Upgrade from oracle linux 5.5 to oracle linux 6 with oracle kernel

Hi
Is it possible to directly upgrade this two OS
Regards
Jaroslaw

Oracle Linux is derived from Red Hat Enterprise Linux, which does not support upgrading between major versions. Red Hat does not support in-place upgrades between any major versions of Red Hat Enterprise Linux. In-place upgrades across major releases do not preserve all system settings, services or custom configurations.

Upgrading from CR 8.5 to CR 2008, along with Oracle DB from 9 to 11G

We currently use Crystal Reports 8.5, yeah its ancient, but suited our needs. Our web guys upgraded our server to oracle 11g R2, and now we have lil issues with the changes and how the old CR works. So figured it was time to upgrade it as well. My problem lies that i know nothing of database connectors. I have a guide for oracle 9 and CR 8.5 written by the guy before me. works great.
with out changing anything and just installing and trying to refresh a current report i recieved an error
"Failed to load database information.
Details: the database connector 'crdb_oracle.dll' could not be loaded. The correct version of the database client for this database type might not be installed."
I looked around the new CR for an oracle connector that exists in the old 8.5 version, and found nothing.
So i tried and downloaded the oracle instant client... which just has you copy a folder with the dlls and enter in a new entry to the environment path variable. Still get alot of nothing. Not sure if i should just reinstall 2008 at this point or what. the forum going back the last year didnt help me.
ideas

CR 8.5 or 9 is not Oracle 11 aware. Past their end of life so not sure how to fix this. Possibly use ODBC or OLE DB drviers.

You don't need to have Lightroom 3 and 4 installed on your computer to install Lightroom 5. Just install Lightroom 5 and input your serial number for 3 in the previous version box and your serial number for 5 in the upgrade box.

I want to but Photoshop CS6 as an upgrade from CS5. Don't want to fool with CC.

Successful installation of 8iEE 8.1.7 on RedHat linux 7.2 but no luck with Oracle 9i

Hi All,
I've successfully installed Oracle8i EE version 8.1.7 on RedHat
Linux 7.2. However, I have NOT had much luck installing Oracle
9i version 9.0.1 on RedHat Linux 7.2. I am wondering if anyone
in this forum has any luck installing Oracle 9i on RedHat Linux
7.2. I am running Linux kernel 2.4.7-10.
Now I am not trying to start a shouting match here; however, it
seems to me that a person with any common sense would not run
Oracle database on a Windows platform. Instead of running it
on Windows platform, one would be much better off running it on
Linux platform. I am currently Oracle EE 8.1.7 on an dual-Intel
processor 266MHZ with 512MB of RAM with Linux as the Operating
System. I have to say that the performance of the box is really
solid. At the same time, I am also running Oracle EE 8.1.7 on
an identical hardware system with Win2K server and I have to say
that the performance system is really pitiful on this Win2k server.
The windows box can only 1 instance at a time. If I try to have
two instances running at the same time, the windows box just comes
to a screeching halt. In contrast, the Linux box really rocks. In
a testing environment, I have 3 instances running at the same time
and the linux is barely breaking a sweat. I am getting maximum
performance out of the linux box because I recompile the linux kernel
to optimize the box to run Oracle database.
Having said that, as an Oracle DBA newbie (with less than six months
of Oracle DBA experience, the last ten years as a Cisco/Unix Engineer),
I find it fascinating that Oracle is only certified to run on SUSE (may
be I am wrong and someone can correct me on this one) when RedHat is
probably the dominant Linux distro. It took three days to get Oracle 8i
version 8.1.7 to install on RedHat Linux 7.2. Why Oracle is slowed to
support Linux RedHat is something I just don't understand.
OK, enough of venting my frustration, if anyone has successfully installed
Oracle 9i EE version 9.0.1 on RedHat Linux 7.2, please share your knowledge.
In the mean time, if anyone interested in obtaining instructions on howto
install Oracle 8i version 8.1.7 on Redhat Linux 7.1/7.2, send me an email
at [email protected] and I will send the instructions. The instructions
are written specifically for "windows dummies" so it is very to read and
follow. If you have been Unix for a long time, there will be instructions
in there that are so easy some of you may ask why put those in there in the
first place. My response would be: "windows dummies".
Regards,
Michael (david)

I very much agree with you Oracle is working very much better on Unix/Linux than Windows BUT in many cases you are obliged to use windows ( in Case that My company high managment enforce it ) , I have installed 9i on Windows and Linux , I am herunder including the full details :
========================================================================
Installing Oracle 9i on Linux
     Linux : Redhat 7.2
     Oracle : 9i Server EE 9.0.1.0.0
     RAM Used : 256 M Ram
     Hard Disk : IDE RAID
     Linux Kernel : 2.4.4-10
     JDK : Blackdown jdk118_v3 => downloaded from www.blackdown.org
     All shell here is the Bash shell ( Bourne again shell )
1.     To run a shell script over Linux , just drag the shell file from the file manager and drop it to a shell window
     Be sure to have swap space of 400 M or more
     If the systems stop responding for some time , leave it , it will continue
     Be sure to make a stage area for the CDs # 2 , 3 only because you will start from the CD 1 but after going in the installation the CDROM freezes and refuses to open door to replace CD ,, in this case you will switch to the last 2 CDs from the stage area
     Make sure you have the following executables at /usr/bin : MAKE , AR , LD , NM , C for Unix that is installed during Linux installation from the distribution media
Steps ( Root User ) :
1.     be sure to have to have your server domain is like hostess.com.eg and you can be able to ping it
     open /etc/hosts
     add a line as follows ( for instance ) :
     192.168.0.11 hostess.com.eg hostess
     ping hostess.com.eg
     ping hostess
     ping 192.168.0.11
     be sure to have a replay for all of them
2.     install JDK inside the /usr/local directory => after downloading the JDK you can easily decompress it but just clicking at it using the GUI
3.     get to the / prompt
4.     type ln s /usr/local/jdk118_v3 /usr/local/java
5.     download binutil RBM from Redhat for version 7 of Linux to downgrade binutils for Linux 7.2 or you will encounter an error at the third CD set
6.     download it from : ftp://ftp.redhat.com/pub/redhat/linux/7.0/en/os/i386/redhat/rpms/binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
7.     run it as follows : rpm -Uvh force nodeps binutils-2.10.0.18-1.i386.rpm
8.     change to /proc/sys/kernel
9.     type cat sem
10.     you will get : 250 32000 32 128
     250 => SEMMSL
     32000 => SEMMNS
     32 => SEMOPM
     128 => SEMMNI
11.     you need to have the SEMOPM to be 128 , to do so , locate the file called sem open it replace the value of 32 with 128
12.     type again cat sem to be sure of taking the required effect
13.     after the installation ends just re-install the 7.2 utils again as follows :
14.     rpm -Uvh force nodeps binutils-2.11.90.0.8-9.i386.rpm
15.     you can find the last RPM at the 7.2 CD set
16.     after downloading the Oracle files from the net you need to decompress it as follows (one step) :
     zcat linux9i_disk1.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
     zcat linux9i_disk2.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
     zcat linux9i_disk3.cpio.gz | cpio idmv
17.     you can decompress them at 2 steps as follows :
     gunzip linux9i_disk1.cpio.gz
     gunzip linux9i_disk2.cpio.gz
     gunzip linux9i_disk3.cpio.gz
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk1.cpio
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk2.cpio
     cpio idmv < linux9i_disk3.cpio
18.     Now you have 3 directories , have care when Burning them to CD because you need to take care of paths
19.     if you have downloaded the files via a Windows machine and have a MKS installed over it you can easily invoke Visual Pax and decompress the files at one go using the GUI program
20.     log on to Linux as Root and run commands in the file commands.txt
21.     log on as user Oracle to be sure that its created
22.     log on as root again
23.     get to the directory of /home/oracle
24.     enable showing the system files
25.     open the file of .bash_profile
26.     add the accompanied bash file contents at the end of it to set the environment variables
27.     log on as user Oracle
28.     open shell and type set and be sure that environment variables are set correctly
29.     open shell and change to the cdrom by typing cd /mnt/cdrom => Linux 7.2 is an auto mounting OS so you at no need to mount the CD drive prior to using it and if you need to mount it just type : AS ROOT
     mount t iso9660 /mnt/cdrom /cdrom
     this is surly after creating a directory at / called cdrom
30.     Start the installer ( as Oracle User ) by typing ./runinstaller
31.     the installer will ask you to run a started script as root , you may open a shell and type su then open Nautilus ( if using Gnome or File manager as super user if using KDE ) and drag the noted file to the shell screen and press enter ,, after it is ended continue with the installer
32.     if asked to supply JDK home directory then it is /usr/local/java
33.     Unix group Name ( to update Oracle software ) : oinstall
34.     Oracle home is : /oracle/9.0.1
35.     base directory : /oracle/orainventory

"Xandros" (linux flavor), shows "TNS 12203" connect with oracle server(win

I am using oracle developer 6i and from 2000 on operating system "Xandros" (linux flavor),and working properly after instalation.
Problem when i am connecting to this Machine with oracle server(windos) it shows "TNS 12203"
i want to use xendros at client side to connect with Database Server on windows nt.
Thanks

Hi,
here is the descroption of TNS 12203
oerr TNS 12203
12203, 00000, "TNS:unable to connect to destination"
// *Cause: Invalid address specified or destination is not listening.
// This error can also occur because of underlying network or network
// transport problems.
// *Action: Verify that the net service name you entered was correct.
// Verify that the ADDRESS portion of the connect descriptor which
// corresponds to the net service name is correct. Ensure that the
// destination process (for example the listener) is running at the
// remote node.
Check if you see the database server from the client machine, and if listener is running and on which port, check tnsnames.ora on client.

CERTIFICATION DETAILS FOR ORACLE DATABASE 11gR2 (11.2.0.3) with Oracle 9i AS.

Hi,
My client is planning to upgrade from 10.2.0.2 to 11.2.0.3 database(AIX 6L). Client having ORACLE 9I AS on different machine and connecting to 10.2.0.2. I am trying to check the certification details for this. but could not able to. Any references please?
I gone through MOS certification, but could not find any thing related to this combination.
I am in the way of checking further options as well..
Regards
DBA....

Well, seeing as how AS 10g has been gone since 2009 Oracle Application Server 10g 9.0.4 & 9.0.4.x (Doc ID 295948.1) I'm not sure an older version would be supported. Now, that's been superseded by an alleged lifetime support policy http://www.oracle.com/us/support/library/lifetime-support-technology-069183.pdf
but that probably has a funny definition of who's life.

Workflow upgrade from 2.6.0 to 2.6.4 with database 8i to 10g

I have installed oracle 10g and imported workflow schema owf_mgr from 8i database. There i faced problem with some tables related to system.wf_payload_t i tried to create those types manually and then try to import but again i failed to import those objects. Now after import i tried to upgrade workflow schema to 2.6.4 every thing worked fine, now when i am trying to access the home page via http://locahost:7777/pls/wf/wfa_html.home it ask for username and i have given owf_mgr and password, but it is not displaying the home page.
Where as when i tried to install a fresh workflow setup using 10g i succeded and the home page i can see.
I hope i have not confused u. Please help me with posible cause and what i should see because i am very new to workflow.
Thanks.
Kumar.

Hi Craig,
From what I heard, there would not be another major ECC release in the near future. New functions have been and will be released in "Enhancement packages" - hopefully it is not another new term to you...
NetWeaver 7.1 has been released (Q3 2007? not Q3 2008 for sure). BI folks might know whether there will be a release 7.1 or not.
Best regards,
Victor

Install Oracle Application Server on the same machine with Oracle Database

Hello!
I have already have installed on my laptop the oracle Database 10g, and i want to install on the same machine Oracle Application Server; can I do that? After i look on some threads on this forum I understand that all I have to do is to change the default port 1521 of the database to antoher ..let's say 1523...how can I change the port? what files do i have to modify? Oracle Application server can work in good conditions with Oracle XE or I will have the same problem?
My SO is Windows XP Professional SP II, all updates, 512RAM, 2Ghz-CPU
Thanks!

Well, you'll have some problems to run simultaneously Database and AS with 512 Mb...
Apart from that, you don't need to start two listeners, you can use just one (the highest version) for both DBs.
If, for any reason, you want to use two, you can change the port within LISTENER.ORA file, normally in ORACLE_HOME\network\admin.

Prepping to upgrade from 10.2.8 to 10.4 -- problem with Disk Utility

I have an 17" iMac that I'm preparing to upgrade from 10.2.8 to 10.4. In preparation, I did the following:
* Mounted a new external HD (LaCie) (my second one)
* Backed-up all personal files / folders to the new drive
* Ran Software Update to check for any recent updates - updated iTunes (6.0.3) + an iPod update
* Ran Disk Utility to repair permissions (which I do whenever I've installed or deteted software) -- Have never had any issues, but this is where my problem started.
Repair permissions hangs at the end (status bar to the very end), and it appears to be working on permissions related to iTunes (sorry, will have to run Disk Utility again and follow-up with the specifics). I ran it twice with the same result.
I saw other threads suggesting that the problem may be with the latest iTunes update (recommending moving the iTunes application folder to the desktop and rerunning Disk Utility), but it seems specific to 10.3. Could this be an issue with 10.2.8 as well. If I can successfully complete repairs to permissions (with the above workaround), can I proceed with the 10.4 upgrade, and if so, what should I do with the iTunes application folder (keep it on the desktop, or move it back)?
Thanks

Cornelius ... thanks for the follow-up. I went ahead and tried both methods, although I should note that I didn't show the iTunes.pkg or iTunesPhoneDrive.pkg files in the Library>Receipts folder as described in the two approaches. I had no luck at all with Kappy's solution (I moved the one file I did have -- iTunesX.pkg -- and Disk Utility stalled as before). I moved iTunes.pkg back to its original folder, and tried the first method you described. I moved the iTunes app to my desktop, and I was able to successfully repair permissions. I trashed two files (iTunes3.pkg and iTunes4.pkg) and left the iTunesX.pkg file as instructed (again, I don't show the iTunesPhoneDriver.pkg file at all). I reran Disk Utility with the same faulty result.
I suspect it may have something to do with the missing files. Any thoughts on that?
Thanks again.
Max:
Sorry I misunderstood you. Actually you don't move
your iTunes folder at all. Here are a couple of
procedures. Since I have not had to use it I can't
vouch for either, but I have heard both have worked
for others.Just to catalogue the
solutions listed above
Here's what I did, and it worked fine.
1) Move iTunes onto the Desktop.
2) Run Disk Utility
3) Go to HD>Library>Receipts and trash all iTunes
.pkg files EXCEPT for iTunesX.pkg and
iTunesPhoneDriver.pkg
4) empty Trash.
5) move iTune from Desktop back to 'Applications'.
Hey presto. you should now be able to repair
permissions again.
HTH
Kappy’s solution
1. Navigate to the /Library/Receipts/ folder.
2. Locate the iTunes.pkg and iTunesX.pkg files and
move them to the Desktop.
3. Run Disk Utility and repair permissions.
4. Move the .pkg files back into the
/Library/Receipts/ folder.Note that you
are not moving the iTunes folder, but the .pkg files
from the Receipts folder. In the first method you
Trash some of them, in the second you move them back.
But you don't touch the iTunes application as such.
Good luck.

Upgrading from iPhone 3g to iPhone 4 - how to with no dataloss?

I am upgrading from an iPhone 3g to a iPhone 4. I don't want to lose any data (messages/contacts/apps) between the switch. I am currently using a desktop that I am synchronized with. However, once I get the iPhone 4, I want to synchronize my phone with my laptop. Am I able to synchronize my 3g with my laptop and save all data. Then move to my iPhone 4 and synchronize with no data loss?

All iTunes content on your iPhone should be in your iTunes library on your computer - all music, movies, tv shows, and 3rd party apps.
If you have Sync Music selected under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes - you don't have manually manage music and videos selected with their being no benefit with manually managing music and videos with an iPhone, after purchasing music from the iTunes store with your iPhone, the music will be copied to your iTunes library on your computer automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
The same with 3rd party apps when having Sync Apps selected under the Apps tab for your iPhone sync preferences, which should be selected for a number of reasons. With this selected, after downloading an app direct with your iPhone, the app will be copied to your iTunes library automatically the first time you sync your iPhone with iTunes after doing so.
Photos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. The Camera Roll is for temporary storage no different with any other digital camera.
And photos transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync/transfer process should remain on your computer.
If you don't have Sync Music selected and Sync Apps selected, with your 3G connected to iTunes, at the iTunes menu bar go to File and select Transfer Purchases From - the name of your iPhone. This should transfer all music purchased/downloaded from the iTunes store direct with your iPhone and the same for all 3rd party apps.

5% to 15% of sites fail to open due to 706 error. Started happening when I upgraded from FF 3.22; getting worse and worse with each FF 11 upgrade.

E.g., reading an online newspaper. I will open many tabs with different articles. About 1 out of 10 tabs will have a 706 error, which goes away when I click the reload button.
It's most noticeable then, but it occasionally happens (1 out of 10 sites) when I click a single link off my bookmarks menu, or manually enter a URL.
I think FF is not y waiting long enough for some kind of response from the remote link.
Like I said, this started happening when I upgraded from 3.22

All the page says is “failure to read response”
No proxy server.
I’ve got lots of add-ons: NoScript, BeefTaco, Ghostery, etc. How do I get a list for you automatically?
Here’s the response, if you can figure out who or what is generating it.

Websphere/Oracle 11 - much more Heap Usage than with Oracle 10

Hi all,
while testing our application with Oracle 11 (previously, we had Oracle 10), we saw that our server uses much more heap space.
It seems as it has something to do with T4CConnection/T4CPreparedStatement; there are 500 objects of T4CPreparedStatement allocated. Someone told me, that Oracle 11 is using SoftReferences to keep the connection pool; but we don't need that.
Is that correct? Could that be the problem for the increased heap space? If yes - how can we avoid connection pooling?
Thanks a lot!!
Edited by: 840550 on 28.02.2011 23:37

I suspect you are getting a connection for each user and holding onto it for the duration that he is logged in. Also, that you are not closing resultSet and preparedStatements correctly. Rewrite all your code to get/use/close a connection each time its needed as quickly as possible in a try/catch/finally block. There is no performance penalty opening and closing connections countless times in your code (actually, you are not really closing it, but returning it to the pool).
Here is a previous post I provided on how to get/use/close a connection:
Re: can not get the right query result using JDBC
Note: within the above example, you can pass the already open connection to another function within the above function for it to use. Within that other function, you create a new preparedStatement and resultSet. After using it, you close the resultSet and preparedStatement (in that second function), but not the connection (its closed in the outer function).
