XWindows client for Redhat EL5/Oracle 10g

I am trying to install Solman 4.0 on to a Redhat EL5/Oracle 10g platform but the sapinst screen does not refresh when we move through the installation.  The xwindows client is CYGWIN and is running on a WinXP workstation.
Has anyone else experienced this and what did you do to fix it?  May this be because of a problem with the xwindows client?  If so can someone recommend a shareware xwindows client to use?  We are currently at the most recent version for sapinst so I cannot patch that.
Steve

I know this effect with cygwin/X.
I see several options:
1. Resize the window everytime an update was made, then the window will be repainted. That's annoying, but it works.
2. install sapinst locally on your WinXP and start sapinst in server mode.
3. try another XServer like XDeep/32 or X-Win32

  • Running Oracle 9i client code against an Oracle 10g install on PC

    On Unix I am able to run Oracle 9i client code against an Oracle 10g install by setting ORACLE_HOME to the Oracle 10g install location and then creating a symbolic link (example: ln -fs libclntsh.so.10.1 libclntsh.so.9.0).
    On PC (in particular XP SP2) I want to do something similar without using "junctions" or "junction points". Is there a way to set an environment variable or ini file to have my 9i client code point to the right libraries? I keep getting an error saying that my client code will not run due to "orasql9.dll" not being found. The "orasql10.dll" is installed on my machine.
    Any assistance would be appreciated.

    You might want to check metalink doc,
    Client / Server / Interoperability Support Between Different Oracle Versions
    Doc ID: Note:207303.1
    Even your application built on 9i, doesn't mean it will not work with 10g database. From what I can see, running 9i executable under 10g installation to create mixed blood breed will do more harm than good. Not only it's not supported but also the outcome is unpredictable.

  • Install client for two different oracle versions

    hello, right now I'm involved in two different projects, which work with Oracle 9i and 10g, and I need to access both databases from the same computer. My question is if it's possible to install the client software for both versions without problems.
    Thank you

    The problem is that the client for 9i is already installed in that machine, and it can't be uninstalled. So I need to install 10g client software, but without uninstalling the other one, only if this operation doesn't generate any conflicts. Is there an official Oracle document or somethign similar about this topic?

  • Is Oracle Client 10 part of Oracle 10g Developer Suite install?

    Hello,
    I am currently using Oracle Client 9i for Business Objects. I suppose once I move to Oracle 10g Developer Suite, I'll need to move this to Oracle 10g Client. Is this a separate install from the developer suite?
    Thanks.

    A Developer install should be including it's own Oracle Client -- ie Oracle_Home. That is how I've seen it in older versions -- haven't done Developer installs for quite a few years now !
    See http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_08//doc/dl/core/B16012_04/chap2.htm#i1018939 and http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B25016_08//doc/dl/core/B16012_04/chap3.htm .
    The 10g Developer install is expected to be seperate from existing ORACLE_HOMEs

  • Problems using Quick Migrate in SQL Developer 1.5 for MySQL to Oracle 10g

    Hi all,
    I am trying to use SQL Developer 1.5 migration tools (Quick Migrate) to perform online capture and build source model to migrate from MySQL 5.x to Oracle 10g on Windows platform. I get these errors and the Quick Migrate process fails:
    oracle.dbtools.metadata.persistence.PersistableObject.doInsert(PersistableObject.java:238)
    I did a search and used the sqldeveloper.cmd script but still fails. Then I created a new database and truncated the repository. I now get the above error plus two new ones listed below:
    oracle.jdbc.driver.DatabaseError.throwSqlException(DatabaseError.java:112)
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    Error occurred during capture: Protocol violation
    It fails during the capture process for MySQL 5.1 database
    when it begins to capture the tables from MySQL.
    Does anyone know how to resolve these issues when migrating from MySQL to Oracle 10g using Quick Migrate with SQL Developer 1.5 release?

    Hi all,
    I put the following in my sqldeveloper.cmd file:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    What is very confusing is that with SQL Developer 1.5, there are several levels and several SQL Developer executables! I am really not sure which of these to use:
    I created the SQLDeveloper 1.5 directory called SQLDeveloper1_5 on Windows:
    1) cd C:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338
    there exists a sqldeveloper.exe
    2) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper.exe
    3) cd c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloer\bin\sqldeveloper.exe
    Which SQLDeveloper 1.5 executable should I be using and where should I place the
    sqldeveloper.cmd file?
    Also I did try to use a different database and schema for the repository with Quick Migrate but it appears a bug exists in SQL Developer 1.5 version that causes errors with Quick Migrate for MySQL to Oracle? Is this correct?
    As an update, I ran the following commands:
    cd to
    c:\sqldeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper\sqldeveloper\bin
    sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    Start sqldeveloper.exe
    Perform standard capture for MySQL using the new mig2 schema as the new repository
    It starts the capture but fails on the errors below:
    Error loading nls:OALL8 is in an inconsistent state
    UPDATE
    ============================
    I tried this again and it worked with the exception of one error message listed below:
    Here are the steps that I followed:
    1. Create a Windows cmd script
    Put the following entries in the script:
    SET ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
    save the command windows script as sqldeveloper.cmd
    Copy this script to the base installation directory for SQLDeveloper
    Example:
    1. cd c:\SQLDeveloper1_5\sqldeveloper-5338\sqldeveloper
    2. Start SQLDeveloper with the command script that you created earlier
    Example:
    Open a Windows shell prompt window and execute the following scripts:
    a) sqldeveloper.cmd sqldeveloper.exe
    b) sqldeveloper.exe
    3) In SQL Developer 1.5
    From the Migrate menu,
    a) Delete current repository and create a new schema in Oracle target database call it mig2.
    b) Then create a new repository in SQL Developer 1.5
    c) Right mouse click on the MySQL 5.x database and choose capture
    It worked with the exception of one error message:
    o.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver     
    Error while registering Oracle JDBC Diagnosability MBean.
    So it looks like something is screwed up with my JDBC drivers and configuration for MySQL. How do I diagnose the JDBC driver issue for MySQL?
    Thanks!!!

  • Can I disable logging for session in Oracle 10g?

    I use a procedure to delete a lot of row for an application repeatedly. Because the DELETE statement is time consuming and the data don't need to be archived, I decide to use the nologging option.
    How to do it?
    What is the best choice? Can I disable logging from session in Oracle 10g?
    Thank you
    Edited by: jetq on Jul 23, 2009 9:46 AM

    Hi,
    "Delete" without generating redo-log is not possible.
    If you are on 10g, one way of making this thing efficiant is partition the table, with range-list partitioning. Partitioning existing table will be an excercise in itself, but that will be one time activity.
    In partitioned (or sub-partitioned) tables, you can truncate a partition (or subpartition). That won't generate any redo log (or very very less redo log) and that runs in seconds.
    In your case if you range partition INCOMING table by datetime (1 partition per day) and list sub-partition it by STATUS, that would help.
    Another approach is, if you are deleteing, say 80% records every day and leaving 20% (or very less) records. What you can do is, partition the table only by range on datetime. Then, every time you want to delete data, copy the rows you want to keep in some other table (or temporary table), truncate partition for that day and insert rows back (which you want to keep).
    I have done a similar thing and it works very quickly and generates very less redo log. Redo log generated in case of truncating partition or creating new partitions is just for Oracle internal commands (like data dictionary update etc).
    Have fun.

  • Specify File Encoding(Japanese Characters) for UTL_FILE in Oracle 10g

    Hi All,
    I am creating a text file using the UTL_FILE package. The database is Oracle 10G and the charset of DB is UTF-8.
    The file is created on the DB Server machine itself which is a Windows 2003 machine with Japanese OS. Further, some tables contain Japanese characters which I need to write to the file.
    When these Japanese characters are written to the text file they occupy 3 bytes instead of 1 and distort the format of the file, I need to stick to.
    Can somebody suggest, is there a way to write the Japanese character in 1 byte or change the encoding of the file type to something else viz. ShiftJIS etc.
    Thanking in advance,
    Regards,
    Tushar

    Are you using the UTL_FILE.FOPEN_NCHAR function to open the files?
    Cheers, APC

  • PCTFREE setting for index in Oracle 10g R2

    Is PCTFREE parameter obsolete in oracle 10g R2? I don't see any reference to this paramerer in oracle documentation:
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14231.pdf
    But 10g R 1 does mention about this setting.
    http://support.cs.nott.ac.uk/help/docs/databases/oracle/standard/server.101/b10739.pdf
    We are still using Dictionary Managed tablespaces on 10.2.0.3. Can we ignore this parameter on 10g R2 ?
    Thank You

    PCTFREE is still relevent even in ASSM. (that you are using DMT means that you are not using ASSM, but LMT could be MSSM !)
    I couldn't find PCTFREE in the Administrator's Guide but it is still very much present in the SQL Reference
    http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14200/clauses007.htm#g1058547

  • Need Oracle 9i client for RedHat Enterprise Linux AS 4.0 machine

    I need to install Oracle 9i client on my RHEL AS 4.0 machine (running Intel xeon 64 bits processor). Could some one please point me to correct installable for this.
    I tried to use both the Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.0.4) installables at http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/oracle9i/index.html
    But both of them are giving error. For Linux x86-64 installable, the Universal Installer is not able to launch because the installer seems to be for AMD processor. And for second installable (32 bit installable), I get a JRE related error saying that a java library file (some *.so file) could not be located.
    Please guide me on the same...
    Thanks a lot,
    Anuj Tiwari

    According this info you should install x86_64 version.
    In your first post you mentioned some errors during installtion. Can you post exact error message?
