Use of 10g libclntsh.so with 11g database

Does anyone have any experience using a 10g pro*c library like libclntsh.so with an 11g database? In testing, it failed looking for libclntsh.so.10.1 but we were able to fix it with a link like such:
ln -s libclntsh.so.11.1 libclntsh.so
We are not in a position to recompile and link with the new 11g library, but want confidence the 10g library will work after a 10g->11g upgrade.
Any ideas?
thanks,
rick

Hi Rick,
If I understand you correctly you have an executable that was built with Pro*C and linked to a 10g version of the client shared library (libclntsh), correct? That library is not specific to Pro*C, but is used as you have obviously discovered!
Now you want to use that executable (with no relink) on a server that does not have a 10g version of the library, but only has the 11g version, correct?
I realize this may not be super helpful, but I have done what you describe (soft link) a couple of times in a test environment, but never long-term. I did not experience any issues with the test environment, but I suppose you could open an SR with Oracle to verify if that is a supported activity.

Using older client 10201 with 11g database

Hello,
Are there any issues with using sqlplus client 10201 with 11g database with regard to performance? I would think using the 11g client with 11g database would be preferred but what would be the disadvantage in using sqlplus 10201 with 11g database?
Also, what would be disadvantage if using sqlplus 11g with an older database 10201/10202? Thank you.

I guess the most visible and the prominent issue of using an old version client with the more latest version db would be that the older version client won't be able to display/use some of the newest features. This sounds more like a usability issue than performance issue which you mentioned but that's what which came on top of the mind. Performance should not be affected as the client doesn' do much except to pull the data so if there would be any issues actualy , they would be with the server rather than the client.
Just my 2 cents.

ORA-06553: PLS-908 when calling 10g remote procedure from 11g database

Hi,
I have 2 instances: 11g (11.1.0.7) and 10g (10.2.0.4). When I try to call 10g (remote) procedure from 11g database, there is errors:
ORA-04052: error occurred when looking up remote object CUSTOMER.PRL_PK2_GENERAL@CUSTOMER_LINK
ORA-06541: PL/SQL: compilation error - compilation aborted
ORA-06553: PLS-908: The stored format ofCUSTOMER.PRL_PK2_GENERAL@CUSTOMER_LINK is not supported...
But, if I call the same procedure from another 10g instance, it's OK.
How can I fix the problem?
Thx,
qtpham

As you can see ,it seems like the workaround that was mentioned there is currently the only way to remove this ORA.
Workaround: Remove the function call(s) from the called subroutine's

Forms 10g Builder with 11g Database Release 1 - Connectivity Problems

Hello All,
I am trying to connect 11g Database (Version 11.1.0.7.0 mounted on Linux) from my Oracle Forms 10g Builder 10.1.2.0.2 in my client PC Windodws XP. But its just hanging and doesnt connects at all.
Strange is that from the same Oracle home i am able to connect to same 11g user through the reports builder 10g and
, sqlplusw and sqlplus from 10g home.
But i am not able to connect to 11g R1 database from my Forms Builder alone. Why is this? Can the PROs get me out of this problem please.
Thanks in advance.

First, using 10.1.2.0 against 11.x is not recommended. You should at least be using 10.1.2.3 if you plan to work with 11.x. Further, there is a known issue which causes connection, compilation, and some sql execution to run significantly slowly. This issue has been corrected with a patch and new switch. If you have an active Support contact, I would recommend creating a Service Request in order to get the latest information.

Oracle Discoverer 4i (portal db - oracle 8i) connectivity issue with 11g database

Hi All
We have oracle discoverer 4i with portal db (oracle 8i).
We connect to the external databases using db links in the portal db and the reports will use the db link to retrieve the data from views in the external databases.
External databases we were connecting is oracle 10g version and now we have upgraded these databases to 11g version.
Now i have a created a new db link to this 11g database and i have created a new EUL in portal to connect to this 11g database.
But when i try to create a report using the discoverer from this new EUL after login to the discoverer we get a "cannot connect to database" error.
We have all the necesscary privilege to the user and the new database link works perfectly fine. (when we try to query directly using SQL plus from portal database using this db link the query works perfectly fine).
Im not sure if this is a compatibility issue in connecting from oracle disc 4i to a 11g database.
Can any one advise if this is the case and if there is any workaround for this?
Regards,
Raj

Are you saying you are having issues with a database link between 8i and 11g (pl post exact versions to 4 digits) ? If so, it should be expected as database links between these two versions are not supported. Is there a reason you cannot upgrade the portal database to at least 10gR2 ?

Importing a few Oracle 10g schemas into oracle 11g database

Hi,
I have the task to import a few schemas that are on oracle 10g database (10.2.0.4) into oracle 11gR2 database (11.2.0.2). Now I have only oracle 10g export and import utility (the 11g server is in not where I am given the import rights).
Can I do the export of the 10g schemas using the 10g export utility and then import into 11g database using the 10g import utility? I ran a test to do that and found it works but would also like to have expert opinion on it.
Also another question is: if the source schema is 11g - suppose- in that case can the 10g export/import utility still work? I mean export the schema from say db1 (which is 11g) using 10g export utility and import them into 11g database db2 (which is again 11g) using 10g import? I am asking because I don't have access to 11g server and trying to find what I can do with the 10g utilities.
Thanks,

set up a database link to the 10gR2 version database in the 11gR2 database.
Now using the 11gR2 client impdp utility use
impdp network_link=<link to 10gR2 database>
Done.
Your 'objection' you don't have access to 11gR2 doesn't count as you can install a 11gR2 client.
Also generally speaking you should not use a lower version imp to imp to a higher version database
Also exp and imp are deprecated in 10g and higher.

OC4J installed with 11g Database

We are migrating our database and applications to 11g database and imbeded Application Express. Our current configuration is 10g database and JSPs running under the OC4J installed with the database. Our develoment server is running Windows XP and currently has 11g database 11.1.0.6.0 installed, and the Application Express configured and running properly.
In order to provide a smooth transiition from OC4J to Application Express, we would like to continue to run some applications under the OC4J installed with the 11g database, and the converted applications in Application Express, all on the same server and same 11g database installation.
I have started the OC4J processes on the development server with the script:
cd \Oracle\Ora11g\Ora11gDB\oc4j\j2ee\home
java -jar oc4j.jar
and the system responds with:
09/01/08 10:53:29 Oracle Containers for J2EE 10g (10.1.3.0.0) initialized
However, when I try to bring up the console from a browser using:
http://192.168.0.200:8888
I get a the message that the page cannot be displayed.
I understand the 11g OC4J standalone has been discontinued, however it looks like the 11g version I have installed is using the OC4J 10.1.3.0.0.
So is the OC4J installed with 11g not functional, or am I missing a step in the startup/configuration, or URL call.
Thanks,
Rod

Thanks for the replay Michael,
Actually, on the development server I only have the 11g database installed with Application Express configured. The Apex runs on port 8080 and I see that in the netstat -ab listing, but I do not see port 8888 referenced anywhere. All the config files for the OC4J are standard from the db install. The port listed in the http-web-site.xml still shows 8888.
Is it possible that the OC4J is not completing it's startup?
The server.log, and the system-applicaiton.log both show entries indicating it has started, and the global-application.log shows it is started, however the defaultWebApp is not currently started. Here is the complete contents of that file:

Is OWB 11.1 compatible with 11g database cubes/dimensions

I heard OWB 11.1 stores data in 10g format and it is not compatible with 11g format. However AWM 11.1 creates 11g compatible data. Is it true? Any idea?
thanks

Hi
That is correct, the OWB 10gR2 and 11gR1 releases both generate OLAP 10g style cubes using the AWXML api. AWM 11.1 can create/administer both 10g and 11g styles cubes. Needless to say, it takes a little time to catch up with an ever changing API....plenty of fun stuff to come ;-)

Installing 10.1.3.1 (want to upgrade to 10.1.3.4) with 11g Database

I want to install SOA Suite 10.1.3.4 on a new laptop I have. I have ins
I checked the certification matrix and saw that SOA Suite was certified with 11.0.6 version of the Database so I installed the 11g database no problem and went to install the SOA SUite 10.1.3.1 last night (would then patch up to 10.1.3.4 afterwards).
I choose Advanced Install, as I want to put the schemas in my 11g database but when I put in my connection details for the DB a window pops up saying that it must be installed on the correct version of the DB, it lists a load of them but 11g is not one of them (10.2 series was the highest).
So 10.1.3.4 is certified with 11g but you can do the base install on 11g, Is this correct?
Are there any workarounds?
I assume one option is to do a Standard Install where it creates the XE database, then patch up to 10.1.3.4.
Then some how point everthing to my 11g DB afterwards.
Any ideas?
Stuart

just found the solution. One needs to follow patch instructions 6265268 even before starting installation to replace the relevant jar files in the installable.
Also, refer to metalink note 605489.1

Can I use existing 10g iAS install with Application Express?

I apologize if this has been addressed somewhere else, but I haven't been able to find a definitive answer yet.
I have a 10g DB installed on machine A, and have been following the instructions to install Application Express. Instead of installing another instance of HTTP_Server (from the companion CD) on machine A, I have machine B with a full 10g iAS install on it (discoverer, portal, infrastructure, etc). I would like to use machine B as the front end to access htmldb. Machine B has 2 oracle homes, one for the infrastructure and one for the BI tools/portal stuff. Which one do I configure for htmldb? From reading in this forum I think I can use the dads.conf file instead of the marvel.conf file (which doesn't exist) to add the pls/htmldb info, but I can't figure out which one to edit. I probably have something else wrong somewhere, but this would help narrow things down. Currently when I go to the following url http://machineb:7778/pls/htmldb I get "503 Service Temporarily Unavailable".
Thanks in advance for any help.
Rhonda

Sure, you can use the Application Server, no need to install another one.
You would add the configuration to the BI tools/portal stuff Oracle Home, not the infrastructure.
You don't need the marvel.conf explicitly (but this is installed per default when you install the http server from the 10g companion CD).
You could just add the DAD configuration to the dads.conf.
To make it a bit simpler I would do the following:
1) remove the entries for /pls/htmldb from your current dads.conf (if they exist).
2) follow the instructions here: http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/database/application_express/howtos/howto_useoas10g.html
And use the following for the contents of the file marvel.conf (make sure to change it accordingly for your environment (changes to make are bold):
AddType text/xml xbl
AddType text/x-component htc
Alias /i/ /home/oracle/oracle/product/10.2.0/db/htmldb/images/
