Migrating Existing ODBC based Application

I have an application that uses MFC/ODBC to connect to MS Access 97. I am looking into migrating it to an Oracle Backend.
Whats the best way/practise for such an effort.
What does it entail?

Oracle has a product called the Oracle Migration Workbench that would be useful in migrating the database backend. The MFC application should mostly work without significant changes-- it's mostly a matter of testing to figure out what the Access ODBC driver does differently than the Oracle ODBC driver and what impact that has on your application.
Once the application functionality is migrated, you'll hopefully have a large chunk of schedule to optimize your code & refactor your queries to take advantage of Oracle. This is the biggest hurdle in my eyes-- there are lots of things that work really well against 1 database that perform or scale poorly on another database.

  • I wish to migrate to web-based application from forms 6i

    Dear All,
    Please inform me the technique / tools to convert my designed forms (using 6i) to web based forms, so any user can easily use an application through web browser instead of developer client.
    I'll be grateful to you.

  • How to configure logins for ADF Jclient based application

    Hi,
    I have an existing Java swings based application and the user authentication in the application uses Oracle (database level) user id/pwd verification. This I achieve through creating a successful JDBC connection. I treat this connection as a global variable and use it through out the user session.
    Now I need to create some new functionality that needs to be developed using ADF Jclient. This functionality would be plugged into the existing swing based application.
    However as per the documentation that I've gone through so far, we need to have a connection created for BC4J project at the development time. This connection is used to create data bindings. If I eliminate the connection information from the project properties/ connection the ADF Jclient form does not launch. The process hangs at:
    mgr.loadCpx("DataBindings.cpx", map);
    Is their some way I can specify the connection attributes for the ADF Jclient forms through my application. I'm fairly new to ADF Jclient and BC4J so I'm assuming that I'm missing something here, but, I'm not sure where to find for this information. Please help.
    Regards

    Hi,
    The following How-To may be helpful.
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/10g/dynamicjdbchowto.html
    I believe your application user is the same as database user. Dynamic JDBC credential provider seems to be what you are looking for.
    In ADF, we separate application user from JDBC user. You could read more about JAAS and BC4J Security by looking up 'Security' or 'JAAS' in Help.

  • My firefox crashed when upload file on our web based application. This happen on two PC, even during firefox safe mode the problem still exist. But the problem

    Dear All,
    My firefox (version 23 on win 7) crashed when upload file on our internal web based application. This happen on two PC, even in firefox safe mode the problem still exist. So, my first conclusion the problem nothing to do with extension. here the crash ID https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/81220865-36c0-4e10-a484-6d27e2131023 and https://crash-stats.mozilla.com/report/index/86d2b779-9730-4d2c-b276-a86d42131023. I wonder if this happen because jquery modul in our web based application. But when I tried on my laptop, the problem dissapear. I tried to replicate same situation on different server, I mean I put the exact same application source to other server, never meet the same problem. Thus, I suspect may be it related to antivirus that installed in our network which is kaspersky. I am googling, never meet the clue.
    If you meet the same problem, please help me.
    I am so sorry for my poor english.

    The crashes are a problem with the winhadnt.dll file (OCular Agent from TEC Solutions Limited) as you can see in the crash reports.

  • Conversion of forms5.0 to web based application

    dear folks,
    i have an existing application which runs on forms 5.0. i want to
    convert it to a web based application. i do not want to rewrite
    the scripts.if some of you could tell me the details about how to
    go about it.

    I am not sure if there is any tool to do that.
    You can delete WebSphere specific xml files from ear/jar and open it in Weblogic's builder tool. Weblogic Builder is a GUI tool. Helps you assign values for deployment parameters, Transaction attributes, JNDI names and so on. Then you can generate deployment descriptors. Subsequently you can modify the descriptors as and when you want.

  • Web Based Application Single Sign on With Enterprise Portal

    Good day Developers,
    My question is really a two part question so forgive me in advance for asking in one post as I think they are relative to each other. My project is currently exlporing the creation of functionality that will allow the following:
    1. We want to allow a secure Web Based application possessing the abilitiy to auithenticate the user into Enterprise Portal and by passing the login screen to get to a landing page/iview in our Enterprise Portal instannce.
    2. We want the abilitity to perform a check of the user and create the user in the enterprise portal on the fly if they do not already exist.
    So far in my research I've come across tools and white papers mentioning the use rof oAuth and OpenID. Is that the right way to tackle these two items. Thanks for your help in advance.
    JD

    Hi
    1. You can do SSO between you application and portal using Verisign or third party authentication tool. I am not pretty sure how landing page and all will work as you mentioned.
    As portal is web based, you can deply your application in portal server. So that you will not need any other authentication tool.Also you can save effort , cost.
    2. By deploying application in portal also you do not have to concentrate on User management, which is itself a huge effort you have to put. Else you can go for third party tools like Identity management or ADS.

  • 2010 to 2013 migration problem with service application

    With a 3rd party migrator we are able to migrate a simple 2010 site to 2013. By simple UI level approach sites are migrated easily. But we have a large project where we have good amount of work done on various service applications. 
    We are facing problem to migrate entire 2nd SP2010 application with service applications. Do any one has idea of smooth migration of large service applications to 2013 with avepoint or quest tools?
    If faced same problem then share steps.

    The Microsoft guidance for upgrading a SP2010 farm to SP2013 is in the link below. Most of your existing SharePoint out of the box service applications can be upgraded also. This includes User Profile Service Application and the Search Service Application.
    Custom service applications most likely not upgradeable. Hopefully the guidance was followed so there should be no problems.

    Hi,
    You can use export/import or transportable tablespaces to migrate the database.

    How long the task would take? Depends on the hardware resources you have. The best practice is to try this on a test instance first.
    The application should work as expected once the task is completed.

  • Restoring a db without an existing odbc connection

    Hey all,
    I'm looking for a way to restore a db as the first db in an
    application I have written. The app normally restores DBs as a way
    of automatically creating new sites, but if this is a new box and
    code determines the main manager DB doesn't exist, how does one
    restore a DB... without an existing ODBC to connect to the DB
    server through? I'm talking specifically about SQL Server on
    Win2003.
    Any advice?

    Ok. I gave up on trying to restore through code. Did it
    manually and have what I think is a working DB, but I cannot
    connect through CF
    Connection verification failed for data source: NemoManager
    java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC
    Driver]Error establishing socket. Connection refused: connect
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:

    Any ideas? Do I have to update Java or something? Sorry, I'm

    As I understand the JavaFX 2.0 technology, it provides a rich interface to client or desktop apps written in Java. JavaFX 2.0 runs on the JVM, the API it provides is a Java API. You can access the API from any JVM language, so you can use Java to develop your applications (which is what i would advise when
    first starting using JavaFX). But you can also use other JVM languages for applications development if desired (eg. JRuby, Scala, Groovy, etc).
    Can you take an existing Web-based j2ee application and embed Java FX 2.0 technology in its jsp pages You can embed a JavaFX application in an html web page which was created using jsp (or any other web page assembly) technology. This works in much the same way as embedding a Flash App in an html page. See http://docs.oracle.com/javafx/2.0/deployment/deployment_toolkit.htm for documentation on how to do this.
    to provide a richer interface, better user experience to overcome issues associated with the stateless nature of http and the UI controls utilized in web-based applications?JavaFX is one technology which could be used to do this, other technologies would be things like AJAX, Flash, Silverlight embedded in web pages or standalone applications written in JavaFX or other client technology. Essentially if you are doing this, you are developing what used to be known as a client-server application where some of the logic and control happens on the client and some happens on the server and you have some kind of network communication layer between them, as referred to by gimbal2.

  • To convert applet-based application?

  • Client/Server to Web-Based application Conversion

    Hi! Everyone,
    I have couple of questions for you guys.
    Our Client had recently upgraded Forms 4.5 to 6i to move from Client/Server based application to Web based application.
    They are using Forms Server 6i Patch Set 1, OAS 4.0.8.1, Windows NT Service Pack 5 and Oracle 7.3. They are facing the following error every now and then, when they run the forms,
    "FRM-92100: Your connection to the server was interrupted. This may be the result of a network error or a failure on the server.You will need to re-establish your session."
    Please let me know what might be causing the above error. The only problem i can think about might be Oracle 7.3. If i am right only Oracle 8 and above supports Forms 6i.
    Can anyone let me know some tips and/or techniques to upgrade Forms 4.5 to 6i. If there are any important settings/steps which we might have over looked during the upgrade, please list them.
    Any kind of help is greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,

    Dear sampathdevunuri kumar,
    You may develop the addon based on SDK DIServer for required function.
    The DI Server is an extension of the DI API and supports all its objects. It is intended for high-volume data integration, where numerous client connections must be managed simultaneously and optimized for speed. It is also suitable where Web-services architecture is preferred.
