Unable to connect to Database Error in FDM application creation

Hi All,
I have Installed Financial Data Quality Management 11.1.2.2 in my machine. Database [Oracle 11g R2 64 bit] and client[Oracle client 32 bit] also installed in the same machine.
We selected the following components while installing Oracle client[Custom installation],
Oracle Objects for OLE
Oracle Data Provider for .NET
Oracle Providers for ASP.NET
Oracle Provider for OLEDB
Complete the install.
When I tried to create FDM application it throws me the following error. Unable to connect to Database. Please check the database information and verify the database is accessible.
Kindly guide me to overcome this issue.
Thanks and Regards
Sai

Hi Sai,
first of all, you have posted FDM issue in Essbase forum. Thats the reason you didn't get replies to this issue.
To resolve this, we need to Oracle Client 32 bit first then Oracle Client 64 bit.
Install Oracle Clients completly. (As per documentation, we need to install Clients completly. Means choose Administrator, not instant client and custom)
After installing also if get same error, Goto Environment variables, Edit PATH variable and copy the 32 bit Client path to the first in the PATH variable.
Then reboot the Server and try again to create FDM application.
Thanks,
mady

Apparently you guys have figured out a fix for this, but my command of JDeveloper/J2EE jargon is pretty limited at this point in my learning curve. (I've heard about Jndi, but have no idea what it does). Is there a statement I can add to the web.xml file that will fix this? If so, what is that statement, and where does it go in web.xml?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that the error occurred when you accessed SharePoint site through form based authentication.
How did you configure the form based authentication?
Here is a link about the steps required to configure FBA in SharePoint 2010 for your reference, and check the steps to see if there anything wrong in your configuration:
http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/352841/How-to-Configure-Form-Based-Authentication-FBA-in
Through the common error message, we cannot find what exactly caused the error.
Here is a similar thread for you to take a look:

Server Error in '/' Application - The resource cannot be found

Using VS 2008 with Framework 3.5, I built a web-service that runs perfectly on the development PC. When I build and run the web service, it runs in a virtual port as "ASP.Net Development Server Port 49259". All the methods will
invoke no problem. However, if I try bring up this web-service asmx page on another PC or the mobile app that is cradled to the development PC via USB, I get: Server Error in '/' Application. The resource cannot be found. HTTP 404...
This app ran just fine back in October13 but I opened for further development over the weekend and I cannot work because of this. I have updated PC and VS with latest updates (problem before & after updates). Using 3.5 because I am using
Windows Mobile 5.0 Clients. I have searched the forum universe for the solution and have found many people with this error but with other platforms.
I am using the DefaultApplicationPool and I made sure that the local security has READ access on the web service file folders. I hope this is something simple that I am missing.
And help - grateful!

Hello,
Thank you for your post.
I am afraid that the issue is out of support range of VS General Question forum which mainly discusses

If you are working with ASP.NET Web Application, I suggest that you can consult your issue on ASP.NET

Hi
After I ran SharePoint configuration wizard successfully to upgrade to SharePoint 2013 / SP1.
I can open Central Administration site just fine.
but now when I open any Site collection, I got this error.
Server Error in '/' Application
This operation can be performed only on a computer that is joined to a server farm by users who have permissions in SQL Server to read from the configuration database. To connect this server to the server farm, use the SharePoint Products Configuration
Wizard, located on the Start menu in Microsoft SharePoint 2010 Products
I have restarted all the servers: SQL server, WFE and APP servers but still cann't get this resolve.
Services on all servers are running, IIS - application pools are running.
Can someone help with where that could be a problem or if there is a solution.
Thanks in advance for your comments or advices.

Please verify the followings:
Make sure that from the SharePoint front end and application servers that you can ping your SQL server.
Make sure that your Farm account has permission to the configuration database.
Lastly verify that your database didn't for some reasons go into recovery mode.
once everything is fine and you are still having issues, restart the SQL host service on the SQL server.
Once the service is restarted you will need to reboot Central Admin and then your front end servers.
In addition, as you built your farm inside the firewall, please disable the firwall, or create rules for SQL Server service in the firwall on SQL server.
More information about creating rules in firewall, please refer to the following posts: http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/c5d4d0d0-9a3b-4431-8150-17ccfbc6fb82/can-not-create-data-source-to-an-sql-server http://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/1929/configure-windows-firewall-to-work-with-sql-server/

Hi Avinash
Thanks for your quick reply.
I have tried the steps you described and now I'm getting an Error 500.
But I cannot see anywhere into the web.config filr the tag "trace".
My project manager told me that the problem wasn't into the web.config file but the problem has to do with the server being out of the domain. Now the server is back into the domain and I can't really connect my Sharepoint to the FARM.
I'm so confused but I'm still convinced the problem is in the web.config. Is there any onther technic I can use to fix this problem?
Thanks again for your help

Why does opening some links in Firefox causes a "Server Error in '/' Application Runtime Error" but not in "Internet Explorer"?

When I click on some links in an email (and Firefox is the default browser) I get the following error:
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An exception occurred while processing your request. Additionally, another exception occurred while executing the custom error page for the first exception. The request has been terminated.
If, however, I click the same links (and Internet Explorer is the default browser) I do not get any error and the proper content of the link is displayed.
What is causing this error? As I prefer Firefox, how can this problem be fixed?
OS Windows 7, Service Pack 1
Firefox Version 32.0.1
Internet Explorer Version 11.0.9600.17280
Thank you for your assistance.
Prime

When you look at the address in the address bar, does it seem to match up with the email?
Sounds like Firefox sent the server something it wasn't expecting. Sometimes this can be caused by obsolete or corrupted cookies -- assuming you have visited the site before. It also might be caused by modifications to standard information sent to servers such as the "user agent" string that specifies your browser version and OS.
To clear a site's cookies, while viewing a page on the site, either:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?

George Ferreira

Hi George,
According to your description, my understanding is that you got an error when you used SharePoint 2013.
Please change the web.config files as the followings:
1.In customErrors tag set mode="Off" to "On
2.In SafeMode tag set CallStack="true" to false
3.In Compilation tag Debug="false" to true
There are three web.config files you need to change, the paths are:
1.C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\TEMPLATE\LAYOUTS\web.config
2.C:\inetpub\wwwroot\wss\VirtualDirectories\Port_Number\web.config
3.C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web Server Extensions\15\CONFIG\web.config
Finally reset IIS to do go to windows start->run->IISRESET (for this you must have administrative permissions).
More information, please refer to the link below:

Server Error in '/' Application. WRT54GL Mangling traffic?

Okay, here goes. Maybe someone can help me understand this behavior and what I might be able to do to fix it.
I run both wired and wireless at home, a netgear 10/100/1000 workgroup switch in my room for multiple PC's and a fileserver. Connected directly to a WRT54GL. Which is connected to one other PC, and provides wireless service for 2 Laptops, a PSP, a DS, and a few other devices. So, here's the issue. This linksys is relatively new (picked it up less than a month ago.)
A few random sites, I come across an error basically stating "Server error in '/' application." One fine example is http://www.ntreev.net (a site that provides a game service i actively play.)
This is the most prominent, as I used to regularly visit that site. Now, since installing my WRT54GL, I can't even visit the site without that error. Luckily, I still have the forums/etc bookmarked. But any account maintenance, logging in, or even trying to view the updates for games, all result in that error. For the curious, here's what I have tried so far... :
Turn off SPI/Firewall protection : Still no go.
Filter NAT Redirection : No go.
Disable all VPN/IPSEC passthru (of course not entirely relevent) : No go.
Add my PC to DMZ and disable anything for my NAT ip : Nope there too.
Plug directly into the router, bypassing the netgear 10/100/1000 switch in my room. : Nope ...
Rebooting all of the network equipment, and PC's still cause the behavior.
Laptop on wireless or wired directly to the router : Nope ... I'm seeing a pattern here.
Remove router entirely, plug PC directly into Surfboard cable modem. It works perfectly.
What is this router doing to my outgoing web traffic that's causing this. I dropped 50$ on something that is mangling traffic and I've no way to fix it. I've upgraded to the latest firmware, and it did nothing to help me. All that did was cause me to have to set up mac filters for the wireless(again,) and more.
I've been playing with options here and there for 2 weeks, in combination, to see if there's anything I can do to remedy this, but it's all a no go.
Anyone have any ideas that may help?
Thanks in advance,
Chris
(Just a note : I tried my old netgear, and it worked fine, only problem with that is it locks up regularly, and loses settings on restart/power cycles, so I replaced it with a fairly well reviewed box. So I know its not my switch, and its not my cable modem, nor any part of my network, except the WRT54GL... as things work without it in the equation.)
Message Edited by Fury216 on 07-13-2009 06:14 AM

Hello,
Thanks for the reply (again,) and sorry I couldn't get back here for a while...
I couldn't do this for a while because I had exams and projects online that I absolutely had to finish this week, so last night I broke down and decided to look at things a bit more.
I went ahead and reflashed it with the current (latest) firmware, directly from : http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/support/WRT54GL/download , chose my version, 1.1 and installed it.
I reset my router, repeatedly already, but did it once more. I didn't configure all of my options, but got it online at least. (Didn't want to bother entering all the mac addresses for wireless access again at the moment.)
Same behavior, I am starting to really get frustrated with this as anytime I want visit this site (which is quite a bit ...), I have to go unplug my modem, unplug my router, plug my PC's network cable directly in the modem, and plug it back in, in which case I can get to it just fine. Then when I'm done and have no need to be on that site for a while, I can put everything back normally. But for any account maintenance, web based stuff (games, etc), and more on there, I have to physically remove my linksys from the network in order for it to function.
I am seriously at a loss with this, as it's been more than 30 days since I've bought this network problem (my WRT54GL), and therefore can't return it now. Anyone have any more ideas/options ?
Thanks

Server Error in '/' Application. - WEBPAGE WON'T OPEN??!

when i'm connected to the internet, every website seems to work fine, except on one site, which up until this last week has always been fine.
the page comes up with this:
Server Error in '/' Application.
Runtime Error
Description: An application error occurred on the server. The current custom error settings for this application prevent the details of the application error from being viewed remotely (for security reasons). It could, however, be viewed by browsers running on the local server machine.
Details: To enable the details of this specific error message to be viewable on remote machines, please create a <customErrors> tag within a "web.config" configuration file located in the root directory of the current web application. This <customErrors> tag should then have its "mode" attribute set to "Off".

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="Off"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
Notes: The current error page you are seeing can be replaced by a custom error page by modifying the "defaultRedirect" attribute of the application's <customErrors> configuration tag to point to a custom error page URL.

<configuration>
<system.web>
<customErrors mode="RemoteOnly" defaultRedirect="mycustompage.htm"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>
I have no idea what that means and no idea how to sort it out.
Any ideas?
i book g4 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

the webpage is www.myspace.com
it is only when i enter my login details will it say all the error details.
and im using safari, which i have always used.
i dont know why it would have changed as this site had been added to my bookmarks and always been the same?!
thanks
