Copy data from mysql to oracle database help?

Im an sql newb and trying to understand how I can automatically copy data from one dtabase to another systems database on the same server.
We have two differnt applications, but both share customer information, but one is on a win server, while the other is on oracle.
Each time a customer contacts us via online chat (win server, mysql), we want to copy their entire chat transcript into our CRM's (oracle) customer account. So the folks that use the CRM can see the past chat histories. I hope this makes sense.
Where can i look to get started on this?
Thanks

You could look at Heterogeneous Services (see the forum here Heterogeneous Connectivity but if you want to push data from mysql to oracle you might be better looking at it from the mssql side. I don't know what they offer.
It might be simpler to do it at the client end. ie cut and paste from the online chat application into a new utility which inserts into the oracle database.
Incidentally, this forum is specifically for the SQLDeveloper tool. You might get more general help in the "database - general" or "sql and pl/sql" forums

How can i convert data from DBF to oracle database 10g?

Sir,
How can i convert data from DBF to oracle database 10g?

I assume you at least know how to dump the contents of foxpro dbf file into CSV format.
Regarding SQL*Loader, hope this demo makes it a bit clear to you...
http://www.princeton.edu/~storacle/sqlloader_demo.shtml
I agree that it is an old web page (references Oracle 8.0.5) but basics remain the same.
If it is still unclear to you after referring above link, then get an Oracle consultant.

Import/insert data from XML into Oracle database tables?

Hi. (I am using JDeveloper 10.1.3.3.0 and Oracle 10g)
I have been able to export the data from one of my database tables by using a View Object and .writeXML.
Now, I want to take an xml file that is formatted in the same way as what is spit out by the writeXML and put that info in my database table. I followed online examples and have tried using .readXML like so:
Element element = XMLDoc.getDocumentElement();
vo.readXML(element, -1);
I know it is sort of working, because at first I got an error message that one of the required attributes was missing. So, I added that attribute to my xml file and ran my code. No errors. But, I checked my database, and the new records were not added.
Is there something I have done wrong? Or is there perhaps something I left out? I also noticed there were several versions of readXML like readFromXML. Which one should I use and how?
Thanks.

KUBA, I changed my code to match your example:
DocumentBuilder db = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance().newDocumentBuilder();
File xmlFile = new File("C:/myfilehere.xml");
Document doc = db.parse(xmlFile);
Element element = doc.getDocumentElement();
vo.readXML(element, -1);
vo.getDBTransaction().commit();
I still get no errors, but my database table has no new records.
Any ideas why?
Thanks.

Error in CLOB datatype for transfering data from Excel to Oracle database

Am using excel sheet as source and Oracle as target Database.
For all tables the operations works smoothly except for tables containing CLOB datatype.
Initially i have used SQL Developer to transfer some data into excell sheets, now i want to transfer those file's data into another Oracle Database.
What other options do i have?
Is excel not the right tool to transfer CLOB datatypes?

well,
I couldn't suggest an excel to do it...
You can go from Oracle to Oracle with the PL/SQL IKM. It works fine.
Does it help you?

Data from MySQL to Oracle

Hi All,
Can anyone please help, how can i establish database link from oracle to mysql via pl/sql developer or sth else?
thank you
Ugur

yes, It is possible if your Oracle database running in Windows.
You can do this by creating the ODBC connection.
Install ODBC driver 3.51 on Oracle box
Create userid on MySQL
Setup ODBC connection on Oracle box and test until OK
Check Listener, tnsnames and init.ora are setup as per documentation
Restart listener
Test tnsping until OK
Create public MySQL_DBLINK DBLink on Oracle (UserId and Password are case sensitive!!!)
Test "select count(*) from anytable@MySQL_DBLINK;"
Check this link to create ODBC connection,

Save the excel data in .CSV file format, then use SqlLoader.
Your SqlLoader control file might look as follows

Updating data from grid to Oracle database.

Hi
I am having some trouble updating data in a grid back to the Database. I have provided an example below. I am using the ODP.NET protocol.
The query in the proc is a simple SELECT * FROM xxxx. There are no joins (outer or inner) at all. The table xxxx has a primary key. The proc is used to fill a grid. It does this correctly by returning data to a DataTable which is then used as the data source for a grid. Then, when I make a change in the grid and press the update button, the application trys to use the da.UpdateCommand = cmdBuilder.GetUpdateCommand() statement and gets the error
"Dynamic SQL generation failed. No key information found".
Note I have tried to get around this problem by adding a key to the DataTable ... no luck.
I also tried da.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey ... no luck.
I have also tried da.FillSchema(dt, SchemaType.Mapped); ... no luck.
What am I doing wrong? ... is there a better way?
public partial class Form1 : Form
private OracleConnection a_Conn = null;
private DataTable dt = null;
private OracleDataAdapter da = null;
private OracleCommand cmd = null;
public Form1()
InitializeComponent();
private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
a_Conn = new OracleConnection();
a_Conn.ConnectionString = "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX";
a_Conn.Open();
dt = new DataTable();
//SPS_TEST is a stored proc that takes no param and simply returns a dataset
cmd = new OracleCommand("SPS_TEST", a_Conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
//setup ref cursor (needed for oracle)
cmd.Parameters.Add("Cursor", OracleDbType.RefCursor, ParameterDirection.Output);
da = new OracleDataAdapter(cmd);
//da.MissingSchemaAction = MissingSchemaAction.AddWithKey;
DataColumn[] keys = new DataColumn[1];
keys[0] = dt.Columns["Name of Column with primary key in Table I have queried"];
dt.PrimaryKey = keys;
da.Fill(dt);
//grid is successfully filled at this point
fpSpread1.DataSource = dt;
private void btnUpdate_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
OracleCommandBuilder cmdBuilder = new OracleCommandBuilder(da);
da.UpdateCommand = cmdBuilder.GetUpdateCommand();
dt.AcceptChanges();
da.Update(dt);

To the best of my knowledge, and I may be wrong here, a ref cursor does not contain any base table information. It simply contains metadata about what's in the cursor itself. The commandbuilder doesnt know what table the data came from , if it even came from an actual db table at all. As such, it's not possible for the commandbuilder to know how to generate an update statement.
You CAN update a dataset you created from a refcursor, but you have to supply your own UpdateCommand in the case, rather than using a commandbuilder.
If your ref cursor is simply a select from a table, it would probably be pretty easy to (at design time) get and note the updatecommand and parameters from a select * from the table, and then use that for the updatecommand of the dataset filled from a refcursor, as the metadata should match up. Probably not something you'd want to do on the fly though.
Hope it helps,
Corrections/comments welcome.

How to store data from xml in oracle database

Hello All
Could anyone tell me ways of storing XML in Oracle and whats the best one in terms of performance issues.
any URL to this q/s would be great.
thanks
kedar

Ben,
The following link as some information regarding DOM API and XSQL.
http://asktom.oracle.com/pls/ask/f?p=4950:8:2923508047773696280::NO::F4950_P8_DISPLAYID,F4950_P8_CRITERIA:17309127931717
For XML DB, you may want to create an XMLSchema and build a table off the schema definition. Then use WEBDAV to load the xml into a folder (ie object table) Once the xml is in the database you could build a view for a relational look at the data.
Example from XMLDB Techical White Paper doc.
create or replace view PURCHASEORDER_MASTER_VIEW
(reference, requestor, userid, costcenter,...)
as select extractValue(Value(p),'/PurchaseOrder/Reference'),
extractValue(value(p),'/PurchaseOrder/Requestor'),
extractValue(value(p),'/PurchaseOrder/User'),
extractValue(value(p),'/PurchaseOrder/CostCenter'),...
from PURCHASEORDER p

Problem in migrating huge data from mysql to oracle using OMWB.

I'm using OMWB to migrate my mysql db to oracle db.Mysql db contains some 43 tables and all of them were copied to oracle db except a table "as_db" which contains some 503 mb of data.The table contains 3 columns and two of them were integer type and one is of medium blob.While migrating i'm not getting any error.After migrating i opened the table in the oracle.The table alone created but there were no datas.But all other table contains data.
Then i generated the ctl file usiing SQL*loader for that particular table alone and tried to execute but it also fails by giving the Column size exceeds for blob.
How i handle this issue?
Thanks in Advance,
Jai.M

Looks like you may have to save you blobs out as files and load them individually thru the sqlldr process. I know this has normally been done thru raw to blob
What way is your blob data being saved out in the extract data file.

How to handle DATE type problems in migrating from mysql to oracle.?

Hi,
I'm migrating only the data from mysql to oracle with the help of sql loader.But with this type i cannot able to insert the date values from mysql to oracle.In mysql i have defined date as "DATETIME" type and in oracle it is in TimeStamp.Whenever i'm inserting the values thru CTL file ,i'm getting an error invalid date format entered.How to solve this problem?
Thanks in Advance
JAI

you need to supply a mask to the timestamp entry. see http://download-west.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14215/ldr_field_list.htm#i1006714 for details on datatypes within the ctl file

Best practice for loading from mysql into oracle?

Hi!
We're planning migrating our software from mysql to oracle. Therefore we need a migration path for moving the customer's data from mysql to oracle. The installation and the data migration/transfer have to run onto different customer's enviroments. So migration ways like installing the oracle gateway and connect for example via ODBC to mysql are no option because the installation process gets more complicated... Also the installation with preconfigured oracle database has to fit on a 4,6 GB dvd...
I would prefer the following:
- spool mysql table data into flat files
- create oracle external tables on the flat files
- load data with insert into from external tables
Are there other "easy" ways of doing migrations or what do you think about the prefered way above?
Thanks
Markus

Hi!
Didn't anyone have this requirement for migrations? I have tested with the mysql select into file clause. Seems to work for simple data types - we're now testing with blobs...
