How to make new database connection using Oracle BI Interactive Dashboards

Hi,
I install Oracle BI Intelligence on my system.
I am using Oracle BI Interactive Dashboard. Here we have default database connection.
but now i want to use it for my own database. Can any body give me guideline how to
make a new data base connection using this s/w or how to connect to my database so
that i can make my own reports.
I am using
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/obe_bi/bi_ee_1013/saw/saw.html
this link.
i make odbc connection which is fine.
but
Restoring the Business Intelligence Presentation Catalog and Updating Metadata
The third point blow above heading is not clear.
Thanks

Umesh - in order to build Answers and Dashboard content you must first setup a Physical model, then a Business model, followed by a Presentation Catalog/Subject Area.
All these tasks are carried out using the Repository Administration Utility.
1) Import your physical tables using OCI/ODBC into the physical layer.
2) Build your model
3) Deploy
Then you're ready to start building answers/dashboards.
Good Luck.

Making a 'common' connection and passing it around is a bad idea. And making a new connection on every page, as you seem to have already guessed, also involves an overhead that you can do without.
Like drvijayj2k2 has mentioned, you should use connection pooling.
Take a look at the Apache Commons DBCP [1] and it's examples [2].

You don't need a DSN if you use Oracle's JDBC driver.

Help: How to make JDeveloper to connect to Oracle repository through CMAN?

Hi folks,
I have a very dummy problem.
I have JDeveloper on Linux.
I have on Oracle SCM Repository in a database, which is across WAN.
The database is accessible through connection manager.
BUT HOW DO I EXPLAIN TO JDEVELOPER , that there is a Connection Manager. It only allows me to enter host:port:sid. It doesn't allow me to enter custom JDBC URL.
This is really missing functionality...
Please help me,
Regards,
Mihail Daskalov

The support for Oracle SCM in JDeveloper can only connect via thin JDBC. This always requires a host, port and SID. The limitation is due to underlying limitations in the libraries we use to connect to Oracle SCM.
Is your database connection using OCI? We have an existing enhancement request for OCI support (2700757), but let me know if it's another connection type, and I'll add that to the ER.
Thanks,

How many number of database connections used in a transaction

Hi All,
We are using weblogic 8.1 with Oracle 9i both running on windows 2000. We are trying to estimate the potential resource usage in the system we are building. As part of this activity we want to find out how the database connections are used for entity beans -
If a session bean calls more than one entity beans
(each method in the entity bean doing one update) does weblogic use the same database connection for all the entity beans or does it use seperate connections ? Is such behaviour documented somewhere ?
Here the assumption is all the entity beans are linked to the same datasource.
If the (default) behaviour is to use seperate connections is there a way to make it use one connection across multiple entity beans.
Thanks
Kingshuk

Hi Bodapati,
Sorry for the delay in replying to this.
There is optimization, which will use the XA
connections from the pool. Can you tell me what your
observations are? I may be able to see if we can tune it.From our tests the XA driver too appear to make use of one connection only for the life of the transaction. There is a good document here explaining how it is ensured that only one connection is used - http://e-docs.bea.com/wls/docs81/oracle/trxjdbcx.html#1083132
Quoting from the above URL :
When a thread attempts to use a connection, the XA jDriver calls xa_open (and xa_start) to create the connection and associate it with the thread. After the database connection is created, the connection remains associated with the thread; the driver does not call xa_close. When the thread subsequently needs a database connection, it uses the same database connection associated with it, even though it appears to get and return a connection from the JDBC connection pool
I am not sure why you say the connections will be
blocked. One connection will be blocked only if you are > using non-XA driver to setup the pool, until the
transaction commits. For XA there is no need to reserve
the same connection for the transaction.Probably my understanding on this is incorrect and I need to read up. I was under the impression that - once a transaction begins, each connection used within that transaction, is enlisted as a part of that transaction and can not be used by in another transaction until the transaction commits or rollsback.
Thanks

How to disconnect the database connection using crystal report

Post Author: cp_pramodu
CA Forum: Crystal Reports
Hi All,
We have developed an application using .Net and Crystal Reports 10 for generating Adhoc reports from Business system (db sybase 12). We are using the below mentioned script for opening rpt files.
Try
       ReportDocument1.Load(sReportName)
       For Each table In ReportDocument1.Database.Tables
              ' Get the TableLogOnInfo object.
              logonInfo = table.LogOnInfo
              ' Set the server or ODBC data source name, database name,
              ' user ID, and password.
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.ServerName = sReportServerName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = DBName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.UserID = UserName
              logonInfo.ConnectionInfo.Password = Password
              ' Apply the connection information to the table.
             table.ApplyLogOnInfo(logonInfo)
Next
'Me.Cursor = Cursors.WaitCursor
Me.CrystalReportViewer1.ReportSource = ReportDocument1
'Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
Catch ex As Exception
'Response.Write(ex.Message)
Finally
Me.Cursor = Cursors.Default
'ReportDocument1.Close()
'ReportDocument1.Dispose()
End Try
Each time user opens the report a new connection is established to the database, can we disconnect the connection established from crystal reports, while closing crystal report. At the same time i want to setup an Idle time for these connections. In database level, i will not be able to set idle time in database level, as it affect our electronic channels.
Waiting for a reply.
Thanks & Regards,
Pramodu. C. P

Hi,
If you are reworking the application can you not build in the functionality to re-establish a connection if there is a failure? That is, a submission from the application server to the database server detects a failure, etc. and then re-establishes the connection. If you need a more frequent check than during a user-initiated roundtrip, you may be best served by using the "dummy query" technique on some time interval.
From my understanding using HA Event Notification would require a RAC database (plus a multi-threaded application and services correctly configured on the RAC-side).
In the documentation I see this:
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14250/oci09adv.htm#sthref1495
"Applications must connect to a RAC instance to enable HA event notification."
In any case, this has the potential to be a bit complicated...

How to check the database connection using OCI

I am working on enhhancement of very old application developed using C and OCI. It has a background process which acts as a middleware for interaction of any other front end process with oracle database. Any processes, which needs to interact with database sends a request to background peocess and then it will execute a call to execute the stored procedures for performing requested operation (like select, update, insert) on table and will send the result back to respective process. So this process has to be always running in background and connected to branch database.
If branch database gets restarted or connection gets dropped due to some ad-hoc problem then the background process also has to be restarted manually. Because this process establishes the connection to branch database only once on start up and it does not have the intelligence to reconnect automatically in such scenario.
I am looking forward to build the intelligence in this process to automatically reconnect if connection with branch database is lost. But I am not familer with OCI, and I am not sure if there is any OCI call which can determine if my earlier connection is still available. Can any one please tell me if there is any other way to check the connection other than the execution of dummy query, then check if it gets executed properly and then do the actual query.
Thanks in advance,
Deeapk

How to create database connection using DB2Driver in JDeveloper 10.1.2.1.0?

I am trying to create a JDeveloper/Data Connection using com.oracle.ias.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver. The driver is registered from a User Libraries: DataDirect JDBC. I have the following class path for the library:
E:\DataDirect\3.4\lib\YMdb2.jar;E:\DataDirect\3.4\lib\YMbase.jar;E:\DataDirect\3.4\lib\YMutil.jar
I have no trouble configuring the connection but when I test it and I got No suitable driver Vendor code 0. Whats wrong? I have successfully created several database connections using Oracle thin driver. This is first time I am using a third party driver. Has any one successfully create a database connection using the com.oracle.ias.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver?

Hi
Since the error points to the unavailability of the driver class,can you double check your library claspath entries again.
I just tried a DB2 connection using the following properties and the connection went through fine:
Driver class name: com.oracle.ias.jdbc.db2.DB2Driver
URL: jdbc:merant:db2://<host_name>:50000;DatabaseName=SAMPLE

How to create new database on Oracle 10g

Hi All,
Can any one tell me how to create new database on oracle 10g.
Thanks in Advance for your help.

again some confusion here.....
u said u need a new database in your first post and now you saying u need a new schema..
one database has many schemas(users)..... ex: scott,sys,system are few of them...
now it depends you need seperate database for test,dev environment - this is in the case u have many schemas under each database and many tables(objects) under each schema.
OR
You just need a separate schema (in same db) for test,dev environment...where in you will have multiple tables in each schema...U need to know the dba credentials of the db to create a new schema.
ideally u need to have different database...You can create one with out sys/system(oracle users) password as these passwords are db dependent.
what you need is access to the any machine where server is installed(can be the same mc where you have your dev db or a diff machine) and that will be the machine where your db will be installed (can do it through database configuration assistance),ofcourse you will need windows authentication for this.
so you login to the same machine or access it from your machine using remote login.
I hope that is clear.Hope i am not listing things that you already know..Just did it coz of confusion between db and schema

how i can make web application by using oracle form 6i , indetail .
A.R

indetail .As Andy Millman might observe, you're having a laugh. This is a big topic, far exceeding what it is reasonable to expect people to help out with in a Forum. Do you not have the 6i documentation?
OTN has a site for upgarding to web forms. Although it is mainly focussed on moving to 9i/10g a lot of the issues and solutions apply to moving a 6i client/server app to web deployment. For further help there is a Forms.

Unable to register a new cloud connection in Oracle SQL Developer

Please somebody can assist me how could I connect the new cloud connection
I have used the port 22 and SFTP user and host are all ok .. but the error which comes up when i try to connect is
"Peer not authenticated"
Please help!!

Hi Ankur,
Thanks for the updates. You've mentioned you're on Windows - is it 32-bit or 64-bit?
+> I want to confirm that the user id asked in the popup for the new cloud connection , needs to be made in the Application Express in the online database service or is it User Id of the administrator?+
As mentioned in the white paper:
"In order to perform these steps, the data load process uses two different users – one user defined for the Secure FTP (SFTP) site, and another defined to load the data in the Database Cloud Service. You can use any user who is a Service Administrator or Database Developer to load data into your Database Cloud Service. The SFTP user for your Database Cloud Service is identified in the My Services portal1 for the Database Cloud Service in the section label Service SFTP Details."
So the user login credentials you enter in the popup for the new Cloud connection should be "any user who is a Service Administrator or Database Developer". In the 'Welcome to Oracle Cloud' email that you received upon trial registration, the user defined under the 'Identity Domain Account Details' is your default Service Administrator. However, you can of course create additional Service Administrator users or indeed Database Developer users via the Identity Console. Log in to MyServices Administration URL (you'll find the URL in the 'Welcome to Oracle Cloud' email that you received upon trial registration), then select your database service, and click on the Identity Console button on the Services page. This will launch the IDM console, where you can manager the users and roles for your database service. To add a new Database Developer user, for example, you can do the following in Identity Console:
1) Click 'Manage Users' link from the left hand side bar
2) Click Search. You should then see a list of the existing users for your service. Among those users, you'll see your SFTP user. Ensure that you have reset the password for your SFTP user, as per the documentation.
3) Click Create, and enter the credentials for a new user
4) Upon successful creation of your new user, click 'Manager Roles' link from the left hand side bar
5) Click Search. You should then see a list of available roles for your service.
6) Select 'database Database Developer' from the list of available roles, and then click Assign.
7) In the Grant Role popup dialog, and click Search.
8) From the list of available users, select the new user you created in step 3 above. You'll now have a new Database Developer, whose credentials can be used in the creation of a Cloud Connection in SQL Developer.
Now in SQL Developer, ensure that your new Cloud Connection uses the following settings:
Database Username: <enter name of user created in step 3 above OR enter your Service Administrator name>
Database URL: <copy the "Service Home" URL from your 'Welcome to Oracle Cloud' email, and paste it here> e.g. https://database-trial_name.oraclecloudapps.com/apex/
SFTP Username: <enter name of your SFTP user, which you'll find on the Overview page in MyServices> ** you should have already reset the password for this user via Identity Console
SFTP Hostname: <enter the SFTP host name, which you'll find on the Overview page in MyServices>
SFTP Port: 22
When you attempt to connect to that new Cloud Connection, enter the username/password combo for the user you defined in 'Database Username' of the connection properties. My tests are on Windows 32-bit, and I've experienced no issues connecting using either my Service Administrator or Database Developer login credentials. So I'd be interested to find out whether you're running on 64-bit, which could potentially explain why you're seeing different results. Apologies if the above is overkill, but I figured it was worthwhile outlining the information for other interested parties viewing this thread too.

New database connection failed with oepe

Hi everybody,
@http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E27086_02/help/oracle.eclipse.tools.common.doc/html/install.html#install_oepe
Oracle Enterprise Pack for Eclipse Installation Guide says:
"You can install OEPE using any of the following ways:
Download, and then unzip OEPE plugins directly into the Eclipse dropins folder and restart Eclipse."
This is what I have done,
then when I create a new database connection, and I press the button "test connection" i got a pop up saying "Ping failed" giving details:
java.lang.ClassNotFoundException: oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver

Did I miss something?

The documentation is out of date. The unzip to dropins method is no longer supported. The OEPE zip you downloaded is actually an archived repository. You can follow the instruction for installing using Eclipse Update Manager and point to the downloaded zip instead of the online repository.
I will follow up to get the docs updated.
