Unable to connect to oracle 8i

Hi there,
I have been trying to connect to oracle 8i.
The database is in another workstation in the network.
The sqlexception i as follows:
java.sql.SQLException: Io exception: Connection refused(DESCRIPTION=(TMP=)(VSNNU
M=135294976)(ERR=12505)(ERROR_STACK=(ERROR=(CODE=12505)(EMFI=4))))
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java:168)
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java:210)
at oracle.jdbc.dbaccess.DBError.throwSqlException(DBError.java:323)
at oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection.<init>(OracleConnection.java:260)
I have browse through the forum. There are people who encounter the same error as me. However, none of the replies provided a workable solution.
Should anyone happen to have any idea, what the error is about, pls help me. Thanks in advance.

Check to make sure that the SID specified is correct.
The SIDs that are currently registered with the listener can be obtained by
typing "LSNRCTL SERVICES ". These SIDs correspond to
SID_NAMEs in TNSNAMES.ORA, or db_names in INIT.ORA.
*Comment: This error will be returned if the database instance has not
registered with the listener; the instance may need to be started.

  • Unable to connect to oracle driver

    I am unable to connect to oracle driver. My code is as follows --
    try {
    Class.forName("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver").newInstance();
    } catch (ClassNotFoundException e) {
    System.out.println("Can't find class oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");
    System.exit(1);
    } catch (Exception e){
    e.printStackTrace();
    When I run the code, I am getting the 'ClassNotFoundException'. I have JVM 1.4 and have included classes12.zip and ojdbc.jar in the class path.
    What am I missing?

    or better yet, upgrade to a less ancient driver jar.
    The driver classname you supplied is correct for Oracle 9i and later, but the driver jar you use is for Oracle 8. It's also for Java 1.2 (hence the "classes12" name), and seriously lacking in features and performance compared to more modern versions.
    Of course if you're stuck with a 10 year old database version you have little recourse but to use it, but no reputable company would use something that old any longer, especially since it's been out of support for ages.

  • Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database (afscpgcs) after clone

    Hi,
    I have just moved (clone using rapidclone) two of our 11.5.10.2 install from a solaris SPARC 8 to 10 . After the clone, while discoverer 10g works perfectly well in one environment, it is giving the error below in the another environment.
    - Failed to connect to database - Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database (afscpgcs)
    Notes:
    1. For the 2 environments, nothing as changed apart from the hostnames.
    2. The password has not changed on both - from source to targets.
    3. This happens when launching discoverer 10g from Apps.... discoverer works well on it own if not launched from apps.
    I raised a SR with oracle and the 2 things they said have not worked. they said
    1. change signon password case parameter - but I cannot find that in the list of system parameters on our system.
    2. The other note says apply patch 6430269 and I can confirm this patch has been on the system for sometime.
    Please advise on this if you have come accross this before and you can help here.
    Thanks

    Thanks for your concern. I have used the notes you listed but no luck. One thing I have to point out here is that I have always cloned from solaris 8 to 8 for years without this problem. Now I am cloning from solaris 8 to 10 and the problems is on just one environment. The other is working well. The problem seems to be related to the apps password but the password has not changed at all. Also, I have tried to change the password to something else and ran autoconfig but no luck. Please help

  • Unable to connect to Oracle Discover Application: ORB Initialization failure

    We are running Discoverer 4.1.37 in a DMZ. Some of our internal users receive a "Unable to connect to Oracle Discoverer Application: ORB Initialization failure ..." error when trying to use Discoverer Plus. Our external users are able to connect using Discoverer Plus. We have SSL and Gatekeeper was configured with the machine's IP address (Exterior address), port 443 (exterior port), and exterior proxy address. Networking changes were made to enable users to use one web address instead of two (one for external and one for internal). Also, if I trying to use the machine's IP address in the web address, Discoverer just says "Loading" in the Discoverer Plus status box. If I use the one web address (originally, the external web address), I can log into Discoverer.

    How are you trying to connect the database using JPA?
    Has your datasource got bind successfully. You should check all these things first. If your datasource has not got binded then debug for that.

  • Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database invalid username/password

    Hi,
    Ou Requirement is we want to connect to Oracle Applications using discoverer plus and discoverer viewer.
    Application Server used : 10.1.2.0.2
    Oracle Applications : R12 RUP4
    We have installed application server 10g with OID and when we try to connect to oracle applications we are getting
    A connection error has occurred.
    - Failed to connect to database - Unable to connect to Oracle Applications database: invalid username/password.
    Regards
    Ketan

    Hi,
    I think better to check with your sysadmin or DBA on this, I had the same isuse before but Apps 11i with Discoverer, I talked to ERP sysadmin and worked fine.
    Since applications userid cannot talk with Discoverer schema (eul10_us) and it should directly talk with APPS user and then APPS user can talk with Discoverer user.
    To the best of my knowledge I provided.

    Ok, I was able to succesfully connect to the database from the client. I made the following changes to the sqlnet.ora, tnsnames and listener. Here are the changes I made:

  • Unable to connect to Oracle using OCI Drivers on Linux

    Hi Everyone!
    I am facing a peculiar issue while using Instant Client on Linux ( 64Bit ) running on Red Hat 4.1.
    I have downloaded the instant client version 10.2.0.3(.zip) .so files from the below URL
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/oci/instantclient/htdocs/linuxx86_64soft.html
    UPloaded all the files to a directory under /opt and changed the .bash_profile file, the latest content looks like

    I have used the classes12.jar and ojdbc.jar which came with the download and nothing seems to work. A bit surprising when sqlplus works and not the application. I suspect there could be an issue with the driver class. I have been struggling to figure this out for days now...
    Can anyone please share their thoughts if something similar was observed earlier please.
    Any quick help will highly be appreciated.

    ORACLE_HOME=/opt/instantclient_10_2
    export ORACLE_HOMEYou don't set ORACLE_HOME with Instant Client.
    PATH=$PATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
    export PATHThis is unnecessary.
    CLASSPATH=/opt/instantclient_10_2:/opt/instantclient_10_2/ojdbc.jar
    export CLASSPATHThis is wrong.
    It should be:
    CLASSPATH=/opt/instantclient_10_2/ojdbc14.jar:<whatever else you need there>
    Java.library.path=/opt/instantclient_10_2
    export Java.library.pathThis is useless; java.library.path is not an environment variable.
    java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no ocijdbc10 in java.library.pathThe case is pretty clear. You want to use the OCI driver (your URL starts with "jdbc:oracle:oci:"), so the Java Virtual Machine is looking for libocijdbc10.so in the Java library path but cannot find it.
    What is also clear is that the program does not use the CLASSPATH environment variable you set, because then it would never have found the Oracle Driver.
    So it seems that your program is ignoring the environment you set (which would explain why it also ignores LD_LIBRARY_PATH which you set correctly).
    You must have the environment variables set and exported in the shell that starts the "java" executable.
    Also, check that there is no other ojdbc14.jar on this machine (use "find").
    To help you debug your problem, let me explain how Sun Java sets Java library path on Linux:
    - If you start java with "java -Djava.library.path=/some/dir:/other/dir ...", the Java library path is set to exactly that value.
    - If you do not specify -Djava.library.path, the Java library path is taken from the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
    - Directories listed in /etc/ld.so.conf have no influence on the Java library path (which gave me quite a headache in the beginning).
    Do you really need the OCI Driver? If you can do with the Thin Driver (i.e., use an URL that starts with "jdbc:oracle:thin:") you don't need any shared libraries at all.
    Yours,
    Laurenz Albe

  • Unable to connect to Oracle database on RHEL4

    Hi,
    I have completed installation of Oracle 10g release 2. on RHEL 4.
    On logging on to the RHEL 4 machine, I am able to start Oracle database and use sqlplus.
    However, I am unable to connect to it from my desktop, which is windows xp. The tnsnames.ora file in the windows desktop has been updated. However its not able to connect to this machine. The RHEL4 machine is configured with DHCP. Could this be the problem? I would not be able to configure it with static IP, is there a way to configure it with DHCP? tnsping does not identify the database instance either. I get the following error.
    TNS-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error
    Regards,
    Rishikesh

    rishikesh,
    On the RHEL4 machine
    1. check the listener:
    -check if the service name of your database is registered
    -check on which NIC/ip address the listener is listening
    2. check if you can login using TCP
    -do a tnsping of the connection descriptor you are using
    If both tests succeed, go to the client (windows XP machine)
    1. check if the RHEL4 machine responds to the ping command
    if that works:
    2. check if the hostname used in ping is the same as the hostname in the connectstring
    3. check if the service name in the connectstring is the same as in the listener
    4. check if the port number in the connectstrings is the same as in the listener

  • Unable to connect to Oracle 9i from Forms 6i

    Hi,
    I have Oracle 9.2.0 (Personal edition) and Forms 6i installed on a Win2K PC.
    I am able to connect to the DB from SQLPLUS. But, I am unable to connect to the DB from Forms 6i. Can anyone suggest where am I going wrong and what is that I need to do to resolve the problem.
    Thanks in advance!!!

    Normaly forms6i uses Tnsnames.ora file to connect to the database. You need to setup your Tnsnames.ora file correctly by clicking Start---Programs---Directory for Oracle--Oracle net8 easy config, and configure your database connection.

  • Unable to connect to Oracle 8i using the JDBC - OCI8

    I am unable to connect to the to the Oracle 8i database using
    JDBC 8.1.5. er. Each time I try I get the message:
    "java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: no ocijdbc8 in
    java.library.path"
    When I try to establich a "connection" using the connection
    manager with JDeveloper 2.0 I get the message:
    "No ocijdbc8 in shared library path"
    What's the problem? Is it that I do not have the appropriate
    driver? It is unlikely because the thin driver works...
    null

    I dealt with this problem. For some reason OCI drivers
    installation is not included in typiclal Jdev 2.0 instalation.
    (bug?). In your instalation kit find Oracle 8i instalation disk,
    and run the installer on the client machine (i.e. the same
    machine where Jdev is installed where you were not able to
    connect with OCI-8). Choose client installation and choose
    custom installation. Than in the product list choose JDBC
    drivers. Make sure OCI drivers are included. Install it. Now you
    can find file ocijdbc8.dll in your ORACLE_HOME/bin directory.
    Now you should be able to connect using OCI-8.
    Best of luck,

    I have a Dell Power Edge Server with 1 network card. I have installed VMWare ESXi 5 on it. Created several Windows 2003 Servers Virtual Machines. Networking is working fine all these windows machines. On one of the virtual machines I have installed Oracel VM Server 2.2.2 (Dom0) and on top of it I am trying to install Oracle VM Template for Oracle 11g provided by Oracle. I am having connectivity issues on the Oracle 11gDB (DomU). I can ping and ssh from Dom0 to DomU and vice versa. But I cannot connect the Oracle DB machine from any other machine. I can connect the Oracle VM Server (Dom0) from other computers in my network.
    Any clue what the issue is ?
    Thanks,

    Dear Bhanu Chander!
    You have tried to use OS-Authentication "/ as sysdba". Is your OS-User a member of the dba group? If not this will not work. It will also not work if you tried to connect from a remote host to your database with OS-Authentication because the parameter REMOTE_OS_AUTHEN has a default value of FALSE and it should remain to FALSE.

  • Unable to connect to Oracle 11g server using instantclient_11_1 in AIX

    Hi,
    I downloaded instantclient-basic-11.1.0.7.0-aix-ppc64.zip from oracle site and used the same for connection to 11g server for testing my application on AIX 5.3 machine. I am also using easysoft driver for the connection. But I am uhnable to connect to Oracle 11g server from AIX 5.3 using instantclient_11_1 client
    libraries. I get the error "Could not load oracle libraries". Error is as below:
    WARNING: Setup was unable to contact your ORACLE
    WARNING: server by using the connection options
    WARNING: you specified.
    WARNING: Error connecting to DB: -1
    WARNING: HY000: [unixODBC][Easysoft][Oracle]Could not load oracle libraries
    But I could connect to the same server from AIX 5.3 machine using instantclient_10_2 libraries and same eaysoft drivers successfully.
    Looks like there is issue with connecting with instantclient_11_1 client libraries from AIX 5.3. I also tried with using 11.1.0.6.0. Same issue is observed.
    Did anybody else face similar issue?
    Thanks and Regards,
    Prema S

    I you find nobody who has the same problem, here are some hints:
    - Try to connect using "sqlplus" from the instant client. If that fails, there is probably a problem with your setup.
    - Look if the Easysoft driver supports Oracle 11.1 as client.
