Hi All,

I'm helping out a friend of mine who's having problems with connecting from
an NT system to an HP system running Oracle 8.0.5 (don't ask!).

They keep getting an 12154 - Could not resolve service name error.. The
TNSNAMES.ORA file looks OK, and I feel there is something iffy about their
listener set up. Here's there set-up:

TNSNAMES.ORA:

extproc_connection_data =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = LIVE))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = extproc))
  )

LIVE =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host= l1000)(Port= 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = LIVE))
  )
TEST =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host= l1000)(Port= 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = TEST))
  )
ARCHIVE =
  (DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host= l1000)(Port= 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA = (SID = ARCHIVE))
  )

LISTENERORA:

LISTENER =
  (ADDRESS_LIST =
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL= IPC)(KEY= FROUDE))
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL= IPC)(KEY= PNPKEY))
(ADDRESS= (PROTOCOL= TCP)(Host= l1000)(Port= 1521))
  )
SID_LIST_LISTENER =
  (SID_LIST =
(SID_DESC =
  (GLOBAL_DBNAME= l1000.)
  (ORACLE_HOME= /usr/oracle/product/8.0.5)
  (SID_NAME = LIVE)
)
(SID_DESC =
  (GLOBAL_DBNAME= l1000.)
  (ORACLE_HOME= /usr/oracle/product/8.0.5)
  (SID_NAME = TEST)
)
(SID_DESC =
  (GLOBAL_DBNAME= l1000.)
  (ORACLE_HOME= /usr/oracle/product/8.0.5)
  (SID_NAME = ARCHIVE)
)
(SID_DESC =
  (SID_NAME = extproc)
  (ORACLE_HOME = /usr/oracle/product/8.0.5)
  (PROGRAM = extproc)
)
  )
STARTUP_WAIT_TIME_LISTENER = 0
CONNECT_TIMEOUT_LISTENER = 10
TRACE_LEVEL_LISTENER = OFF

When he tries to connect user/[EMAIL PROTECTED] the connection fails - and the
same for TEST and ARCHIVE. The thing that sticks out to me is the
GLOBAL_DBNAME parameter being set to l1000 for every instance - do you
think this could be causing the problem?

Is there anything else that catches your eye?

Cheers!

Mark

'internal' role and 9i

2003-11-18 Thread Barry Deevey
Hello all,

I'm attempting to import into 9.2.0.1.0 from 7.3.4 and I'm getting loads of
the same error:

IMP-00017: following statement failed with ORACLE error 9275:
 GRANT SELECT ON DOWNLOAD_SEQ TO INTERNAL
IMP-3: ORACLE error 9275 encountered
ORA-09275: CONNECT INTERNAL is not a valid DBA connection

I'm aware that connect internal does not exist in 9i, but 'internal' is a
role.

So as a test I dropped the role, recreated it and then manually tried to
grant it something - The same error occurred:

SQL select * from dba_roles where role like 'INTER%';

ROLE   PASSWORD
-- 
INTERNAL   NO

SQL
SQL drop role internal;

Role dropped.

SQL create role internal;

Role created.

SQL GRANT SELECT ON DOWNLOAD_SEQ TO INTERNAL;
GRANT SELECT ON DOWNLOAD_SEQ TO INTERNAL
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-09275: CONNECT INTERNAL is not a valid DBA connection

SQL

This doesn't make any sense to me.  Can anybody help to shed any light on
this??

TIA for any response, they're much appreciated.

Cheers,
Barry.

RE: 'internal' role and 9i

2003-11-18 Thread Barry Deevey
As of yet I'm unsure how the application would be affected if I rename the
role - I need to do some investigation.

I tried this in Oracle 8 and it worked fine - It just seems to be oracle 9
that doesn't like it.

I've also checked v$reserved_words and INTERNAL is not listed, INTERNAL_USE
and INTERNAL_CONVERT are.  As a test I created roles for INTERNAL_USE and
INTERNAL_CONVERT, hoping that it would not allow me to create them, but it
did, so I then ran the grant again and it also allowed it.

Now I'm really confused!!

Barry,

Why make life difficult?  It's just a role, not a data
object referenced by applications (hopefully).  Change it's
name to something that is not a reserved word and move on.
 There is a list of reserved words in the SQL Language
reference.

Hope this helps...

RE: 'internal' role and 9i

2003-11-18 Thread Barry Deevey
This would explain why it worked when I tried it on oracle 8 then.

The developers that originally created the application left quite a while
ago, so I don't think I'll be able to ask them why they did it this way.
But basically you're saying that it shouldn't have been done like this and
now it needs to be changed.

Not the answer I was hoping for, but at least now I know!!

Thanks for your help all.

Yong,

It seems to me that you are missing the point here.  The real point is that
you should not have granted select on some table to internal - ever.  And
a new release caught you on this mistake.  And now, you have to fix it.  It
is not an Oracle problem, but a mis-use of an Oracle internal user.

What you did implies that you are running sql statements while connected as
internal.  Why in the world you would take this chance is beyond me -
strictly a no-no.

Tim,

I checked v$reserved_words. At least in 9.2.0.1, INTERNAL is not in there.
Oracle should address this issue.

When I trace the SQL GRANT SELECT ON SOMETABLE TO INTERNAL, it stops in
parsing.

Nonetheless, it's confusing to say the least to create a role called
internal.

I had 
this problem last week.

There 
is a bug when installing Oracle client 8.1.* onto a Pentium 4machine with

client cd onto the machine, rename symcjit.dll to something else and then run 
the setup program from the pc.

Oracle client 8.0.5 to 8.1.7

2002-03-08 Thread Barry Deevey

Hi everybody,

we've recently upgraded our Oracle client from 8.0.5 to 8.1.7

SQL Worksheet does not seem to have any line numbers - So, if you run any
code, it'll give you the line number of the error line, but the code above
does not have any line numbers displayed, making it very difficult to find
the error line within the code.

Has anybody come accross this before and found any workarounds, or is it
something you just have to get on with??

Thanks for any replies, they're much appreciated.

 Hi all, 
 
 I am trying to write a script in unix that determines if a specific oracle

 connects 
 its up, if it doesn't then its unavailable. However, the problem is that 
 when it isn't up, the script hangs and does not return anything - I think 
 that this is because sqlplus by default gives you 3 attempts to logon, so 
 even though the logon attempt failed, it is waiting for you to try again,
 so 
 unfortunately I'm not getting a failed return code. 
 If anybody could tell me how to change this so that it only allows 1 login
 
 attempt before 'kicking you out' or whether there is a better method to 
 finding out the status of an instance, I would be extremely grateful to

Re: Passing a parameter containing a space to sqlplus

Hi gurus,

I'm trying to pass a parameter from unix into a sqlplus script.  The
parameter contains a space, i.e. JOB SERVER  I have tried passing it with

Passing a parameter containing a space to sqlplus

2001-09-10 Thread Barry Deevey

Hi gurus,

I'm trying to pass a parameter from unix into a sqlplus script.  The
parameter contains a space, i.e. JOB SERVER  I have tried passing it with
both single and double quotations, but the sql script only accepts the first
word in the string.  It works fine if the parameter does not contain a
space.

Can anybody tell me what I'm not doing wrong??

TIA - Your replies are much appreciated.

Best Regards,

Barry
