Migrating from Designer 1.3 (not 1.3.2) to 6i

I downloaded from technet the package to migrate from 1.3.2, but didn't get good results.
I followed the instruction on chapter 2 of the file (that became a CD after de-zipped).
I installed the application on a NT4 with Oracle Server 7.3.4 and Designer 1.3 without problems.
After that i followed instruction on CD performing a full user export (repository owner) and reimport from the admin utility of des 1.3, but in that phase i got some errors.
At this point i tryed to launch the upgrade of the repository from the admin utility of designer 6.0 (the version that is on the cd) but the application will fail 2 or 3 seconds after i started it.
I suspect there are problems with sql net or sqlplus 8.0.5 because in the dos windows that opens i can see that SQL Plus 8.0.5 is invoked, but the window closes istantaneosly and there is noway to watch the error messages reported.
I tryed to start SQL Plus 8.0.5 from the admin utility and it starts using the repository owner account without connect string specification as i normally do with SQL Plus 3.3.
There are no log (.lis or .log files) in wich i can watch the error.
If possible write me also directly to my mail [email protected]
Thanks in advance
Simone

Open a dos window. Enter plus80 then the username/password and connect string and ensure you can connect to the database. If not fix this by correcting the tnsnames entry.

  • Migration from Designer 6i to Designer 10gR2

    Hi,
    my customer has a productivity environment of the Designer 6i repository. We are also generating Forms 6i modules with the Designer 6i Forms Generator.
    Now we have to migrate the Database where the Designer 6i repository resides from 8i to 11gR2.
    Which scenario of migration is to choose ?
    I want to migrate without change, upgrade the current productivity environment.
    First of all have i to migrate the Designer from 6i to 10gR2 if i only want migrate the database version from 8i to 11gR2 ?
    Many Thanks in advance.
    Best Regards,
    Martin

    Martin,
    In a previous post you can find the following information: (Re: 11G compatibility
    Designer 10.1.2.5 is certified with an 11.1.0.6 DB
    You can get it to work with an 11.1.0.7 DB but you have to use the imp/exp tools from 11.1.0.6
    Designer is not certified with and 11R2 db.
    After upgrading the repository from 6i to 10gR2, there were some differences in the forms generated in 6i and 10gR2. So after upgrading you have to test your forms to see if they are working still the same.

    IS IT POSSIBLE TO MIGRATE FROM ORACLE DESIGNER 6.0 TO ORACLE DESIGNER 9i???

    Hi, all!
    May be somebody knows it or can help me to find this
    information in metalink:
    IS IT POSSIBLE TO MIGRATE FROM ORACLE DESIGNER 6.0 TO
    ORACLE DESIGNER 9i???Yes, you can migrate from Oracle Designer 6.0 to Oracle9i Designer. There is an extensive Migration Guide available on OTN that I recommend you read. The guide is under the Designer Collateral (http://otn.oracle.com/products/designer/Collateral.htm#Migration)
    There are two guides, one for Migrating from 6.0 to 6i and the second from 6.0 to 9i. These are essentially the same as there is no significant difference between 6i and 9i Designer.

  • Migration from Designer: wrong alias for used table/view in views

    Hello,
    I am using SQL DM version 3.3.0.744.
    when importing a view from Designer, a query is build with aliases for the used tables/views which are the same as the table/view name. When using a where clause in Designer, you refer to the alias of the table/view, like t1.col1= t2.cola. Here t1 and t2 are the aliases of the underlying tables.
    In Designer the following DDL is generated:
    CREATE OR REPLACE FORCE VIEW VIEW5
    (COL2
    ,COL1)
    AS SELECT T2.COLA COL2
    ,T1.COL1 COL1
    FROM TAB2 T2
    ,TAB1 T1
    WHERE t1.col1= t2.cola
    After importing the view in Data Modeler, the following DDL is generated:
    CREATE OR REPLACE VIEW VIEW5 ( COL2,
    COL1 )
    AS SELECT
    TAB2.COLA COL2,
    TAB1.COL1 COL1
    FROM
    TAB2 TAB2,
    TAB1 TAB1
    WHERE
    t1.col1= t2.cola ;
    So by using the wrong alias, the where clause is invalid and the query builder doesn't show the joins.
    The solution for this is to use the alias of the used table/view instead of the table/view name. Can you raise a bug for this?
    Thanks in advance,
    Joop

    Thanks for your time. I did all possible way, but still the same problem. I mean
    EXP 8... IMP 8
    EXP 8... IMP 9
    EXP 9... IMP 9
    Today I found that, NLS_LANG of two databases are different. Oracle 8i is : WE8ISO8859P1
    AND Oracle9i is : WE8MSWIN1252
    So I created a new database from scratch with Oracle 8i character set :WE8ISO8859P1 and then use imp9i to import the file. Still the same problem.
    Thanks,

  • [EA2] Migration from Designer to Datamodeler

    Hi,
    I'm planning to migrate our current Designer 10g-Repository to DataModeler 3.0 EA2.
    The current repository contains about yyyy objects, which is a number lots too big to check manually.
    It is very important, that no information will be "lost" in the migration project, neither new information which didn't exist in the Designer-Repository will be added.
    What I'm looking for is a way to compare the new and old repository automatically.
    Actually, I've thought about two different approaches to perform this check:
    1) Generate DDL-Scripts from within Designer and Data Modeler to compare them via an external Diff-Tool
    2) Avoid using the direct Designer-Import in Data Modeler, instead create DDL-Scripts in Designer and import them into Data Modeler, finally use the DDL-Export-function in Data Modeler to generate another DDL script, which represents the imported objects in Data Modeler. At last, they have to be compared via the Diff-Tool.
    Is there any other or better way to solve the problem with comparing the input and output?
    Thanks in advance,
    tensai

  • Migration from Designer 5.5 to 5.7 - problems

    Hello,
    I am new on this forum - I decided to signup and maybe find a solution to my problem.
    We were using in our company Adobe Designer 5.5 for creation of product labels. Recently we expanded to another location and purchased Adobe Designer 5.7 to produce labels.
    The problem is that during opening of old *.IFD files we got following messages:
    We are using HP 9050 and Zebra 140 for printing and old version of Designer - 5.5 - each time we opened a label that was meant to be print on a different type of printer asked us only if we want to change to the new printer, or revert to recently used one.
    This messages about coversion of fonts and barcodes are new for us and our doubt is that if we perform the conversion barcodes and fonts will not be readable. I know that there are config files for both fonts and barcodes but it is not very clear to me how to proceed in order to get exactly the same result in 5.7 as it was in 5.5. I guess simple copy of config files will not work.
    I know this may seem silly question for IT tech but right now we do not have IT support in our new division.
    Any help will be apreciated.
    Thanks!

    Hi Terki
    Every time you open Output Designer it will remember the printer driver (aka Presentment Target) from last session. In your case the Designer opens with driver 'hp9000' loaded. The template you are trying to open has been saved with driver 'zplz140'. Usually you would not get the first error message but rather an option to accept the change of driver or to revert to the original driver. I guess the reason you don't get this is that your Output Designer 5.7 has not been installed with driver 'zplz140'. There is a new set of Zebra drivers available so I guess this is the situation.
    You should check your Presentment Targets to see which drivers are available. In my attachment you will see that I have installed 3 legacy drivers for the very reason that we have many templates created with earlier versions of the Designer i.e. with drivers such as 'zplz140'.
    You have two options:
    install the 'zplz140' driver by running the Designer install
    start the Designer and change to one of the new Zebra drivers such as 'zplii300'. Make sure this driver has all the fonts you want to use. Now you can open your template and accept the change to a new driver
    Hope this helps
    Regards

  • Text from Design view is not visible on View

    I converted a project from RoboHelp 9 to 11, and discovered that several of my topics were changed.  Most of the changes were minor, e.g. spacing, bold type, bullets, etc., but I'm still having to go through each page, to make corrections.  Oftentimes, the "problems" don't show up until I View the topic, but up to this point I've been able to fix them.  However, one topic looks fine in Design view, but when I open it in View, almost all of the text is gone.  I've tried retyping portions, to see if it reappeared, but not all of it does.  Do you have any idea what is happening and how I fix it?

    LOL, you should probably check out my dear friend Peter Grainge's site
    RoboHelp Tour
    Here's the deal. In times past, the eHelp corporation had RoboHelp. And they created RoboHelp HTML long before HTML really was wildly popular. In those times it was necessary to implement some rather arcane workarounds to allow editing and a WYSIWYG environment.
    Time moves forward and Adobe are now the owners of the venerable RoboHelp. They modified the editor to be more standards compliant. And as you might imagine, that has the real possibility of somewhat munging things. Not that RoboHelp is munging code, but browsers are now a bit more persnickety about things. For example, that transparent thing was likely there in earlier browser versions and was ignored. So it's a combination of things.

  • New Imac Migrated from MacBook - TimeMachine will not Work

    I used the setup assistant and migrated my macbook over to a new IMac.   Everything A-Ok except Adobe (of course!) and Time Machine.
    I started a backup and it ran for over 24 hours.  Seems to just hang.  The back up is "In Progress".
    I tried to delete it to start fresh but Time Machine simply locks up.
    For the record I use Setup Assistant on the Migration.  Running current lion, I updated after migration.  I failed to mention that ITunes is not working, checking discussion board for that now.
    Please Help!
    Thanks  

    Sounds like you've got more than one problem. 
    If the backup won't cancel, see #D6 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
    What are you backing-up to (directly-connected external HD, Time Capsule, or what)?
    How much free space is on it?  
    A clue may be lurking in your logs.  Use the widget in #A1 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs.  Locate the backup in question, then copy and post all the messages here.

  • Migrating from Zune to iTunes (not happy)  - How do I sync multiple PCs & music purchases with single library?

    Apple community:
    Have been fighting the change from Microsoft Zune to Apple iPod/iTunes for various reasons for a few years, but have no choice but to move now.
    Under Zune I could have the Zune desktop software (similar to iTunes) installed on multiple computers (four to be exact). All four installations of the Zune software pointed to the SAME single media library (\\server\media\music), and all four computers had instant access to new media purchased across any of the four PCs.
    In other words, if I purchased a song on my home office PC downstairs, if I went upstairs to my personal PC, the song I purchased on the office PC was immediately available on the other 3 PCs in the house. It was extremely convenient being able to access the same media library and purchased songs across any PC, and not have to worry about manually searching for new media and/or re-syncing, etc on every PC each time. Whatever I did in Zune on one PC was instantly replicated on the others. Very simple.
    Apple iTunes on the other hand works completely different, so I'm trying to wrap my brain around how to achieve a similar solution with iTunes. I know that each iTunes installation uses a seperate library (file) for EACH PC (and then there are limits with how many computers can access a song at once, and other drawbacks).
    My question is this - Is there ANY solution that allows me to have iTunes installed on multiple PCs, and be able to instatly replicate any changes to the other PCs? In other words, I would like to be able to purchase a song on one PC, and have that song immediately show up on the other PCs in the house.
    The same goes for playlists. If I create a playlist on PC #1, can I edit the same playlist on PC #3, and then see those changes reflected on PC #1?
    I hope that doesn't sound too confusing. Thanks in advance for help/tips.

  • New MacBook Pro, migrated from old machine, iphone not recognized

    I just got a new MBP and everything seems to have transferred over just fine except iTunes doesn't recognize either my iPhone or my iPad when plugged in. I have deauthorized the old computer and authorized the new one, the backups from yesterday on the old machine show up under preferences > devices. The only real difference between the 2 machines is the one was on Leopard and the new one is Snow Leopard! Any ideas? Thanks!

  • URGENT - Migrating from 9i to 10g designer

    Hi All,
    I have installed new repository for Designer 10g (10.1.2.0.2) and
    I have started Migration from Designer 9i (9.0.2.80.10).
    I have error message from ckrau61 with cause:
    "No Designer Repository has been detected.
    Please check connection details and try again".
    I have checked TNSNAMES.ORA and haven't found any error. Other
    software works with old repository (9i) and i have checked the TNSNAMES.ORA on the server and not on the client ... Oracle is trying to build a db link and it is tested ok.
    The Migration from 9i is not supported in 10g?
    Help-me!!!!
    Any tips would be helpful. Thanks.

    You do not have to install a new Repository and "migrate" your data to upgrade from Designer 9i to Designer 10g. You just install the 10g Designer client, connect to your existing 9i Repository and "upgrade" it to 10g.
    Please refer to the "Upgrading a Release 6i, 9i, or 10g Repository" section in the Repository Installation Guide for complete details.

  • Problems when trying to migrate from 6.0 to 6i

    Hi,
    I'm having problems when trying to migrate a Designer 6.0 application to 6i.
    When I get to start the migration after having selected the source application, the process fails immediately after I've pressed the button.
    I'm getting the error: CDR-21244: This process has been aborted and the advice to check the log file. But no log file is created.
    I've read Note 234984.1 which gives two suggestions in this situation: That the ORACLE_HOME environment variable is unset, and that the LOG_DIRECTORY_RAU directory is writeable. Both is fulfilled in my situation. However it seems that the migration procedure tries to start imp - I've noticed a short flash with the command prompt screen - and when I try to start imp manually from the command prompt I get errors. I was able to fix this error by setting ORACLE_HOME and ORA_NLS33. But the defining ORACLE_HOME is "illegal" ref. Note 234984.1. Of course I tried to leave it anyway, but that didn't help neither: The migration still dies a quick and silent dead.
    So now I'm stucked. How can I carry on?
    The source is on version 6.0.3.5.0 running on 8.1.5, and the taget is version 6.5.92.1.9 running on 8.1.7.4.
    Regards, Michael

    The migration from Designer 6.0 to 6i requires careful planning. Please read the migration guide on OTN (http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/designer/index.html) for advice and to assist you with the migration.

  • Tools for converting from Designer 1.x to 6?

    I am about to work for a client that would like to convert their data model from Oracle Designer version 1.3 to version 6. They, of course, have both logical and physical models defined in the tool. They do not use Designer to create triggers or stored procedures, but they do store business rules in the repository (I'm not sure where. . .). The business rules serve as documentation for business analysts.
    Is Oracle Designer upwardly compatible from version 1? That is, will I be able to open the version 1 model with version 6 software? If not, are there tools that I might use to perform the transition?
    Thanks for the help,
    Tom

    Tom,
    For a technical migration from designer 1 to designer 6.0, there is extensive documentation in the 6.0 product how to do this. Your repostitory information will be available in designer 6 once you upgraded. If you used Headstart for designer 1.3.2, take a look at the Headstart migration issues for migration your template package (info can be found on OTN,(http://technet.oracle.com/products/headstart/)
    . If you want to migrate your business logic, you might want to take a look at the CDM RuleFrame option (whitepapers available on the website), a powerfull way to model and implement business logic in the server (with transaction level validation, no more mutating table problems etc.)

  • Unable to run Oracle Form Builder from Designer 10g

    I am using Windows XP with Oracle Designer 9.0.4.5. From Design Editor, I select Run -> Oracle Forms, nothing happen. I am able to open Form Builder manually (C:\ORACLE\904\bin\ifbld90.exe). After I generated a module (form) from Designer, I have to open the FMB manually from Form Builder. In Designer 9i, I am able to open Form Builder from Designer. Is this a bug for Designer 10g?
    Thanks,
    Jim

    Thanks for the response, Suresh,
    I believe this is an installation/configuration issue.
    I installed Oracle Developer Suite 9.0.4, which includes Form Builder, Report Builder, and Designer. System Path contains the ORACLE_HOME (c:\oracle\904\bin). I am able to start Form Builder from DOS command (ifbld90.exe). I am also able to start Report Builder (rwbuilder.exe) and Designer (des2k61.exe) from DOS. I am able to Run Oracle Report Builder from Designer, but just not Form Builder. I also checked the Windows registry settings and they seem alright to me.
    thanks,
