When configuring a datasource for Oracle using the thin client, I get an Oracle error.

We have had no problems using Oracle up to this point, and have been using ColdFusion and Oracle very happily for a long time. 
Due to security requirements where the ColdFusion server is hosted, the following changes were made to the Oracle client on the Oracle RDMS machine which caused ColdFusion to be unable to connect. 
In the sqlnet.ora file, we had to add the follwing line:
SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION = 10
That parameter was required, it is not optional and we cannot lower it.
Info about our ColdFusion Server:
System Information
Server Details
Server Product
ColdFusion
Version
ColdFusion 10,285437
Edition
Enterprise  
Operating System
Windows Server 2008 R2  
OS Version
6.1  
Update Level
/D:/ColdFusion10/cfusion/lib/updates/chf10000011.jar  
Adobe Driver Version
4.1 (Build 0001)  
We are using Oracle 11.2.0.3
Once that change is in place, connections from our ColdFusion server get refused with the following error:
ORA-28040: No matching authentication protocol
I have verified that I can connect to the database with our credentials, and verified that the connection is valid:
From the local server's ODBC Data Source Administrator console, I create a system DSN using the Oracle OCI client driver (ojdbc6.jar) by indicating that the TNS Service name is the same as defined in the TNSNames file, and it tests out fine.
Everything I have found on the net indicates that I would need to make a change to the Client, but the Client in this case is the ColdFusion server.  It doesn't seem like other than the fact that it seems to be using the correct driver, that it is making any use of any of the additional settings, including those found in the sqlnet.ora file.
HELP!  I don't know where else to go... i don't believe that this is an Oracle error, since everything seems to be functioning correctly.  I believe this to be a ColdFusion issue.
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you VJ, however that didn't provide any help.  There are no pointers at all within that post.
Please keep in mind that I don't believe this to be an Oracle issue.  The Oracle client is functioning fine when I use the ODBC tools in windows to verify the connection.
I can google, "SQLNET.ALLOWED_LOGON_VERSION = 10" and get a billion links that say basically nothing too.
I believe this is the way ColdFusion is configured to use the Oracle drivers... Which is why I can't ask Oracle, they'd just tell me to go to Adobe!
But, I have searched Oracle Support, and there wasn't much there either, so I am turning to the community in hopes that someone has seen this and solved it.

  • Using the SAF client from the wlfullclient.jar in Tomcat or Jetty?

    I'm trying to use the SAF client in Tomcat and Jetty and if I use the wlfullclient.jar I get the following error when I start the application:
              java.lang.InternalError: error initializing kernel caused by: java.lang.AssertionError: Duplicate initialization of WorkManager
              If I use the "thin" client jars everything works fine. Unfortunately I need to be able to use the full client in some cases. Is there some way to get this to work or is there a conflict between the Weblogic classes and the other Servlet containers?
              Edited by mhellkamp at 08/30/2007 3:42 PM

    I believe the conflict here is with the Tomcat/Jetty WorkManager. I don't think the client was inteneded to run insides another container. That's why you're getting that error of duplicate initialization of WorkManager.
              Why not replace the Tomcat/Jetty with another WebLogic instance? :)

    Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your iTunes library and redownload it via the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
    If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes Support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    Ask Linksys. If you reset the extender it presumably lost the username and password it was supposed to service.  I'd just supply the name and password and move on.

    when streaming is it better to use the wall outlet for source of power or will that eventually drain the battery?

    Best to use wall power to keep the battery from draining.  You can do either of course but will have a limited time on battery.

When I chose to do this by the security answers, it's not work again, because does not accept my birth date. Can you please somebody help with this issue? Thanks in advance

    If you have a rescue email address on your account then you've checked the inbox and spam folder on that account as well, and you've tried requesting the email again ? If you still can't find it then try contacting Support in your country and see if they can reset it for you.

  • I recently upgraded my internet service with Comcast for faster internet.  When I user ethernet connection I get 50 MB download speed....when I use the wireless connection I get 10-20 MB speed.  I have an airport extreme...3-4 years old.  Why?

    I recently upgraded my internet service with Comcast for faster internet.  When I use an ethernet connection I get 50 MB download speed....when I use the wireless connection I get 10-20 MB speed.  I have an airport extreme...3-4 years old.  Why is the speed so different and are there settings I can change to increase the wireless speed?

    If your supposed to be getting 20 Mb/s down via your ISP and both Mac's are not getting that on the SpeedTest, then obviously your router appears to be the cause.
    Connect one Mac directly to the ISP's modem, power off/wait 30 seconds/then power on, then power on the Mac. The ISP will connect directly to the Mac, then run a SpeedTest.
    Then repeat the same for the other Mac. If both Mac's have a problem then it's possibly the ISP, the modem, your lines to them or on your property, or both Mac's are messed up.
    You'll have to keep searching for the cause. Call your ISP and ask then to run a test to see if your getting your 20 Mb/s to your modem, that should clear part of the problem.

  • I cannot log into oracle using the user scott

    I installed oracle, but I did not go through the underlined step. I am not sure if I skipped or it was not there during the installation
    The Database Configuration Assistant will provide installation summary
    and list the accounts that are unlocked. It will ask you for password management. Sys
    and System accounts would be already unlocked.  Unlock HR and Scott accounts,
    and for these two accounts also specify the same password that you had given before.
    When I test logging into Oracle using the user Scott, it shuts down.
    I am using windows 7, and I installed Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.1.0)
    Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows (32-bit)
    How can I log into oracle using the user Scott?

    Hi,
    Welcome to the forum,
    After installing Oracle 10g SCOTT user will be in locked, you should unlock it.
    Login as sysdba using the below command
    sqlplus sys as sysdba
    password:<ur password>
    after connecting as sysdba use the below command to unlock the SCOTT user
    ALTER USER SCOTT ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
    Now connect as scott you will bw able to connect.

  • How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

    How can I create accurate decimal dimensions when creating a new document or using the art board in Illustrator CS6? When I type in a number with a decimal, it automatically rounds the number up.

    For my part you are welcome, sdowers.
    Unfortunately, the uncertainty arising from the rounding has been up several times here in this forum.
    I just came to remember a warning that needs to be given:
    The rounding of the representation of a numerical value may be harmless in itself, but if you use it for any operation that changes the value, such as multiplication or whatever, things will go wrong because the operation will be made on the basis of the rounded value instead of the true value. So, as in your first case in post #2, 39.625 rounded to 39.63 will become 79.26 instead of 79.25.

  • How to use the userid and password infor from Oracle DB in BO

    Out client has the userid and passwords(encrypted) infomration stored in oracle table.
    Is it possible to import this useid and password information into BO .And use the same userid and password from Oracle table for its login authentication and for data security...?
    In other words can the userid/pwd info from Oracle Profile Table imported and re-used in BO Enterprise Edition.

    If the users/pw are in an Oracle LDAP v3 compliant server then you can import them via LDAP plugin, else you would need to bring them in an enterprise users via script. The Import wizard can do this and the SDK (see the SDK forums for more info on how)
    Maintaining the passwords would be difficult unless you are using and industry standard directory like LDAP.

  • Anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    anyone else getting a timed out error message when trying to check for updates via the app store software on a desktop?

    Hi, couple of things to try...
    Anonymous
    Post subject: NSURLErrorDomain error -1100 in OS X 10.8
    If you check for software updates using the App Store in OS X 10.8 and get "NSURLErrorDomain error -1100" the problem may be with your Software Update preferences. This is particularly likely if you were using a custom Apple Software Update server. To solve the problem, quit the App Store, move the following two files (if present) to the trash, restart, and only then rerun App Store updates:
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.SoftwareUpdate.plist.lockfile

    I was recently trying to upgrade to mountain lion through the app store.  I have unreliable Internet from a cable company whom I will not name, but we all know who they are.  My Internet dropped while downloading the upgrade.  Once I went through the notorious unplug the modem/router and plugged it back in to gain Internet connectivity again, I could not resume. No matter what I did, the app store kept displaying "an error occurred." I am hoping that those with the same issue read this first to save them hours of skimming through the Internet to find a solution.  Here are the steps to take:
    1. Make sure you have reestablished Internet connection
    2. Chances are you got frustrated when you tried to resume/unpause the download and clicked the "X" to the left.  If so, select the "Store" drop-down menu from the App Store and select "View My Account." There should be an option to unhide your purchase.  You know what to do.
    3. There is also an option to  reset all warnings for buying and downloading under "View My Account." Do this, click "Done," sign out of the App Store and quit the App Store.
    4. Open the Preferences in safari and select Privacy.  Select "Remove All Website Data."  Just do it.
    5. Launch the app store and sign in.
    6. Now, if you "Check for Unfinished Downloads" everything works peachy.
    I hope this helps.  Not much I can do for your Internet connection though.

  • Can v use the same Client for setting the ALE ??

    Can i use the same client like 080 for my ALE configuaration ?

    Configuring is a Cross-Client(Client Independent) activity.
    Check whether you have necessary access/authorizations to Configure.
    This should be always done in Development client.
    Hope this helps.
