  • Certification Info for 10g/11g Discoverer - Metalink ID 233047.1

    All,
    I referenced the metalink ID ID 233047.1, for certification Information regarding 10g and 11g Discoverer. Can someone please confirm if the following is true? The information in this link is really confusing and I greatly appreciate your help in this regard.
    Discoverer Admin and Desktop 10g --> No, will not work on Windows 7 and IE9.
    Discoverer Plus and Viewer 10g --> Yes, for Windows 7, and No for IE9. Will work with Windows 7 and IE8. It does NOT talk about IE9. (Metalink ID: [ID 233047.1]). This is what concerns me.
    ******Will Discoverer Plus and Viewer 10g work with IE9?**********
    Discoverer Admin and Desktop 11g --> Yes, will work with Windows 7 and IE9
    Discoverer Plus and Viewer 11g --> Yes, will work with Windows 7 and IE9
    Discoverer Admin and Desktop 11g ---> **** Will this work with Windows XP? *****
    Discoverer Plus and Viewer 11g --> ****** Will this work with IE8? *******
    Thanks!

    Danny,
    We are planing to do 11g Discoverer upgrade from 10.1.2 with 11i apps on Unix,I believe it is only certified on Linux for Oracle Apps 11i.

  • Oracle 10g OLAP to 11g OLAP upgrade ?

    We currently are planning on a upgrade from 10g OLAP => 11g OLAP. We currently have 12 AWM's in 10g OLAP which we need to move over with associated DML programs and additional SQL reporting views.
    Questions:
    1. Is there any documentation available on necessary steps for 10g OLAP => 11g OLAP upgrade?
    2. What would happen to existing AWM's prepared in 10g, would they be migrated to 11g transparently or have to be re-created?
    3. Is there any specific documentation related to changes in way cube builds are done programatically?
    4. Any changes in the way limit maps work in 11g?
    Please advise.
    Thanks,
    Sudip

    Migrating a 10g cube to 11g depends on whether you are talking about 11gR1 or 11gR2. 10g cubes continue to operate in the "10g way" even after a database upgrade. They will not become "11g cubes" until they are rebuilt after the database upgrade. In 11gR2, there is a supported way to migrate 10g cubes to 11g cubes, both with AWM and with PL/SQL. Sorry to say... this functionality doesn't exist in 11gR1: you'll have to rebuild your cubes from the ground up.
    The SQL relational views built using the AWM plugin in 10g are no longer applicable in 11g. That's because OLAP cubes in 11g are registered in the oracle data dictionary (just like other Oracle objects), and the SQL relational views are managed in the database and a recognized part of the product. The SQL relational views are quite different in 11g, so you will likely have to rewrite queries against them.
    LIMIT map syntax is the same, but performance is much better.

  • Upgrading queries from 3.5 to Bi 7.0

    Hi Gurus
    If we are involved in a project where they are upgrading queries from 3.5 to 7.0 version what kind issues may occur.  Please try to help me out .........
    Naga

    Hi Ajax
    <i>With NW04S GUI
    -Opening Existing 3.x queries in BI 7.0 query designer errors out

    <i><b>Can you tell me how did you solve these isues WITH NW04S GUI</b></i>
    Is it WITH 7.0 FRONT END or 3.5 Front end?
    <b>With 3.5 Front end</b>
    <i>- 2 Structures in a query generates dump

    I understand when variants are missing you have ran a program and hence that problem got fixed. Can you tell me where to run this program?
    Same way can you tell me how to resolve other issues?
    You made my life easier by sending some real time scenarios. I was unable to defend my resume. This really helps if you tell me how to solve some issues. Thank you very much

  • Discoverer 11g generates weird queries with fields of date dastatype

    Hi,
    We recently installed Discoverer 11g and found out that it always adds "+0" expression to all fields of date datatype in SQL in reports. For example:
    SELECT ( O100186.END_DATE+( ( 0 ) ) ), O100186.INSTITUTIONID, O100186.INSTITUTIONNAME
    FROM INSTITUTION_MV O100186
    WHERE ( ( O100186.END_DATE+( ( 0 ) ) ) >= SYSDATE-10 );It causes problems with outer join queries and also prevents optimizer from using indexes on date fields.
    Is there a way to remove these "+0" expressions from queries?
    Thanks in advance.

  • Database migrated from Oracle 10g to 11g Discoverer report performance issu

    Hi All,
    We are now getting issue in Discoverer Report performance as the report is keep on running when database got upgrade from 10g to 11g.
    In database 10g the report is working fine but the same report is not working fine in 11g.
    The query i have changed as I have passed the date format TO_CHAR("DD-MON-YYYY" and removed the NVL & TRUNC function from the existing query.
    The report is now working fine in Database 11g backhand but when I am using the same query in Discoverer it is not working and report is keep on running.
    Please advise.
    Regards,

    Pl post exact OS, database and Discoverer versions. After the upgrade, have statistics been updated ? Have you traced the Discoverer query to determine where the performance issue is ?

  • Discoverer upgrade, when moving from Oracle AS 9i to weblogic 10.3.5

    Hi,
    We have an Oracle AS 9i application server with Forms, reports and discoverer (windos 2003 32 bit).
    We are planning to migrate your application server to new hardware (64 bit windows 2008) and sofware (Weblogic 10.3.5, Forms, Reports, Discoverer 11.1.1.4).
    I know that we need to recompile all your forms and reports because 32 bit-->64 bit and 9i --> 11g,
    but for me is not clear how to migrate oracle discoverer repository.
    It will be done automatically, when we install weblogic server, or we need to do it manually?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    If you are on Discoverer 9i then you will need to upgrade the EUL after you have installed Discoverer 11. To do this, install Discoverer Administrator 11i on your desktop and connect to the EUL. You will then be prompted asking whether you want to do the upgrade.

  • 11.5.10.2 12.1.1 and 10g 11g database upgrade at same time

    I have just started an 11.5.10.2 > 12.1.1 upgrade and have created a project in MWIZ 2.15 for it.
    I would also like to upgrade the 10.2.0.2 database to 11.1.0.7 as part of the same upgrade and create an MWIZ project for that.
    I have a couple of questions that the MWIZ FAQ does not address:
    1. At what point in the 11.5.10.2 > 12.1.1 upgrade should I do the database upgrade?
    MWIZ has two points when it can be done based on apps/database versions. One is at the end of the 'Prep for Upgrade' category and the other is during the 'Upg to Rel 12.1.1' category. The MWIZ step notes cover upgrading to the latest 10g or 11g patch version but not upgrading from 10g to 11g so I am unsure which category to go for.
    2. When I create the database upgrade project which 'Destination Version' should I choose?
    The two options are 'RDBMS 11.1 and E-Business Suite 11.5' and 'RDBMS 11.1 and E-Business Suite 12'.
    As I haven't upgraded to R12 yet and am still at the pre-upgrade stage should I pick 11.5? Or should I go with R12 because I am upgrading Apps and the database at the same time?
    Any help and advice gratefully received.
    Thanks

    Answer to above question not required now as:
    Having read the 24th December update of note 761570.1 - 'Database Preparation Guidelines for an Oracle E-Business Suite Release 12.1.1 Upgrade' I have decided to upgrade the database to 11.2.0.x by following the Path C option.
    Unfortunately as the 11.2.0.x upgrade isn't covered by MWIZ yet I will have to follow the manual steps.

  • Can't Create Saved Connection in 11g (Discoverer Plus).

    We're getting ready to go live with a new installation of Discoverer Weblogic 11g, but we have run into a problem. We are getting errors when we have any user try to create a saved login connection from their login screen. We hit "Create Connection" and enter all the required login info (as we always did with our 10g version), but when we hit 'Apply' or 'Apply and Connect' we get the following errors.......
    A connection error.
    - Oracle BI Discoverer Viewer cannot save the connection. Check for other errors.
    - ORA-04063: package body "PROD_DISCOVERER_PS.WWSSO_API_PRIVATE" has errors ORA-06508: PL/SQL: could not find program unit being called: "PROD_DISCOVERER_PS.WWSSO_API_PRIVATE" ORA-06512: at line 1
    Users can login just fine when they enter all their info on the login screen, this is only happening when we try to create the saved connection. Is anyone else running into this on 11g? Is there a setting we are missing or something? Maybe something in the pref.txt file? Any help would be appreciated, especially since we are being asked to go live soon. Thanks!
    Here is our system setup:
    Oracle BI Discoverer 11g (11.1.1.4.0)
    Oracle Business Intelligence Discoverer Plus 11g (11.1.1.4.0)
    Discoverer Model - 11.1.1.4.0
    Discoverer Server - 11.1.1.4.0
    End User Layer - 5.1.1.0.0.0
    End User Layer Library - 11.1.1.4.0
    Oracle Database 11g Release 11.2.0.1.0 - 64bit Production
    Java Virtual Machine:     Sun Microsystems Inc. 1.6.0_29
    JVM Memory Available:     9046KB out of 37372KB

    Using protocol: RMI protocol over JRMP transport

    Additional info:
    Based on the error messages, we can see something is wrong with the package being called. We had a long running help ticket with Oracle opened, but in our opinion, it was not really resolved. We provided the following info after a request from Oracle....
    The package does exist. The package is valid but the package body is invalid due to missing dependant objects
    It is owned by PROD_DISCOVERER_PS.
    The database version is 11.2.0.1.0 (64 bit)
    SQL> select OWNER, OBJECT_TYPE

    +3 where object_name = 'WWSSO_API_PRIVATE';+
    OWNER OBJECT_TYPE

    PROD_DISCOVERER_PS PACKAGE BODY
    We have tried to recomplie the package, still invalid.
    After some further questions we were asked to provide info on the app_registry.......We got an error when trying that.......
    The app_registry object does not exist ...
    SQL> connect sys as sysdba
    Enter password:
    Connected.
    SQL> select comp_id,version,status from app_registry;
    ERROR at line 1:
    ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
    In the end (after a lot of back and forth), Oracle could not reproduce our problem on their test system. Because their test system uses Enterprise Edition and we installed Standard Edition, their solution was that the issue is caused because we are using Standard Oracle DB and we should be using Enterprise Edition. Creating a saved connection doesn't sound at all like something that would be affected by Standard or Enterprise edition. That's not an easy "solution" for us right now, and we can use a real fix. That's like taking your car into the shop because your blinkers don't work on your 2010 model car and the dealer's solution is "Oh, your 2010 car blinkers don't work? We have a 2011 model and they work just fine. You'll need to buy a 2011 car so the turn signals function."

  • Oracle 10g RAC to 11g RAC Upgrade on Solaris

    Hi,
    We are planning to do a migration of a 4 Node Oracle 10g RAC on Solaris 9 to 11g with Solaris 10. We'd like know what would be the best path to take. We cannot afford any downtime!
    Options: Are these feasible? Which option is best? Any documents links?
    a) Do a rolling upgrade of Oracle from 10g to 11g. Then take down individual nodes and upgrade the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 and bring them up back into the cluster. Is there any known issues taking this path? Is a rolling upgrade like this possible?
    b) Do an upgrade of the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 on each node and then bring them back up? Is this practical? Does Oracle allow different versions of OS running on different nodes?
    c) Use Dataguard with 2 different RAC environments (2 nodes each). How would this work? Is it the only possible way? Any steps please?
    Thanks

    a) Do a rolling upgrade of Oracle from 10g to 11g. Then take down individual nodes and upgrade the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 and bring them up back into the cluster. Is there any known issues taking this path? Is a rolling upgrade like this possible?Hi,
    first of all i would not change several components (OS, database version) at a time. My recommendation is to make small steps and start with the operating system first. Seconds recommendation is to test and test everything in your dev or test environment prior doing the upgrades in the productive environment. Trust me: You will face problems :-) So you better try it beforehand!
    b) Do an upgrade of the Solaris OS from 9 to 10 on each node and then bring them back up? Is this practical? Does Oracle allow different versions of OS running on different nodes?As far i know you can run different operating system versions on different nodes if they are supported (Solaris 9 and 10 are).

  • OBIEE 11G Implemented - Upgrading Oracle EBS 11g to R12

    We have OBIEE 11G implemented and are currently sourcing the data from Oracle EBS 11g.  We are upgrading our source database to R12 and need to know the impact on our Informatica mappings.  Can anyone point me to some documentation, or have leave some helpful hints on how to proceed with this project.  Thanks.

    Hello,
    I assume you are using BI APPS, there shouldn't be any impact on informatica mappings. Informatica comes with prebuit adapters for EBS 12 version, you need to use ORAR12 adapter.

Maybe you are looking for
