Linking a dbase table to an Oracle one

Hello Every body
Is there a mean (by ODBC,JDBC or somethink else) to link a dbase table to an oracle table so that oracle process can read the dbase table from the oracle side?
Please advice.
Thanks in advance

Source(oracle 11g) with oracle 8i using db link with full table scan

Hi,
I'm using oracle 8i version and i'm facing some issue while using DBlinks.
SourceDB1 I'm using oracle 8i(Source)
select * from tab1
tabl where id in
(select id from stab1@SourceDB1 where updt_seq_num > 167720 and work_grp_id in (2900,2901))
For this, I could able to retrive the data.
but, today we have migrated one of our source from oracle 8i to oracle 11G
when I'm executing
select * from tab2
tabl where id in
(select id from stab2@SourceDB2 where updt_seq_num > 167720 and work_grp_id in (2900,2901))
we couldn't able to retrive data as it's scaning full table scan.
when oracle 8i source it's scanning using INDEX scan but if the source oracle 11 h it's scanning full table scan.
Could you please advise how to resolve this issue for source oracle 11i ?
Please let us know, if you need any information.

Blocks that are read via full table scans are stored in the buffer cache, but putting them at the MRU end ensures that they don't push the rest of the useful blocks out of the buffer cache. In your example, if you're full scanning a 2 GB table (T) with a 500 MB buffer cache, the first block that is read from T is put at the MRU end of the buffer cache, displacing the previous block that was at the MRU end of the cache. The next block that is read from T is also put at the MRU end of the buffer cache, displacing the previous block that was at the MRU end of the cache, so block #2 from T displaces block #1 from T. So, you're reading 2 GB of data, but you're constantly purging the older blocks, so you're only really using that last block of the buffer cache.

Linking One table with more then one tablespace

Hi,
Can anybody help to link one table to more then one tablespace?
Thanks in advance.

If the table is not partitionned you cannot store a table in different tablespaces. If the table is partitionned you can store each partition in a different tablespace. Example from 10.2 Data Warehousing Guide:
CREATE TABLE sales_composite
(salesman_id NUMBER(5),
salesman_name VARCHAR2(30),
sales_amount NUMBER(10),
sales_date DATE)
PARTITION BY RANGE(sales_date)
SUBPARTITION BY HASH(salesman_id)
SUBPARTITION TEMPLATE(
SUBPARTITION sp1 TABLESPACE ts1,
SUBPARTITION sp2 TABLESPACE ts2,
SUBPARTITION sp3 TABLESPACE ts3,
SUBPARTITION sp4 TABLESPACE ts4)
(PARTITION sales_jan2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('02/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY'))
PARTITION sales_feb2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('03/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY'))
PARTITION sales_mar2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('04/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY'))
PARTITION sales_apr2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('05/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY'))
PARTITION sales_may2000 VALUES LESS THAN(TO_DATE('06/01/2000','MM/DD/YYYY')));Edited by: P. Forstmann on 13 févr. 2010 09:08

Importing table dump from oracle into sybase

I was wondering if anyone has ever imported a table dump from oracle into sybase. I just tried it and it didn't work. I used TOAD to create my table dump file but when i imprted it into sybase using bcp in i got the following error
cs_convert: cslib user api layer: common library error: The result is truncated because the conversion/operation resulted in overflow.
CSLIB Message: - L0/O0/S0/N36/1/0:

If you are looking for a basic/standard way to exchange data between Oracle and Sybase, use the CSV format.
It is trivial to write a generic SQL*Plus script for Oracle to extract data from a table (or a SELECT) and spool this into a properly formatted CSV file.
It is also just as easy to use Sybase Bulk Copy utility to load that CSV file into Sybase.
There are also alternative methods. One would be to use Oracle's Heterogeneous Services. You can define a database link in Oracle that connects, via ODBC, to Sybase. And using this database link you can push (insert) data into Sybase.

Error while running spatial queries on a table with more than one geometry.

Hello,
I'm using GeoServer with Oracle Spatial database, and this is a second time I run into some problems because we use tables with more than one geometry.
When GeoServer renders objects with more than one geometry on the map, it creates a query where it asks for objects which one of the two geometries interacts with the query window. This type of query always fails with "End of TNS data channel" error.
We are running Oracle Standard 11.1.0.7.0.
Here is a small script to demonstrate the error. Could anyone confirm that they also have this type of error? Or suggest a fix?
What this script does:
1. Create table object1 with two geometry columns, geom1, geom2.
2. Create metadata (projected coordinate system).
3. Insert a row.
4. Create spacial indices on both columns.
5. Run a SDO_RELATE query on one column. Everything is fine.
6. Run a SDO_RELATE query on both columns. ERROR: "End of TNS data channel"
7. Clean.

This error appears in GeoServer and SQLPLUS.
I have set up a completly new database installation to test this error and everything works fine. I tried it again on the previous database but I still get the same error. I also tried to restart the database, but with no luck, the error is still there. I geuss something is wrong with the database installation.
Anyone knows what could cause an error like this "End of TNS data channel"?

Need help to join two tables using three joins, one of which is a (between) date range.

I am trying to develop a query in MS Access 2010 to join two tables using three joins, one of which is a (between) date range. The tables are contained in Access. The reason
the tables are contained in access because they are imported from different ODBC warehouses and the data is formatted for uniformity. I believe this cannot be developed using MS Visual Query Designer. I think writing a query in SQL would be suiting this project.
ABCPART links to XYZPART. ABCSERIAL links to XYZSERIAL. ABCDATE links to (between) XYZDATE1 and ZYZDATE2.

Thank you for the looking at the post. The actual table names are rather ambiguous. I renamed them so it would make more sense. I will explain more and give the actual names. What I do not have is the actual data in the table. That is something I don't have
on this computer. There are no "Null" fields in either of the tables.
This table has many orders (MSORDER) that need to match one order (GLORDER) in GLORDR. This is based on MSPART joined to GLPART, MSSERIAL joined to GLSERIAL, and MSOPNDATE joined if it falls between GLSTARTDATE and GLENDDATE.

Hi Gurus,
   Please tell me the link btween BUT000 and ADRC table. and i wrote one inner join between BUT000 and BUT0id table but it not working. I m in CRM 4.0 version working with PCUI.
select but000partner but000name_org1 but000name_org2 but000bus_sort1 but0id~parnter1
      but0ididnumber from but000 inner join but0id on but0idpartner = but000~parnter
into corresponding fields of table it_result where partner in s_partner.
It is giving error as partner unknown from but000 table. I delcared everything and tried with alias names also.
please clarify me.
regards,
Ramakrishna.

Hi Frederic,
   thanks a lot. But is inner join between BUT000 and BUT0ID will work. for me it is not working. plesae see this code.
tables : but000,
         but0id,
         crmm_but_custno,
         adrc.

                inner join but0id on but0idpartner = but000parnter. " where partner in s_partner.
it is giving error as but000-partner is not know or but0id-partner not known.
So, i think if it not works then i should write two select stmts.
please clarify me.
i gave u rating.

Crystal Report linked to a table with filter attached

I have a Crystal Report based on 2 tables and I want it to display every incident in the incident table and to pull the truckID of the
first truck on the scene from the truck table . So the finished product should look like this…
IncidentID IncidentNum ResponseTime First Arriving Truck Disctict
1x44452 1258ab55 5:32 B8 2
*The first arriving truck is the truck in the Truck Table with the same IncidentID and the earliest ArrivalTime. There will be multiple trucks for each incident but I want it to only show the one that arrived first (ArrivalTime). So one line per incidentID.
Incident Table
IncidentID
IncidentNum
ResponseTime
District
Truck Table (Will contain many trucks for one incident with the following info
Truckkey
IncidentID (Link to Incident Table)
ArrivalTime
TruckID
I figure I probably need to build a formula with the min function or perhaps an OnCommand – I’m just not sure.
The biggest issue is the overall report has 4 filter settings. They can select a date range, a location, an incident type and a range for the response time. So I do this with the Select Expert
I can get all of that to work except I cannot figure out how to get it to pull the First Arriving Truck without duplicating the incident
line. Also, if there is a Truck with an ArrivalTime of Null I want it to ignore that Truck Table record.
Can anyone help???

Hi Debbie,,
You may try this:
1) Go to the Group Expert > Create a Group on the 'Incident ID' field from the Incident Table
2) Insert a summary on the 'Arrival Time' field and place the field on the Group Footer
3) Move all the fields from the Details section to the Group Footer
4) Go to the Group Selection Formula (Report > Selection Formulas > Group) and use this code:
{Truck.ArrivalTime} = Minimum({Truck.ArrivalTime}, {Incident ID})
5) Suppress the Details Section

How to import a table from another oracle database ?

Hi all ,
i could like to use pl/sql to import one table from another oracle database server ?
is it possible to do this ?
A server B server
table: test <------------------------> table : newtest
the tns profile already configurated . the connection is ready .
thanks a lot !
Best Regards,
Carlos

if i don't have TEST table on server B whether COPY command will create this table on server B with the same structure ? If you specify CREATE as a clause the table will be created:
SQL> help copy
COPY
COPY copies data from a query to a table in a local or remote
database. COPY supports CHAR, DATE, LONG, NUMBER and VARCHAR2.
COPY {FROM database | TO database | FROM database TO database}
            APPENDCREATE|INSERT|REPLACE} destination_table
            [(column, column, column, ...)] USING query
where database has the following syntax:

Switch Linked (xl source) Tables - behavior change Excel 2010 PP vs. Excel 2013 PP -- In 2013 all calcs of table are lost

Situation:
PowerPivot 2010 Model based on 10 linked tables (this tables are generated and refreshed as needed by SQL 2012 MDS Excel-AddIn)
Unfortunately Excel MDS AddIn changes sometimes the tablename (case: MDS Add-In Filter changed, MDS Server changed). So after Change of tablename we have to fix the powerpivot link to this Excel tables in powerpivot to get powerpivot refresh working again
Problem:
With Excel 2010 PowerPivot this was possible without big Problems. As Long as table has identical structure one can Change/Switch the table in powerpivot Windows > Ribbon "Linked" Table > DropDown "Linked Table X" or during update
via Dialog "Errors in Linked Table"
After upgrading the solution to Excel 2013 this is not possible any more without loosing any column- or measure calcs defined for this table! :( Every time you Change the assigned Excel table for an existing linked powerpivot table..you
get following Dialog:
"You are changing the source of X to Excel table Y. Changing the source will remove all formatting, measures, KPIs, hierarchies, and other Settings applied to the table. Are you sure you want to to continute?"
Does anyone found a Workaround for persisting existing calc of linked tables when changing the sourcetable (to another Excel table with same structure)??
Dear MS, this is IMHO really a step backwards and blocks the migration of our existing Excel 2010 PowerPivot Solution? Should i create a connect entry for that?!
Version-Info:
2010 Version: 11.0.3000.0 (PP Ribbon>Settings)
2013 Version: 11.0.2809.81 (Product version displayed for dll c:\program files\Microsoft Office\Office15\Addins\PowerPivot excel Add-In\PowerPivotExcelClientAddIn.dll)

There is a very similar issue discussed here where i tried to show the different behavior in terms of linked tables in Excel/PowerPivot 2010 vs 2013
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/8fd927f7-30fd-49b7-809c-cb1414955638/linked-tables-excel-2013-vs-2010-difference?forum=sqlkjpowerpivotforexcel
maybe it helps you to understand the issue
I assume that MDS creates a new table every time you refresh it thereby breaking the link to PowerPivot
in case you only have calculated measure you may created a separate, independent linked table and define all calculated measures there
this way they at least would not get removed

Database Table Resource via Oracle RAC connection Manager

Hello,
Our current IDM 8.1 syncs off a HR Database Table using the Database Table connector.
Our DBA's are moving the view into an Oracle RAC environment.
Question: Is there a way for us to connect and sync off our DB table through an Oracle RAC connection manager.
I understand that for the IDM repository, this is possible.
jdbc:oracle:thin@(DESCRIPTION =
(ADDRESS_LIST =
(LOAD_BALANCE = ON)
(FAILOVER = ON)
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server1.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
(ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = server2.ser.com)(PORT = 1521))
(CONNECT_DATA =
(SERVER = DEDICATED)
(SERVICE_NAME = db.com)
servers server1 and server2 are oracle connection managers
Thank you for your input,
-RC

We moved the repository to Oracle RAC recently. The syntax to switch to the new databasecluster was something like this:
lh setRepo -tOracle -ujdbc:oracle:thin:@//dbcluster1.domain:1521/service_idm.oradb.domain -Uwaveset -Pwachtwoord
For the 'lh setRepo' command the old database had to be up, and we had to use the old ojdb5.jar. After that we switched to ojdb6.jar.
One of our resources is a database table with HR data in the same database. The following Database Access Parameters work for us:
Database Type:      Oracle
JDBC Driver:      oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver
JDBC URL Template:      jdbc:oracle:thin:@//%h:%p/%d
Host :     dbcluster1.domain
Database: service_idm.oradb.domain
Port: 1521

How do we link a new table to CRMC_OBJECTS?

RE: CRM4
I tried to use the BBP_PDIGP table in the CRMC_MAP transaction for UI Structure CRMT_ISALES_BASKETITEM_BBP, but it says that table is not part of CRMC_OBJECTS
How do we make BBP_PDIGP table part of CRMC_OBJECTS?
If we can link the BBP_PDIGP table to CRMC_OBJECTS, then I can map MATGROUP from the UI Structure above with CRMC_MAP to SCHEMA_TYPE.
Next, we need to map the SCHEMA_TYPE in CRM to the field in ERP that we have the data already.
Sounds simple enough...but, I don't know how to do the linkages.
Otherwise, how might we link the field SCHEMA_TYPE found in table BBP_PDIGP to one of the objects already found in the UI Structure CRMT_ISALES_BASKETITEM_BBP - Here's the available list:

Read from 2 tables, write only to one. Simple, but impossible??

I've been messing about with various annotations for quite a while now, and I can't seem to figure out how to accomplish this seemingly simple task. I'm hoping somebody could explain to me the probably very obvious and simple mistake that I am making.
I realize that question would otherwise point to problems in my database design and persistence strategy, but I can't seem to read from 2 tables, and write to only one. I have an entity bean that refers mainly to one table, but needs just one column of information from another table. It should not attempt to alter the secondary table, just join on it to get the one field it needs. So far, I've got the following:
@Entity
@Table(name = "ventureprofile")
@SecondaryTable(name = "venture",
                pkJoinColumns = @PrimaryKeyJoinColumn(name="ventureid"))
@NamedQueries( {
        @NamedQuery(name = "Ventureprofile.findByVentureprofileid", query = "SELECT v FROM Ventureprofile v WHERE v.ventureprofileid = :ventureprofileid"),
        @NamedQuery(name = "Ventureprofile.findByVentureid", query = "SELECT v FROM Ventureprofile v WHERE v.ventureid = :ventureid"),
        @NamedQuery(name = "Ventureprofile.findByVenturesummary", query = "SELECT v FROM Ventureprofile v WHERE v.venturesummary = :venturesummary"),
        @NamedQuery(name = "Ventureprofile.findByLogoimagelocation", query = "SELECT v FROM Ventureprofile v WHERE v.logoimagelocation = :logoimagelocation"),
        @NamedQuery(name = "Ventureprofile.findByVisible", query = "SELECT v FROM Ventureprofile v WHERE v.visible = :visible ORDER BY v.venturename")
public class Ventureprofile implements Serializable {
    @Id
    @GeneratedValue(strategy=GenerationType.AUTO, generator="Ventureprofile.ventureprofileid.seq")
    @SequenceGenerator(name="Ventureprofile.ventureprofileid.seq", sequenceName="ventureprofile_ventureprofileid_seq", allocationSize=1)
    @Column(name = "ventureprofileid", nullable = false)
    private BigInteger ventureprofileid;
    @Column(name = "ventureid", table="ventureprofile", nullable = false)
    private Long ventureid;
    @Column(name = "venturesummary")
    private String venturesummary;
    @Column(name = "logoimagelocation")
    private String logoimagelocation;
    @Column(name = "visible", nullable = false)
    private boolean visible;
    @Column(table = "venture", name = "venturename", nullable=false, insertable=false, updatable=false)
    private String venturename;
//... The extra column of data is "venturename", the tables are related by the column "ventureid". I contest, that since I have specified for read/write access no fields mapped to the 'venture' table (I specified with 'table=' any ambiguous columns), and described the table relationship via my @PrimaryKeyJoinColumn annotation, that toplink should not try to persist anything to the 'venture' table. However, I am getting the following exception:
Exception [TOPLINK-4002] (Oracle TopLink Essentials - 2.0 (Build b58g-fcs (09/07/2007))): oracle.toplink.essentials.exceptions.DatabaseException
Internal Exception: org.postgresql.util.PSQLException: ERROR: null value in column "venturename" violates not-null constraint
Error Code: 0
Call: INSERT INTO venture (ventureid) VALUES (?)
        bind => [220]
Query: InsertObjectQuery(VCMarkWeb.db.entity.Ventureprofile[ventureprofileid=220])
        at oracle.toplink.essentials.exceptions.DatabaseException.sqlException(DatabaseException.java:311)
...It seems pretty clear that toplink is trying to insert an empty row into the secondary table, and barfing since it is inserting no values, including those constrained to be nonnull. Anyway...I hope it's clear what's going on here, and perhaps somebody knows the right way to do this. Thanks fot your help!

Tom and Cornelius,
Thank you both for your ideas. This what I think I will do:
1) Drive up to OWC (fortunately they are only about 15 miles away from where I live) and get a bigger HD and some more RAM.
2) Copy the OS9 applications on the existing HD to a thumb drive.
3) Install the new hard drive and memory
4) Install OSX TIger and 9.2.2
5) Maybe do the 4.1.8 firmware update also, maybe.
6) Look around for a Superdrive and if I can get one for a good price, I'll do it otherwise I'll just use USB thumb drives if I need to copy something off the PB.
One thing that I was fighting with the other day was that when I had the yoyo power supply plugged in and attached when the PB was in the kitchen, the batteries would not charge although the yoyo was outputting +24 VDC.
I move everything to the garage, where I originally fixed the yoyo power supply, plug it in out there and the batteries started charging!!! Scratching my head...then I check the voltage between the metal barrel (with the Vsensing resistor attached between the metal shell and the ground wire) of power supply plug and the +24 VDC wire and there is 22 to 23 VDC with the batteries being charged. In the kitchen when they were not being charged, it was about 1.0 VDC. So I rotate the plug a little bit and the batteries start charging. Rotate it more and the batteries don't charge. Something else to do when I have spare time.
Anyway, thanks for the help and suggestions.

Select DBASE IV data from Oracle on Linux

Can I select DBASE IV data from Oracle on Linux

You can connect to DBase IV from Oracle by configuring Oracle Heterogenous Services. That will let you create a database link from Oracle to a non-Oracle database. Since there isn't a specific DBASE IV gateway, though, I believe you'll have to use the ODBC gateway, which would probably imply the necessity of a Windows box hosting Heterogenous Services.
