OMW hangs on mapping some databases

Hello:
I am migrating about 20 databases from MS SQL 6.5 to Oracle
8.0.5. 15 of the databased migrate flawlessly, but 5 of them
hang on OMW during the mapping phase. I have to "End Task" the
program to get it to stop. I have played with the source model
by trying several variations of removing some tables, indexes,
etc. I can get the mapping to work when I remove all ot the
tables... but that is not too helpful.
I am using:
OMW 1.2.1.0.0
MS SQL 6.5
Oracle 8.0.5 on NT for the repository DB (same machine as the
migration tool)
Target DB Oracle 8.0.5 on Unix, but I do not get that far...
Any ideas?
TIA,
~Sean

15 out of 20 is not bad :-) but our goal is 20 out of 20.
Please email a schema dump of one of the troublesome DB's to
[email protected] and development will investigate.

Database hangs after retrieving some records....

hi,
I create a two level B+-tree index, for the first level i'm using key as logical database name, for the second level B+-tree i'm using some other field in my data. I am retrieving the records based on logical database name. I am using C++ to implement my index.
In the following code i'm retrieving records from database. Program is behaving differently for different logical database names. For example in my database i have around 4 lakhs records with logical database name 'A' and around 1 lakh of records with logical database name 'B'. The following code displays all B records but programs hangs after retrieving some A records.
I'm using PAGE_SIZE=8192, numBuffers=2048, and runnig in Fedora Core3.
DbEnv myEnv(0);
     myEnv.set_cachesize(0, PAGE_SIZE * numBuffers, 0);
     myEnv.set_data_dir("/home/raviov/new/database");
          try {
               myEnv.open("./", DB_CREATE | DB_INIT_MPOOL, 0);
          catch (DbException &e) {
               cerr << "Exception occurred: " << e.what() << endl;
               exit(1);
          db=new Db(&myEnv,0);
          db->set_pagesize(PAGE_SIZE);
          db->set_bt_compare(compare_int);
     dbname=itoa(p);

Java Export hangs at 'Export Java Database Content' phase

Hi All -
As part of system refresh activities,we are doing Java Export from our Production system(PE1) & we will use that export to import it in our Qulaity system(QE1).So while doing Java Export,the export gets stucks/hangs at 'Export Java Database Content" phase which is the last phase in Java Export steps.We have been doing this task since many years & we did not encounter this kind of issue ever.There are no errors or at least warnings in the logs like sapinst_dev.log,jload.log,jload.java.log,sapinst.log etc.Our environment details are as below
EP -6.0
OS - AIX 5.3,64 BIT
DB - DB2 UDB
SAPINST version - 642
Java version is below
pe1adm> java -fullversion
java full version "J2RE 1.4.2 IBM AIX 5L for PowerPC (64 bit JVM) build caix64142ifx-20100918 (SR13 FP6)"
Please note with the SAPINST we are using currently, the exports of remaining systems in EP & other solutions like ECC,CR,SRM,XI,BI are successfull.We are having this issue only in PE1.Looks like some bug in code.So request the experts in this forum to please take a look at it & provide me with solution if any of you have faced the similar situation.
Thanks & regards,
Nagendra.

Thank you for your reply Subhash.The below is the last entry in jload.log.It is at EP_ATTR_HEADERS.While doing the Java export,we asked our DBA to monitor to find out any errors at DB side.He monitored and said that no deadlocks or no infinite loops are found.Also he said that he cannot create index for that too because it is trying to do select *.In our first 2 or 3 attempts it used to hang at CA_PRODUCTS meta data exported,CA_PROPERTY meta data exported.Now here.Our DBA said that EP_ATTR_HEADERS has 1.4M rows.We tried to bounce the entire system also,but no luck.We have the same issue.Peculiar thing is we dont see any errors or warnings in the logs.
23.06.11 09:54:21 com.sap.inst.jload.Jload dbExport
INFO: EP_ATTR_DEFS exported (6 rows)
23.06.11 09:54:21 com.sap.inst.jload.Jload dbExport
INFO: EP_ATTR_HEADERS meta data exported
Please let me know if you need any further info in resolving this issue.
Thanks & regards,

Mapping some integers

hello
I have this code below which maps out my string keys with string values; once it has maped them out it gets the string keys in the order that they are maped out at.
my problem is that i want to map some integers out with them ( int keys[]={0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9} )
How would i do this?
please help me
nicky
Hashtable ht2 = new Hashtable();
//Add vector to store results
Vector results2 = new Vector();
Object value2 = null;
String keys2[] = {"FirstName", "LastName", "Id", "Addr1", "Phone","County", "Postcode", "Country", "Addr2", "Town"};
//System.out.println(keys2);
String values2[] = {"ben", "ben", "ben", "mum", "ben","mum", "ben", "ben", "mum", "mum"};
// First, map keys to values in a hashtable
Hashtable hash2 = new Hashtable();
// the code matches values one by one for each of the keys
for(int i = 0; i < keys2.length; i++) {
hash2.put(keys2, values2[i]);
// Then we find each value and remove it from the hashtable
for(int j = 0; j < values2.length; j++) {
ht2 = (hash2);
value2 = (values2[j]);
Vector v = new Vector();
if( ht2.containsValue( value2 )) {
Enumeration e = ht2.keys();
while (e.hasMoreElements()) {
String tempkey2 = (String)e.nextElement();
String tempvalue2 = (String)ht2.get(tempkey2);
if (tempvalue2.equals(value2)) {
v.add(tempkey2);
ht2.remove(tempkey2);
results2.add(v);

As you probably know you cannot use integers as keys in your Hashtable object, because the keys have to be objects and int is a primitive type, not an object.
Use the Integer wrapper class:
Hashtable ht = new Hashtable();
ht.put(new Integer(1), "number one");
ht.put(new Integer(2), "number two");
To lookup a string:
int key = 2;
String value = (String)ht.get(new Integer(key));

Windows 7 64-bit hangs completely after some minut...

Hi all,
My Windows 7 64-bit machine hangs completely after some minutes using Nokia Suite 3.3.89 connected with a E72 through USB cable.
When connecting, everything goes fine and I can usually synchronize data successfully between the E72 and computer. I can also connect to Internet successfully through the E72 modem.
However, after some minutes (usually 4-5), the computer hangs completely, with the screen frozen and beign completely irresponsive to any mouse or key input.
The only way to unlock it is to press the computer On/Off key and restart it completely.
Has anybody experienced this issue?
Thanks

Hi Roberto,
I too faced the same problem and I too use Windows 7 X64 bit, when ever i open Nokia Suite and maximize it, my screen turns completely Grey/White and nothing works including ctrl+alt+del and I would need to force reboot using the reset button this is really frustrating! I have already checked the display drivers, updated drivers but again same issue and I reinstalled nokia suite as per your suggestion in the above thread but no use please suggest a permanent solution for this!
Thanks & Regards,
Pradeep

Db_hotbackup : some databases are skipped (not copied)

Hello,
I've tried to do a backup with db_hotbackup. I got no error but I saw that some databases were not in my backup directory?
Why?
PS : I'm using BDB 4.7.25 on Linux 2.6.28.4 (x86_64).
The command line I used is :
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/bin/db_hotbackup -d /data/db -h /data/db -b /data/backups_test/
Thanks

Oops, "strange" behavior detected :
I've just tried to run this command :
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/bin/db_hotbackup -h /data/db -b /data/backups_test/
But I was surprised to see that only databases from my root environment were copied with logs. Databases from subdirectories within my rootenv were not copied at all.
Afterwards, I tried this command :
/usr/local/BerkeleyDB.4.7/bin/db_hotbackup -h /data/db -b /data/backups_test/ -d /data/db/g1/ -d /data/db/g2/ -d /data/db/g3/
This time, databases were all copied but into a unique target folder (/data/backups_test/).
So, I decided to script the process. I call db_hotbackup for each of my subdirectories of my rootenv. Well, it works but, this way, I get logfiles in each of my subdirectories. well, I can remove logs from subfolders but it's not really a clean work!
So, is there any easy way (and clean) to backup a rootenv when there are some subfolders with databases?

How do i show a popup in an OA Pageon the basis of some database validation

Hi All
I need to show a popup message on the click of a button.
On the click of the button I have to submit the page and do some database validation with the data entered by the user on that page.
Depending on the validation I have to give a popup which will have a value that is fetched from tha database.
I can show a popup by writing the below given code in the processRequest of my CO
OASubmitButtonBean registerbutton = (OASubmitButtonBean)oawebbean.findChildRecursive("RegisterButton");
registerbutton.setOnClick("alert('show an alert')");
But I cannot perform the database validation(using a stored procedure) in the processRequest.
I am performing the validation in the processFormRequest
Also I am not able to show the value fetched from the database in the popup using the above alert.
Please send me the code.
Thanks in advance.
Regards
Meenal

okay so the popup window would be some information window, where the user, maybe after reviewing the information presses close and closes the window.
i would do this using PPR, have a small content region or some other small region(which supports PPR), which would showup in some section of the screen when the user performs the desired action, and have a close button in the region, pressing close would fire PPR again and hide this region.
There maybe variety of solutions such as this depending on the requirement.
Thanks

Should ADF Entity Object Map to Database Table or View?

We are building a new 3-tier JClient/ADF application. We have mapped most entity objects directly to database tables. Now that we are preparing to deploy, our DBA is angry; he believes that all entity objects should be mapped to database views. The developers see this as a headache, UML can not forward/reverse changes, and now we have another layer of abstraction, which doesn't seem to serve a useful purpose. What is the best practice in a new 3-tier application?

Hi,
I'm still having problems but I found out why these tables are returning errors. The username I've been given by the DBA to connect to the database is CONSULTA, but this user is only for querying purposes, the actual objects reside on a differente schema, of course, which is PROD. So the line:
"CONSULTA"."ESTADOS"@"PROD@AYADEV_LOCATION" "ESTADOS"
raises an exception because the table ESTADOS is not located on that schema, but on PROD. If I query the table from SQL Plus with:
SELECT *
FROM [email protected]@AYADEV_LOCATION
then there's no problem at all.
Why is this? How do I instruct OWB to point to the correct schema or to avoind fully qualifying the table name?
Please help me, I'm kind of confused here.
Best Regards,
--oswaldo.

How can I see in what maps some table is used?

Hi,
Anyone can tell me how can I see in what maps some table is used, without open all of then?
Thanks,
Gustavo.

Good morning Gustavo,
OWB has some public views defined which can provide you with this information. Check Appendix D (Warehouse Builder Public Views) of the OWB User Guide for all info.
Log in as the owner of the design time repository, if you run the following query you'll have a basic overview of whic table is used in which mapping:SELECT MAP_NAME         MAPPING_NAME
,      DATA_ENTITY_NAME TABLE_NAME
,      BUSINESS_NAME    TABLE_OPERATOR_ALIAS
,      DESCRIPTION      TABLE_OPERATOR_DESCRIPTION
FROM   ALL_IV_XFORM_MAP_COMPONENTS
WHERE DATA_ENTITY_TYPE = 'TABLE'Good luck, Patrick

Best way to map CLOB database fields?

I ran into a problem mapping CLOB fields a couple of months ago and couldn't find an easy answer to the problem. I got sidetracked and now find myself back at the same point...
What is the best practice for mapping CLOB database fields in the mapping workbench? Do you map them as serialized (as a note I've got here) or can someone point me in the proper direction please? I've got everything else functioning properly, but I left my CLOB fields out of my mapping because they were giving me such trouble. Now, I need to get back to that specific area.
~ Tiffani

Hi Tiffani,
SerializedObjectMapping is generally used to map a multimedia object (for example image)to a BLOB field. For CLOB, I use simple direct-to-field mapping, and TopLink conversion manager will handle the read/write from the object String/Char[] to CLOB.

Some database applications might still be running

Hi All
I've installed Enterprise Portal 7 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.4. where 5 other sap instances are installed all running on sapdb 7.7
I had to uninstall the portal and on reinstalling I had to remove entries from /sapdb/data/config/Databases.ini, /sapdb/data/config/Installations.ini and delete all files under /sapdb/data/config/ containing the <SID> for the installation to continue. But the installation get to the step "install database server software" and then gives the following error "MDB-07020 The database installer reported an error. DIAGNOSIS: Some database applications might still be running. SOLUTION: Check the log file sdbinst.log."
In the sdbinst.log file the following are found:
cannot do update check - test file "/sapdb/<SID>/db/pgm/kernel" not found
During that step the install calls "/sapdb/<SID>/db -profile Server -o sdb -g sdba -b is written to the logfile /saptemp/temp/sdbinst.log" but the /sapdb/<SID>/ folder does not exist.
I've tried stopping all other sap instances on the server.
I have also tried using a different <SID> but the same error occurs.
Thanks

呵呵，等了几天没有等到回复，自己弄了弄夜没找到解决办法。打算关帖了！
不过就算关也不能随随便便的就关了，把自己得到的一些想法和大家说说，希望对大家有点帮助。
这个版本的安装，不是SAP正规软件产品的安装，除了BASIS以外、大家就放松心态吧。
出现问题之前，最好做充足的准备。
如果真的打算安装这个版本，或者其他的版本，最好重新安装操作系统，干净系统安装，一般没啥问题。
别用啥优化版的。就找个未修改版的windows就行。
还有一招以备不时之需。就是装好操作系统后，马上做GHOST，然后再安装NW。
一旦出现问题，也好恢复干净的系统再安装NW。
谢谢大家的关注。

Unable to execute Map from Database link

Hi
Been trying to research this issue but have had no luck in finding an answer. Here is the situation:
We have an apex application that resides on database "A"
Our OWB Design Repository (11.1.0.7) and Runtime Environment both exist on database "B"
Maps exists and execute under normal procedures as the "ETL" user on database "B", However we would like to allow the "APEX" user to execute a map from database "A" across a database link to a user that can execute the map without any issue.
When we try to execute the map across the database link from toad or sqlplus we get no error returned, the procedure runs and kicks off a map execution (as seen in ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS) or from the control center executions. However the Map execution immediately fails with no explanation as to why??
what makes even less sense is that the user on database "B" that the database link connects to.. can execute the same procedure all day long if logged directly into database "B".. but the moment you try to call it across the database link.. it errors with no message as to why.
We are calling the "WB_WORKSPACE_MANAGEMENT.SET_WORKSPACE".. so that is not the issue.. I am assuming this is either a bug.. or we are missing an additional call/privilege. The user for the database link is a registered user in the workspace, obviously this works since the database link user can run the procedure if logged in locally to database "B"
Any thoughts???

Figured out our problem..
Found RETURN_CODE column in ALL_RT_AUDIT_EXECUTIONS table.. point to -2064 which is an ora-2064
NOTE 1026597.6 - CALLING REMOTE PACKAGE RECEIVES ORA-2064 explains that a commit is issued in a coordinated session from an RPC procedure call with OUT parameters or function call. Action: simplify remote update statement.
The problem here is that "Commit Control" was set to Automatic for the mappings we were calling. Oracle does not like when a transaction is initiated on database "A" and has a commit issued on database "B" from the map.
Makes sense.. we switched the commit control to "Manual" and are able to process correctly by issuing a commit from the session on database "A"
Hope this helps anyone that runs into this issue themselves..

Maps Remote Database settings for E71

I live in South Africa, and require the Maps Remote Database settings to sync my favourites with phone and vice versa.... Can anyone help please?

Remote Databas settings is used to integrate ACS with an oracle or sql database to generate reports in your environment.
If you are worried about the logs being generated it would be best to setup the removal and backup configuration and point your acs to either a ftp or nfs repostoring.

EJB mapping to database tables

Hi Experts,
I am moving my application from JBoss server to Netweaver server. For this i have to do all the maaping in ejb-jar and ejb-j2ee engine and persistence xml files. I am wondering the way how can i use my existing database tables for mapping to persistence xml.
Every example says i have to create java dictionary project but if i go like this then i have to create hundreds of tables again which are already in my SQL database. Please let me know how i can map my database tables to my application fro deploying to Netweaver server.
Thanks in Advance

Hello,
Java Dictionary stores its metainformation in xml - files, it meight be possible to create them on basis of existing tables.
But: Java Dictionary only supports the default "system" - database that is unterneath NWAS.
As i understand your problem, you want to connet to an other (existing) database - so you will have to create the mapping in persistence.xml. I would try to use a xml transformation to create persistence.xml
hope it helps

Clicking on a database is very slow for some databases

Hello,
when I click on some databases in my Grid (especially 10.2.0.4 on AIX) I wait for a minute that the database home page being displayed.
It is not the case on my other databases (especially 9.2.0.8 on Solaris).
I have checked the sysman/log and found that the agent seems to pause for 20 secondes several times before the dataabse home page displays; I do not know if the agent does nothing (sleeping ?) or doing things that are not loggued on the file (or sending informations back to the OMS).
Did somebody noticed the same behaviour ?
and did more investigations ?
(I did not found any bug related to this on Metalink and as I wait to apply the latest PSU over my system to create a SR if the trouble remains).

When selecting a database from the Database Targets page, OEM needs to address you local database.
When databases are spread over several servers and several OS platforms, response obviously can be different.
