Running Pro*C from client machine

Hi
I trying to run a Pro*c program which tries to connect to DB which is running on different server.
While running this I am getting "ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error".
One suggestion I found that Pro*C application should run on DB server.
is there any workaround so that we can run pro*C from client machine?
Or running on server is only possibility?
Thanks
Shailesh

Sorry, I may have misunderstood your problem. I believe that this issue has to do with your tnsnames.ora file. You need to configure your DB to be able to talk to the Pro*C program. In order to do this, you need to set up an LISTENER for EXTERNAL_PROC (for external processes). This is automatically created when you install the DB. You can also create a listener using Network configuration manager. You just need to specify the proctocol, IPC or TCP/IP and the KEY = extproc (can be anything)
listener.ora (techobs.com is just the domain name)
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC0))
TNSNAMES.ora where you you must specify the SID for the external proc
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA.TECHOBS.COM =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(Key = EXTPROC0))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = extp))
Note: I learned this when doing the installation of OC. If I am wrong, I would hope that somebody would show me where because this is Oracle DBA.

Forms and Reports 10g run on the other client machine

Dear Sir,
Please tell me how to run forms/reports which is compiled/build in ORACLE 10g.
I mean that I have build some forms and reports in Oracle 10g now I want to run them on another client machine without creating oracle application server. Is there any way to run
As example in oracle 6.0 i we only install forms and reports services at client machine and ours froms/ reports are running. Can we do so in 10g also ??
Please guide me about it.
Ghulam Yassen

without creating oracle application server. That is not possible. Forms 10 only runs in web mode, so you need the OAS with the Forms and Reports sever (OAS Enterprise Edition) or the Forms and Reports 10g stand alone server.
in oracle 6.0 i we only install forms and reports services at client machineForms 6i was the last version that you can run in client/server mode.

How to get MAC address from client machine ?

Hi dear,
We are implementing security measures for a banking system, so it is required that we track the MAC address of the registered clients along with other parameters. How do we get the MAC address from client machine using ADF or running scripts in client side?
thanks all

Hi,
Welcome to OTN.
Your question has nothing to do with ADF as such. Googling would give you plenty of such topics.

But when we try to access the RAS from client machine to process report it is not accepting the request,
1. Do I need to grant access to any specific user group?
2. What is the user id which the Report Application Service runs in the machine?
3. Do I need to add / manage any guest acoount to request from client machine?

I can't understand what is "sab" where should i look for it.
2) Place the signed JavaBean JAR file (getclientinfo.jar.sig) in the codebase directory being used to deploy Oracle Forms Server 6i applications.
Can you kindly explain this.
3) where should we write <ARCHIVE = "f60all.jar, getclientinfo.jar.sig">
Can you kindly explain this.

How to find out a file from client machine

hi all,
I want to read a file from client machine, like a outlook express file in which all the address are saved, using servlet. Initially i do not know the file path for that file, How i can read that file.
plz help me
thanx in advace
Manish

You have 2 possibilities. First, you might be able to mount the client's disk drive at the server; the servlet can then access that drive directly. Second, install a client program on the client machine and communicate with that program, and have it do the search (or whatever).
Outside of Java, there are remote-access programs - like PCAnyWhere.

You can use cos.jar provided by O'Reilly from http://www.servlets.com/cos/. Take a look at com.oreilly.servlet.multipart.* classes.
Package is provided with source, classes, documentation and, of course, ready-to-use jar file.
It is really usefull and - ready!

Blob processing varies between databases; see also examples for whatever database you are using, e.g.

If you are storing text data instead of binary data, replace "blob" by "clob" in the searches.

Reading Large data files from client machine ( urgent)

Hi,
I want to know the best way for reading large data at about 75MB file from client machine and insert to the database.
Can anybody provide sample code for it.
Loading the file should be done at client machine and inserting into the database should be done at server side.
How should i load the file?
How should i transfer this file or data to server ?
How should i insert into the database ?
Thanks in advance.

Kalyan

Like I said before you should be using your application server to serve files >from the server off the filesystem. The database should not store files this big >and should instead just have a reference to this file. I think u have not understood the problem corectly.
I will make it clear.
The requirement is as follows.
This is a j2ee based application.
Application server is oracle application server.
Database is oracle9i
it is thick client (swing based application)
User enters datasource like c:\turkey.data
This turkey.data file contains data

like wise we may have more than 3 lacs rows in it.
We need to read this file and transfer this to the application server. Which are EJBS.
There we read this file each row in file is one row in the database for a table.
Like wise we need to insert 3 lacs records in the database.
We can use Jdbc to insert the data which is not a problem.
Only problem is how to transfer this data to server.
I can do it in one way. This is only a example
I can read all the data in StringBuffer and pass to server.
There again i get the data from StringBuffer and insert into database using jdbc.
This way if u do it. It is performance issue and takes long time to insert into the database.It even may give MemoryOutofBond exception.
just iam looking for the better way of doing this which may get good performace issue.
Hope u have understood the problem.

New User M.Senthil..

Hi,
Well,i don't know whether if this helps people here are not.
It is always a good practise to do it via Servlet and then download content.
The adavantage of doing this is
1). You may not need to pack the downloadable with the .war which you ultimately genrate which ceratinly help us in terms of faster deployment.
3). You may update the new content just by moving a file to the backup folder.
2).One may definately download the content irrespective to the content/file.
Hope example below helps..
Configurations:
In the above example we are assuming that we placing all downlodable file in D:/webapp/downlodables/ and you have configured the same path as a init param with the name "filePath" in your web.xml.
something like the one below.
<servlet>
    <servlet-name>DownloadServlet</servlet-name>
    <servlet-class>com.DownloadServlet</servlet-class>
    <init-param>
       <param-name>filePath</param-name>
       <param-value>D:/webapp/downlodables/</param-name>
       
    </init-param>

I have two system.One is client machine and installed oracle 11G client software.
and from this machine user can connect remote server database(This is old remote system, this is just for Information).
And i have created one new database called RMANP in new remote server machine (this is the machine, in which i need to connect from client machine)
ex
CLIENT MACHINE DETAIL IS:
system66
ip address is 192.162.21.66
REMOTE SEVER MACHINE DETAILS IS:
system56
ip address is 192.162.21.56.
and i add entry on client machine tnsname.ora file like following,
RMANP=

   (ADDRESS=
     (PROTOCOL=TCP)
     (HOST=192.168.21.56)
     (PORT=1521)
   (CONNECT_DATA=
     (SERVICE_NAME=rmanp)
But when i try to connect to remote server from client machine in sqlplus, i am getting an error, Like following,

There is nothing in your connect string to tell sqlplus which database you want to connect to. Therefore it assumes (by default) that you want to connect to a *local* database whose name is identified by the value of the environment variable ORACLE_SID. And there is no such database, so he gets the reported error trying to establish a connection to a non-existent local service.
You need to specify your target database, thusly:
SQL> conn sys/syspw@rmanp as sysdba
BTW, connecting to a remote database as sysdba is considered by most DBAs to be a big secruity breach. If you really need sysdba privileges (rare) you should be logged on to the database server machine with proper OS credentials, and work from there.
Also, TYPING IN ALL CAPS IS PERCEIVED AS SHOUTING.
