[newbie] Configuration of Oracle Datawarehouse Builder

I've been trying to install Oracle Datawarehouse Builder 11g/10g on a WinXP 32bit machine, however, when browsing to the Repository explorer a "page cannot be displayed error" is being displayed. Basically all I've done so far is step through the installation wizard. Basic troubleshooting (see link below) did not improve matters as much; and neither did a nifty google search.
Has anyone encountered similar issues and found a solution?

No its not a problem to get to the design center. The browser just a helpful tool to see your previous executions/deployments or scheduedules in a easy way.
There is a greay tutorial that got me started:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/obe/11gr1_owb/index.htm
Thing is you will learn to use the tools on that tutorial but not really why you need them in your datawarehouse architecture. The best thing for that is to read a book by Ralph Kimball. The Data Warehouse ETL Toolkit: Practical Techniques for Extracting, Cleaning, Conforming, and Delivering Data.
But try the tutorial first and get used with the ETL tools.
Cheers

Oracle datawarehouse builder INS0003, INS0009

Hi,
i am encountering error while connecting to OWB Repository Assistant. when i try to connect as sys, i get an error INS0009 (unable to connect to database). if i give any other user with sysdba privileges then i get an error INS0003 (DBA privileges required) although it has been granted.
plz help me.

Hi, Gurus:
I have read your inputs and tried to solve my problem with OWB 10.2.0.4 patch application. It didn't work. I am seeking help. My basic situation is:
OWB 10.2.0.3 was installed by someone. Now developer use OWB 10.2.0.4 client. It can not access into existing OWB repository because the version is not matched. I got different errors as INS0009, ORA-01017 and LRM-00109 with the message as 'unable to connect to database with user SYS, invdlid username/password' I followed your advices above. Done these steps:
1. SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION SERVICES=(NTS)
2. INIT.ORA, remote_login_passwordfile=exclusive.
3. shutdown database
4. recreate password by using orapwd.
5. startup database and connect as: sys/new_sys_password as sysdba, I connected.
6. select * from v$pwfile_users; I got ' no rows selected'
7. I guess the sys might not have sysdba privilege, Grant SYSDBA to sys; I was feedbacked with ' password file missing or disabled'
I have tried many other options. It didn't work. I even couldn't figure out what reason causing thses problem. By the way, I still use OWB client 10.2.0.3 on my desktop and I have no problem to access into that repository. So please help. Thanks.

Confuse about Configuring Oracle Warehouse Builder

newbie here... i am abit confuse on how to configure the Oracle Warehouse builder...
I have 2 database... 1 source and 1 new one...
I understand that i have to install the Runtime Repository in the database computer and the Target Schema through the client's computer...
so all this while... i am just confuse about what to install into the source database and what to install into the new database...
Please help...

Location is a logical entity in your OWB design that can be either a database schema, a flat file location, an SAP application location etc. Once you complete your design and are ready to deploy the design into the runtime environment, you will have to 'register' the locations by providing the physical details of your location to OWB (user name/password, database, hostname etc.).
I am a bit confused by your configuration - are the source and the target in two separate schemas or in the same schema? Your posts are somewhat contradictory.
If they are in two different schemas, you should:
1. Create a source module pointing to a source schema (you can then import data object structures from the source schema - i.e. you don't have to create source tables manually in OWB, but you can import them into the module automatically). This module will have a source location (for example SRC_LOC).
2. Create a target module where all your target objects will be (i.e. where the data will be loaded). This module will have a different location (TGT_LOC). In your target module you will also create the mappings.
3. When deploying, you will register SRC_LOC with the physical details of your source schema, while the target location will be registered with the physical details of the target schema. The code generated by OWB during deployment will make sure that the data is extracted from the source schema and inserted into the target schema (either by generating and using DB links or by qualifying the schemas in the extraction queries if source and target are in the same database instance).
On the other hand, if both source and target objects are in the same db schema, you can have all your objects in the same target module and you will only have to register the location of this target module when deploying (LOC_TGT).
That said, there can be a variety of reasons why there is no data in the target after you run the extract mapping that have nothing to do with locations, such as logical errors in the mapping (an inappropriate filter or a wrong join), insufficient privileges etc. I suggest you take a look in the runtime audit browser that should contain the error messages relative to your mapping.

Oracle Forms: Build Internet Applications correct configuration

I want to study for the Oracle Forms: Build Internet application exam (IZ0-141) is this exam specified by oracle versions? Forms for 9i looks a little different that forms for 10g. If it is for 9i the download for Oracle9i Application Server is no longer available, neither is the database version. I want the setup a practice lab for the exam and I want to make sure I am using the correct configuration and that the exam is not go to refer to items that is no longer available.
Thanks!

Thanks for reply yogesh.
Actually I am looking for some basic tutorial of Forms developer. I never use that before. I haven't found which tools/package I can use to create forms. where is OC4J located?
what can OTN help on the preparing of IZ0- 141 exam? I found a course on Oracle website for that, But its price is $4,000 CDN, which I can't afford. I really want a book related to the course.
Thanks,
Robert

JBO-33001: Configuration file /oracle/apps/crmCommon/activities/activityManagementService/applicationModule/common/bc4j.xcfg is not found in the classpath.

I am trying to consume a base model which is available in the Customer.jws (AppCmmnCompActivitiesPublicModelActivityManagement) to my Mobile UI project available in Sales.jws (SalesMobilePublicUi). We have added proper Databindings.cpx entry for accessing the applicationModule present in the model.
On deploying the sales mobile app, I get the following ConfigException:
JBO-33001: Configuration file /oracle/apps/crmCommon/activities/activityManagementService/applicationModule/common/bc4j.xcfg is not found in the classpath.
The bc4j.xcfg mentioned in the above path actually contains the entry. On checking about this issue, I found out that the prominent solution would be model project should be added as Dependencies to the UI project. But the UI is in different workspace (Sales.jws) and so the list of dependencies shown are those of this workspace only, whereas the model is present in Customer.jws and it does not come under the dependencies list.
How can this issue be resolved? Please let me know any pointers on solving this issue.

Build an adfLibrary from the model in the Customers.jws and add this adfLibrary to the other ui project. This will get you the dependency.

Problem in import of MetaData file in Oracle Warehouse Builder 9.2

My Problem is Related to Oracle WareHouse Builder.My system's configuration is following :-
Machine : P4
Operating System :Windows XP
ORacle : Version 9.2
Oracle WareHouse Builder 9.2
Ram :1GB
SGA Size :Approximately 650M
I have 2 MetaData files which I have to import into OWB.
First file's size is 9M.It got imported properly in 4 minutes without any error.
2nd File's Size is 30M.when
I start importing this MEtaData file.It goes upto 35% in Progress Bar.But after that it does not show any improvement.
I have left the machine running with this option upto 24 hours.
But nothing happened .It still shows only 35%.
I have checked log file/Trace file/Alert log files ,but there is no error in these files.
If any body have any solution about it,Please reply ASAP.I am stucked in this problem from last 7-8 days.
Waiting for reply
Thanks & Regards
Harvinder Singh

Thanks for your reply Igor.
As posted the OWB 10.1.0 software is running against a 9.2.0.8.0. database, so OWB still uses DBMS_JOB instead of DBMS_SCHEDULER in this database. In addition I already tested scheduling a simple job to run an OS command as suggested in note 365539.1 , and job scheduling is working fine.
There are no invalid objects in this database.

Oracle Forms Builder 10g Questions

Good day everyone,
I want to start off by saying that I'm very new to Oracle Forms Builder (it was dumped on my table about a month ago) and I'm having some issues I need resolved in order to complete a project for a client.
I'm looking mainly for documentation or resources that will show me how to do the following in Oracle Forms Builder 10g:
* Use either the ENTER button or mouse click to navigate between mandatory fields in a form (currently only TAB works)
* Populate a field[s] after pressing a search button based on a SQL query
* Populate a field[s] on launch based on a SQL query
* Throw a warning message if an SQL query returns with a specific result
* Populate a drop down menu based on a SQL query (ie only show valid options to user)
* Remove static highlighting (fields should only be highlighted if necessary, which is never on this particular form)

I've been able to reduce my problem down to the fact that Oracle Forms Builder 10g is not configured correctly on my machine for my environment. I can seem to get Oracle Forms Builder to see my libraries. When I load the form I'm working on I get the following error:
FRM-18108: Failed to load the following objects.
Source Module:utlf_gui
Source Object: TOOLBAR_MDI
+... (many more of the one above)+
I press ok and get the following error:
FRM-10102: Cannot attach PL/SQL library sdsl. This library attachment will be lost if the module is saved.
+... (many more of the one above)+
From my various searches on the internet I've learned that this is because Oracle Forms Developer can not find the listed PL/SQL libraries and I should check my Environmental variables. I've set up two Environmental variables with the following:
Forms_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
Forms90_Path = C:\<project path>\Lib\ (This is the folder in the project folder where all the PL/SQL libraries are stored)
I created both Environmental variables because there wasn't any consistency on the sites I was checking to which was needed.
Also if I try to attack a PL/SQL library I get the following error:
Attached library name <name> contains a non-portable directory specification. Remove path?
I press yes or no and get the following error:
PDE-PLI038 Cannot open file for use as a PL/SQL library.
Any help is much appreciated.

Oracle Warehouse Builder

Dear buddies,
I need to migrate my tables and data from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 10g.
My boss's requirement is I must be able to redo it at any point of time. Meaning, I should be able to use the script at any point to recreate the tables and reload them independently without using SQL Server or the existing configurations.
Does OracleWarehouse Builder provide such scripts after the migration or in the process of migration, which can be reused independently?
There are about 7 SQL Server databases and each has around 270 tables. Some would be totally new and some would involve merging.
Please advice me.
Thanks.

Hi everyone,
I tried to Just started like this
1 - Start - All programs - Oracle Home - Warehouse Builder - Administration - Repository Assitant - Basic Install -
2 - User Name=rep_user
password=rep_user
sysdba user name = sys
sysdba password = the password i gave during the database creation (using dbca)
hostname=localhost
port number = 1521
oracle service name = test6 (the name for the database & instance for which i just created)
When I click Next, this error pops us:
INS009: Unable to connect to the database with user SYS. jaba.sql.SQLException: IO Exception: The Network adapter could not establish the connection.
The remaining disk space for that drive is few gigs and I have created the database with the 16384.
Please advice on how I should go about this.
I have been struggling to perform my migration. I really hope someone would be able to guide me through.
OS: Windows 2003 Enter Edition
Oracle 10g
And I am not able to access anything from SQL Plus after I installed Oracle Warehouse Builder.
So, is the error I am facing something like to do with a bad installation? Do I need to uninstall my OWB or uninstall my oracle and OWB and reinstall them?
Please guide me.

Thanks a lot.

Can I connect Oracle Forms Builder 10g to MS Access Database

Hi,
I have Oracle forms builder installed in my PC. I downloaded the Oracle Database Server from the oracle website and installed that as well. But due to the installation of Database server, my system has become very slow. In order to avoid this I wanted to know if I can connect the forms builder to MS Access Database.
Also, using ODBC I have created a database in my D:\ drive.
If using MS access as a database is possible, then kindly guide me how to proceed with it.
Thanks,
Shashank Senan

Hi Francois,
Thanks for your reply.
I have been working on Oracle forms from the past 1 year. I wanted to increase my expertise at the subject so thought I'll install it at my home and then try out developing and running a few small forms. So, in order to do this I downloaded and installed Developer Suite and database server. After installing the database server the system became very slow, as I mentioned earlier. Once I uninstalled the server, my system speed was back to normal. My system configuration is:
512 MB ram, Intel Pentium 4 2.66 Ghz processor, Windows XP service pack 3,1 CPU.
My requirement is very minimal. I just want a simple database where I can create tables, store data and connect form. If you have a have any other suggestion for my requirement then kindly help me in this regard.
In the meantime I'll act on your suggestion and try and install the XE server.
Thanks.
Shashank
