Oci_password_change() ORA-1017 gotcha and Instant Client 11.2.0.3

Since Instant Client 11.2.0.3 is available and many people might be thinking of upgrading, I just blogged about a gotcha with oci_password_change() that occurs unless the client libraries and Oracle DB are upgraded at the same time: http://blogs.oracle.com/opal/entry/php_oci_password_change_ora

Hi!
What you did is correct,
To install odbc you just have to copy the files inside instantclient-odbc-windows.x64-11.2.0.3.0.zip to C:\OracleClient64 as you already did.
When you run odbc_install.exe it popup a cmd prompt for very short period of time. It´s fine.
What it does is to create the values you saw in the registry, an thats why if you run it a second time it said that already exist. With that, you have installed odbc, now you can test it following this link:
http://www.sparxsystems.com/enterprise_architect_user_guide/8.0/projects_and_teams/connect_to_oracle_via_odbc.html
Hope it helps

Error Compiling php 5.1.6 with Oracle Instant Client 10.1.0.5 on Fedora 5

Hello
I have Oracle 10.1.0 enterprise database installed on a Windows 2003 server.
I have another machine that has Fedora Core 5 installed on it. I downloaded:
Apache 2.2.3
Php 5.1.6
OracleInstantClient 10.1.0.5 (base and skdk packages) from technet.oracle.com
I created a directory called /usr/lib/instantclient10_1 in which I unzipped
the files for the Oracle Instant Client and the SDK into /usr/lib/instantclient10_1.
So inside /usr/lib/instantclient10_1 I have:
all the unzipped filed from the base for the instant client as well as
a directory called sdk with files inside this subdirectory.
I compiled and installed Apache.
I then tried to configure php using the instantclient with the configure option
--with-oci8=instantclient/usr/lib/instantclient10_1
The first time I did this I got the error: "link from
/usr/lib/instantclient10_1/libclntsh.so to libclntsh.so.10
not found"
Well I had the libclntsh.so.10 but no such link. So I did the following:
ln -s libclntsh.so.10.1 libclntsh.so
I assume this was OK to do but I found it strange that I had to do this.
Question #1 - why should I have to do this?
I then tried to configure php again but got an error that I paste in from
the debug.log. From this debug log you can see the configure options I gave for
php as well as the error. It says "cannot find -lirc". Now I did put into
/etc/ld.so.conf the line /usr/lib/gaim since that is where libirc.so is and ran
ldconfig but it still complained. When I copied libirc.so into /usr/lib it then said there were
lots of errors in that libirc.so. The only item in the configure options depending on lirc is
the with-oci8. Why does with-oci8 depend on lirc?
I also tried the above on Red Hat AS 4.0 and got the same errors.
Question #2 -- what do I do?
Thank You
Gail Lange
Here is the debug.log in the case when libirc.so is just in /usr/lib/gaim:
CONFIGURE: './configure' '--with-apxs2=/usr/local/apache2/bin/apxs' '--enable-track-vars'
'--enable-inline-optimization' '--with-gd' '--with-zlib' '--enable-debug'

To be perfectly honest, I'm not sure. Everything I could find on it had to do with IRC or some kind of remote control thing (for controlling audio/media players). Maybe if Ivan stops by he'll know what it means... he knows quite a lot about the inner workings of many of these libraries.
http://us3.php.net/install.unix was the most useful info I could find.
There's also this thread:

Oracle Express 11g and Instant Client

I installed Oracle Express 11g on a Win 7 32 bit machine.
I verified from another machine I could connect to this instance using SqlPlus.
On a different Win 7 32 bit machine I downloaded and installed instant client.
I'm unable to connect to the Oracle Express 11g instance.
Firewall is turned off and User Account Control is set as low as it will go.
I set the PATH as it tells you too.
I did create a TNS_ADMIN pointing to tnsnames file I'm using.
But when I try connecting in SqlPlus using 'system @ dbname' I keep getting the following error message:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
I'm out of options.

CVE-2013-3751 and Instant Client 11.2.0.3

The README for the July 2013 Database GI Patch Set Update mentions Instant Client Installations needing Database PSU 11.2.0.3.7 to address CVE-2013-3751. Further details on the CVE at http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/topics/security/cpujuly2013verbose-1899830.html#DB say “Successful attack of this vulnerability can result in unauthorized Operating System takeover including arbitrary code execution. “ The Patch README references the Oracle Call Interface Programmer’s Guide and in there I found this relevant section http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/appdev.112/e10646/oci01int.htm#autoId37
That document spells out the steps required create Instant Client zip or RPM files. That’s great, but here at my company we haven’t gone through these steps in the past. We simply go to the appropriate page on oracle.com ( Instant Client Downloads ) and download what we need.
I’m assuming the vulnerable file is in the “basic” package. I looked at linux x64 zip today and it has not been updated.

I have 2 questions.
Q1. If I apply only the database server home patch, will my database server still be vulnerable to takeover if the unpatched Oracle Instant Client from oracle.com is left out on my various app servers?
Q2. Is there any effort planned at Oracle to replace the vulnerable versions of Instant Client posted on oracle.com with updated versions no longer vulnerable?

I opened a Service Request with My Oracle Support. Here is the response.
Q1 answer:Yes.
Q2 answer: yes, ETA is next patchset release Q3CY2013

Excellent! Now if there were only a way to use my S95 in raw... I guess I'll have to wait another few months

I can not change my homepage and also allow to update firefox, there are available no options in my browser

I wnat to chcange my homepage but it is not allowed, also I can not update my firefox, there is no options or it is not allowed. Using firefox35, win8.1. 64bit and AVG antivirus

Hello,
Certain Firefox problems can be solved by performing a ''Clean reinstall''. This means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
'''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
#Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from [https://www.mozilla.org mozilla.org] (or choose the download for your operating system and language from [https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/all/ this page]) and save the setup file to your computer.
#After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (or open the Firefox menu [[Image:New Fx Menu]] and click the close button [[Image:Close 29]]).
#Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
#*'''Windows:'''
#**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
#**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
#*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
#*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
#Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
More information about reinstalling Firefox can be found [[Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems#w_5-reinstall-firefox|here]].
<b>WARNING:</b> Do not use a third party uninstaller as part of this process. Doing so could permanently delete your [[Profiles|Firefox profile]] data, including but not limited to, extensions, cache, cookies, bookmarks, personal settings and saved passwords. <u>These cannot be easily recovered unless they have been backed up to an external device!</u> See [[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]. 
Please report back to say if this helped you!
Thank you.

How do I set AUTOMATOR to go to a folder, get a picture, attach it to an email, send it, move on to the next picture, send it and repeat it till no more pictures are available?

I have about 5000 (yes, five thousand!) JPG files I need to post to a blog via email.
So, how would I go about setting AUTOMATOR to create an email, attach only one of the JPG files to this email, send it off and move on to the next; repeating this till all pictures have been emailed off?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks,
MP

Here's a barebones workflow, tested under Snow Leopard.
You'll need to get red menace's Dispense Items Incrementally action: http://automator.us/leopard/downloads/. (I hope it still works under Yosemite!)

Why do I need instant client if I installed 11g1 and it works

sqldeveloper works
em works
sqlplus works
I have a problem with oci8, php 5.2.6, apache 2.2 ...all are installed and working
All the instructions I've found (and there are many) talk about
(1) Zend installs what I already have
(2) installing apache, oci8, php and instant client form scratch
I am NOT going to reduce a working system to scratch.
BTW my oci programs work and they have in the past worked through a client.

What Oracle Software is installed on the machine: client or server?
I concur that there is no need for Instant Client here, indeed it would be a bad idea.
Anything that works with Instant Client should also work with the regular client.
If you encounter any Oracle-specific error messages, feel free to post them and ask for an opinion (even though this forum is reserved for Instant Client, it might be an obvious problem).
Yours,
Laurenz Albe

Instant Client 10.1.0.3 and 8i

I finally got PHP 4.3.11 compiled with Instant Client however I get an error that my database is not supported/
I know that the latest release of the Instant Client allows for 8.1.7.x but will Instant Client ever support 8.1.6.x?
Andrew

Hi,
I've tried nearly the same today (but with 8.1.7) and also had no success.
When does the error occur? What is its description?

Problem using Instant Client 10g with PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian Sarge

Hello,
My current email is [email protected]
I am trying to use PHP on Debian box using Oracle 10gR2 on a RH 4 server. Everything works fine individually, but I cannot get PHP4 to use InstantClient to connect to the Oracle Server. This is what I've done:
Oracle 10gR2 works fine on the RH 4 server. Listener is running and all required OS security is in place and works (TCP_wrappers, etc.).
Client machine runs Debian 3.1 (Sarge). It works fine and SSH connectivity to RH4 server works.
Instant Client 10gR2 installed on Debian client and works fine. Tested SQL*Plus connection to the RH server. I installed Instant Client from the zip file.
I did have to add libclntsh.so to /etc/ld.so.conf and run ldconfig to get Debian to use it, though.
Apache2.0.54-5 on Debian client works fine. Web pages on it can be opened in browsers from other machines.
Installed PHP4.3.10-16 on Debian client using following:
./configure --with-oci8-instant-client=<dir of my choice>
--enable-sigchild
I first checked ./configure help and the option with-oci8-instant-client was there.
Configure went well. Log showed checking for Instant Client files.
Ran make. Saw numerous Instant Client message as words scrolled.
Ran make install. Successful.
Restarted Apache2 with following env variables:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=<my Instant Client directory)
TNS_ADMIN=<same directory where I put my sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora files).
SQLPATH=<same directory>
I know this is correct because Instant Client SQL*Plus can connect.
Browsers on other machines can view simple php scripts run from the Debian box.
BUT, phpinfo does NOT show an OCI8 section.
phpinfo does show the correct extension directory, though.
Somehow, my PHP4 configure and make is not using the --with-oci8-instant-client option.
I checked $PHP4HOME/ext/oci8/config.m4 file and the verbiage IS in there to use the --with-oci8-instant-client option, either with the default location or the extension_dir location.
I tried using the new ZendCore product, even though it is not certified for Debian. It installed okay but I could not get PHP5 to work. I uninstalled it successfully and redid all of the above.
So, any ideas as to what else I can do here? Other than not use Debian (which is probably the wisest thing to do). And I suppose I could install a thick Oracle client, assuming that Debian would take it. But I prefer the Instant Client.
I tried the PHP ./configure syntax I've seen several places on this forum.
./configure --with-oci8=instantclient,<directory>
This syntax may work on Red Hat machines but it throws a syntax error on Debian and aborts the configure.
Thanks for any help.

Thanks, but that did not work. Configure aborts because it cannot find the required OCI8 libraries. The --with-oci8 option is for the Oracle "thick" client. I have only the Instant Client...and am not interested in loading the older client.
I may have my own solution next week, though. I will be loading RH4 on a new server and will then install ZendCore and forget all about using Oracle with Debian.
Update on trying ZendCore on Debian Sarge:
I tried installing it again yesterday. The install seemed go to well, and said it was successful.
It did NOT load PHP5, however. Nor did it load the Instant Client. My previously installed PHP4 and Instant Client remained in my original directories.

Toad with Oracle Instant Client 10.2.0.1.0(not able to locate tnsnames.ora

Hi,
I have both Oracle Client 9.2 and Instant Client 10.2.0.1.0 on my laptop. How to make Toad 8.5.1 locate tnsnames.ora file for instant client.
When I open Toad, and selects "Instant Client 10.2.0.1.0" as installed client, it shows the error message "tnsnames.ora not found!"
Below is the setting:
Instant Client - 10.2.0.1.0
ORACLE_HOME_NAME: C:\Program Files\PHP\
ORACLE_HOME: C:\Program Files\PHP\
ORACLE_SID:
NLS_LANG:
SQLPATH:
LOCAL:
C:\Program Files\PHP\ exists.
C:\Program Files\PHP\ is in PATH.
Client DLL: C:\Program Files\PHP\oci.dll
Client Version: 10.2.0.1.0
Home is valid.
Thanks
Ashutosh

Sal, your comment is pretty irrelevant to the question :^)
user570251, since you are restricted to using Windows, it will not be easy for you to use two different Oracle clients on the same machine.
Basically, you'll have to change TNS_ADMIN whenever you want to change between clients.
Why do you need two client versions on your computer?
Yours,
Laurenz Albe
