settings from windows under control panel, system, advanced, environment settings:
3) on system level
4) on user level
5) On command level via explicitly setting the parameter before starting the actual program
So in all, you can have the case where the NLS settings from sqlplus or Oracle Developer or the database are all different.
