RE: Rel 3.0 and Oracle

Debbie,
Yes, we have the same (or similar) problem. When trying to connect to
Oracle I get some type of deserialization error & a connection is never
made. I've sent it in to tech support & I haven't heard anything back.
On a side note, I'm also having a problem on 3.0.E.0 when I lose the
initial connection & try to re-connect. The reconnect fails. We're
trying to implement the Forte Persistence Plan using the DBResourceMgr.
I've been working with Tech Support for over 2 weeks, but we still
haven't solved the problem.

Subject: Rel 3.0 and Oracle
To all,
We have just upgraded our development environment to Forte Rel
3.0.f.2 and
now we can no longer get a connection to Oracle 7.3.3. Has anyone else
had a
problem after the upgrade to 3.0? We are using the remote connection.
Automatic_ipc has been set to off in the sqlnet.ora Nothing has
changed on the
Oracle side or with any Oracle related environment parameters.
We have put a
problem into Forte on this also.
Basically our development has ground to a halt, so any help would
be greatly
appreciated.
Thanks,

To all,
Thank you all for the quick response. The problem turned out to be the
FORTE_STACK_SIZE parameter. Although we were not getting the sympton
described in tech note 10908 I decided to set the parameter to the
recommended minimum described in the tech note. After setting the parameter
we were able to connect to Oracle.
So if anyone has connection problems when upgrading, this is something to
look at even if your symptoms do not match those described in the tech note.
Thanks again,

Rel 3.0 and Oracle

Debbie,
2.0 of Forte Utilized a specific connection String. Example efudd.MED
(WHERE efudd was the specific machine name and MED was the Oracle SID
Reference.
3.0 of Forte has changed where they are more "OPEN" and are completely
utilizing Oracle. The particular file that it looks for is as follows:
/ORACLE_HOME/network/admin/trnsnames.ora
The syntax is @[TNSResourceName
An Example would be...
@testora or @ (for a completely local connection)
Forte does a pretty good job of documenting this on page 29 of Accessing
Databases. Since we're a tool vendor we seem to run into these database
issues quite frequently. I hope the information was helpful.
Thank you,

Bug in Oracle Outlook Connector 10,1,1,0,2 (1431) and Oracle Forms 6i Rel 2

Hello,
I installed Oracle Outlook Connector. 10,1,1,0,2 (1431)
We are using Oracle Collaboration Suite on a 10g database.
On the Desktop.
I am using.
a) MS/OFFICE Outlook 2003.
b) Oracle Forms and Reports 6i Release 2.
c) Oracle instance client 10.1
d) Windows XP HOME SP2.
What happens?
1) Oracle Run Time Forms 6i and Oracle/MS Outlook 2003 run fine(Work) when I run them ONE AT A TIME!
2) When I run them together(At the same time) I receive this error message. FRM-40735 ORA-06508.
I have narrowed it down to an Oracle Connector 10g problem.
How did I do that?
In XP Home you can create multi-user accounts.
I created a new user account this time I connected to Microsoft Exchange Server 2000.
Results. Oracle runtime 6i works at the same time as MS Outlook 2003.
I am able to use both Programs at the same time. Without any error messages.
Next Step.
I created a new user account and this time I used an Oracle Connector 10.1g for MS Outlook 2003.
Results: Same error message as before. Ran the application(s) at the same time. FRM-40735 and ORA-06508
Please help with any ideas.
Thank you
Dennis

The product managers look through the forum threads periodically. Some more regularly than others. Since I only look at the forum about once a week, I'm probably the least regular of the PMs. Development also scans the forum, but less regularly.
If you have urgent issues that requires action/response from Oracle, it is better to open an SR with Oracle Support.
Hope that helps,

Oracle v7 and Oracle 9i Release 2

Hi,
Does anyone know a way to allow both database to communicate with each other? Assuming that both of time are residing in a separate machine and Oracle v7 is hosted in HP-UX and Oracle 9i is hosted in Windows 2003.
thanks.

Thanks. :)
So what kind of solution do you propose if i want my v7 to talk to 9i Rel 2? i would like to upgrade one of the DB to 9i and still retain the function. currently, the function is to fetch data from one DB to the other using DBLink. So if i upgrade one of them to 9i, then this option will not be available.
i m thinking of creating an application to act as a medium between v7 and 9i so that whatever PL/SQL that go over to 9i, will be intercepted by this application and the latter will fetch the data from 9i and transmit back to v7. the connection between v7 and the application will be ODBC/JDBC depending on what language the application is developed in.
What does everyone think about it?
cheers

Need a function name for Sql and Oracle

Retrieving value of next line by doing opteration in previous row.

Can you rephrase the question? Or better yet, provide an example? I'm not sure I understand what you are asking.
My best guess is that you are looking for the analytic functions LEAD or LAG in Oracle, assuming you are on a relatively recent Oracle version. If by "SQL and Oracle" in your subject you mean "SQL Server and Oracle" (SQL is a language that all relational databases implement, SQL Server is Microsoft's relational database), I have no idea how (or if) you can do something similar with a built-in function in SQL Server. You would want to post in a SQL Server group to see how they handle that sort of thing.

Compatability between Forms 6(Forms 6i also) and Oracle Database 10g

Hai All,
I want to know Any Compatible issue between ORACLE FORMS 6 (ORACLE FORMS 6i also ) and Oracle Database 10g .
Any special patches, parameters needed?
Any white paper describing this document.
Please help?
shiju

Forms 6i Patches pre 16 and 10g databases - many problems
Forms 6i Patch 17 - 10g DB Rel.1 - certified
Forms 6i Patch 18 - 10g DB Rel.2 - certified only for E-Business-Suite-user

Forms 6i and Oracle 10g

Hi,
we got a new database running oracle 10g. So I installed the 10g Client on my workstation in a new oracle-home, because toad won't run with a 10g database with a 8i-client. Now I got 2 oracle_homes. I added the entry for the new database in both tnsnames.ora. When I try to run the forms6i-application nothings happens. When I try to connect the Forms6i-Builder with the new database, I got Dr. Watson.
Any ideas?
PS: I got Forms6i Patch 16 installed.

From metalink
Forms / Reports 6i + patchset 16 or patchset 17 is certified to work against Oracle Server (RDBMS)
10g Rel 1
Refer to the Metalink Certification matrices, for example:
- http://metalink.oracle.com
- Click on Certify & Availability
- Click on View Certifications by Product
- Choose Development Tools, click Submit
- Choose Oracle Forms 6i, click Submit
- Choose a platform e.g MS Windows 2000, click submit
- Check the box for 6.0.8.25.2 Patch 16, click submit
The Server column under Application Tier Certifications matrix shows that Forms 6i is certified to work against Oracle Server 10g. This includes the base release of Oracle Server 10g Rel 1 and any patchsets later applied to the base release.
Forms / Reports 6i has never been certified, nor will it ever be certified against Oracle Server (RDBMS) 10g Rel 2. (This is because Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported - see important note below)
Important Note: Forms / Reports 6i is now de-supported e.g.
- If running in client-server mode, Forms / Reports 6i was desupported at end of January 2005
- If deploying over the web, Forms / Reports 6i (Oracle 9iAS Rel 1 Forms / Reports Services) was desupported at the end of June 2004
This means that Forms / Reports development will no longer provide an error correction service for Forms / Reports 6i (unless an organisation has purchased extended maintenance support) Therefore, Oracle strongly recommends that customers using desupported versions upgrade to a supported version e.g upgrade to Oracle Developer Suite 10g Rel 1 or 2 / Oracle Application Server 10g Rel 1 or 2

Select query differences between oracle 9 and oracle 8.

Hi,
I have a problem using the select query between oracle 7 and oracle 9i I don't have the same result :
ex:
With oracle7
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP 'CHAMP
champ1 champ2
With Oracle 9
SQL> select 'champ1','champ2' from DUAL;
'CHAMP1' 'CHAMP2'
champ1 champ2
So Can someone tell me how to solve this problem ? Is there a parameter in oracle 9 to set?
Thanx.

Whenever you are posting anything over internet forums like this - you should be very careful about not just posting the details which requires to solve the problem - also should be sensible about your question.
This is not at all desired when you are posting such question. It may be because - you may not well aware of the fact.
My suggestion is -> First Go through the basics Of SQL in general.
Then go for any specific product like Oracle/ SQL Server/ Sybase etc.
And, finally learn the advanced commands of that DB.
You asked it - may be you thought the difference in output in terms of lines. But, that is not your actual output. That is the graphical display part only.
Anyway,
You can get the quite familier output by first type the following command ->
set lin 310Regards.

Oracle Single Sign on and Oracle Internet Directory

Hello Gurus,
What is the relationship between Oracle Single Sign on and Oracle Internet Directory.
To my understanding, OID is required to install SSO.
If OID already exist, can we just install SSO and go on integrating it to existing OID.
Great Thanks,

Hi Tim,
I've been working on this and could reproduce the issue with anonymous binds. A fix will be ready in 4.2.1.
So what I really need is the password used for login to pass to the is_member call.The P101_PASSWORD item does not save state. However, you can access the value during submit processing of the login page, for example in the post authentication function of your authentication scheme. People sometimes put code in there to query the user's groups (e.g. with apex_ldap.member_of2) and save them in an application. This item value can then be used in the authorization schemes.

Christian

Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms

Hi,
Does anyone have experience with Oracle Spatial and Oracle Forms?
I have generated a form, which is based on a view. The view uses the mdsys.sdo_relate operator. Somehow I am unable to get the form to perform (to get one record it takes over 20 minutes). While useing sql-navigator to process the same statement it seems no problem. The query that also uses the view, is then processed in 10 seconds.
I also noticed that when text-functions like ' lower' of ' upper' are used to query the view, the query is processed within 15 seconds. If I don't use ' lower' or ' upper' it takes a long time (> 20 minutes) to process the query. Is it possible that this causes the bad performance of the form?
On metalink I have found that forms and spatial do not cooperate because of the pl/sql version that
forms6 uses. There is no solution presented, does anyone know of a work around?
My configuration is:
Oracle 8.1.7 on WIN2K @ PIII-800Mhz 256 Mb memory.
Formsbuilder 6
If requested I can post the queries that I have made.
With regards,

Hello Priya,
Look into the following.
1. Book - Pro Oracle Spatial for Oracle Database 11g by r. Kothuri, A. Godfrind, E. Beinat. This book provides a nice introduction on Oracle Spatial concepts and have examples.
2. Look at the Oracle Spatial & Graph User Guide
2. Book - Applying and Extending Oracle Spatial by S. Greener and S. Ravada. This book provides hands on information for advanced oracle spatial application developers. Practical guide on hands-on examples, Data models and develop cross-vendor database solutions.
3. This oracle spatial forum, once you understand these concepts.
In the future consider Certification on Oracle Spatial 11g Certified Implementation Specialist.

Limitation on SQL executing select statement from ADO and Oracle 8.1.7.1 OleDB Driver

Hi,
we are running a query with a big dunamic select statement from VB code using ADO command object. When Execute method is called system hangs and control won't return back to the application. it seems to be that there is some type limitation on Query string length. Please tell us if there is any?
we are running Oracle 8.1.7 Server on Windows 200 Server and connecting from a W2K professional, ADO 2.6 and Oracle OLEDB 8.1.7.1 OLEDB Driver.
Sample code:
Dim rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim cmd As ADODB.Command
Set cmd = New Command
With cmd
.CommandText = ' some text with more than 2500 characters
.CommandType = adCmdText
Set rs = .Execute
End With
when i debug using VB6 and when .Execute line is called system hangs or return a message method <<somemethod> of <<some class name>> failed error.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks,
Anil

A stored procedure would only slow you down here if it was poorly written. I suspect you want to use the translate function. I'm cutting & pasting examples from the documentation-- a search at tahiti.oracle.com will give you all the info you'll need.
Examples
The following statement translates a license number. All letters 'ABC...Z' are translated to 'X' and all digits '012 . . . 9' are translated to '9':
SELECT TRANSLATE('2KRW229',
'0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ',
'9999999999XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX') "License"
FROM DUAL;
License
9XXX999
The following statement returns a license number with the characters removed and the digits remaining:
SELECT TRANSLATE('2KRW229',
'0123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ', '0123456789')
"Translate example"
FROM DUAL;
Translate example
2229
Also, LIKE '%<string>%' is going to be rather expensive simply because it has to compare the entire string and because it forces full table scans, rather than using indexes. You could speed this sort of query up by using interMedia Text (Oracle Text now in 9i). If you can eliminate one of the '%' options, you could also improve things.
My guess is that your stored procedure is inefficient and that's causing the problem-- 5k rows per table should be pretty trivial.
If you post your query over on the PL/SQL forum, there are better performance tuners than I that might have more hints for you. To get really good advice, though, you'lllikely have to get at least the execution plan for this statement and may need to do some profiling to identify the problem areas.

New to XML and Oracle

Just trying to clarify some issues as I try and learn about XML, and specifically how it integrates into the DB.
1 - Is there a way with Oracle tools for me to get an XSD of an existing 9i relational schema? We are not currently using the XML DB, but our middleware developers would like to have an up to date XSD to use for their internal mapping.
2 - Is there any way that I can keep that XSD up-to-date automatically, so I get a new one whenever the schema gets updated?
3 - If I wanted to investigate storing XML docs within the DB in native XML format, I need to have an XML DB, correct? Is this DB construct maintained seperatelly from my "normal" relational schema? or are they kept in sync by Oracle?
I know these may all be real basic questions, but as I said, I'm new to XML and Oracle. I am reading as much as I can, but there are a lot of docs out there.
Thanks,
Mike

Hi
1. On my opinion such a tool doesn't exists. Some parts can be implemented elsewhere, but not as described by you... e.g. with XSU if you specify the parameter "withschema" the XSD of the executed statement is generated. Another example is to use DBMS_METADATA to dump the data dictionary in XML (but not XSD, of course you could write your own XSLT to do this transformation...).
2. -
3. If you use XSD-based tables the XSD and the relational model are stored separately in the data dictionary. Therefore if you change the XSD you have to drop/create the XSD-based table... no schema evolution yet.

SRM 4.0 Installation Master and Oracle Installation

Dear Members, I am trying to install SRM 4.0 in sandbox using the SRM 4.0 Installation Master DVD.

Problem with Java 5 and Oracle 10g JDBC driver

Hi All,
Currently we upgrade our web application to Java 5 and Oracle 10.2 JDBC driver. And we encountered a bug, when the user entered the information through UI and data didn't store into database (Oracle 9i). The problem is that this bug is not happend so often maybe once a day and this did not happen before we upgraded to Java 5 and Oracle 10.2 JDBC driver. Does anyone encounter the same problem ? Is this Java 5 problem or Oracle JDBC driver problem ?
Thanks,

sounds like a database problem...
Are you using a driver version that's supported for your database engine?
What else did you change? We once ran into a major bug in our application that had for 5 years been masked by performance problems in our hardware and infrastructure.
Once those were resolved the bug showed itself and caused tens of thousands of records to be erroneously inserted into our database every day.
It's certainly NOT a problem with your JVM (if it's a decent one, like the Sun implementation).
So it's either your database, your driver, your network (dropping packets???), or your application.
The upgrade may just have exposed something that was already there.
