Weird 8i connect problems

I've just installed 8i on a new RedHat 6.0 system (with all
RedHat patches) and other than the known problems of 0-byte
libraries and missing dmbssml.sql file, I'm having a very strange
problem with outside connections to the database.
I'm using JDBC from other machines, and using the JDBC classes
included with the 8i installation, Java apps will connect to the
database successfully twice, then fail twice, then succeed twice,
then fail twice, and so on.
Trying to connect to 8i from my other Linux box with 805SE
installed using sqlplus causes sqlplus to Segfault and leave a
core file.
null

I dont use JDBC so I dont know about the JDBC problems, but I
have tried to connect from another Linux box with 850SE and
sqlplus segfaulted, just like you expereienced. Also connecting
from the 8i box to 805SE sqlplus just hangs. Same behaviour with
imp/exp.
These are some of the dozens of problems reported by others here.
I am going back to 805SE after wasting alot of energy with 8i.
However, making 805SE work with RedHat 6.0 is proving to be
a trying experience. It worked fine with RedHat 5.2. I did
read the README and applied all the necessary patches and
installed the compat RPMS. But I do admit that I gave up a
little too early. I'll try again later tonight.
I have been severely burnt by the current release of 8i for
Linux. Therefore do feel the need to vent my steam whenever I
see others running into the same problems as I and finding no
solutions.

Weird ethernet connection problem

Hello
I have a really weird connection problem. I am not a complete beginner but I just don't see what's going on.
I just had BT infinity 4 installed with the modem placed in a closet. I then had cat6 cables installed by an electrician between the closet and the different rooms, all wall sockets on each end.
Test1: If I connect to the BT Home Hub wirelessly it works.
Test2: If I connect to the BT Home Hub via ethernet directly to the device it works.
Test3: If I connect to the BT Home Hub via ethernet through the wall sockets directly it works.
Test4: If I connect a switch (a DLink DGS-1210) to the wall sockets and I connect through the switch I do not get connectivity. I can however access the switch's web interface or other computers connected to the switch. But I cannot connect to 192.168.1.254 for instance.
Test5: if I connect one switch to each end of the wall socket, I can access the web interface of the other switch through one switch.
Test6: if I connect a switch directly to the BT Home Hub, and I connect through the switch it doesn't work.
The switch test the cables which are fine, I see no collision in the switch port monitoring, and I have the same problem with all sockets. So I do not think that the wiring of the electrician itself is a problem (otherwise Test3 & Test5 would fail).
This gives me the feeling that the BT Home Hub (BT Home Hub 5) is the cause of my worries but I can't think of a logical explaination of why the Home Hub would behave differently whether it's connected directly rather than through a switch. Also these are rather high-end switches, which have always worked very well and I do not believe that both would fail simultaneously.
Has anyone experienced anything similar?
thanks
Charles

The switch by any chance has not got some form of dhcp set up. Maybe allocating ip addresses to devices on your network as well as the home hub. I had similar issue when I had connected a linksys ata onto my network, rather than use the socket labeled network I used the one labeled ethernet.

Weird Slow Connectivity Problem

Hi guys
We are facing a slow connection problem and we cant seem to find an answer
as to whats happening.
Our application has
1. An app server hosting EJBs , datasources etc
2. A webserver on different box hosting servlets and command classes.
3.A Sql server 7 database on a different box.
All these boxes are on a secured network ; which means that access to them
is given on a requirement basis.
We have JSPs on the web box which get a datasource connection from the app
box to run queries against the database server.Our problem is that even to
run a very simple query ; it takes a long long time (in order of minutes)
and the same query runs lightening fast in the test environment where all
the boxes are on the same network.
We use type 4 SQL driver.We initially thought that this could be a network
problem as it doesnt make sense that the same query runs very fast on the
test boxes.But the network settings seem ok.
The network settings are this way :
Appserver box has access to database server box.
Webserver box has access to Appserver box.
So you can see that webserver doesnt have direct access to database
server.Is it needed to run queries ; since I am taking a connection from the
appserver.How does the whole business of running queries work when I take a
connection from a datasource on an app server.
I had this question posted to the BEA weblogic customer support ; but they
really couldnt help me.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks

This has many possible troubleshooting paths. You don't mention if this is a workgroup or domain based Windows network. Checking the "Directory Access" settings as appropriate may yield the solution.
If this is a domain/active directory network the issue may lay with the machine account on the domain server.
Create a new user account on the Mac and see if the problem follows when you log in to that account and try to access the SMB share.
If the problem goes away, then you should look at the original user's startup items to see what might be launching at startup or simply move all files to the new user and delete the old account (not the preferred method).
If the problem persists with a second user on the same machine, then I'd take another Mac, boot it to target disk mode (laptop is good for this), using a firewire cable, boot the troublesome mac to the target mac and try to replicate the issue.
If issue persists, this is a network permissions issue on the server, if it goes away it is a local software issue on the Mac and a clean install of the OS may be needed if you can't locate the meddlesome settings/software.

I hope someone has a solution. Thanks
Jacob

I have had this same issue for probably two months now. Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 8 I have not been able to get on the iTunes store. The progress bar will go half way and then stop. Sometimes it will take me to a page on the iTunes store, but it will be in html or text format with no pictures. It takes at least five minutes for it to open one of those pages. I have run diagnostics and I get the same results as you; everything is successful. I have also flushed the dns settings and disabled all virus protection. Absolutely nothing works. Are you getting the pages that I described above or an error message at all?
Thanks

Weird Internet Connection Problem

I did a couple of mac updates yesterday (itunes, system stability update, quicktime, safari 4, ect. I am using 10.5.7 Leopard)
Now my internet is extremely slow. I have tried everything from resetting the router to fooling around with the network settings on the laptop..no luck
Then I stumbled upon a thread on this forum that says a quick "repair disk permissions" might fix the problem.... and it did, but only until I restart os x then back to slow speeds....
So as it stands now every time I restart I have to run repair disk permissions if I want my internet to work properly.
How do I make the repair permanent ?
Thanks!!

Type this into Safari's url bar...

if it gets you to Apple, then I think your ISP is having DNS problems, so might try putting these in Network>TCP/IP>DNS Servers:
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
Try Safari Menu Empty Caches too, if that doesn't help.

E2000: Weird "Limited Connectivity" Problem

Everytime I put my computer on "Stand By" for a few days, then try to access the Internet when I log back on it says "Limitied Connectivity." I'm constantly having to unplug then replug in my router to access the Internet. I'm just wondering if anyone here would have any ideas as to what may be causing this and how to fix it. Thanks in advance.

Is your computer wireless or wired to the router?
I think your computer is not getting IP address when it log back on.
Check the power management settings on your computer for the wired or wireless adapter. I think there is an option not to turn off the adapter when the computer is in sleep mode.

Weird Laptop Wireless Connection Problem

I have an HP DV6 6C16NR i7-2670QM laptop and am having a very annoying wireless internet connection problem.
I'll connect fine to my home network, but if I restart and try to connect again, it won't. The only way to fix it, is if I change the channel on my router. And then it'll repeat itself.
Any idea what's going on here? Must be some sort of proxy/memory type problem?
Using Netgear WNDR3700 with only 2.4ghz enabled. Lots of other wireless devices in our home connects without any issues at all. ie. cellphones (4), wireless alarm clock, IP cams (2) and a netbook.
Is this a hardware issue that I should warranty?

Hello ThaiM69,
I'm not sure if you have Windows 7 or 8. Please take a look at this page and let me know if the troubleshooting steps help to resolve your connection issue.
Good luck!

Local Network Connection Problem with SQL Server 2008 R2

Hi,
I have CRM application which uses SQL server 2008. Weird thing is that I have no problems connecting from client machines to the server when using a particular router (via LAN) and when I upgrade the firmware of the same router (A common open source firmware
which is used by many also works perfect apart from mentioned problem) and restart the server, the connection cannot be established. I get Error 40.
When i downgrade the firmware and restart the server, the connection works again.
Please note that I am absolutely not touching any configuration of the server. Also the CRM software allows remote connections from public IPs which this feature works fine with both downgraded and upgraded firmwares.
As for my understanding, the routers do not block ports in LAN connections. So how can I diagnose the reason for this connection problem?

Hi Leony83,
Please also help to check Windows Event Log information regarding this issue, so that we can do further investigation. In additin, here is the general steps to troubleshoot SQL Server Error 40 issue. Please see:

IPOD CONNECTIVITY PROBLEM WITH WINDOWS XP VIA USB 2.0

Enough is enough.
I have an ipod touch and I am having difficulty connecting it to my pc via usb 2.0.
I have searched the entire web and came across many cases similar or the same as mine. It's time for apple to face the fact that there is something wrong with either the apple mobile service or the apple usb drivers or the itunes software that causes connectivity problems with win xp.
For the record my case is this:
I got my itouch 3 days ago. I installed itunes 8.0. Then I plugged in my ipod to a usb extension cable port connected to a usb at the back of my desktop computer. At first I got the "this usb device can perform faster if you plug it to a usb 2.0 port etc." message. So I did. I removed the extension cable and connected it directly to one of the usb ports at the back. The first time it synchronized, it seemed fine. So I decided before I do anything with it, to update it to the 2.1 version. I made my account and bought (very bad policy there apple, it should be free or at least cheeper than 8 euro) the 2.1 update. I clicked to update the i-touch. While it was updating it crashed during the restore process (because it was disconnected but I didn't know that at the time). I unplugged it, resetted and plugged it back and managed to continue the restoring process until it was updated. After figuring out itunes I chose the "manage files manually option", kept everything unchecked in the sync options except the applications. I noticed there were random disconnections here and there but I didn't pay much attention because they weren't very frequent.
The next day I plug in the touch again and suddenly I hear that annoying "connecting-disconnecting" sound from windows while my touch kept disappearing and reappearing in itunes. Suddenly my playlists disappeared from the touch. Nothing was in the touch any more. How could that happen since i had chosen to manage my files manually instead of synchronizing? So I unplugged the touch again, restarted the touch, restarted the pc, stopped and restarted the apple mobile service, unistalled and reinstalled itunes, searched microsoft support and read many usb troubleshooting documents in the web. Nothing happened. The touch randomly keeps disconnecting from the usb. I eventually managed to put my stuff back in and keep them there.
Here's what I know:
1) There is nothing wrong with my usb ports. I don't use usb hubs, they are usb 2.0, the voltage (500mA) is correct in the device manager. Everything else works fine there.
2) The ipod touch does not support disk mode so you can't see it under "my computer" and this is not a problem.
3)There is nothing wrong with the ipod, it works perfectly.
4) This is not a usb cable physical problem.
5) The five R's are irrelevant with this situation.
Uninstalling and reinstalling itunes doesn't solve the problem, neither does hard resetting the ipod.
6) Older PC configurations seem to be more affected by this but it doesn't have to do with unsupported specific chipsets.
Here's what needs investigating:
1) There may be a problem with the apple mobile service running on win XP.
2) There may be a problem with the apple usb driver and win XP or older motherboards.
3) There may be a 2.1 firmware issue with usb 2.0 connectivity.
Workaround so you don't go nuts:
Use USB 1.1 instead of 2.0. It is A LOT slower but it keeps the connection stable and you can work with the ipod. Just start copying and go do something else for the next hour. So far it works for me.
This is a serious issue that needs immediate attention. I've stumbled across forum discussions dating to 2005 with this problem (with older ipods of course).

I think this needs to be put down to the eternal PC/Mac argument. Apple dont want to fix this as they want everyone to buy a Mac. Its a business, understandable, but in turning away PC buyers they alienate a huge percentage of the market.
Now, I had my first iTouch stolen. It synced, for the most part, very well, just occasionally it removed settings and music, but ticking boxes each time I sync'd sorted that, Its a workflow procedure.
SO, now that my Touch has been replaced, iTunes cannot see it. The PC can identify it on USB1 or USB2, My work lap top can see it and has indeed upgraded it to V2 software, just in case that was the issue, but no. For some really weird reason Itunes on my desktop cannot see the new pod.
This does not make sense with the argument that Apple software doesnt work on a PC, but doesnt help that none of the Apple support staff, phone or in-store have a clue about Windows operations.
Because my Touch has now been trying to connect to 6 separate installs of itunes, multiple USB ports, multiple USB cables, a complete overhaul of the registry settings (everything else still works), and the loss of all my previous settings and backups from the last Touch... but still, the PC says its an ipod but cant install it, iTunes sits there, dumb.
The only thing I can do now is sell the device as brand new as it has never had music on it and is just a week old...
It has changed the MiniMac I was going to have for my new flat screen TV into a PC and suggests that anyone with a PC should stick to devices that run on PC, of which there are many, just without the user interface of the dear departed IPod Touch.
Thanks

Time Capsule connection problem

Hello, since three days ago i have been unable to make a backup because I have a connection problem to find the backup disk. The message that I get is: " Check the server name or IP address, and then try again. If you continue to have problems, contact your system administrator". It is weird because when i run the airport utility it shows a green ligth on my time capsule device and also the time capsule hardware has the green ligth. Furthermore I use the device as a router and my network is working fine (Internet, wireless printing HP-envy).
Any ideas on how to fix the issue?

Try just restarting the TC.. this is a Lion plus 7.6 firmware issue.. maybe the new 7.6.1 will help.
If that does not work reset the TC and redo its setup.

Macbook Pro Wireless Connection Problems

I bought my 13 inch macbook pro 1 week ago and I've had wireless connection problems from day 2 (I think after the updates).
Problems include:
- Safari cannot connect to the internet for 5~10 minutes after I turn it on, whether it be from sleep mode or completely off or restart (the fastest connection I got after turning it on was about 40 seconds)
- Loading takes ridiculously long and eventually Safari cannot find the server
- Airport signal (on the top right hand corner) is always full when it is not working
- Sometimes internet works but it is ridiculously slow
However, when the wireless connection stabilizes, Airport Signal is 2~3 bars full and internet works SOOO well and I love it so much when it does. But the problem is that it stabilizes like 30 minutes to never after I turn it on and it makes me so mad I want to explode this piece of crap in the microwave.
So I've called apple support, and they made me try four things:
1. Reset modem, router, and computer
2. Delete caches, reset Safari
3. Putting Airport first on the Service Order and resetting DHCP Lease
4. Connecting with Ethernet Cable then resetting the computer
None of these worked, and I'm suspecting that the cause of the problem is the hardware (not the aluminum body that's just bs) because my router and modem are working fine (my other samsung laptop is working perfectly). I don't think the problem lies in my network settings either because I did exactly what the Apple technicians told me to do. So after Appleguy made me try all 4 of those diagnostics, he told me to contact my router company NETGEAR because he thinks nothing is wrong with the mac hardware, so I did. The NETGEAR lady told me if one laptop is working and another isn't, there is nothing wrong with the router. So if nothing is wrong with my hardware, software, router, modem, ISP... Why do I have wireless issues????!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
I'm going to return this <edited by host> or get another one with my warranty

Same thing here.
I've got a Macbook Pro 15" bought 6 weeks ago, airport express bought about a year ago. All updated with latest software/firmware, etc. Problems include:
-Sometimes when i pull down the network list, my network isn't even there, yet i'm still connected to it. My airport is appx 10 feet away in an open area.
-usually after opening safari or firefox for the first time upon sleep, restart, or just opening the program after i had quit it, it is miserably slow. it takes about 2 minutes for pages like msn.com to load. finally when they do, its faster than you can imagine. that lasts for about a minute. then its slow again.
-when logged into ichat and i send messages, i would sometimes get a "connection timeout" message. my buddy would end up getting the message about 5 minutes later.
My iphone and dell laptop work fine. i haven't tried running parallels, but if bootcamp works, so should prlls.
I've reset the modem about 20 times. i've reset the airport about 20 times. i even re-installed my OS on the mac and nothing has done it.
Weird thing is that i've had my mac for 6 weeks, and this problem surfaced only 3 days ago.
Clearly its not an issue of any of our ISP's. Due to the fact that this only started for me 3 dyas ago, i'm hopeful that its only a software problem and not something else. Hopefully apple will a) ADMIT THEY HAVE A PROBLEM HERE and b) FIX IT.

XE connection problem after using Cisco AnyConnect Client

Hello
I have a rather annoying problem connecting to an XE instance AFTER I have disconnected from a VPN via a Cisco AnyConnect VPN Agent.

P965 Platinum/Realtek RTL8111 Connectivity Problems

I have a P965 Platinum that has the on board Realtek RTL8111. I have had it since Dec '06. I have the latest Win Xp. Driver 5.658.814.2006. From the beginning I have had connectivity problems. I have stripped the motherboard of all non-essential components and I have installed XP multiple times.
Almost every time I boot up, and windows comes up, I get a Limited or No Connectivity error. Notice I said 'almost' every time. Sometimes I get connected right away. I thought it might be a loose cord, and noticed that the left LED on the back of the LAN jack was blinking. Which according to the manual means that it is talking. I wiggled the cable around to see if it was a bad connection, nothing. Then I replaced it and I connected. Unfortunately when rebooted, it wasn't connected again. After trial and error, I soon realized that by unplugging and re plugging the cable back in I could eventually get it to connect, which it eventually did every time. Bad connection right? Now here is the weird part, if I disable and enable the local area connection under Network Connections in windows enough times eventually it connects! Here is exactly what I do: First I disable it and then enable it again. If it takes more than a couple of seconds trying to connect, I know it will fail. So I keep doing it until it works. I thought it was a BIOS or driver issue and being such a new board I thought I should just wait. No other computer of mine has this problem.
Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Have you tried using another cable to rule out the possibility that your cable is bad?
Yes, I tried a new cable. Same effect. Now of my other computers have problems with the cable or connection.

Have you tried the updated Realtek drivers from MSI (5.664.0205.2007)? Dated 2007-04-20

Yes, I tried those drivers which are also on the Realtek website. The funny thing is that it connected the first time! Unfortunately when I tried it again (reboot and restart) it did not connect. So the driver upgrade did not fix the problem.

Timeouts and connection problems after 5.1(2) upgrade

AIM/chat and some other programs are having timeout/connection problems after upgrade to 5.1(2). I am using S241 also. The connection problems stopped when the IPS was set to bypass. Rebuilt IPS and left sigs at default settings and problem is still happening. I am not seeing any of the IPs that are having the problem in the Event Viewer or on the Events in the IDM.
Any known issues with the 5.1(2) that would cause this type of problem?

I don't know specifically, but I did notice that 5.1(3) was released today.

Hello Sue,
I have an iPad 3, iPad Mini and iPhone 5S and they are all sluggish on capitalisation using shift keys. I hope that Apple will solve the problem because it is driving me crazy.
I find using a Microsoft Surface and Windows 8 phone, which I also have, work as well as all the ios devices before the ios 7 upgrade.
It has something to do with the length of time that you need to hold the shift key down. The shift key needs to be held longer than the letter key for the capitalisation to work. For some reason, this is a major change in the way we have learnt to touch type on computers. I am having to relearn how to type!
