Problem with Tora in Fedora Linux

Hi  friends,

When I open Tora, I immediately get the following error:

"No available connection provider, plugins probably missing"

Can anyone here help out on this?  I'm a Linux newbie.  I don't know how to fix this.

Thank you so much,


Jazon from Jacksonville, FL

Tora? Is it Toolkit for Oracle?
Did you have Oracle/MySQL or some sort database installed and running?
If not, then please make sure the database is installed and running first.

Regards,

Hi Wesly,

I have MySQL installed and running.  I can access MySQL using the terminal.  Also, I have every single component of "Database Server" (in the Add/Remove Programs) installed.  Maybe there's a service I need to start to make Tora work?

Hi,

  You probably need to install those packages:
qt-ODBC
qt-PostgreSQL
qt-MySQL    <=== This one for MySQL

Wesly
I have all three of those installed.  In "Services", I have PostgreSQL and MySQL running.  I don't see ODBC listed.  Is it supposed to be listed there?

Also, I tried this:  In the "Add/Remove Applications", I went to SQL Database Server and chose Details.  I tried to uninstall "unixODBC" by unchecking it.  When I clicked on update, I got the following error:

Packages Not Found
libodbc.so.1
libodbcpsql.so.2

Man, being a Linux newbie makes so helpless in fixing this stuff.  Your help will be so valuable.  Thanks in advance.

Hi,

   Could you do
# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql
and provide the result?

Wesly
Hi Wesly,

# rpm -qa | grep -i mysql

perl-DBD-MySQL-2.9003-4
mod_auth_mysql-20030510-4.1
mysql-3.23.58-9
php-mysql-4.3.4-11
mysql-server-3.23.58-9
> # rpm -qa | grep -i mysql

> php-mysql-4.3.4-11
> mysql-server-3.23.58-9

Then you don't have plug-in "qt-MySQL" installed. Why you said you have it?
Anyway, please install "qt-mysql" because it's needed for Tora.

Wesly
I have everything checked in the "Add/Remove Applications" under "SQL Database Server".  Is qt-MySQL located under a different category?  Or will I need to download if from the Internet.  My friend chose the "Everything" option during installation, and his Tora works.  I didn't chose Everything, but everything under SQL Database Server is checked.  Please advice.
