Unable to install Oracle Provider for OLEDB 8.1.6

I was trying to install Oracle Provider for OLEDB 8.1.6 but was not able to do so because the java run-time environment could not be found. I have tried to install it on different computers, it worked on some and not on others. The computers I have tried all had windows 2000 or NT 4.0. I greatly appreciate if you could help.

Found the post below on another thread. This would not work for us without changing the JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS as well.
========================================================
One of our DBAs had the answer. Its a bug relating to p4 processors.
1. Rename the file symcjit.dll to symcjit.old
2. Change the following line in the "oraparam.ini" file to read:
JRE_MEMORY_OPTIONS=-nojit -ms16m -mx32m
They said someone found it in Oracle KB article 131299.1 but I have still been unable to find the Oracle KB. Perhaps a "Knowledge Base" link should be added to the support or resources section.

Unable to install Oracle Provider for OLE DB 8.1.6

I could not install Oracle Provider for OLE DB 8.1.6. The problem was when I double click on the Setup.exe to run setup, it would not execute on some computers (brand new computers) and worked fine on others. I often got an error message saying that the Java Run-time Environment was not found. Has anyone run into that problem. I greatly appreciate if you could help.

Intall Oracle Provider for OLeDB version 8.1.6.2.0

I have one pb while Installing Oracle Provider for oledb Vers 8.1.6.2.0 (Os: Windows98 Compaq computer)
/win32/Setup.exe occurs Windows Error
Error Message (in french) : Jrew a cause defaillance de page dans le module JAVAI.dll
Dou you think that the next version of Oracle oledb provider resolvs this error?

I used Oracle Provider for OleDB 9.2.0.4 (which is the most actual as far as I know) even with an Oracle 8i database.
The 9i OleDb drivers are more reliable than the 9i and they seem to work fine with 8i databases.
Unless you use some very specific features, this may be an option.

Installing a VB application using Oracle Provider for OLEDB

Hi all,
I have a corporate VB application that uses the Oracle 9i client.
The Oracle Client is on a network disk, so all my clients will not need to install on their client machines.
I am using Wise for Windows Installer to install the application on each client machine.
I need to include on the installation package the "Oracle Provider for OLEDB" files.
How can I do this?
Thank you all,
Ardates Cruz.

The standard way to use the unmanaged Oracle.DataAccess is to install an Oracle client on any machine that wants to use the application.
It is possible to avoid that installation by including a bunch of DLLs and some other files in the application, but it's far more cumbersome than using the managed client. Here's a link to get you started on that: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13721025/deploying-and-configuring-odp-net-to-work-without-installation-with-entity-frame

ORacle provider for OLEDB

Hi,
I've downloaded and installed Oracle client. I can connect to the database using SQLPLUS. Tnsnames.ora file is in place.
My question is how do I activate Oracle Provider of OLEDB?
I tried to create a udl file can be used to test the connection (referred in the link provided below). To create a udl file on the desktop choose to create a new text document and name it with the .udl extension. But on the Provider page I can't see the option for "Oracle Provider for OLEDB" .
https://support.oracle.com/CSP/ui/flash.html#tab=KBHome(page=KBHome&id=()),(page=KBNavigator&id=(viewingMode=1143&from=BOOKMARK&bmDocTitle=When%20Logging%20into%20FDM%20Receive%20%22Error:%20%20ORA-12154:%20TNS:%20could%20not%20resolve%20service%20name%22&bmDocType=PROBLEM&bmDocDsrc=DOCUMENT&bmDocID=597375.1))
I can see that OLEDB folder exists under <ORACLE_CLIENT_HOME>\oledb
Any pointers will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

Gaurav,
Well the installer is not running on MS windows 2008. It just terminates abnormally with some UNknown error.Then please read below thread carefully, try to follow around it. If still problem then I think post the question on dedicated forum [url https://forums.oracle.com/forums/forum.jspa?forumID=148&start=0]Oracle Provider for OLE DB

Oracle Provider for OLEDB for 9.0.1 on WinNT

Is the Oracle Provider for OLEDB in 9.0.1 missing ? I did not
find it in the client nor in the server.
I am using the OTN Download for installation.
Thanks in Advance
--Shirish

You can double-check on the OLE DB forum, but I'm pretty confident the answer is no. You need to install the client so that the OLE DB provider will have the OCI and SQL*Net libraries necessary to actually communicate with the database.

Oracle Provider for oledb 8i & 9i truncates LONG fields

Anyone,
I have a situation where my Oracle oledb driver truncates LONG fields.
My application that runs queries using the oracle oledb driver.
The query is a join between two tables and includes a LONG as one of the fields retrieved.
When the Cursor Location is set to server the data returned is truncated.
Setting the Cursor Location to Client I can retrieve the complete data under specific cursor and lock types. The Microsoft driver for oracle does not truncate.
Note that a simple query without the join does not cause the problem.
Has anyone else noticed this? I know its quite specific.
Thanks
Stuart

Hi,
I've got the same problem, i.e. SELECT a LONG RAW column from
joined/unioned tables truncates the column (via OraOleDB).
Unfortunately, setting ChunkSize to 65535 does not help me,
because data in a column are longer, then 64K (and are truncated
to 64K). Please, have you found any solution?
Thanks for any reply ..

Unable to add a stored proc through Oracle Provider for OLE DB

I want to bind an oracle stored procedure to a report. This oracle stored procedure returns a cursor.
Problem Definition:
When I use the "Oracle Provider For OLE DB driver." to bind the store procedure with the report, I am getting the following message.
Description : ORA -06550 Line 1 Column 7
PLS 00306 wrong number of types or arguments to the "Strored Procedure Name"
But When I use "Microsoft OLE DB provider for oracle" driver, I can bind the stored procedure to the report successfully .
Please help me in resolving this problem.
My Stored procedure is something like this.
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE GroupsPackage
AS
TYPE CURSOR_TYPE IS REF CURSOR;
PROCEDURE usp_SelectGroups (int intInputI IN ,Dresults_cursor OUT CURSOR_TYPE);
END;
CREATE OR REPLACE PACKAGE BODY GroupsPackage
AS
PROCEDURE usp_SelectGroups (int intInputI IN ,results_cursor OUT CURSOR_TYPE)
AS
BEGIN
OPEN results_cursor FOR
SELECT GroupID, GroupName, GroupDescription, LastUpdateDate
FROM Groups
ORDER BY GroupName;
END;
END;

I think the following SAP Note would help you
Symptom
You create a BusinessObjects report and call an Oracle stored function through an object defined in Designer. The stored function name contains a number (like MyFunc2). You refresh the query and receive the error, "Connection or SQL sentence error (DA0005)" followed by, "ORA-06553: PLS-306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to '<function name>' 6552."
You see the incorrect SQL when you open the query panel in BusinessObjects.
Cause
The function defined on the database has several parameters, each separated by a comma. BusinessObjects replaces this comma by a concatenation operator ('||'). Thus the database does not understand the SQL statement.
Resolution
****CONFIGURATION*****
Business Objects version 5.x
Oracle database version 8.1.6
*********RESOLUTION*****
Here are two workarounds for this issue:
Workaround 1
Modify the SQL generated in the query panel.
1. Replace the concatenation operators ('ll') with commas.
2. Check the option "Do not regenerate SQL."
Workaround 2
Rename your Oracle function to a name with no digits or numbers.

Raghavendra

Oracle Provider for OLE DB Error

Hello all.
Can anyone help me understanding why using a statement like
select * from openquery( linkservername, 'select * from table' )
fails with
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: ]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'OraOLEDB.Oracle' IRowset::GetData returned 0x80004005: ].
On the sql server side, when using the Oracle Provider for OLE DB, but success when I change the linked server to use Microsoft Oracle Provider for OLE DB? It makes no sense to me. Sometimes, when I add a rownum <= 100 it does work with the Oracle OLE DB Provider. As you can see, I installed Oracle Client 10g on the sql server running version 2000, and created a linked server to an Oracle server running Oracle 10.2.4.0. The queries work fine with the Microsoft driver, but fail with the above message when using the oracle native driver.
For your information, here's the select @@version from the sql server database.
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.760 (Intel X86) Dec 17 2002 14:22:05 Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)
Just wanted to know what might the problem as using the Microsoft driver the session doesn't seem to use FCF.
Any other information you may need, just let me know.
Thanks!

Hi,
I'm not familiar with that particular error, but if you're not already using 10204 oledb/client, I'd certainly do that as a first step. There were lots of issues fixed in our oledb provider since 10201.
Hope it helps,
Greg

Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0

Hi,
I installed 10g client on my local PC to get access to an ASP application using 10g database. The select always returns no row for a username, therefore, I could not login to the application. But the sqlStatement in SQL*Plus did return a row. More strangely, one script also uses Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0 works without any problem.
In Oracle Provider for OLE DB 10.1.0.2.0 documentation, it has the following as system requirements:
System Requirements
The following items are required on a system to use Oracle Provider for OLE DB:
1.Windows NT, Windows XP, Windows 2000, or Windows Server 2003
2.Access to an Oracle database (Oracle8i or later)
3. Oracle Net Services
4. Redistributable files provided with Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2.1 or higher are required by the provider. These files are available at the Microsoft Web site:
http://www.microsoft.com/data/
5. Oracle Services for Microsoft Transaction Server release 10.1 or higher. This is required for consumers using Microsoft Transaction Server (MTS) or COM+.
I think that I might need to download the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC). I went to Microsoft web site, and the latest version for MDAC is 2.8. Anybody has any experience with this? Am I on the right track? I don't want to mess up with my machine by installing MDAC 2.8 if it does not solve the problem.
Thanks, and your early reply is greatly appreciated.
Jane

Well, if some of the required componets were missing, I would imagine you getting an error when trying to connect?
Where is this ASP application actually running?
Is it running on your localhost IIS web server?
If not, any setup on your computer will be irrelevent.
If it is, you need to install MDAC components, and 2.8 is the latest.
If running on your local IIS, did you try to create a very basic ASP page which just creates a connection to the database in question? Does that work?
Do you have ON ERROR statements in your code to bypass any/all SQL errors?
If you create a simple UDL file on your desktop and specify the server/user/password (ater selecting Oracle OLEDB driver), does the connect button work?
