Unable to connect to database from D2K

Hi,
GoodDay, This is Ramesh. I have loaded both Oracle 9i & D2K in my PC. But i am getting some error message while trying to connect to database from d2k forms. I entered Usename, Password. The message is..
ORA-12203: TNS: Unable to connect to destination
The second time i entered both Username, Password & Database.
User Name: Scott
Passwors : tiger
Database: ORCL9i (SID name)
please let me know where i am lacking..?
Regards,
Ramesh.

Do you connect when you set username , passwd , database....????
If you can via another tool , for example sql*plus then simply , copy the particular setting tns alias , you use to connect to this db, from [ORACLE_HOME]\network\admin\tnesanames.ora and paste it to [DEV2000_HOME]\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
Greetings,
Sim

Unable to connect to database from Unifier9.1 configurator

After installing Unifier on Windows 2008 R2 64bit server , invoked Unifier Configurator while configuring database, i am unable to connect to oracle 11g database and connection test failed.
I have ensure database, listner, telnet, ping are working fine from Unifier server to database server.
Please let me know any pre-requisites required to make connection successful. I have invoked Configurator as Administrator as stated in installation doc.

Hi Sachin,
Thanks for the reply. I have created the user and granted connect,resource,create view roles as suggested in installation doc.
do we need Oracle client software installed on Unifier system? i can say that i can telnet and ping the server on 1521 port.

Unable to connect to database from forms6i

i have installed form61 and PO8i on my machine and was working perfectly till yesterday.
but today i was able to log into the database but not through the forms.it give an ORA-12203unable to connect to the destination.
Please help in this issue.
I have installed a VC++ compiler today, will that be a problem for this issue...
Thanks in advance
VJ

Since you had installed f6i and o8i in the same m/c so obviously with different homes. It had been earlier working fine with both forms and oracle. And now you can connect from oracle db, But not forms. So the main reason can be that the listener is not started. So check if it is running. If not start the listener and check. If it works fine, if not then check if the tnsnames.ora file is there at the correct location in forms home dirctory. if yes then see, if the network protocal, address and port addresses in listener.ora in oracle home and tnsnames.ora entries in forms home net8 are correct. If not make the correct entries.
Check this, as there shall be a problem with it only as it was working earlier otherwise there can be an error in the network protocols. See if it helps

Did you literally go into your tns file and put all of your specific envirnmental specifications?
Is the listener up and running?
Are you using the right alias?
Hope this helps.

Unable to Connect to Database (after server has been re-started)

Hi, I use Essbase Admin Services 7.1.3 and the server was not responding, therefore our IT guys re-started it. Since then I am unable to connect to one of the applications. I have tried to start/Stop the application but it just says "Application did not start". There are 6 databases in this application altogether (3 data and 2 Currency). The application has been there for about 3 years (it holds historic sales data) and there has never been any problems with it. When I tried to Start the application, in the message panel at the bottom it says "Error: 1013015 Unable to Connect to Database (2003)". It's as if there is a problem with this 2003 database but the 2002 and 2004 database are OK. Has anyone ever had this problem and knows how to rectify it?? Thanks in advance. Sarah

It may be that the server restart corrupted the database. Go into database properties and uncheck the box start database with application and then try to restart the application. You can try database validation, or simply reload the database from backup. But you can get the application up and the rest of the databases up by decoupling the database restart from the application start. There will be a .xcp log file in your application directory (and possibly your database directory.) These might help Hyperion Support in identifying the cause of the problem. But the quickest solution would be to reload the database from backup. The serer and application logs can also provide help in identifying the problem. One of the keys is to determine why the server is not responding before restarting the server. It may be that a single application is the source of problem. Typical causes are unscheduled free space restructures, application loads of large databases, and an occasional rogue process. Rather than rebooting the entire box, or even restarting the Essbase server, the safest approach is to only kill the job that is soaking up the cpu cycles, causing the server to be unresponsive. This requires identifying the offending process (esssvr.exe) and killingit. Often that restores the rest of the system to operations, giving you time to focus onthe offending application. You learn thses things when you are pushing the server to its limits (or beyond). If it happens often, you need to do a serious performance audit of teh server and determine whether you need more power and/or memory. And in any case, you are less likely to encounter this sort of problem in the future if you try to limit applications to a single database. This will allow a better utilization of system resources. And also, it's a good idea to shut down applications that you are not going to be using for a while. Every loaded app takes system resources whether or not it is doing anything. So review your list of apps that start on startup and consider unloading apps after completing batch processing. Sorry about the long lecture, but I speak from somewhat painful experience. I hope that this will help you.

Problem in connecting to database from webdynpro for java

Hi
I have a problem in connecting to database from webdynpro application
I am using oracle 10 express edition as database and was able to connect to database from a java application.But was unable to connect from a webdynpro for java.
I guess webdynpro for java uses open sql instead of vendor sql(I looked in the visual admin ,DB is using open sql) so unable to connect to database.Am i right.?
Do i need to make any settings in the visual admin to make it work?
How to solve this problem.Please give me pointers
Thanks
Bala

Hi,
For connecting to Oracle, either you can use the normal JDBC connectivty code directly which is given below :
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@Oracle_server_ip:Oracle port:SID of the Database","user_name","password");
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("your query");
In case you want to fetch data through ejbs, these are the steps to be followed :
1) Open the J2EE perspective
2) Create an EJB Module project
3) Right click on ejbModule, create a new EJB (select your EJB type)
4) While creating the ejb itself, you can add business methods by clicking Next in the UI. Another option is after creating the ejb, write the method in the bean, then select the method from ejb-jar.xml -> <bean name> ->method. Right click and select propogate to local & remote.
5) Double click on ejb-j2ee-engine.xml. select your bean and specify a Jndi name for eg: MyJndi.
6) Right click on the EJB project and add classes12.zip file (provided by Oracle) to its build path. (under libraries tab). Also check the same file under Order & Export.
7) Create an Enterprise Application project.
8) Right click on the EJB module project and select add to EAR project, then select the created EAR project.
9) Right click on the EJB project, select Build EJB Archive
10) Right click on the EAR project, select Build Application Archive
11) Open the WebDynpro perspective, open a new project, right click on the project ->properties. Do the following configurations :-
Java Build path - select the EJB project from projects , check the selected project under Order & Export
Project references select the EAR project
WebDynpro references select sharing references tab, click add & make an entry as : <vendor>/<EAR project name without .ear extension>
You can find the vendor name under application-j2ee-engine.xml file of the EAR project. By default it is sap.com. So if my EAR projects name is ABC, my entry would look like sap.com/ABC
12) Now the configurations are over and the EJB can be invoked by writing the client code inside the webdynpro component. Like:
InitialContext context = new InitialContext();
Object obj = context.lookup("MyJndi");
MyEJBHome home = MyEJBHome)PortableRemoteObject.narrow(obj,MyEJBHome.class);
MyEJB mybean = home.create();
int a = 0;
a= mybean.add(10,15);
wdContext.currentContextElement().setSum(a);
where MyEJB is my EJB name and MyJndi is my JNDI name
To connect to Oracle , you can write the usual Java code (given below) as a business methos of the ejb (similar to add() method in the example). And access it like mybean.<businessMethodName>().
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:oracle:thin:@Oracle_server_ip:Oracle port:SID of the Database","user_name","password");
Statement stmt = conn.createStatement();
ResultSet rs = stmt.executeQuery("your query");

Upgrade SBO-COMMOM SQL - unable to connect to database

Dear Experts,
I'm trying to upgarde from SAP 2007 A PL-42 to PL-49.
I have currently got SQL2000 (for legend system) running under the instance name SERVER and i have installed SQL2005 (SAP uses this) with the instance name SERVER\SQL2005, both running on the same machine called SERVER.
When i try to upgrade the SBO-COMMON database, it installs the DI and reaches a point where it asks for:-
Database Server:-              (I input SERVER\SQL2005)
Database Name:-              (SBO-COMMON)
User Name:-                     (sa)
Password:-                      (password)
When i click the NEXT button, i get the error "unable to connect to database; verify that database TCP/IP port serice is started."
I have verified that the TCP/IP ie enabled,and running on port 1433.
Addidtional Information:
During installation, it tries to access c:\windows\system32\sqljdbc_auth.dll file, when i click the NEXT button, just before i get the TCP/IP error.
Would highly appreciate the help.
Regards,
Asif

Unable to connect to database which uses custom NLS charset

Hello,
I have custom character set installed on my database. I'm trying to connect to DB using OCI driver. On the client machine (Linux), I have Oracle 10g Release 2 installed. Custom character set is installed on the client side too and SQL*Plus connection works fine. Both NLS_LANG and ORA_NLS10 environment variables are set correctly.
When I'm trying to connect via JDBC, I'm getting the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: Character Set Not Supported !!
 at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
 at oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:146)

 at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:525)
 at java.sql.DriverManager.getConnection(DriverManager.java:171)
and so on...
The same code works fine on my computer (I have 9i client here). As I have read from various sources across the internet, Oracle 10g JDBC driver uses own character set conversation methods, encoded in orai18n.jar, it does not pay attention to NLS_LANG, etc.
So, my question is: do I need to create own character set for JDBC? And if so, is there a chance to generate it from existing .nlt files or I need to build them from scratch?

Sorry, I think it will be better if I move this post to "Globalization Support" forum : Unable to connect to database which uses custom NLS charset

Error Message: Unable to connect to Database Contact IT Dept.

Hi Everyone, there is a problem in login.
The software is working fine from long time,
Today all of a sudden while I logged into the software [which was created using oracle/reports 6i] (Version - Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.2.0.1.0 - Production)],
I got the error saying Unable to connect to Database Contact IT Dept.
The same software is working fine in all the systems.
In only 1 system, that error message is displayed.
Thank You.

From this message, it is understood that your database connectivity credentials is not correct.
What makes you think that ? Do you know the Oracle error that caused the message ? (which is evidently generated by the application)
Recently did you changed any password - which may be hardcoded on form.
On one client only ?

Unable to connect to database; verify that database TCP/IP port service is

Hi i have a problem with a few servers when i'm trying to upgrade from SAP 2007 SP00 PL47 to SAP 2007 SP1 PL06, i run the upgrade for SBO-COMMON and gives me the message Unable to connect to database; verify that database TCP/IP port service is started, and i don't know why, i hope you can help me.
Julieta

Hi,
Ensure that the connection to the database is configured properly.
1. Check that the TCP/IP port is not being blocked by a Firewall.
2. Set the Server's Remote Connection to accept TCP/IP connections.
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -> Configuration Tools -> SQL Server Surface Area Configuration -> Server Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections -> MSSQLSERVER -> Database Engine -> Remote Connections
Restart the 'SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER)', and run the upgrade again.
Hope this will resolve your issue !
