Permission required to access oracle client service names

Hello,
I actually have a problem with accessing oracle client service names in Crystal.
The problem is:
I installed crystal reports 2008 and installed oracle client on a machine (I used an account that is a local administrator of the machine during installation) but the problem is that the users who are going to access crystal are standard users and they couldnu2019t access the services in oracle client and when they try to refresh the report they get the following error
"Failed to load database information. Details: the DB connector 'crdb_oracle.dll' couldn't be loaded. the correct version of the database client for this database type might not be installed"
I gave the users permission on the two folders (C:\program files \Common files \) and RegEdit : (C:\Windows \ System 32\) but the problem wasnu2019t solved so I made them local administrators and the problem was solved but I donu2019t want to make the users local administrators on the machine , some people told me that I have to install oracle client with the user who will be using crystal but the problem is that two users will be working on the machine not just one and they have two different accounts and when I tried to give the users full control permission on oracle folder , the problem wasnu2019t solved, So I wanted to know if any one faced a similar problem and how to solve it without making the users local administrators.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
It appears you have everything installed and configured for Cr to work so it looks like it's a DB issue.
What do you see in the logs if you enable logging on the Server? Are your requests even getting to the Server from CR under the user account?
Test it using the admin and then the user account.
You could try checking on the option to use Trusted Authentication in the database log on windows of CR. This should pass the users PC log on credentials to the Server.
Thank you
Don

Windows 8 operating system + applications requiring 32-bit oracle client

Hi,
We are trying to install oracle 32 bit client on Windows 8 opertaing system
11.2.0.1
Have done so successfully on Windows 7 but Windows 8 says doesn't meet minimum environemnet requirements.
We have a 32-bit appliactuion which requires oracle client
When we tried the 64-bit oracle client on the Windows 7 onne, application didn't work so henec the 32-bit oracle client which allowed the application ro work O.K.
Problem is we need to have this application working in Windows 8 environment.
Any thoughts if can use oracle 32 bit client on Windows and if so where I can download from?
Thanks

Regardless of whether test or production machine, why would you choose an unsupported combination ? Which exact version of Win 8 ?
Certification tab is at My Oracle Support - https://support.oracle.com - access to which requires a paid support contract with Oracle.

Accessing Oracle LDAP Service from Microsoft SQL*Server2000

Hi
We are trying to link onto the Oracle LDAP service from a stored procedure in an SQL*Server 2000 database. But we are not able to succeed.
Anyone who can share some experience with us on the topic? Is it at all possible to do what we are trying to do? Must we install some driver software (or the like) at the SQL*Server side? Or do we have to write a Java application instead that uses JNDI to access OID and then connect to the SQL*Server?
Any help is appreciated.

Jan Holdam

There are samples and more information on calling Web services from the database here:

FDM 11.1.2.3 issue (32 or 64 Bit Oracle Client) ?

Hi All,
               I have installed FDM 11.1.2.3 under Windows 2008 server using Oracle 11g Database. Its configuration was sucessfull, but I'm not getting create an app and having "connection database" errors. In a previous version (11.1.2.2.) was stated that FDM should use 32-bit Oracle client installed. But at 11.1.2.3 documentation I did not found anything related to this and installed it using 64-Bit Oracle Client.
              Does someone could tell me if FDM 11.1.2.3 requires 32-bit Oracle client installed ?
Thanks

It does still use the 32 bit Oracle CLient.
You would need to test the connection with a 32 bit UDL file (.udl32) and use the following command to test:
1. Create a file to test the 32-bit OLE DB Provider. (Create a new empty file in a easily accessible location with the extension UDL32) a. Launch a command prompt. b. Start notepad and pass in the name of the new file. c:\>start notepad c:\testconn.udl32 c. When prompted to create the file, choose yes then close notepad. 2. Test the 32-bit OLE DB data source using the new file and the following command. a. Launch a command prompt. b. Execute the following command.    c:\WINDOWS\SysWOW64\Rundll32.exe "c:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\System\Ole DB\oledb32.dll",OpenDSLFile c:\testconn.udl32 - Note, make sure the command line is something appropriate for your Windows Installation. d. Click the Provider Tab, select OLEDB provider you're trying to test (Ie, Oracle Provider for OLE DB) - Note, ODBC connections can also be tested by selecting Microsoft OLEDB Provider for ODBC Drivers. e. Click the Connection Tab. Enter a valid connect string for Data Source. Enter a valid user and password for
he database. f. Click the Test Connection button.

Oracle Client install sequence before EPM install..

Hi All,
I'm trying to install EPM 11.1.2.1 on a Windows 2008 R2 Standard Server(64 bit). IIS 7. This a development/proof of concept set up.
I want to install Foundation, EPM Architect, Essbase, Planning, Reporting and Analysis, HFM, Strategic Finance and FDM on the same machine.
I want to install an Oracle 11g database 64 bit database to use as repository.
According to the Installation documents, EPM Architect and HFM support 64 bit Oracle client, but Strategic Finance and FDM require 32 bit Oracle client.
I installated them in the following order.
Oracle 11g 32 bit client
Oracle 11g 64 bit database
Oracle 11g 64 bit client
I faced issues in configuring EPM Architect where it didn't recognize ODAC installation.
1. What should be the order in which I should install the Oracle 11g 64 bit database, Oracle 11g 32 bit client and Oracle 11g 64 bit client ?
2. To install ODAC (ODP for ASP.NET ), I had to use the custom option for the clients, but the custom option shows listener and MTS services.
Should I install them for each client ?
Thanks.

If you are installing this one machine then I would take the route of Oracle DB, 32bit client, 64bit client
Cheers

Any docs on HOW TO INSTALL ORACLE CLIENT ON OBIEE SERVER?`

Thanks...

Generally speaking the way to installing Oracle Client does not depend directly on the product that is going to use it
If some product requires some specific Oracle Client versions or Oracle Client configurations you should find this information in the product documentation (i.e OBIEE Server) and not in Oracle Client documentation.
You can find Oracle Client documentation (named "Database Client") in the Installation sections of tahiti.oracle.com. For example for 11.2: http://www.oracle.com/pls/db112/portal.portal_db?selected=11&frame=#microsoft_windows_installation_guides.

Dear Anwar,
I'm using XPSP2 10gR2Enterprise
SID=ORCL
host=andor (my PC's name)
Pls help me. I'm struggling with HS also so I've followed your lines, meaning:
I can create the database link, but cannot retrieve data from source. (see 7.)
1a. I have created the Excel file c:\EXCL.xls
NEV DATUM BOOL NUMBER
Stefán Balázs 09.nov TRUE 0
Sebestyén Dénes 10.nov TRUE -11
Tóth Andor 11.nov FALSE 12.3

ORA-28545: .Unable to retrieve text of NETWORK/NCR message 65535... ORA-02063: previous 2 lines from EXCL
Please help me to get over this.

Oracle Client version : which one to install?

I apologize if this is not the correct forum, but wasn't sure whether to put it in th general forum or the installation forum.
I have the following environments
Production
Windows 2003 R2 Oracle 9.2.0.8
Windows 2003 R2 Oracle 11.1.0.7
RHEL 5 Oracle 11.2.0.2.0.
Similar evironments exist in QA and dev.
We have app developers that require just the oracle client to be installed.
Should I be installing the 9.x client on every laptop or take the most recent as I presume there is backward compatibility.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

You should be using the 11gR2 client

NET8I 서비스 이름(SERVICE NAME) 사용 방법

제품 : SQL*NET
작성날짜 : 2000-05-31
Oracle 8i 미만 버젼에서는 Oracle SID(System Identification) 정보만을 이용
하여 클라이언트에서 서버로의 접속이 이루어졌으나, Oracle 8i부터 새로이 소개된
Service Name을 이용하여 데이타베이스에 접속할 수 있게 되었다.
그러나 만일 Service Name을 적절히 기술되지 않으면 다음과 같은 오류를 만나게
되므로 그 사용 방법을 다루고자 한다.
"ORA-12514 :TNS - Could not resolve service name"
"ORA-12154 :TNS - Could not resolve service name"
Net8 Easy Configuration 또는 Net8 Assistant 도구에서 Net Service Name을
입력하여야 하며, SERVICE_NAME은 TNSNAMES.ORA 화일에 CONNECT_DATA 절에
기술하여 하며, 과거 버젼의 (SID=<SIDname>) 절을 대치시킨 것이다.
SERVICE_NAME을 TNSNAMES.ORA에 지정하는 방법은 다음 세 가지로 가능하다.
(1) 만일 LISTENER.ORA에 GLOBAL_DBNAME 파라메터가 지정되어 있다면, 그 이름
을 이용한다.
(참고로 GLOBAL_DBNAME은 init 파라메터 <DB_NAME>.<DB_DOMAIN>의 형태로
구성된다.)
listener.ora:
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
(GLOBAL_DBNAME = RC815.o200.kr.oracle.com)
(ORACLE_HOME = /mnt3/rctest8i/app/oracle/product/8.1.5)
(SID_NAME = RC815)
tnsnames.ora:
ora815 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST = o200)(PORT = 1588))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = RC815.o200.kr.oracle.com)
(2) 초기화 파라메터 <SERVICE_NAMES>.<DB_DOMAIN>의 형태를 이용한다.
(참고로 SERVICE_NAMES의 디폴트 값은 <DB_NAME>.<DB_DOMAIN>이므로
SERVICE_NAMES이 명시적으로 지정되어 있지 않으면 <DB_NAME>.<DB_DOMAIN>
형태의 지정이 가능하다.)
init<SID>.ora:
SERVICE_NAMES = MYDB
DB_DOMAIN = o200.kr.oracle.com
tnsnames.ora:
ora815 =
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = MYDB.o200.kr.oracle.com)
만일 둘 이상의 service name의 지정이 필요한 경우에는 다음과 같이
init<SID>.ora화일에 SERVICE_NAMES에 이름을 연속하여 지정한 후 사용할 수 있다.
init<SID>.ora:
SERVICE_NAMES = MYDB1, MYDB2
DB_DOMAIN = o200.kr.oracle.com
tnsnames.ora:
ora815_A =
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = MYDB1.o200.kr.oracle.com)
ora815_B =
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = MYDB2.o200.kr.oracle.com)
(3) 마지막으로 init<SID>.ora에 DB_DOMAIN 파라메터가 없고, listener.ora에도
GLOBAL_DBNAME이 없는 경우에는 간단히 SID 값을 사용한다.
tnsnames.ora:
ora815 =
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = ORA815)
)

또한 원격 oracle에 접속하는 경우라면 로컬에서는 LISTENER.ora에서 특별히 설정 해 줄건 없는 건가요?

Wrt54gs no service name available for pppoe

my isp requires that i put a service name. i had a dlink router that worked fine with my connection, but now i cannot find the service name field in the linksys router for my connection to work.
can anyone help me solve the problem. maybe a firmware is available that adds the service name field.
i have the wrt54gs v5.1 firmware version 1.50.9

I guess the Service Name provided by the ISP has to be type in the Host Name box under Setup Page.

Which oracle client works with both Oracle 11.2.0.2 and BizTalk 2006 R2

Hi there
My Oracle11.2.0.2 is installed on linux server. My Biztalk2006R2 is installed on Windows Server 2003 R2 x64. I have already installed BizTalk Adapter for Oracle on the Biztalk server and now require to install Oracle Client to make Biztalk able to retrieve data from Oracle11.2.0.2 using the oracle client.
From the following link,
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa559822%28v=BTS.20%29.aspx
I came to know that the only oracle clients compatible with Biztalk adapter for oracle are as below:
1) Oracle client 8i
2) oracle client 9i
3) oracle client 10i
Now I need to install an oracle client on biztalk server in order to make biztalk talk to oracle and retrieve data from it.
Question1: which of the above clients should i install on biztalk server that is compatible with both Oracle11.2.0.2 as well as Biztalk server 2006 R2?
Question2: How to install and configure this client to make it work correctly?
Please help.. thanks.

The Biztalk Adapter interface with Oracle software has information, requirements per referenced document that does not make sense.
E.g. "10i" does not exist and the requirement "Oracle ODBC driver 9.2.0.5.4" means that only 9.2 Client can be used. (Mixing parts from one Database Client product version with another version is not allowed/supported/certified.)
Btw, does that machine happen to have Itanium hardware? (probably no, since you stated x64)
For Oracle's OS requirements, 2003 was certified with/from 9.2.0.3 (and likely also terminal patch set version 9.2.0.8). Not sure about Server 2003 R2, 32 or 64-bit. I'm pretty sure 10.2 was certified on 2003 R2, but the note likely refers to 10.1 versions (before it was known it would be labeled 10g, g for grid replacing the i ).
This FAQ may have some more information: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/windows/faq-100614.html
For Oracle client - server interoperability and certification, there's a support matrix on MOS. See doc id 207303.1.
It seems 9.2 is supported on the wire to operate with 11.2 server, but Client with at least patch set 9.2.0.4 is required.
So, I guess best bet is to find updated requirements.
If you manage to get hold of 9.2.0.5, after verifying that 2003 R2 is ok, then it looks like the puzzle could be put together for a complete picture.
For ease of install, take a look at the Instant Client. (However, there's no 9.2 IC, that type of client install came later)
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/instant-client/index-097480.html
Edit;
some corrections, specially about 9.2 version

Generating wsdl:fault with Oracle Web Services

What conditions are required to have Oracle Web Services throw a defined wsdl:fault over a soap:fault? Is there documentation on how to map these correctly from your java code? I can't seem to find anything in the documenation that discusses this and when using the WebServiceAssembler to generate WSDLs including an exception in a method signature does nothing to generate a wsdl section in the generated portType.
Any pointers are appreciated.

Hi,
If a method throws Exceptions that are not instances / subclasses of java.rmi.RemoteException, then it's not a SOAP Fault, but a wsdl:fault. This is the manner in which JAX-RPC handles the Exceptions.

Does JDBC application need oracle client

We are going to wirte java application that going to use jdbc connection to Oracle database. The question is does this application require to have oracle client software to connect to Oracle?
Thanks.

No, I don't thinks so that you don't need a client for using JDBC

TNS Service Name

While I am configuring DNS for Oracle 10g at that time i come to the TNS Service Name
but as i dnt know what TNS Service means ?? I wanted to know what does it stand for ?
And also I am seeing three options to select named as below
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA
ORACLR_CONNECTION_DATA
XE
I also wanted to know the purpose of each above attributes. So please Guide me..!! and know me what it means ?? Thanks in advance

You can refer this http://www.ispirer.com/wiki/sqlways/users-guide/setting-up-database-connection/oracle/tns-service-name
TNS service name is used to connect to a database remotely.
PROD =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <HOSTNAME>)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = prim)
In the above example, PROD is the NET ORACLE SERVICE NAME(alias name). This is used while connecting to the database from the remote server.
Host is the hostname where the database resides.
SERVICE_NAME is the db_unique_name of the database that you are connecting.
So when connecting to the database remotely, you use
sqlplus username/<password>@<connection string>
sqlplus username/<password>@<prod>
