Windows :: Different Versions Of Oracle Between Server And Client?
Apr 11, 2012
I'd like to know if it's possible to install a client with Windows 7 (64bits) can be installed with Oracle 11gR2 (32 bits) when the server is still with Oracle 10.1.0.2 ?
I had installed Oracle 11g R1 on windows system where Oracle 10g R2 also installed. As I required both versions parallel on same server, both are installed on different Oracle homes.
Configured listener.ora & tnsnames.ora files on 11g (path) with 10g details also in same file, checked the listener status, its �READY� & windows services also started but now only I am able to connect Oracle 11g & not able to connect Oracle 10g.
how to configure so that I can able to connect both VERSIONS separately on the same server.
I have installed an application suite (AppX) on Windows 2008 Server which has both Windows applications and a web GUI element (ASP.NET running through IIS 7.5).
The Windows apps are in both VB and .NET and compiled specifically for x86 (due to COM component dependencies). I have installed the "Oracle Database 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.3/10.2.0.4)Enterprise/Standard Edition for Microsoft Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7" Oracle Client on the Windows 2008 Server.
After installation AppX windows modules all worked fine with the Oracle Db but the Web Application was getting the following error:
System.Data.OracleClient requires Oracle client software version 8.1.7 or greater.
After a bit of research I found a few articles suggesting setting up the ORACLE_HOME directory in the Windows Environment variables. So I tried setting up the ORACLE_HOME environment setting and had some success as the AppX web application worked fine! However, the Windows apps of AppX were now broken and returning the error:
System.Exception: OCIEnvCreate failed with return code -1 but error message text was not available. at System.Data.OracleClient.OciHandle..ctor(OciHandle parentHandle, HTYPE handleType, MODE ocimode, HANDLEFLAG handleflags) at System.Data.OracleClient.OciEnvironmentHandle..ctor(MODE environmentMode, Boolean unicode) at System.Data.OracleClient.OracleInternalConnection.OpenOnLocalTransaction(String userName, String password, String serverName, Boolean integratedSecurity, Boolean unicode, Boolean omitOracleConnectionName) [code].........
So I am struggling to get both the Windows and Web App both working on the same Windows 2008 Server.
Can i have 2 versions of oracle database installed on same server under one user on AIX also on windows,
Currently we have oracle 10.2.0.4.0 installed on AIX server, can we install oracle 11gR2 on the same server under on user, & both the versions will be in use.
How to manage the profile of the user having 2 oracle versions on AIX & on windows how to handle it.
We are migratingfrom [IBM P5 - AIX 5.3 - Oracle DB 10.2.0.1 64bit]to [IBM P7 - AIX 6.1 - Oracle DB 10.2.0.5 64bit]
The new database is already up and running, our next step now is the following: 1. Create Tablespaces (done) 2. Export the Database from P5 3. Import the dump to P7.
We have this following options:
I. Use a Windows XP workstation 32bit with Oracle 10.2.0.1 Database software to export from P5, then import the dump to P7. (Export/Import Utility 10.2.0.1 Windows 32bit) II. Use the Export Utility of the P7 (10.2.0.5 AIX 64bit) to do the export and import. III. Use the Export Utility of P5 (10.2.0.1 AIX 64bit) then use the Import Utility of P7 (10.2.0.5 AIX 64bit)
BTW, our colleague tried to do the following: A. Use Windows - Export Utility 10.1.0.2.0 - 32bit to make a dump of our database (Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 AIX 64bit) B. Use Windows - Import Utility 10.1.0.2.0 - 32bit to import the dump file from step A to our new database (Oracle 10.2.0.1.0 AIX 64bit)
But after issuing imp system/password@NEWDB file=(a.dmp, b.dmp... c.dmp) full=y ignore=y statistics=none
The import seems to hang here...importing SYSTEM's objects into SYSTEM
is there a oratab file in window versions of oracle 11g xe?I found out that, oratab is:
associate with ORACLE_SID, ORACLE_HOME value, and you can input parameter like:
orcl:/opt/oracle/product/10.2.0/db_1:Y
to allow the datebase to be started when the server reboot.I am thinking for window versions, they are using 'SERVICES' right? That's why no oratab files?
We have a .NET application on windows server 2008 32bit using the stored procedures on an Oracle 10g environment. We are trying to deploy the .NET application onto a 64bit x86 Windows server 2008.
We face an error trying to install the x64 version of the Oracle 10g client on windows 2008. The error we get is Problem signature:
Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: javaw.exe
Is the x64 version of the Oracle 10g client certified for Windows 2008? Has anyone successfully installed the 64bit version of the oracle client on win2008?
We have a workaround in place with 32 bit version of the client running with the 32 bit version of the .NET application on x64 win2008. However to maximize the infrastructure we need to use the 64 bit version or we would have to turn to MSSQL Server .
I Develop Application with C# . I want to connect from Client to Server.
my connection string is ""Data Source=192.168.100.50:1521/XE;User Id=system;Password=system;Min Pool Size=10;Connection Lifetime=120;Connection Timeout=60;Incr Pool Size=5;Decr Pool Size=2;""
When exectue this Connection on Server ، all things OK but when execute on Client this error accure :
"Unhandled exception has occurred in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. The type initializer for 'OracelExperss' threw an exception"
I have a VB application which uses oo4o to connect to Oracle database (10g) using Oracle client v 8.1.7. All was working well till we migrated to windows 7. On windows 7 (64 bit), we have oracle client 11g (64 bit). but the Vb application cannot make connection with the database although i can query the database using SQL Plus.
I have been researching this issue and trying to install any Oracle 10 or 11 client on my new Windows 7 (64-bit) computer for two days. I read on the following link:
[URL].......
that such a client exists. where I can get it and whether any special steps are required to perform the install? I have tried the following:
Install 10gR2 and 11gR1(for x64) after downloading from Oracle. In each case, I ran the setup file from the zip file and tried again by unzipping and running the setup.exe as the administrator. In most cases, I got the error from the compatibility check that the Oracle install would not work with 6.1 (NT6.1, I think).
I tried one suggestion of modifying the refhost.xml file to list 6.1 as an acceptable OS, but then my install failed when oui.exe quit running.
We currently have a windows 2008 server running our virtualization administration application (VCenter server 4.0) which uses a 10g client 32bit ODBC driver to connect to our 10g database server. This is the emulated 32bit driver in sysWOW64 folder.
I need to upgrade VCenter, which needs to use the 64bit 10g ODBC driver. Have installed the 102010_win64_x64_client on a test server which gives me the correct 64 bit driver.
My question is can i install two clients onto the same windows 2008 server without causing operational issues while i run pre upgrade checks?
We are unable install oracle 10g client it is showing error error in writing directory c:Docume~1admin~1locals~1emporainstall2012-01-04_08-05-38PM. ensure that this directory is writable and has atlest 45MB of disk space . Installation cannot continue
How oracle deals with the setting of init.ora parameter compatible.
e.g. we have DB Version=10.2.0.4 compatible=10.2.0
what is the possible leak for us ? Is there any description about the features changed in 10.2 up to 10.2.0.4 in all steps - so that we can check out which functions we do not have.
I am using Windows 7 and oracle 10g; From sqlplus* I can not use editor (using ed). but when I see the variable from DEFINE.. It shows that default editor is notepad..
I can use editor in winxp.How to get (use) editor ?
I'm trying to setup ODBC connection for my Oracle client while installing BO. Following are the steps I followed.
1. Downloaded the Oracle Client from the link [URL] . From that downloaded two zip files. “Instant Client Package – Basic Lite" and “Instant Client Package – ODBC”. Extracted the Zip Files to the folder I created under C: as C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2.
2. Since I'm setting up in ODBC in windows 2008 64-bit R2. I was advised to install 32 bit . So in cmd prompt, from the location C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2, ran odbc_install.
3.Created the Environment variables as i) *TNS_ADMIN - C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2* ii) *Oracle_Home - C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2* iii) *Edited the PATH variable with ;C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2*
4. Created the tnsnames.ora file in C:Oracleinstantclient_11_2. Its content are as follows. clarity_dev = (DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = claritydev.vip.its.ebay.com )(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = clarity) ) )
5. From the folder %windir%sysWOW64odbacd32.exe, Opens ODBC Data Source Adminsitartor. In that I found my Oracle in instantclient_11_2 and added following details.
Data Source Name : claritydev.vip.its.com TNS Service Name : clarity_dev User Id: clarity1
When I test connect it, I get error *ORA-12154:* * TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified*
I've seen FAQs for this error, but couldn't find anything which solves. Is there any steps I'm missing? I've checked in DB properties. It uses SID not the Service Name.
I have an Oracle server with Oracle 11g R2 and need to install its clients over several desktops.I am using 2 separate installs, but I think that this might be redundant.The 2 setups I'm using are:
- ODAC 11.2 Release 3 and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio (11.2.0.2.1) - 64-bit Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) Downloads
- Is really necessary to install both of the 2 setup, or there is something I can use once instead of it?
I have an Oracle database (9.2.0.7) installed on a HP-UX server.When trying to access this database from another HP-UX or Linux server, connection is fine. But when trying to connect from a Windows based client, connection is very slow (almost 1 minute to return the result of a 'select count(*)' like query, which is immediate from the Linux client).
Here are some facts I can add :
- Clients and servers are on the same network segment (it is not a network matter)
- No matter which client version I use, there no difference
- I tried to know what happens on the Oracle server when performing my sample query using tusc command : the result is that the server is performing exactly the same actions when sending my query from a Linux client or a Windows client
- The only relevant difference seems to be the client OS
I have Oracle 11g database home in my 64 bit Windows 7 machine. However, now i would like to install Oracle 10.2.0 client as well. I tried giving a separate location.
But for some reason, whenever i start the Setup and run the Administrator Type, the installation just skips without giving any errors. It just creates the inventory folder in the specified path. It goes to the Product-Specific Prerequisite Checks and exits without giving any warnings or errors.
I recently got a new PC at work which is Windows 7 64 bit.
We run lots of crystal reports(1000's) that pull data from an oracle back end.
I have installed the Oracle Client 32 bit on this machine and have no problem connecting to the database and pulling back data.
However, when I use crystal to access the TNS Name it gives me the following error.
[URL]
My path variable on the PC has "C:oracleproduct10.2.0client_1BIN;".
I also tried to create and ODBC using the 32bit ODBC on the machine and that connects fine, but when you try to access the DSN from Crystal, I still get the 12154 error.
