When to change COMPATIBLE parameter while upgrading to Oracle 11G
We are planning to upgrade from Oracle 10.2.0.4 on AIX to Oracle 11.2.0.2 soon.
While reading oracle upgrade documents and from oracle upgrade blog, it is mentioned that once we change compatible parameter,
we will not be able to catdwgrd.sql to downgrade.
However, if we don't change compatible parameter after an upgrade, all the testing efforts during upgrade process wont be complete
as we may need to do another round of testing after changing this value.
So what is the best time for changing this compatible parameter? 1 week or 2 weeks after upgrade?
We are considering catdwgrd.sql as our option to fallback if something goes wrong.
Thank You
Sarayu
Hi,
It's a difficult question. If your applications are validated with 11gR2, if your OS is certified to work with Oracle 11gR2, if you adjusted the requirements etc. it will work. Will it work 100% well ? Maybe not but downgrading is really an extreme solution. 11gR2 is a fully supported version and anyway you will obtain efficient support from Oracle if you encountered a bug etc.
If you have doubts change when you are sure every critical activity/charge you expect went well for example. We cannot know if it will be after 1 week or 2 weeks : it's up to you.
Be sure you check what Tom says about the COMPATIBLE parameter (it's interesting to know exactly what it covers, it does not cover the optimizer features etc.) : http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=100:11:0::::P11_QUESTION_ID:485421569569

User change password after first logging in Oracle 11g
Hi
Can you help someone in connection with this problem:
user can not change password after first logging in Oracle 11g
All the best
Ragip AvdijajSounds like they are not getting logged in at all, so they are never getting to the point where they can change the password, but we need to see more detail to give a better answer (an example or copy-paste of a sqlplus session might help)

hi,
my name is Pedro Mesquita, from Portugal Europe.
i have this problem with my client and it seems it is common to all other projects : i have a report with parameters depending on each other (but curiously this happens also with reports without depending parameters and the order for which thay are created
counts!) and when the user changes one parameter the screen (sql reporting front-end) does a postback and refreshs! is this by design by microsoft ?! the client wants to keep the previous rendered report to help him build the new one.
how can i avoid this?
microsoft help please?
best regards
Pedro MesquitaOh Microsoft.....
This means that we must build our front-end to control this "feature"....
AJAX would solve this....
Thank you.
Best Regards,
Pedro

Black screen upon wake from sleep when I change power state while in sleep
Hi,
I'm having this problem where my MacbookPro won't always wake from sleep.
OSX is 10.6.3 and fully updated.
I've done a lot of troubleshooting, and I can now replicate the issue 100%:
1 - Put the MacbookPro to sleep by closing lid
2 - Change power source (from plugged-in to battery or vice versa)
3 - open lid - MacbookPro will wake, but stays at black screen and is unresponsive.
Only if I change power state while sleeping will this issue show. Anyone else experincing this issue, and anygot got a clue on what to do?
regards,
LasseI've seen the same issue after upgrading to 10.6.3. I have a one year old MacBook Pro. I would have the screen be black after coming back from sleep or hibernate (tried both).
The workaround I found is to close the lid -almost- all the way and then immediately open it back up again, like I am catching the Mac going back to sleep and then changing my mind. For whatever reason, this has been reliably solving my issue for the last couple weeks reliably.
Only other oddity I noticed is that immediately after upgrading OS X told me that my one year old battery needed to go in for servicing...
Anyway, now all looks right with the world assuming you don't mind a quick close/open cycle.. Lovely...

Changes in webservices while migrating from Oracle App Server to WebLogic
Dear All,
I am developing webservices for a external users.
I am new to webservices.
We were using Oracle Application server to deploy the webservices.
The architecture was as mentioned below
1) A interface class
2) A Implementation class for the above interface class
Now we are planning to migrate from Oracle application server to Weblogic Application server.
I have few doubts about the migration,
1) Will there be any difference between Oracle specific WSDL and WSDL created by Weblogic ant build command
2) As our external parties are referring our SOAP requests ans responses for their implementation, i am concerned about the changes in the SOAP request and response formats. Will there be changes due to application server change?
Oracle app server - Oracle 10g application server version 9.0.4.0
Weblogic appl server - Weblogic application server version 10.3.0.0Now after creating the WSDL by Weblogic workshop. The previous request XML is not working.
Can someone help soving the below query.
We are in process of upgrading the Oracle 10g application server version 9.0.4.0 to Weblogic application server version 10.3.0.0. In the old application server we were using axis specific jars to create the WSDL for the webservices. There are so many third party applications which are accessing our webservices, so we can not change the wsdl, clients accessiong the webservices and the corresponding formats of request and response xml messages. So we need to deploy the same wsdl and for the same we need to deploy axis on to weblogic 10.3. Can you please help us regarding the same.
Qns
1 - If we can deploy the axis on to the Weblogic 10.3
2 - Can we use the same WSDL in the Weblogic server too.
3 - If we use the same WSDL, will it help us to keep the client accessing the webservices, the request xml format, response XML format the same as it is with Oracle 10g application server case.
4 - Please share how to deploy axis on to the Weblogic 10.3 application server.
5 - Please share how we can create EARs that can be deployed on the webserver using axis specific jars.
Thanks and Regards

Problem with Application Login after upgrading to Oracle 11g
I have a home-grown application with Oracle 10g database running under Windows XP Pro. Recently, I installed Oracle 11g and imported the application database from 10g to 11g (still want to keep the 10g running for a while). However, I now having problem with the application logging into the new 11g database. (Keep getting invalid user/name message).
BTW, I have no problem accessing the 11g database through SQLPlus (logging in with the same name and password that I use for the application), and the connection test of NetManager (again using the same name and password that I use for the application) was successful.
The application itself uses the old Borland BDE (Borland Database Engine) to access the 10g and 11g database. Testing confirms that BDE can access Oracle 11g with no problems.
Any idea about the probable cause(s) of the problem?
Thanks in advance,
sg200011g by default is case sensitive username/password.
You can disable that with setting parameter SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON to false.
SQL> SHOW PARAMETER SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON
SQL> ALTER SYSTEM SET SEC_CASE_SENSITIVE_LOGON = FALSE; -
Cannot post SD documents after upgrade to Oracle 11g
Dear Gurus,
Lately I have tried to upgrade database for SAP R/3 Enterprise 4.7 from Oracle 9i (9.2.0.7) to Oracle 11g (11.2.0.2). I have tried some of its features including table and index compression.
Right now my team is testing my server and find out some weird behaviour on its database. They try to create some sales order (VA01) and this action create SD document number. But when we try to check this created document number, SAP server replied weird message. It said that this SD document number is not on database and may have been archived.
When I check on ST22, it said "ORA-01502: index 'SAPWPR.VBAP~0' or partition of such index is in unusable state".
FYI, this index has been rebuild and compressed before.
I have tried to rebuild this index successfully, but still not help. I also have checked its status from SE11 and I cannot find this index on VBPA table.
Any suggestion ?

When is delete all obsolete backups triggered in Oracle 11g DB
I have a query as to when delete all obsolete backups triggered in Oracle 11g DB. We changed the RMAN retention policy to 10 days from 14 days in our setup. Is it triggered manually by delete all obsolete from Availablity->Manage Current Backups in OEM or is it triggered automatically every time RMAN backup is done?
I hope, my question is clear.
Please revert with the reply to my query.

First, I would never manage my backups in OEM. When the crunch comes at 2:00 am, I don't want ever more moving parts to be involved in recovery.
Second, the only thing approaching a "triggering" of deletion of backups is if your backups are in the FRA ... rman will, at the time of making a backup .. attempt to delete obsolete backups if necessary to free up space in the FRA.
Other than that, oboslete backups are only deleted in response to a direct DELETE OBSOLETE command. This command may optionally ( as shown by TigerDBA) include a run-time obsolesence rule, or it may depend on the standing configuration.
Another thing to note is that backups are NOT marked as obsolete. They are EVALUATED for obsolescence in response to a DELETE OBSOLETE or REPORT OBSOLETE command.
And one final thing to not is that all recovery must begin with a full backup. That would be the most recent full (or level 0 incremental) backup prior to the point in time to which you need to recover. That means the most recent full (or level 0 incremental) backup will never be considered obsolete, regardless of how old it is. -
Work process crash after upgrade to Oracle 11g
Hi guys,
I have recently upgraded my Oracle database to Oracle 11.2.0.2. My environment is SAP R/3 4.7 ext 2.00, AIX 5.3 TL 9.
I also have upgrade my SAP kernel to 6.40_EX2 kernel (the lates one).
I have tested some of advanced compression features including index compression and table compression. But couple times (when this system is idle), suddenly SAP work process is crashed without notice.
Is there any experience about this ? Any suggestion would be appreciated.

Problem in sql developer while connecting to oracle 11g
when am creating a database connection with oracle 11g in sql developer editor it s throwing network adapter could not establish the connection
connection name test
user name system
password system
Role default
Host name localhost
Port 1521
SID orcl
Can any one help me to resolve the problem?
Thanks in advanceThose parameters probably aren't correct.
Is that 11g on your machine? Try to specify the real IP instead. And sure the listener is up?
Also sure about the SID and port?
Hope that helps,

Errors while copying File Oracle 11G installation on AIX 5L
Hi,
I just try to install oralce 11g on my AIX 5l machine. All requirements has been checked and are done.
While installation I get many Errors like "File not find:"

I am Installing fresh Oracle 11G.What could be the problem?
Could you please give me some hints.
Many Thanks

Failover not working while connecting to Oracle 11g database
Hi,
We have a J2EE application that connects to Oracle 11g database.
The connection URL we are using is as below
jdbc:oracle:thin:@(DESCRIPTION =(SDU=32768)(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=abc.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST= xyz.hostname.com)(PORT=1525))(CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=PQR)))
The issue that we are facing is, the database failover is not working.The application only connects to the first host in the TNS entry.Evertime there is a failure in the connection to the first host,manual steps are required to swap the hosts.
This started happening after we upgraded Oracle DB from 9i to 11g.
We are using the client jar of 9i to connect to 11g. Could this be causing the problem?
Thanks In Advance.

Yes, you are right. Nothing else was updated.
The application still works as expected except the failover.If you are correct then I seriously doubt it has anything to do with java. It would be something to do with Oracle and/or network infrastructure.
If not then it is some small problem with the driver. You can try updating the driver but I wouldn't expect a fix. -
Unable to create new user when logged as SYS or SYSTEM user. Oracle 11g
Hello I installed oracle 11g databse. The installation went OK.
But when I tried to create a new user or alter an existing I always got "ORA-01031: insufficient privileges".
However I was able to alter SYS user when I was loged in as SYS or SYSTEM user when I was loged in as SYSTEM.
I am also able to create new tables, drop tables, query tables, create and drop synonyms and all other things except manipulate with users;
Can anybody tell me where could be the problem?
Thanks a lot in advance.

Difference between Upgrade to Oracle 11g Exam and the OCP 11g exam
Is there a difference in the Oracle Database 11g exam and OCP 11g exam?
Say for example, i am an OCP 10g and I took the New Features Course for 11g. Then I will upgrade to OCP 11g
or
I will take all the courses for 11g then take OCP (do not worry, money is not an issue in this case)
Is there a difference between the two in terms of the examination?
Will the exams for Upgrade to OCP11g and OCP11g the same?
Which one is harder? or easier?
Thanks. hope to see your feedback859640 wrote:
I am sorry. But i din't quite understand the explanation.
Correct me please if i am wrong.
As I understand you:
1. I am on OCP 10g
2. I will need to take the exams (no need to get additional training) that need to be taken to be an OCP 11g which includes the following:
- 1z0-051: Intro to SQL 11g
- 1z0-052: Admin I 11g (if passed then OCA)
- 1z0-053: Admin II 11g (if passed then OCP)
Is this correct?Can I put it this way.
I apologise if i am being explicit here but I am just being able to cover all angles.
If a person is 10g OCP DBA (and has proof of this as a valid certificate from oracle or can see this on their certification status at certview.oracle.com .... I say this because some people with a 1z0-043 exam pass only may incorrectly claim they are a 10g DBA OCP) then the following routes from 10g DBA OCP to 11g DBA OCP are possible:
1) By passing 1z0-050 ... the 11g DBA OCP should be granted with no further requirements other than the 10g DBA OCP
2) By passing 1z0-052 and 1z0-053 ....... HOWEVER .....
..... It is possilble some 10g DBA OCP may not have passed an SQL exam in the past (1z0-051/047/-007/001) and if this is the case one of 1z0-051/1z0-047/1z0-007 will also need to be passed on this route (I would recommend 1z0-051).
( Essentially route (2) is valid for any DBA OCP; there is a 1z0-055 single upgrade exam for 9i DBA OCP's)
It is recommended to find and check your existing certification under certification history (+not exam history ... that doesnt matter for this purpose+) under certview.oracle.com before starting on this route.
