Actually....iam opening the form from windows xp.Means what? Are u opening in the browser or in the Forms Builder?
----in the browser
when i create a new form in windows xp using developer suite (i have installed developer suite) i am able to connect the database. i checked the tnsping in server its working.....
This means developer suite has been configured for database.---i configured the developer suite(172.16.7.123) to 9idb(172.16.7.2)
but i am not able to open the form.What error are u getting when u open the form?
---when i open the form in the browser (http://appsworld.ncc.com:7778/forms/frmservlet?config=test)
its asking me the username,password,database.
i gave username=ncc password=nccpwd database=test
In the db server's tnsnames.ora...i have given the db details under test.
if i do "tnsping test" the result is ok. but when i open the form in the browser im getting the ora-12514 error after giving the above said details of username.
But....when i give the username,password and database of infrastructure i.e.,
username=system password=oradba database=orcl then the form is opening in the browser.

Not able to access the 10g RAC DB

Hi All,
I have installed 10G RAC on WIN2K box with 2 nodes. The installation was fine. I created a database with name "test". It created 2 instances "test1 on node1" and "test2 on node2". Now if i am trying to connect to "test", it fails. but if i use "test1" i am able to connect. How does the failover come into picture when i am using the instance "test1" which is running on node1 and it(node1) goes down. I am new to these, please help me.
Thanks in advance
Regards
Kavitha

All connections should be using the failover TNS entry which should look something like this in your tnsnames.ora file:
TEST=
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test1-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521))
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test2-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521))
(CONNECT_DATA=
(SERVICE_NAME=TEST)
When you do a tnsping of the service, you should see the failover configuration, similar to:
tnsping TEST
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION= (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test1-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521)) (ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=test2-vip.us.oracle.com)(PORT=1521)) (CONNECT_DATA= (SERVICE_NAME=TEST)))
There are many different configurations for RAC failover and TAF. This is a basic example.

Help!? wierd sqlnet problem with linux 8.0.5

I installed Oracle for Linux 8.0.5 on RHL 6.0
and also applied the glibc patches. Database
is up and running... and my pc clients can connect
to the database...
So my problem is:
I can connect to the local linux database just fine but,
I'm having problems using sqlplus to connect to another database.
For example, suppose I am in sqlplus and do:
connect scott/[email protected]
(assume prod.world is a 7.3.4 database on a separate machine and
the listener and everything is fine)
I get: ORA-01017:invalid username/password; logon denied
The username/password is valid because...
If I use svrmgrl to connect to prod.world:
and do a connect scott/[email protected]
It connects!
tnsping test.world and prod.world and I get ok... so I know that
the /network/admin/tnsnames.ora is okay... especially since it
connects with svrmgrl...!?
Any ideas anyone???
Thanks in advance...

Phil,
I would be suspicious of the svrmgrl connect , I have tested
this myself and found that it ignores the "@sqlnet-alias" string
completely ! I suspect that the user scott exists in both the
local and remote databases and that remote scott has a different
passwd from the local scott !
One way to convince yourself of this :
1 create a user in the remore database
2 ensure that there is no user of the same name in the local
database
3 try your test again with this user
Cheers

Unable to select from Oracle to SQL Server

Hi group,
I am having some issues while trying to select a SQL Server table from Oracle.
Oracle version is 10.2.0.4 64 bits on Solaris 64 bits too, this database connects to Oracle Client (with dg4odbc) on Windows 64 bits installation (Oracle Cient version is 11.2.0.1), and finally SQL Server is running right on a Windows 2000 server on 32 bits.
When I try to select the SQL Server table from Oracle, I am getting the next error message:
SQL> select * from "interfaceinventarios"@TEST;
select * from "interfaceinventarios"@TEST
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent
Unable to retrieve text of NETWORK/NCR message 65535
ORA-02063: preceding 2 lines from TEST
tnsping TEST is working well.
On the Windows Server (64 bits) I used: C:\Windows\System32\odbcad.exe executable to create the datasource.
Any help or advice will be really appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Kind regards,
Francisco

Hi,
If your server is of 64 bit then the oracle client needs to be 64 bit.

The command completed successfully
7) Then in the tnsnames.ora file I added the following entry:
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(PROTOCOL = IPC)
(KEY = EXTPROC1521)
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = PLSExtProc)
(PRESENTATION = RO)
test =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SID = test)
(HS = OK)
When i tnsping test, it works.
8) I edit the .bash_profile file for Oracle
ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE were already pointing to the correct destination, I added:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.1.0/db_1/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/hs/lib:/usr/lib64:/usr/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
ODBCINI=/etc/odbc.ini
export ODBCINI
ODBCINSTINI=/etc/odbc.ini
export ODBCINSTINI
ODBCSYSINI=/etc
export ODBCSYSINI
9) Then i configured $ORACLE_HOME/hs/admin/inithsodbc.ora
And Modified these lines:
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = test
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = ON
HS_FDS_TRACE_FILE_NAME = odbc_test.log
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = 4
HS_FDS_SHAREABLE_NAME = /usr/lib64/libodbc.so
HS_FDS_SUPPORT_STATISCTICS = FALSE
HS_LANGUAGE = AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE8ISO8859P1
set ODBCINI = /etc/odbc.ini
10) Then i created a database link with the following command:
Create public database link test connect to test identified by test using ‘test’;
I tried username and password in database link with double quotes also.
11) Now Finally when I try to select records from mysql table:
select count(*) from "table"@"test"; -- I have tried with and without double quotes
I get the following error:
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
ORA-02063: preceding line from TEST
How to get through this error, and how to check logs for HS?
Your help is required.

Hi,
In your listener.ora for the DG4ODBC entry you had -
(ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /usr/local/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/lib)
but this should also include the path for the driver manager directory which in your case is /usr/lib64 so could you add this ?
The error -
Failed to load ODBC library symbol: /usr/lib64/libmyodbc3.so(SQLSetDescRec)
indicates the /usr/lib64 directory cannot be accessed.
The entry should then look like -
(SID_DESC =
<space>(PROGRAM = dg4odbc)
<space>(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1)
<space>(SID_NAME = test)
<space>(ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /usr/local/lib:/usr/lib64:/u01/app/oracle/product/11.2.0/dbhome_1/lib)
<space>)
The spaces may have bene lost when posting but there should be at least one space in the file as indicated by the <space>.
After making the change then stop and start the listener.
If you still have problems then please post again the current versions of the configuration files, the full errors shown in SQLPLUS for a select and the output from a debug trace showing the errors.
The information shows you are using the 3.51 MySQL ODBC driver so could you also try with the latest version of the 5.1 driver and see if you have the same problem ?

Mike

anyone can help?

use format command with backup.
eg:-
backup as compressed backupset database format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T';
if it is archivelog mode then
backup as compressed backupset database format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T' plus archivelog format '/u01/db/backup/%d_%I_%s_%T';
then copy the backup to the auxiliary instance server.
then try again the duplicate command.

Netasst on Redhat 6.1

I am a beginner. I have a problem with netasst on oracle8.1.5i for linux(Redhat6.1).
After running netasst,I followed these step:
1.Create Listener
listener name : TEST
2.Add address
Displayed: Protocol: TCP/IP
HOST: future_linux.gdpita
PORT: 1521
3.Create "Net Service Names"
a.Net Sevice Name: TestNSN
b.select "TCP/IP(internet Protocol)"
c.HOST NAME: 12.104.72.21 --(My computer's IP)
Port Number: 1521
d.Oracle8i Release 8.1 Service Name: v8i815
-- (I have created the oracle database whose global database name is "future" and System Identifier(SID) is "v8i815".
e: test
-----ERROR ( The Program exit )!
Displayed Information:
" Thread Alarm Q:
sys_thread_t 0x4147ae0c [Timeout in 240 ms]
sys_thread_t 0x419fde0c [Timeout in 240 ms] "
pls. help me and tell me why and the advice .

My netasst also crashes when I try to test.
So, I don't test at all. Just click the
Finish button.
Then at the prompt you can do the following
to make sure that your connection is setup
and working:
tnsping TEST
If you get an OK message then everything is fine. Make sure the database instance is up
and running before you do that.

Configuring hetrogeneous services in Oracle 10g database

Hello all,
Oracle database 10.2.0.4
Windows XP
I am trying to configure the Oracle hetrogeneous services in Oracle database to transfer data from SQL server database.
For eg:
I have *"A"* machine and *"B"* machine. SQL server database is in *"A"* machine and Oracle database is in *"B"* machine.
I have configured the Hetrogeneous services in Oracle (machine B) database as per the document
http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/10893_3442661_1/Making-a-Connection-from-Oracle-to-SQL-Server.htm
I have done the same things..
After configuring i restarted the listener and it was ok.. but when i tnsping its giving No listener error.
Whether i need to configure anything in the SQL server database side ?
Please advice...
TIA,

Hello Sir,
Thank you for your reply..
