Why would running see the 'idle' instance when you connect / as sysdba?

I am a little confused on this one.
I have an oracle SID instance is say, 'FRED '.

I can conect to my local box via sqlplus connect system@fred and do all the things I need. Fred is indeed running.

However, if I go directly to logon to the box, I put the sid
export ORACLE_SID = fred

sqlplus/nolog

Connect / as sysdba

It is for me a 'connected to an idle instance.


Any ideas on that?

Thanks in advance,

Cayenne

Cayenne,

The post, it seems you're on some * nix platform and on these operating systems, FRED is waaaay different from fred, FreD and all other combinations possible. When you mentioned the 'bad' SID, oracle has simply assumed that the SID said is not started and shows you the State of rest. In other words, this means for oracle, you must always start the db. It would be even if you change SID to rock, tom, robert or same aman too :-).

  • Can not see the security headers when you connect the OSB header

    Hi all

    I have a proxy service which I enclose GOSA oracle/wss_username_token_service_policy policy

    I test the OSB project proxy service in the SOAP-ui and when I pass the user name and password in the security header, be invoked successfully. So far so good.

    the entrance of SOAP I'm passing to the proxy service is as below...

    -----------------

    within the stream of messages of proxy service, I log the header as $header, but I don't see the username and password that I'm passing for a request in the log file, the header is seen empty element something like below...

    ------

    < soapenv:Header some names matter > < / soapenv:Header >

    -------

    In the PS transport configuration tab, I put 'Yes' to get all headers, even I can't see the user name and password.

    Help, please.

    Thank you.

    So I can't have the password in the message flow?

    Would you really? Will vulnerable OSB security and therefore only the user name and optional directors are included in $inbound.

    In addition, why the username and password are not observed in the $header?

    $header holds the SOAP headers, while the security headers are not part of the SOAP headers, and therefore, these are not included in $header.

  • Cannot see the whole picture when you move into a smaller template with the direct Selection tool

    Hello!

    I recently got my laptop cleaned in preparation for examinations and such (I'm in high school). As I belong to art class, when Basic programs have been re-installed we also got the Adobe programs, but we got the CC 2015 version instead of the version CS5, we had earlier.

  • Why focus/cursor selects the address bar when you click in a new page?

    This happens all the time, but most of the time... When I browse a site by clicking on the links, whenever a new page load the address bar is chosen to start typing. When I go to scroll down (using the down arrow/page keys) he'll scroll rather recent page URL in the address bar, instead of scrolling to the bottom of the page.
    Looks like this behavior just started today...

    To be clear, that's not something to do with the tabs, pages open in the same tab by clicking on the links at left will also affect the cursor to the address bar.

    Have you checked for problems caused by plugins?

    In the Firefox Safe mode, these changes are effective:

    • all extensions are disabled (subject: addons)
    • Default theme is used (no persona)
    • userChrome.css and userContent.css are ignored (chrome folder)
    • default toolbars is used (localstore file - safe.rdf)

    Hey there mwwatkins.

    Just a few things seems to me first, as Web sites are cool before you can complete the entry of your details. First thing I would check if something suspisious was happaning on an internet banking site would be to ensure it's the correct Web site and that it is safe. This can be done by seeing if there is a small green padlock at the top right of the window next to the address of websites, ensure it is there and the name of the company that has applied for security is the same as you try to access as natwest banks PLC.

    If it's all guarantee them and correct then I will seek to update flash, as many banks now use this plug-in to improve the user experience, if this is the cause of your problem, so he did not this.

    Let me know if this solves your problem, but I advise to contact your bank, they have good representatives who are experts in dealing with problems of connection and I would hate for you to have problems with such a newspaper in.

  • I'm trying to update the synchronization from the old to the new. When you connect, I get the message (in German) "error 500. Oops, something went wrong. Let's fix this. "

    With "login", I mean the page that appears when I click on "Options-> Configure sync" (or however it's called in English).

    I have one of my computers disconnected from the synchronization of the former. And this is the latest version of Firefox. What I didn't, it's step 2 "unplug ALL devices". It's impossible because I often changed the Linux Distro on many computers in the past years and I synced Firefox everywhere and in the (old) list of devices ago still showing that devices exist no more long time, but you cannot delete them.

    So, to be safe, I have not disconnected Firefox on my other computers (and always use the old sync), because then I'm afraid I'll lose ALL my data.

    I have a problem on one of my computers laptops, Ubuntu 14.04, V 38.0.

    If your mouse is a USB model, it can be useful to check the latest drivers for your motherboard (chipset) Vista to the support site for the manufacturer of the computer. Also, since you're here you can check for the other updated drivers for your system, i.e., audio, LAN (network), etc.

    Problem of not seeing list drop-down connection to the wireless network when checking connections network - pc windows 7.

    I just installed a Belkin modem-router - which went well. Can I connect WiFi gadgets etc. I can also connect to the internet via a network cable to my pc. I also installed a belkin usb wireless adapter and in Device Manager, says it is enabled and works.

    My problem is, I have no way of choice get a WiFi PC to display in the list (from the notification area) and cannot get the pc to give me options to create a wi - fi connection. The more I get to try to do that is "unexpected error"!

    If someone could help on this - I would be very grateful

    Good news - update of my ongoing saga with this Belkin modem/router.

    Got the pc to see wi - fi now. It turned out to be the Zone Alarm! As the router has a firewall, I uninstalled Zone Alarm completely. Also, I went into the properties of belkin usb and checked it was the most recent drivers, it does not so I installed them.

    So far so good

    Thanks for the help

    Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro on Windows 7.

    Installation: I created a doc of bid that allows the end user to complete the first page (request for quote) and auto information fills in the next 3 pages, carrying contractors names and info to separate bid documents.

    Each of the contractor bid documents must out individually, so I check out them for distribution.

    The problem is that the details of the offer requires sometimes scroll down in the text box, which has been activated and works well on the original document, the information disappears when you click the check box in the checked out document.

  • Why the cursor jumps in the name of the password box when you sign in to Gmail?

    When you connect to Gmail, I often (8/10) find that while I'm still typing the user name, the cursor is passed to the password box. The result is that the user name is inserted into the password field. I then have to click on the user name box and re-enter the user name.

    Yes, it's very annoying!

    I suspect a timing problem, otherwise said, Google scripts are still ongoing for a while after the page is displayed and when the scripts see a non-empty value, the user name, it moves the focus to the password even if you are in the middle of typing.

    If I wait a few seconds before you begin to type in the user name field, there is no problem. (I have not experienced the time).
