Excel import on Oracle Linux - How to create an ODBC Connection

Hi,
We have Oracle BI EE on Oracle Linux. We need to create an ODBC DNS and import tables to Admin tool.
How would you create a ODBC connection inside Linux to Microsoft excel file using unixodbc. What drivers we need.
Please let us know.
Thanks!
Nilaksha.

See this post here: Re: [NQODBC][SQL_STATE: HY000][nQSError: 100[nQSError: 43093][nQSError: 16023]
You need to find an Excel ODBC driver for Linux. The ones that come with OBIEE won't read Excel as far as I know.
For info on creating an ODBC connection for OBIEE on Linux check the manual or search this forum. You don't need unixodbc for it.

How to create an odbc connections to LMS 4.0.1 database

Any help will be appreciated.

Oracle 10g is obsolete. Oracle 11g is already at terminal release.
Have you installed the Oracle rdbms software?
Installing Oracle and Building the Database
If you are going to be a professional DBA, you need to learn to
1) read the documentation
2) wean yourself from dependence on pictures and GUIs.
3) read the documentation
=================================================
Learning how to look things up in the documentation is time well spent investing in your career. To that end, you should drop everything else you are doing and do the following:
Go to docs.oracle.com.
Locate the link for your Oracle product and version, and click on it.
You are now at the entire documentation set for your selected Oracle product and version.
BOOKMARK THAT LOCATION
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what is available here. Take special note of the "books" and "search" tabs. Under the "books" tab (for 10.x) or the "Master Book List" link (for 11.x) you will find the complete documentation library.
Spend a few minutes just getting familiar with what kind of documentation is available there by simply browsing the titles under the "Books" tab.
Open the Reference Manual and spend a few minutes looking through the table of contents to get familiar with what kind of information is available there.
Do the same with the SQL Reference Manual.
Do the same with the Utilities manual.
You don't have to read the above in depth. They are reference manuals. Just get familiar with what is there to be referenced. Ninety percent of the questions asked on this forum can be answered in less than 5 minutes by simply searching one of the above manuals.
Then set yourself a plan to dig deeper.
- *Read a chapter a day from the Concepts Manual*.
- Take a look in your alert log. One of the first things listed at startup is the initialization parms with non-default values. Read up on each one of them (listed in your alert log) in the Reference Manual.
- Take a look at your listener.ora, tnsnames.ora, and sqlnet.ora files. Go to the Network Administrators manual and read up on everything you see in those files.
- *When you have finished reading the Concepts Manual, do it again*.
Give a man a fish and he eats for a day. Teach a man to fish and he eats for a lifetime.

How to create a new connection from SAPGUI to Test drive?

Hi,
I have installed Sap Netweaver Test drive on a linux virtual machine (windows host). The installation was successful and I was able to start the instance (application server and the database), yet I don't know how to create a new connection from my SAPGUI client (7.20) to this server. The static IP address of the server is 192.168.1.160.
I entered the following values for my new connection entry
Description: SAP Netweaver
Application server: 192.168.1.160
Instance number: 01
System ID: DB2
SAProuter: /H/192.168.1.160/S/3201/H/
But it does not work. Any idea about the values needed for creating a new entry?
Thanks in advance,
Dariyoosh

Hello there,
Thank you very much for your answer which solved my problem. In fact there was no need of providing router string.

Can't Create the ODBC connection for Oracle 10g

Hi,
I am working with Oracle 10g Database Release 2 in windows XP professional. I am trying to create an ODBC connection for oracle but become failure because its generating the following errors:
system error code 998
could not locate the setup or translator library
Please help me how can I solve this problem and create the ODBC connection for oracle 10g database.
Best Regards,

system error code 998
could not locate the setup or translator libraryThe symptom described is typical of an incorrect system env PATH setting (used by the data source admin tool), compared to that of the Oracle Home (specifically, path $OH/bin). The odbc driver config routine will search directories listed in PATH variable for necessary libraries (Client dll's). If some library fails to load (from e.g. oraoci*.dll or oraclient10.dll) it will probably error out, as in your case.
Are you creating the odbc dsn on the databse server host or on some other machine? I.e. are you using the db host as a client or not?

How to add in ODBC connection and configuration for data connection

Hello expert,
on my computor, there is a oracle client for oracle 10g. now there is new oracle 11g installed , I want to create a ODBC connection to this new database. but when I create ODBC , I can't find server type for oracle 11g , there only has driver for oracle 10g. will you please tell me how to create ODBC for this new DB? will you please tell me where is the configuration file for data source on my computor?
Many Thanks,

Many Thanks,So, on this machine you have
- Oracle 10g client (only), and in a seperate ORACLE_HOME
- Oracle 11g rdbms
First, the 10g client will connect quite well to the 11g database
Second, the 11g database includes the basic client admin software, but the odbc drivers are not installed by default. You have to run OUI and choose 'custom' installation, then select 'windows components' from the list of available components.
I've never wanted to install the odbc driver as part of the database installation. Only on remote client installations.
What are you really trying to achieve?

Oracle Lite: How to create data subsetting parameters?

I need to know:
how to create data subsetting parameters?
I need these parameters for use of a restricting predicate in an item publication.
I were looking the forum and i found topics about "how to set?" but i don't found how to create a data subsetting parameter.
I am replacing SQL server 2000 and SQL server CE by oracle 9i and oracle lite 5.0.2.
Thanks in advance.
PCID

Had problems with the parameters shown on pages webtogo in the datasubsettings section because none of them were "defined", but in sections 1.4.1.2 I found these lines:
Template: select * from master.task where CustCity = :city
Then click OK. This brings you back to the previous screen. The template query contains a variable (subscription parameter) named "city". Later, when you provision the application to a user, you will be prompted to enter the value for it.
I found out how to put a parameter to restrict registries that download to the pocket pc from each user.
Thank you very much!!!

How to create a data connection with dynamic XML file?

Thanks for all reply first!
I have formatted the submitted data into an XML file on the server side,this file can be import to PDF form correctly.
I try to send this XML file to the user to let him can review what he has submitted.
I guess that I should create a data connection to the XML file so that it can be reviewed by the user.
But the question is that the XML file is dynamic generated.
How can i do?
give me some clus or examples,please.
thanks,
Jasper.

Hi Jasper,
To show user back the result, you can use PDF instead of XML. You can store the PDF template in server and you can merge XML data with PDF template by Livecycle Form Data Integration service.
We, as KGC, can generate huge number of Adobe Livecycle forms in small periods. Also we give consultancy on Adobe Livecycle ES products and Adobe Livecyle Designer. In case of any need, do not hesitate to contact us.

How to create an ODBC entry from Java

From Java application, how can I create an ODBC entry in Ms Windows client?

I know of two ways you could do this. One is very dangerous, but I will describe it here. ODBC DSN's are created using a GUI application from within the Windows Control Panel. The GUI application manages a set of files found in the Windows directory. You can find them if you search for the ODBC. You should find odbc.ini and odbcinst.ini. These are text files, and you can view there structure using notepad. A Java program could open a stream and append whatever information you want to into these two files. The danger is that if you do it wrong, you will corrupt ODBC for all applications, so be very careful with this method.
The 2nd method, as I described above has been discussed (to death) within this forum. Just spend a little time searching, and I know you will find what you need to implement using that method. This is the method I would recommend using.
Good Luck,
Joel
