Linking Siebel Sample DB and SQL Server

Hi Gurus,
I have installed siebel in my laptop for learning purposes and i want to query the Sample DB in the process. Can anyone tell me how to link the sample DB and SQL Server 2008, so that i can query the sample db in the similar the way i query a normal siebel database server.
I already tried to create a linked server in SQL Server 2008 using Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC drivers, but its throwing errors. Is it possible to create a linked server for sample DB.
Please let me know if there is any other way to query the sample DB

In the BIN directory you can find dbisqlc.exe.
Fill in the login credentials (SADMIN/SADMIN), don't set the ODBC, but go to the next tab and browse to the sample db.
It could be that you don't see it until you set the file filter to all files.

  • Which version of crystal reports can link to Windev 14 and SQL server 2008 applications

    I am developing an application with windev 14 and sql server 2008, i would like to know which version of crystal report can i use?

    Hi GS,
    Move to .NET SDK forum.
    I don't know how CR for Visual Studio will integrate into WinDev but to get the installer for VS 2010/2012/2013 go to this page:
    SAP Crystal Reports, developer version for Microsoft Visual Studio: Updates & Runtime Downloads
    It's the runtime for CR 2011 or 2013 now.
    As for SQL 2008 you need to install the Client tools and when creating reports use the SQLNCLI10.dll as the client DB driver for ODBC or OLE DB.

  • How to create database link between oracle and SQL Server

    Hello Everyone,
    Here i have Oracle Database 9i and SQL Server 2005 databases.
    I have some tables in sql server db and i want to access from Oracle.
    How to create a database link between these two servers
    Thanks,

    Thanks for Everyone,
    I was struggle with this almost 10 days....
    I created Database link from Oracle to SQL Server
    Now it is fine.........
    Here i am giving my servers configuration and proceedure how i created the db link...@
    Using Generic Connectivity (HSODBC) we can create db link between Oracle and SQL server.
    Machine (1)
    DB Version : Oracle 9.2.0.7.0
    Operating System : HP-UX Itanuim 64 11.23
    IP : 192.168.0.31
    Host : abcdbt
    Machine (2)
    Version : SQL Server 2005
    Operating System : Windows server 2003 x86
    IP : 192.168.0.175
    Host : SQLDEV1
    User/PW : sa/abc@123! (Connect to database)
    Database : SQLTEST (exsisting)
    Table : T (“ T “ is the table existing in SQLTEST database with 10 rows)
    Prerequisites in Machine (2):
    a)     Oracle 10g software
    b)     User account to access SQL Server database (sa/abc@123!)
    c)     Existing SQL Server Database (SQLTEST)
    d) Tables (testing purpose) (T)
    Steps:
    1)     Install Oracle 10.2.0.1 (Only SW,No need of database) *(Machine 2)*
    2)     Create a DSN where your windows Oracle 10g SW resides *(Machine 2)*
    Control panel >> Administrative Tools >> Data Source (ODBC) >> System DSN ADD
    You can follow this link also.....
    http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/3442661/Making-a-Connection-from-Oracle-to-SQL-Server.htm
    I created DSN as
    DSN name : SQLTEST
    User : SA/abc@123! (Existing user account)
    Host : 192.168.0.175 (machine 2)
    Already I have 1 database in SQL Server with the name SQLTEST
    You can create DSN with different name also (not same as db name also)
    3)     Create a hsodbc init file in $ORACLE_HOME\hs\admin *(Machine 2)*
    Create init<DSN NAME> file
    Ex: initSQLTEST
    Copy inithsodbc to initSQLTEST
    And edit
    initSQLTEST file
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = SQLTEST    <DSN NAME>*
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = OFF*
    save the file....@
    4)     Configure Listener.ora *(Machine 2)*
    LISTENER_NEW =
    (DESCRIPTION_LIST =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = 192.168.0.175)(PORT = 1525))

  • OraOledb, Linked Servers and SQL Server 2005 issues

    Some issues I've come across when using SQL Server 2005 (and SQL Server Express 2005), the OraOLEDB provider (10.2.0.1) and a linked Oracle database (8.1.7.4.0 64-bit)
    1) You must set the OraOledb.Oracle\AllowInProcess value to 1 to allow the OraOledb provider to run in SQL Server's process. Without doing this I receive an 'unspecified error' from the OLE DB provider when attempting to run a query
    2) When running a ' select * ' query across a linked server using the provider, I receive the following error: Msg 9803, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    Invalid data for type "numeric". I can, however, select all of the columns by name and the query completes (no error). Sometimes the 'select *' query returns a few rows before the error, sometimes it doesn't. The Microsoft Provider for Oracle does not have this problem

    Okay... I've got a Win2K3 Std Ed server (x64) running 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. I've installed the Oracle 10g 10.2.1 full client and admin tools, added two named services via the NetConfig assistant, and successfully set up (and tested) a connection via the ODBC Administrator to an Oracle database.
    Now... when I try to create a new connection manager in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services, the OLEDB provider for Oracle can't be found, and when I try to manually add an underlying OLEDB connection to the database, SQL Server reports:
    Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine.
    Does anyone know what I need to do to see my ODBC Server data connections in SQL Server 2005 (64 bit)? I don't have this issue on my 32-bit SQL Server 2005 servers.

  • Oracle and SQL Server Database Link errors

    I am having following error messages while setting up the ODBC connection. I want to access SQL Server tables from within Oracle8i. I have followed all the instruction of Oracle Generic Connectity document and have tested ODBC connection with ODBCPING as well as with TNSPING. Have created Database Link also within Oracle for SQL Server. But when I access the SQL Server table from within Oracle I get the following error messages.
    ORA-12500: TNS:listener failed to start a dedicated server process
    Could any body suggestion the solution please.
    Thanks and regards,

    There is a Heterogenous Services/ Generic Connectivity forum that is probably going to have a lot more people familiar with these issues than you'll find in this forum. I would suggest posting over there.

  • How can I connect to Oracle and SQL server at the same time?

    I have been trying to find a way to connect to Oracle Database through the developer 2000 and SQL server at the same time. I need to return some data from Oracle Database and some from the Sql Server Database. And update both through SQL. I find there is such a thing as the Oracle Transparent Gateway for SQL server. I can't find it on any of my CD's or through OTN downloadable files. If anyone can point me where to get this. Or tell of another way this can be accomplished I would appreciate it. TIA.

    As far as I know you have 3 options depending on your specifications. I don't think option #3 will work if you need to actually join a
    SQL Server table to an Oracle table.
    1. Oracle Transparent Gateway. I haven't used the Oracle Transparent Gateway but my understanding is that Oracle gateways are
    separate purchased products from Oracle. I've never seen any free/development versions of it anywhere. You'll need to contact
    your Oracle sales rep about it.
    2. Heterogeneous Connectivity. There's something called Heterogeneous Connectivity that could work for you - depends on what
    version of Oracle you're on and what OS. You basically set up an ODBC data source on the Oracle server and modify the listener.ora
    and tnsnames.ora files. You can then create a database link to SQL Server just like you would to any other Oracle database. You can
    check your Oracle documentation for how this works. There's also some very good documents on Metalink that tell you how to do this
    as well as a Heterogeneous Connectivity forum on this site.
    3. Use the exec_sql package available in Developer 2000. This allows you to open and execute cursors to remote databases within
    Developer. We have an account validation process that uses this - when a person enters an account number in a form while logged
    into Oracle it validates the account is valid in our main accounting DB2 database. We also pull HR information from DB2 into Oracle
    this way. If you're using Forms 6i exec_sql is a built-in command, in Forms 5.0 and 5.5 you have to add it as an attached library to
    the form. I think you also need the OCA options installed from the Developer software to have access to the library in Forms 5.0 and
    5.5. The library will be in the $ORACLE_HOME\oca20\plsqllib directory for these versions. The Developer documentation should have
    additional information.

    I'm getting the above error for DB links between Oracle 10.2 and SQL Server 2008 R2. But the same, when configured for MS SQL server 2000 works fine without any issues.
    Please advise me to rectify the error. We've been working for the last couple of weeks.
    Regards,
    Sunil

    Sunil,
    You don't need an Oracle ODBC driver.
    The way it works is that in the gateway init<sid>.ora file, in your case initTelemetryDB1.ora, the parameter HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO points to a system DSN. This DSN should then be configured to use an ODBC driver to connect to the non-Oracle database. So, in your setup when you want to access the SQL*Server 2008 database then the DSN should use an ODBC driver that can connect to a SQL*Server 2008 database. If you still use the initTelemetryDB1.ora file for the connection then the TelemetryDB1 DSN should be configured to access the SQL*Server 2008 database.
    However, there are a couple of problems with your actual setup -
    - the configuration you have - 10.2 RDBMS on a Sun machine and HSODBC on Windows - is not supported. HSODBC should only be used from a RDBMS that is in the same ORACLE_HOME as HSODBC.
    - 10.2 HSODBC is now desupported and has been replaced by the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) and the configuration you want is supported. That is because unlike HSODBC the DG4ODBC gateway can be installed standalone with a RDBMS being installed.
    I recommend that you download and install 11.20.2 DG4ODBC on your Windows machine in a new Oracle_home and access that from the 10.2 RDBMS on Sun - which is a supported configuration. But to do this, you will need to apply either the 10.2.0.4 or 10.2.0.5 patchset to your RDBMS.
    There is more information in the following note available on My Oracle Support (MOS) -
    Note.1083703.1 Master Note for Oracle Gateway Products
    The 11.2.0.2 DG4ODBC can be downloaded from MOS as patch and for the gateways on Windows 32-bit you just need to download -
    p10098816_112020_platform_4of6.zip
    However, to check the HSODBC ou need to confirm that the DSN used by HSODBC points to a System DSN configured to access SQL*Server 2008.
    Have a look at -
    Note 109730.1 How to setup generic connectivity (HSODBC) for Windows NT
    But remember this is not a supported version or configuration and you should be using Dg4ODBC.

  • Developing database views between Oracle and SQL Server tables

    I am on Oracle 10.2, my organization has many SQL Server databases as well and has now made
    SQL server as company standard so many new databases will be developed in SQL Server. It is of course
    not possible to convert all Oracle databases to SQL Server, so a mix environment will exist. Two questions:
    1.     Is it possible to develop database views in Oracle (10g in my case) which join Oracle tables with tables in SQL Server 2008? If yes, how. I have seen some heterogeneous connectivity setup to connect SQL Server to Oracle, but not sure whether it is possible to develop a database view across two databases.
    2.     I know it is not a SQL Server forum, but many DBA’s know both Oracle and SQL Server. Is it possible to develop views in SQL Server (SQL Server 2008 R2 in my case) which join Oracle 10g and SQL Server 2008 tables? I know in SQL Server, there is way to set up linked servers, but do not know whether it is possible to develop views.
    Thanks a lot for your insight.

    You can create views that join local Oracle tables and remote SQL Server tables. I'm pretty sure you can do the reverse as well but I haven't personally done it.
    However, I would be very concerned about the performance you'd get if you created that sort of view. You'd very frequently end up in a situation where Oracle has to pull all the data in the remote table across the database link in order to apply predicates and join the data locally. That could be disastrous from a performance standpoint.

  • It is compatible Obi 11g  with Windows Server  2012 and Sql Server 2012?

    Hi every
    Please help with two questions.
    1. - Obi 11g is supported on Windows Server 2012 and SQL Server 2012?
    There a compatibility matrix which mention compatibility with versions 2012?
    2. - is feasible to install Obi 11g in separate server and install weblogic on another server?
    I appreciate the prompt response
    Regards
    Pedro

    Hi Pedro,
    As of November 2012 Compatibility Matrix released by Oracle for OBI 11.1.1.x Windows 2012 and SQL Server 2012 were not supported. It was supported on 2008 Windows and SQL Server.
    We can have weblogic and OBI server's on 2 different machines. The approach is to opt software only install. the link below will give more details:

    Let me know if this helped.

  • Upgrade DTSX packages from VS 2010 with SQL Server 2008 to VS 2013 and SQL Server 2014

    Hello everyone,
    I’m very new to SSIS world. I’ve been assigned a task to upgrade the existing packages running in VS 2010 with SQL Server 2008 to VS 2013 and SQL Server 2014. And then submit the migration report to my client.
    On very quick search at Google, I've found the following link. It seems like I just need to open the existing SSIS project in VS 2013 and follow the wizard.
    https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc280547.aspx
    Can anybody please advise, are there any other things need to be taken care while doing this up gradation process?
    Please share your experience.
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Hello Arthur,
    Thank you for the response.
    I just got an access of the packages. They are of VS 2008 and not 2010.
    Do you know how to upgrade VS 2008 packaged to VS 2013?
    When I tried to open the solution file in VS 2013, it says "incompatible".
    Any help would be much appreciated.

  • Urgent:db link from oracle 10g to sql server 2000

    Hi
    I have a db link 10g from oracle to sql server 2000. This was created a couple of years ago. This is working.
    I have now created another db link from same oracle server to the same sql server but it is not working.
    But I am getting ORA-28500 and IM002 error
    .Please advise.
    I am unable to understand what is wrong because I have followed the hs odbc set up on this db link in the same way as I had done 2 yrs ago.
    Thanks
    Shailaja

    Just sorted the problem.
    Basically I am using HSODBC to communicate from Oracle (on windows 2003 64 bit)  to SQL Server.
    To do this, I need to create a ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server.
    HSODBC is a 32 bit application and hence we have to use the ODBC 32 bit driver when we create the ODBC connection.
    When I created the  ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server, I was using the ODBC 64 bit driver and hence the system was unable to find the data source name.
    I have now created ODBC connection from Oracle to SQL Server using the ODBC 32 bit driver and everything works fine now.
    No offence to anyone but as you all work using Oracle software , I was hoping a better response than some of the above responses. You can just say that you didnt understand the question or you dont know the reason why that happened.
    I just listed how the problem was sorted so that any one in future having the same problem can benefit.
