RE: Verisign and MetaLink

2004-01-07 Thread Matthew Zito

Raj,

It seems as though all of Oracle's names are registered through tucows -
Tucows is simply the registrar, not the owner of the name.  This is not at
all uncommon, and in fact makes sense, given the large number of domain
names under management for Oracle.  

Thanks,
Matt

Verisign and MetaLink

2004-01-07 Thread Robyn Anderson Sands
Per the doc on MetaLink, Oracle Wallet Manager and Sun Java JDK are
affected by the Verisign certs.

Here is some of the info:
VeriSign Class 2 and Class 3 PCA root certificates are included in the  
Oracle Wallet Manager as well as Sun's Java JDK.  These certificates will  
expire on January 7, 2004 and are referred to as the "Expiring"
certificates  
in this note.  
  
Both the Oracle Wallet Manager and Sun's Java JDK are shipped or utilized  
by the affected products listed above.  These certificates are used in  
Oracle's products to authenticate web sites and applications communicating  
over SSL using VeriSign certificates.  They are also used to digitally
sign source code and libraries as a means to validate that the libraries and  
archives have come from a trusted source. 
 
VeriSign has issued new certificates with the same public key and new  
validity periods as a replacement for the expiring certificates. The  
expiring certificates should be replaced with the new certificates
following the instructions described in this note.
---
Customers who use VeriSign Class 2 and Class3 PCA root certificates as  
trusted certificates for SSL authentication of users and servers  
(database or web server) will be affected by the root CA expiry starting  
January 8, 2004.
---
This patch will be available for the following products and versions: 
 
  o  Oracle Database Server (versions 8.1.7.4, 9.0.1.5, and 9.2.0.4) 
  o  Oracle Application Server (versions 9.0.2.3, 9.0.3.1, and 9.0.4.0)


I can send a copy of the doc if you like.  

Robyn

So I got two e-mails today from Oracle Support warning about Verisign Certs
expiring today and to check MetaLink (thanks for the advanced warning guys).
I've been trying for over an hour now and am getting no joy.  Anyone know
what the Verisign Certs are used for in Oracle products?  I don't think we
have any of those products, but...

TIA,
Rich

I'll let you

There seems to be Note 216212.1 titled "Disaster Recovery and the
E-business Suite"
Has anyone used this note ?

{Although I am familiar with 11.5.3, the last time I worked on 11i was more
than two years ago,
so I am not "in touch" with 11i , although I do manage an 11.0.3 instance now}

Sticky part of this is it is an Applications 11.5.9 installation.  The 
database end of it should not
be too difficult (8.1.7.4, soon to be 9.2.0.4), but the applications file 
system is modified by the
adpatch utility which adpatch requires a database connection to

get around this requirement.
1. set the two_task to point to a live test system, and run adpatch force 
using the c and g drivers.
The d driver would not need to be run since the changes will come over via 
the archive logs.
2. ignore adpatch utility completely and use rsync.

Suggestion, comments?

Knowing oracle's knack for disgusting user interfaces, which shouldn't be
used
after a meal, we will get an abomination which will contain Java applets,
lots
of JavaScript, icons and flashing pictures, may be even some sound, like
playing
Mozart's concerto No. 40 in G-minor or Tchaikovsky's 1812 overture whenever
the
"submit" button is pressed,  and then returning a bunch of unusable
documents
which you are not entitled to see.
I must say, it's still better then playing Ludacris or Eminem to the
unsuspecting
Metalink users. BTW, oracle white papers in the rap format, sung by Ludacris
would
be a blast, when I come to think of it.

No wonder MetaLink is slow - it's too busy serving up graphics to
customer installations.

>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 11/07/03 11:44AM >>>
At my last project, we were putting in OraFin and we had a team of
Oracle
consultants doing up the front-end setup stuff (populating screens,
etc).
Well, one day, I get this panicked call that "the system" was down.
Well,
of course, that was silly.  The system was up just fine,
thank-you-very-much, and the database was fine, and even "my" version of
the
app was just fine-and-dandy.  This reminded me of the old lightbulb joke
("I
got one over here just like it and it works fine for me"), so I tried to
log
in as the user from "my" app, and it worked fine.  I went upstairs, and
sure-nuf, she couldn't log in and couldn't log in.  She *swore* she had
never logged onto Unix and had never changed *anything* except data, and
it
was working fine til 9:15 then boom!  Well, after awhile, I ran out of
ideas
and tried to log a TAR, and, as you can tell from the subject line,
Metalink
was down.  It was down all morning, and started coming up slowly around
1pm.
When I was finally able to enter the text of the TAR, I was just about
to
log the TAR and my phone rang with a "Gee, you fixed it, thank you!".
Well,
*that* was a bit too much of a coincidence for me.  Well, the upshot of
the
whole thing was that, for whatever reason, in their setups, they wanted
the
actual Oracle splash page to come up instead of the one that ships with
OraFin and one of their in-house experts who had since disappeared had
hardcoded in the server that hosted Metalink into the app.

And the really great thing was when I took out the reference to that
machine
leaving the default splash screen as was, they didn't even notice.  What
a
day that was!

At my last project, we were putting in OraFin and we had a team of Oracle
consultants doing up the front-end setup stuff (populating screens, etc).
Well, one day, I get this panicked call that "the system" was down.  Well,
of course, that was silly.  The system was up just fine,
thank-you-very-much, and the database was fine, and even "my" version of the
app was just fine-and-dandy.  This reminded me of the old lightbulb joke ("I
got one over here just like it and it works fine for me"), so I tried to log
in as the user from "my" app, and it worked fine.  I went upstairs, and
sure-nuf, she couldn't log in and couldn't log in.  She *swore* she had
never logged onto Unix and had never changed *anything* except data, and it
was working fine til 9:15 then boom!  Well, after awhile, I ran out of ideas
and tried to log a TAR, and, as you can tell from the subject line, Metalink
was down.  It was down all morning, and started coming up slowly around 1pm.
When I was finally able to enter the text of the TAR, I was just about to
log the TAR and my phone rang with a "Gee, you fixed it, thank you!".  Well,
*that* was a bit too much of a coincidence for me.  Well, the upshot of the
whole thing was that, for whatever reason, in their setups, they wanted the
actual Oracle splash page to come up instead of the one that ships with
OraFin and one of their in-house experts who had since disappeared had
hardcoded in the server that hosted Metalink into the app.

And the really great thing was when I took out the reference to that machine
leaving the default splash screen as was, they didn't even notice.  What a
day that was!

I think it had nothing to do with support contract ... this morning it looks
like (from reports so far) there was probably a hiccup at metablink ... I
experienced the same, but was back in, in about 10 seconds.

That's what I did.  By the time I proved out that all of us here were having the same trouble, called into support, and had sat on hold for 15 min, the trouble with the userid and password had cleared itself up.

When I called them and asked about how they'd propose to keep our system up,
they replied with a host of colloquialisms I thought to be most
unprofessional.  And I've never heard of a support line that charges by the
minute.  Interesting music on hold however.  Sort of a 1970's guitar twang.

Thanks for the tip, but I think I'll refrain from calling them in the
future.

Call (800) 223-1711, open a new TAR, enter your CSI, mention
[EXPLETIVE DELETED] Metalink and a bunch of [EXPLETIVE DELETED]
idiots who seem to be unable to maintain so important resource.
Also ask to talk to the [EXPLETIVE DELETED] on duty manager. 
Depending on your tone of voice, the quality of your expletives, 
and the size of your company and the money it's paying for 
the  support, this usually gets the things moving.

so far not this morning, but have had this problem several times over the last few days.  Keep trying, it will eventually let you in... but I would get on the phone on the support number while you keep trying.

I think they are having server troubles... kind of appears to be saturation...

What is the best way to download the Metalink Notes

Hi All,

I need to add some Metalink notes to one of my project document. When I copy the text 
of the metalink note and paste it in a word document the formatting gets messed up.

Is there any other way to download this metalink note without messing the formatting.


Thanks,

RE: download metalink articles - save target as

There is hard to find and very expensive software called "OpenOffice",
which, in version 1.1, allows you to read a HTML file and export it to 
PDF. The whole procedure takes about 5 minutes. For those of us who
don't have luxury of using MS-Word and MS-Office in general, OpenOffice
is a gift from God McNeally.

RE: download metalink articles - save target as

2003-10-01 Thread Faan DeSwardt
The way I do it is to print the articles to a .PDF converter like Win2PDF 
(http://www.win2pdf.com/download/download.htm) that installs a printer driver to which 
you can print anything you could have printed to a regular printer.  The free version 
has a popup dialog but given the usefulness, is a small price to pay for the 
convenience.

This way you get it in a format that is platform independent but maintains the 
formatting and layout.  An additional benefit is that you get the complete URL in the 
footer which you can easily copy+paste into a browser to get the latest update of the 
article on the web.

I use this Web=>PDF technique on most articles I find on the web, especially the ones 
with nice charts and graphics, as saving them to disk sometimes do not include all 
those pretty pictures...:-)

The grueling method is...

grab the header, copy paste it into notepad.exe.  That strips the weird
formatting out of it.

Grab the body text, but not all the way down, try to guess where the
body
text frame ends and stop just before that.  It may take a few tries to
find
exactly where.

copy paste into Wordpad.exe.

That kind of mentality burns me to no end.  I can *almost* see it from a
Support perspective, but if people would just use http://validator.w3.org
when making their webpages and leave off all the Real/Shock/Quick/Crap
plugins and go frameless, there'd be a helluva lot more usable pages on
Intranets and it wouldn't matter a lick WTF kind of browser users use.

Oh, I'm sorry.  I thought it was the World Wide Web and not the MS Web.

Paula,

I think the problem may lie in MetaLink's use of the icky icky frame
construct (See http://www.useit.com/ for explanation of why frames are bad
and aren't even needed).  You don't say what browser you're using, but I can
guess.  Toss out that virus-toting piece of dung, IEeee.  Actually, keep
it on your system, but make sure you have "Work Offline" checked before
closing it for the last time.  That way, your MS Outlook (Lookout!) mail
won't be able to automatically retrieve junk off of the web when you preview
or read messages.  This will help keep your spam count low.
So, in Mozilla (or other Gecko variant like Firebird or perhaps even
Netscape) or Opera 7.2.0, right click on the link to the article you want.
In the popup menu that appears, choose "Open link in another tab" or "Open
link in another window" or whatever option you have.  With the link in it's
own space, you should be able to figure out how to save the article locally.
One thing to watch for when using this technique is that the MetaLink pages
are often coded to open new links in a frame ([EMAIL PROTECTED]&@#% frames!) from your
original MetaLink window/tab, unless you right-click every link into a new
window/tab.  Mozilla and it's variants also offer a middle-click to
automagically pop the link into a new window/tab.
These other browsers have the nice intended effect of being available on
multiple platforms, so you have the ability to call up MetaLink without
needing an MS Windohs box.  :)

In the popup menu that appears, choose "Open link in another tab" or "Open
link in another window" or whatever option you have.  With the link in it's
own space, you should be able to figure out how to save the article locally.
One thing to watch for when using this technique is that the MetaLink pages
are often coded to open new links in a frame ([EMAIL PROTECTED]&@#% frames!) from your
original MetaLink window/tab, unless you right-click every link into a new
window/tab.  Mozilla and it's variants also offer a middle-click to
automagically pop the link into a new window/tab.

These other browsers have the nice intended effect of being available on
multiple platforms, so you have the ability to call up MetaLink without
needing an MS Windohs box.  :)

When I right click on a metalink article to try to save it to a local
directory and use save target as - it only provides a blank file.  What's
the easiest way to save these files locally?  I want to because sometimes
the more useful ones go away.

Paula,

I think the problem may lie in MetaLink's use of the icky icky frame
construct (See http://www.useit.com/ for explanation of why frames are bad
and aren't even needed).  You don't say what browser you're using, but I can
guess.  Toss out that virus-toting piece of dung, IEeee.  Actually, keep
it on your system, but make sure you have "Work Offline" checked before
closing it for the last time.  That way, your MS Outlook (Lookout!) mail
won't be able to automatically retrieve junk off of the web when you preview
or read messages.  This will help keep your spam count low.

So, in Mozilla (or other Gecko variant like Firebird or perhaps even
Netscape) or Opera 7.2.0, right click on the link to the article you want.
In the popup menu that appears, choose "Open link in another tab" or "Open
link in another window" or whatever option you have.  With the link in it's

The "modified date" is unreliable.  I have seen notes relating to 7.3 and 8.0
and Apps 10.7 which, from the text, I know have *not* been modified for two 
or more years
and yet the "modified" date appears as being only a month ago --
particulary Desupport Advisories.
e.g. see Note 39013.1 -- The Desupport Advisory for 7.1/7.2 which
was supposedly last modified 04-Sep-03.

RE: Is Metalink Working

While Metalink is up and working, it's sporatically
dropping out.

A word to the wise.  If you're about to spend a chunk
of time updating a TAR, do it in a text editor, SAVE
it, copy it into your TAR, then update.  

If you spend 30 minutes updating your TAR, push the
update button, and get an "action cancelled" message
and lose everything, you're likely to say some VERY
bad words that might get you escorted out of the
building.

Um, not that I'd know . . .

RE: how to get metalink user name ??

2003-03-18 Thread Rao
Scott,

1. Contact the Oracle Sales rep. that sold Oracle product to the company.
Usually, he would have the details on whether there is a free support
available (generally during the first three months).  Also, he could
coordinate with Oracle support to get a CSI #.

2. If the sales rep says you don't have a support contract, then, depending
on your needs "NEGOTIATE" with Oralce sales rep. on the price of support.
The price of support varies from company to company and also on many other
factors.

Re: how to get metalink user name ??

2003-03-17 Thread Rukmini Devi N
hello scott,

   You will get the metalink support in the following ways:

   1. your organization should be partner to Oracle
2. your organization should take Annual support contract from Oracle

If you have the any of the above , then go to metalink.oracle.com and find
out the CSI number to register for an account to the metalink web site.
