Accessing an Oracle RDB database thru OBIEE

We are trying to access our database warehouse located on a VMS Oracle RDB server to the physical layer in the OBIEE Administrator.
Doesn't seem like there are any native drivers
and when we set up the Oracle ODBC RDB driver 3.2
and use this ODBC connection in our connection pool and connect to the database
and import tables
We can view all tables in the warehouse but we can't see any columns in tables that have an underscore in their name. When we import these underscore tables, we still can't see the column metadata.
Is there any way around this? Thanks Cheryl

Export table access to oracle with Database ODBC()

Hi,
I export a table, access 2003, ent_tab whit 'DataBase ODBC()' to oracle.
I open Oracle SQL Developer and i can show table ent_tab, but i go worksheet and execute:
select * from ent_tab
and display error: ORA-00942...
Why??!!
Regards
Jomar

Because ODBC created the table with "" which allowed lower case table name, but Oracle uses upper case table name by default. Suggest you recreate the table with upper-case name to avoid having to use "" in select statements.

MS Access to oracle 10g Migration thru command line/script?

Hi,
Is there a command line for executing OWMB?..One of the customers currently using multiple databases of Access DB are interested in migrating to Oracle but they want the migration process to be very simple...For ex: On the click of a button or if there is something like silent mode migration through some command..
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Veena

Hi Veena,
There's no command line or silent mode migration facility to run the workbench.
However, the workbench does that have capability of migrating multiple MDB files in the one operation. Using the Exporter Tool for MS Access, which is shipped as part of the OMWB install, the user can select multiple MDB files to export. For each exported MDB file, an associated XML file is generated by the Exporter tool, which contains the database schema information for the MS Access database. The user can then load up all of these XML files, via a wizard, into the workbench, and carry out their migration. The ability to export & migrate multiple database in the one operation should greatly reduce the customer's migration time.
I hope this helps.
Regards,
Hilary

Facing issue in Connecting to Oracle 10g database in OBIEE+

Hi All
I have done the BASIC installation of OBIEE+ on Windows [local system].
I have tested for all the services running and they are running fine.
As Oracle 10g is our databse i need to connect to the databse.
Please guide me with step by step process on how to establish the connection.
I went through the tutorail but still failed to establish the connection.
Thanks in advance,

As John says you need some sort of Oracle client to connect to the database.
I use instant client, with ODBC options, and SQLPlus (to test connectivity)
Available here

You will also need to copy your tnsnames.ora into the directory you install in, and set the TNS_ADMIN environment variable to point to it.

JDBC API ( JSR 169 ) Implementation for accessing oracle lite database

We are developing an application using IBM J9 (CDC and Foundation Profile) on Pocket PC 2003 environment with SWT as the front end development. We are using Oracle Lite 9i as the Client database.
We have sucessfully installed Oracle Lite and was able to create tables in the database.. however we could not find the JDBC API (java.sql and javax.sql packages which is JSR 169 JDBC 2.0/3.0) inorder to load the JDBC driver(OLITE40.jar) and access the oracle Lite Database on Pocket PC.
IBM J9 Micro Environement does not have this support.
I am wondering if Oracle provides this implementation.
If not is there a get around.
the client database is crucial to the application and i would really appreciate an answer to our problem.

Jsp to rdb database

Hey!
Guys, I am new to this forum. It looked greatly helpful so I thought maybe any one of you might have some information on this.
I am developing an application to connect a jsp page to a RDB database which is running on OPENVMS VAX (not ALPHA) platform. It seems like there are JDBC drivers to connect to RDB for ALPHA platform.
I have been really unsuccessful to find a way to connect the jsp page to the oracle RDB database running on VAX.
Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated!!

Oracle 10g database control

hi,
Working on oracle 10g is just like a mirage for me. I have installed and uninstalled it many times on my new laptop, but not been able to work on it, because of many oracle problems. my OS is windows xp prof. sp2. i have cracked my brain on accessing to oracle 10g database control webpage, but have not succeeded yet. everytime i am successful in installing oracle 10g on my machine but everytime i fail to connect to em-database control and got the error 'page can not be displayed'.
my laptop uses dhcp and it uses a wireless LAN. i install and configure loopback adapter before installing 10g. i have tried with 192.168.x.y as the ip address of the loop back adapter and have put many numbers in place of x, y where 0<x<254 and 0<y<254 . Infact i have tried with 192.168.15.16
192.168.18.12
192.168.78.12
192.168.84.123
192.168.67.102
192.168.20.178
and many more and in all the previous cases i configured subnet mask to be
255.255.255.0. Everytime database installation is successful but not able to connect to oem db control webpage.
One more error i get everytime is that whenever i try to connect to database through sql window , sometimes i connect and sometimes i dont.i get the error ORA-12357 TNS Connection Closed.
i provide username: scott
password : tiger .
host string: orcl
( orcl is the database name and also the name of the sid).
But i always am able to connect to the database through command line c:\ prompt and everything works fine.
Please provide me some solutions for the above problems...

its very very urgent, please reply

JDBC access to Oracle Lite from midlet on j9 pocket pc

Hi all,
Is it possible to access an Oracle Lite database from a MIDLet applicatie
running on a POCKET with the J9 virtual machine? I want to use MIDP and not the Personal Profile to be able to use the Oracle webservice proxy with the J2ME client SDK.
I think that I only have to include the appropriate libraries (classes12.jar or olite40.jar) in my project..Am I right?
Thanks in advance,

DATA IMPORT from MS.ACCESS TO ORACLE DATABASE

I have an MS ACCESS MDB file , I to import all the Tables and Data into ORACLE DATABASE through FORMS.Because this file is on Client side, and maintain on daily basis ,so it is very hard to import manually daily through traditional ODBC method,for that our one team member busy all day with that issue.
Is it possible in our forms to import data from MS.ACCESS to ORACLE. I tried HOST command but it doesn't work.
Data structure and Table Name are same both is MS Access and Oracle.
We are Oracle 8i and Developer 6i

Like i said in my previous post, the same steps that you used to do manually, you need to do it through forms, it's not that straight forward, you need to do lots of coding.
connect form to MS Access db read the data, and insert them into oracle tables.
Search the forum, there are solutions previously posted, and keep checking the online help .

Can Forms Builder access non-Oracle Database?

Does any one know whether Pracle Forms can access othe non-Oracle database via ODBC or JDBC to MS Access or MySQL?

Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB?

Can you access non-Oracle database with HTML DB? If not, will this be possible in the future?
I realize HTML DB is not an open-source product. However, it is necessary sometimes to get non-Oracle database info. JDeveloper supports this. It does not appear to me that HTML DB does. This is a major drawback to it being a product for more potential applications that rely on other database technology such as MySQL, etc.
If it is possible, is this brain surgery to do it. HTML DB offers fast simplified development and it would be good if it was built in. Does anyone know of an example of accessing non-Oracle database that is available?

Getting Oracle RDB 7 database into 10g howto

Hello,
We have an old database in Oracle RDB 7 on an older OpenVMS system that we would like to somehow import into a new Oracle 10g database running under Unix. I'm familiar with OpenVMS and Unix, Oracle 8i and later, but don't have much of a clue about Oracle RDB, which seems a complete different product.
So far I found out that export and import in Oracle RDB are completely different from Oracle 10g in terms of compatibility and unction. Perhaps there is some way to use RMU/Extract under RDB? Can the complete database be saved in e.g. text delimited or other suitable formats? Whatever I do however must not change anything on the original RDB database.
Thanks in advance for any advice and help!
Best regards,
Markus Waldorf

(I have never worked on RDB but) I just carried out a brief search on internet regarding Oracle RDB 7 and it seems it can be exported using ODBC (however, the options are limited).
I would advise you to get in touch with Oracle support or Oracle RDB provider. May be they can help you out with this.
