hello -
Is it possible to connect to a database at the command line to an Oracle instance whilst logged in on the unix box i.e. not using a script
Sure, allways has been. Unless I am missing something obvious, you simply use sqlplus. Some things that you may need some help with though are as follows:
1. Find out the database instance your want to connect to; you DBA can tell you.
2. Source the Oracle environment file, which is typically kept in /usr/local/bin called oraenv (for sh, ksh, etc.)
3. When prompted for database, enter the name from step 1.
If oraenv doesn't prompt you for a path, you are finished; run sqlplus.
If oraenv does prompt you for a path, make sure your database name is correct and, if it is, you can either ask the DBA for the path for ORACLE_HOME or you can have a look in a file called "oratab". This is located typically in /var/opt/oracle. Alternatively, it may be located in /etc.
Good luck.

P.S. Probably can't answer any Cytrix questions, I used 4 times probably. I may still have a client on my PC so if there isn't anyone else who can answer, I may be able to dig up an answer.

apache::session::store::oracle
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Apache::Session::Store::Oracle(3pm)NAME
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle - Store persistent data in a Oracle database
SYNOPSIS
use Apache::Session::Store::Oracle;
my $store = new Apache::Session::Store::Oracle;
$store->insert($ref);
$store->update($ref);
$store->materialize($ref);
$store->remove($ref);
DESCRIPTION
Apache::Session::Store::Oracle fulfills the storage interface of Apache::Session. Session data is stored in a Oracle database.
SCHEMA
To use this module, you will need at least these columns in a table called 'sessions':
id varchar2(32) # or however long your session IDs are.
a_session long
To create this schema, you can execute this command using the sqlplus program:
CREATE TABLE sessions (
id varchar2(32) not null primary key,
a_session long
);
If you use some other command, ensure that there is a unique index on the table's id column.
CONFIGURATION
The module must know what datasource, username, and password to use when connecting to the database. These values can be set using the
options hash (see Apache::Session documentation). The options are DataSource, UserName, and Password.
Example:
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
DataSource => 'dbi:Oracle:database',
UserName => 'database_user',
Password => 'K00l'
};
Instead, you may pass in an already-opened DBI handle to your database.
tie %hash, 'Apache::Session::Oracle', $id, {
Handle => $dbh
};
The last option is LongReadLen, which specifies the maximum size of the session object. If not supplied, the default maximum size is 8 KB.
