Future of Advantage Database Server

What is the future of Advantage Database Server. I have attempted to talk to someone at SYBASE about it but always end up talking with someone at SAP who knows nothing about it.
Is it being phased out?

Hi Stan,
Jay is no longer with the company. Can you Direct Message me your contact info and company name? I'll pass it to the sales group. (Hover over my name and it should pop-up with an option to Direct Message).
At this time I don't believe there are any plans for an upcoming training session in Boise.

New Wiki Page for SAP Advantage Database Server

Please find a collection of ADS related information’s in our new Advantage Wiki Page

All the links on this forum work fine...
But if I try to find the page from the main menu by selecting Wiki, SCM, APO, I don't see any other links to get to CIF, DP, SNP, etc...
Below is what I see (w/o any links to CIF, DP, SNP ,etc..)
But I may have found the path: You click on Additional Features on top right.
This displays the options...
This was NOT obvious...
I was expecting the links on the page itself...
SCM Advanced Planner & Optimizer
APO (Advanced Planning and Optimization) application is at the heart of SCM. It offers planning and optimization functionalities in different business processes of Demand Planning, Supply Planning, Supply and Demand Matching, Production Planning Detailed Scheduling, Global Available to Promise and Transportation Management.
Collaboration with Suppliers and Customers is also possible through newer application Supply Network Collaboration (SNC) till recently known as Inventory Collation Hub (ICH)
With SCM 5.0 a new set of functionalities under Services Parts Planning were added specifically catering to Spare Parts Management.
APO as a application is tightly integrated to execution (OLTP) system like ERP using a standard interface called Core Interface Function (CIF). It also has full BI (erstwhile BW) component for Data Mart as well as Reporting functionalities.

How can we export the Primary key values (along with other data) from an Advantage database?

One of our customers is moving from our application (which uses Advantage Database Server) to another application (which uses other database technology). They have asked us to help export their data, so that they can migrate it to another database system. So far, we have used the Advantage Data Architect (ARC32) "Export Table Structures as Code" functionality to generate SQL. We used the "Include existing data" option. The SQL contains the necessary code to recreate the tables and indexes. The customer's IT staff will alter the SQL statements as necessary for their new system.
However, there is an issue with the Primary Keys in these table. The resulting INSERT statements use AutoInc as the type for the Primary Key in each Table. These INSERT statements contains "DEFAULT" for the value of each of these AutoInc fields. The customer would like to output an integer value for each of these Primary Key values in order to maintain referential integrity in their new system.
So far, I have not found any feature of ARC32 that allows us to export the Primary Key values. We had been using an older version of ARC32, since our application does not use the latest version of ADS. I did download the latest version of ARC32 (11.10), but it does not appear to include any new functionality that would facilitate doing this sort of export.
Can somebody tell me if there is such a feature in ARC32?
Or, is there is another Advantage tool to facilitate what we are trying to accomplish?
If there are no Advantage tools to provide such functionality, what else would you suggest?

George,
It sounds like the approach you are using is the correct one. This seems to be the cleanest solution to me especially since the customer is able to modify the generated SQL statements for their new system.
In order to preserve the AutoInc values I would recommend altering the table and changing the field datatype from AutoInc to Integer. Then export the table as code which will export the actual values. After the tables have been created on the new system they can change the field datatype back to an AutoInc type if necessary.

Chris Franz

Cannot see "Oracle Database Server" in Data Source in VS2005

I've installed "ODTwithODAC10202.exe" on my machine. When I'm trying to add connection in server explorer in VS2005, I cannot see the "Oracle Database Server (Oracle ODP.NET)" in Data Source field. However, I try to connect to database with Oracle Explorer, it works.
Thanks
Noppadon

You need to download and install the latest version 11 beta release to take advantage of the latest features, including integration with Server Explorer.

Newbie: EL6 "database server" installed - how do I get the Gnome desktop ?

I installed fresh EL6 on the same partition where EL5.6 was installed - did a reformat of "/" to take advantage of ext4.
While installing EL6, I chose "Database Server" option - and did custom partitioning to preserve my other OS-es. The installation ran fine
However I do not get Gnome ( or KDE will do too ) desktop.
How do I add that ? Will I need to run install again and choose a "desktop" option (without formatting the root partition ) ?
I have ULN registration if it matters
Thanks

There are lots and lots of RPM packages which make up the GNOME or KDE environment. Trying to install them all piecemeal is a daunting task. To address this, yum(8) has a feature known as "package groups" whereby you can install or remove all of the components making up that group in a single command. This how you want to do it.
Unfortunately, neither ULN and public-yum.oracle.com appear to have support for these package groups. But, the RPM package groups are defined on the DVD installation media.
This is the general approach:
1) Make a clean install of the O/S and database product.
2) DO NOT UP2DATE ANYTHING JUST YET!
3) With the installation DVD still present, create a YUM repository which points to it. Something as simple as:
cd /etc/yum.repos.d
echo '[dvd]' >dvd.repo
echo 'baseurl=file:///path/to/where/you/have/the/iso/mounted' >>dvd.repo
echo 'enabled=1' >>dvd.repo
echo 'gpgcheck=false' >>dvd.reposhould do the trick.
4) Check your work:
# yum grouplist5) Install the GNOME group:
# yum groupinstall "GNOME Desktop Environment"6) Now, configure your ULN subscription at http://linux.oracle.com:
# /usr/sbin/up2date --registerThere are two tricks here:
1. The package group information is available only on the distro media.
2. To use the group information on the distro DVD media, all currently-installed packages must match the versions available on the media. Cannot mix-and-match between the distro media and up2date packages.
Hope this helps.

Is request from client's PC or my database server?

Hi, guys:
I am new to APEX. I would ask a question that may be silly. I need to develop a database project with APEX and Google map service. I notice there is limit for Google map service. I would assume if I write javascript code in APEX and send request to Google such as loading a map, the request is sent from client browser directly to Google map server, not from my database server to Google map server, so my application won't break the service limit. Is this assumption correct?
Thanks a lot!
Sam

Hi,
Thanks for your help. I am concerned because Google may stop service as folllows. If the request is sent from a client PC, database server won't break quota assigned. Otherwise, we have to find another solution.
Sam

Performance issue with database server

Hello,
We have installed ECC 6.0 on HP UX 11.23 OS with Oracle as database.
We have cluster environment in our production severs.
One server as DB-CI installed and other as Dialogue Instance installed.
After installation, the dialogue instance (Application server))works fine but if we login into DB server and execute any t-code It takes too much time or just stuck.
and after that if I go to application and execute that t-code it works fine and after that if I go to database and execute that t-code now even in DB it works fine.
Kindly guide me.
Thanks,
Chandresh Pranami.

Hi Chandresh,
Check below things for your Database server.
SM50 - Workprocess status busy or wait
ST04 - Data buffer hit ratio
SM37 - Any background job running there.
Normally even if you are login through a diffrent app server the database side execution will happen in db server only.Application server will do the execution but the data read and to be updated will happen in db server only.When the sql request will go to db server may select update..types of sql then it willalways will be processed by db server.
So there will be lot of load already thereIg you execute your work here it will take more time because more load for the application will be there.
Regards
Ashok

Runtime Repository on local database server only

This is a why question, as I have read the installation and configuration guides and don't see this answer. Please forgive me if I've overlooked it.
I am installing OWB in a client/server fashion; the database server resides on a UNIX platform, the client on Windows. I ran the OWB Repository Assistant from my windows desktop, and the repository owner and its objects were created. However, I see in the manual that the OWB Runtime Assistant must run on the same machine where the database resides. I did so, started up the Runtime Assistant on UNIX and created the Runtime Repository into a new user schema, and then a Runtime Access user. All went well.
It looks to me as if both of these wizards create database objects. Why can the Repository Assistant be executed from the desktop environment, but the Runtime Assistant needs to be executed where the database lives, in my case, UNIX. It seems that only database objects are created, it shouldn't matter where the wizard is run from, as long as a database connection can be made.
I feel like I'm missing a piece of the puzzle, can anyone enlighten me. Perhaps a daemon or service is started that I need to know about?

Perhaps a daemon or service is started that I need to know about?That's it! There are some java-services running outside the database. That's e.g. the reason why you can't deploy to an OS/390 system, because these services are not migrated for this JVM yet.

'Unable to connect to database server' on local test server (CS4)

I am a php/MySql newb. Have designed static sites in DW since Macromedia DW 4 days.
I have set up a testing server on my Mac running OSX 10.6.7 using MAMP 1.9.5 and Dreamweaver CS4 to test my osCommerce store (I like to see what's happening visually, even if I just change a small variable in the code). Although I have imported the store database from my remote server, and the connection tests in the DW Database window to the store, mysql, and information schema databases in Dreamweaver are successful, I still get "Unable to connect to the database server!" when I try to preview a .php page with Live View or with a browser. I'm using the correct ports in my site definition (8888 and 8889). MAMP shows Apache and MySQL running, of course. Have tried logging in as root and as my ususal username witht the correct passwords. Everything seems to be right...but it's still wrong.
Do I also need to import the mysql and information schema databases from my remote server to replace the ones that came with MAMP? If so, where do I put the information schema db? Although it shows as a database in PhpMyAdmin, I don't see a folder or doc by that name anywhere in MAMP - it must be buried pretty deep! (I did find a file called information_schema_relations.lib.php in MAMP/bin/phpMyAdmin/libraries. Is that it?)
Or is it something else entirely?
Note that though I'm a fairly savvy user, I am not a developer or coder. Strictly a GUI/static design guy with a liberal arts education. Keep the answers simple and in plain English, thanks.
Have also posted this on the MAMP forum.

hi
How to get up and running with WebUtil 1.06 included with Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2 on a win32 platform
Solution
Assuming a fresh "Complete" install of Oracle Developer Suite 10.1.2.0.2,
here are steps to get a small test form running, using WebUtil 1.06.
Note: Oracle_Home is used as an alias for your real oDS ORACLE_HOME.
Feel free to copy this note to a text editor, and do a global find/replace on
Oracle_Home with your actual value (no trailing slash). Then it is easy to
copy/paste actual commands to be executed from the note copy.
1) Download http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/jacob-project/jacob_18.zip
and extract to a temporary staging area. Do not attempt to use 1.7 or 1.9.
2) Copy or move jacob.jar and jacob.dll
C:\webutile is the folder where you extracted Jacob, and will end in ...\jacob_18
cd C:\webutile
copy jacob.jar Oracle_Home\forms\java\.
copy jacob.dll Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\.
The Jacob staging area is no longer needed, and may be deleted.
3) Sign frmwebutil.jar and jacob.jar
Open a DOS command prompt.
Add Oracle_Home\jdk\bin to the PATH:
set PATH=Oracle_Home\jdk\bin;%PATH%
Sign the files, and check the output for success:
Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\sign_webutil Oracle_Home\forms\java\frmwebutil.jar
Oracle_Home\forms\webutil\sign_webutil Oracle_Home\forms\java\jacob.jar
4) If you already have a schema in your RDBMS which contains the WebUtil stored code,
you may skip this step. Otherwise,
Create a schema to hold the WebUtil stored code, and privileges needed to
connect and create a stored package. Schema name "WEBUTIL" is recommended
for no reason other than consistency over the user base.
Open Oracle_Home\forms\create_webutil_db.sql in a text editor, and delete or comment
out the EXIT statement, to be able to see whether the objects were created witout
errors.
Start SQL*Plus as SYSTEM, and issue:
CREATE USER webutil IDENTIFIED BY [password]
DEFAULT TABLESPACE users
TEMPORARY TABLESPACE temp;
GRANT CONNECT, CREATE PROCEDURE, CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM TO webutil;
CONNECT webutil/webutil@rcci
@Oracle_Home\forms\create_webutil_db.sql
-- Inspect SQL*Plus output for errors, and then
CREATE PUBLIC SYNONYM webutil_db FOR webutil.webutil_db;
Reconnect as SYSTEM, and issue:
grant execute on webutil_db to public;
5) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\default.env, and append Oracle_Home\jdk\jre\lib\rt.jar
to the CLASSPATH entry.
6) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\formsweb.cfg insde [default] add :
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar,frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar
archive=frmall.jar
also add :
[webutil]
WebUtilLogging=off
WebUtilLoggingDetail=normal
WebUtilErrorMode=Alert
WebUtilDispatchMonitorInterval=5
WebUtilTrustInternal=true
WebUtilMaxTransferSize=16384
baseHTMLjinitiator=webutiljini.htm
baseHTMLjpi=webutiljpi.htm
baseHTML=webutilbase.htm
archive_jini=frmall_jinit.jar
WebUtilArchive=frmwebutil.jar,jacob.jar,f90all.jar
archive=frmwebutil.jar,f90all.jar
lookAndFeel=oracle
7) Modify Oracle_Home\forms\server\webutil.cfg and add :
transfer.database.enabled=TRUE
transfer.appsrv.enabled=TRUE
8) Start the OC4J instance
9) Start Forms Builder and connect to a schema in the RDBMS used in step (4).
Open webutil.pll, do a "Compile ALL" (shift-Control-K), and generate to PLX (Control-T).
It is important to generate the PLX, to avoid the FRM-40039 discussed in Note 303682.1
If the PLX is not generated, the Webutil.pll library would have to be attached with
full path information to all forms wishing to use WebUtil. This is NOT recommended.
10) Create a new FMB.
Open webutil.olb, and Subclass (not Copy) the Webutil object to the form.
There is no need to Subclass the WebutilConfig object.
Attach the Webutil.pll Library, and remove the path.
Add an ON-LOGON trigger with the code
NULL;
to avoid having to connect to an RDBMS (optional).
Create a new button on a new canvas, with the code
show_webutil_information (TRUE);
in a WHEN-BUTTON-PRESSED trigger.
Compile the FMB to FMX, after doing a Compile-All (Shift-Control-K).
11) Under Edit->Preferences->Runtime in Forms Builder, click on "Reset to Default" if
the "Application Server URL" is empty.
Then append "?config=webutil" at the end, so you end up with a URL of the form
http://server:port/forms/frmservlet?config=webutil
12) Run your form.

How to connect several database server

I want to build a web site using jsp servlet for my university course purpose. In the background i will have three servers one is database server like server A another is certificate authority server like server B and the other one is Bank server like server C. Next, user will input through login page(say for example user name & password for database server A, certificate credentials for server B) then the login page will check user credentials kept in server A and at the same time with server B(CA server). If the user credentials kept in both of these servers(A &B) are matched then the page will inform that this is the valid user and connect to the bank server for money transaction. I hope now the my problem is clear to you. please answer me how can i prepare for that.
what are the concepts related to that and have any demo code which i can use for that purpose.

Cross posted all over the place.

What is the OS version of the PC you are running and is it physical machine or virtual machine that is running the HRC client ..
OS Version Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit and it’s a physical machine.
. The Max DB Connections for Report Client Sessions is set to 5 for each servers (There are two servers). The no of HR Sessions is set to 10.
I wanted to know if there is a way to find the HRC sessions active now and terminate the one or more or all of that sessions from the server end ?

We have had this "PRX5" problem with Exchange 2013 since the RTM version. We recently applied CU3, and it did not correct the problem. We have seen this problem on every Exchange 2013 we manage. They are all installations where all roles
are installed on the same Windows server, and in our case, they are all Windows virtual machines using Windows 2012 Hyper-V.
We have tried all the "this fixed it for me" solutions regarding DNS, network cards, host file entries and so forth. None of those "solutions" made any difference whatsoever. The occurrence of the temporary error PRX5 seems totally random.
About 2 out of 20 incoming mail test by Microsoft Connectivity Analyzer fail with this PRX5 error.
Most people don't ever notice the issue because remote mail servers retry the connection later. However, telephone voice mail systems that forward voice message files to email, or other such applications such as your scanner, often don't retry and
simply fail. Our phone system actually disables all further attempts to send voice mail to a particular user if the PRX5 error is returned when the email is sent by the phone system.
Is Microsoft totally oblivious to this problem?
PRX5 is a serious issue that needs an Exchange team resolution, or at least an acknowledgement that the problem actually does exist and has negative consequences for proper mail flow.

Error when installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.

Hi to all.
Currently, i am trying to install patches for portal server.
The server OS is Sun Solaris 8.
We are using Oracle9iAS.
Now, we are installing 9.0.1.4.0 patch set for the Oracle Database Server.
We managed to install the patch, but have problem with the Post Install Action.
We managed to run
-ALTER SYSTEM ENABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-@rdbms/admin/catpatch.sql
-ALTER SYSTEM DISABLE RESTRICTED SESSION;
-CONNECT / AS SYSDBA
-update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
-commit;
But, when we come to the next command, which is to shutdown, it gives us like
this..
SQL> update obj$ set status=5 where type#=29 and owner#!=0;
1402 rows updated.
SQL> commit;
Commit complete.
SQL> shutdown immediate
Database closed.
Database dismounted.
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-01219: database not open: queries allowed on fixed tables/views only
We tried to startup the database..it gives us this error..
SQL> startup
ORA-01081: cannot start already-running ORACLE - shut it down first
So, we tried to shutdown again..
SQL> shutdown immediate
ORA-01089: immediate shutdown in progress - no operations are permitted
I been informed that this is maybe a Database problem related. Any ideas?
Best Wishes,

How to get log information from database server?

Oracle 9.2 in Unix
we got blocking error in the production database last midnight for 40 min and nothing was being processed during that time which delayed our production night batch process. Then it was gone after 40min. I like to know what was happening during that time in the database. My question is where I can find error in the database server? In bdump? Appreciate any ideas.
Thanks
S.

If you have jobs regularly collect statspack report, then it will be easier to troubleshoot. You can just pull the report from the time period.
A couple of things you can check if there's any storage issue during the time, like some backup or other jobs running taken all OS storage, so Oracle hung because no space to archive logs. Usually this will log errors in alert.log but if bdump destination also full, the error will not be logged.
Check OS activity during the time frame, what's CPU and IO activity. See if you have sar installed and configured
check OS message file.
