Trouble connecting from Perl (and perhaps other API) to 11gR2

1. I can connect to my instance via sqlplus
2. I can tnsping the SID I want to connect to
3. DB is alive
But my Perl script reports: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified (DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach)
Please help me diagnose the problem, been stuck on this for DAYS :(. I guess I've been going around in cluster of errors and I have no idea what I'm doing (I'm not a DBA).
TIA.

But my Perl script reports: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified (DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach)Error mean alias in connection string could not be resolved; typically not found in tnsnames.ora.
PERL utilizes TWO_TASK variable when it exists.
post connection string, content of tnsnames.ora & sqlnet.ora files

IGoogle (and perhaps others) broken after updating to 6.0.2 -- broken for ALL versions of Firefox now.

Hi folks,
Note: I've found a way to post images... here they are...
[http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/_Melk_/iGoogle_Firefox_broken2.png iGoogle Firefox Broken (same in version 5.x, 6.x & 7.x)]
[http://i1087.photobucket.com/albums/j480/_Melk_/iGoogle_IE9_Working.png iGoogle Firefox IE9 Working (was like this on FF too before last update)]
This is a good one so bear with me, I'll try to be as precise as I can.
I updated FF to 6.0.2 yesterday and since then iGoogle (and perhaps other pages.. not sure on this) does not display correctly anymore.
Most evident is the fact that the links "Advanced Search" and "Language Tools" shown (usually) on the right side of the search edit box, don't show up anymore.
Other changes are the graphics which are used by the gadgets. In IE9 & FF before the update, each gadget showed round corners, not anymore in FF after update. Also, if I try to change the theme, the buttons "Add This" don't show up in FF now.
Now, here's the kicker! I completely removed Firefox from my system, meaning uninstalled it using the remove settings as well. I also deleted my profile folder & the Mozilla Firefox folder after the uninstall. Then I reinstalled version FIVE (5.0) to see if I could revert to the why things were back then, and behold, same problem!! So now, I can't repair my firefox to work properly even if I return to older versions!? wow
Tried system restore to a few days ago, that didn't fix it.
Tried version 5.x, 6.x and even the beta 7.x (all from scratch after uninstalling and deleting the profile folder + program files(x86) Mozilla folder) --- still NO FIX! ack! ;)
Frankly, I'm at my wits end on this one. I usually can repair pretty much anything computer/OS related, but this one has me stumped.
Thanks in advance for ANY help provided.. much appreciated :)
/cheers
P.S. I also tried safe mode (took the broken FF picture in Safe Mode), but it has the same issues. In other words, I'm now officially unable to have ANY version of Firefox display iGoogle correctly anymore (5.x, 6.x, even beta 7.x). Be it bare bone, with or without addons, etc etc. All this caused by updating to 6.0.2 from 6.0.1.
Note that I've done tons of updates before without any issues. Also been using FF for the last 6+ years I think (been a while ;) )

Turns out that it's iGoogle Styling that has changed! Not a Firefox bug (although there are bugs in the new iGoogle).
The changes to my homepage (iGoogle) happened just as I was updating 6.0.2. So this led me to believe it was a Firefox bug, and since IE9 still shows the OLD style on iGoogle, it reinforced this belief.
After reading up on it on the Google forums, and chatting with a great tech support on Mozilla tech, I realized it wasn't Firefox. So you can dismiss this as a human error ;)
/cheers

Connecting from Office and Connecting from Remote

Hello
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between "Connecting from Office" and "Connecting from Remote" in the connection wizard ?
Thank you in advance

Hi Naldoo,
Into installation of SAP BPC you are specifying for application server 3 names:
Application Server Name
External Application Server Name
Virtual Name
The third one is used in case if you are using NLB.
The first one is the one using by "Connecting from Office"
The second one is used by "Connecting outside of office"
For this reason External name must be FQDN )Fully qualify name)
Application Server name can be short name
I hope this will help.

Two PDF's - 1 created from Illustrator and the other Acrobat. Same colour is different in both. Why?

Two PDF's - 1 created from Illustrator and the other Acrobat. Same colour is presented differently in both pdf documents. Why?

Hi - sorry pressed send too quickly....
I have two PDF documents that show a sample business card in PDF.
One was apparently created through illustrator and is the focument for the printers ... it is this document that shows a completely different colour to the one that is in the other PDF that was apparently created in Acrobat. Though designers assure me that they are exactly the same patenone and that it's the software interpretting it.
What i dont understand is why the colours would look different using the software from the same company....and why designers would put up with this as a basic layman it just looks plain wrong to me.

I have Powersuite from Uniblue, and the other segments work fine, but DriverScanner, though it does the scan, cannot connect to Uniblue to get the updates

Uniblue have advised checking proxy settings and firewall (plus uninstalling, reinstalling)but nothing gets it to work. Any ideas how to progress?
I'm running Microsoft Vista 32 on an Aspire laptop 5610Z.
I have the same proxy settings in Firefox (which I normally choose to use) and in Internet Explorer (which I find some software chooses to use behind my back!).
The firewall I've checked up on is that in Control Pannel (Panneau de configuration since I'm using a French machine). Should I be checking on firewalls elsewhere?
DriverScanner should be checking drivers against a list in Uniblue (I go to uniblue.com) then downloading the updates I need.
I used to know what my computer contained and how it worked, back in the 80s, but I have to admit I am now lost!

Someone recently noted a problem staying logged on the Huffington Post since it became connected with AOL. The workaround for that is to change your connection setting here:
orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Options > Advanced > Network
Click the "Settings" button and choose either "No Proxy" or "Use System Settings" option, and OK the change.
Not sure whether Washington Post could be affected by that same setting.
In reviewing your extensions, I'm puzzled that you have both DoNotTrackMe and SavvyConnect. The first one seems to aggressively block certain communications with websites (potentially affecting functionality) while the second one seems to report on your browsing habits (they better pay well is all I can say). Have you tried disabling both of those to see whether that has any effect?

Accessing connection from java and generated code

In JDeveloper 10.1.2.x I set up a connection and selected a stored procedure and generated java to call the stored proc. All good.
Now, in a web service application I want to call the method in that class that was generated.
So, the generated class has setConnectionContext(), getConnectionContext(), etc methods. I don't know how to use them. What is a ConnectionContext?
How do I provide the database connection information and call the method in the generated code that I need?
My Oracle AS server has a datasource configured that is the one I would like to use, but I don't know how to 'access' it via java in the context of this generated class.
I am deploying to Oracle AS 10.1.2,
thanks

Hi, well CSV is not currently an Excel file, it is a Comma Separated Values
file which can be read through Excel.
Now, if you wish to remove the header, I would purpose that you develop an
application that reads the CSV file, as it is mere text, and that it also reads
another file (lets call it confirguration.txt) in which you determine the pattern
you want to remove, then you just read your report and if a string line
matches the pattern you defined in the configuration.txt file, then you simply
erase it.
And if you keep interested in reading real Excel files (xls), I would
recommend you use POI-HSSF API from Apache.org
http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/hssf/index.html
Hope this helps, cya around.

One connection for Internet and the other for LAN

Hi: I am trying to setup this:
I have a : (Proliant DL380 G5) with Windows 2008 R2 Server .
This server has 4 NIC's.
In NIC #1 I would like to have all my Internet Traffic.
In NIC #2 I would like to have just my LAN Traffic.
Is there an easy way to accomplish that inside the server?
thanks

Yes Public IP address on NIC 1 and Local address in NIC 2
The reason is simple. I need to have some HUGE graphic files uploaded and downloaded from an internet site, on a regular basis, and I really do not want to mess around with the actual Internet Traffic I have on my Local Area Network. I do not
want to see any affected applications (outlook, access to my datacenter, etcc), by the size of the graphic files.
I know I could get more bandwidth from my actual ISP, but also need it to have another different WAN connection in case of Recovery...

The people having problems not connecting without AC power was from the last OSX update to 10.5.8, this problem has since been resolved with an Airport Client update.
Your profile shows that you are running 10.5.6... I would suggest updating you software to the latest 10.5.8 as this fixed some Airport issues.
You may want to unplug the router, let it set a minute the plug it back in.
Is your Powerbook still having these issues? How long has the powerbook been experiencing this problem?

How to automatically initiate a dial-up connection from Lookout and send an attachment

Folks:
I am trying to send (as an attachment) a spreadsheet file via email.
How can I programatically (from Lookout) initiate the default dial-up,
send the email (and attachment) and after success (btw, how do I
measure this?), ... then close the dial-up connection.
I am using 6.0.1 running on XP Pro (SP2).
Thanks!
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
Here are some documents that should get you started with setting up a dial-up modem in Lookout and sending an email:

Having trouble connecting from office to home

So I downloaded ARD last night finally to address the daily questions from the kids and wife (how do I do this, Can you install this program, etc.) Played around with it a bit last night at the house (FIOS Router to Time Machine Bridge Mode) and locally it was working like a champ!
So excitied to get to work today and try things out and no go. IT say no outbound trafic is blocked and sent him the list of ports for ARD
I have the iMac's IP address and when I search by ip and try and log in it fails with the user name and password that worked locally last night.
Any thoughts from the community.
Thanks
Robert

Here the skinny, or catch. Some times a internet connection, may block ARD. So even if you configure every thing right. It may still not work. And even if it dose, soon as you go to another ineternet connection, you may be find yourself blocked. Also FiOS may change your IP, this is a very common and frequent practis for many ISPs.
Have you considered using a program like logmein.com ? It's really easy to use, and it's desgined to do just what your trying to do.
If you want to troubleshoot ARD:
When you say you have the iMacs IP address, is that the IP address from, System Prefrences, Network, Active network connection? or is that the IP address you get when your on the iMac and you go to a website like whatismyipaddress.com?
On the computer your using at work, have you tried:
1) opening Apple Remote Desktop
2) click on "All Computers"
3) Menu bar, File Menu, Add Computer by IP Address
4) Put the IP Address you got from whatismyipaddress.com in the address field
5) the login info you've been using at home.
6) click the advanced arrow
7) uncheck verify user namd and password
8) uncheck apply defualt offline reporting policy
9) click add
10) select the added record
12) click control, see what you get.
if your still not able to connect, you could try setting your iMac as the DMZ on your FIOS router. (to rule out your firewall)
Also the computer need to be on, and awake for you to be able to connect. So ether make sure the kids have it awake. OR configure your mac to stay awake.
if youw ant to configure your mac to stay wake:
Apple Menu, system prefrences, Enegery Saver, unlock, Slide computer sleep to "never".
You'll probable want screen slider set to sleep after some amount of time so the screen isn't always on.

Adobe Connect - From Email and Aliases

Hi,
Recently my email reminders being sent from Adobe Connect have been from the email "Adobe Connect" [[email protected]]
This is despite using the default setting where the event creator email address is normally used, as well as setting up a new alias with the required 'From' email details and selecting this as the name / email address that the email should come from. This is continuously over-ridden by the "Adobe Connect" email address in the From field.
When the user clicks reply to any of these emails, the correct user email address is used in the reply so this only seems to be an issue with regards the From email address.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

This appears to be a bug/issue with Connect 9.3. Adobe Connect User Community

Terminal Server on 2008 SP2 NLB connects one host and the other wont allow anyone to logon.

Hi all,
I have a terminal server farm with two hosts as part of the session directory setup.
I use NLB to load balance the two servers.
The servers OS is Server 2008 Sp2.
Beforehand it worked perfectly, users would connect to the NLB hostname TermSerfarm and then be authenticated to either one of the servers in the farm.
However this seemed to break for no apparent reason. When a user logs onto the system
they use either RDP 6.0 or a Winterm, if the session is created on Farm member
1 then they log on and everything starts as normal, however if NLB determines
to send them to the second server in the farm then they get a message saying
terminal server is not available.
I had to remove the second farm server from both the session directory and the host from NLB, so there is just one server on the farm now.
NLB is set to Unicast.
Here are some of the things i checked -
DNS is okay as the Farm name resolves.
You can log into each of the servers by hostname if you want, just not to the second farm member via NLB.
Listener permissions are set up properly on the RDP setting of the Terminal Server configuration.
All IPs ping properly and the NICs are okay. NLB is set to Unicast.
Both farm members have a production NIC and an NLB NIC these are fine as well.
Event Viewer shows nothing at all, no system errors, no connection errors, so trying
to troubleshoot this is a nightmare!
Has this happened to anyone else? Any ideas where to start?
Any help is much Appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
When the Terminal Services Session Broker service starts, it creates the Session Directory Computers local group. By default, this group is not populated. You must choose the individual terminal servers or groups that you want to participate in the Terminal
Services Session Broker service, and then manually change group memberships to the Session Directory Computers group.
I would suggest you to check the configuration again for NLB with below mention link.

Trouble connecting to apps and iTune store.

Have new iPad. I can get connected to internet, but can't get on the App store. AFter lots of "thinking", message is " can't connect to iTunes store.

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.
