Importing from Oracle Designer

Hi, I am looking to migrate from Oracle Designer. We have 2k plus objects in a enterprise model supporting multiple applications. When following the dialogs to import into DM 3.1, I connect to the repository fine but when I select our Logical application system, I am not seeing all our entities. What is the basis for selecting entities to present? Do they need to be checked in? We have some that are not yet versioned that do not show up and I can see them not being there but others that are versioned do not show up. I think most of these are checked out but I see some that are checked out as well. Any ideas, thks.

Yes they need to be checked in if they are versioned.

SQL Developer Data Modeling - import from Oracle Designer Model

Hi,
I do want to try to import model from a Designer repository.
The first step is to create connection to the repository (9i version).
I have created the one, however any attempt to test the connection or to go to the next step simply finishes with error "4", without any valueable message.
Any idea or suggestion ?
Thanx.

A clarification of the Data Modeling feedback application and this forum. The developers are part of the SQL Developer development team, but as for all our features, each developer has a focus area, so the Data Modeling developers will tend to answer those questions. There will not be a separate Data Modeling forum, so once we're production all SQL Developer Data Modeling questions will be on this forum. We want to encourage all users to get into the habit of tagging posts. Having the posts tagged means that users can skip them if they're not their focus area and users can search using the tags. The more tags are used in all the forums the better. You may well find find the answers to your questions are outside this forum!
As SQL Developer Data Modeling in in its first early adopter phase, we have provide a feedback application, where users can provide feedback, log bugs and ask questions. We did the same for SQL Developer before it's initial production release and found this to be very useful for the product.
I'm happy for "How To" questions to be on this forum, as the answers benefit the broader community.

Utility for migrating Domain Definitions from Oracle Designer to JHeadstart

Hi,
I am currently involved in the migration of a pretty substantial application, developed with Oracle Designer’s Web Server Generator, to the Oracle ADF technology stack, using JHeadstart. You know I am a big fan of JHeadstart for a number of reasons, but this particular application is ideally suited for JHeadstart (or I should say the other way round of course). JHeadstart and ADF can do everything Web PL/SQL Toolkit and the Web Server Generator can do - and much, much more. So both end users and developers of this application stand to gain from the migration.
However , due to special technical limitations in the Web Server Generators and the inventive hand-crafted work-arounds, I can use the JHeadstart Designer Generator migration tool only for th 60% really simple maintenance modules. The other 40% is better off with building from scratch.
There is one piece of information in Oracle Designer that is quite useful to me - that is the Domain Definitions. The sets of allowable values that power the dropdownlists and radio groups is needed in JHeadstart’s Application Definition file, and the current edition of the JHeadstart Designer Generator does not allow the migration of Domains (only complete modules are supported).
In this article: http://technology.amis.nl/blog/?p=1352 is describe a way to migrate a selected set of domain definitions from Oracle Designer to JHeadstart. This approach works for all releases of JHeadstart - from the early beginnings back in 2002 to the latest 10.1.3 release.
best regards,
Lucas

Probably better to ask / confirm this on the Warehouse Builder forum, but ....
I believe that OWB will always indicate a default value for NotNull columns. It might also do this for value-constrained columns (one where you have set Allowable Values directly for the column or for a domain associated to the column). In a normal situation, most column definitions are NullAllowed, but if you're doing some simple test runs and have nothing but key columns and some rudimentary data columns then you might have inadvertantly caused this situation.
hope this helps

Importing and Oracle Designer Model

The earlier build works.

Datapump Network Import from Oracle 10.2.0 to 10.1.0

I have self-developed table bulk copy system based on dmbs_datapump API. It is pretty stable and worked very well for a long time on many servers with oracle 10.1.0. But some days ago we have installed new oracle server with oracle 10.2.0 and have noticed, that our system can't copy tables from new server to another servers. After some time of debugging we got description for our situation... dbms_datapump.open() call is failing with "ORA-39006: internal error" exception. dmbs_dapatump.get_status() returns more detailed description: "ORA-39022: Database version 10.2.0.1.0 is not supported."... We're really disappointed... what we can do to use dbms_datapump.open on 10.1.0 to copy table from 10.2.0?
P.S. We have tried to use different values (COMPATIBLE, LATEST, 10.0.0, 10.1.0) for version parameter of open()... but without luck...
Please, help, because we can't upgrade such many old servers to 10.2.0 and we really need to use this new server...
Thanks in advance,
Alexey Kovyrin

Hello,
Your problem is about the Character Set.
WE8ISO8859P1 stores character in *1* byte but AL32UTF8 (Unicode) uses up to *4* bytes.
So, when you Import from WE8ISO8859P1 to AL32UTF8 you may have the offending error ORA-12899.
To solve it, you may change the option of the Datatype of your column. And choose the option CHAR
instead of BYTE (the default), for instance:
VARCHAR2 (100) --> VARCHAR2(100 CHAR)Then, you could import the data.
You may also change the parameter NLS_LENGTH_SEMANTICS to CHAR.
alter system set nls_length_semantics=char scope=spfile;Then, restart your database.
NB: Although the parameter nls_length_semantics is dynamic you have to restart the database so
that it's taken into account.
Then, you create the Tables (empty) and afterwards you run your Import.
Hope this help.
Best regards,
Jean-Valentin

Import from Oracle 8.1.6-7 to 8.1.5

Hi folks
I'm having this problem: a software supplyer from our company converted to us their proprietary database used inside a HR management system to an Oracle DB. They send to us the dmp file, but when we try to import we've got this:
IMP-00010: not a valid export file, header failed verification
IMP-00021: operating system error - error code (dec 2, hex 0x2)
I checked at the raw dump file it was generated with EXPORT:V08.01.06F. In our company we use Oracle 8.1.5 whose export produces at top EXPORT:V08.01.05. Does anybody know if is it possible to download only import from above version and make it work? Suggestions are welcome...
null

We have the same problem ?
Is there a solution in the meantime ?
TIA!

Connecting from Oracle designer 2000 Forms 4.5 to 9i

Hi,
a)We have installed Oracle designer 2000 and are able to connect to a 9.0.1.0.0 database.
The Versions we have used are as follows:-
Forms [32 Bit] Version 4.5.7.1.6 (Production)
Oracle9i Enterprise Edition Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production
With the Partitioning option
JServer Release 9.0.1.0.0 - Production
Oracle Toolkit Version 2.3.6.9.0 (Production)
PL/SQL Version 1.2.1.5.0 (Production)
Oracle Procedure Builder V1.5.6.15.3 - Production
Oracle Virtual Graphics System Version 2.1.10.7.0 (Production)
Oracle Tools GUI Utilities Version 1.2.0.10.0 (Production)
Oracle Multimedia Version 2.0.7.9.0 (Production)
Oracle Tools Integration Version 1.2.0.4.0 (Production)
Oracle Tools Common Area Version 2.0.0.9.0
Oracle CORE Version 3.5.2.0.0 - Production
b)We are able to connect from SQL 3.1 to a 9.0.1.0.0 database also.
1)Does Oracle support this configuration?
2)Will my Oracle 4.5 forms builder be able to use all the objects available in the 9.0.1.0.0 database?
3)Is there a possibility that my forms will not run properly because of this configuration?

Strictly speaking we only certify the upgrade from 6i to 9i, however, the technical details of going from 4.5 directly to 9i are the same and in many cases should work as going from 6i to 9i.

Stacked canvas from Oracle designer 10g

Hi,
I want to create a stacked canvas using designer 10g, how can I do it?
thanks.
Hichem

Since you ask this question inside the Oracle Designer Headstart forum, you have Oracle Headstart. Inside Oracle Headstart there is a demo application you can have a look inside the demo application. For instance module hsd0016f will show you a stacked tab canvas inside a tab canvas.

Problems from oracle designer to database creation

"has no role cannot regenerate"
this is specific to the primary keys of each table
has anyone come across this before? any ideas guys?
Andy

I think this belongs in another forum, but could you answer this question: Are you trying to generate database creation scripts by select Create Oracle Database in the DB Admin tab of the Design Editor?

Error while table Import from Oracle (OBIEE server 64bit & Client 32bit)

Hi All,
Problem : ODBC/OCI Connectivity Issue between OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 (64-bit) server and OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 Client (32-bit) local machine.
We have an OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1(64-bit) setup on a 64-bit ‘Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise’ machine.
OBIEE dev team members have 32-bit local machines.
OBIEE “Admin team member” (who will work on RPD) has OBIEE 11g client (BP1) installed on their *32-bit local machine*(which is common client software for 32/64 bit.)
Now, two ODBC connections were created on this 32-bit local Client machine, with OBIEE 11g client installed on it.
One with “BI server driver” for connection to OBIEE server machine(64-bit) to open RPD and other with “Oracle database driver” to connect to the Oracle database on 64-bit machine, to import tables.
With this setup done, I am able to open the RPD in online mode and view the existing sampleapp related objects present in it.
But when I try to import metadata from OBIEE client admin tool using OCI or ODBC, it gives an error that “Connection fails! “
I have the required tns entry in my tnsnames.ora file and I am able to connect to this database from the local client machine, using sqlplus.
Kindly let me know if there are any restrictions in using this type of a setup combination of 32-bit and 64-bit machines for OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BP1 setup.
If not then, what steps are to be followed to do the setup btw 64-bit OBIEE server and 32-bit OBIEE client to make table import working.

Hi Veeravalli.. Thanks for your response.
I have my tns file residing in both the location you mentioned on the server machine. (64-bit)
•     {Oracle_BI1}\network\admin directory
•     {oracle_common}\network\admin directory
And also in the below Oracle_home path of oracle_client in the local machine. (32-bit, Oracle 11g R2 database client)
•     {oracle_Home}\product\11.2.0\client_1\network\admin
Also, I have used the full expanded tnsnames as you mentioned. Still issue persists.
When I use , “DataDirect 6.0 ODBC Oracle Wire Protocol” driver, for creating the system DSN and try to import tables from OBIEE client admin tool on local client machine, the connection happens and table list comes up, but it’s an SAP product and hence it throws a msg to purchase the tool to go further with table import.
I am wondering if I any other configuration steps need to be carried out, with the ODBC/OCI set up between 64-bit OBIEE server and 32-bit OBIEE client.
Also, the source database that I am trying to connect to is yet again on a 64-bit machine(Oracle 11g R2).
Please suggest.

Oracle 11g- Straing behaviour of query after importing from Oracle 10g

Hi,
I have a table in Oracle 10g as follows:
Create Table xyz (col1 varchar2(50), col2 varchar2(50));
With following Data
Col1     Col2
A     320
A     110
A     290
A     380
B     ABC
B     256
B     LMN
I am running following Query
select * from xyz
Where Col1='A' and Col2=110
It works fine. But when I export this table and import it in Oracle 11g. It says invlid identifier.
But if I enclose 110 in single quotes. It works fine.
Also If I recreate this table in Oracle 11g like
Create table xyz1
as select * from xyz;
Now alos I am able to run this query smoothly.
select * from xyz1
Where Col1='A' and Col2=110
What is wrong exporting this table from 10g to 11g.
Any comments/suggestion??
Aarbi

The check in your where clause
Col2=110Is comparing a string (Col2 is defined as a VARCHAR) with a numeric literal, so there will be an implicit conversion taking place from character to number. The query then fails due to the B LMN row when 'LMN' fails number conversion.
I'm guessing there was there an index on the table in your 10g installation which would allow the query to be satisfied without checking the B ABC or B LMN rows but is not present or not used in the 11g installation so a full table scan results in an attempt to convert 'ABC' and 'LMN' to a number. Check the explain plans.
Or it could even just be a difference in the order in which the two conditions in the where clause are evaulated between the two versions.
The solution, as you have already found is to do a string comparision
Col2='110'Edited by: Cyn on Dec 7, 2009 12:38 PM

Data Import from Oracle Dump to SQL Server(2000/2005)

Hi Friends,
I'm using Oracle 10g.
I've a scenario.
I've Oracle Dump file. Now i would like import in SQL Server(2000/2005).
Can any one suggest me how to do this?
Any idea,clue will be highly appreciated.

I think you will need to import the data into SQL Server from an ASCII flat file using SQL Server DTS if avialable. You can use SQL Plus to extract the data outof Oracle into comma delimited flat files and then use SQL Server DTS load into the SQL Server database.

How to import from Oracle to ODI View query definition?

The scenario:
I have a View in Oracle database with name 'XV'.
When I loaded metadata from this Oracle database the 'XV' structure was imported too.
Is it possible to get in ODI the 'XV' query definition in format 'CREATE VIEW ... ' or 'SELECT * FROM'?
Thanks a lot for answers.

Still cannot connect.
The Administration Tool help suggests the tnsnames.ora is not required:
"For Oracle Database data sources, the data source name is either a *full connect string* or a net service name from the tnsnames.ora file. If you enter a net service name, you must ensure that you have set up a tnsnames.ora file within the Oracle Business Intelligence environment, in ORACLE_HOME/network/admin".
I've tried the tnsnames.ora route, but this still does not work. I created a tnsnames.ora file in <MW_HOME>\Oracle_BI1\network\admin. Is this correct?
I'm assuming that I don't need an Oracle client install on the same (Windows) PC that I've got Oracle BI 11g installed on. Is this correct?

Import from Designer crashes with IMAGE data type

Hello,
I'd like to report an issue with Data Modeler while importing from Oracle Designer. If you consider this a bug, please let me know if I need to do anything else to request a fix for it.
I've used the import > Oracle Designer Model tool to import an application model. The import runs fine for a while, then crashes with a message "There are errors in import - check log file".
The application to be imported has 509 domains, 963 entities to import.
The summary info displayed after the import (when I close the error message pop up) is:
All statements: 1472
Imported statements: 538
Failed statements: 0

I see the issue with the IMAGE data type in the log. The model to be imported does have domains and entities using this data type. The domain actually did get imported, but it shows as "Unknown" logical type, even though there is an Image type available in the Data Modeler type list. None of the entities using IMAGE got imported.
Please let me know if you can provide a fix or workaround for this (other than changing the format in Designer).
Thank you,
Beatriz.

Hello Beatriz,
definitely this is a bug. The problem with entities is not IMAGE data type it's supported there (it's overlooked for domains). The problem is volume information - Initial, Maximum, Average, Growth rate. No workaround for that.
Domain can be changed manually if it's just one affected.
