TOAD And Multiple Tnsnames.ora?
Jan 4, 2011
I have several environment that are physically not connected to each other (except network). Each environment has its own tnsnames.ora. I have downloaded every tnsnames.ora into C:\OraHome1\network\ADMIN, so TOAD opens connect dialog using the file currently named 'tnsnames.ora'. Every time I need to switch to a different environment (and to different connection string) I have to manually rename the 'tnsnames.ora' into something like 'tnsnames.ora.environmentA' and rename another 'tnsnames.ora.environmentB' into 'tnsnames.ora'.
This is inconvenient and time consuming task as I have to restart TOAD after every rename.if there is an easier way to use multiple tnsnames.ora without renaming those.

Is there a way to put on tnsnames.ora the alternative IP of a server that if the first dont respond it tries the ip of the second? Example:
ORA92 =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
try
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.0.1)(PORT = 1521))
except
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 10.0.0.2)(PORT = 1521))
end )
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVICE_NAME = tsh1.world)
)
)

Possible to call a tnsnames file from master tnsnames like the principle of ifile in the init.ora...My primary tnsnames.ora has a lot of development entries which are repointed frequently, it would work with logistics if I could manage these in a second tns file and load from primary so when my dev instances are repointed I'm not editing the master tnsnames

I am completely new to anything with Oracle or OCI,
Also, basic information:
Language: C
Oracle DB version: 11g
Trying to use OCI
I am trying to write a client that connects to an Oracle database and gets some information (obviously). On the OCILogon() step, I need the username, password, and db address. However, someone said there will be a tnsnames.ora file, and that should be enough.I've searched online and I have not been able to find anything that relates OCILogon() to tnsnames.ora, so here are my questions:
1) Can OCILogon() use tnsnames.ora at all?
2) Is there any other function that I should use instead of OCILogon() that would work with the tnsnames.ora

we have an issue when we are using sql loader with address at command line as below.
sqlldr user/pass@"(DESCRIPTION\=(ADDRESS\=(PROTOCOL\=TCP)(HOST\=host)(PORT\=1521))(CONNECT_DATA\=(SERVER\=DEDICATED)(SERVICE_NAME\=sname)))" control=ctl_filename log=file_name
Ideally we need to include description in tnsnames.ora but its taking time to contact DBA here. Hence we tried with this work around. The same is working fine if we are using sqlplus but sqlloader gives this error.

How to find out the database TNSNAMES.ora file if there are multiple .ora files with different names in Oracle_home/network/admin directory ?

we have an environment with many Oracle databases in different versions (v8, V9, V10 and V11). Besides that, there are many versions of the Oracle Client in use, ranging from V6 to V11. Many of the clients have a TNSnames.ORA and as was to eb expected, many of these are old as well with a lot of (by now) invalid information in there.
Is there any reasonable maximum size to the TNSnames.ORA file?What are the consequences from going over the max size? Are there alternatives to using TNSnames.ora which you would recommend?

I installed Oracle 10g. Then I created an instance. After the instance was created, I went to OEM to look at the instance, and noticed it wasn't turned on. I went to the network folder and noticed I only had sqlnet.ora; no Listener.ora or tsnames.ora. I put the files there, but when I try to startup the instance, the password and usernames I created with the database don't work. Agent Connection to Instance failed Listener down

I want to be able to use "localhost" in my tnsnames.ora and listener.ora files but for some reason its not working.
just concentrating on the listener, when I have the following in my listener.ora the database doesnt register with the listener:
########################################
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = localhost)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))))
########################################
This is even after using the "alter system register" command. I'm checking whether my database is registering using "lsnrctl services".
With the following in listener.ora all is fine:
########################################
LISTENER =
(DESCRIPTION_LIST =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.10.152)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))))
########################################
So why wont it work with localhost?! I'm running Oracle 11G on XP Pro.

I am having problem with my tnsnames.ora file.seems the file cannot handle connection information for more than one DB. It worked fine in the beginning, after that, whenever i had to connect to a DB, i had to keep switching and renaming 5 files, with respect to whichever database I want to connect to. this is the entries in the file, for 2 D's and it wont work, with just one in each it works, but not for two...
newtpt =
(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS =
(COMMUNITY = tcp)
(PROTOCOL = TCP)
(HOST = ipadd/virtualname)
(PORT = 1521)
[code]....
I am sure, nothing wrong with teh IP/virtualname, cause with just one of these in the file, they work excellent.I tried leaving line between the connection strings for each DB, without leavin lines, etc..

How to merge multiple rows into single row (but multiple columns) efficiently.
For example

23 asdc 1 Location USA NM ABQ Four Seasons 87106
23 asdc 1 Stats 2300 91.7 8.2 85432

65 affc 2 Stats 5510 42.7 46 9999
65 affc 2 Audit 1996 July 172 1100
where different attributes mean different thing for each Information_type. For example for Information_Type=Location
Attribute_1 means Country
Attribute_2 means State and so on.
For example for Information_Type=Stats
Attribute_1 means Population
Attribute_2 means American Ethnicity percentage and so on.
I want to create a view that shows like below:
IDVal IDDesc IDNum Country State City Hotel ZipCode Population American% Other% Area Audit Year AuditMonth Audit Type AuditTime

Im getting this error when trying to connect toad to my test database using virtualbox. This is my first time trying to do this on a Mac as well:
java.sql.SQLRecoverableException: IO Error: The Network Adapter could not establish the connection
The settings in toad are correct as far as host, port #, and sid. My listener is up, and it is registered with the database. My tnsnames.ora file is correct. No firewall. I can ping my virtualbox from my local machine. I placed my tnsnames.ora file on my local machine, and tried to connect that way as well. I have no clue what else the Network adapter is looking for.

I can work with 'straight' query's etc., but now I want to make a query with a loop. I have made a simple one to demonstrate what I want but the real one is working is working by it self but I want to get it work with a loop.
This is the simpel version:
DECLARE
P_UID NUMBER;
Max_UID NUMBER := 42220;
BEGIN
P_UID := 42210;
LOOP
select *
from contract lc
where lc.UIDCONTRACT = P_UID;
P_UID := P_UID + 1;
EXIT WHEN P_UID > Max_UID;
END LOOP;
END;
The error I get is:
Line 10, column 9:
PLS-00428: an INTO clause is expected in this SELECT Statement.
So I know you can declare a variable and then CONTRACTID INTO v_contractID.
But if I have to put every field in a variable what is then the advantage of a loop. So I expect that I'm on the wrong road and not understand how this works.

I'm using Oracle10.0 as database for my project and I have installed Toad as front end tool for the Oracle. Now I want to access the database in the network using the Toad.
My question is, is it compulsory that oracle should be installed in every system to access Toad or any thing can I change in the server system to access the database from other systems in the Network.
