What is DI's native connection to Oracle 10g?

I got the following question from the customer:
What is BODI native connection (to Oracle)? Does it use sql*net, JDBC or ODBC?
I know it's not JDBC or ODBC. DI should use the Oracle client installed on the server. Then it must be sql*net? This is a DI 11.5.3 on HP-UX.
Thanks,
Larry

DI uses OCI for oracle connectivity

Problem to connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 at Vista sp2

Introduction
Hi guys, good day... NEED RESCUE!! SOS!! Hmm.. i have trouble been 1 weeks trying connect between Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 on window vista sp2. Actaully im very new at Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 but i got a project is going to build up system database and i figure out Oracle 10g xe and VB2010 can use free so i just chows these appication to be my project. I been search around internet and there is several things i was found about the connection but i has try and tried still it wont work out.
Things i found and learned
Oracle
1. I have download Oracle 10g XE and installed in my windows vista sp2.
2. I notice the Oracle Developer Tools is needed for VB2010 (To add reference 'Oracle.DataAccess'). So i was downloaded ODT11beta and installed
3. I also edit TNSNAMES to following below:
OraDb =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = orcl)
4. My sqlnet like following below:
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES = (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT)
5.I have try tnsping OraDB and its works.
6. I monitoring task manager and OracleServicesXE is running.
7. ora_dba is added in Group.
Problem in SQLPLUS
When i try connect SQLPLUS in cmd i get ERROR: ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.
i . In cmd i type sqlplus and enter then i been ask for username and password.
ii. After i insert my username and password and enter then i get the error of ORA-12560.
Visual Basic 2010
1. First i created my project, drawing label and button for test connection.
2. Then, i add reference Oracle.DataAccess into my project.
3. I type following script into my vb form:
Imports System.Data
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Client
Imports Oracle.DataAccess.Types
Public Class Logon
Private Sub cmdLogon_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles cmdLogon.Click
Dim oradb As String = "Data Source = OraDb; User Id = system; Password = shin;"
Dim conn As New OracleConnection(oradb)
conn.Open()
Dim cmd As New OracleCommand
cmd.Connection = conn
cmd.CommandText = "select SName from Staff where SName = shin"
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text
Dim dr As OracleDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
dr.Read()
lblOra.Text = dr.Item("SName")
conn.Dispose()
End Sub
End Class
Problem in VB2010
When i run my project and press the button i get error message ORA-12514: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified at conn.Open()
Extra Question*
1. Im notice in my netbook xp home sp2, before i install ODT11beta my sqlplus look fine thought cmd but after i installed ODT11beta its same problem with my Vista sp2 now. Get error ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error :( I tried uninstall ODT11beta again and restart its work fine again. Which i really dun understand. Izzit the version ODT11 is not suitable for 10g xe? And i dunno this problem is related with my connection between oracle 10g xe and vb2010 or not. So confuse@@
2. I wish to know more about connect between Oracle and VB, is there still a things i miss?(I mean steps or configuration that should i done)
3. Or i just lower my VB version could make more easy? If yes, what version VB should i use that could work out with oracle 10g xe?
4. Sorry for too bad my english but i really wish somebody could help me. Please try to understand my written or you could ask me mean if dont understand. Im stuck!! Stuck feel not really that good.....

Huhu..
Yo, henry
I thought the OraDb is just a name for entry but im not sure it is a service. I was refer http://www.oracle.com/technology/pub/articles/cook-vs08.html at topic Connection Strings and Objects.
Here is my lsnrctl service

Izzit ok? I notice there is no listed OraDb. but tnsping OraDb seem fine.
Actually there is somethings as a newbie i wondering long time alreadly ><
1. The origin of tnsname.ora is no OraDb or ORCL but i just simple add it by open tnsname.ora with notepad. Im just not sure it is function or not.
Also please check at my TNSNAME.ORA:
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = shin-PC)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = XE)

I got the feeling there is so close~~~!!!

Need help w. connecting to oracle 10g express

I have been having extreme difficulty with connecting to oracle 10g express edition. what do I put in at the SQL > prompt to access sql plus? Are there first some env. variables which I need to set? Sorry for the basic "newbie" question about this.

what do I put in at the SQL > prompt to access sql plus?You may trySQL> conn / as sysdbabut don't use this one for your application data, create your own user(s) instead.
Are there first some env. variables which I need to set?Depends... what's your operating system, and are you running sqlplus from SQL command line or from OS prompt ?

ODBC Error while Siebel Server try to connect to Oracle 10G

We have managed to get through with the configuration of siebel server on HP Unix. However before we get to the Database configuration, we are encountering errors with ODBC connection to oracle 10g database. We are able to connect to oracle using sql plus but odbc connection is failing. We verified for patches, missing files, directory access rights - but no clue as of now.
Our error says:
Logging into "ENTSIA_DEV_DAN" as "sadmin"....
/user/lib/hpux32/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libclntsh.so'.
ODBC error IM0003 in SQLConnect:
(DataDirect){ODBC lib} specified driver could not be loaded
Unable to login using specified odbc parameters
This has become a show stopped for us and we are strugging with this for the past three days without much direction.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I guess your DataDirect Driver which gets registered during Database Configuration has some problems.
Can you check whether the DSN is using the proper Driver?
Also, the username through which you are logging in to start Siebel Services must have proper rights.
Many times on Windows platform i have noticied this error in ODBC due to improper user rights. If the rights are not proper, the DataDirect Driver fails to get loaded & throws similar error.

Can't Create the ODBC connection for Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am working with Oracle 10g Database Release 2 in windows XP professional. I am trying to create an ODBC connection for oracle but become failure because its generating the following errors:
system error code 998
could not locate the setup or translator library
Please help me how can I solve this problem and create the ODBC connection for oracle 10g database.
Best Regards,

could not locate the setup or translator libraryThe symptom described is typical of an incorrect system env PATH setting (used by the data source admin tool), compared to that of the Oracle Home (specifically, path $OH/bin). The odbc driver config routine will search directories listed in PATH variable for necessary libraries (Client dll's). If some library fails to load (from e.g. oraoci*.dll or oraclient10.dll) it will probably error out, as in your case.
Are you creating the odbc dsn on the databse server host or on some other machine? I.e. are you using the db host as a client or not?

Error while connecting to oracle 10g data base

Following is the code we used to connect to oracle 10g data base using symbian 7.1 series 80 SDK
int CTest_S80AppUi::SetupODBC(void)
RETCODE rc;
char *DataSource = OD_DATA_SOURCE;
char UserId = "system", Password = "manager";
rc=SQLAllocEnv(&Henv);

rc=SQLAllocConnect(Henv, &Hdbc);
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLAllocConnect", FALSE) < 0)
     //return(-1);
rc = SQLConnect(Hdbc, (unsigned char *)DataSource, SQL_NTS,
          (unsigned char *)UserId, SQL_NTS,
          (unsigned char *)Password, SQL_NTS);
bConnected = TRUE;
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLConnect", FALSE) < 0) return(-1);
SQLAllocStmt(Hdbc, &Hstmt);
//if (TEST_CHECK_ERR(SQL_NULL_HSTMT, rc, "SQLAllocStmt", FALSE) < 0) return(-1);
return (1);
} /* SetupODBC */
iam getting the return code for SQLConnect as -1.
Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the reply.
//syntax means comments.
chk the following code.
int SetupODBC(void)
char *DataSource = "polite";
char UserId = "system", Password = "manager";
if ( SQLAllocEnv(&Henv) < 0 )
return -1;
if ( SQLAllocConnect(Henv, &Hdbc) < 0 )
return -1;
if ( SQLConnect(Hdbc, (unsigned char *)DataSource, SQL_NTS,
(unsigned char *)UserId, SQL_NTS,
(unsigned char *)Password, SQL_NTS) < 0 )
return -1;
if (SQLAllocStmt(Hdbc, &Hstmt) < 0 )
return -1;
return (0);
As said earlier there is a problem in SQLConnect. It is returning -1.
But the code should return 0 if successfully connected.
The info regarding the arguments used in the above methods:
HENV Henv; /* Handle to ODBC Environment object */
HDBC Hdbc; /* Handle to ODBC Connection object */
HSTMT Hstmt; /* Handle to ODBC Statement object */

Hello Ady,
Hey not all of us have a religionok, I extend my statement to those with a different religion, atheists, agnostics and anybody who does not beliefe in a divine being of any kind ;-)
some of us are bright enough to be atheistsThe implicit statement of this is not better than greeting only users of a certain religion.
To the OP: I respect your belief, but we had the discussion about greetings in this forum before. To most users any relation to a religion is inapropriate and considered a violation of the Terms of Use, e.g. {message:id=9677530}.

Using Java + WEBDAV to connect to Oracle 10g Repository

Hi,
I could not connect to Oracle 10g Repository with WEBDAV protocol. I thought that Oracle should provide a client library to help Java application to connect to Repo but I could not find it out.
Could you please show me how to connect to Repo with WEBDAV protocol?
It's better if giving me some examples.
Thanks a lot.

Hi,
Did you succeed??
I am also searching for an example.

What is Connection in Oracle 10g Database?

Please let me know what is connection term in Oracle 10g Database in detail?
Thanks,
Waheed.

Network Connections
Oracle Net Services is Oracle’s mechanism for interfacing with the communication
protocols used by the networks that facilitate distributed processing and distributed
databases.
Connections and Sessions
Connection and session are closely related to user process but are very different in
meaning.
A connection is a communication pathway between a user process and an Oracle
instance. A communication pathway is established using available interprocess
communication mechanisms (on a computer that runs both the user process and
Oracle) or network software (when different computers run the database
application and Oracle, and communicate through a network).

ORA-03106 Error when connecting to Oracle 10g from Forms 6i

I have migrated my database from Oracle 8.0.5 to Oracle 10g, version 10.0.1.0.3 through import-export utility. During migration, one difference I made was to change the NLS_LANG to UTF8 from ANSI.
The NLS_LANG for client is AMERICAN_AMERICA.WE81S08859P1.
I am using HP ML370 Proliant Server and running Red Hat Enterprise Linux AS version 3 with Oracle 10g
My client-server application is based on Oracle Developer version 2.1. I am using forms 5.0 and reports 3.0 only.
The problem with me is that the client-server application is working against the upgraded database, but with greatly downgraded speed. The .fmb files cannot be compiled, however some of the .rdf files are compiled successfully, but remaining not.
My question is that is Developer 2000 (Forms 5.0.6 and Reports 3.0.5) compatable with Oracle 10 database, as my application is running very slow ?
I tried Forms 6i to remove this problem. I used Forms Developer 6i Recut version and successfully installed on Windows XP, however, when try to create connection using Net 8 Easy Utility, the connection does not establish with following error:
ORA-03106 : fatal two-task communication protocol error
The entry has been checked in tnsnames.ora and is found correct. I also tried connecting through SQL, but the application closes.
The patch set 17 for installation on Windows XP has also been applied, but still the same error persits.
The same installation has also been checked on Windows 2000, but the same problem persists.
I would be thankful if any one provide me solution for the same. Where I am mistaken and what do I do to get out of this problem.
Regards
Naveen.

Naveen,
Forms 5.0 is not certified and not tested with Oracle DB 10g because it was desupported before 10g got released.
The other problem is hard to give a generic answer for and I suggest to address this to metalink.oracle.com

JDBC connection to Oracle 10g RAC periodically times out

I've been banging my head against the wall for months now and can't figure out why this is and what's causing it.
We have 6x CF8 servers in our environment. 3 of which work perfectly and the other 3 have the following problem. All 6 machines were installed at the same time and followed the exact same installation plan.
When I configure Oracle RAC data source, some of the machines time-out connecting to Oracle from time-to-time.
Config:
Solaris 9 on both CF and Oracle
CF8 Enterprise with the latest updater.
Apache 2 (not that it's relevant)
6 machines, load-balanced (not clustered), identical install and configuration.
data source config:
JDBC URL: jdbc:macromedia:oracle://10.0.0.3:1521;serviceName=dbname.ourdomain.com;AlternateServers= (10.0.0.4:1521);LoadBalancing=true
DRIVER CLASS: macromedia.jdbc.MacromediaDriver
The problem:
Every few minutes, CF starts hanging requests that deal with a specific RAC only data source. After about 30 seconds, all requests bail and generate this error in cfserver.log:
A non-SQL error occurred while requesting a connection from dbsource.
Timed out trying to establish connection
This happens with any RAC data source on the "bad" servers while the "good" servers don't have this problem. The "bad" server doesn't have any problems with direct (non-rac) Oracle data source.
Already tried:
Moving server connections around on a switch (rulling out bad switch port)
Copying driver from the healthy server (but it's the same installer anyway)
Changed from RAC to normal Oracle type data source - works perfectly. So at the moment I have 3 servers connecting to a specific oracle instance and the other 3 connecting to RAC.
Tried googling and searching forums and even Oracle metalink - nothing I could see relevant to this.
It's a shame that after spending a ton of money on CF8 upgrades and Oracle RAC, we can't really utilize fail-over on the database connection.
Any takers?
Thanks,
Henry

Slow first connection using Oracle 10g xe and Visual Studio 2008

{noformat}
Good day,
I'm slightly unaccustomed to using forums, so bear with me.
My initial connection to the Oracle database takes approximately 30 seconds. It seems to be waiting for a connection before timing out and trying another connection which works, as all subsequent connections work immediately. I'm unsure how other people's responses in forums can help me due to the plethora of configurations, so here's mine. My comprehension of the oracle world is still growing, you'll have to explain the terms you're using for me, Hoping you can help.
I'm using Visual Studio 2008, set to use 32 bit debug mode, on a Windows 7 Pro platform. Also using Oracle 10g Xe, and have installed the 32 bit version of ODAC 11.2 (11.2.0.1) to aid making a connection from Visual Studio to Oracle.
I have a database set up and a user with system admin rights. This is all local for a programming project and will never see the light of day outside of my personal machine.
I am using code to connect, not the GUI. I wish to code this project completely without the aid of the GUI. so my connection string within Visual Studio C# is (pw/id hidden)...
string xe = "Data Source=xe;User Id=xxxxx;Password=xxxxx;";
OracleConnection conn = new OracleConnection(xe);
My c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora file is this:
# sqlnet.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
# Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES= (NTS)
NAMES.DIRECTORY_PATH= (LDAP, TNSNAMES, EZCONNECT, ONAMES, HOSTNAME)
And my c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\TNSNames.ora file is this:
tnsnames.ora Network Configuration File: C:\DevSuiteHome\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
Generated by Oracle configuration tools.
XE =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = xe)
EXTPROC_CONNECTION_DATA =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = <machine name)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = PLSExtProc)
Just for good measure, my tnsping xe shows:
"Used paramter files:<br/>
c:\devsuitehome\network\admin\sqlnet.ora<br/><br/>
Used TNSNAMES adapter to resolve the alias<br/>
Attempting to contact (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 127.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521)))(CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = xe)))
OK (0 msec)"
So, how can I make that initial connection faster so I don't spend 15 years testing my application due to slow start-ups? :)
Thank you.
Kevin.

I have formatted my hard drive since my first post. I was running window 64 bit with a higher version of the ODAC and that proved to crash my machine with faulty error messages about memory. I have reverted to a previous version of the ODAC tools and everything works very smooth now. Still the connection time is consistently 20 seconds or longer on the first attempt.
Just a little more information.. I am currently taking a college course with 15 other students, as you can tell by the impersonal machine name, where programming using visual studio 2008, and Oracle 10g xe is expected. All of us are using a 64 bit environment and we all have difficulties cutting down the load time of making the first connection to Oracle. Some people are longer making the connection, but none are shorter.
One other note. After the first connection is made, taking 20 or more seconds, and is closed, all subsequent openings of the connection are instantaneous, for all of us.
If there is ANYTHING more I can get for you, please let me know. With my environment stable as it is, I will not need to format or change any information for the foreseeable future.
Here is the information you requested
1 The connection method I am using, I have chosen the manual connection for you, however the delay exists if the connection is made through the GUI as well.
Historically, I am getting slow connection speeds through adding the connection through the GUI or by a manual connection. Here is how I am doing it manually. I have the connection being created in 20 seconds, which is the best I can get.

I fought for weeks about the ODAC version 11.2.0.1 that you see in the previous post, and that would be a whole new thread. Suffice it to say I have a reliable environment to program in with this 10.2.0.1.0 version that I am running now, and the connection time has not changed, it is still minimum 20 seconds load time, sometimes up to 25.
