Oracle Data Source not showing proposal fields

Hi, I need to create a DB Connect - Oracle Data Source. I go to the table / view matchcode, and I find the view we created for this data source, and in Proposal it doesn't bring any fields. I press the refresh button, and nothing happens.
Any idea what this could be??
Tanks in Advance

HI
Change the data in the Flat file for Date field in the format YYYYMMDD. Then try viewing the Preview.
If it still shows error message like your system format does not match, Check the System date format, you can check in SU01-->defaults tab, change the data in the flat file with your system format and check.
Hope this helps,

ODBC data sources not showing up in datasource selection list

when I go to change datasources for a report, newly created ODBC connections do not show up. I noticed they are all in the odbc.ini file and listed under ODBC in the machine directory/software folder in the registry but not under the current user/software/odbc registry folder. Where does Business Objects/Crystal reports cache this information?

OK, then how do I set up a connection pool for a SQL Server database? At some point, I have to configure a connection pool. In the Call Interface dropdown, isn't ODBC the proper choice? Then, in the Data Source name dropdown, I should get some entries, right?

Change Data Source not showing tables (in the taget drop down) that begin with "SYSTEM"

I am trying to change the data source to a database table that is named someschema.SYSTEM_XXX_XXX but none of my tables that are named SYSTEM_....... are in the combo box list of the taget tables (Change Data Source) dialog. I have tried this on several database with the same results. Are you filtering out tables that begin with system ?

Cannot create new Data Source - Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN

On Windows 7 x64, Installed Oracle 10g to use ODBC to connect to Oracle database but am not able to create new data source as Oracle ODBC does not show in System DSN.... only shows SQL server etc etc...

If you installed 32-bit Database Client, try the 32-bit ODBC admin tool: C:\Windows\SysWOW64\odbcad32.exe
Note that 10.2.0.5 is the earliest "10g" version supported on Win 7.
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/relnotes.102/b15680/toc.htm#BABEBBJF
As an alternative, try the 11.2 Instant Client.

Not able to connect to Oracle Data source in Oracle Essbase Studio 11.1.2.2

Hi,
When i tried to connect to Oracle data source, i get this error "Unable to establigh connection. Ensure that the server is running, the user name and password are correct, and the ohter data fields match the server's configuration" when i tried to select database.
If i change server name from to localhost, it allows to select database and does not give any error. but clicking on next button says localhost is not accepted, it needs machine name. Then how to connect to Oracle Data source?
Edited by: User006 on Oct 10, 2012 12:45 PM

It is possible the Oracle db has not been installed correctly, I take this is a personal install on a laptop, if so did you install the loopback adaptor.
Have you tried the connection using the ip of the machine.

Powerpivot Data Refresh Not working with Oracle Data Source in sharePoint 2013

I am using SQL Server 2012 PowerPivot for Excel 2010. Getting the following error in SharePoint 2013 environment, when using Oracle data source within a workbook -
EXCEPTION: Microsoft.AnalysisServices.SPAddin.DataRefreshException: Engine error during processing of OLE DB or ODBC error: The specified module could not be found..:

I created a simple Excel 2013 PPIV workbook with an oracle data source and uploaded that to SharePoint 2013, but no change in the results - still getting the above error.
What is this error? We have installed Oracle client (64-bit, since we use 64-bit Excel and Sp is also 64-bit) on SSAS PPIV Server and SharePoint Content DB Server. Do we need
to install it anywhere else?
Thanks,
Sonal

Hi Sonal,
To use PowerPivot for SharePoint on SharePoint 2013, it is required to install PowerPivot for SharePoint with the Slipstream version of SQL Server 2012 SP1. If you install SQL Server 2012 and then use the upgrade version of SQL Server 2012 SP1 to upgrade,
the environment will not support SharePoint 2013.
I would suggest you refer to the following articles:
Install SQL Server BI Features with SharePoint 2013 (SQL Server 2012 SP1):
http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/jj218795.aspx
Upgrade SQL Server BI Features to SQL Server 2012 SP1:

Newly added field in the data Source not getting populated

Hello All,
We have added few fields in the Data Source. The Data Source is based on the InfoSet. We have included the field in the Infoset and have updated the code to fetch the value for the newly added fields.
When we perform the test extraction for this Data Source in RSA3, the newly added fields are not getting populdated with the value. In the system generated query's selection list, the newly added fields are not selected.
Please let mw know how to get the newly added field selected in the system generated query of the infoset.
Regards,
-Purnima

Hi,
As you said you have added the filed in Info Set. Have you included the same in data source? try if not.
If you are trying to create a query in source system to check the data. I guess in R/3 (ECC) then you have to include the new field in slection critera (ther is an option available on top menu).
I would suggest before creating any query go to RSO2 select the data source. Display the field structure and check if the filed is there or not. You maysee Infoset level data directly by data display from top menu. Try that optionas well to check.
I hope it will help.
THanks,

Performance issue with Oracle data source

Hi all,
I've a rather strange problem that I'm stuck on need some assistance on.
I have a rules file which drags data in via an SQL data source thats an Oracle server. If I cut/paste the 3 sections of "select" "from" and "where" into SQL-Developer and run the query, it takes less than 1 second to complete. When I run the "load data" with this rule file or even use the "Retrieve" with the rules file edit, it takes up to an hour to complete/retrieve the data.
The table in question being used has millions of rows and I'm using one of the indexed fields to retrieve the data. It's as if the Essbase/Rule file is ognoring the index, or I have a config issue with the ODBC settings on the server that is causing the problem.
ODBC.INI file entry for the Oracle server as follows (changed any sensitive info to xxx or 999).
[XXX]

One other thing that I've seen is that if your Oracle data source and Essbase server are in different geographic locations, you can get some delay when it retrieves data over the WAN. I guess there is some handshaking going on when passing the data from Oracle to Essbase (either by record or groups of records) that is slowed WAY down over the WAN.
Our solution to this was remove teh query out of the load rule, run it via SQL+ on a command line at the geographic location where the Oracle database is, then ftp the resulting file to where the Essbase server is.
With upwards of 6 million records being retrieved, it took around 4 hours in the load rule, but running the query via command line took 10 minutes, then the ftp took less than 5.

CrystalReports error in XI 3.1 with Oracle Data Source

Having trouble running Crystal Reports with Oracle data source off XI 3.1 SP3. Reports hang through CMC or InfoView. Have no trouble on identical environment (presumably) with the same reports. Basically this happened after migration.
Report can be run on designer on the server box (suggesting the connection is good) however once uploaded to CMS, it hangs with error. This is not about an specific report only reports with Oracle Data source (Oracle client already installed and connection established)
Any comments appreciated.

Thank you for your reply.
Seems like a re-boot resolved the problem.

Using Oracle Data Source in SSIS using Attunity

Hi,
I am using the oracle data source in SSIS.
* Created the expression that will have query to select source column.
* I need to extract only rows having specific date. This date is a dynamic one i.e Created a variable1 which will be update by function call(return type is datetime) for time being i have assigned the
value(datetime type).
* I have created one more variable2(string type) which will extract only date(dd-mon-yyyy). Below is the query i used.
{"select cast(DATEPART(dd, @[User::Cob_Dt] )as char(2))+'-'+cast(DateName(mm,DATEPART(mm, @[User::Cob_Dt] )) as varchar(3))+'-'+cast(DATEPART( yyyy, @[User::Cob_Dt]
) as varchar(4)) "}
* In source query expression i have used the variable but it showing "as missing expression". Though i tried a lot i cant get. some one please help. Below is thquery
{select * from table_name where ud.system_date =@[User::Date]
and... }
I have tried different formats like enclosing that between quotes(shows same error), then used to_Date() in oracle again shows same error.
If i hard code the value instead of @[User::Date] means its working well.
SomeOne please help me why that error is showing. I cant able to figure out. trying for whole day. PLEASE.
Thanks,
Mahalakshmi

Directly in the source component, or in the expressions property of the data flow?
If the latter, what happens when you preview your expression?

Due date is not showing up in UWL

Hi ,
Due date is not showing up in UWL. Back end is ECC not GP Just regular work flow.
I can see in workflow object end date kind. But the field is blank. For due date any additional configuration needed.
I really appreciate your help.
Regards
Mark

Hi,
As far as I remember correctly, the Due Date in UWL is the Requested End date in the workflow. So basically you need to open the workflow in backend in WF builder and look at the step. There is a tab for setting different deadlines and stuff. If you do the settings there (for example set the requested end in 3 days), I think that work item will display the due date based on that data.

Mapping deploy for Non-Oracle Data Source hangs

Hi All,
I am trying to deploy mapping for Non-Oracle Data Source and it hangs.
Oracle version is 10.2.0.3 and OWB version is 10.2.0.1.3.1
It would be really appreciated if you can help.
Thanks!
PS.

That helpes quite a bit. I still can't get the app to retrieve data, but I am getting a more useful message in the log:
[Error in allocating a connection. Cause: Connection could not be allocated because: ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied]
As you suggested, I removed the <default-resource-principal> stuff from sun-web.xml and modified it to match your example. Additionally, I changed the <res-ref-name> in web.xml from "jdbc/jdbc-simple" to "jdbc/oracle-dev".
The Connection Pool "Ping" from the Admin Console is successful with the user and password I have set in the parameters. (it fails if I change them, so I am pretty sure that is set up correctly) Is there another place I should check for user/pass information? Do I need to do anything to the samples/database.properties file?
By the way, this is the 4th quarter 2004 release of app server. Would it be beneficial to move to the Q1 2005 beta?
Many thanks for your help so far...

In this case you need to use Write-Optimized DSO or if you are in earlier version, then you need to use Transactional ODSinstead of basic DSO.

C++ Application and Oracle Data Source

Hi everyone,
I am a bit of a newbie in this domain so am a bit confused with some of the options I have for my task. My task is to have a C++ application which will write/read/update data to/from an Oracle database. What are my options in this case?
I have read about OCI and OCCI, about ODBC drivers etc. but how does it fit in. If I use OCI or OCCI, do I need an ODBC driver (since from what I have seen, these aren't available for free and free is also one of the requirements)? If not, what do I need to be able to use OCI or OCCI?
If I am wrong and there are free ODBC drivers for Linux, where can I find them?
Or does this whole question sound like garbage? :(
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
This is my experience, if you know for sure that your application is going to execute always against a Oracle Data source, perhaps you shouldn't use ODBC and you should go for OCCI. This should be a good starting point:
http://www.orafaq.com/faq/oci
And here is another question, how can I set up a development environment to compile a C++ application (written using ODBC) on a Solaris server? I need the headers and the library against which I have to link the application. My Oracle database is 9.2.0.4.0.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks!

Can SQL*Plus connect via ODBC to NON-Oracle data source?????

I am struggling to understand something. I downloaded Oracle instance client, SQL*Plus and ODBC components with the hopes of being able to connect via SQL*Plus to a non-Oracle/ODBC compliant database.
Is this possible? Or is SQL*Plus ability to connect via ODBC only to an Oracle data source??
Thanks...

sqlplus only connects to oracle. you can use the odbc driver from instant client to allow other applications to access oracle via odbc (e.g. excel). if you need to connect to non-oracle odbc database (ms-access, foxpro, etc.) you need odbc driver for those sources.
you can use sqldeveloper to connect to oracle and non-oracle databases. check otn product info for sqldeveloper for more details.
