Oracle client compatibility with Windows XP
Hi According to Metalink note 161546.1 you need at least the 9.0.1 Oracle client for Windows XP. We are currently using the 8.1.7 client to go against 8.1.7 databases and 7.3.4 databases. Does anyone know of any issues when you use the 9 client against 7.3.4 databases?

Oracle9iAS and proxy servers
Hi I have used Oracle8i but I am new to the Oracle9iAS world. I would like to set up a proxy server outside a firewall which routes to an Oracle9iAS server inside the firewall. Can the proxy server just be a basic Apache install, or are their benefits/requirements to using 9iAS (maybe the core or minimal edition) as the proxy? Can anyone point me at some documentation on this topic, as nothing came up on my MetaLink search except numerous references to the "Proxy log on failed" problem.

Oracle and LDAP servers
Hi In reading MetaLink I have come up with the following list of LDAP servers that are certified for use with Oracle. in 8.1.7 - OID, NDS, Active Directories and iPlanet in 9i - OID, Active Directories Can anyone update this? When they say an LDAP is certified for use with Oracle does this mean that the Oracle Internet Directory C API and PL/SQL API(dbms_ldap) will work against them? Or does it just mean that the OID can sync to it. My real question is if I want to use iPlanet or some such beast how do I identify, and authorize Oracle database users?

RE: Oracle8i and LDAP
Hi Well I have partially answered my own question. I see in the Net8 manual that it can use an LDAP server to replace Oracle Names and lookup connect strings for service names. However I am still not sure if Oracle8i can authenticate a username and password in an LDAP. If it can, does anyone know how it queries the LDAP. What I really want to know is whether Oracle has any specific requirements that an LDAP server would need to be able to handle. This will help us choose an Oracle compatible LDAP. I have found a chart indicating that OID is included with Oracle9iAS EE. -Original Message- Sent: Tuesday, January 15, 2002 4:02 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hi Does Oracle8i come with any built in LDAP functions or do you have to write your own functions to search and update an LDAP directory?

Hi The history for this question is incomplete but I will add this thought anyway. When installing on AIX boxes Oracle will not install java due to license restrictions. I am not sure if your error is during installation or after. The HTTP server may not work because there was no jre or jdk in $ORACLE_HOME/Apache/.

RE: Differences between Oracle JDBC thin and thick drivers
Hi I believe the difference is that the OCI drivers use SQL*Net or NET8 or whatever they call it now, whereas the thin driver does not require SQL*Net on the client machine. Ben Poels Sr. Technical Analyst Queen's University -Original Message- Avrami Sent: Tuesday, April 09, 2002 4:29 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Hello all, I have a question concerning the Oracle JDBC thin vs. thick drivers and how they might affect operations from an application perspective. We're in a Solais 8/Oracle 8.1.7.2 environment. We have several applications on several servers connecting to the Oracle database. For redundancy, we're looking into setting up TAF (transparent application failover). Currently, some of our apps use the Oracle JDBC thin drivers to talk to the database, with a connection string that like this: jdbc:oracle:thin:@host:port:ORACLE_SID In a disaster recovery mode, where we would switch the database from one server to another, the host name in the above string would become invalid. That means we have to shut down our application servers and restart them with an updated string. Using the Oracle OCI (thick) driver though, allows us to connect to a Net8 service instead of a specific server: jdbc:oracle:oci8:@NET8_SERVICE_NAME Coupled with the FAILOVER=ON option configured in Net8, it is then possible to direct a connection from the first server to the failover database on another server. This is exactly what we would like to do. My question is, from an application perspective, how is the Oracle thick driver different from the thin driver? If everything else is "equal" (i.e. the thick driver is compatible with the app servers) would there be something within the the thick/OCI driver that could limit functionality vs. the thin driver? My understand, which obviously is sketchy, is that the thick driver is a superset of the thin driver. If this is the case, and for example if all database connections were handled through a configuration file with the above OCI connection string, then theoretically the thick driver should work. If anyone has any info on this that they can share, it would be greatly appreciated.

SSL and non-SSL requests on same Apache server in 9iAS?
Hi, I want to host SSL and non-SSL requests on one physical server running one 9iAS. After installing 9iAS the httpd.conf file specifies by default that it is listening on port . Later on in httpd.conf it has an SSL directive that says it's listening on port 80 and 443. Does this mean that this one Apache server can service non-SSL requests on and SSL requests on 443 at the same time? There is a document on Metalink(135231.1) that describes how to run two Apache servers in one 9iAS home. Again what is not clear to me is whether or not one could be handling SSL and the other non-SSL. Anyone have any recommendations on how to do this? I may also be asked to host 40-bit and 128-bit encryption on the same web site. Again any recommendations? Thanks. ====== Ben Poels - Senior Technical Analyst - Queen's University at Kingston Phone: 613.533.2449 Fax: 613.533.2168 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] == -- Please see the official ORACLE-L FAQ: http://www.orafaq.com -- Author: Ben Poels INET: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fat City Network Services-- (858) 538-5051 FAX: (858) 538-5051 San Diego, California-- Public Internet access / Mailing Lists To REMOVE yourself from this mailing list, send an E-Mail message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (note EXACT spelling of 'ListGuru') and in the message BODY, include a line containing: UNSUB ORACLE-L (or the name of mailing list you want to be removed from).

Hundreds of schemas in one instance?
Hi Our university wants to set up a server that will provide groups on campus with a standard set of services for web hosting, data collection or whatever they want to do. As much as possible each user should have their own isolated chunk of the server. An Oracle database will sit in the background to provide whatever database services they need. My thought is to go with one instance with a unique schema, including separate tablespaces/datafiles, for each user. Some of the pros for this are: - easy set up for new users - easy software upgrades - simplified tuning, backups, monitoring, auditing - user isolation, especially disk space usage - multiple instances would use far more memory Some cons are: - everyone must use the same release of the software - database down time affects everyone - might run into system maximums, for example max. number of datafiles - an enormous SYSTEM tablespace Has anyone had to this kind of thing? Any comments or suggestions?

RE: Hundreds of schemas in one instance?
Hi The assumption is that every user of this system will have totally unique requirements. There will be no data sharing and no commonality of purpose. As far as alternatives I am not even thinking about multiple instances. Other alternatives include - many schemas and one tablespace, or many schemas and an arbitrary number of tablespaces, or an arbitrary number of schemas matched to an arbitrary number of tablespaces, or one schema for all users using fine grained access control (thanks for the idea Jack it sounds quite useful). Peter: All users would be equal and no critical systems will be housed on this instance, but backup and recovery is definitely complicated by having so many data files and tablespaces. By the "opposite direction" do you mean only one tablespace. Jared: The benefit is isolation. As much as possible keep the users from affecting each other. Performance effects are unavoidable but separate tablespaces would keep one user from gobbling up all the available disk space. Will definitely have to watch out for the data dictionary filling up the SYSTEM tablespace and bringing everything to a screeching halt.

skipping the java.sh step in database create

final word on 8.1.7 install and java?
Hi, I did not really see a comprehensive answer on the java questions involving 8.1.7 installs. I installed 8.1.7 on AIX 4.3.2 and the 1.1.8 jre was installed. The install asked for a location for the JDK. I just created an empty /opt/java directory with another telnet session, hit continue and it happily carried on.

RE: Can Oracle7 and Oracle8 co-exist?
Hi Scott, Nice to hear from you again. I am migrating several warehouses on the same server from 734 to 817. If I use a separate owner then I won't have to worry about running different profiles when I sign on. (heh I'm getting older with some gray hairs and I am liable to forget which set of databases I'm working on). I also can set up separate cron jobs under the different owner sign-ins and easily migrate one warehouse at a time. I don't really see any drawbacks to using different owners even if it isn't a requirement. Ben Poels Queen's University Kingston, Ontario (613)533-2449 -Original Message- Canaan Sent: Friday, February 23, 2001 4:47 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L Ben, This is no problem. They don't need to have different owners. If you are running Oracle Applications 10.7, and you want to use an Oracle 8i instance to house it, then you must do this type of install. You will have 2 Oracle homes, each with it's own database listener and all associated files. They will be installed in separate directories, by default. You will need to have a way to setup your environment when you login to pick the Oracle home you want to use and setup all of the environment variables correctly.
