Re: Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
Connecting Rev Entreprise to Oracle is not always simple but it worked always for me (to the end) for 8i, 9i or 10g, under Solaris (Rev 2.1.2), Linux and OS X in using 2 different ways : a Shell-based or a PHP-based middleware.

Re: Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
Hi Pierre, I've tried 10g and 11g under Solaris and OS X with RunRev on OS X and Windows. I suppose I could get it working with middleware, but I don't think that's the idea if you promote that the product can connect directly to Oracle DB? Can't use the build in db functions that way can you?

Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
Hi, this question has been raising to my mind mind lately. I have not been able to connect Oracle with Revolution using the normal connection identifiers. So my question is if the Revolution really is supporting Oracle connections or is it just a hoax? It could be that I'm making the mistake when trying to connect the db, but then again there's no documentation to tell me if so and I don't think the idea is code my own OCI interface for Oracle?

Re: Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
Hi Sakari, Oracle support for Revolution is not a joke - I'm assuming you have an Enterprise license otherwise you can't connect to Oracle anyway. First of all, on which platform and cpu architecture are you working? Secondly, what version of Oracle are you trying to connect to? Thirdly, can you give us the exact code you're using to connect?

Re: Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
Hi Jan, thanks for the reply, I was already given up the hope for connecting Oracle. Here's the string I'm using to connect the database. revOpenDatabase(oracle, localhost, ORCL, sakari, test) ORCL being the SID, sakari the username and test the password. I'm using oracle 10g on OS X 10.5, but did also try to connect Oracle on Solaris. I did try several variation of that same string with port number defined etc. The string works with other programs like SQLDeveloper, but I'm not a dba so dunno all the tricks. If you could help me out, that would be greatly appreciated.

Re: Is rev Oracle support just a joke?
The server shouldn't be the difference, it's the Rev client. Is this client on MaxOSX running on Intel by any chance? I seem to recall that the RevDB driver for Oracle couldn't be updated because the underlying library for Intel hadn't been released yet by Oracle itself. Aha, just dug up entry 7102 in the Quality Center http://quality.runrev.com/qacenter/show_bug.cgi?id=7102 which confirms that theory. However, there is now an InstantCLient available for MacOSX on Intel: http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/macos/index.html So first try to run Rev inside Rosetta, and if that works, then the problem is indeed the non-existing Intel driver. In which case, you should email supp...@runrev.com to ask for an update to this driver; and also ask Mark Schonewille to re-open the entry in the Quality Center.
