One of my work mates has set up a freenas server for storage (version9.1)
I have created a jail under this running FreeBSD 10.3-STABLE.
I want to create a web server in this jail and need to be able to connect to an external oracle (11g) database. I have the web server working but have been unable to find information on how to connect to an external oracle server from freebsd.
Is this even possible?
I am very new to BSD and Oracle.
The Ports collection contains several oracle clients/odbc drivers etc. in the databases category

I am new to ADF/JDeveloper. I'd like to configure my ADF Web application to Oracle Live Server, since I'm using a Mac computer, which are not supported by Oracle's database distribution, I have tried to use Oracle VM but it freezes my Mac.
Needs information on database configuration panel are:
Host name
JDBBC port
SID
Oracle does not provide database connection information for the database behind livesql.oracle.com. If you want your own cloud database, you should look into setting up an Oracle Cloud Free Tier database. If you configure your database using the Always Free options, you should be able to have your database around for free forever.
In my Windows virtual machine, one Unix server hosted where Informatica is installed.
I want to connect oracle exadata dB which is present in different server.
I opened firewalls between Unix server to oracle exadata server. While trying to connect from Unix server using SQL client (sqlplus), I am able to connect. But from Informatica client which is present in same windows virtual machine, it is not working.
My doubt is do I need to open firewall from vm window also for client? If so does this mean, for new data source connectivity for informatica client and server we need to treat them separately?
I want to create a small dev database just to use for developing my application. I've downloaded the Oracle Instant client and followed the directions to "install" (ie, copy/paste and set up some environment variables), but I can't find any information on how to connect, login, create database, etc, or even exactly what Instant Client is, specifically. So, a few specific questions:
Is Instant client just a set of drivers and components that allow you to connect to an existing database, or can you use Instant Client to create and administer a completely new database?
If it CAN be used to create a new database:
How do you "start" (or similar concept) the database so that it is ready for connections.
Because there is no installation, and no default configuration, I haven't set up a default schema, port, etc. So, what is the default connection information to connect to the database for the first time?
For example, I use SQL Developer to connect to and administer my remote database, so how could I connect to Instant Client from SQL Developer?
The client is JUST a client.
You'll want to download the Oracle Database installs. The easiest would be the XE (Express Edition) - it's free, and gets going on windows or linux pretty quick.
You'll then install the server software and THEN create a database. Then you can use your client to connect to said database. You can use your client now to connect to any Oracle database running on any server that you can see on your network.
There are more alternatives.
I talk about this in more detail here.
Am a newbie to oracle, I've Oracle Database installed on my windows machine and I can connect to the database without any problem from my machine using the sqlPlus / SQL Developer. And I have a java application in my machine which needs to connect to the Database using JDBC driver. After downloading the ojdbc driver I can connect to the java application by providing the connection url as jdbc:oracle:thin:#127.0.0.1:1521:orcl
Now, I want to know how can I connect to my oracle database that is installed in my machine (ip address:10.0.xx.xx) from the java application which is running in another machine (ip address:10.0.yy.yy). BTW both the machines are connected in LAN.
Do I need to change anything in listener configuration or in tnsnames.ora file?
I checked these links for reference before posting this question:
How to connect to an Oracle DB from another system
also Cannot access oracle using sqlplus from another machine on the LAN
Please Suggest me how can I do this one. Thanks in advance.
The JDBC url has this form
jdbc:oracle:thin:#HOST:PORT:SID
So if you wanted to connect to an oracle server running on 10.1.2.3, on port 1521 (the default one), and on a database named 'stackoverflowdb' you'd use:
jdbc:oracle:thin:#10.1.2.3:1521:stackoverflowdb
I installed oracle11g in one machine and also created the database on it.Now I have to access the already created database from another machine(Remote).
Note: In second machine I'm not install anything for oracle.
Both systems are connected with LAN.
I have to install anything for Remote machine(2nd machine)? ( i.e. Instant Client)
Is this possible to connect the oracle database from one machine to another machine?
1) If you want to connect using some third party tool like Toad, SQL Tools etc., then you need to install Oracle Client in 2nd Machine and copy the tnsnames.ora content from your server machine.
2) If you want to use SQL*Plus only, login to the Server machine using SSH or TELNET and then fire sqlplus username/password#database to access oracle.
There can be more options, may be some other person can tell you here.
