OWB and Oracle Express or other methods...

Hi
Is it possible to connect Express DB directly from OWB and share some Objects
or import some structures via EIF-Files?
What's the best way to migrate from Express to "up-to-date" olap? We have little bit complicated structures with lot of permits (because of extern partners) and more hierarchies on dimesions (incl. time dimension) etc.
thanks
Jarek

Mike,
Simply speaking, Express can be considered complementary to OWB. OWB helps you create/maintain a relational star-schema warehouse. Express can then be used to analyze the information in that warehouse using it's inherent on-line analytical processing (OLAP) capabilities.

  • Is there any problem for having Oracle and Oracle Express?

    Hi
    Thank you for reading my post
    is there any problem with having both oracle 10gR2 and oracle express installed on the same machine?
    thanks

    There is no theoretical technical problem with multiple Oracle databases on a machine, and I have indeed such an environment on several machines.
    Although people have been known to create their own technical problems by not being careful.
    You may want to review your knowledge of Oracle architecture, as you MUST have separate ORACLE_HOMEs. The ORACLE_HOME and ORACLE_SID are predefined for XE and it's important to keep things straight.

  • Oracle Reports 6.x and Oracle Express Server

    What are the benefits of using Oracle Reports in conjunction with Oracle Express Server? We are currently using OFA for planning and forecasting, and are evaluating Oracle Reports as a tool to produce and publish key financial reports for a large user community. Is there any benefit in using Oracle Reports rather than just creating and publishing the reports directly within OFA?
    Thanks,
    Bill

    Bill,
    we tried to use Reports 6i with Express server. There were many troubles.
    1. It is very hard task to establish connection Reports/Express
    2. It is not possible to enter parameters for the reports
    3.There are limitation on the number of dimensions in the report

  • SQLDeveloper and Oracle Express

    I have SQL Developer installed, and working.
    Then I installed DAtabase Express; after that I've been unable to connect to any database like I used to. I usually use TNS connection, but now SQLDev is reading the TNSNames from the XP database, instead of the one in oracle home. I think that is the reason I can't connect anymore...
    Any thoughts would be welcome.
    Thanks for any help.

    One thing I have noticed is that when you install an Oracle product using the installer (such as XE or a client) the installer puts the new product at the very beginning of your path. I normally have to edit my PATH variable to put my Oracle 10g Client home directory back at the beginning.
    That being said, it is possible to have one TNSNAMES.ORA file refer to (include) others. See this forum thread from last April: Re: IFILE directives in tnsnames.ora generate apparently harmless errors

  • OWB with oracle express?

    hello,
    is it possible to install OWB with the underlying Oracle Database 10g Express Edition?
    is this supported?
    thanks in advance
    -sven.

    Hi,
    with 10g XE you have no support from oracle:
    Requirements OWB 10gR2:
    The database can be any of the following versions:
    - Oracle9i Release 2 (9.2.x) Enterprise Edition
    - Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition R1 (10.1.x)
    - Oracle Database 10g Standard Edition R2 (10.2.x)
    - Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition R2 (10.2.x)
    But I think it would work with the owb. But not good, because of some missing functions like parallel DML, bitmapped index, ....
    See all of the restrictions in this document:

    The client makes the call (e.g. passing the PL/SQL anon block to the server to be parsed and executed).
    This is successful. The server returns a zero return code to that client call. This means successful completion of that database call.
    The client can now choose to display any message it wants to inform the user of that - from "+hey dude, it worked!+" to "+command completed successfully+" or whatever.
    The database does not return a message string in response to that call - only a return code. What the client can do is make another call and request the associated message from the client driver for that return code. In this case, an English language message file (as queried by the driver) will return the message string, "+normal, successful completion+".

  • Oracle Express 6.3.4 on Win2K Install bug

    Downloaded Oracle Express Server 6.3.4 build on Technet. It says its a Maintenance Release, but it needs some fixing itself. The release when 'Typical' installed on clean Win 2K with Oracle 9iR2 and OWB9i, skipping Oracle HTTP server configure, single Oracle_Home, installs successfully. But on rebooting the server, returns a scary entry point message in orb_r.dll, and Oracle Express Service fails to start. When you deinstall Oracle Express, it screws up PATH variable, throwing some apache.exe error, and Oracle HTTP server service not starting. Got the HTTP service going by modifying the oracle_apache.conf, and commenting the modose line. Reinstalling Oracle Express results in same orb_r.dll error. The orb_r.dll is probably some visibroker dll, and is 3.86MB in size, and dated 4/18/2001. Typical, as well as Complete Install, both result in same error.
    And this is after I tried installing the OES 6.3.2. The 6.3.2 build when extracted into a new folder under C:, creates the Setup.exe program, but the program refused to run when double clicked. 6.3.2 never installed, and 6.3.4 doesnt work. Anyone...

  • Oracle Express Server Vs Oracle 10g Express Edition

    Hi Guys,
    I have very basic doubt regarding Oracle Database 10g Express Edition and Oracle Express Server. Is both are same or its different ??
    Actually I am looking into docs of OFA i.e. Oracle Financial Analyzer, and before installing this I need to Install Oracle Express Server (OES).
    Does anyone has any idea on OES
    Thanks and Regards
    JC

    Thanks for clarification, I was suppose to write
    Oracle Application Express (formerly Oracle HTML DB) .Yup. It's pretty easy to get these mixed up. Especially since Express Server and Personal Express (the BI OLAP tools) really have been off the radar for several years, ever since most of the functionality was folded into the OLAP option of the Enterprise Edition.
    So what we have now is "Oracle Database 10g Release 2 Express Edition" with "Oracle Application Express" as a dev/ui tool. And I've noticed that some people are saying calling "Express Server" when they mean "Application Express".

  • SQL query against tables on MS SQL Server and Oracle using Oracle BI

    Hi All
    I have two databases Oracle and MS SQL Server. I want to write a query statement which will retrieve data from both databases and publish this data into one report. That is I want to join/merge data from tables in both database into one report with one SQL Statement something like:
    Select o.F1,o.F2, m.F1,m.F2
    from
    table@oracleServer o,
    table@microsoftSQLServer m
    where o.F1=m.F1;
    Can Oracle BI Publisher do this?
    Basically I want to query simultaneously two heterogeneous data sources in one SQL statement. Is there such a tool? I don't want to build a warehouse by moving data from SQL Server into Oracle or vice-versa. I don't want to duplicate data. I want to be able to query data at its source via 1 SQL statement.
    How would one go about doing such a thing?
    Many Thanks
    Kubilay.

    Hi Matt and Thomas
    Many thanks for your replies.
    Yes I have to do the join. Even worse I have to write an Aggregate query like this!
    Select o.F1,o.F2, m.F1,m.F2, count(*)
    from
    table@oracleServer o,
    table@microsoftSQLServer m
    where o.F1=m.F1
    group by o.F1,o.F2, m.F1,m.F2;
    These are 2 different systems (hardware & software) which actually do the same job, they produce transactions for a common business entity. Kind of, both sell tickets for the same ABC ferry company.
    I can not put them side by side on the dashboard, as I need to aggregate the data and present it maybe in a Oracle BI Report for Accounting and Financial reconciliation purposes.
    The truth is, as it is. I can't change it, is too late.
    I have to device a way to harvest both systems as they are. I don't want to move around data. I thought looking at Oracle BI I could write SQL against multiple Data Sources. I am struggling to find a way. As it seems that it can "SQL query" 1 data source at a time.
    I have been hinted on another forum (OracleTURK) to use Oracle Transparent Gateways and Generic Connectivity. http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14232/toc.htm
    Shame, I have to pay licenses for OWB and Oracle Transparent Gateways. I thought DB vendors can do better. Why do I have to pay to access the other 50% of the market.
    I can understand the performance implications this might have. Because of it I might even be forced at the end to move data (ETL) into a separate database, slice it into partitions and manage it that way. Pitty because currenlty I only need one report out of these systems but seems like will be dear to get.
    Thank you for all your help.

  • Oracle Express Edition & Enterprise Edition together

    Hi everybody,
    I have an application developed in VB.Net 2005 with Oracle Enterprise Edition 10g as backend.
    I also have a distributed desktop user for the same application which uses Oracle Express edition database.
    I want to write an application for Data synchronisation between Oracle Enterprise Edition and Oracle Express Edition for transfer of data to & fro.
    How can I connect both the databases in my data sync application (vb.net 2005)? I am also using ODP.net in this application?
    Any solutions ?
    Thanks
    Derasari

    Derasari,
    I'm going to ask an obvious question here, if you can connect the desktop user XE database to the Enterprise database, why don't the desktop users simply connect to the Application Express instance running in the EE database?
    It's an obvious question, but I had to ask it ;)
