I have a question related to oracle. I have a machine which earlier had Oracle client installed on it. I was able to connect to my oracle server using the client.
Now I recently installed oracle 11g DB on the same machine. Now I have one client and Oracle 11g DB installed. But some how I am not able to connect to oracle servers anymore. This seems a bit problem because I am getting two oracle homes and stuff in path and registry entry.
The error that I am getting while connecting is
[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]Error while trying to retrieve text for error ORA-01019
Note: I had a similar problem once but once I uninstalled the oracle DB server and
removed the ORACLE_HOME entries things started working fine.
Could you please help me fix this problem. Do let me know if you need more information

Well,
Just worked it out. While having both installations we have two ORACLE_HOME directories and both have SQAORA32.dll files. While looking up for ORACLE_HOMe my app was getting confused..I just removed the Client oracle home entry as oracle client is by default present in oracle DB Now its working…Thanks!!

Correct the ORACLE_HOME path.
There could be two oracle clients in the system.
I had the same issue, the reason being my ORACLE_HOME was pointed to the oracle installation which was not having the tns.ora file.
Changing the ORACLE_HOME to the Oracle directory which is having the tns.ora solved it.
tns.ora lies in client2\network\admin\

WHEN ORA-01019 ERROR OCCURS
- Check with TNSPING , if not responding then add Service Name entry in tns.ora file.
- Check firewall, if enabled then disable it.
- Add Env. variable ORACLE_HOME to the Path of oracle client directory up to ‘c:\oracle…\client1’, this solution will definitely work.

I have the same issue. My solution was delete one of the oracle path in environment variable. I also changed the inventory.xml and point to the oracle home version which is in my environment path variable.

In my case, I just needed to install oracle 10g client on the server, becase there there was the 11g version.
Ps: I don’t needed unistall nothing, I just install the 10g version and updated the tnsnames file (C:\oracle\product\10.2.0\client_1\NETWORK\ADMIN)

I was having this error with SSIS SSDT. The fix was to use a provider of «.Net Providers\OracleClient Data Provider» instead of OLEDB

I had the following error occur recently.
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80004005): ORA-01019: unable to allocate memory in the user side
at ADODB.ConnectionClass.Open(String ConnectionString, String UserID, String Password, Int32 Options)
I managed to resolve the problem by simply modifying my connection string.
from:
"Provider=MSDAORA.1;Data Source=tprss;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=myUser;Password=myPassword"
To:
"Provider=MSDASQL;Data Source=tprss;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=myUser;Password=myPassword"
someone modified/updated the components on the box.

«ORA-01019 unable to allocate memory in the user side
Cause: The user side memory allocator returned an error.

Followup from the comments:
Could you try this code?

Dim CP As ADODB.Command
Dim Rs As ADODB.Recordset
Dim Conn As String
Dim QSQL As String
'Connect to Oracele server begin

You need at least one driver. The oracle driver is best but Microsoft Driver will work too.
Lets first try to make a connection string. Right click on your desktop and the create a new .txt file.
Now rename your textfile to something.udl
Double click on the udl file. Go to «Provider» and select Microsoft OLEDB Provider for Oracle. Then click on next. In the server name field you fill in your TNS name. Then username and password and put a V inside «Allow saving password» (we will need this) And click on test connection. Make sure this works.
If it works then click on OK. Now open the UDL file with a text editor. You will see something similar to:
[oledb]
; Everything after this line is an OLE DB initstring
Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=yourpw;User ID=youruser;Data Source=yourTNS;Persist Security Info=True
Copy this part into your connection string:
Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=yourpw;User ID=youruser;Data Source=yourTNS
Now your connection string should look like:
Conn = "Provider=MSDAORA.1;Password=yourpw;User ID=youruser;Data Source=yourTNS"
I hope this works.

I had this problem also but it is on win10.. After I have tried a lots of different solution from web .. Finally.. it worked to change connection string to fix this problem.. But I changed "Provider=MSDAORA.1"
to "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle"

Problem
Attempts to open an IBM Rational RequisitePro project results in the error «Unable to allocate Memory in user side».
Symptom
While opening a Rational RequisitePro Project, which is using Oracle as its database vendor, the following error is returned:
The Project name 'Test Project Could not be opened because ODBC was not configured properly'
ODBC error:
ORA-01019 : Unable to allocate memory in user side
Unable to connect to Datasource
Cause
Local security policy issues on the machine incorrectly set on local machine.
Resolving The Problem
The user who is trying to open the project might not have proper security permission on the system to open the project. Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
- Click Start > Control panel > Administrative tools > Local security policy
- Go to Local Policies > User Rights Management
- Go to Create global objects
- Select Properties
- Add the user to the users list of the policy
[{«Product»:{«code»:»SSSHCT»,»label»:»Rational RequisitePro»},»Business Unit»:{«code»:»BU053″,»label»:»Cloud & Data Platform»},»Component»:»Database: Oracle»,»Platform»:[{«code»:»PF033″,»label»:»Windows»}],»Version»:»7.0;7.0.0.1;7.0.0.2;7.0.1;7.0.1.1″,»Edition»:»»,»Line of Business»:{«code»:»LOB45″,»label»:»Automation»}}]
ORA-01019: unable to allocate memory in the user side
One of the in-house developed tools which connects to the database to allow a
user to perform configuration updates was throwing an error:
ORA-01019: unable to allocate memory in the user side
Most of the docs that I could find online told me the same thing, namely:
Cause: The user side memory allocator returned error
Action: Increase the processes heap size or switch to the old set of calls
However, sometimes the Oracle errors that you receive don’t seem to be that
helpful in actually determining what the problem is. The ORA-01019 error is
no exception in this case…You will find numerous forums online which tell you
to fix the ORA-01019 error by “increasing the processes heap size” on the
client and that it’s not to do with any configuration, just resource. I have
found differently.
Solution:-
So, what you need to check is whether or not you have multiple ORACLE_HOMES
installed on the client machine. The reason I say this is because in our case
we did. We had an old Oracle 10g client and a new 11g client. We found that the
default client was still the 10g one, so when the client was attempting to connect
to the database it was using executables and dlls which we didn’t expect or want
it to use.
The way to resolve your ORA-01019: unable to allocate memory in the user side is
to ensure that you have the correct default path for the Oracle client. The
client was running on Windows so if you type PATH from a command prompt it will
show you what the default one is.
Change the PATH
You can update this in My Computer -> Properties -> Advanced -> Environment
Variables -> then scroll to the System Variables window at the bottom until you see PATH and edit that. Put the path to the Oracle home that you want to use first
before any other Oracle home in the list order.
I have some more details about how to change the PATH environment variable in another
post if you would like to see some screenshots of where to go and change it.

7 Steps to configure BDR replication in postgresql
The BDR (Bi-Directional Replication) project adds multi-master replication to PostgreSQL 9.4. Postgres-BDR has a lower impact on the masters(s) than trigger-based replication solutions. There is no write-amplification, as it does not require triggers to write to queue tables in order to replicate writes. Here We are using postgres version 9.4.12 and bdr version 1.0.2. for configuring multi master replication . Simply Following 7 steps you can configure the multi master replication in postgresql.

How to Get Table Size, Database Size, Indexes Size, schema Size, Tablespace Size, column Size in PostgreSQL Database
In this post, I am sharing few important function for finding the size of database, table and index in PostgreSQL. Finding object size in postgresql database is very important and common. Is it very useful to know the exact size occupied by the object at the tablespace. The object size in the following scripts is in GB. The scripts have been formatted to work very easily with PUTTY SQL Editor. 1. Checking table size excluding table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_relation_size(‘mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit’)); pg_size_pretty —————- 238 MB (1 row) 2. Checking table size including table dependency: SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_total_relation_size(‘mhrordhu_shk.mut_kharedi_audit’)); pg_size_pretty —————- 268 MB (1 row) 3. Finding individual postgresql database size SELECT pg_size_pretty(pg_database_size(‘db_name’)); 4.

vacuumlo — removing large objects orphans from a database PostgreSQL
vacuumlo is a simple utility program that will remove any “ orphaned ” large objects from a PostgreSQL database. An orphaned large object (LO) is considered to be any LO whose OID does not appear in any oid or lo data column of the database. OIDs basically give you a built-in, globally unique id for every row,default is on( default_with_oids ( boolean )). If you use this, you may also be interested in the lo_manage trigger in the lo module. lo_manage is useful to try to avoid creating orphaned LOs in the first place. More about lo module there are two ways to store large objects in the PostgreSQL: bytea oid and lo Working process of vacuumlo: First, vacuumlo builds a temporary table which contains all of the OIDs of the large objects in the selected database. It then scans through all columns in the database that are of type oid or lo, and removes matching entries from the temporary table. (Note: only types with these names are con
