Oracle gateways 11g

Hi
we have a oracle database version 11.2.0.1
now we have instlled database gateways 11g in sql server machine and created db link in oracle and working fine
Now my question is:
Windows 2003 server having sql server and 11g Gateways installed
But oracle database is 10g............if i create link in Oracle it will work?
because 11gR2 gateway will synch with Oracle 10g database.
Thanks
Shaik

Hi Joe,
yes it is possible. All you need is a suitable ODBC driver and the Database Gateway for ODBC.
There are documents available within the Oracle Support knowledge base (htp://support.oracle.com). As you didn't specify your preferred platform here a list of possible notes:

  • Oracle BPM 11g

    Hi All,
    I am using Jdeveloper 11g Rel 1. (11.1.1.6.0) with BPM Studio for Implementing Sales Application.
    1) Application File = SalesQuoteLab.jws.
    2) Project File = QuoteProcessLab.jpr
    3) Process File = RequestQuoteLab.bpmn
    I have completed the All the Roles (Sales Rep, Approvers and Contracts) with complete flow.
    In the Business Practices Role (Swim Lane -
    a) I created a Exclusive Gateway Named as (Is Business Practices Review Required ?)
    b) which has sequence flow (Yes) to Human Task Named (Business Practices Review)
    c) I created a new Exclusive Gateway named as (Business Practices Outcome) This Gateway has
    i) Outgoing condition flow (Business Practices Rejected) to Human Task (Enter Quote Details) in Sales Rep. Role.
    ii) Outgoing Unconditional flow (Business Practices Approved) to Parallel Gateway (Approvals ) in Approvers Role.
    Here the Point is :
    When I am Trying to do this step
    "Drag the outgoing sequence flow from Business Practices Review to Business
    Practices Outcome gateway" (Exclusive Gateway)
    I am not able to draw the outgoing sequence flow from Human Task (Business Practices Review) to Business
    Practices Outcome gateway. It denies even when I am clicking the Artifacts --> Sequence Flow Icon from Component Pallete
    or from the tool bars icons - Artifacts --> Sequence Flow.
    Due to this in my second Phase of Simulation Activity, (have completed all the simulation pre-requisites) When I start the Simulation I am getting the following error.
    "Node 'Business Practices Review' does not have any incoming Sequence Flows"
    Please correct me how do I do this step.
    "Drag the outgoing sequence flow from Business Practices Review to Business
    Practices Outcome gateway" (Exclusive Gateway)
    For this I have referred many guides and Tutorial, but none could provide the solution.
    Please response ASAP, awaiting your timely and valuable solution. to the post or to my id : [email protected]

    For the Oracle BPM 11g documentation go to http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E14571_01/soa.htm for the documentation (look at the "Oracle Business Process Management Suite" section).
    10g and 11g Oracle BPM are vastly different. A couple key differences:
    - 10g runs on Ecllipse and 11g runs on JDeveloper
    - 11g has full access to the SOA Suite adapters natively using SCA

  • Oracle 10g/11g to Sql Server 2005 Migration

    Dear All,
    I am a beginner to this migration Activities..
    We have designed one Application which is havin Database as Oracle 10g.
    and We had another small Application which is having Sql Server 2005 has Database.
    Daily we need to convert DB of Oracle to Sql server DB in order to acces recent updated data..
    Pls help me how to convert Database in Oracle 10g/11g to Database in sqlserver 2005..

    Hello,
    this is an Oracle forum and we are handling here migrations from foreign databases to an Oracle database.
    For migrations in the other direction, in your case from Oracle to MS SQL Server, you need to read the Microsoft pages, e.g.:
    http://www.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2005/en/us/migration.aspx
    Daily we need to convert DB of Oracle to Sql server DB in order to acces recent updated data..Normally a migration is not a daily process, so I guess that you just want to transfer data from Oracle to SQL Server on a daily basis. If that is the case, you should consider to use our Gateways. Please start reading here:
    http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/database/gateways/index-100140.html
    Using the Database Gateway for MS SQL Server (DG4MSQL) or the Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) you can copy your data from your Oracle database to your SQL Server database, using a database link in the Oracle database.
    Please let me know whether this answer helped you.

  • Oracle RAC 11g

    Hi expert,
    a question about VIP on Oracle RAC 11g. I have 2 server RAC1 and RAC2, I must be have:
    - Public interface that will be used for client communication
    - Virtual IP address (VIP) that will be bind by Oracle Clusterware to the public interface

    many thanks for all suggest,
    Lain

    No matter how many number of listeners that you run ... You need only 1 public ip,1 vip, 1 private ip for each node of the cluster.
    All the listeners on that node use the same vip but listens only on different port numbers that you choose ...

    Waiting for help. What thing im missing.....

    Naeem,
    There is no setting that would allow you to drop the double quotes round the object names as the translation to upper case is made by the Oracle database.
    The only solution would be to create views in Oracle that translate the names to upper case, for example -
    CREATE VIEW EMP (EMPNO, ENAME, SAL, HIREDATE)
    AS SELECT "empno", "ename", "sal", "hiredate"
    FROM "emp"@DG4MSQL;
    and then select from the view -
    SELECT EMPNO, ENAME FROM EMP;
    This is discussed in the documentation -
    Oracle® Database Gateway for SQL Server User’s Guide, 11g Release 2 (11.2)
    in the section -
    SQL Server Gateway Features and Restriction
    - Case Sensitivity

  • Oracle XE 11g R2 - Cannot Reach Homepage

    Hello Everyone,
    Try as I might, I cannot get the Oracle XE 11g Release 2 homepage to come up. This is a fresh install. I've read numerous forum and blog posts and still cannot find a solution. Here's the following pertinent information from what I can tell:
    1) I installed the Oracle XE program.
    2) The OracleServiceXE and OracleXETNSListener both show as "STARTED" and are apparently running.
    3) I can connect via SQLPlus using "C:\connect / as sysdba". Someone wrote somewhere I should try "alter system register;", but that didn't appear to do anything.

    TNS-12541: TNS:no listenerNo tns listener? But it is running in Windows services.
    If anyone could help me out, that'd be great. I've asked around the office but no one really knows why it's doing it.
    Thanks,
    Will

  • About Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway

    Hi All,
    I am very new at this topic, I want to know:
    1)Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway same or not?Need license or not?
    2)If want Creating Database Link from Oracle 11g to Sybase AS 15.5 Using Oracle Heterogeneous Services what drivers should I install from my pc(windows 7) and from my server(Linux red hat 5)?please give me link for this
    3)Is there any link Step by step to configure odbc until creating dblink?
    4)what more convenient, connect sybase from Oracle Heterogeneous Services or Oracle Gateway?
    Thank you so much for your help
    Regards
    JOE

    Joe,
    let copy/paste your questions and comment inline:
    1)Oracle Heterogeneous Services and Oracle Gateway same or not?Need license or not?
    Let me first clarify one thing, heterogeneous services is the generic mechanism in the Oracle database used by all gateways. The product you are talking about is the Database Gateway for ODBC or the Database Gateway for Sybase.
    The Database Gateway for ODBC is available for Linux and Windows. It is the free product which does not require an Oracle license. The license is included in your database license. It is a generic gateway which allows you to connect with any suitable 3rd party ODBC driver to a matching foreign database. As it is a generic connectivity which aloows you to connect to real databases but also to MS Excel or even Text files as long as you have a suitable ODBC driver, its capability is very limited.
    The more powerful gateway is the Database Gateway for Sybase. It covers the same functionality as DG4ODBC but it allows you also to work with distributed transactions, it allows you to call remote Sybase stored procedures etc. This gateway is design for Sybase ASE connections, so it is also able to map certain Oracle functions to Sybase equivalents. This Database Gateway for Sybase is NOT for free, it requires an additional license.
    2)If want Creating Database Link from Oracle 11g to Sybase AS 15.5 Using Oracle Heterogeneous Services what drivers should I install from my pc(windows 7) and from my server(Linux red hat 5)?please give me link for this
    That depends on your preferences. Both gateways are available for Linux and for Windows. When using DG4ODBC you only need to pay attention that you get a suitable 3rd party ODBC driver for this platform with the matching word size (64bit for 64bit DG4ODBC and 32bit ODBC driver for installations of DG4ODBC on 32bit platforms).
    The latest software release is currently 11.2.0.3 and it can be downloaded (and installed from scratch) from "My Oracle Support". Just open the Patches & Updates section, look for Patch 10404530: 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER and make sure to choose the platform you want to use. Then check out the readme as it lists which of these download CD's contains the gateway software.
    BTW, the CD contains DG4ODBC and DG4SYBS and it is up to you to decide during the installation which product you want to use.
    3)Is there any link Step by step to configure odbc until creating dblink?
    The ODBC driver installation differs from vendor to vendor and platform to platform - so we don't have a specific note how to configure the ODBC driver. This kind of question is better handled by the ODBC driver vendor.
    Regarding the set up of DG4ODBC on Windows you find suitable information in the knowledge base on My Oracle Support. Just look for:
    How to Configure DG4ODBC (Oracle Database Gateway for ODBC) on Windows 32bit to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install          [Document 466225.1]     
    and for DG4SYBS:
    How to Configure DG4SYBS (Oracle Database Gateway for Sybase) on 64bit Unix (Linux, AIX, HP-UX Itanium and Solaris) Post Install          [Document 437696.1]     
    How to Setup DG4SYBS (Database Gateway for Sybase) on a 64bit Windows          [Document 1319852.1]     
    4)what more convenient, connect sybase from Oracle Heterogeneous Services or Oracle Gateway?
    It really depends on your needs. DG4SYBS is surly easier to install as this gateway comes with everything you need and you do not have to find a suitable ODBC driver nor get the ODBC driver working. It is also more powerful as you can for example use triggers that replicate data changes in an Oracle database to the Sybase database within the same transaction. When you want to call Sybase stored procedures you can also do that with DG4SYBS. So it really depends on your needs.

  • Oracle Gateway 11 for dblink

    Dear buddies,
    I installed Oracle 10.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production. I installed Oracle Gateway 11 in another home. Now,
    I need to set my Oracle_Home variable to the 11g's location to get the oracle working.
    Is this right?
    I did this on a testing server and I need to apply this on a production server.
    Now, I have an extra home and listener ...I feel confused ...
    Please guide me.
    Thanks in advance.
    Note: I have posted this in General Forum but didn't see anyone replying. So, making a copy here.

    Sorry, somehow mistakenly it created duplicate.
    How to close it?

  • Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit)

    First of all my windows is not genuine, but on my friend's desktop oracle download and installation  worked fine, he chose "create and configure database" options, and it works very well on his desktop, though his windows is also illegitimate. In my case, when I select "Create and configure database" option and pressed 'next",
    (Go to my blog to see it with snapshots: Computer Science: Oracle database 11g release 2 installation problem on windows 7 (64-bit))
    it asks to select class, I select "Desktop class" and pressed "next". The moment I pressed "next", the whole setup thing disappeared like it was never started. I searched for all possible reasons for why its not getting installed on my laptop, I used registry cleaner s/w,  deleted 25 GB of data to create free space if it were the problem, increased the virtual memory to increase the space for RAM, I did almost everything to get this setup working, but I found no success with the "Create and Configure database" option
    and
    then
    I chose a "database software only" option and chose to store in a folder w/o spaces. This way, I got database s/w only and then later I found "Database configuration Assistant (DBCA)"  from windows START button and clicked to create and configure database manually. The steps are pretty much interactive and doesn't involve much brainstorming.
    The values I filled for
    1) Global Database Name :  orcl
    2) System Identifier : orcl
    3) I chose common password for both SYS and SYSTEM
    4) while on Enterprise Manager Configuration step, It asked me to create and configure listener in oracle home, so for that too, I typed "netca" in windows START menu and clicked it. There I added a listener.
    5) I chose a Storage area which was the Oracle-home itself i.e. where our installation files goes , in my case it is : C:\oracle_base\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\oradata
    6) Then after few more nitty-gritty clicks, we are set to go !
    Finally to write SQL code and to create your first TABLE , type "sqlplus" in windows "START" menu and click it when it appears. A command-prompt like window appears , which will ask you for username and password, so here they are :
    Username : sys/ as sysdba
    Password : (its the one you created in step 3 stated above )
    After this you are ready to write your first SQL command.

    Is this your solution to your original post at Oracle database 11g release 2 installation on windows 7 (64-bit) ?
    Pl be aware that you should not create any custom objects in SYS or SYSTEM schema - you should create any such objects in a separate custom schema.

  • Oracle XE 11g x64 does not run. No *DBF files inside of the XE folder. Windows 7 Pro x64.

    Hello everyone!
    I hope you are doing well all. In my case I have some troubles by installing Oracle XE 11g on my PC. My OS is Windows 7 Pro x64.
    1. I activated the Administrator mode on my PC (net user Administrator /active:yes)
    2. Started the setup as Administrator. The setup process was finished successfully with no errors showed.
    3. Started the Database, OracleServiceXE, OracleXETNListener and other services.
    4. Tried to connect using sqlplus-> connect system ->password, what in result gave me ORA-01034 Oracle not available and ORA-27101 Shared memory realm does not exist errors.
    5. Then I recognized that my C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\oradata\XE folder is empty when it should be usually full with 6 DBF file.
    6. I opened the cloneDBCreation.log and it contains these data:

    I spent around 2 days to come to this reason and now I do not know what to do next.
    My actions to resolve this problem:
    1. Checked if my user has administrative rights and belongs to ora_dba. It does!
    2. Turned Microsoft UAC off.
    3. Set the system and local variables of ORACLE_BASE, ORACLE_HOME, ORACLE_SID, PATH, TNS-ADMIN to the appropriate values in Enivornment Variables:
         - ORACLE_BASE -> C:\oraclexe
         - ORACLE_HOME -> %ORACLE_BASE%\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server
         - ORACLE_SID -> XE
         - Added to PATH -> C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\bin;
         - TNS_ADMIN -> %ORACLE_HOME%\network\admin
    4. Removed Oracle XE 11g and reinstalled to another drive. No sense!
    Some more errors:
    1. C:\oraclexe\app\oracle\product\11.2.0\server\config\log\XE.bat.log
    Instance created.

    It means -> O/S-Error: (OS 1387) Unable to add or remove a member from the local group because this member does not exist.
    I understand that I need to logon as batch job. I added me to this policy in User Rights Assignments, but still I get these "DIM-00019: create service error" and "O/S-Error: (OS 1387)". And I guess just therefore my database is not starting well.
    2. 127.0.0.1:8080/apex/f?p=4950 is not starting in browser. It is probably because the database is not running appropriately. For this issue have already seen one topic in Google that the HTTP Properties inside the Listener Status must be set to 8080 to make this link work. But in my case I do not see this line in my Listener Status:

    I have tried to install both of them lots of times but in each case I receive the same in my XE.bat file:
    Instance created.
    DIM-00019: create service error
    O/S-Error: (OS 1387) Unable to add or remove a member from the local group because this member does not exist.
    Have checked OS 1387 error at Microsoft Support and as possible cause of the problem they give as follows:
    This issue can occur if the environment has a disjointed namespace (i.e. the domain has different NetBIOS and DNS names). For example, assume that the domain has a NetBIOS name of "domain.com" and a DNS name of "domain-old.com." When users are added in the Windows UI, they are displayed in the format of domain\ComputerName. However, you notice in the error log that there was an attempt to add a computer account in the format of domain-old\ComputerName. (System Center 2012 R2 Data Protection Manager install fails and generates ID: 4323: "A member could not be added")
    Tried to find out my DNS name, but it is impossible because I don't have any domain installed and my machine is not connected to it. Some other blog (Install Oracle 11gR2 on Windows) advices to work with adding my computer account to some non-real windows domain (just for the purpose of resolving the network) as well and reinstall the database then. If I undestand it right I need minimum 2 machines for this. But I own just one, where the server is based and thought that is enough to run the database... no idea ..

  • Anything fixed in Oracle TopLink 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.1.0) ?

    Was there anything fixed in Oracle TopLink 11g Release 1 (11.1.1.1.0) ?
    I don't see anything in release notes ( http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/ias/toplink/doc/11110/relnotes/toplink-relnotes.html ) regarding fixes. Anybody know where I can get that info? We have run into a couple of issues in the previous 11g release (11.1.1.0.1) and want to know if those issues have been addressed in the new release.
    Thanks!

    The two major areas of work in 11gR1 (11.1.1.1.0) are enhancements to EclipseLink included with the its 1.1.1 release as well as enhancements around TopLink Grid (JPA-Coherence integration).
    The EclipseLink 1.1.1 fixes are documented here: http://wiki.eclipse.org/EclipseLink/Release/1.1.1

After that I clicked Save and a window displayed with the % complete. It goes to 99% complete and 1 sec left and this seems to hang at that point. I've left it going for several minutes and then eventually cancelled it. I have the correct jdk version. Any suggestions?

    You mean the download hangs at 99%?
    That its usually the point when your virus checker starts its work. Some such programs are known to have trouble with large archive files containing many files.
    Try to download with three virus checker turned off.

  • Interactive report performance problem over database link - Oracle Gateway

    Hello all;
    This is regarding a thread Interactive report performance problem over database link that was posted by Samo.
    The issue that I am facing is when I use Oracle function like (apex_item.check_box) the query slow down by 45 seconds.
    query like this: (due to sensitivity issue, I can not disclose real table name)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,b.col3)
    , a.col1
    , a.col2
    FROM table_one a
    , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND a.col4 = 100
    AND b.col5 = a.col5
    table_one and table_two are remote tables (non-oracle) which are connected using Oracle Gateway.
    Now if I run above queries without apex_item.checkbox function the query return or response is less than a second but if I have apex_item.checkbox then the query run more than 30 seconds. I have resolved the issues by creating a collection but it’s not a good practice.
    I would like to get ideas from people how to resolve or speed-up the query?
    Any idea how to use sub-factoring for the above scenario? Or others method (creating view or materialized view are not an option).
    Thank you.

    Hi Shaun
    Okay, I have a million questions (could you tell me if both tables are from the same remote source, it looks like they're possibly not?), but let's just try some things first.
    By now you should understand the idea of what I termed 'sub-factoring' in a previous post. This is to do with using the WITH blah AS (SELECT... syntax. Now in most circumstances this 'materialises' the results of the inner select statement. This means that we 'get' the results then do something with them afterwards. It's a handy trick when dealing with remote sites as sometimes you want the remote database to do the work. The reason that I ask you to use the MATERIALIZE hint for testing is just to force this, in 99.99% of cases this can be removed later. Using the WITH statement is also handled differently to inline view like SELECT * FROM (SELECT... but the same result can be mimicked with a NO_MERGE hint.
    Looking at your case I would be interested to see what the explain plan and results would be for something like the following two statements (sorry - you're going have to check them, it's late!)
    WITH a AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_one),
    b AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_two),
    sourceqry AS
    (SELECT  b.col3 x
           , a.col1 y
           , a.col2 z
    FROM table_one a
        , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND   a.col4 = 100
    AND   b.col5 = a.col5)
    SELECT apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
    FROM sourceqry
    WITH a AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_one),
    b AS
    (SELECT /*+ MATERIALIZE */ *
    FROM table_two)
    SELECT  apex_item.checkbox(1,x), y , z
    FROM table_one a
        , table_two b
    WHERE a.col3 = 12345
    AND   a.col4 = 100
    AND   b.col5 = a.col5If the remote tables are at the same site, then you should have the same results. If they aren't you should get the same results but different to the original query.
    We aren't being told the real cardinality of the inners select here so the explain plan is distorted (this is normal for queries on remote and especially non-oracle sites). This hinders tuning normally but I don't think this is your problem at all. How many distinct values do you normally get of the column aliased 'x' and how many rows are normally returned in total? Also how are you testing response times, in APEX, SQL Developer, Toad SQLplus etc?
    Sorry for all the questions but it helps to answer the question, if I can.
    Cheers
