Still not able to CONNECT to Forms Developer

Yesterday I received gernerous help from forum participant Shay,
who walked me through the setup process (TNS Listener and
TNSNAMES.ora, etc.) but I still cannot connect. I'm missing
something fundamental.
I have MS Windows 2000 version of Oracle Personal Edition 8i
installed in directory ora81. The version of SQL*Plus that
came with it works fine--I can connect to the database, create,
drop, insert, etc.
Oracle Forms Developer 6 is installed in directory orant. I can open
the application but not connect. I tried to use Net8 Easy Config to
define a new entry in tnsnames.ora, but every attempt fails in the
GUI's test. (I told Shay that I got the test to work, but I was
mistaken.) Next I manually changed the the tnsnames.ora file in
orant\NET80\ADMIN\tnsnames.ora, which then shows up in the Config
tool but still fails the test to connect. How does this tnsnames.ora
file work with the tnsnames.ora file in ora81\network\ADMIN?
Meanwhile, Personal Edition is running fine. The tnslsnr is running.
I looked both in Services and, using Task Manager, in Processes.
Oracle.exe is also running. I ran lsnrctl status and got the following:
Connecting to (DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=IPC)
(KEY=EXTPROC1)))
...and then it gives status info, which indicates listener is on.
How do you get Forms Developer to connect to the database that is
clearly running?

Start the Oracle Net8 Easy Config from the start menu. Add a new service name:add the name of your database. Choose "Bequeath" as a type of protocole because you are connecting to a local database which is on your own machine. Change the default SID to the name of your database.
I think it will work .

For those who are getting annoyed, I have found a solution which requires you to create a new apple ID without using credit card information:
1. Go the app store
2. Hit cancel when it asks you to sign in (If it doesn't, continue to step 3)
3. Find a free app and try to download it
4. you to sign in option will appear, it will ask you if you want to use existing ID or create a new apple id. SELECT CREATE NEW APPLE ID
5. Follow the steps and when it gets to the stage it asks you for your card info, Choose 'None'
6. Full in all you name and address etc... And click next.
7. Verify your email and Enjoy downloading FREE apps
8. Say thank you as I do appreciate your love :)

Hello
Your DSL modem is your router. The /etc/defaultrouter file should have the ip address of the DSL modem's ethernet interface. (i.e 192.168.0.1 for example. your hosts ip address should be on the same subnet.)
One issue I ran into with my DSL modem was I could get to some sites through Mozilla/Firefox but not others. Even though I could do nslookups and ping these sites, (yahoo.com, google.com).
The solution was to bring up the browser and in the URL filed type "about:config" and change "network.dns.disableIPv6" from false to true. Then I could get to the site I couldn't before.
Hope this helps.

Not able to connect VS Web Developer Express through instant client 10

I just spent 10 hours attempting to connect Web Developer Express 2010 to an Oracle 10g database. In the end the solution was beyond simple, but with the existing threads there is a lot of talking around the problem. I’m posting this in case it might help someone else.
Obtain the Oracle instant client software that will work for your database. You will only need the basic package.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/features/instant-client/index-100365.html
Extract the contents to a temp location on your hard disk
Create a directory for the application – it could be anything, but here is what I used
C:\instantclient
Copy the extracted files into the directory you just created.
Right click on my computer and choose properties
Under advanced and environment variables you will need to add the directory you created above to the system variables PATH. You will need to create a new system variable called TNS_ADMIN and put the same c:\instantclient path in it.
Create the file tnsnames.ora under the c:\instantclient directory and put your customized entry in it. Below is an example.
tnsnams.ora file contents
<Alias for this tnsnames entry> =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <Your Oracle Server>)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = <Your database instance>)
It’s a good idea to restart your system after this installation.
In web developer express use the .NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB.
Here is the key piece of information!!
Under server name you need to use the alias from the tnsnames.ora file entry. If you do not do this it will not pick up the SERVICE_NAME parm and will give you some goofy error like:
ORA-12514: TNS:listener could not resolve SERVICE_NAME given in connect descriptor
or
ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of service requested in connect descriptor

Let's try a standalone Apple Mobile Device Support install. It still might not install, but fingers crossed any error messages will give us a better idea of the underlying cause of why it's not installing under normal conditions.
Download and save a copy of the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe) installer file to your hard drive:
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
Download and install the free trial version of WinRAR:
http://www.rarlab.com/
Right-click the iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64setup.exe), and select "Extract to iTunesSetup" (or "Extract to iTunes64Setup"). WinRAR will expand the contents of the file into a folder called "iTunesSetup" (or "iTunes64Setup").
Go into the folder and doubleclick the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi (or AppleMobileDeviceSupport64.msi) to do a standalone AMDS install.
(If it offers you the choice to remove or repair, choose "Remove", and if the uninstall goes through successfully, see if you can reinstall by doubleclicking the AppleMobileDeviceSupport.msi again.)
Does it install (or uninstall and then reinstall) properly for you? If so, can you get a normal iTunes install to go through properly now?
If instead you get an error message during the install (or uninstall), let us know what it says. (Precise text, please.)

This usually indicates you really have a 2nd gen unit. Check the model number on the back. A1288 is 2nd gen. A1318 is 3rd gen.

Connecting Oracle Forms Developer to E-Business Suite

Hi,
I have downloaded the Oracle DevSuite (10g) and BITools, I have managed to connect Oracle Discoverer to the db without any issues however, I am trying to connect Oracle Forms Developer 10g to our E-Business Suite 11i db and I keep getting the ORA- 01017 invalid username/password logon denied error message.
Should I be able to connect Oracle Forms Developer to the Oracle Business Suite databse without any issues or am I missing something,
any help would be greatly appreciated,
thanks
Chris

Hi Chris
First, You should know that the developer certified version for Oracle Apps development is 6i patch 18 (there's a new patch 19 also). On Discoverer, it's Ok to use 10G.
Now, on the connection issue, by the message it is related to the user/pass entered. If in Discoverer You are using oracle apps integration You may be using and application user and password, but that can be used to connect to the database.
Ask in Your project for apps password (may be apps or welcome12 if and on demand environment) for the development environment, or check if there's is a custom schema defined for development and get the user/pass for that one also. You may try with applsyspub/pub meanwhile to check connection but it's a restricted user.

Wrong forum - please repost in the SQL Developer forum, edit this post to include the link to the SQL Developer thread and then mark this as ANSWERED.
SQL Developer
>

In you post on the other forum include your 4 digit Oracle version and the version of SQL Developer that you are using.
Also provide the step by step details of how you are trying to create the new connection.
The error message is telling you that you are using a server or host name that does not exist.

Did you perhaps do a custom install? The DB software includes a version of sql developer and, by default, installs it in the sqldeveloper folder of the DB_HOME. Does that folder have sql developer in it?
I suggest that you NOT use the version of sql developer that ships with the database. That version will NOT be the current version.
Download the current version of SQL Developer, unzip it into a new folder and create a desktop icon for it.
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/downloads/index.html
The current version includes many, many bug fixes from that earlier DB version and you will have far fewer probems with it.

Saw this on another post.
Applecare Senior Advisor Txx Bxxx (I have his contact info in an email he just sent) just confirmed with me that the problem people are having with the App Store not loading is an apple issue with there servers, ITS NOT YOUR IPAD so don't go restoring it! It's not happening to everyone however but they are looking into it, its really hit or miss.
In the meantime ...........

Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
This works for some users. Not sure why.
Go to Settings>General>Date and Time> Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead by about a year.Then see if you can connect to the store.

Connection ... able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too

Hi folks, having this issue, with only one of my so many databases, what might be the reason and how to fix/correct this, please assist.
Able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too; sqlplus error: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
thanks in advance.

SQLDEVELOPER works since it use JDBC Thin & does not use tnsnames.ora
ORA-12154 ALWAYS only occurs on SQL Client & no SQL*Net packets ever leave client system
ORA-12154 [B]NEVER[/B] involves the listener, the database itself or anything on the DB Server.
ORA-12154 occurs when client requests a connection to some DB server system using some connection string.
TNS-03505 is thrown by tnsping & is same error as ORA-12154 thrown by sqlplus or others.
The lookup operation fails because the name provided can [B]NOT[/B] be resolved to any remote DB.
The analogous operation would be when you wanted to call somebody, but could not find their name in any phonebook.
The most frequent cause for the ORA-12154 error is when the connection alias can not be found in tnsnames.ora.
The lookup operation of the alias can be impacted by the contents of the sqlnet.ora file; specifically DOMAIN entry.
