How to change database in CR XI Release 2?

I'm using CR 11 Release 2
I created a report pointing to a SQL stored procedure in our 'development' database (called development). I now want to change the report to point to the identically named stored procedure in our 'Production' database.
I tried the Database --> Set Datasource Location and then Verify Database from the menu, but my data doesn't show. When I look at 'Show Sql Query' on the database menu, it still shows the 'development' database. This is wrong. Why aren't my changes taking affect?
All my attempts at searching for a solution have turned up with the above solution. What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi
When you go in Set Datasource Location have you updated your old connection with new connection ?
If not create a new connection to your new environment and update the connection with new. Also try to create a new report using new environment stored procedure and check the data.
Thanks,
Sastry

Problems with spfile. How to change database parameters

Hello
My Oracle database is 10.2.0 and SAP version is NW2004s. I am having errors in alert.log file
Thread 1 cannot allocate new log, sequence 3959
Checkpoint not complete
Sun Aug 27 01:38:12 2006
I have changed the parameter log_buffer from 14274560 to 1048576 following the SAP Note 830576. I changed the pfile and created a spfile from this pfile. Now the pfile and spfile reflect the parameter log_buffer as 1048576.
But surprisingly, when I say
SQL> show parameter log_buffer
NAME                               TYPE                VALUE
log_buffer                         integer         14274560
Even after pfile and spfile reflecting 1048576 value for log_buffer, the database is showing this old value. Kindly let me know how to change the log_buffer parameter.

hi,
check which file it is reading
sql>sho parameter spfile
If it is reading spfile
issue alter system set log_buffer=<value> scope=spfile;
down and bring up database
If it is not reading spfile means reading pfile change parameter in INIT<SID>.ORA file
move all files which starts with spfile in dir $ORACLE_HOME/dbs to backup location
connect to database
create spfile from pfile
check $ORACLE_HOME/dbs only one spfile<sid>.ora exists
bring up database
and look for log_buffer
I guess ur changing in some other file which oracle is not reading.
or u can issue startp pfile='path';
then u can create spfile and issue startup force.

How to Change Database of Report before Exporting?

I am having difficulties changing the database that the report should run against.
We are using Oracle. In the past when scheduling a report through CE, I would manipuate the Desktop.ReportLogons object. For Oracle I simple changed the CustomServerName, CustomUserName, and CustomPassword properties. Everything worked fine when the report was scheduled and ran.
Now I am doing an on-demand report without an interactive viewer. I am doing everything in code using RasAppFactory and the ReportClientDocument.
I am looking at the DatabaseController of ReportClientDocument. I thought I could just use the LogonEx method passing in the server, user, password, and an empty string for the database since for Oracle connections you only specify server and not database. However, it is still trying to connect to the defined database.
Can someone point me to an Oracle specific example of how to properly change database info when report runs?
Do I need to be using other methods like one of the SetTableLocation methods?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Hello, Stephen;
You are correct, with Oracle you do not need the Database property.
The person logged on to Business Objects Enterprise through the RAS .NET application would need rights to make the change in database connections. Can the usr with the same logon make the change directly in Enterprise?
The ReportClientDocument separates the Server Name and Database from the User ID and Password with the PropertyBag. The convenience methods such as LogonEx will only change the User ID and Password. To change all four properties you need the full RAS logon code.
The full logon for RAS would use code as shown below.

How to change database schema of data source in OWB?

Hi,
Could someone give me hint about my questions:
I select many database schema in TOAD. like "My Shema" and "All Schema".
If I create a Oracle Data Source in OWB 10.2. All tables/viewsI can see only from "My Schema" (I think it is default), However, I need to connect "All Scema". There are lots of prod tables/views. I don't know how to set/change/config in OWB even reading guide.
Thanks a lot
Lan

Lan,
You can ONE of the following:
1. Dbl click the src/target module and go to metadata location tab and select a location that has the details pointing to the different schema (If you do not have this location created, you may have to create one).
2. Create synonyms in "My Schema" to objects from other schema. Then try to import the tables again. This time you will be able to see the other tables (the icon will be different for synonyms.)
Hope That Helps.
Kaushik.

How to change Database character set?

Hi,
We are planning to make a clone of production Database which has:
select value$ from sys.props$ where name='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
AL32UTF8
We have set up a new server for that purpose and installed database, but by default it has
select value$ from sys.props$ where name='NLS_CHARACTERSET';
WE8ISO8859P1
So after making full import from full backup file we have some broken character in database.
How can I change from WE8ISO8859P1 to AL32UTF8?
I expect that I need to shutdown the clone database or even make from scratch full import.
Thanks

I made a full backup from production database which has AL32UTF8
My new database is fresh and it has WE8ISO8859P1
I think the reason why I'm having some corrupted characters is because of difference in Character set between two database, right?
so I will need to change new database Character set to AL32UTF8 then make again full import.

How to change database in crystal report design

Hi experts

But when I Run the report it show the previous database records.

What do you mean by this?
I have not yet installed the Crystal Addon for SAP (Using R1 Reports now) I would hope that Addon allows you to use a different database with Crystal, my current solution does and that is how I build most of my reports with views and sp's.
I hope this is not to far off topic.
Thanks

How to change Database server is case-insensitive setting at runtime

Is there a way to change any of the properties in Report Options > General Settings at runtime. Mainly the [Database server is case-insensitive] and [Perform grouping on server] settings. We are using the Crystal .Net X1 runtimes (11.5.9707.811). I have sesrched the forums with no luck so thought I'd try my luck here. Thankyou for your time.

Hi Simon,
Sorry, search for the function using the Object Browser in .NET. If you have Crsytal Reports XI R2 (11.5.x.xxxx) then you have it. Unless it's not a developer version. In whcih case you need to upgrade.
If you do have the Developer version then simply add the RAS assemblies to your project. Look in our samples above for more info on h ow to use RAS.
If you don't have the Developer version then your only options are to upgrade or manually change the report settings in the Designer.
Thank you

How to Change Database parameters as suggested by EWA report

Dear Experts,

Run "brspace -f dbparam"
Select option 1 "Change parameter value" and change the parameters. After changing select option 3 to create a new init.ora.
If you change parameters that have the scope "spfile" oracle requires a restart. If you only change parameters with scope "both" you don't need a restart of oracle. This changes are affected on the fly.
To restart oracle:
connect / as sysdba
SQL> shutdown
SQL> startup
You don't need to stop SAP if you only change oracle parameters. SAP reconnects automatically if the database is up.

How can change database one to another in OEM 10g

hello
i have oracle 10g db 10.1.0.2.0 R2.
and 2 db 1. oracle(db_name) approx 5GB 2. oracle1(db_name) approx 2GB
now i am using OEM 10g or db managing.and manage oracle db through OEM.
but i want manage oracle1 db through OEM so what should i do..
plz. give me reply
very soon...
thanx.

If I understand your question correctly, you have one database that's showing in OEM you say. You didn't specify if it's Database Control or Grid Control.
Database Control allows u to manage only 1 database. So using Database Control of db1, you can manage db1. Using database control of db2, you can manage db2.
However if you want to manage both from one server, you can use Grid Control. To make the second node that hosts the second database show up in Grid Control, you need to install the management agent on that node. After that, once you set up the preferred credentials, it will be in GC.
