Setup tcp connection to external oracle database

Hello All,
I have a requirement to setup a tcp connection in SM59 from BI 7 to an external oracle database.
I am through with the first step of modifying the tnsnames.ora and now I am able to connect from OS level of BID server to this external oracle database O1.
But, I want to know what options do I need to use to setup a tcp/ip connection?
How should I register the program (if required)?
Can anyone please advise whats the best way to resolve this issue?
Thanks,
Antarpreet

Hi,

64 bit SAP to 32 bit External Oracle Database connectivity failing

Dear All,
We are trying to connect to an external Oracle database thru DBCON method. We are able to connect to Oracle server from our IDES server which is a 32 bit server, but when we are trying to connect our development server which is a 64 bit server, the connectivity is failing.
we copied the correct 64 bit *.lib file to the SAP server but still same result. We are getting the error message - Work Process restarted. Session terminated.
the Oracle server we are trying to connect is 32 bit, can this create some problem ?
kindly any one help us in this reagrd.
thanks in advance,
Saurabh.

Hi Eric,
thanks for the advice but I am a bit confused as where to execute that sqlplus command/query ?
in the Oracle server or from SAP and what does system/password@DEV means ??
can you elaborate on this please.
here i would like to add that we have connected to the external Oracle server using linked server approach of MS SQL (our SAP default database) and so our connectivity is happening till SQL level i.e. I am able to connect to the Oracle and query it using OpenQuery syntax. the problem is appearing when I am trying to connect from the ABAP level.
kindly suggest as to what can be the solution of this issue.
thanks
Saurabh.

How to connect from SAP on DB2 for i5/OS to external oracle database

Hello,
I managed to retrieve data from an external DB2 for i5/OS database using ABAP Native SQL running on another i5/OS server.
I also managed to retrieve data from an external oracle database using ABAP Native SQL running on another Windows/Oracle server.
Now i want to use ABAP Native SQL running on an i5/OS and retrieve data from an external Oracle database?
I suppose i need software to connect fron I5/OS to this oracle database like you need extra software when you want to connect to an i5/OS database if you are running SAP on Windows (read note 751451)
Does anybody know?
Thanks in advance
Bertil Rebergen

Hello Bertil,
to access an Oracle database from within an SAP system you'll need SAP's database interface library specific for Oracle plus the Oracle database client library utilized by SAP's database interface library. Both need to be available for the operating system your application server runs on, i.e. IBM i5/OS in your scenario.
Since the required Oracle database client software is not available for IBM i5/OS your SAP application servers on IBM i5/OS cannot access your Oracle database.
To overcome this limitation you would need to add at least one additional SAP application server based on Windows or Linux/Power to your current SAP system utilizing IBM DB2 for i5/OS. Since the required software libraries are available for these two operating systems you will be able to solve your problem this way.

Connect to a oracle database in another server

Hi people,
I have to read some tables on a oracle database in another server.
I know that I will have to use EXEC SQL command, but how can I make the connection between SAP and that oracle database.
I have seen something about the DBCON table, but I am not sure if I can connect on another server from ther and how...
Thanks...

Connecting to an oracle database questions

Our current solution to connecting to our oracle database uses the following code: ReportClientDocument clientDoc = new ReportClientDocument; java.sql.ResultSet rs = fetchResultSet(driverName, connectStr, userName, password, query); clientDoc.getDatabaseController().setDataSource(rs, tableName,tableName+"_ResultSet"); The code for subreports is very similar, but isn't necessary for my question. The problem w/ this approach is we have to define the SQL query and the table name in the JSP, which we shouldn't have to do considering both of these are stored in the report. Any changes to the reports' sql would then require someone to edit the jsp, which is just bad. I have been reading up on the ConnectionInfo and ConnectionInfos classes (nice naming convention btw) and the CrystalReportViewer.setDataBaseLogonInfos() method, and I believe a solution may lie here. The problem is the tutorials on using the ConnectionInfo class assume the database name is stored in the report, and we do not want to assume this. We are developing our reports to be used by our customers, who may name their database whatever they want so long as the tables inside it are what we specify. Because of this assumption, I have yet to find a good explanation of how to use the setAttributes(PropertyBag) method which is the only I have seen to specify the database name (within a connection string). I have examples of it, but nothing that defines the key/value pairs required in the PropertyBag to create a connection to an oracle database. Is there some documentation on the key/value pairs needed by the PropertyBag? Also, if there is another (easier) solution I am overlooking then please let me know, thanks.-Sam MorehouseHBF Group, Inc 

got it working, here's some sample code. <% try{ ReportClientDocument clientDoc = new ReportClientDocument(); clientDoc.open(reportName, 0); ConnectionInfos connInfos = new ConnectionInfos(); IConnectionInfo iConnInfo = new ConnectionInfo(); PropertyBag bag = new PropertyBag(); bag.put("Database Class Name",driverName); // "oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver" bag.put("Connection URL",connectStr); // "jdbc:oracle:thin:@dbName:1521:sid" PropertyBag pb = new PropertyBag(); pb.put(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_CRQE_LOGONPROPERTIES ,bag); pb.put(PropertyBagHelper.CONNINFO_DATABASE_DLL ,"crdb_jdbc.dll"); iConnInfo.setAttributes(bag); iConnInfo.setUserName(userName); iConnInfo.setPassword(password); iConnInfo.setAttributes(pb); connInfos.add(iConnInfo); session.setAttribute(reportName, clientDoc); session.setAttribute("reportSource", clientDoc.getReportSource()); //Setup viewer. Only going to include the relevant line, the rest can be found //elsewhere. CrystalReportViewer oCrystalReportViewer = new CrystalReportViewer(); oCrystalReportViewer.setDatabaseLogonInfos(connInfos); } catch(ReportSDKExceptionBase exc)%>

Unable to connect to my Oracle Database with Microsoft's ODBC for Oracle driver

I am unable to connect to my Oracle Database with Microsoft's ODBC for Oracle driver vers.2.573.4202.00 on a Win98 computer.
First, I create a "Net Service Name" in order for the ODBC Driver to find the Oracle server. I then created a System DSN in the ODBC Data Source Administrator and assigned the "Net Server Name" as the server in the "Microsoft ODBC for Oracle Setup". But when I test this DSN with Oracle's provided "Oracle ODBC 32Bit Test vers.2.5.3.1.0" I get an error:
SQLSTATE: NA000
Native Error Code:0
Driver Message:[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]
This error occurred on all three Win98 computers I have tried. It does however, seem to work fine on WinNT 4.0, and believe it or not, on the two Win95 computers I have tried.
Does anyone have any fixes, recomendations, or advice?
Thank you,
Eric Edwards

Why are yu not using the Oracle ODBC driver - these can be downloaded from OTN.
Have you set up a tnsnames.ora entry for the Oracle database you want to connect to? Does this name have a domain name added to it? Check %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin\tnsnames.ora for the service name. If it is a name of the form :
name.domain.subdomain
then you should try using this full name when configuring the ODBC data source.

Connecting to an Oracle database after clicking on a foi

Does anyone know how or have any examples on how to connect to an oracle database after clicking on a 'feature of interest' in MapViewer? I want to be able to click on a 'feature of interest' on the map, and have a list of records from an oracle table displayed using the identified key of the foi. I am able to create the feature of interest, and add the event listener for 'mouse click', but am unsure how to connect to the database at this point. I have been able to connect to the database in a different jsp, but not from here. Thank you.

1. Create a JSP page that does the database query. It should take the foi id as an input parameter.
2. In the foi mouse click listener, display the JSP page in iframe. The iframe can be placed outside the map or inside the info window. The function should do something like this.
function myClickListener(point, foi)
mapview.displayInfoWindow(point, "<iframe id='my_iframe_id' frameborder=0 width=300px height=400px />", 300, 400) ;
var myIframe = document.getElementById("my_iframe_id") ;
myIframe.src = "http://myhost/myjsp?key=" + foi.id ;
}

You have:
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@175.3.41.248/KNWAPROD";Example URLs I've seen/used are:
String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@//myhost:1521/orcl";
String URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:scott/tiger@//myhost:1521/orcl"In other words, I think you've munged your URL; you need some slashes and a port number (1521 is the default).

Connecting to an Oracle database using ASP

Hi
I am having problems connecting to an Oracle database using ASP. I am trying to do this for a school project the school's database server is running Oracle 9i. The repository is version 6. The web server I have access to only has ASP not ASP.net. What kind of connection string would I need to be able to connect to the database?

You do need to ensure that the Oracle client and Oracle server are compatible, but that is generally pretty easy to accomplish. Unless you are trying to cross more than one major release (i.e. 9.2 client to a 7.3.4 database), you're pretty safe there.
You could try downloading and installing the latest 8.1.7.x Oracle ODBC driver from OTN on the machine with the 8.1.7 Oracle client (I believe the last ODBC patchset was 8.1.7.10), but I don't have particular confidence that that will solve the problem. If it doesn't, we can do an ODBC trace to focus in on the issue, but installing a new driver is a much easier process, so that probably ought to be the first step.

Anyone have any ideas on what's wrong?

Why not use a type IV JDBC driver, available forfree download from Oracle? No
need for any DLL then.The standard Oracle driver comes with "oci" and
"thin" drivers.
Thin driver is 100% java.
oci driver uses the dlls.
What version of Oracle are you using? I am guessing
10?
Have you got Oracle Client installed on this machine?
(Stupid question I know)
What URL connection string are you using?
Does the "thin" driver work? ie url
"jdbc:oracle:thin:@[IP_ADDRESS]:[PORT]:[SID]"
Cheers,
evnafetsThere's another advantage of the thin driver: you don't have to have the client installed or TNS names defined for it to work.
