Downgrade to 9i from 10g

Is there a step-by-step list to downgrade Oracle 10g R2 to 9i R2?
What should I do if I want to downgrade a DB from 10gr2 to 9iR2 ?
Thanks for any info.

Please, check the upgrade guide, especially the chapter Downgrading a Database Back to the Previous Oracle Database Release<br>

Downgrade from 10g to 8i

HI Gentlemen,
Could you tell me if it is possible that I migrate my Forms application from 10g BACK to 8i? All Webutil-references will be commented out, and deployment would not use any AS. However, I would like to preserve Web appearance and printing logic (FILE, PRINTER, CACHE/PREVIEW).
I know it is the opposite direction but many customers have older Windows versions where 10gDB does not apply.
Thank you very much, kind regards from
Miklos HERBOLY

Are you talking about migrating back your forms? You can't take and FMB file from 10g and "back generate" in 6i for example (there is no 8i forms).

Upgradation from 10g R2 Enterprise Edition to 11g R2 Standard Edition

Hi All,
I am going through a challange, and have some doubts on it, please have a look on it.
My DB Details are as follows.
Queried from TOAD:
Production Server Details:
SELECT * FROM V$VERSION
BANNER
Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Prod
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.4.0 Production
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.4.0 - Production
Development Server Details:
SELECT * FROM V$VERSION
BANNER
Oracle Database 10g Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
PL/SQL Release 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
CORE 10.2.0.1.0 Production
TNS for 32-bit Windows: Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
NLSRTL Version 10.2.0.1.0 - Production
Production server is in Enterprise Edition and Development is in Standard edition. Now my organization expecting to upgrade Oracle to next Database Version i.e., 11g R2 Standard Edition in both Production & Development, cause they are using only a single application in Oracle DB.
For production, current DB is Enterprise Edition & Upgrading version is of Standard Edition. What are the consequences am I going to face while upgrading the version and edition from 10g R2 EE to 11g R2 SE.
What are the patches I need to apply for it, or need I to do new Installation and dump data using Import & Export at user level. My DB Data is mostly around 2 - 3Gigs.
Kindly let me know which is easy way and which is standard practice advised by Oracle.
Thanks in Advance.
Mohd Sirajoddin

Enterprise edition has lot of features than standard edition and hence we can not migrate from enterprise edition to standard edition,.
The only possibility is Export/Import or Expdp/Impdp
It is also discussed at

Application has problems when migrated from 10g to 11g

Hi there,
I am hoping someone can shed some light on a problem I have in moving an application from Oracle 10g to Oracle 11g. The app works fine on 10g (uses Apache webserver with PL/SQL module, and APEX 3.1.2.00.2), but on 11g using the embedded web server and APEX 3.2.0.00.27, it doesnt. Most of the app works fine, but there are a couple of pages that provide the ability to add child rows to a parent/child relationship, where the parameter passing mechanism from one page to the next appears to suffer from some sort of corruption. I have traced this using the "session" and "debug" buttons on the developer interface, which show that the values of the parameters get changed inexplicably, when branching from one page to the next - even when the page is actually branching to itself.
I am using the "Set these items, "With these values" fields in the branch, and have verified that the correct values are being associated with the correct items in the application builder. But while this does work correctly under 10g, with 11g, the wrong values end up being passed. Just prior to the branch the set of parameters have the correct values, but immediately after the branch, one of the values is NULL, another has the value of a different item, and a third has a totally random value - I have no idea were it comes from!
I migrated the application from 10g to 11g using the APEX application developer's Export/Import options. There have been no other changes. Should this have worked? If so, any ideas what might have gone wrong?
Thanks,
Sid.

Well, I managed to solve this, but not in a way that makes much sense.
In desperation (I had tried almost everything else!) I changed the value of "Cached" in the page settings from "No" to "Yes", and ran the app, but the page didnt render correctly (in either Firefox or IE7) - in fact all that displayed was the developers toolbar at the bottom of the page. I changed the value of "Cached" back to "Y", ran the app again, and hey presto - everything worked fine! I actually did this a second time with a fresh import of the app from 10g, just to be sure I wasnt seeing things. I wasnt!
There was just one further issue - everything worked fine apart from this section of code in a page process:-
ELSIF (:p9_filter_type = 5) THEN
IF (:p9_x_gene_list IS NOT NULL) THEN
:p9_filter := :p9_x_gene_list;
END IF;
:p9_entity_types := 'GENE';
END IF;
In 11g the value of :p9_entity_types was not being set to 'GENE' when :p9_filter_type was 5. This was (and still is) working in 10g. I changed the code as follows:-
ELSIF (:p9_filter_type = 5) THEN
:p9_entity_types := 'GENE';
IF (:p9_x_gene_list IS NOT NULL) THEN
:p9_filter := :p9_x_gene_list;
END IF;
END IF;
... and now it works fine in 11g as well.
Only wish I knew why!

Oracle Upgrade from 10g to 11g [BRANCHED BY MODERATOR]

Hi Deepak/Folks,
Another question that I have is that while doing the Oracle Upgrade on an EP server, the patches were not installed properly and I had to shut down the Patches installation after it did not do anything for a while.
Now when I try to install the patches it fails telling me that the Installed patches cannot be verified, I had written to SAP and they told me to follow the
SAP note 1862446 - Inventory
load failed... OPatch cannot load inventory for the given Oracle Home
and re-create the oracle inventory.
This has also not helped in anyway.
Is there a solution to this problem.
Following is the error that I am getting when I try to Install the patches

Getting error while upgrading rpd to 11g from 10g

Hello,
I have a rpd using obiee 10g.I want to open the same in obiee 11g,but getting error like need to run one file.
obieerpdmigrateutil.exe.
So i just run with -i,-u and -o option, that now i am getting this error->
The file 'DBFeatures.INI' is required for RPD migration and could not be located. Please ensure that ORACLE_INSTANCE is pointing to a valid instance directory.
Thanks

Hi akshara,
Firstly you need to upgrade from 10g to 11g,you need to run a .bat file from the path and follow some steps like collecting the artifact files like NQSconfig.ini,instanceconfig.xml,DBfeatures.ini with RPD and catalog to upgrade to 11g.
Here is the step by step process to upgrade and some artifact files manually given in step 2 of this blog http://prolynxuk.com/blog/?p=424
http://www.biconsultinggroup.com/images/VideoAlbum/OBIEE11gUpgrade11-4-10.pdf
(OR) standard documentation Start here http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E1457101/bi.htm_
If still the problem exists you manually update the DBfeature.ini file going to the specific location in 10g and copy them to 11g path.
hope helps you.
Cheers,
KK

Check list for upgrading from 10g to 11g when there is a schema replication

Hi
We are looking to upgrade one of our production database from 10g to 11g
Currently this database has one schema that is replicated to 2 other databases using Oracle streams.
The replication is excluing DDLs and excluding several other application tables.
What should I do pre and post the upgrade ?
should we remove the stream configuration all together and rebuild it after the upgrade ?
I was hoping that we can first upgrade the two target databases to 11g and then the source database, without impacting our streams configuration at all
Is that possible ?
Is there any documentation on the subject ?
thanks in advance
Orna

Pl post the OS versions of the source and target servers, along with exact (4-digit) versions of "10g" and "11g". I do not have any experience with streams, but the 11gR2 Upgrade Doc suggests that you upgrade the downstream target databases first before upgrading the source - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E11882_01/server.112/e10819/upgrade.htm#CIAFJJFC

Error after upgrading BI Publisher report from 10g to 11g

Hi All,
I have migrated the BI Publisher from 10g to 11g. The upgrade was done using the upgrade assistant and the installation process was a success.
However whenever I try to access the reports in 11g after migration I get the following error:
oracle.xdo.servlet.CreateException: Data Model definition not found:/dlypurge.xdm.
I have tried modifying the .xdo to include the following:
<dataModel url="/RMS/dlypurge/dlypurge.xdm"/> where dlypurge is one of the reports. However in the BI Publisher does not seem to access the latest .xdo file.
Any suggestions on how to rectify the error.

ODI Procedures not working after upgrading from 10G to 11G

Hello Gurus,
We have run into a scenario where the procedures in ODI are not working after we upgraded it from 10G to 11G (11.1.1.6). However we can make it to run if we create the procedure from scratch.
Also we are having issues related to packages where in the packages were running before we applied the patch 11.1.1.6.3. And after applying the patches they are not running.
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

If you want someone to help you, please be elaborate in the exact errors you are getting.
A general statement would do nothing but guess work.
What is the error that you get while executing the procedure.
What are the exact issues that you get while executing packages ?

Hi,
if your using oracle db please make sure your db settings and tnsnames.oRA settings
also try you please try below troubleshooting steps:
1) please check latest error message and find the root cause,
presentation catalog log path:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIPresentationServicesComponent\coreapplication_obips1\sawlog0.txt file
also check it nqserver.log file
oracle bi server log path ref:
obiee installed Drive:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\diagnostics\logs\OracleBIServerComponent\coreapplication_obis1\nqserver.log
2)can you try to login RPD,EM and console by using your weblogic a/c then try to login with some other user.
if its not working then try to delete that users from catlog and check it Check OPMN services are running state.
e.x:
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl startall
opmnctl startall: starting opmn and all managed processes...
C:\Oracle\Middleware\instances\instance1\bin>opmnctl status
Processes in Instance: instance1

coreapplication_obips1 | OracleBIPresentat~ | 5684 | Alive
coreapplication_obis1 | OracleBIServerCom~ | 5232 | Alive
3) Refresh GUIDs and Restart WebLogic and OPMN Services then try it again...still if your getting same issues then try to
check DB(try to login and confirm) and check it RPD --> physical layer connection pool setting and try to
view physical data.
also paste it your latest error log message (nqserver.log and sawlog01.log message) here

Issues after upgrading the Obiee from 10g to 11g

Hi all,
We have recently upgraded our rpd from 10g to 11g. And a part of Webcatlog is being upgraded. We observe issues with the upgraded reports.
As the for the report prompts the script was taking lot of time. And the browser pop's a message either to 'stop' or 'continue'.
The report is taking lot of time to run than the usual 10g environment. And the path BP1 is also applied for the 11g environment.
Please suggest a troubleshoot method to overcome the issues with the upgraded reports.
Thank you,
Chris.
