Asp.net / iis / oracle problem

G

Guest

I am not sure which forum I should post this on, but here is the problem. I
have a front end web application(VB) on asp,net 1.1 framework. Inside of the
code, I have the following lines to connect to the database

If gbSQLServer Then
'sConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Data
Source=c:\w\vgyl\hy.mdb"
gsConnectionString = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=frt4;Initial
Catalog=SRMSM;Integrated Security=SSPI"
Else
If gbDevelopment Then
gsConnectionString = OLEDB_PROVIDER & "User
ID=ght;Password=" & DB_PASSWORD & ";Data Source=vgy"
gsConnectionString = OLEDB_PROVIDER & "User
ID=ght;Password=" & DB_PASSWORD & ";Data Source=vgyl"
Else
gsConnectionString = OLEDB_PROVIDER & "User
ID=ght;Password=" & DB_PASSWORD & ";Data Source=vgyl"
End If


And in most places when the code tries to connect to the database, it is
done in this format:

Dim cn As OleDbConnection = OpenDatabase(OLEDB_PROVIDER &
gsConnectionString)

The error that I get is below, and I am not sure if the error is related to
the attempt to open the data source, or if it is as plain as stated, that the
box does not think that the Oracle Client is not installed... WHICH it is. I
installed oracle 9i client

Server Error in '/gt' Application.

Oracle is a pain. You need a good portion of the Oracle client software
installed to use .NET with the OracleClient namespace (or even ODP.NET for
that matter). It is more than the libraries necessary for the Oracle SQL
tools, like SQL*Plus.

Watch your connection string, as well. You are concatenating OLEDB_PROVIDER
twice. Once in your If ... Else and once in the OleDbConnection creation.

Final solution that seemed to work:

Ok, the quick rundown



Fixed the ldap references In the code

Replaced the username and passwords for accounts in our domain (Remember
this code came from a separate company)

Installed Oracle Client software on Server

Installed Oracle OLE DB connectivity software (ODAC) from Oracle’s website.
This seemed to resolve the error I got in regards to the Oracle Client not
being found

Finally, the account used to access the database did not have the right to
view specific tables. It could see the list of tables, but not specific
tables.

My DBA had to create synonyms for the account used to access the database to
mimic the account that had ownership of the tables in the database.





At this point, I can now connect, perform queries on the tables, etc ,etc..



Wallah, thanks for the journey,

Thanks for all of your help
