MS Access and ODI - without Windows

Has anyone managed to get ODI to use MS Access file (mdb) as a source on a non-Windows platform?
I'm using Ubuntu 8.10 and ODI 10.1.3.5.
I've installed MDBTools and unixODBC but am hitting a variety of errors consistent with it being a bit of a hack solution.
The kind of problems I get are:
- Trying to reverse engineer, I can get a list of the tables in the .mdb when I do Selective Reverse, but when I select one of them I get the error "The Technology or the Driver used does not support Reverse Engineering" "java.sql.SQLException: Column not found"
- If I define the table myself, when I try to view data I get the error "java.sql.SQLException: The result set type is not supported.".
Given that this is more an education in ubuntu/ODI than anything else, am I best off cutting my losses now?

This should help you . http://odiexperts.com/odi_jdbc_access/

  • How to access and control a Windows 7 computer from a Mac - long distance?

    I bought my parents their very first computer. They are 2000 miles away in another state. Currently I have the computer in my possession to "set-up" everything so it is as seamless as possible when they receive it.
    It is an HP with Windows 7. I have a mac. I would like to remotely access their Windows machine to help them when they need it - to be able to control theirs to show them how to do things and to do it for them if need be.
    Thank you for your time

    You are only as secure as web browsing to the LogMeIn website is (which appears to use HTTPS). If your login on that site is compromised, they will have a list of your computers that they can attempt to connect to. As long as you don't save the login credentials, they would then also need to know what username and password to use to connect to the computer. Granted, a little social engineering, and they could probably get some good ideas what to try for those, but if you chose to make your computers secure with complex and hard to guess passwords then it should be fine.
    I've been using LogMeIn from my Mac to my mom's Windows XP system from July 2009, and to my wife's Thinkpad running Win 7 since Oct 2009. None of the computers involved have had any security issues at all, let alone any caused by LogMeIn. For my wife's PC, it sits behind our NAT Firewall in our LinkSys Router (although I did have it behind a CheckPoint VPN Edge router for a while). My Mom's PC sits behind a Netgear Router providing its NAT Firewall. When my Mac isn't at home, it's generally behind that CheckPoint VPN router at my office now. It all works nicely from behind one router to behind another. The Piece that you install on the PC will log it into the LogMeIN website and that is how it gets through the router to the PC. You login to the website, select the PC to control, then login to that PC.

  • How Do I Convert Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview and Back Without Reinstalling Windows?

    Howdy,
    Much like in Windows 8 and Windows 8.1, Windows 10 provides you with experience that allows you to convert your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview without having to reinstall Windows.
    Why would I need converting my Windows SKU (edition)
    Currently, you may need this to fix issues with Windows not synchronizing browser favorites between different editions. For example, if you're using Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview in a test environment at work and Windows 10 Pro Technical
    Preview at home, you won't see favorites added on Enterprise edition at home and vice versa. All the links added on Pro edition while browsing web at home won't appear on your work PC.
    To convert Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview to Windows 10
    Enterprise Technical Preview:
    1. Press WindowsKey+PauseBreak and select Add Windows Features at the bottom left corner of System window.
    2. In the Add features to <OSName> window click to add Product key and type in the
    public product key for Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview available here.
    Voila! Your Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview is now converted to Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview.
    To convert Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview to Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview:
    Following the above procedure does NOT reveal Add features to Windows 10 link button in System window.
    We could try doing this through DISM tool.
    1. Press WindowsKey+X and select Windows PowerShell (Admin) or Command Prompt (Admin).
    2. At the command prompt type dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition to obtain information about the current edition of Windows:
    PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-CurrentEdition
    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
    Version: 10.0.9926.0
    Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
    Current edition is:
    Current Edition : Enterprise
    The operation completed successfully.
    PS C:\Windows\system32>
    3. Check which versions you may switch to:
    PS C:\Windows\system32> dism /online /Get-TargetEditions
    Deployment Image Servicing and Management tool
    Version: 10.0.9926.0
    Image Version: 10.0.9926.0
    Editions that can be upgraded to:
    (The current edition cannot be upgraded to any target editions.)
    The operation completed successfully.
    Looks like Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview cannot be downgraded.
    To downgrade edition from Enterprise to Pro, you can trick Windows setup into thinking it is running on Pro by going to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion and changing the following keys:
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
    "EditionID"="Enterprise"
    "ProductName"="Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview"
    I believe for Pro edition this must be
    Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
    [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion]
    "EditionID"="Professional"
    "ProductName"="Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview"
    After that you may run in-place upgrade using Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview Setup disc.
    Note, if you can't find the Add features to option in Control panel, press Windows Key + R and type control /name Microsoft.WindowsAnytimeUpgrade.
    If you want to, you could change Windows edition via DISM servicing tool by running:
    DISM /online /Set-Edition:Enterprise /ProductKey:XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX /AcceptEula
    In case you can't access official page for
    Windows 10 Enterprise Technical Preview download, or the page that contains
    product key for Windows 10 Pro Technical Preview, you can always obtain the product key by looking for
    F:\sources\pid.txt on the Windows Setup disc.

    in order to verify there is nothing wrong with the credentials...i checked on unity and i am sure it's the PIN(12345) i need to use .
    Can Anyone help me out here...Thanks in advance.

    It's not looking for your PIN - that is only used over DTMF-based interactions - it's looking for your CUC password. If the mailbox is synced from LDAP and you have LDAP Auth enabled on CUC, then this would be your AD password. If it's synced over AXL, not synced at all, or LDAP synced but without Auth, then there will be an alphanumeric password field on the mailbox under Edit > Change Passwords.

  • Hi. I am using a time capsule for few PC s. I have made 5 different account to access time capsule. but in windows when i enter account name and password for one account, i cannot access other accounts, because windows saves username

    Hi. I am using a time capsule for few PC s. I have made 5 different account to access time capsule. but in windows when I enter account name and password for one account, i cannot access other accounts, because windows saves username. how can i prevent this from happenning. I really need to access all my accounts and dont want it to save automaticlly.

    Why have 5 accounts if you need to access all of them.. just have one account?
    Sorry I cannot follow why you would even use the PC to control the Time Capsule. Apple have not kept the Windows version of the utility up to date.. so they keep making it harder and harder to run windows with apple routers.

  • Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Unistall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    Unable to load ITUNES onto PC HP, windows 7 Home Version.  Error message reads "Application Application Support not found".  "Uninstall and reload".  I have done that 4 times on Explorer and Firefox without success.  Help??

    I had gotten a similar problem, except with "provider services", i believe, but i solved it by copying sqlite3.dll from E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to E:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\Mobile Device Support. doing that solved my first problem, but now i have been getting the error described in this topic (unable to load dataclass info... etc.). i tried reinstalling itunes (i already had 9.1.1, and thats what i reinstalled) by using the method described on apples site (using the "remove programs" tool in the control panel) and then downloading and installing itunes. when i opened it again, i still got the same error, and just now i got an error saying "the instruction at "0x00aadb6b" referenced memory at "0x00000008". the memory could not be read" it gave me the option to cancel and debug, or to press ok and terminate the program. I tried pressing cancel, and the popup went away but nothing else happened. a minute later the popup was back, so i pressed ok and itunes quit. Upon opening Itunes again, i got the very same error. sorry for the long post, but its really been bugging me. thanks for any help you might give, and if you need anymore info, feel free to contact me.

  • REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER

    I am using a window 7 professional  service pack 1 and I purchase REMOTE DESKTOP SERVICES CLIENT ACCESS LICENSES FOR MICROSOFT WINDOWS SERVER 2012 STANDARD AND DATACENTER. but  the seller did not send me any installation CD or instruction
    on how to use it.
     Please how can I use it on my window 7 professional  service pack 1.
    Thank you.

    Though Bill is absolutely correct for most CALs, Remote Desktop Services does have its own special licensing server.  I haven't installed one on 2012, yet, but here is a step-by-step guide for 2008.

    Here is a lab guide for 2012 -
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj134160.aspx
    But, the explanation of your environment begs the question - what are you trying to do?  You say you have a desktop OS and you are talking about Windows Server products.  In that light, your question does not make a lot of sense.

    This has been posted for almost 2 weeks and not one reply. Thanks a bunch! As a newbie to OOo and Mozilla, I am not impressed with responsiveness to support needs with either. So, the future of my new experiment with going non-Microsoft remains an open question.
    Oddly enough, the problem mysteriously went away. I have followed the same routine and changed no settings. Suddenly all of the downloaded spreadsheets were no longer read-only. So I consider the matter resolved.

  • Installing ODI Studio and ODI Stand-alone on 64 bit Windows 7

    Can anybody tell me which ODI downloads I need in order to install ODI Studio and ODI Stand-alone on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine?
    I've already created the DB repository with RCU, but I'm having trouble with the ODI installation: I just spent an hour and a half downloading 2.5GB of installers that turned out to be wrong - the SETUP.EXE complained that it was a 32 bit installer and wouldn't work on 64 bit Windows - so I now need to find a 64-bit installer instead (another 2.5GB presumably...). Not sure which of the multiple download options to choose and I don't want to spend all day waiting for the wrong files to download again.
    Looking through OTN and the (typically confusing) Oracle installation docs, there's a load of stuff about using 32-bit JREs on 64-bit Windows to get around 64/32-bit Java problems later on, or lots of stuff about all the Fusion requirements etc. But I don't want the JEE stuff (I already have about 4 different WebLogic installations because every time I install any Oracle "Fusion" stuff it slaps another WebLogic in there as well), and I'm miles away from getting any Java runtime problems with ODI when I can't even figure out the right installer to use for 64 bit Windows.
    Maybe it's just me: every time I try to install any of Oracle's server products (apart from the RDBMS itself), I end up wading through endless lists of cross-linked installation pre-requisites and searching OTN forums for the single secret combination of installer/JDK/JRE/operating system/database character-set/RDBMS version and desperate prayers to minor deities that will permit the installation to go ahead...
    So any help will be gratefully received!

    You will have to download ODI with the download option "for All Platforms" from http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/middleware/data-integrator/downloads/index.html

  • Import library and playlists from Windows Media Player without duplicates

    How do I import all the music and playlists from Windows Media Player into iTunes without creating duplicates?
    I add the folder containing all my music to iTunes and all my music arrives nicely. I begin importing playlists and the playlist comes over with all the songs duplicated in my library. Most of my songs are on playlists but some are not.
    After adding the music folder (approx 7000 songs) then all the playlists, my iTunes library now contains over 13,000 songs. The increase is due to the duplicates being created as the playlists are added.
    If I skip adding the music folder and just add the playlists I get most of my music without as many duplicates but I am missing the songs which are not on any playlist. Thanks.

    If it' sprotectged WMA files, no you can't add them.
    If they are plain WMA (like RIPped from a CD) you can File -> Add to library and iTunes will import and convert them.
