Convert Oracle "connect by level 10" into MS SQL server 2005

I want to convert oracle "SELECT LEVEL R FROM CONNECT BY LEVEL <=10" my bottom requirement is get 1 to 10 as a dynamic table inside a query.
Ex: Select id, name, R from names N, (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) R WHERE id < 1000
If any one know something regarding this please reply me.
Thx,
Buddhika

Hi Buddhika Jayawardhane ,
Have you sold your problem? I have the same issue to convert from Oracle into SQL Server:
SELECT all_steps.to_step_id step_id, rownum step_order
FROM (
SElECT 0 from_step_id, steps.step_id to_step_id
FROM steps
WHERE steps.is_root = 1
UNION
SElECT step_transitions.from_step_id, step_transitions.to_step_id
FROM step_transitions
) all_steps
CONNECT BY all_steps.from_step_id = PRIOR all_steps.to_step_id
START WITH all_steps.from_step_id = 0
Please help me find information how to make it!
Thanks in advance,
cores

INSERTING DATA INTO A SQL SERVER 2005 TABLE, WHICH HAS A IDENTITY COLUMN

Hi All,
I have to insert the data into a SQL SERVER 2005 Database table.
I am able to insert the data into a normal SQL Server table.
When I am trying to insert the data into a SQL Server table, which has a identity column (i.e. auto increment column in Oracle) I am getting error saying that can't insert value explicitly when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.
Had anybody tried this??
There are some SRs on this issue, Oracle agreed that it is a bug. I am wondering if there is any workaround from any one of you (refer Insert in MS-SQL database table with IDENTITY COLUMN
Thanks
V Kumar

Even I had raised a SR on this in October 2008. But didn't get any solution for a long time, finally I had removed the identity column from the table. I can't to that now :).
I am using 10.1.3.3.0 and MS SQL SERVER 2005, They said it is working for MS SQL SERVER TABLE, if the identity column is not a primary key and asked me to refer to note 744735.1.
I had followed that note, but still it is not working for me.
But my requirement is it should work for a MS SQL SERVER 2005 table, which has identity column as primary key.
Thanks

Oracle ODBC driver not visible in MS SQL server 2005

Hi all
I am trying to export a Ms SQL Server table to Oracle and I do not see the Oracle Driver or any of my local drivers.
Why?

Pratik, the SQL does not seem right. BTW you can only retreive data via Deski Free hand SQL. Also try to use OLE DB connection.

Hi,
Following solution might help you to resolve the issue.
Solution1:
Issue happens because universe connection to the Database is not responding and the Data Source Name is not configured to write SQL Server 2005 database.
Resolution
Created new DSN connection under SYSTEM DSN to SQL Server 2005 Database.
Import the universe from the designer.
Go to File->Parameters.
Edit Connection.
On the Database Middleware Page expand SQl Server 2005->Select SQL Server 2005 driver.
Change the DSN to new DSN connection
Test the connection.
Save the Universe and Export it to the repository.
Solution2:
I am taking Oracle as an example over here.
This can be caused when the SQLNET.ora is located in a remote location using mapped drives.
Resolution
To resolve,
check the registry [HKLM\SOFTWARE\ORACLE] you should see a folder called HOME0
look for any paths that contain a mapped drive partition
Change the mapped drive letter to a UNC path (
server\folder)
Open a command prompt and do a tnsping using the tnsname and verify the location of the SQLNET.ora or TNSNAMES.ora
If the path is not updated to the new path
Reboot the server

PeopleTools 8.49 PeopleSoft Database Cannot Connect with MS SQL Server 2005

Folks,
Hello. I am working on PeopleSoft PIA. My system is Windows Server 2003, MS SQL Server Express 2005 Standard, PeopleTools 8.49. I am setting up PeopleSoft Database \PsMpDbInstall\setup.exe and got the errors as follows:
Error: Setup fails to connect to SQL Server. The default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connection.
Then I type in "sqlcmd" in Command Prompt and got the same error as follows:
Name Pipe Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server. MS SQL Native Client: the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connection.
In order to fix SQL Server 2005 remote connection problem, I have done the 3 steps as follows:
Step 1: In SQL Server Surface Area Connection, enable local and remote connection, TCP/IP and Name Pipes, SQL Server browser Startup type "automatic" and status "running".
Step 2: Create exception for SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server browser Service in Windows Firewall.
Step 3: Add the default SQL Server Port 1433 into Windows Firewall.
But the above 3 steps cannot resolve SQL Server Express 2005 remote connection problem. Can any folks help to resolve this problem ?
Thanks.

Folks,
Management Studio can connect with SQL Server 2005 successfully.
I have turned off Windows Server 2003 firewall completely. But "sqlcmd" in Command Prompt still connect with SQL Server 2005 because its remote connection is not allowed.
Is the "not allow remote connection" problem caused by Windows Firewall or SQL Server 2005 itself ?
Thanks.

Copy table from Ms SQL Server 2005 to Oracle with SSIS package

Hi all
I am witting an SSIS package to copy 2 tables from Ms SQL Server 2005 to an Oracle 10g database.
Problem: I can only see the Microsoft OLDB Provider for Oracle and it is too slow. How can I use the Oracle ODBC in aMs SQL Server 2005 or building a .net SSIS package.
thanks

Yes I am able to see the driver on the Data Source (ODBC), I also created a connection to the Oracle database. The problem in Ms SQL Server 2005 is that the ODBC connection I created is not listed. None of the lo local connections are listed, only Microsoft OLEDB connections

Transfer data from Oracle 7 to SQL server 2005

Hello guys,
I am new in Oracle and I need some help from you:
I have an Oracle database 7 and I need to transfer some tables into MS SQL Server 2005.
Is there any ORACLE utility (compatible with ver 7) to help me in this task?
If not, what is the way to trasfer data from a Oracle database 7 to SQL Server 2005?
Thank in advance

SQL Server can access Oracle database via the Linked Database feature however I do not know if you could find a Oracle 7 database compatiable Oracle client to use with a SQL Server 2005 database. i would not even try to configure this.
What I suggest is you use SQLPlus to spool out delimited data into flat files, copy/FTP etc ... those flat files to your SQL Server box, and use BCP to load the data into SQL Server.
There have been numberous posts of generating delimited flat files from Oracle data posted here on the forum but here is one method that will work on version 7:
How do I export a database table to a flat file ?

Inserting date from a jsp into sql server 2005 database

Dear Friends.,
i have a jsp page, in that there is a form with various user input fields. in that one field is date field. i tried to insert the date field into the sql server 2005 database. but it is not getting inserted into the database.
when i tried by inserting one field to database, it is getting inserted. for all the fields its works fine, except the date field.
i need hint or code to insert the date get from the jsp page to database.
i am using a servlet to do all database related things. i.e making connections, executing prepared statement queries
thanks
sekar.

The variable needs to be outside of the string to be recognized as a variable. You need to remove the variable from the string, then concatinate it onto the string (and concatinate any remaining string parts - the closing paren). For example:
stmt.executeUpdate("INSERT INTO table VALUES ('test', " + companyID + ")");
Hope that's clear enough and helps. Good luck on your thesis!

SQL Server 2005 64 bit and Oracle 9

Hi,
I have a situation which involves SQL Server 2005 64 bit and Oracle 9 32 bit,
I have a requirement that involves creating Stored Procedures from Oracle 9 which will call tables from SQL Server 2005 64 bit, with operations involving 'Select' 'Insert' 'Update' and 'Delete'.
it works fins, except when attempting to search for an SQL Server 'varchar' value, wher no mapping is done
though the Oracle sees the field as 'varchar2'
can anyone please advice on this
thanks
Basel

I think you're somehow not getting a resuklt because you're query doesn't return any data.
Why the fiealdA=pat=parameterA construct? Wouldn't it just work if you changed it to fieldA=parameterA?
Also, can you not just define parameterA as a varchar to make them match?
What if you do "select * from (<your query without where>) a where a.fieldA = :parameterA"
While not efficient, it would make the filtering occur in Oracle and maybe that will let you see the problem in native Oracle land and then reuse the solution in your orginal query. If that doesn't work, drop the where clause and inspect the data closly and hardcode a simple where without using PL*SQL or bind variables.

DB Connect from BW on Oracle to MS SQL Server 2005

Hello,
I am having issues replicating Meta-Data from SQL server databases via DBCONNECT to SAP BW.
For instance we have the CCM DB and the Siebel DB. We can transfer meta-data from CCM with no problem (SQL Server 2000) but we cannot transfer meta-data from Siebel (SQL Server2005).
Our SAP BW is system is on an Oracle database.
CCM is on OS Win 2003. SQL 2000 SP4.
Siebel is on Win 2003 Server Enterprise 5.2 and SQL Server 2005 SP2.
I already have the dbsl for SQL server installed in the BW system. When I do a Connection Check of the source systems in RSA1, it says "Source system connection OK".
Any help will be highly appreciated.
Thanks,
Ajay

Hi,
I don't think the 32 vs. 64 bit is the issue. Have you tried checking OSS note: 512739. It describes the prerequisites for accessing MS SQLServer via DB Connect. Normally problems occurs due to unsupported data types being used in SQLServer - in such cases you have to create views in the source system and then use these views instead of the actual database tables. In the view you can perform the necessary data type conversion.

After changing the listener.ora file stop and start the listener.

If this does not help enable strace and check out from which location libodbc.so is being loaded.
Please be also aware HSODBC has been desupported 15th of March. As you start a new project you should proceed with the follow up product DG4ODBC.
