Connecting to Oracle on 64bit OS

Hi,

I know there are similar questions posed but none that provided a solution to my particular problem.

I am upgrading a SSIS package from Sql Server 2005 (32bit) to Sql Server 2008 (64bit) on Windows Server 2008 R2. It worked on the Sql Server 2005 machine. This package connects to an Oracle 10g (64bit) database.

The Oracle 11g client and networking tools are installed (by the Oracle DBA). I tested my connection on the sql server 2008 machine using SqlPlus and doing a tnsping. I can also create a Windows ODBC datasource connection to the Oracle 10g database.

The package executes properly on my local computer XP (32bit) running bids 2008.

The package fails on the server in SSIS. I need to be able to schedule the package in a job so it must run in SSIS.

I have also tired to create a connection manager to the Windows ODBC oracle connection without success. It is blank and does not allow me to select or refresh to view the Windows ODBC datasources.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. I have seen other forums where installing the Oracle 11g ODAC and Oracle Developer Tools for Visual Studio might assist in creating the package. But I need assistance in running the package from SSIS and not BIDS.

Thanks,

Jan

hello everyone!!
i m trying to use ODAC 11 with vs2010 and oracle 10G. After installation i am able to connect the vs2010's server explorer with oracle 10G using ODAC. the thing is when i try to drag the table directly on windows application or web form, it does nothing. there is no way possible to connect any application to the database. i strongly feel that my installation is incomplete. I changes the parameters in tnsname.ora. the only thing i left in installation is executing some sql scripts after installation that are present in "C:\app\dellid\product\11.2.0\client_1\ASP.NET\SQL" folder.
Plz help

Hi,

I am novice  user to raizor syntax using webmatrix and i am trying to connect MS Sql server database (instead of using .sdf file i am using .mdf file) using the tool webmatrix for startersite.

The connection string that i setup as follows.

<?xml version="1.0"?>

<configuration>

    <system.web>
        <compilation debug="false" targetFramework="4.0" />
    </system.web>
    <connectionStrings>
    <add name="OESConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLServer2005;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\OES_Data.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
    </connectionStrings>

</configuration>

And i am using websecurity helper as well and the setup is as follows.

WebSecurity.InitializeDatabaseConnection("Data Source=INLTE5556\\SQLServer2005;Initial Catalog=OES;Integrated Security=True", "System.Data.SqlClient", "UserProfile", "UserId", "Email", true);

When i am trying to insert the user details into database i am getting the below error.

Hi.,

I need a 'Wrapper.cs' file which takes care of the Database connection ( Oracle 10g) where

i can just call the method with my SQL Query

(eg)

Gridview1.DataSource = SampleWrapper.ExecuteDatatable("THE SQL QUERY");

Gridview1.DataBind();

Plz Post the link if there is any open source !

So I've intalled SQL 2005 Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE). I don't have any problems connecting to it using Windows authentication. But I would like to set it up so that I can log in using Sql Server Authentication with a username and password.

My Problem

But I'm getting an error message of "A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occured during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0- No process is on the other end of the pipe) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233).

What I've done

I've created a new "Login" in the Security node. Provided all necessary role access level. Granted permission to connect to database and enabled login.

I've used the Sql Server Surface Area Configuration to set the Remote Connection type to "Using TCP/IP only" or "Using Both TCP/IP and named pipes" (tried both, but in either situation I get the same error message when attempting to login to SSMSE with the user name and password). I also made sure to restart the service.

What do I need to do to fix this problem? 

 We have an application which uses  'System.Data.OracleClient'. On the box it was developed we can change the TNSNAMES.ORA entries to connect to different oracle databases. Moving the code to a  Microsoft Server 2008 box it would appear that the application ignores the TNSNAMES.ORA file. It has cached the first Oracle connection and will now work without any TNSNAMES.ORA file. Where is it getting the connection? We have set tns_admin to point at the TNSNAMES.ORA file. We can tnsping the connection OK.

Pre- .Net Framework 4.0 supported using Oracle.DataAccess.Client, using Oracle.DataAccess.Types, System.Data.OracleClient, OracleDataReader, OracleConnection. What are the equivalents in .Net Framework 4.0? Does it require any download?

Thank you.

I am working on updating a reporting system that uses Crystal Reports.  All of the 250+ reports were created in CR 8 and I have been opening up the old files in Visual Studio 2005 and updating the database location.  All I have had to do with all connections to views and even a couple of stored procedures is create a new connection to the database and then update the old report's datasource location.  The reason I need to update the location is so that the .NET application will use the correct driver.  Everything has worked fine up until I got to one stored procedure.  The old version of the report works perfectly with the stored procedure, but when I try to run the report using VS 2005 I keep getting errors.

First I connected to the database using the Oracle OLE DB provider, then updated the location of the stored procedure in the report.  It then prompts me for the two parameter values for the stored procedure, both of which I keep as NULL so that the report parameters will be passed to the procedure.  Then I get the following error:

Query Engine Error: 'ADO Error Code: 0x
Source: OraOLEDB
Description: ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:
PLS-00306: wrong number or types of arguments in call to 'STORED_PROCEDURE'
