Setting OracleXE as a Linked Server

Can anyone please provide details of setting OracleXE as a Linked server from SQL Server.
I have both installed as local instances on the same machine with the standard configurations.
Thanks in advance
Paul

Try the following from SQL Server:
exec sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'OracleTest1', @srvproduct = 'Oracle', @provider = 'MSDAORA', @datasrc = 'XE'
exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = 'OracleTest1', @useself = 'False', @locallogin = NULL, @rmtuser = 'hr', @rmtpassword = 'hr'
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(OracleTest1, 'SELECT * FROM hr.Departments')

  • Setting up OracleXE as SQL Server Linked server

    I have recently installed OracleXE locally following the standard installation instructions. On the same machine I also have a local instance of SQL Server. I want to set OracleXE as a linked server to the Instance of SQL Server.
    Can any provide me with some idiot guide instructions to follow.

    Assuming you have all the privileges to create and publish in Designer and webi?deski
    1) Create system DSN on the server and your machine (in case if you are developing on your system and exporting to server)
    2) In Designer, Create a Connection
    3) Design Universe
    4) Export universe
    5) Create a report (DeskI/ WebI) depending on your need.

  • Linked Server 101

    How can I tell within SQL navigator whether a Server has been set-up as a linked server???
    Once I have determined that it is a Linked Server, how do I navigate to it with a SQL Script??? Do I need special logon credentials to the Linked Server??? Do I have to provide the logon credentials via the SQL Script???
    I am doing some pretty in-depth analysis and I am trying to write a query that will bring all the pieces together. A couple of the columns I want are in a different database and schema than the one I'm working with.
    Any help would be GREATLY appreciated and Thanks in advance for your review and response.

    Linked Server is a SQL Server term. Are you familiar with the words Database Link and/or Heterogeneous Connection?
    You do not "navigate" to anything rather you reference the link in your DDL and DML.
    The Oracle docs can be found at http://tahiti.oracle.com.

  • What is oracle Linked Server

    What is Oracle Linked server? is it a part of oracle database administration?please give some brief introduction of Oracle Linked server.
    Edited by: 933618 on 18/05/2012 01:51

    SQL Server Linked Servers feature lets you access Oracle data and data from other OLE DB/ODBc compatible data sources from SQL Server. Here are the basic steps for setting up an Oracle linked server.
    1. Install and Configure the Oracle Client Software
    Oracle client software provides the network libraries required to establish connectivity to an Oracle database system.Download the software from http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/index.html. Install the software on your SQL Server system and configure it by using Oracle Net Configuration Assistant.
    2. Create the Linked Server
    Create a linked server by using the T-SQL command
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
    'OracleLinkedServer', 'Oracle',
    'MSDAORA', 'OracleServer'
    The name of the linked server is Oracle-LinkedServer.The second parameter, product name (Oracle),is optional.The third parameter specifies the OLE DB provider. MSDAORA is the name of the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle.The final required parameter is the data source name, Oracle Server.
    3. Add Logins for the Linked Server
    Next, provide the SQL Server system with an Oracle login to access the Oracle database by using the sp_addlinkedsrvlogin command
    EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin '
    OracleLinkedServer ', false,
    'SQLuser', 'OracleUser',
    'OraclePwd'

  • Can ODBC set by Instant Client be used in MS SQL linked Server?

    Hi:
    I want to know if a ODBC set by Instant Client can be used to set a linked server in MS SQL.
    I follow the install instruction about Instant Client.
    I create a ODBC setting and the connection tested successful.
    I also build it in DTS package in MS SQL and the data transfer process can be run correctly.
    But when I tried to build a linked server from MS SQL to oracle, it always returned the error message
    System1 Setting:
    MS Win 2003 + MS SQL 2000 + Instant Client 10.1.0.4
    System2 Setting:
    MS Win 2000 + Oracle 9.2
    Any opinion or suggestion is appreciated.

  • Connecting to a cube via a linked server

    Hi
    I want to connect to a SSAS cube via a linked server. When I ran a query against the SSAS cube from directly from the SQL server it runs fine.
    If however I run the query in SSMS from my PC I get
    OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "SSASServer01" returned message "The following system error occurred: .".
    Msg 7373, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
    Cannot set the initialization properties for OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "SSASServer01".
    In the properties on the linked server I've defined an account to use for the connection to get round the double hop issue
    Any Ideas why I'm still getting the error?
    Alex

    Hi Mr P,
    According to your description, you get the error 7373 with message "Cannot set the initialization properties for OLE DB provider "MSOLAP" for linked server "SSASServer01"." when connecting a SSAS cube via linked server.
    Right?
    In this scenario, based on the error code 7373, it points to the issue of MSOLAP provider, please firstly check the properties setting for MSOLAP. Make sure the "Allow Inprocess" is selected. You may also have other options selected depends on
    your query.
    Also check if ports for your server (1434 and 2383) are listening proper locally and externally. Please refer to a similar thread below:

  • Need help setting up my d-link wireless router to my imac

    I need some help trying to set up my D-Link WBR 2310 wireless router to my iMac. I currently have Bell Sympatico high speed.
    The reason I want to set up the wireless router is because my girlfriend works from home sometimes with her office computer downstairs and needs a wireless connection (she has a PC). I tried to call D-Link, but they're useless.
    Anyways, any help would be greatly appreciated. It would be great to know what settings to change and as much step by step info as possible. I realize it's probably pretty simple to set up, but I'm fairly new to Macs and also to wireless.
    Thanks again

    Hello, 
    Connect the D-Link to the iMac by Ethernet.
    Open Safari (or Firefox)
    Navigate to http://192.168.1.1
    Enter your password (default user is Admin and password "admin" - change it!)
    Find the Wireless Security section and change the SSID to your own name i.e. "home network" .
    Set the Encryption setting to "WPA" and enter a password of your choice. This is the encryption key and is different to the router's admin password.
    Configure the WAN part of the router (which will vary depending on your ISP).
    Configure the DHCP to serve clients (should be a simple on/off).
    Disconnect the iMac
    Go to the iMac and turn on Airport on (on the menu bar).
    When the iMac finds your SSID select it and enter the encryption password.
    Check to allow Keychain to store that detail.
    Hope that helps

  • UCCX 10.1 - Linked Server - Copying HR data to external SQL Server for reporting

    I have a customer that is migrating from UCCX 7 to UCCX 10.  They currently have a 2008 SQL Server R2 that they use for custom reports.  They have a package that runs nightly to copy relevant data from UCCX 7 to the their server and then run reports daily against that database.   Pretty easy when everything is in MS SQL.  My plan was to set up a linked server in SQL 2008 to the UCCX server.  This would allow me to easily run a query against Informix and move the data over as before.  However, I am having problems adding the linked server.
    I have installed the Informix drivers (both 32 and 64 bit) during the troubleshooting.
    The DSN is created and connects to UCCX just fine.
    When I attempt to add the linked server using 64 bit driver DSN I get the following:
    Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "UCCX101".
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "UCCX101" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "UCCX101" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "UCCX101" returned message "[Informix][Informix ODBC Driver][-11302] Insufficient Connection information was supplied". (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
    When I attempt to add the linked server using the 32 bit driver DSN I get the following:
    Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "32UCCX101".
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "32UCCX101" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] The specified DSN contains an architecture mismatch between the Driver and Application". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)
    It appears to me there is a 32/64 bit conflict no matter route I go.
    Can anyone tell me what I am missing?
    Is there a better approach to take to achieve the ultimate goal?
    Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
    TIA
    John

    I have created linked servers on an SQL2K box that points back to CCX. First off, you have to set the password for the UCCX HR user to some known value.
    exec sp_dropserver 'fonccx9_01', 'droplogins'
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
    @server='fonccx9_01', -- Name of the Linked Server, when it is created.
    @srvproduct='Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC', -- OLE DB Provider.
    @provider='MSDASQL', -- Provider_name.
    @datasrc ='fonccx9-01', -- DSN Name of the ODBC Data Source.
    @provstr= -- ODBC Connection String.
    'Driver={IBM Informix ODBC};Server=fonccx9_01_uccx;Database=db_cra; Uid=uccxhruser; Pwd=Some-Password;'
    EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
        @rmtsrvname = 'fonccx9_01',
        @useself = 'FALSE',
        @rmtuser = 'uccxhruser',
        @rmtpassword = 'Some-Password'
    Note that the server name is "fonccx9-01", but the dash is an illegal character in the server name, so you have to change that to an underscore. You still have to manually build the ODBC data source on the box where you are trying to create the linked server.

  • How to create a view on SQLServer 2008 as an OPENQuery select to a MYSQL linked server

    I am trying to create a view on SQLServer through Management Studio based on data on a MYSql server.
    I have created the Linked server and I am able to query all data.
    Using the syntax select * from OPENQUERY (linkedServer, 'select * from MYSQL-table') - This works fine
    What I am trying to do now is issue the following statement
    create view ViewnameToBeCreatedOnSQLServer
       as select * from OPENQUERY (linkedServer, 'select * from MYSQL-table')
    When I run this from SSMS I get the following error
    OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TESTTSC2" returned message "[MySQL][ODBC 5.1 Driver][mysqld-5.0.95-log]Table 'FP.M3' doesn't exist".
    Msg 7350, Level 16, State 2, Procedure FPMaster3, Line 2
    Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TESTTSC2".
    The account I am using has create view privs and alter schema privs on the SQlServer side. I am assuming there are not isues on the MYSQL server side since I am able to successfully run the select statement using OPENQUERY.  There must be one small
    piece I am missing. has anyone experienced the same problem and were you able to find a solution?

    All the configurations seem to be in place correctly since I can SELECT any data with no issues. The statement   
    select * from OPENQUERY (linkedServer, 'select * from MYSQL-table')
    works fine and I can change the table I am selecting from which all return data. Therefore, the objects all exists in MYSQL.
    The DSN is set up, the linked Server is good, the provider is set up, the DB account has all privs.
    It only fails when I try to create the view on SQLServer as a select from a remote table accessed via the linked MYSQL server. I connect to SQLServer with DB account PS which has full privs including CREATE VIEW and ALTER SCHEMA. The MYSQL pass-through account
    has read access to all objects in the MYSQL schema. I am trying to figure out if I might be missing some little part of this puzzle when trying to create a new object (CRESTE VIEW) vs. just reading the data (SELECT).
    The kicker in all this is that I did create a view on SQLServer in this manner about a year ago and I am able to see the view definition and that view still works! So, this is quite interesting that I am not able to create a new object.
    If there any specific information I could provide which might help, I am happy to do that. Just did not want to provide the details on all of the puzzle pieces if it can be avoided but if it comes to that then that's OK also.
    Thanks very much! I appreciate your help.

  • Error while linked server is used to verify the existence of a table

    Hi All,
    Pls help me solve an issue related to linked Server..
    Following is my query:
    IF EXISTS (select 1 from [LinkedServerName].Sales.sys.tables where name = 'SalesTable') 
    BEGIN
     DECLARE @LastSales varchar(25) 
     SET @LastSales = (select CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),max(LastSalesTime)) from [LinkedServerName].SalesDB.dbo.SalesTable)
    END
    What should happen is, it should check the existence of SalesTable on Linked Server (select 1 from [LinkedServer].Sales.sys.tables where name = 'SalesTable'), and only after the it returns 1, the variable @LastSales should be alloted a value.
    But in my case, as soon as I run the code, it gives the error:
    The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "LinkedServerName" does not contain the table ""Sales"."dbo"."SalesTable"". 
    The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.
    My question is that if the condition fails at the very outset returning null (as the table does not exist), then why it is entering BEGIN and throwing the error.
    All your valuable inputs are appreciated !!

    Inconsistency is the hailmark of SQL Server.
    If you say:
    IF EXISTS (select 1 from Sales.sys.tables where name = 'SalesTable') 
    BEGIN
     DECLARE @LastSales varchar(25) 
     SET @LastSales = (select CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),max(LastSalesTime)) from        SalesDB.dbo.SalesTable)
    END
    This will work as you expect. That is, if the table does not exist, the batch will parse and produce no result. This is because SQL Server has deferred name resolution for tables. If a table is missing at compile time, SQL Server suppresses the error in
    hope that the table will be there at run-time.
    But there is an exception to this. For table sources on remote data sources, there is no deferred name resolution, but the table has to be there at compile time. This is quite ironic. Personally, I think deferred name resolution (which was introduced in
    SQL 7) is a big misfeature, but I could buy if there was deferred name resolution for objects on linked server, since the server may be down, and you have coded for this like you have above. Well, if the server is down, the IF EXISTS will fail to compile to.
    You will need to introduce a new scope somewhere to avoid the problem. For instance:
    IF EXISTS (select 1 from [LinkedServerName].Sales.sys.tables where name = 'SalesTable') 
    BEGIN
       DECLARE @LastSales varchar(25) 
       EXEC [Linkedservername].SalesDB.sys.sp_executesql
            N'SET @LastSales = (select CONVERT(VARCHAR(25),max(LastSalesTime)) from SalesTable)',
            N'@LastSales varchar(25) OUTPUT', @LastSales
    END

    The subject line and the first point on your list indicates that you want to connect to a Hive data source using ODBC. But the error message tells us that you have set up a linked server with SQL Server Native Client, which is the OLE DB provider you would
    use if you want to connect to another SQL Server instance.
    For using an ODBC driver, you need to use the MSDASQL provider, and in the @provstr argument you specify which ODBC driver you want to use. That is, something like:
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'SQLHive', '', 'MSDASQL',
         @provstr = 'Driver={Hive ODBC Driver}....'
    As I have not worked with the Hive ODBC Driver, I don't know exactly what goes into the @provstr parameter, but it would be the same as if you connected to Hive from an application.

  • The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server ...

    Our setup is that we have two databases; a SQL Server 2008 database and an Oracle database (11g). I've got the oracle MTS stuff installed and the Oracle MTS Recovery Service is running. I have DTC configured to allow distributed transactions. All access to the Oracle tables takes place via views in the SQL Server database that go against Oracle tables in the linked server.
    (With regard to DTC config: Checked-> Network DTC Access, Allow Remote Clients, Allow Inbound, Allow Outbound, Mutual Authentication (tried all 3 options), Enable XA Transactions and Enable SNA LU 6.2 Transactions. DTC logs in as NT AUTHORITY\NetworkService)
    Our app is an ASP.NET MVC 4.0 app that calls into a number of WCF services to perform database work. Currently the web app and the WCF service share the same app pool (not sure if it's relevant, but just in case...)
    Some of our services are transactional, others are not.
    Each WCF service that is transactional has the following attribute on its interface:
    [ServiceContract(SessionMode=SessionMode.Required)]
    and the following attribute on the method signatures in the interface:
    [TransactionFlow(TransactionFlowOption.Allowed)]
    and the following attribute on every method implementations:
    [OperationBehavior(TransactionScopeRequired = true, TransactionAutoComplete = true)]
    In my data access layer, all the transactional methods are set up as follows:
    using (IDbConnection conn = DbTools.GetConnection(_configStr, _connStr))
    using (IDbCommand cmd = DbTools.GetCommand(conn, "SET XACT_ABORT ON"))
    cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
    using (IDbCommand cmd = DbTools.GetCommand(conn, sql))
    ... Perform actual database work ...
    Services that are transactional call transactional DAL code. The idea was to keep the stuff that needs to be transactional (a few cases) separate from the stuff that doesn't need to be transactional (~95% of the cases).
    There ought not be cases where transactional and non-transactional WCF methods are called from within a transaction (though I haven't verified this and this may be the cause of my problems. I'm not sure, which is part of why I'm asking here.)
    As I mentioned before, in most cases, this all works fine.
    Periodically, and I cannot identify what initiates it, I start getting errors. And once they start, pretty much everything starts failing for a while. Eventually things start working again. Not sure why... This is all in a test environment with a single user.
    Sometimes the error is:
    Unable to start a nested transaction for OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLSERVERNAME". A nested transaction was required because the XACT_ABORT option was set to OFF.
    This message, I'm guessing is happening when I have non-transactional stuff within transactions, as I'm not setting XACT_ABORT in the non-transactional code (that's totally doable, if that will fix my issue).
    Most often, however, the error is this:
    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "ORACLSERVERNAME" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
    Now, originally we only had transactions on SQL Server tables and that all worked fine. It wasn't until we added transaction support for some of the Oracle tables that things started failing. I know the Oracle transactions work. And as I said, most of the time, everything is just hunky dorey and then sometimes it starts failing and keeps failing for a while until it decides to stop failing and then it all works again.
    I noticed that our transactions didn't seem to have a DistributedIdentifier set, so I added the EnsureDistributed() method from this blog post: http://www.make-awesome.com/2010/04/forcibly-creating-a-distributed-net-transaction/
    Instead of a hardcoded Guid (which seemed to cause a lot of problems), I have it generating a new Guid for each transaction and that seems to work, but it has not fixed my problem. I'm wondering if the lack of a DistribuedIdentifier is indicative of some other underlying problem. I've never dealt with an environment quite like this before, so I'm not sure what is "normal".
    I've also noticed that the DistributedIdentifier doesn't get passed to WCF. From the client, I have a DistributedIdentifier and a LocalIdentifier in Transaction.Current.TransactionInformation. In the WCF server, however there is only a LocalIdentifier set and it is a different Guid from the client side (which makes sense, but I would have expected the DistributedIdentifier to go across).
    So I changed the wait the code above works and instead, on the WCF side, I call a method that calls Transaction.Current.EnlistDurable() with the DummyEnlistmentNotification class from the link above (though with a unique Guid for each transaction instead of the hardcoded guid in the link). I now havea  DistributedIdentifier on the server-side, but it still doesn't fix the problem.
    It appears that when I'm in the midst of transactions failing, even after I shut down IIS, I'm unable to get the DTC service to shutdown and restart. If I go into Component Services and change the security settings, for example, and hit Apply or OK, after a bit of a wait I get a dialgo that says, "Failed ot restart the MS DTC serivce. Please examine the eventlog for further details."
    In the eventlog I get a series of events:
    1 (from MSDTC): "The MS DTC service is stopping"
    2 (From MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS): "The connection has been lost with Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC). Recovery of any in-doubt distributed transactions

  • Setting up local web test server

    Hi All,
    Apologies if this should go in installation and setup but here goes.
    Running 10.3.9.
    Httpd running
    MySQL server running
    PHP enabled
    I'm trying to set up a local testing server on my G4 powerbook so I can do my mods and just occasionally ftp up the code, say, once a week.
    I've started personal web sharing and can access my local site's index page ok (i.e. http://mymachine.local/~me/website/ ). That's all fine.
    But I've installed the oscommerce app under my web directory and unless I have a connection toi the net then it just doesn't want to know.
    So calling up " http://mymachine/local/~me/website/catalog/index " gives me a nothing if I don't have an internet connection.
    I think I have set everything up as I should to have a local testing server for web apps :- Personal web sharing enabled, MySQL sorted, PHP sorted.
    Does anyone know what I might need to do further or perhaps point me in the right direction?
    Much appreciated.

    Try using http://localhost/local/~me/website/catalog/index . It may be that your original link doesn't work because your machine is trying to look up the IP-address of "mymachine" using DNS, and that won't work if you're off-line; "localhost" is a synonym for "127.0.0.1", which is the "loopback address" -- it always means your own machine. No DNS lookup required, no real network interface required, so it should work whether you're on-line or not.

  • Very slow Export to Media Encoder and Media Encoder connecting to dynamic link server

    My flow is this: Open After Effects CC, import an image sequence, go to File > Export > Add to Adobe Media Encoder Queue...
    Every other time i do this it will take 2-3 mins before Media Encoder even shows the splash screen, then it'll take another 1-2 mins to open.
    Next, I'll select my custom preset over on the right side of the window, then hit the Play button to begin encoding.  Sometimes nothing will happen at all, sometimes I'll see the Orange stripped bar on the lower left and the message Media Encoder connecting to dynamic link server and that'll last 5+ minutes and I end task to get out of AE and ME. Sometimes, ME will begin encoding right away and zip through the small animation sequence quickly without issue.
    I have WIndows 7 Pro, I'm on a work network with access to the internet  and AE has been updated 24 days ago.  I have a subscription and I'm signed on.  However, sometimes I do not have the Creative-Cloud icon in my systray.
    Thanks,

    Thanks.  I have 16GB Ram, 64bit Win7,  Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3970X @ 3.50GHz 3.50GHz.  AE is set to have maximum disk cache of 46GB. RAM reserved for other applications: 5GB RAM available for AE, PR, Pl, (some triangular icon [edit] which is ME ), Ps: 10GB. nothing else checked on that screen.
    Typically just a mail client, 1 or 2 sessions of Firefox, 1 or 2 network folders open when i launch AE.
    The last couple of times specifically, i had a 450 frame animation sequence at native 720p.  then i added a curves layer on top of it in AE, then added two ~600x300px  logos, one in each lower corner, then added a new solid layer which i used as a vignette. Finally over that i added a 720p still image which i held for another 15 seconds beyond the animation.
    For the above, i ended-task, rebooted, brought it up again and it lauched ME quickly, then i got the stripped bar and connecting message until i ended task on that, then the 3rd time was the charm - everything opened quickly and it began to encode quickly.
    The next three uses late afternoon yesterday were 150 frame animations at 480x270 and they all seemed to work fine.  I created the sequence in 3ds max, then closed and went into AE.  Then I'd close AE render another sequence, back into AE etc...
