• Solaris PHP 5.2.12 Oracle Instant Client error

  We test an Oracle Solaris 11 Express Server with the standard installation of Apache and PHP. But we have the Oracle Instant client and module oci8 enabled for applications of our society.

  The error seems to be random and we get it over and over again, it comes and goes after a cpl of pages are read. It seems to appear more when there are multiple users browsing the Web site.
  
  Is there any solution for this? is this a known bug? It seems strange that the instant client works sometimes and fails a second later without a change in the system.
  Hope someone can help us.

• SQL Loader for Oracle instant client 11

  I have a problem sqlldr.exe running on a machine having Oralce 11.1.0.6 instant client installed. I already copied all the DLL files it says that he needs and the whole repertoire of a machine with installation complete of RDBMS. This is the error I get:
  
  + SQL * Loader-704: Internal error: ulconnect: OCIEnvCreate [-1] +.
  
  I have no problem to connect what either using sqldeveloper. Are there files or the steps I'm missing?
  
  Thank you
  -Chris

  The add-on only supported for the moment customer is sqlplus, integration of other utilities is not supported. You can just mix DLLs of different software. There are a few documents on workarounds, for example:

  http://www.nyoug.org/presentations/2007/200703_Ji_Instant%20Client.PDF

  But no guarantee that it works and not support of Oracle.

• IIS to DSN Oracle using Oracle Instant Client 12.1

  Hello

  I hope someone here can help me, because it turns out to be a real chore.

  I need a web application of .NET in order to connect to an Oracle database.

  I use IIS 7.5 on a Web of Windows 2008R2 server 0 x 64 and ASP.NET framework 4.0

  I know very little about Oracle, I'm afraid (I'm a dedicated man of SQL Server - sorry!), so I duly donwloaded and installed the 12.1 client instant 0 x 64.

  I followed all the instructions, created the environment variables PATH and TNS_ADMIN (located at c:\instantclient_12_1, where are installed the Oracle), I had some problems with a missing 0 x 64 DLL (visual .net distribution mfc100.dll) delivered with the instant client (since this is a production almost Virgin Web server, and I don't want to install anything I don't need) , but I finally managed to make the system ODBC DSN to connect successfully.

  The tnsnames.ora file has been provided by the DBA and is as follows;

  xxx =

  (DESCRIPTION =

  (ADDRESS_LIST =

  (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xx.xx.xx.xx) (PORT = 1521))

  )

  (CONNECT_DATA =

  (SID = xxxx)

  (SERVER = DEDICATED)

  )

  )

  Great, I thought. Now for IIS.

  My IIS connection string is of the form;

  Dim conn As New Odbc.OdbcConnection("DSN=xxx;) UID = xxx; Pwd = xxx; »)

  However, whenever I try to open the said connection, I get the ubiquitous;

  "ERROR [08004] [Oracle] [ODBC] [Ora] ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connection identifier specifiedERROR [IM006] [Microsoft] [ODBC Driver Manager] driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed.

  After much research, I came to realize that I'm not the only person with the above error. He seems to be everywhere.

  This means that my IIS application is probably not rethink research tnsnames.ora reference?

  OK, I thought, let's add all accounts of IIS to the c:\instantclient_12_1 (read and execute). It's IIS do not have access to the tnsnames.ora file permissions, but still no joy.

  I also tried to set the identity of the application pool to run under a domain with privalidges account additional IIS, but still the same error.

  I tried to play with various permutations of connection string. I tried it;

  Dim conn As New Odbc.OdbcConnection ("Driver = {Oracle in instantclient_12_1}; ("Source = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST=xx.xx.xx.xx) (PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = xxxx) (SERVER = DEDICATED))); uid = xxx; pwd = xxx") data

  and this one...

  Dim conn As New Odbc.OdbcConnection ("Driver = {Oracle in instantclient_12_1}; Data Source = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = tcp)(HOST=xx.xx.xx.xx) (PORT = 1521)) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = xxxx))); uid = xxx; pwd = xxx")

  The two caused a completely different error, but all too ubiquitous, it seems;

  "ERROR [HY000] [Oracle] [ODBC] [Ora] ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter interneErreur [IM006] failedERROR SQLSetConnectAttr in the [Microsoft] [ODBC Driver Manager] [HY000] [Oracle] [ODBC driver] [Ora] ORA-12560: TNS:protocol adapter error.

  In order to try the House on it, I tried to write a small VB SCript file to access the DSN using the same connection string, I first tried;

  Set adoConnection = CreateObject ("ADODB. Connection")

  adoConnection.ConnectionString = "DSN = xxx; UID = xxx; Pwd = xxx; »

  It worked a treat, and I was able to connect perfectly. To try to drill down to the problem, I run this file as the domain user, I put IIS to run as, and it worked a treat with IIS authentication information too.

  So I'm at the end of my mind. I don't understand why IIS can simply use the system DSN.

  
  Thanks to everyone in advance for their help. It is much appreciated.

  Ok. I spent some time on this and managed to get to the bottom of all this.

  Here's what the problem was, in the case where everyone faces a similar problem.

  By deliberately that gives a bad name DSN (another mistake) and an incorrect password (resulted in the same error), I was able to determine that the problem is really that the tnsnames.ora file is not get referenced. No traffic left the server at all, and so the password was not relevant.

  Next step was to check that relax TNS_ADMIN variable has been read by IIS.

  I used the command System.Environment.GetEnvironmentVariable ("TNS_ADMIN") to prove it was empty. That explains pretty much everything that. The recently set the environment variable has not been picked up by IIS. It was nothing to do with permissions to the location of the file tnsnames.ora to all. It's a Kipper.

  It would seem that, surprisingly, server restart is necessary for the work process IIS pick up new environment variables. Basically this simple problem cost me a lot of time and bother. NOT BELIEVE messages that say the restart of IIS or the application will pick up any changes to the environment variables - IT WILL NOT.

  There is a problem more annoying, and it's to make sure that you remove the spaces trrailing on behalf of the Service TNS odbc name box, but it was easier to drill down reletatively for, compared to having to restart the production server.

  Thanks ReubenC for your help. I didn't need to go down the road ODP.NET, but thanks for your suggestion. I wish only Oracle would be to write some notes about it, because I'm sure others will hit / have this problem too. It would also be too much to expect Oracle to include all DLLS in the download as well (!)

  In any case, I'm glad I'm on the right track.

• not able to connect to the database using the oracle instant client

  Hello
  
  I am not able to connect to the database using the instant oracle from my local PC client. They use to connect to the database files and sqlnet.ora files LDAP.ora. If I want to test the connection, I found this executable tns wasn't there, so not able to tnsping. So I'm not able to solve this problem.
  
  Please let me know if a solution for everything
  
  Client Oracle: oracle 10.2bFAT client 32-bit
  
  Platform: windows 7 64-bit
  
  Thank you
  Veera

  There is little that tnsping can do sqlplus can't.

  Instead of
  tnsping mydb.myorg.com
  Try
  sqlplus-s-L /@mydb.myorg.com
  or
  sqlplus-s-L user/[email protected]

  If you get
  ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified
  you know that the customer could not resolve 'mydb.myorg.com '.

  If you get
  ORA-12541: TNS:no listener
  then "mydb.myorg.com" could be resolved, but there is no listener it running.

  If you get
  ORA-12514: TNS:listener is not currently of service requested in connect descriptor
  then "mydb.myorg.com" could be solved, the listener is in place, and the database is out of service.

  If you get
  ORA-01017: name of user and password invalid. connection refused
  you know that 'mydb.myorg.com' has been successfully resolved, and the database is running.

  If you want more details, such as how and what "mydb.myorg.com" is resolved, turn the tracking by adding the following to "sqlnet.ora:
  TRACE_LEVEL_CLIENT = ADMIN
  TRACE_DIRECTORY_CLIENT = C:\TEMP (a writable directory)

  Then you will find lines like this in the trace file:

  -THE INFORMATION SOURCE PARAMETER FOLLOWS-
  Attempt to load system pfile source C:\oracle\network\admin\sqlnet.ora
  Source of the setting successfully loaded

  Attempt to load the local pfile source C:\Dokumente und Einstellungen\lanadvall\sqlnet.ora
  The parameter source has not been loaded.

  This shows you which configuration files are read, followed by the settings real read.

• 4.0 set up Instant Client

  Hello

  I can't use v4.0 because the JDBC driver cannot display a 11.2.0.2 XMLTYPE data database.

  I thought a workaroud could be to use the driver OIC/thickness

  Download sqldeveloper - 4.0.1.14.48 - x 64.zip (JDK included)

  Download instantclient-basic - windows.x 64 - 12.1.0.1.0.zip (Instant Client - Basic)

  Configure it suite http://www.thatjeffsmith.com/archive/2014/01/oracle-sql-developer-4-and-the-oracle-client/

  I can't start SQL Developer directly, because the path of the instant client will not be the first entry of client in my path variable, so I start with a batch script

  set path = T:\SQLDeveloper\instantclient_12_1; T:\SQLDeveloper\4.0.1\jdk\jre\bin; C:\Windows\System32; C:\Windows;...

  start T:\SQLDeveloper\4.0.1\sqldeveloper.exe

  In help > topic > properties: sqldeveloper.oci.available = true

  Select * from a table with XMLTYPE column is ok

  Select * views of the same table that returns the relational data to XML I get

  With 'use pilot OIC/thickness' enabled: no orageneric11 in java.library.path

  With 'use pilot OIC/thickness' disabled: only LOB or the storage of the chain is supported by thin XMLType

  Is this what I need?

  Concerning

  Marcus

  Totally hear you. Developer SQL uses an old JDBC driver to 3.2 vs 4. XML support can be very finicky. You see an example of this now unfortunately.

  "Installation steps:

  1. download the Instant Client packages appropriate for your platform. All installations REQUIRE the basic package.

  2 unzip the packages in a single directory as "instantclient.
  3. set the library load path in your environment in the directory in step 2 ("instantclient"). On many UNIX platforms, LD_LIBRARY_PATH is the appropriate environment variable. On Windows, path must be used.

• EBS 12.0.6 for AIX 64-bit, download?

  Hi all
  I'm looking for a link to download Oracle EBS 12.0.6 for AIX 64 bit,
  I already looked in the delivery, and I found only above provided.
  
  Thank you
  Kind regards
  
  Bruno

  Oracle has never published 12.0.6 as an installation package and is only available in version pack update (patch).

  Apps version 12.0.6 version update Pack available
  http://blogs.Oracle.com/stevenChan/entry/apps_release_1206_release_update_pack_now_avail

  Not sure why you need to have 12.0.x free Media Pack and not 12.1.1 but still want to get out of it, then you should request Oracle Support to send you 12.0.0 or 12.0.4 Media Pack.

  Thank you

• Instant Client connection problem - Excel 2007 for Oracle 10 g

  Dear users,
  
  I want help to connect Excel to Oracle.
  I use Excel 2007 (32-bit) on Windows Vista Enterprise 64-bit. I want to connect to a database 10g to Oracle through our local network using ODBC. I need to retrieve data once in an excel sheet.
  There is no firewall or connection between my current computer problems, problems as I can connect to my machine, using SQL developer as a local client to the Oracle database that is located on another machine on the network.
  I tried to make an ODBC connection, but Oracle is not listed as a driver.
  In my view, what ODBC is the best way to do it, but please correct me if I'm wrong.
  
  It is an Oracle 10 G database.
  I downloaded instantclient-basiclite - 64 - 11.2.0.2.0.zip a windows.x
  I also downloaded the additional ODBC components: * Instant Client Package - ODBC: extra to allow ODBC applications libraries.
  
  I unzipped in a folder called C:\instantclient_11_2
  The system path include one. I checked after reboot.
  I placed my tnsnames.ora (that I copied from the server) in this folder.
  I got it from the server: D:\Oracle\Ora10gR2DB\network\admin\tnsnames.ora
  
  I ran the exe "odbc_install" and he told me that the ODBC has been successfully intalled.
  
  When I went to the Control Panel, administrative tools, ODBC
  
  On the user dsn tab
  
  I added a new entry. I chose the Oracle driver (previously it was not in the list)
  
  Use the following values
  
  Data Source name: OracleL
  123 description
  The TNS Service name: I chose for my prod environment drop-down list. (There are two entrances with the name of the production, one uppercase and one lowercase)
  
  
  UserID: my user name
  
  I tried the connection Test and got this:
  
  Unable to connect

  If Excel is 32-bit (2007a) and the Oracle client libraries are 64-bit, it will not work. needs 32-bit 32-bit.
  You should probably remove current ic packages and get the 32-bit instead.
  Start over.

  On Windows x 64, to run the 32 - bit ODBC DSN/drivers, we need run the Windows\SysWoW64\odbcad32.exe tool.

• Using the Instant Client via OIC

  Hello world
  
  A developer says he has problem to connect to Oracle and I asked how do you connect from his pc. He said that it is "use Instant Client via OIC."
  
  Is this the normal stuff like Oracle_sid, tnsnames and sqlnet in the pc of the client or something more than that?
  
  Please enlighten me on this.
  
  Thank you.

  OIC is the Oracle Call Interface and Instant Client implements this API.

  There is a large painting of OIC and how it fits into the pile of products [url http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10729/ch7progrunicode.htm#i1005974] Oracle database access.

  Your application can be OIC based, as is the Sql * plus, .net Data provider, thick driver JDBC, etc. etc. (read the description following the figure for more examples).

• DBD::Oracle and instant client - can't find tnsnames.ora

  Hi all! :-)

  Guys, please, help!

  My OS: CentOS 6.6, i386

  Installed:

  Oracle - instantclient12.1 - basic - 12.1.0.2.0 - 1.i386

  Oracle - instantclient12.1 - devel - 12.1.0.2.0 - 1.i386

  Oracle - instantclient12.1 - sqlplus - 12.1.0.2.0 - 1.i386

  Perl-DBI-1, 609 - 4.el6.i686

  and last perl-DBD-Oracle-1, 74-CPAN.

  Apache 2.2.15, mod_perl 2.0.4

  SELinux disabled.

  ORACLE_HOME = usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client, LD_LIBRARY_PATH = /usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client/lib

  tnsnames.ora exist in /usr/lib/oracle/12.1/client/network/admin

  I wrote a simple perl script to test the connection:

  use strict;
  use DBI;
  
  my $dbh = DBI ->connect("dbi:Oracle:crm", 'login', 'password',{RaiseError => 1} );
  $dbh->disconnect();
  
  

  When I try to run script command line - everything isn't ok, no errors (Yes, I can run queries, etc... )

  But!

  With apache, I get an error:

  DBI connect('crm','login',...) failed: ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified (DBD ERROR: OCIServerAttach) in /opt/otrs/bin/cgi-bin/oratest.pl on line 9

  I am trying to add ORACLE_HOME with PerlSetEnv and script see (I checked through % ENV), but no luck.

  Probably easier to use EZconnect instead of tnsnames.ora:

  $machine = 'my.oracle.database.com';
   $port = 1521;
   $sid = 'my_sid';
   $dbh = DBI->connect("dbi:Oracle://$machine:$port/$sid", $user, $pass) ||
    die "Failed to connect: $DBI::errstr\n";
