Re: [Zope] ZOracleDA

2000-06-27 Thread Michal Bukovjan

Avoid using Oracle 8.1.5 at all costs. It has mislinked executables and 
libraries, I can't believe Oracle could have released such a shit.

Instead, download and try Oracle 8.1.6 R2 - the current release.
It fixes a number of issues (though not all of them) and at least it works.

[Zope] Re: Oracle 8i setup

2000-06-06 Thread Michal Bukovjan

Hey guys,

I am now lucky to get the Oracle 8i connection working. Here is what I did :

1) Download and install the latest Oracle 8.1.6 Release 2.
- the previous Oracle 8.0.5 and 8.1.5 are broken as hell, the executables will
not even link and there is a lot of unresolved symbols. I wonder on which
distro Oracle tested that, it will not work on Debian, definitely. Did not
expect Oracle to be such CRAP!!! 8.1.6R2 is much better.
- be sure not to want too much from Java wizards. They like to crash a lot, in
both 8.1.5 and 8.1.6

1.1) When asked to run a script root.sh as root, first check the script and
correct the path to awk. In script it thinks it is /bin/awk, on Debian it is
/usr/bin/awk. Other distros may vary. Run the script as root.

2) Download latest beta of DCOracle

3) Download and install the latest beta of ZOracleDA. Replace DCOracle included
in the product with the latest beta of DCOracle, which includes Setup-8.1.5 for
linking with Oracle 8i. It should build now according to instructions.

4) Install ZOracleDA as outlined in docs

4.5) Not sure about this, but hell, my setup now works. So you may try...
a) Put ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_SID into /etc/profile, so
that everyone has these set up.
b) Symlink tnsnames.ora for
$ORACLE_HOME/product/8.1.6/network/admin to /etc/tnsnames.ora.
c) Double check file permissions on $ORACLE_HOME/*
d) Edit /etc/oratab as needed, start up the databases.

5) Restart Zope.

Now it works for me (Zope 2.1.4), and works for 2 days, did not try any heavy
loads, etc, though. At least it connects and I can browse inside the database.

It gave me some strange error like invalid connection string for some time, but
probably after performing something from 4.5, it now works well, Zope will not
freeze, and it works for two days now.

Hope this helps anyone, we spent three+ days getting this f*cking Oracle to
work :-(

[Zope] ZOracleDA woes - cannot connect

2000-05-30 Thread Michal Bukovjan

Please help!!!

I am trying to connect to Oracle server. Running Zope 2.1.4, ZServer
alone (for now), Debian frozen(potato).
I have stable ZOracleDA 2.1.0.
After a lot of work, I succeeded to compile the DCOracle package, and I
am able to connect with the Python script DCOracle_test.py, which is
included. I am only able to connect when I am a user 'oracle'.
But when I try to connect from Zope, the connection never happens,and
Zope returns "Document contained no data. Contact your network
administrator". Sometimes, Zope dies.

I am really desperate by now, as I try to make connection for three days
now. I searched all FAQs on Zope site, nothing found. Any idea what I am
doing wrong?

Thanks,

Michal Bukovjan

Re: [Zope] GUF and userList problems

2000-05-25 Thread Michal Bukovjan

That should work. You could try either to return the query object directly (in
comments they say it is possible),
and make sure that there are no spaces in the string returned from database.
I was solving similar problem with PostgreSQL, when the username field was
defined as CHAR(20), it always returned 20 characters regardless of the actual
length of the username, the username was padded with spaces. Switching to
VARCHAR solved my problem.
Or you could try to strip the username.
