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 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

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.

Unable to Connect to Oracle 10gR1 database from JDeveloper 11g using OCI

We are migrating our application from OC4J to Weblogic server. As a part, I am trying to create a database connection in JDeveloper 11g (11.1.1.3.0 - Build JDEVADF_11.1.1.3.PS2_GENERIC_100408.2356.5660) to Oracle 10gR1 database. Previously I had Oracle 10g Client installed in the machine. Created a database connection using OCI driver and when I try to test connect, I got "Test Failed: no ocijdbc11 in java.library.path". I searched through Metalink and forums and one suggestion was to install Oracle 11g Client on the machine where Jdeveloper 11g is installed. I installed 11g R1 client and tried the same test connection using OCI driver. Now I am getting "Test failed: ORA-12705: Cannot access NLS data files or invalid environment specified" error.
The same database connection works good with Thin driver with both Oracle 10g client and 11gR1 client.
Previously I had Jdeveloper 10.1.3.2 and Oracle 10g Client and I was able to connect to database without any errors.
Could you provide me the steps for this or if I missed any steps?
Steps to Replicate:
For the error: no ocijdbc11 in java.library.path
1) Install JDeveloper 11g (With embedded Weblogic Server)
2) Install Oracle 10g Client on the same machine
3) Create a database connection in the "Application Resources --> Connection"
4) Use OCI driver. Enter the host details about the Oracle 10g R1 database
5) Test connect to the database.

5) Test connect to the database.
Note: Tried the same scenarios with Oracle 11gR2 client as well. It was not working at all.
Any ideas and pointers would be great.

1. will my problem get solved after i install oracle 11g client on my machine.Yes, your problem should get solved. The version of the Oracle 11g Client must match the version of the JDev's JDBC drivers. Alternatively you may install an Oracle 11g Client and replace JDev's Oracle JDBC drivers with these from the installed client. Please, read carefully my 1st posting above in this thread.
2. can i patch JDeveloper 11g on my machine to work with 10g client, or can i do the same with 10g client.You might succeed if you replace JDev's built-in JDBC drivers (which are 11g versions) with 10g versions, but I do not recommend you to try that because JDeveloper 11g and ADF 11g may be using some 11g features that do not exist in 10g drivers, so you may have problems.
I also have PLSql developer installed on my machine and it works well.PL/SQL Developer does not use JDBC drivers, so it is not an relevant example in this case.
My generall recommendation is to use Oracle JDBC Thin drivers. Oracle claimed that OCI drivers had better performance, but this was really true about earlier releases. Current Oracle 11g JDBC Thin drivers offer excellent performance and they offer all the features of the OCI versions (which was not true about earlier releases). In my opinion, the most important disadvantage of Oracle JDBC OCI drivers is that most versions have native memory leaks so all the RAM would get consumed after long application execution. The fact that WebLogic Server does not offer Oracle JDBC OCI drivers by default anymore says that Oracle discourages the usage of the OCI driver in favour of Thin driver.

Unable to connect to Oracle Applications through SYSADMIN

Hi,
I have just installed Oracle Applications 11.5.10 on windows machine.
everything is completed successfully. Now while connecing through SYSADMIN account, error description says " You have insufficient privileges for the current operation."
Please guide me to resolve the issue.
Regards,
Neeraj

Hi Neeraj,
To solved that issue we changed hostname, to eliminate the underscore character, you will need to do that if you are going Internet Explorer on your clients.
After that, you will need to follow a special procedure to recreate your context files in the Apps and database tiers.
Try to follow Note: 218089.1 "Frequently Asked Questions About Using AutoConfig With Oracle Applications Release 11i", sections Net Services and Database Connectivity.
Sorry, but I don't have in this moment the exact Note number that I followed to solve that issue.
HTH.
Kind regards,
Francisco Mtz.

Unable to connect to Oracle XE database

Hello
I have installed the XE database and it is running just fine. I have even been able to create a Discoverer EUL against it and I have no problems.
Today I downloaded Raptor and tried to create a new connection. I followed the instructions here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/project_raptor/howtos/howto_connect_xe.html
but these do not work. When I click Test ot Connect the system appears to try and connect but then I see this message in red "Status :Failure -lo exception: Got minus one from a read call"
Anyone have any ideas?
Best wishes
Michael

What OS are you running on? I connect to XE every day using v804 and our QA did full certification testing against XE.
I have one connection that is for system (named 'XE-system') and another for my user.
Hostname = 127.0.0.1
Port = 1521

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.

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

hi bsubbu
your password of custom application user schema at database level should be similar with the password at application level
for instance your custom application schema name and password is xxgis/xxgis , we register this schema at application site by this navigation
security> oracle > register >database username (xxgis) > password (xxgis)
here you might have change your custom application user's password at database level using
alter user xxgis identified by newpassword;
change this user password at application site also :
security> oracle > register> database username (xxgis) > password (newpassword)
i understand this from the document

This application does not fail in other databases, only in which I have the problem.
The connection to the database through the SQLPLUS and other applications works well. The error is presented only when calling reports from the application.
Another point is that the problem is presented with some users and not with others even they have the same conditions as roles, profiles, grant objects, etc.
If i run my report with the following url applying directly on address bar of web browser then it run fine on web browser
http://hostname.domain:port/reports/rwservlet?report=myreport.jsp&userid=un/pw@db&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
OAS 10g and Database are on different machines.
Please... any idea about this problem?
Thanks!!

I use a report object, imagine that sends connect information when creating the Job in the reports server.
However the same problem happens if I call to report from the Internet Explorer with all parameters of connectivity, for example;
http://hostname.domain:port/reports/rwservlet?report=myreport.rep&userid=un/pwdb@&destype=cache&desformat=PDF
The only difference in this database is that it is configured in a RAC and as I mentioned the problem occurs with some users and not with others, even if they are identical.
Thank for your help!

Oracle Generic Connectivity in Oracle Application Ser ver 10g.

Hi Tak and All!
With the help of your great guidence, I have connect the Generic Connectivty for MS Access and MS Excel successfully in client server environment.
The topology was..
Host A = Custom installation of Oracle9i database + MS ACCESS
Host B = Oracle 9i Database (Complete)
But...
tell me How the Oracle Generic Connectivity will connect in ORACLE APPLICATION SERVER. What will be the concept and topology? Because the client only have the URL which is used for getting application on browser.
I will be extremely thankful.
All these forums always help me.
Thanks

It depends. Oracle Reports can connect to Oracle and non-Oracle databases directly, without using Generic Connectivity.
Your Forms application would presumably connect only to the Oracle database. The Oracle database might well connect to other Oracle and non-Oracle databases via database links. The non-Oracle database links would utilize Generic Connectivity.
Given the three machines A, B, and C
A could connect to B and B could connect to C
A could connect to C for reporting queries

Failover not working while connecting to Oracle 11g database

Hi,
We have a J2EE application that connects to Oracle 11g database.
The connection URL we are using is as below
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION =(SDU=32768)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=abc.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST= xyz.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=PQR)))
The issue that we are facing is, the database failover is not working.The application only connects to the first host in the TNS entry.Evertime there is a failure in the connection to the first host,manual steps are required to swap the hosts.
This started happening after we upgraded Oracle DB from 9i to 11g.
We are using the client jar of 9i to connect to 11g. Could this be causing the problem?
Thanks In Advance.

Yes, you are right. Nothing else was updated.
The application still works as expected except the failover.If you are correct then I seriously doubt it has anything to do with java. It would be something to do with Oracle and/or network infrastructure.
If not then it is some small problem with the driver. You can try updating the driver but I wouldn't expect a fix.
