Dropped Design Repository from OWB

I accidentally dropped the design repository from OWB. A backup copy has been restored to the DB, but still it's missing. Please help.

What OWB release you used and how did you create backup?
If OWB release is 9.2 and backup has been created with Oracle exp utility then you can try to use script Restore_repos.txt from OWB Sample code page (this is the sequence of actions for restoring design repository). Find this script at
http://www.oracle.com/technology/sample_code/products/warehouse/index.html
Maybe this document will work and for OWB10gR1 but I don't sure.

  • Runtime and design repository in OWB 10.2

    Hi,
    I am doing a migration from OWB 10.1.0.4 to OWB 10.2. In the previous versions of OWB there was two repositories: the design and the runtime. In the last version there is only one repository.
    Searching in the documentation, I found that if I want two separate repositories in this new version, I have to build two repositories. Then, from the Design Center I could access the Control Center Managers of the two repositories, without having the metadata in both repositories.
    The problem is: I can't get the control center of the second repository configured in the right way. Or I can't start the mappings because of privileges, or the objects don't appear in the control center.
    How can I work with two repositories with OWB 10.2? Should I give up this approach and build just one repository?
    Thanks

    Its resolved now it was because of an access issue.

  • Installation of Design Repository using OWB Rel 1

    I installed OWB Rel 1 on server and then try to create Design Repository.
    It did not work as error appears on first screen " Can not connect o database - verify connect information". I provided correct information (sys user/password, host name, service name, port number) and tried different things e.g. instead of host name ip address etc. But result was same.
    any body can help me to sort this out?

    Hi,
    i´m not sure but i think you must give a connect string, in an explicit sequence.
    Well, maybe you better have a look at the Guides of Installation.
    Watch there: http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html

  • Upgrade of Designer repository from 6i to latest version

    Is the designer repository supported in a 10gR2 database?
    We plan to upgrade to the latest developer suite and i'm working on a POC. I've upgraded the repository database to 10gR2. Now, i plan to install the latest version of developer suite on a client box and then run the RAU to upgrade the repository.
    Has anyone done this? And can share his/her experience?
    Thanks.

    According to the Metalink note about this (Note:60705.1), both 9i and 10g Designer can run on 10gR2 databases. You're right to upgrade though, because the 6i repository is not certified on that database.
    By the by, latest full Developer Suite is 10.1.2.0.2. But there is a newer Designer (v 10.1.2.2) available, which that same Metalink note says is certified with the base 10.1.2.0.2 Developer. I'd go with the newest Designer if I were you.
    have fun

  • Problem on upgrading the designer repository from v1.3.2 to Desig6

    Hi folks,
    I have a database 8.1.6 running on SunSolaris. I migrated a database instance from v 7.3.2 which has the designer repositories (DES v1.3.2). Now after migrating the database to V8.1.6, I tried upgrade the repository through the Admin Util of Designer6, I'm getting the error saying that I have not granted the EXECUTE on SYS.LOCK and SYS.PIPE to the install. The desiger owner has these privileges granted to them already. I also tried granting this explictily and tried things and it was again comming up with the same error. So could some one advice me of what to do to get away from this problem.
    I ran a log and got the following

    To clarify, your index entries were in the database but NOT defined in Des 1.3.2 model? Because if they were in the model, then I'd look back at your intermediate migration definitions to make sure the indexes were still defined properly in there.
    In Des 2.1/6.0/6i/9i/10g, Indexes are a separate sub-element (SACs) for a Table Definition. They don't have to be associated with a key structure. And in newer database versions, a PK / UK has an implicit index constructed for it in the database, so Designer doesn't bother showing you the Index in the model. Just the PK or UK itself (again, these are also separate SACs).
    And it's not clear where you're getting the error. During the generate? Or during the instantiation into a database? Neither situation is a common fault.

    I am new to OWB so please let me know if I've left out any information that would help in figuring out why the installation is not completing.
    Thanks.

    The only thing I can think of in OWB 11g is that the main schema that is used, which is OWBSYS, wasn't fully installed or it doesn't have all the tables or views it needs or they weren't created properly with the cat_owb.sal script.
    Something must not have been created right. I would try to stop all OWB services with the appropriate scripts in:
    <your_owb_home>owb\rtp\sql
    try the stop_service.sql script.
    Then try to drop the users owbsys and whatever you might have created (if it exists) for a workspace owner user. Then clean up with:
    <your_owb_home>\owb\UnifiedRepos\clean_owbsys.sql
    After that it is back to the drawing board from the beginning. DO these steps again that you likely did in the first place:
    1. create owbsys with:
    <your_owb_home>\owb\UnifiedRepos\cat_owb.sql <tablespace_name>
    2. Set the control center home with:
    <your_owb_home>\owb\UnifiedRepos\reset_owbcc_home.sql <your_owb_home>
    *pay attention to the case of the the OWB HOME you give as a variable to the above script.  It needs to match the case of your real path.
    3. Finally unlock owbsys.
    4. look at <your_owb_home>\owb\bin\admin\ if the rtrepos.properties file size is at '0'. If it is for some reason, rename it to something else right now.
    5. Then try to run the repository assistant again.

  • Upgrade Designer Repository

    Hello,
    I want to upgrade my Designer Repository the following steps I have done.
    1. export Designer repository from 9i DB
    2. import Designer repository in 10g DB
    3. grand dba rights to repository owner
    4. start 10g Repository Administration Utility
    Repository Status: Release 4.0.12.94.24
    5. push upgrade button, new form appears.
    6. when i try to start the upgrade I get the error
    "You do not have SELECT privilege on sys.v_$PARAMETER view. The process cannot proceed."
    When i check the Requirements all options are green, so i have the dba rights and i can select from v_$Parameter.
    Can someone help me please?
    Thanks Franz

    When you follow the steps in creating a new repository from the "Repository Installation Guide" you will see that the user will need the following grants:
    grant execute on dbms_rls to repos_owner;
    grant execute on dbms_lock to repos_owner;
    grant execute on dbms_pipe to repos_owner;
    grant create table to repos_owner;
    grant create view to repos_owner;
    grant create procedure to repos_owner;
    grant create synonym to repos_owner;
    grant create sequence to repos_owner;
    grant select on sys.v_$nls_parameters to repos_owner with grant option;
    grant select on sys.v_$parameter to repos_owner;
    grant select on dba_rollback_segs to repos_owner;
    grant select on dba_segments to repos_owner;
    grant create any synonym to repos_owner;
    grant drop any synonym to repos_owner;
    You wrote that you export the repository from the 9i database. Are you doing this from the RAU or the RON or from the database?

  • Designer repository question

    We currently have our designer repository at configuration 4.0.12.96.16. We were told that this version could be accessed by both Designer 6i and Designer 9i. The repository resides on an 8i database right now and we want to go to a 10g database.
    I've checked the designer documentation on how to upgrade from a 6i or higher to 10g. However, i want to know if my designer 6i could still access this repository if i upgrade only the repository. The certification matrix doesn't cover designer 6i anymore...
    Has anyone gone through this upgrade and can share lessons learned?

    If you just upgrade de database version of the database where the repository resides from 8i to 10 there should be no problem. But if you upgrade the designer repository from 9i to 10g you will (probably) not be able to access this repository from a 6i or 9i client (only 10g client).

  • Getting the following error when upgrading designer repository

    Hello All,
    I`m going through the upgrade of the designer repository from 6i to 10gR2 and I get the following error in the log file ckprereq.log. The weird thing is from the GUI everything looked ok. It`s when i went to the individual log files tha ti saw the error:
    IMP-00003-ORACLE error 3120 encountered
    ORA-03120: two task conversion routine:integer overflow
    IMP-00000: Import terminated unsuccessfully
    Has anyone see this?
    Thanks.

    Yes, i just wanted to know the contents of the log file ckprereq.log. How many tables were imported?
    I only have the two tables ck_installed_objets and ck_product_elements before getting the oracle import error.
    I opened an SR with Oracle and they said if you don't have any missing, disabled or invalid objects, the repository was probably upgraded ok. But I wanted to confirm how many tables should be imported during a successful import.
    Thanks again Wayne.
    Hi Rodney,
    Yes, I still have all the logs from the upgrade.
    After the upgrade to Designer 10.1.2.0.2 I had 1
    invalid package - oddly enough, the logs don't show
    an error. I recompiled the one invalid package and
    applied the patch to take us to 10.1.2.2 - except for
    1 path exceeds 1023 characters message the patch
    installed without issues.
    Was there anything in particular you were looking for
    in the logs?
    Best regards,
    Wayne

  • Import model from OWB repository

    We have an OWB repository with several 100 tables, mappings, etc. what we try to import but SQL Modeler seems to import nothing although it gives no errors.
    We've found that before importing all the OWB environment variables must be set.
    Which we did.
    Then it seems to connect to the repository, do some processing and returns but without any changes in the model.
    Did anyone import model from OWB successfully?
    We are using version 10.2 OWB and database.
    Bye,
    Gabor

    OK ive imported from Designer into OSDM just fine.
    Good. Glad this works.
    However things I dont like so far ...;)
    The properties palete can you make it like owb in that when i open it and change context in the browser it updates? I dont want to have to keep going show properties.
    In future releases User Interface will be adresses to be more intuitive and to be more SQL developer alike
    Pushing the OK button does not appear to do anything the properties window stays open so how is it different to apply?
    Sorry, but we don't understand. Pushing OK should work and should close the property window.
    Things I dont like... the number of clicks to see information ( no hotkeys or shortcuts  )
    Agree. In future releases User Interface will be adresses to be more intuitive and to be more SQL developer alike
    Next Early Adopter will have new dialog for entities and tables
    No drag n drop columns from 1 table to another. No right click on browser nodes to create keys etc No CTL drop no SHIFT drop
    You can drag columns
    an enhancement request will be created
    Why cant I reorder columns by moving them in the browser? Then I could move them visually. This also applies to property paletes if I have to go to the effort of highlighting a current row then why cant I just grab it and move it?
    You can reorder columns/attributes by the "up" and "down" arrows after you highlighted the column or attribute in their respective property window.
    an enhancement request will be created for doing this from the browser and the grabbing
    Appears to be no ability to set common properties over a number of attributes. If I select a number of columns I cant pull up a property pallete to set a common attribute on them.
    an enhancement request will be created
    I could not get the enginer to logical model to enable
    Should work. when you have the relational model, use the engineering to logical model icon (2 red arrows) or the design menu option and do engineer to logical model
    Otherwise looks promising
    Thank you!!
    Kind regards,

  • One schema for OWB Design repository, runtime repository and target schema

    Currently we have contents of OWB Design schema, runtime schema and target schema all combined into one schema of the same database in OWB 9.0.2 as well as OWB3i. We like to move to OWB10g in very near future. Can we keep the same structure for convenience of migration in OWB10g? Is it mandatory that OWB design repository (and components) must be separate from OWB run time repository (and components) and target schema? In other words is it possible and workable to use only one schema to contain OWB design repository, OWB run time repository and target schema in OWB10g environment with repositories to be situated on Oracle v9.2.0.1.0? Also what special considerations should be taken to create the database v9.2.0.1.0 and installation of OWB10g. What are the problems/side-effects to have all in one schema?
    Also please let me know how to install Oracle Workflow server to be used along with OWB. Will OWB10g work with repository on Oracle database v9.2.0.1.0?
    Your prompt advice will be very well appreciated.
    Sankar

    The design repo is a metadata repo that stores all the design-time objects and so forth.
    It is an architectural decision that you or your team need to decide on. There are many flexible ways to architect an OWB infrastructure.
    Also, your repository users will be using the design repository on the the other DB instance to do their design work...potentially less people always hitting the target database all the time.

  • OWB Design Repository Tables

    Hi All,
    Is there any document from where I can get a decent insight into the OWB design repository tables and their functions.
    Being a bit more specific, while working in OWB 10gR1 I have experienced situations where a mapping suddenly shows a null pointer exception and becomes un-editable, and un-deployable and un-executable. The only solution then is to make the mapping from scratch. If I can know which all design repository tables are involved in storing a mapping information, then perhaps I can go to the backend fix the issue and retrieve the mapping.
    Please let me know if any of you have any infomation regarding this.
    Regards
    -AP

    Thanks a lot for your information. It gives me some idea of the tables from which these read only views are created.
    I hope, in order to understand more what these underlying tables are for, I need to scratch my head :))
