Use dg4msql in Oracle 11.1.0.6.0

Hi all,
i would like to use dg4msql in my 1.1.0.6.0 installation. Searching on the metalink site I found a document related.
In this document is said that you have to aplly the patch number 5965763. It said also "Applies to:Oracle Database Gateway for SQL Server - Version: 11.1.0.6 to 12.0.0.0".
But when I try to apply this patch prerequisite check fails because I have a rdbms 11.1.0.6.0 and a lower version is required.
I have search some information about this but found nothing.
In the same machine we have another 10.2.0 oracle installation, can this affect?? Any ideas??
Thank you in advance,
Alex

The patch you are refering to does NOT contain any gateway. It is a database patch to make older database releases compatible with the V11 gateways.
The V11 gateway can be downloaded from edelivery: http://edelivery.oracle.com. You have to enter the contact details, confirm export and license restrictions and then you have to choose Oracle Database as product and select the correct platform. You'll get a list of available products for download. Choose 11g CD pack and look for "gateway". Download this CD and install the gateway from this dediacted gateway CD.

Problem to connect SQL Server using dg4msql form Linux machine

Hi All,
I have oracle 11g 11.2.0.1.0 on RHEL 4 on one machine and MS SQL Server 2000 on another Windows XP machine. I have to link the oracle database with SQL Server Database. So that we can run queries on SQL Server from Oracle 11 Database.
For this purpose I have installed Oracle Database 11g Release 2 (11.2) Gateway for SQL Server on oracle machine.
For the purpose of configuration, I have followed the instructions of Doc ID (437374.1) available from oracle metalink.

I have created DB link using following statement:
CREATE public DATABASE LINK dg4 CONNECT TO "sa" IDENTIFIED BY "sa" USING 'dg4msql';
when I give select statement, It gives following error:
select * from "Employees"@dg4
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

I will appreciate if anyone can help me

The general DG4MSQL configuration is correct as DG4MSQL is loaded and tries to connect to the SQL Server.
Is the IP Address and the SQl Server port (HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=172.16.30.51:1433//Northwind) correct?
Can you ping it from the Oracle gateway machine?
Can you telnet to it from the gateway machine to the SQl Server: "telnet 172.16.30.51 1433"

Error with decimal value using DG4MSQL

Hello,
when i make an update on a numeric column [numeric(38,15)] of a database table residing on a MS-SQL-Server 2005 it works fine when the value has no decimal part:
declare
v_test1 number := 1;
begin
update CUSTOMER@DBL_MSSQL4 set "freenumber1" = v_test1;
commit;
end;
/But if i use a value with a decimal part it gets an error
declare
v_test1 number := 1.2;
begin
update CUSTOMER@DBL_MSSQL4 set "freenumber1" = v_test1;
commit;
end;

Problem connection to SQL Server using DG4MSQL gateway.

I am getting the following error trying to use a SQL gateway on Windows platforms:
TNSPing seems fine (which seems like listener is fine).
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent

The dg4msql gateway (32 bit box, 11.2.0) exists on a separate machine from the 64 bit Oracle database (10.2.0.4)

Cannot query MSSQL system tables over db link created using DG4MSQL

I am trying to create db link from Oracle 11g to SQL Server 2005 using DG4MSQL gateway. After creating db link I am not able to query MSSQL system views(sys.services or sys.objects) using JDBC driver. But I am able to query all user tables using JDBC driver. But if I use sqlplus, I am able to query all tables including system tables. Since my project is Java project, I am bound to use JDBC driver. One more observation I made is that, if I use DG4ODBC instead of DG4MSQL gateway, then I am able to query all MSSQL tables including system tables uding JDBC driver. Please let me know if there are any ways I can query MSSQL system tables using DG4MSQL and JDBC driver.
Edited by: user13398705 on Dec 20, 2011 2:08 AM

There's a bug in the JDBC driver and for 11.2.0.1 a fix is available on my Oracle Support -> look for fix 9496068 - it is a generic platform fix. According to the bug matrix this fix is also included in the 11.2.0.3 JDBC driver. Are you using this JDBC driver version?

Problems using dg4msql

Hi,
I am trying to connect Oracle 10g (v.10.2.0.2.0) to MS SQL Server 2008. Oracle is installed on SUSE Linux Enterprise Server x86 and MSSQL Server has installed on Win Server 2003.
Oracle database is 32-bit, and there is istalled Oracle Database Gateways (c. 11.2.0.1.0).
When I try use tnsping referencing SQLServer (dg4msql) returns TNS-12541: no listener.

Hi,
Your configuration does not look correct.
You say you are trying to connect from 10.2.0.2 to SQL*Server using Dg4MSQL 11.2.0.1.
However, the information in the listener.ora shows you have installed the 11g gateway into the 10.2 ORACLE_HOME -
(SID_DESC=
(SID_NAME= dg4msql)
(ORACLE_HOME=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1)
(ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/dg4msql/driver/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1/lib)
(PROGRAM= dg4msql)
This is not correct. The 11.2 gateway should be installed into a completely separate ORACLE_HOME from the 10.2 install.
If you already had a 10.2 RDBMS in the OH /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 then you need to do the following -
- restore the OH /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 to the point it was before you installed the 11.2 gateway into that OH.
- install 11.2 DG4MSQL into a completely separate OH and create the gateway listener.ora from that OH
- the tnsnames.ora entry in the 10.2 OH then needs to point to the new gateway listener.
Also, to use a 11.2 gateway from a 10.2 RDBMS the RDBMS needs to be at version 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 as these versions include a compulsory compatibility patch.
If you did not have a 10.2 RDBMS in /u01/app/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1 before you made the gateway install then check the following -
- is the gateway listener started ? What is the output from -
lsnrctl start
lsnrctl status
- is host 192.168.0.15 the same as db-oracle-old ?
Regards,
Mike

Notes:
1. When i put the cursor before "variable" (starting of the query) and execute the script i get an Error: ORA-00900: invalid SQL statement.
2. When i put the cursor just before "SELECT" i get a pop up.
a. it is a Toad window which displays the available variables (in this case :SYSDATE_UTS).
b. gives me a dropdown option to select the type (by default VARCHAR2 is selected).
c. there is a value field where i need to enter the value for the Variable.
d. the SQL statement shown in this dilog box does not include the 1st 2 lines
variable SYSDATE_UTS NUMBER;
exec SYSDATE_UTS := (sysdate-to_date('19700101','yyyymmdd'))*86400;
Q: is there something wrong in the syntax i am using?
Sven W. - I have been using your method all these days, which works just fine. i wanted to know how i could use a variable instead.
Business Requirement - My whole intent is to calculate the Age of an incident (Difference between "Reported Date" and current date) and to assign Age Groups (0-1 Days, 2-4 Days,....,20+ Days).

Can we use different Databases (Oracle & SQL Server) in one report?

Post Author: venki5star
CA Forum: .NET
Hi there.
Can we use different databases (Oracle & SQL Server) in a same report?
If possible how?
Another question,
Can we change the Provider Name at runtime of the given report. If so the above question is useless...
Thanks in Advance.

I tried this using Oracle Provider for OLEDB (the one that supplied by Oracle Client) and Crystal Reports 9. you can drag the column into designer but the image does not appear in preview.
I guess it's because CR does not recognized it as image, and there are no information that the blob data is an image at all.

Using Coherence and Oracle Database as the CacheStore

We are working on implementing a solution using Coherence and Oracle Database as the CacheStore. We initially implemented the Cache as a distributed-scheme which in turn uses the backing-map-scheme. We are trying to introduce transaction management and I used a scheme-ref in a transactional-scheme to point to an already existing distributed-scheme. However when I bring up the server, my custom coherence-cache-config.xml file is not recognized and Coherence comes up with the default setting. Given below is the snippet of my configuration file.
1)     I would like to understand why the below configuration doesn’t work and am I doing it the right way? If not, what is the correct way of doing it?
2)     There are a multiple transaction management options given in the documentation. Which are the ones that will work with a distributed-scheme and read-write-backing-map-scheme?
3)     If transactional-schemes cannot work with distributed-scheme, what is the best way to have a distributed cache with a oracle database as a cache store?

Hi,
If you look at the documentation for transactional-scheme here: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E24290_01/coh.371/e22837/appendix_cacheconfig.htm#BHCIABHA
you will see that it says The transactional-scheme element defines a transactional cache, which is a specialized distributed cache. That means that a transactional-scheme is already a distributed-scheme.
You will see from the same documentation above that there is no way in a transactional-scheme to configure things like cache-stores or listeners or even the backing-map-scheme as these are not supported on a transactional-scheme - so you cannot use a cache store.
Personally I would not use transactional-scheme unless you have some really big reason to do so - the restrictions far outweigh any perceived advantage of having a transaction. There are better ways to build applications so they do not require transactions, that is what we have been doing for years with Coherence so far, and there is no real reason to change that.

How to copy file to another server from database using FTP in oracle

How to copy file to another server from database using FTP in oracle.
Please do the needfaul.

Not to mention that some FTP servers can return more than one return message per operation whereas others may return one message for the same operation.I had the problem using the LIST command to determine if a file exists on the server. Cannot be determined via the FTP server's return code. Which means parsing and checking the text response from the server to the command. And this vary from server to server.
But the basics were quite easy to code. The entire package is 500 lines, includes comments and blank lines for formatting, and supports the basic FTP client command set. Not really a complex piece of software to write - but I found that many developers seem to think that writing network socket software is complex. Not really the case...Mine's a big larger, but incorporates functionality similar to what Chris provided in his, such as being able to use SQL to query a remote file using pipelined functions, or functionality to write the results of a query directly to a remove file.

Using vba in Oracle Forms 6i

Hello
I'm working with Oracle Forms 6i and I need to check if a certain folder exists before I make an action, I think there's no way to do it with Oracle Forms only, so I tough doing it with vba.
Is there some controller that allow me to use vba in Oracle Forms? Or maybe I can do this another way.
Thanks

You can use this piece of code to check if a directory exists:
declare
l_hostcommand varchar2(1000);
l_dir          varchar2(200) := 'f:\oracle';
begin
l_hostcommand := 'cmd /c if not exist '||l_dir||' exit 100';
host(l_hostcommand, no_screen);
if form_success then
    message('Directory found');
else
    message('Directory not found');
end if;
end;   If you have no drive mapping, just use UNC (\\server\oracle).

Thanks you in advance for your answers.Looking at the 8.1.7 doc set (the oldest available on tahiti) I get no hits when searching for 'dict_from_online_catalog'. Searching the 9.2 doc set turns up a reference. Looks like you are trying to use an option that isn't available in your version of Oracle.

Using variables in Oracle

Hi,
I am using java and oracle and I want to know the way to achieve the "user-defined variables" functionality of mysql
[http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/4.1/en/user-variables.html]
Basically I want my update query/PL-SQL block to first define a variable and then refer it multiple times in the query.I also want to return the number of updated rows to my application code in java
I saw DEFINE variable,bind variables etc,but dont know what exactly should I use
Thanks in advance
Ananth

I am looking to use the variables in the query
itself.
Ex: select @t1:=100,@t2:=@t1+10 from tbl_name where
col_name > @t1 and col_name < @t2
[This is a simple ex.I want to use current timestamp
instead of 100 as first variable's value]
Also,as I have mentioned,I need to use these in
update statements also and return the no. of updated
rows to java codeUse Declare on the beginning of a PL/SQL block to declare variable names and types. Then just use them in the code (including update statements) without any prefix (@ is not needed in oracle). As a clear difference from MySQL, you don't need to use select to set a variable value if it does not depend on a query, just use the := operator. To read values from a query into variables, use "select ... into" syntax.
