Migrating from Query Builder to Discoverer 10g

Can any one suggest that is there any ways that end user can edit/modify the query as they can do it in query Builder,with out editing worksheets.
Currently the queries were created by File->Import Sql option and granted access to users.Is there any provision for end users to change the query according to their needs and use it with out affecting other users?.

Hi
No this is not possible. Discoverer is a GUI tool and that is the way you have to edit the query. Having altered the GUI then Discoverer will rewrite the SQL.
Most end users don't have a clue about SQL in the first place. The whole point of having a GUI front end to ad-hoc query tool is that users don't need to know SQL to build a query. The EUL further means the users don't need to know how the database is put together.
People who use Discoverer to point directly at the database tables are missing the point of the EUL. The users of those systems are also missing out on the full functionality of the tool. This is why you don't manually edit the SQL behind a Discoverer worksheet.
Best wishes

What are the Issues in Migration from oracle 8i to oracle 10g

Hi,
Can you let me know what are the issues that i face when i migrate from oracle 8i to oracle 10g. I will be very thankful if you give me a list of issues that you face while migrating from 8i to 10g

In addition to Max's reply, you must be aware that you have to test your applications agains 10g database before you actually upgrade the database.
If you use CBO, it may produce different execution plans for one query when you run it in 8i and 10g. This may affect your application performances, which you don't like to happen.
Also you have to decide how much downtime you can afford during the migration. Can you afford some downtime and how much? If you can't than this makes the situation more complicated.
How big is your database? You may end up only with simple export/import solution using export import utility.
The bottom line is, whatever you decide, you must test your applications running against 10g database before you actually upgrade your database.

Issues migrating from Flex Builder 3 to Flash Builder 4.5

Migrating from Flex Builder 3 (SDK 3.5) to Flash Builder 4.5 (SDK 4.5). Using Flex 3 compatibility mode. Flash Player 10.2. MX only components set.
Issue 1. A DataGridColumn error per: Description Resource Path Location Type
Declaration of style 'direction' conflicts with previous declaration in C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Flash Builder 4.5\sdks\4.5.0\frameworks\libs\mx\mx.swc(mx.controls.dataGridClasses:DataGridColumn). SPT_GUI Unknown Flex Problem
Issue 2. Using Cairngorm 2. Have a class 'Bindable] public class GuiModel implements ModelLocator'. Now getInstance() is not defined per: private var model : GuiModel = GuiModel .getInstance(). Does Cairngorm 3 have to be used with Flash Builder 4.5?
What has to be done to resolve these issues?

Issue 2: Have you defined the static variable to hold the instance of the model locator? Also, have you defined a static method to return the model locator's instance?

Migration from Oracle 9i database to 10g in ECC5

Hi Experts,
We are planning to move our production system which is currently running ECC5 on AIX OS and Oracle 9i database to AIX OS and Oracle 10g database.
Some doubts regarding the above procedure:
1)Is there any possibility of SAP system migration from Oracle 9i to Oracle 10g. If yes, do we need to perform any addinitional steps for that?
2)If the above condition is OK, then what type of system copy should we need to follow: Homogeneous or Heterogeneous? Heterogeneous system copy is ususally done incase of system copy involving different databases. Does that apply for differnt versions too like Oracle 9i and 10g?
Any response is highly appreciated.
Regards,
Sanjay

If i'm using the dbua then the above issue will be solved by dbua itself?Well, DBUA will only perform a sanity check on your current release and if it doesn't pass it will fail. In other words DBUA will not upgrade your 9i release to the proper compatible release that you have to do before upgrading to 10R2.
Personally I never used DBUA, I always prefer manual upgrades, DBUA is good for you bcz it will not allow you to miss any step while upgrading.
What is the size of the database which you are going to upgrade?

Forms migration from 2.0 to Forms 10g/11g

Hi,
I want to migrate from forms 2.0 to 10g/11g. I know the migration path is 2.0->4.5->6i->10g/11g . I want to know is it feasible to do the migration from 2.0 to 10g/11g. what are the recommendations.
Thanks & Regards,

PITTS claim to be able to migrate forms from Forms 2.3 onwards.
http://www.pitss.com/solutions/pitsscon-solutions/forms-to-forms/
It depends on how much you want to spend...
However, if you're looking to do it yourself...
Do you have access to developer versions of Forms V3.0 or 4.5? It's easier if you go from 2.0 -> 3.0 -> 4.5/6i -> 10g. Each version has its own migration utilities, but they gradually remove support for earlier versions. Version 2 (2.3) triggers can exist in version 3, but not in later versions.
Do you have experience of Forms 6i or 10g? If not, you have the scope to re-write the application in the language of your choice. The Oracle website has a number of articles on migrating from Forms 3 and 6i, but not from earlier versions, so it depends on your current knowledge as to how you want to do.
I've migrated Forms 3.0 (with 2.3 style triggers) to 10g by hand. It requires an understanding of how Forms used to work compared to how it works now. You will basically be creating your new application from scratch (depending on what you have been able to upgrade) based on the the blocks and items of your old forms. Your task will be so much easier if you have the intermediate Forms developer tools (4.5/6i).
You'll also be upgrading your database. I assume that you are on Oracle 6/7.

Query Builder (Express Edition 10g) is not working in Google Chrome

Google Chrome is not properly displaying table in SQL Query Builder (Oracle Database Express 10g).
It is not possible to select all fields of given table because not all fields are displayed and I can't go down to select last field.
In Mozilla Firefox this is possible. In Google Chrome table bar is not displayed.

Upgrade to APEX 4.0 - it should work then properly also in Google Chrome.

Migrating from Sybase 11 to Oracle 10G : Data not Captured

Hi,
We are working on an interesting customer engagement - one part of the effort is to migrate our Customer's Database. Our Customer is using the Sysbase 11 Database - we are planning to migrate this to Oracle 10G.
We are using the latest Migration Workbench - 10.1.0.4.0. We created a new user in one of our local DB Instances & used this credential to login to the Migration Workbench tool. We have the Source Files for the Sysbase 11Database.
We tried to capture the Source Model - unfortunately, the Tool claims that the Objects have been migrated, while the Source is not captured at all. The Error Log is alos silent about any problems.
We are flummoxed by this error as we have successfuly migrated from Sysbase in the past, but never encountered this error.
Can you guuys please help us out with this ?
Please do let me know if I need to post more information
Thanks,
Sandeep

Sandeep,
Have you used this user which holds the omwb repository before for a migration? When you connected the first itme, did you get a message, that the repository tables did not exist and would you like to create them?
Are you using the connected or disconnected source model load?

Db migration from Solaris 8i to windows 10g

There is requirement to move db from solaris8(dbversion8170 to window Server 2003 (10204 already installed)
DB is about 80gb big, what would be the best approach ?
I am thinking to create new db on windows, and export and import data.....any concerns/suggestion?
Source System
SQL> select * from v$version;
BANNER
Oracle8i Enterprise Edition Release 8.1.7.4.0 - 64bit Production
PL/SQL Release 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
CORE 8.1.7.0.0 Production
TNS for Solaris: Version 8.1.7.4.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 3.4.1.0.0 - Production
Target System
SQL> select * from v$version;
BANNER
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.4.0 Production
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production

what are other options i can try ?I only mention this approach because you asked. I wouldn't recommend it as a general strategy. exp/imp is the most straight-forward.
We are in the process of migrating from 9.2.0.6 to 11.1.0.7 (11.2 is not an approved standard yet in our enterprise), moving from Solaris to Linux, and consolidating two related instances into one.
We had to handle some unique situations due to our consolidation, so we did a lot of the steps manually that exp/imp does for you. A side benefit of this extra work is the actual down time is can be less than exp/imp itself, and avoids the need to dump all the data to disk and read it all again. We have about 500GB to migrate. It is a lot more work than a simple exp/imp, and is probably not be worth the effort for a single 80GB instance.
Our steps (oversimplified, there are more details than this) :
Set up the new instance and configure storage
Create users and roles in new DB
export structure only (using 9i exp)
import structure only (using 11g imp), without indexes or constraints
copy data (insert /*+APPEND*/ into.. select * from ... over a database link)
create indexes and constraints
Handling LONG data, materialized views, interdependencies between schemas each presented their own special circumstances I had to deal with.
The other path to get from 8i to 10g (mentioned only for academic reasons) is do a series of upgrades-in-place to get from 8i to 10.2.0.4 then use cross-platform transportable tablespaces to go from Solaris to Windows.

Migrating from BusinessObjects to Oracle Discoverer

Has anybody had experience of migrating BusinessObjects universes/reports to Discoverer EULs/reports etc.?

Steve,
I am in the process of doing exactly that - but am working on a pretty manual basis. I am not aware of any tools to read the universe design and create a business area from it.
My process has been to print out the universe ERD and then recreate it piece by piece in Discoverer with iterative testing. I know, not very helpful - but I am getting similar results (albeit with different formatting).
Good day,
Geoff

Migrate from DB2 7 to Oracle 10G(R1)

Hi, all.
I have a big DB2 db. When Oracle and DB2 set up on different computers, OMWB works good. When i install Oracle and DB2 on one system UDB7 driver not work - on step "Source Database details", when i enter user ID/pass and database name, then do nothing :(.
How explane it?
User information correct. DB2 ODBC driver - worked...
Can you help me?

Are you missing a zip file, or are using an unsupported by omwb version of the zip file/driver?
That is what is suggested by a java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError found message from Java.
It is also possible, but less likely, that some corporate anti-virus/security software has changed the software. There was a post concerning that possibility recently months ago. [search for www.trend.com on this forum: Urgent help-Unable to login into OMWB
Posted: Jan 30, 2007 11:23 PM]
From the User Guide:
Before Migrating From IBM DB2 UDB
To configure an IBM DB2 UDB database for migration:
1.
Install the IBM DB2 UDB Client software on the same system as Migration Workbench.
This automatically installs the IBM DB2 UDB JDBC driver contained in the db2java.zip file.
Note:
Migration Workbench supports the use of either the JDBC 1.2 or JDBC 2.0 compliant IBM DB2 UDB JDBC driver.
2.
Copy the db2java.zip file to the following directory:
OMWB_install_dir/Omwb/drivers
3.
Make sure that you can login to the IBM DB2 UDB database with a user name that has database administrator privileges.

Migrating from 5 to 6i to 10g

Hi
I'm migrating form and reports from 5 to 10g.
Before this i compiled all the files in oralce forms 6i. Its working fine in forms 6i.
When i compiled in the devsuite 10g it doesn't given any error.But LOV's are not working.
Suppose if i press F9 on the column it doesn't displya the LOV screen.
Please help me immedietly if any body faced the same issue.
Thanks in advance

It's not only renaming CTRL+L into F9. If you read the content of fmrweb.res (or fmrpcweb.res) you will see that a certain syntax is required to define a key:
# JFN : JMN : URKS : FFN : URFD (whitespace ignored)
# JFN = Java function number
# JMN = Java modifiers number
# URKS = User-readable key sequence (double-quoted)
# FFN = Forms function number
# URFD = User-readable function description (double-quoted)
My prefered way is:
- make a backup copy of fmrweb.res
- make a copy of fmrpcweb.res and rename the copy to fmrweb.res
- restart OC4J

Database migration from Tru64 to HPUX on 10g

We'll be migrating off of Tru64 to HP-UX on Oracle 10g. We'll be using data pump to export the Tru64 version and data pump to import into the HP-UX release. All of the documentation that we've found says to do a full export and a full import. Full exports include the SYSTEM schema in addition to the application owner. Our plans are to do the following:
1) perform a full export from the Tru64 server
2) create a new instance on the HP-UX side, that includes creating all of the tablespaces
3) perform a full import into the HP-UX side
Because we have performed a full export, when we do a full import we get warnings about the SYSTEM objects existing. What do we do about the warnings?
What is the best practice for full database imports using data pump?
Are there other considerations we should be aware of?
Thanks in advance.

I remember system schema issues from the old import and export, there is normally no problem from memory .. but i am thinking from memory.
Perhaps worth noting the rowcounts and objects before and after your import just in case anything new has appeared ... i seem to remember some related to sqlplus.
I always think exports are easy ... imports are harder.
Also if your imports are giving you time problems there may be some things that can help speed it up: There are others who could give better advice on this.
See for example here [http://www.dba-oracle.com/t_import_impdp_import_performance_speed.htm] ... i came accross this with a quick google.
Tuning a temporarily large db_cache_size / sga_target / pga_target might be helpful, but if paging is caused this is counter productive.
The parallel option on impdp might be helpful.
The following are complicated and probably should only be tried if you need the speed:
- Temporarily setting larger tables with more than one index to cache before export and changing back afterwards.
- To go really on the knife-edge move your redo logs to a ramdisk temporarily to get a little extra speed , but this is a very very very dangerous practice. (I am nutter who has done this!)
