Problems with domain name in global_name and database links

I have to create a database link on Oracle 9i **without** a domain. Somehow whenever I create a database link, a domain is added. This domain seems to be the domain that is also added to the database global name (and is the same as my TCP/IP domain on my windows machine).
I tried to create the db link:
create database link "TEST"
connect to remotedb
identified by mypassword
using 'myservicename';
and get:
TEST.DOMAIN.COM instead of TEST.
I also tried to change my database global name:
alter database rename global_name to NEWNAME
and still the database name is NEWNAME.DOMAIN.COM
So there does not seem to be any way to remove the domain.
Note that:
- db_domain is not set in init.ora
- names.default_domain is not set in sqlnet.ora
- global_names = false
So... how to get rid of the domain part?

Hi,
this is not what you want to hear, but once a global_name has a domain associated with it you can't get rid of it, you can change it to a different domain with the alter database command but not to null and it is this domain that will always get appended as default to your db link name so your stuck with it

  • Global_name and database link

    I have Windows XP with 10.2.0.1.0
    I have made my database global_name to be junk.points.com.
    And, I create a database link as:
    create database link preview using 'xxxxx';
    the db_link is preview.point.com.
    However, if I use the following command:
    create database link preview.system using 'xxxxx';
    the db_link is preview.system instead of preview.system.points.com.
    I expect the db_link should be preview.system.points.com. Please help.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    Specify the complete or partial name of the database link. If you specify only the database name, then Oracle Database implicitly appends the database domain of the local database.
    If the value of the GLOBAL_NAMES initialization parameter is TRUE, then the database link must have the same name as the database to which it connects. If the value of GLOBAL_NAMES is FALSE, and if you have changed the global name of the database, then you can specify the global name.
    Defining a CURRENT_USER Database Link: Example
    The following statement defines a current-user database link to the remote database, using the entire service name as the link name:
    CREATE DATABASE LINK remote.us.oracle.com
    CONNECT TO CURRENT_USER
    USING 'remote';
    The user who issues this statement must be a global user registered with the LDAP directory service.
    Please view the below document.

    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B28359_01/server.111/b28310/ds_admin002.htm
    And please check the db links you posted one is having __.point.com
    and the other one is having ___.points.com
    Please make sure you are using the GLOBAL_NAMES set true and displaying correct dblink .
    Hope this will be helpful :)

  • Had problem with bookmarks, history, back button and google links not working.

    For the last five days i've had problems with firefox. First, i noticed that it was running incredibly slowly and then that all the links in the google search were not working. Then i noticed that neither was the history, bookmarks or back button. I went on to facebook chat to ask for help. First, I was told to reinstall firefox, which didn't work. Then i was told to do a "clean" install where you rename the old firefox folder in the programs folder so that it makes sure when it's installed that everything is new and nothing is corrupted. That didn't work either. I then disabled my antivirus software and firewall to see if that was causing the problem. It was not. Then I installed an anti-malware program to remove any adware or spywar,e which it did remove from my computer, but it didn't solve the problem. The chat person was at a loss and I don't blame him/her because so was I.
    The reason I'm writing this is in case anyone else has the same problem. The only way I solved it was first by uninstalling and making sure to check the little box asking if you want all personal data and such associated with firefox also removed (which removes cookies as well) and then I finally thought to delete all the cookies from the rest of my computer also. Once all the cookies were gone and i had fully uninstalled firefox and personal data, I reinstalled it with a newly downloaded file and it is once again functioning properly. Hope this is helpful to anyone who's been ripping their hair out. :)

    '''I have the same problem!!
    But in my case, not just Google links.
    The problem happens with all the websites links.

  • My host name changes every few days, since Xmas adding a macbook its changed 6 times. Do I need to stop this? Does it cause problems with sharing between the iMac and macbook?

    my host name changes every few days, since Xmas adding a macbook its changed 6 times. Do I need to stop this? Does it cause problems with sharing between the iMac and macbook?

    There are several possible causes for this problem.
    1. Two (or more) computers on the local network have the same Bonjour name, such as "X's-MacBook-Pro.local".
    2. You have two simultaneous connections to the same local network: probably Ethernet and Wi-Fi. If applicable, disconnect the Ethernet cable or turn off Wi-Fi.
    3. A Mac wakes from sleep due to network traffic. This is due to a bug in OS X that may only affect some models.
    4. A device that gets its network address from the router wakes from sleep, and the address it was using before has been assigned to another device.
    5. A third-party wireless router has incompatible settings or firmware. In that case, refer to the manufacturer or ISP for support. Restarting the router may help, temporarily.
    6. See also this support article.
    Rename the computer in the Sharing preference pane.

  • Problems hosting iWeb with domain name.

    I have a business web site that I host with iWeb08 using a domain name. I had the domain name working perfectly with iWeb. I would log on to my web site via my domain name and all my content was there as I expected. Whenever I upload a new addition to the web site I always click "view published site" which is taking me to http://web.me.com/username/pages and everything is there as I expected it. Recently, I went to my web site via my domain name and realized that all my recent updates are not being hosted online (with domain name). web.me is fine though. I checked the registration on my domain name and it is active. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance

    Are you using url forwarding? If so, perhaps you changed your mobile me site in a way that requires you to change your forwarding as well.
    Could you provide both urls so we can see the differences you are talking about?

    I have two location one is Delhi(IP-192.168.100.*) and another is Mumbai(IP-192.168.1.*) and both are connected by MPLS line and ping with each other.
    We have one DC in Delhi location and domain name is CAPLDC and Delhi location all PC is member of this domain and working properly.
    now i am trying join the Mumbai location PC with my Domain(CAPLDC) but they are not join with my DC and generate the error.
    I have chek the DNS and nslookup all are correct but this is generate error. 
     Is this possible Mumbai location join with this Domain(CAPLDC)???
    One more thing when i have created another DC with this name (papldc.com) then Mumbai location is joined properly.
    Pls find the error message below and also find the attachment.
    Note: This information is intended for a network administrator.  If you are not your network's administrator, notify the administrator that you received this information, which has been recorded in the file C:\Windows\debug\dcdiag.txt.
    The domain name "capldc" might be a NetBIOS domain name.  If this is the case, verify that the domain name is properly registered with WINS.
    If you are certain that the name is not a NetBIOS domain name, then the following information can help you troubleshoot your DNS configuration.
    DNS was successfully queried for the service location (SRV) resource record used to locate a domain controller for domain "capldc":
    The query was for the SRV record for _ldap._tcp.dc._msdcs.capldc
    The following domain controllers were identified by the query:
    capldcserver.capldc
    win-dyfq2poc88q.capldc
    However no domain controllers could be contacted.
    Common causes of this error include:
    - Host (A) or (AAAA) records that map the names of the domain controllers to their IP addresses are missing or contain incorrect addresses.
    - Domain controllers registered in DNS are not connected to the network or are not running.

    Why are you using a single labeled domain? I would recommend renaming the domain name to be something like domain.com.
    Please refer to the articles below to fix your current issue:

  • Problem with song names

    Hey, I'm having this problem with song names. For example, instead of the song title being "Song Title" it will be like "Artist Name - Song Title". It's like this for half my files. I'm trying to organize my music files and every time I fix it, it keeps going back.
    This has happened to me before and usually if I double click it, it will automatically change. This time, nothing seems to work except doing it manually ("Get Info)" and that would take too long since I have 7,000 files like this. I posted this on another board and somebody said to right click the songs and click Update ID3 v2.4 which originally worked, but now nothing but manually doing it works.
    This is like this when I open it for other programs, but I know iTunes caused. I think it has something to do with the "Keep my iTunes Folder Organized" check because iTunes renames the file. I also tried reinstalling itunes and readding my files.
    Thanks for any help!

    I don't completely understand what you are trying to say, but iTunes doesn't automatically change your tag information.
    iTunes stores a copy of the tag information in the library database. When you play a track, iTunes re-reads the tag information from the song file and updates the library data. This produces the efferct that iTunes appears to change tag information but it isn't, it is meerly reflecting a change that already happend.
    Do you have any other software on your PC that can automatically change tag information? For example Windows Media player can do it if you select an option to retrieve data from the internet and overwrite existing info. But other software may do it too.
    If you want to force iTunes to re-read all tags, go to your Music view and go to Edit>>Select All. Then right click in the selection and choose Get Info. Don't change anything, just exit by clicking OK. iTunes will update the library with the tag information from the song files.

  • Strange problem with Domain Values

    Dear All,
      I encounter one strange problem with Domain Fixed Values.
    Background:
       We have a custom domain ( ZXREF2) created for custom data element(ZXREF2) which has replaced standard dataelement in BSEG for field XREF2. This domain has 12 Fixed values. The idea was to have F4 help for field "Reference Key2" in FBL5N/FBL01 tcodes. It is working fine with these 12 Fixed value, means, on F4 we could see all these 12 values and when selecting a line from F4 the entry got thru the screen validation ( plz note hat this validation is like checking the mandatory value so this is done even before PAI).
    Problem:
      The requirement was to add a new line to F4 values( tecnically, 13th record in domain ZXREF2). We added this line to domain and moved to Quality system. Its working fine in both Dev and Qality, but the strange problem occured after moving and testing in Production.
      In production, we could see all 13 lines in F4 help. <b>BUT</b>, after selecting the new one( 13th one), and after the value appears on screen field, when Enter is pressed, it gives error message "Enter Valid value".
       This error message also comes when we enter any value which is not there in F4. That means, system is able to recognize the new value in F4, but falied to validate that.
      We thought that, this might be the problem with Buffer, and request Client to re-start the system. Even after system restart, it still gives the same error message.
    Please note that, the error message is triggered even before PAI of the screen called. So noway( I already tried system debugging) we can debug this error message to findout the rootcause.
    Any quick help would be highly appriciated.
    Thanks and Regards,
    Prasad.

    Hello Max,
      I guess DB Utility ( SE14 ) is to be run only when there is a change at structure level, to make Runtime and Database objects in sync. Here, we just added a new line to existing domain, and this added a new row to the Database table DD07T/DD07L.
      Could you please expalin it more clearly if your view is different that what I just described. 
    Prasad.

  • Problem with variable name in ZXRSRTOP include (virtual KF)

    Hi all,
    I am coding a routine to use a virtual key figure in the BEx.
    I have just a little problem with the name of a variable:
    as explained in the documentation, I created the variable with the prefix G_POS_, the name of the infocube and the name of the infoobject all together:
    DATA: G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__C_COMPAR   type i.
    The problem is that this variable name is longer than 30 characters, so the system doesn't accept it.
    Is there a workaround, other than changing the name of the infoobject (which is a navigational attribute)?
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Loï

    Hello Marc,
    I understand that I have to use a concatenate function and a dynamic call of the variable with (variable) instruction, but i do not understand how to implement it.
    the infocube name is BC_ST_003
    the characterisdtic name is C_DIV__COMPAR
    So, in the include ZXRSRTOP the statement
    DATA : G_POS_BC_ST_003_C_DIV__COMPAR
    does not work due a length problem (see first post)
    But in the same include the statement
    +DATA: l_global_name type c.
    concatenate 'GPOS' 'BC_ST_003' 'C_DIV__C_COMPAR' into l_global_name separated by '_'.+
    drives to the following error : statement is not accessible.
    Could u please provide me with an example of the code in the include ZXRSRTOP, and in the include ZXRSRZZZ for the use of this variable.
    Thanks in advance.
    Loï

  • Help me please : Serious problems with collection-mapping, list-mapping and map-mappi

    Hi everybody;
    I have serious problems with list-mapping, collection-mapping and map-mapping.
    Acording to specifications and requirements in a system I am working on it is needed to
    get a "list" of values or an indivudual value.I am working with ORACLE 9i Database,
    ORACLE 9i AS and ORACLE 9i JDEVELOPER.
    I tried to map a master-detail relationship in an entity-bean, using list-mapping.
    And this was very useful in order to get a "list" of details, ...but, when I wanted
    to get a single value I have some problems with persistence, something about "saving a state"
    despite I just want to get the value of a single detail.
    I decided to change it to map-mapping and the problem related with a single detail
    worked successfully, but I can get access to the whole bunch of details.
    May anyone of you help me with that?
    I am very confused I do not know what to do.
    Have any of you a solution for that problem?
    Thank you very much.

  • Problem with use of COM+ Transaction and DB Transaction

    Problem with use of COM+ Transaction and DB Transaction
    We build a Web site that use sometime COM+ Transaction and sometime DB
    Transaction. If we use a COM+ Transaction and a few seconds later we try to use
    a Database Transaction (OracleConnection.BeginTransaction), we get the error
    Connection is already part of a local or a distributed transaction
    Of course the error does not produce everytime; it takes some try before we get
    the problem. And of course, if i use pooling=false on the connection string,
    the problem does not appear.

    Never mind, I already found the solution myself.
    What I did wrong was:
    - not copying the master image to the nbi folder
    - selecting the netinstall-restore.dmg image as source to copy to my HD.
    The thing is, when you create a netinstall image for 10.5, the image itself is already included in the netinstall image so you don't have to do anything else.
    With the 10.4 image however, you also have to copy the master image to the NetBootSP0 directory.
    In the *.nbi folder contains an netinstall-restore.dmg file. But that is only to boot you to netrestore, it's not the image itself.
    Other alternative is to copy the images to another folder that you share with AFP and adjust the configuration of netrestore like described in this manual:
    http://www.shellharbourd.det.nsw.edu.au/pdf/misc/osxrestoringnet.pdf
    This manual was also how I figured out that I forgot to copy the image to the NetBootSP0 folder.
