similar to: Oracle connection problem: rails ok!

All of a sudden, on three different systems, the "server_ip_address/sid_name" syntax in database.yml has stopped working for me. I can''t even do a OCI8.new(blah blah blah) statement from an IRB shell. I get "ORA-12541: TNS:no listener", or some variant, depending on how I phrase it. On systems where I have a real deal client installed, and OCI can find the tnsnames

I am trying to connect to an older oracle DB remotely, I think version 8 or 9. I downloaded the instant client stuff from oracle and copied oci.dll and oraociei10.dll to my windows/system folder (windows XP) I get the error. C:\rb-play>ar_connect_ss.rb env.c:257:in oci8lib.so: ORA-12514: TNS:listener does not currently know of serv ice requested in connect descriptor (OCIError) from

I have written the small script below. I have the ruby-oci adapter installed, the newest version of gems and the newest version of ActiveRecord.

Thanks, Drew Code: require ''ruby_gems'' require ''active_record''

I''m trying to get ActiveRecord working with an Oracle DB over the instant client. On a 32bit machine, I can require ''oci8'': Linux xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 2.6.9-78.0.17.ELsmp #1 SMP Thu Mar 5 04:52:17 EST 2009 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux irb(main):001:0> require ''oci8'' => true However, on a 64bit machine: Linux xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 2.6.18-128.1.6.el5 #1 SMP Tue

Has anyone looked into having ActiveRecord use Oracle bind vars? I don''t know if the same concept is supported in other dbs, but Oracle''s OCI driver supports late binding with dramatically improved performance. I did a quick test to confirm that I could expect the same performance improvement through the Ruby OCI8 driver, and in a simple test it looks to be a 5x improvement.

Hi, After a few days of struggling, I was able to run this command successfully. ruby -r oci8 -e "OCI8.new(''xxx_dba'', ''xxx'', ''//xxxx:1521/ xxxxx.xxx.org'').exec(''SELECT 1 from dual'') {|r| puts r.join}" I got "1.0" as output and I got my prompt back.
