PROBLEM IN CONNECTING to ORACLE 8i from DEVELOPER 6

I have installed oracle8i Enterprise edition version 8.1.5, on an NT Machine (local database). I have access to database Using the SQL*PLus came with Database software, but unable to connect to database from developer rel 6.0. or SQL*Plus 8.0.5 . If any of you know the solution PLEASE LET ME KNOW.
Thanks in advance

I am trying to connect to the latest version of Developer 6.0 to Oracle8i database. I can't get a connection. Have been trying since 1/5/00. I have called and emailed Gina at Customer support. I get a ORA-12203 error after trying all solutions. The support comes by email about every 3rd day. It's very poor and the solutions haven't gotten me running yet.
I am able to connect SQL*Plus 8.0 and all Oracle8i tools by entering no connect string, but nothing else.
Will watch this area hoping for some help. I don't think Oracle is going to get me going.

Problem in connecting Non Oracle Database from Oracle

Hi:
I want to access "MS ACCESS" from Oracle 10g (10.2.0.1) using Windows XP.
I tried my best, applied all proper instructions I found from books and from Internet, but getting an error.
Here is what I did:
My Oracle database is called "ORCL" and "MS ACCESS" is called "access_1".
There is only one table "Employees" in "access_1".
1. Accessed ODBC from Start | Control Panel | Administrative Tools.
2. Clicked on Users DSN | "access_1" | Add.
3. Clicked on "Drive do Microsoft Access (*.MDB)" .
4. Hit Finish.
5. Entered at DATA SOURCE NAME "ODBC1" and at DESCRIPTION "Connect Oracle to MS Access". Also I clicked on SELECT and chose the "Access_1.mdb" which is located at "C:\Documents and Settings\Muhammad\My Documents" folder. Clicked OK. and clicked on OK again.
6. Now I went to Oracle side and configured listener as follows: (Only portion is shown here)
# listener.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
(SID_LIST =

LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = RIYAZDESKTOP)(PORT = 1521))
7. Configuring the hs file located at C:\oracle\Product\Orcl\hs|admin as follows:
# HS init parameters
# HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = <odbc data_source_name>
# HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = <trace_level>
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = odbc1
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF
# Environment variables required for the non-Oracle system
#set <envvar>=<value>
8. The TNSNAMES.ORA File is located at C:\:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\ and has the following text (only the related text is shown here):
# tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\oracle\product\orcl\network\admin\tnsnames.ora

access_db.world =
(DESCRIPTION =
(Address = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST = RIYAZDESKTOP) (PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = hsodbc))
(HS=OK)
9. The database link is created as follows:
SQL> create database link access_db USING 'access_db.world';
Database link created.
SQL>
10. Now the test and selection:
SQL> select * from employees@access_db;
select * from employees@access_db

Not able to connect to Oracle EBS from host Windows 7

Hi, I have installed oracle EBS version 12.1.1 (32 bit) on OEL ver 6.3 (32 bit). I have installed Linux on Oracle VM virtualbox ver 4.1.16.
I am having host OS as Windows 7 home on my laptop.

How to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition

I have installed visual basic 2010 express edition on windows xp. But visual basic 2010 express edition supports Microsoft sql server database file,Microsoft sql server compact 3.5, Microsoft access database file. I want to connect to oracle database from visual basic 2010 express edition. So what drivers are required and how to do connectivity?

Hello,
I wasn't clear on what you were using to make the connection. I had a look in Visual Studio 2010 (don't have express to test sorry).
I think you mean the Data Sources available under the menu Data-> Datasources. this seems to match the description you give when I
look at the list of datasource options.
In here you can make ODBC connections via the Microsoft .net Data Provider .
If you select ODBC as a datasource you can see listed the DSN's you created - for example I see 2 which use the Oracle ODBC driver.
This assumes you installed an Oracle Client + the oracle version of the ODBC driver (comes with the oracle client).
Once you created a server connection then you should see it in the server explorer.
You can also download the Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio which is an add on for VS.
** I suspect this is only for VS 2010 and I didn't see that Express was supported.

Let me know if that helps.

1. Is the connection url correct?
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@PLANET:1521:ORCL" is fine.
2. Is the TNS listener started?
c:\oracle\product\ora10\bin> lsnrctl status
3. Is a firewall between client and database server?
Connection url with firewall would be different.

How to connect to Oracle database from webdynprojava application

Hi
How to connect to Oracle database from webdynprojava application. where can we provide the code to connect to database.?
Thank You.

Hi,
You need to create Java Bean model. The bean is a typical java bean with default constructor, getter and setter. You can have additional methods for query etc. The attributes in the class will be your model node and attributes.
However you need to configure the connection and create JNDI using visual administrator before writing the code.
You can also consider writing Session EJB with oracle and using them in WD.

Connect to Oracle 8i from Forms 6

I have installed Personal Oracle 8i and developper 6 in a NT. I got the error when tried to connect to the Oracle 8i from Form Builder. "could not resolve service name".
I did enter the database name.
Any ideas?

This is a tnsnames problem...check the entry in tnsnames.ora and make sure
its
point to the right DB...there will be a tnsnames.ora under Network and also
a
tnsnames in the developer directory ..FORMS will use the tnsnames under
developer..
Supply the connect string with and without the domain to see if
that works
You can find the domain name in sqlnet.ora file.

Problem to connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 at Vista sp2

Introduction
Hi guys, good day... NEED RESCUE!! SOS!! Hmm.. i have trouble been 1 weeks trying connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 on window vista sp2. Actaully im very new at Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 but i got a project is going to build up system database and i figure out Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 can use free so i just chows these appication to be my project. I been search around internet and there is several things i was found about the connection but i has try and tried still it wont work out.
Things i found and learned
Oracle
1. I have download Oracle 10g XE and installed in my windows vista sp2.
2. I notice the Oracle Developer Tools is needed for VB2010 (To add reference 'Oracle.DataAccess'). So i was downloaded ODT11beta and installed
3. I also edit TNSNAMES to following below:
OraDb =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
4. My sqlnet like following below:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
5.I have try tnsping OraDB and its works.
6. I monitoring task manager and OracleServicesXE is running.
7. ora_dba is added in Group.
Problem in SQLPLUS
When i try connect SQLPLUS in cmd i get ERROR: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
i . In cmd i type sqlplus and enter then i been ask for username and password.
ii. After i insert my username and password and enter then i get the error of ORA-12560.
Visual Basic 2010
1. First i created my project, drawing label and button for test connection.
2. Then, i add reference Oracle.DataAccess into my project.
3. I type following script into my vb form:
Imports System.Data
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Types
Public Class Logon
Private Sub cmdLogon_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdLogon.Click
Dim oradb As String = "Data Source = OraDb; User Id = system; Password = shin;"
Dim conn As New OracleConnection(oradb)
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New OracleCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandText = "select SName from Staff where SName = shin"
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
Dim dr As OracleDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
dr.Read()
lblOra.Text = dr.Item("SName")
conn.Dispose()
End Sub
End Class
Problem in VB2010
When i run my project and press the button i get error message ORA-12514: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at conn.Open()
Extra Question*
1. Im notice in my netbook xp home sp2, before i install ODT11beta my sqlplus look fine thought cmd but after i installed ODT11beta its same problem with my Vista sp2 now. Get error ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error :( I tried uninstall ODT11beta again and restart its work fine again. Which i really dun understand. Izzit the version ODT11 is not suitable for 10g xe? And i dunno this problem is related with my connection between oracle 10g xe and vb2010 or not. So confuse@@
2. I wish to know more about connect between Oracle and VB, is there still a things i miss?(I mean steps or configuration that should i done)
3. Or i just lower my VB version could make more easy? If yes, what version VB should i use that could work out with oracle 10g xe?
4. Sorry for too bad my english but i really wish somebody could help me. Please try to understand my written or you could ask me mean if dont understand. Im stuck!! Stuck feel not really that good.....

Izzit ok? I notice there is no listed OraDb. but tnsping OraDb seem fine.
Actually there is somethings as a newbie i wondering long time alreadly ><
1. The origin of tnsname.ora is no OraDb or ORCL but i just simple add it by open tnsname.ora with notepad. Im just not sure it is function or not.
Also please check at my TNSNAME.ORA:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =

(SERVICE_NAME = XE)

Connecting Personal Oracle 8i and Developer

Hi
The following works for me.
The critical files required are tnsnames.ora, sqlnet.ora and listener.ora.
Put sqlnet.ora, listener.ora and tnsnames.ora in the ORACLE\ORA81\NETWORK\ADMIN directory.
Put sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora in the
ORAWIN95\NETWORK directory.
The following are how the files should look.
This is assuming the PO 8I installation defaults were taken (SID is ORCL, and GLOBAL DATABASE NAME is ORACLE).
Listener.ora file:
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
(PROTOCOL_STACK =

(SESSION = NS)
(DESCRIPTION =

Create a shortcut for listener (C:\Oracle\Ora81\BIN\LSNRCTL.EXE).
Start developer.
Start PO 8i.
Start Listener and enter "start".
You should now be able to connect to Oracle
from Developer using scott/tiger and using oracle as the database name.
Good Luck.

Hi.
I too had problems getting Developer 6 to connect to Personal Oracle 8 on Windows 98.
Thanks to the information Jim posted I am now able to connect.
I followed Jim's instructions with three exceptions.
First exception - On my machine the sqlnet.ora and tnsnames.ora file belong in the ORAWIN95\NET80 directory rather than ORAWIN95\NETWORK directory.
Second exception -- Personal Oracle 8 was installed in C:\ORA81 rather than C:\ORACLE\ORA81 so I adjusted pathnames as needed.
Third exception -- I made backup copies of the sqlnet.ora, tnsnames.ora, and listener.ora files that the installation had created before I started editing them.
My first attempt to start the listener failed with TNS-01152 message which indicated that the addresses provided to listener were not valid.
I replaced the listener.ora file in my C:\ORA81\NETWORK\ADMIN directory with the one that the installation had created then attempted to start the listener again.
The listener started successfully. I attempted to connect from Developer6 using scott/tiger@oracle. Developer6 connected!
Here is what my listern.ora file looks like:
# LISTENER.ORA Network Configuration File: # C:\ora81\network\admin\listener.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
LISTENER =

I cannot connect to Oracle Essbase from SmartView

Hello.
When we open SmartView from Excel 2010 and connect to the Shared Connections with "admin" account, we cannot see "Oracle Essbase" option to select. This occurs in the developer environment. In production environment, we can select "Oracle Essbase" from the dropdown.
SIM env:
PROD env:
The installation was identically apparently.
How can we solve this problem?
Thanks a lot.

Hi ,
Could you check if Provider services is enabled in workspace settings.
Scroll down to last,
And try re-logging into workspace and then open an excel and see if you are able to see Essbase connection.
Make sure the user has admin access or make the changes through admin id.
Thanks

How to connect to oracle ebs from an external software

Hi!
I want to develop an integration for oracle EBS. Therefor I'm looking for ways how to connect to the EBS and for a repository of functions which can be called from an external program. I'm not quite sure if this is the right place to ask but I could not find anything yet so I'm trying here.
Are there any standard connectors for the EBS provided by Oracle?
Thanks,

Oracle Applications Architecture is a framework for multi-tiered, distributed computing that supports Oracle Applications products. In this model, various servers are distributed among multiple levels/tiers as follows:
- The Desktop Tier --> Web browser with Jinitiator or Sun JRE
- The Application Tier --> Web, Forms, Reports, Admin, and Concurrent servers
- The Database Tier --> Oracle Enterprise Edition Database
The Application tier is the layer which is responsible for:
- Hosting the various servers that process the business logic
- Managing communication between the desktop tier and the database tier
So, in order to connect to the database, you can either access the application tier, or connect directly to the database. I do not think it is possible to communicate with the application services from some other application. Therefore, you would need to connect to the database directly which can be achieved as explained in my previous reply. There is no such API which can be used to open/close a database connection. Oracle E-Business Suite is just a database with number of schemas and objects which are tightly integrated.
More details about Oracle E-Business Architecture can be found in:

Unable to connect to Oracle 9i from Forms 6i

Hi,
I have Oracle 9.2.0 (Personal edition) and Forms 6i installed on a Win2K PC.
I am able to connect to the DB from SQLPLUS. But, I am unable to connect to the DB from Forms 6i. Can anyone suggest where am I going wrong and what is that I need to do to resolve the problem.
Thanks in advance!!!

Normaly forms6i uses Tnsnames.ora file to connect to the database. You need to setup your Tnsnames.ora file correctly by clicking Start---Programs---Directory for Oracle--Oracle net8 easy config, and configure your database connection.

Connect to Oracle 9i from another User

I have Oracle 9i Installed on my machine and works fine.
But I can not connect to to it from another user on the same machine (That has a domain other than my machine)
How I can solve this?

One post please.
Limited Info would lead me to respond that you should try the:

Connect to Oracle database from Perl on Solaris x86

Yes, you absolutely must have some portions of the rdbms installed before you can proceed. If your Solaris x86 machine is only a client, then you can get away with installing just ?/rdbms/mesg and ?/rdbms/lib.
I have Oracle 7.3.4, 8.0.5, 8.0.6, and 8.1.6 for Intel Solaris 2.6. I don't know if they'll run on Solaris 8 or 9 but I'm trying to upgrade at this very moment. As long as you conform to Oracle developer license, then you may download them from my machine.
I believe the reason Oracle dropped their Intel Solaris port is probably because Sun went through a period where they themselves dropped their Intel port. They've picked back up and if enough Oracle on Intel Solaris customers scream, then Oracle might pick it back up again too.
Send me an email if you're interested in the downloads.
