SMTP update in Oracle Database UTL_SMTP

Hello All,
We migrated to a new mail server with different host name since then my applications using UTIL_SMTP function quit Working...!
I'm wondering where do we update the SMTP server settings in Oracle Database?
I already updated Init.ora file but it's not working. Any help would be greatly appreciated...!
Thanks
Rao

If you are using UTL_SMTP, not UTL_MAIL, then the name of the SMTP server would be specified in your code. The newer (and easier to use) UTL_MAIL package allows you to configure the SMTP server as an initialization parameter. If you look in the code, there should be a line where you call UTL_SMTP.OPEN_CONNECTION and pass in the SMTP server.

Configure SMTP protocol in Oracle Database

HI
What should I do to configure Database to send email using utl_mail package
note : i use 3g to connect to internet
Thanks in advance

You have a problem here. See the definition that you created for the SMTP_OUT_SERVER. You prepended smtp. and appended .com onto what appears to me to be a static IP address. Strip off the stmp. and .com so you have the following:
ALTER SYSTEM SET smtp_out_server='127.0.0.1' SCOPE=SPFILE;which by the way is the loopback address and probably could be replaced with the value 'localhost' instead.
Once you get the smtp_out_server string correct things should start working for you.

SMTP service on in oracle database to send mail directly from oracle databa

I want to send mail from my oracle database.
I have followed the steps below:
1> Run utlmail.sql & prvtmail.plb
2>set smtp_out_server parameter
3>To send mail, execute utl_mail.send(sender=>'',recipients=>'',message=>'ABC');
My concept is to provide smtp/mail server ip & port in smtp_out_server parameter's value.
But One person said that oracle database server can make itself as a smtp server.So that we can assign database server ip & port in smtp_out_server parameter's value.We have to just on the smtp service in oracle database itself.There is no requirement of smtp/mail server ip & port.Is it true?How can we do that?
In google to Add an SMTP Service,the document said in the 1st line that on the Services tab on the left, select a Process tree node (for example, the default Oracle Enterprise Gateway).
I am sorry to say that I did not find that.Anyone can help me please?
Please reply anyone.

Hi Richa:
As you mentioned, it has been working for the last six moneth. Was there any changes before it stopped working?
Also you mentioned you were able to recieve mails from Domain user. Could you please get the Internet Headers: Open a mail from domain sender -> file ->property -> Internet Headers, send it with a mail to me:[email protected]
Meanwhile, as this is a Office 365 related issue, it is better to post your quesetion in

What is the best way to put LabVIEW DSC data into an Oracle database?

I have been collecting data using LabVIEW DSC 7.0 for several years and have always accessed the data from the Citadel database via the Historical Data Viewer. I would now like to begin putting this data into an Oracle database. My company stores all their data in Oracle and it would provide me all the benefits of their existing infrastructure such as automated backups, data mining tools, etc.
My initial thought is to use "Read Trace.vi" in LabVIEW to pull historical data from the citadel database at regular intervals (e.g. 1 minute) and insert this data into Oracle via ODBC. In this way, I do not need to track the value changes in order to know when to write to Oracle. I also considered replicating the citadel database using some other method, but I recall that the tables used by citadel are somewhat complicated. I only need a simple table with columns for channel, timestamp, and data. The "Read Trace.vi" will provide me data in this format.
I do not need to update the Oracle database in real time, a few minute delay is acceptable. If anyone has a better idea or additional insight please let me know. Thanks.

In terms of connectivity, you want to use ADO, not ODBC. Beyond that, it all depends on the structure of the data and what you are going to want to do with it. This is a very big question that you need to be getting some in-depth assistance.

PL/SQL code can only create and use tcp client sockets via UTL_TCP. A tcp server socket is needed for a SMTP server.
The Oracle database also does not listen and accept incoming client tcp connections - the Oracle Listener does that (separate process/layer).
The Oracle database instance registers the services it has available with the Listener. There are 3 basic type of services that the instance will register:
- dedicated services (supporting Oracle client connections)
- dispatchers for shared services (supporting Oracle client connections)
- http/ftp services (supporting XMLDB WebDav, WebService and EPG servlets access for web based clients)
There is no support for a SMTP service.
You can install SMTP server s/w on the same platform as the Oracle server s/w. You may even (via Oracle Collaboration services I think) use the Oracle database for mail drops and mail boxes (storage). But I have not yet seen an actual SMTP server running as PL/SQL or Java code inside a database instance as a database server process.

Difference in select for update of - in Oracle Database 10g and 11g

Hi, I found out that Oracle Database 10g and 11g treat the following PL/SQL block differently (I am using scott schema for convenience):
DECLARE
  v_ename bonus.ename%TYPE;
BEGIN
  SELECT b.ename
    INTO v_ename
    FROM bonus b
    JOIN emp e ON b.ename = e.ename
    JOIN dept d ON d.deptno = e.deptno
   WHERE b.ename = 'Scott'
     FOR UPDATE OF b.ename;
END;
/While in 10g (10.2) this code ends successfully (well NO_DATA_FOUND exception is raised but that is expected), in 11g (11.2) it raises exception "column ambiguously defined". And that is definitely not expected. It seems like it does not take into account table alias because I found out that when I change the column in FOR UPDATE OF e.empno (also does not work) to e.mgr (which is unique) it starts working. So is this some error in 11g? Any thoughts?

It seems that my question was answered here - http://stackoverflow.com/questions/2736426/difference-in-select-for-update-of-in-oracle-database-10g-and-11g

The behaviour seems like it really is a bug and can be avoided using non-ANSI syntax. (It makes me wonder why Oracle maintains two query languages while dumb me thinks that this is just a preprocessor matter and query engine could be the same).

EM12c Oracle Database Plug-In 12.1.0.7 update now shows 10g listener as down when it's not

EM 12.1.0.4 with Oracle Database Plug-in 12.1.0.7
Monitored database and listener: 10.2.0.4
Our EM12c monitors 12.1,11.2 and 10.2 databases and listeners. All monitored targets are up and running.
I updated Oracle Database Plug-in from 12.1.0.6 to 12.1.0.7 and now the only 10g listener that I have shows as down.
The listener on the server is up and running.
The monitoring configuration is right.
I removed this target and re-added it, but it came back as down.
It's a little disconcerting to have a listener show as down since it's a production box, but nothing I do corrects the problem.
Any insights or suggestions are appreciated.
Sherrie

Hi Sherrie,
In most cases we have this issue due to monitoring configuration , I know you mentioned that you have checked on it but still I would recommend to just re-confirm on below steps
1. Go to
    EM Console -> Targets -> Listener -> Listener Home page -> Target Setup -> Monitoring Configuration
2. Get the details
      Listener Name
      Listener.ora Directory
      Machine Name
      Oracle Home
      TCP Port Numbe
3. Go to the server where this listener is running
   Check to see if the listener is up
       ps -ef | grep tns
4. Next run
       $ORACLE_HOME/bin/lsnrctl status
   From this outpuy verify details in (1)
      Listener Name   <======= Alias
      Listener.ora Directory <=== Listener Parameter File ie the directory
      Machine Name <======= HOST=
      Oracle Home<========== This is where tnslsnr is started from
      TCP Port Number <====== PORT=
5. Makes sure that all the details matches in (4) and (2)
If above is fine then I would recommend to go through the troubleshooting steps as per below doc , they are valid for listener status down too and should give a further insight on the root cause of the issue
Troubleshooting the 'Pending' status for a Listener Target in Enterprise Manager 12c Cloud Control (Doc ID 1546576.1)

Update MRP Exception Messages...in Oracle Database

Hi All,
I am working on MRP Exception Messages.
I am using the BAPI_MATERIAL_MRP_LIST for my MRP Messages.
For the above BAPI The Inputs are 1.Material Number 2. Plant.
I have the Plant and Material numbers (57,000 i inserted using BAPI_MATERIAL_GETLIST) Tables With Data in my Oracle Database.
I would like to update the MRP Messages Table in in my Oracle Database.
My logic is I took the plant numbers and put into the repeater and the same Material too. I am giving linking the both to BAPI inputs,material and Plant. Is it right what I am going?
Can you give some ideas how to do it.
Thanks
R M

I think this is a duplicate of your other MRP Exception Message. Please close this one since the other one is receiving all the responses.
Thanks,
Mike

Oracle database 9.2.0.4 Critical Patch Update

Hi,
is oracle database 9.2.0.4 running on Windows still supported for critical patch updates? I went through the supported list in Critical Patch Update October 2006 but there was no reference to Oracle database 9.2.0.4. Oracle Premier Support for Oracle Database 9.2 expires in July 2007 - shouldn't this be included?
Thanks

So why aren't versions 9.2.0.1/2/3/4 included in the
Critical Patch Update?9.2.0.5 is not listed either, neither were they listed in the July 2006 CPU.
My guess is that the versions no longer fall under one of the items I listed earlier. You can file an SR with Oracle to get the exact reason.

Useing a Idoc an Oracle database Can be update useing JDBC Adapter

Hi Guys,
Can you help me on the above topic..
Regd's
Raj

Hi Raj,
You can use the Idoc Adapter on the sender side and JDBC on the reciever side. After you have configured your scenario, you should be able to write data into the oracle database.
For the strucutre of your Datatype for insertion , just check this link,
http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/7e/5df96381ec72468a00815dd80f8b63/content.htm
To access any Database from XI, you will have to install the corresponding Driver on your XI server.

Or on the JDBC end you can write a stored procedure to make your data update more efficient.
Go through this blog for stored procedures.

Oracle Linux Patching/Updates Impact on Oracle Database

I have several questions regarding Oracle Linux patching and its impact on Oracle Database.
3 node Cluster
Operating System: Oracle Linux Release 5 update 2
Kernel: 2.6.18-92.1.22.0.1.el5 x86_64 GNU/Linux
Grid Infrastructure: Oracle Grid Infrastructure 11g Release 2 (11.2.0.2)
Database: Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Enterprise Edition (11.2.0.2) with RAC option
ASM with ASMLib is being used for Data and FRA.
*1)* Given your at Oracle Linux Release 5 update 2, will applying only Security Patches require any changes to ASMLib, Oracle Grid Infrastructure and/or Oracle Database (software binaries, configuration etc.)?
*2)* Given your at Oracle Linux Release 5 update 2, will applying Bug Fixes and Security Patches to Oracle Linux 5 update 2 require any changes to ASMLib, Oracle Grid Infrastructure and/or Oracle Database (software binaries, configuration etc.)?
*3)* Given your updating from Oracle Linux Release 5 update 2 to Oracle Linux Release 5 update 8, will this require any changes to ASMLib, Oracle Grid Infrastructure and/or Oracle Database (software binaries, configuration etc.)?
I would most whole heartedly appreciate if someone could answer the specific questions asked, inline if possible. Our System Administrator is preparing to perform some patching and as the DBA I'd like to be certain what changes I need to prepare for? I also have a single instance database setup with Oracle Restart. I don't know if this impacts the answers above.
Thanks in advance.

How do you plan to apply Oracle Linux security patches? As far as I'm aware the yum security plug-in does not work with the Oracle public yum repository and there is no really feasible way to automate and determine security related patches only, unless you setup Oracle Enterprise Manager Grid Control (11g) or Cloud (12c) and have a subscription to Oracle ULN.
If you upgrade your Oracle Linux to the latest available version using the public yum repository, all patches, including errata will be applied. You cannot apply patches and stay on a specific release version unless you have a subscription and appropriate yum repository access.
As far as I'm aware there are no changes required to your Oracle database or ASM setup and configuration when updating the OS, provided the version of the Oracle database is supported for the specific OS version (ASM features like ADVM/ACFS are kernel version depending). Upgrading from one major release to another, such as upgrading Oracle Linux 5 to Oracle Linux 6 is not supported and will require upgrading the Oracle Database to 11.2.0.3. You can check the Oracle database certification matrix to determine which Oracle database release version is required for which OS version http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E11882_01/relnotes.112/e23558/toc.htm
The relinking of Oracle Database binaries is a common practice when updating the OS. I do not think it is necessary under Linux. Oracle binaries are typically standalone applications, or use Oracle provided libraries, or in some cases use OS shared libraries, which does not require relinking of Oracle binaries. Upgrading the Oracle database software of course requires relinking.
