Using Oracle 8i db with creator

Hi there, could someone please help me, I'm trying to use an 8i database, I added an 8i driver to creator, I can see the tables in creator and run queries but as soon as I try to bind it to a control it gives an error. The program works fine if I use a 9i db.
Here is my databse url: jdbc:oracle:thin:@mp1hs022:1521:DFM1
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hi,
Could you please tell us what is the error you are getting? Also what is the control to which you are trying to bind. That would help us in understanding the problem better.
Cheers

Can I use Oracle app server with mysql

Can I use Oracle app server with mysql. I seem to have the following error when trying to create a datastore. I have mysql.jar in my classpath. Can any one tell me what's wrong.
Error initializing data-source 'jdbc/topup': DriverManagerDataSource driver 'org.gjt.mm.mysql.Driver' not found

Yes you can forward requests from your own apache to the iAS. This can be done using mod_proxy. Some hints about how to do this are availlable on this forum.
mod_oc4j is not a standard apache module, and therefore is not availlable when you download apache. There is no apparent reason to use mod_oc4j on a "regular" webserver (unless you want to build your own iAS). Also there might be some licenseing issues with using mod_oc4j module on a standard apache.
You can encrypt data that is passed from a random Apache to you iAS.

Workaround for using Oracle JDBC extension with WLS pooling

Reading the newsgroup I saw that many of us encountered the problems
with ClassCastException when tried to use Oracle JDBC extension
with WLS pooling. I also had.
In this case BEA recommends to use dangerous
method getVendorConnection() which exposes
the physical connection object to your code.
Yes it's really dangerous because of unsafe usage may breaks
WLS pooled connection(s).
Moreover, this practice will make your JDBC code
unportable (your JDBC code in addition to Oracle dependence
became Weblogic dependent):
void doSmth() {
Connection con = ...;
Connection vCon = ((WLConnection)con).getVendorConnection();
// + mess of usage con in one places and vCon in others
// (where Oracle extensions are needed)
// !Don't forget to don't close vCon!
Sux.
I found the workaround.
Introduction
============
Yes the real cause of ClassCastException is that
in depth of Oracle driver the casting
to class oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleConnection
(not to interface oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection)
is performed.
Someone can say that this is bug or pure desing.
Weblogic pooled connection provide dynamic
implementation for all public interfaces
which real physical (wrapped) connection object implements.
Great feature!
But I guess that all interface methods implemented
by simple call-delegation to physical (wrapped) connection object.
In case of oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection interface
this approach doesn't work for at least one its method:
public OracleConnection unwrap()
WLS pooled connection shoudn't implement this method by
delegation to physical connection object BUT should
return physical connection object itself!
// Wrong implementation of unwrap()
// delegation is used
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return physicalConnection.unwrap();
// Right implementation of unwrap()
// physical connection returned
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return physicalConnection;
Workaround
==========
1. Develop your own OracleConnection wrapper class:
import oracle.jdbc.OracleConnection;
import weblogic.jdbc.extensions.WLConnection;
public class MyOracleConnectionImpl implements OracleConnection {
private OracleConnection con;
public MyOracleConnectionImpl(OracleConnection connection)
throws SQLException
this.con = connection;
public OracleConnection unwrap() {
return (OracleConnection)
((WLConnection)con).getVendorConnection();
/* Implement all other methods by delegation to con object */
2. Don't get Connections directly from DataSource --
develop your own simple (may be static) utility
class which retrives Connections from dataSource
and returns them wrapped into your MyOracleConnectionImpl
to your code from some method:
puclic abstract class MyConnectionSource {
public static Connection getConnection() {
Connection con = // get it from DataSource
return new MyOracleConnectionImpl((OracleConnection)con);
3. Add attribute RemoveInfectedConnectionsEnabled="false"
to definition of your JDBCConnectionPool within config.xml
You may do it because of you `safely` use vendorConnection --
you don't expose it to application code.
4. Enjoy the Oracle JDBC extensions in your code!
Example:
Connection con = MyConnectionSource.getConnection;
ArrayDescriptor add =
ArrayDescriptor.createDescriptor("your_type", con);
Hope it helps to someone.

Hello Eugene Voytitsky,
Thanks Eugene Voytitsky for your idea
I have tried the solution suggested by You, but it did not work.
It still throws ClassCastException.
I am sorry for posting the whole code of two classes below.
I did this to give you more clarity.
I am also indicating the place where the exception was thrown..
Please let me know if I am doing something wrong.

Advantages and Disadvantages of Using Oracle 7 Client with Oracle 9 Server

Hello,
I was wondering what are the advanatges of using Oracle 7 client with Oracle 9 Server versus using Oracle 9 Client with Oracle 9 server.

Some years ago I used 7.3 Client with 9i DB, and I don't remember of particular problems, but I'm speaking of Sql*Plus only. Are there specific problems ?
Of course the best thing is to install one 9i Client (did you already do it ?) : if there are same problems, then that's not compatibility issue.
And what are advantages of using 9 Client with 9 server other than 7 is no longer supported.You're sure you won't have compatibility problems.

Is it possible to use Ajax4Jsf or AjaxAnywhere with Creator applications?

Hi Igor,
How do the Sun's UI tag fit in Exadel studio? Right no the custom tags are not rendering during design time in Exadel. Do Exadel have the same features that are given in SunStudio and My Eclipse?
What addition and what not? I know you are the VP involved in active campaign in various news groups like Serverside.com, Java and Eclipse forums.
Exadel is not having right AJAX examples in the website. Intellij has given some good AJAX Demos

Is it possible to use Oracle Forms 10g with Oracle 10g Lite Database?

Hi All,
We are in process of migrating our forms from 6i to 10g environment.
We have two kinds of applications, one set run on general Oracle 11g database and the other set of forms run at the client machine using Oracle lite database.
We dont have any problem with Forms 6i to connect to Lite database as it allows to connect through ODBC:DSN names. When we try to connect to a lite database (10gR3) from Forms 10g through ODBC/DSN, it's not allowing and throwing the below error.
ORA-03121 : no interface driver connected - function not performed
Can someone tell me if there is something wrong in our approach? Also advise how to use Oracle Lite database with Forms 10G.
Sincerely,
Praveen Manthena

Hi,
I have experience with 6i with lite database 10g. There are two version of lite database one is multi language support and other one in english. There lang problem in connectivity with multi language 10g lite database. I done connectivity with single language connectivity of 6i with 10g lite database. You should try this one with forms 10g.

Is it possible to use Oracle Memebership Providers with Oracle Express

I am using Oracle Express as development database and I was able to create the ORA_ASPNET_ tables and procedures but when I try to use Microsofts "ASP .NET Configuration" tool to create users and roles I get this error message: OracleConnection.ConnectionString is invalid
When I use the connection string in code to connect to the database I am successful, I am able to open and close a connection to the Oracle Express database.
This is the connection string I am using: <add name="OraAspNetConString2" connectionString="DATA SOURCE=localhost:1521/XE;ENLIST=false;METADATA POOLING=False;PASSWORD=CREDENTIALSMGR;PERSIST SECURITY INFO=True;STATEMENT CACHE PURGE=True;USER ID=CREDENTIALSMGR;" providerName="Oracle.DataAccess.Client"/>
So I am wondering why when I run the application and the membership class tries to verify the user I get the error message: OracleConnection.ConnectionString is invalid
I have been looking at this a couple of days now so not sure what the problem is, any help?

I suggest that update your machine.config file under your
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\CONFIG.
There is one following entry. You may try to update the
connectionString with a valid string value.
<add name="OraAspNetConString" connectionString=" " />

Using oracle thin driver with to_char gives invalid column name

select x,y,z, to_char(event_time,'YYYY-MMM-DD') from eventtable;
if i execute the above query using oracle thin driver it gives me invalid column name. It works fine if i use weblogic driver. So what could be the problem ???
thanks.

Sorry , forgot to add that 'YYYY-MM-DD' or 'YYYY-Month-DD' or 'Year-MM-DD' or 'Year-Month-DD' are also allowed(please cheek also for other combinations), not 'YYYY-MMM-DD'.
Thanks

How to use oracle thin driver with jsp?...pls help

Hello. I am trying to insert a word file into my Oracle 9i database using JSP. I have tomcat running as my standalone server. So far, i have been using the sun.jdbc.odbc driver to implement all my DB accesses. Recently however, i found out that in order to use Oracle specific objects such as BLOBS or BFILES, i have to use the oracle thin driver or OCI driver.
So far, i have downloaded the thin driver and put it into the tomcat shared/common folder and also put the .jar file into my classpath. Now, i am having trouble as to how to call the oracle thin driver inside my JSP code.
My previous code read as:
Class.forName("sun.jdbc.odbc.JdbcOdbcDriver");
Connection con = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:odbc:Andy","user","pass");
How do i switch over to the oracle thin driver in JSP? Any help would be much appreciated. Thank you
Andrew

my code is:
DriverManager.registerDriver(new oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver());
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(sConnStr, sUser, sPassword);
notice the driver --"oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"!
and copy the class12.zip to lib path
if still not work
change the class12.zip to class12.jar
good luck

Using oracle in combination with the mean-stack

Hi all,
I have been exploring the mean stack and saw the oracle-nodejs-passing by.
I am wondering what the best way is to replace/combine the mongodb with an oracle db (11g).
At this moment I have tried using mongoose for schema's and an json to XML parser to retrieve an xml-representation of the object I want to save.
To do some dml in the db I created some procedures which uses the xmltype in combination with xquery to update/insert.
Although it is working I am wondering this is the way to go. What are your experiences?
Regards,
Romano

The way to go is to use node-oracledb with Oracle 12.1.0.2 JSON datatype support: http://docs.oracle.com/database/121/ADXDB/json.htm
However, since you are still on 11g, using stored procedures to encapsulate logic seems like a good start.
You'll lose some performance using any ORM: do you really need one?

Using Oracle thin driver with Weblogic 6.1

your url should be
jdbc:oracle:thin:@127.0.0.1:1521:ORC1
notice the ':' before the '@'.

Hi Sree,
You have to place the classes11.zip file in the beginning of the classpath.i did it. my CLASSPATH is now
CLASSPATH=c:\orant\jdbc\lib\classes111.zip;.;.\lib\weblogic_sp.jar;.\lib\web
logic.jar;.\samples\eval\cloudscape\lib\cloudscape.jar;.\config\examples\ser

But now, when i assign the target, the exception is:

Using Oracle Analytical Workspace With Excel

Hi i have created an analytical workspace on Oracle Analytical Workspace, Now suppose i want to access this workspace from Excel , is this possible ?? If so How

Hi,
I understand there are three Oracle plug-ins for Excel: OLAP, OBIEE, and Essbase. I presume the plug-in you are using is the OLAP plug-in, which only works with Oracle 10g or earlier. Starting in Oracle 11g, however, Oracle recommends you use the Simba MDX Provider for Oracle OLAP (http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/036550 and http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/press/173668).
If you use the MDX Provider, your application can connect directly to the Oracle OLAP cube. Since you are using Excel, your users don't need to connect through Oracle, and you do not need to manipulate the retrieved data before displaying it. Excel and its PivotTables will generate MDX queries against the Oracle database through the MDX Provider, so you don't need to use any plug-ins or APIs. This means you don't need to learn any new menus or APIs -- you just use native Excel functionality. Furthermore, your data is coming live from the Oracle database. Each time you open your workboook, you refresh your data with the Data -> Refresh button, and your spreadsheet data is current, not a stale copy.
Please let me know if I am missing something in your requirements. Feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions or concerns.
Mike

Trying to use Oracle Label Security with a XMLType

Hi everybody.
I'm trying to apply some of the Oracle Label Security functionalities to a table created from the annotations of a XML Schema
(Below I show part of this XML Schema:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<xs:schema xmlns:xdb="http://xmlns.oracle.com/xdb"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
elementFormDefault="qualified"
attributeFormDefault="unqualified">
<xs:element name="FILE_INFO" xdb:SQLType="FILE_INFO" xdb:defaultTable="TABLE_FILE_INFO">
<xs:complexType>
<xs:choice>
<xs:element name="FILE_INFO_DICOM"
type="FILE_INFO_DICOM_TYPE" />
<xs:element name="FILE_INFO_ANALYZE"
type="FILE_INFO_ANALYZE_TYPE" />
</xs:choice>
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
<xs:complexType name="FILE_INFO_DICOM_TYPE" xdb:SQLType="FILE_INFO_DICOM_TYPE">

xdb:defaultTable="TABLE_ELEMENT_INFO_DICOM"
xdb:SQLInline ="false"/>
</xs:sequence>
</xs:complexType>
<xs:complexType name="ELEMENT_INFO_DICOM_TYPE" xdb:SQLType="ELEMENT_INFO_DICOM_TYPE">
<xs:all>
<xs:element name="Description" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1" />

<xs:element name="VR" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
<xs:element name="Value" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="1"/>
</xs:all>
</xs:complexType>
................etc
I've created a security policy that I have tested on relational tables (not based on any object type) and works correctly.
BEGIN
SA_POLICY_ADMIN.APPLY_TABLE_POLICY(policy_name => 'policy1',
schema_name => 'oe',
table_name => 'TABLE_FILE_INFO',
table_options => 'LABEL_DEFAULT, READ_CONTROL, WRITE_CONTROL',
label_function => NULL,
predicate => NULL);
END;
When I try to apply this policy to the XMLSchema-created table (TABLE_FILE_INFO) I get next error messages:
ORA-22856: cannot add columns to object tables
ORA-00604 error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-12445: cannot change HIDDEN property of column.
ORA-06512: in "LBACSYS.LBAC_POLICY_ADMIN", line 257
ORA-06512: in line 2
I suppose that the main problem is that the apply_plicy procedure is trying to add an extra column to a table created from a defined type.
So my questions are: It's that true? Is it possible to apply a policy to the content of XML documents, I mean, if I want to restrict that some users see some subset of a XML document based on a specific policy, is there anything similar to Oracle Label security for XML? (as defined with the annotations in the XML Schema, some elements will be mapped to rows of a XMLType-based table when a XML document is inserted into the XMLDB repository (marked to follow the previous XML Schema of course)
Hope someone can help to solve my doubts...
Thanks,
Marcos.

Have you ever answered this question? If not, have you tried to use the "HIDE" property on your table_options?
