Oracle provider Issue in SQL Server 2005

Hi all,
On the dev server, I'm using SSAS 2005 (32-bytes) + Oracle provider for OLE DB to access my Oracle Database and it works perfectly.
On the production server, SSAS 2005 is running on a 64-bytes platform.
The Oracle client 10.2.0.1.0 (64 bits) has been installed containing the Oracle provider for OLE DB but unfortunately the Oracle provider for OLE DB does not appear in the list in BIDS when trying to create a date source.
Could someone help ?
Regards,
Juan

After much grief I figured this out and this works for me going from x64 sql 05 on windows server 2003 to x86 oracle 10g on another windows server 2003 box...
Software Prerequisites
•     x64 Oracle Client:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winx64soft.html
•     x64 Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/tech/windows/odpnet/64-bit/index.html
•     x86 Oracle Client:
http://www.oracle.com/technology/software/products/database/oracle10g/htdocs/10201winsoft.html
•     SQL Server 2005 SP2 (x64):
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=D07219B2-1E23-49C8-8F0C-63FA18F26D3A&displaylang=en
Patch Level Required (As of Thursday, July 31, 2008):
•     Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio: 9.00.3042.00
•     Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools: 2005.090.3042.00
•     Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC): 2000.086.3959.00 (srv03_sp2_rtm.070216-1710)
•     Microsoft MSXML: 2.6 3.0 4.0 6.0
•     Microsoft Internet Explorer: 7.0.5730.13

•     Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC): 10.2.0.3.00 (64-bit Oracle10g Release 2 ODAC for Windows x64)
1. install the x64 and x86 oracle clients on the mssql box
2. install the odac on the mssql
3. Verify that the registry settings at
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\MSDTC\MTxOCI and
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\MSDTC\MTxOCI
are correct:
a.     OracleOciLib = oci.dll
b.     OracleSqlLib = orasql10.dll
c.     OracleXaLib = oraclient10.dll
4. Verify that your tnsnames.ora and sqlnet.ora files have the correct info to connect to the source Oracle 10g (x86) 32 bit source. Note if there is a DNS or other name resolution problem in the environment you may need to change your host entry in your tnsnames file to be the actual I.P. address of the source Oracle box, until the network issue is resolved by the applicable environments network engineer. Additionally, note that if your client tnsnames.ora file is not configured to match the network topology in use, you will have issues… loopback configurations particularly cause grief.
5. Update Machine.config Add the following binding policy:
<runtime>
<assemblyBinding xmlns="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:asm.v1">
<dependentAssembly>
<assemblyIdentity name="Oracle.DataAccess" publicKeyToken="89b483f429c47342" />
<bindingRedirect oldVersion="2.0.0.0-10.9.9.9" newVersion="2.102.3.2" />
</dependentAssembly>
</assemblyBinding>
</runtime>
6. Save the following as a *.reg file and run it...
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Microsoft\MSDTS\Setup\WizardPath]
@="C:\\Progra~2\\Microsoft SQL Server\\90\\DTS\\Binn\\DTSWizard.exe"
7. Save the following as a *.bat file...
rem Progra~2 is short path name for "Program Files (x86)" and works around an Oracle client bug that doesn't like the ()'s in the path
start /B "C:\Progra~2\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE" "C:\Progra~2\Microsoft Visual Studio 8\Common7\IDE\devenv.exe"
8. Save the following as a *.bat file...
start /B "C:\Progra~2\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE" "C:\Progra~2\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Tools\binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\SqlWb.exe"
9. Create a shortcut that points to each of the batch files you just created and only launch BIDS or SSMS from those *.bat files...
10. create your packages, etc., as normal, but you will not be able to fully test them from BIDS or SSMS because they are 32 bit running in 64 bit o/s...
11. Create a job with a line similar to the following as a cmdexec type of job...
"C:\Progra~2\Microsoft SQL Server\90\DTS\Binn\DTExec.exe" /FILE "C:\SomeWidget.dtsx" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF
12. your done...

Migrate oracle database to Microsoft sql server 2005

Hi All,
I have to migrate production oracle database to Microsoft sql server 2005. Below are the details:
Oracle database version: 8.1.7.4
Platform : Aix
Kindly help me out

Well, the traditional way would be to dump out all your data from Oracle tables as comma delimited flat files and import into SQL server. Plenty of examples online, like this is one by Mark Powell: http://www.jlcomp.demon.co.uk/faq/flatfile.html
Or if you have the budget you could think about buying a data mapping tool like File-Aid
As mentioned by another poster, you will still need to figure out how to replace all your triggers, stored procedures, etc on your new platform of course.

Cannot connect to Oracle 11gR2 database from SQL Server 2005

Both SQL Server (Windows) and Oracle (Linux) are in 64bit environments.
I have done the following on a Windows 2008 R2 with SQL Server 2005:
Install InstantClient from Oracle Database 11g Release 2 Client (11.2.0.1.0) for Microsoft Windows (x64) to C:\Oracle
Install oledb from 64-bit ODAC 11.2 Release 3 (11.2.0.2.1) for Windows x64 by executing install.bat oledb c:\oracle odac
Note: Not sure whether 11.2.0.2.1 version of ODAC will cause any problem since I cannot find 11.2.0.1.0 version.
I have checked the Allow inprocess of OraOLEDB.Oracle provider in SSMS.
I have executed sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'ORACLE_TEST', @srvproduct = 'Oracle', @provider = 'OraOLEDB.Oracle', @datasrc = '##.##.##.##:1521/TEST'
The ##.##.##.## is the ip address of the Linux server which has the Oracle 11gR2 database TEST.
I have executed sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = 'ORACLE_TEST', @useself = 'FALSE', @rmtuser = 'xxxx', @rmtpassword = 'yyyy'
The xxxx is the oracle username and yyyy is the password for the oracle user xxxx.
I know the oracle database TEST is up since I have setup connection in Oracle SQL Developer having:
##.##.##.## as the hostname
1521 as the Port
xxxx as the username
yyyy as the password
TEST as the service name
When I click Test Connection for the linked server ORACLE_TEST in SSMS, it just hang.
When I issue a query like select count(*) from oracle_test..xxxx.table1, it just run forever. I'm not so sure how to query an oracle table. I have also tried select count(*) from oracle_test.xxxx.xxxx.table1.
When I retype the password in the Linked Server Properties, it just run forever.
Do I need to create a tnsnames.ora on the Windows machine?
Do I need to change the tnsnames.ora on Linux machine?
I'm very new to Oracle.

This forum is dealing with connections from an Oracle database to SQL Server - so the Oracle database is the driving site and this is the way round from your linked server set up.
As you're suing the instant client you might post your issue in the instant client forum:

Log File Issue In SQL server 2005 standard Edition

We have database of size 375GB .The data file has 80 GB free space within .When trying to rebuild the index we had 450 GB free space on the disk where Log file is residing.The rebuild index activity failed due to space issue.added more space and got the
job done successfully
The Log file has grow up to 611GB to complete the rebuild index.
version :SQL server 2005 Standard Edition .Is ther a way to estimate the space required for rebuild index in this version.
I am aware we notmaly allocate 1.5 times of data file.But in this case It was totaly wrong.
Any suggestion with examples would be appreciated.
Raghu

OK, there's a few things here.
Can you outline for everybody the recovery model you are using, the frequency with which you take full, differential and transaction log backups.
Are you selectively rebuilding your indexes or are you rebuilding everything?
How often are you doing this? Do you need to?
There are some great resources on automated index maintenance, check out
this post by Kendra Little.
Depending on your recovery point objectives I would expect a production database to be in the full recovery mode and as part of this you need to be taking regular log backups otherwise your log file will just continue to grow. By taking a log backup it will
clear out information from inactive VLF's and therefore allow SQL Server to write back to those VLF's rather than having to grow the log file. This is a simplified version of events, there are caveats.
A VLF will be marked as active if it still has an open transaction in it or there is a HA option that still requires that data to be available as that data has not been copied to another node yet.
Most customers that I see take transaction log backups every 15 - 30 minutes, but this really does depend upon how much data your company can afford to lose. That's another discussion for another day.
Make sure that you take a transaction log backup prior to your job that does your index rebuilds (hopefully a smart job not a sledge hammer job).
As mentioned previously swapping to bulk logged can help to reduce the size of the amount of information logged during index rebuilds. If you do this make sure to swap back into the full recovery model straight after and perform a full backup. There are
problems with the ability to do point in time restores whilst in the bulk logged recovery model, so you need to reduce the amount of time you use it.
Really you also need to look at how your indexes are created does the design of them lead to them being fragmented on a regular basis? Are they being used? Are there better indexes out there that can help performance?
Hopefully that should put you on the right track.
If you find this helpful, please mark the post as helpful,
If you think this solves the problem, please propose or mark it an an answer.
Please provide details on your SQL Server environment such as version and edition, also DDL statements for tables when posting T-SQL issues

Oracle Source TO MS SQL Server 2005 Target

Hi there,
I need to extract data from my Oracle DW and push it into a dependant system's Microsoft SQL Server 2005 DB.
Could someone PLEASE give me some pointers?
Oracle DB 10.2.0.4.0
OWB 10.2.0.1
Thanx!
Edited by: Gun77 on 2009/08/12 8:48 AM

Hi Gun77 !
As i knew, ODBC Generic Connectivity Agent is an API which use for connect other RDBMS. Don't care cost because it's free.
In other way, u can use Oracle Generic Connectivity Agent to any DB (SQL server, MySQL,…)
Download the orajdbclink_o2a.zip (oracle-to-any) file:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=205664
u can see detail in this link:

Hope good for you!

Anyone have idea about the error???
Thanks,
Manuel

Hi,
You have the wrong values in the tnsnames.ora entry.
You have -
HUAWEI_DCDB =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1523))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=hsagent))
(HS=OK)
but the CONNECT_DATA information is incorrect. it should be -
HUAWEI_DCDB =
(DESCRIPTION=
(ADDRESS=(PROTOCOL=tcp)(HOST=localhost)(PORT=1523))
(CONNECT_DATA=(SID=HUAWEI_DCDB))
(HS=OK)
The sid needs to match the sid defined in the listener.ora for the gateway.
The actual tnsnames.ora entry should have spaces at the beginning of each line except the first, as they are lost in the forum entries.
Once this is fixed you may also have a problem unless you put a user and password in the create database link statement -
create public database link HUAWEI_DCDB connect to "userid" identified by "password" using 'HUAWEI_DCDB';
One other point is that 10.2 HSODBC is now desupported and has been replaced by the 11g Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC). You should plan to install and use that instead of HSODBC to be on a fully supported product.
Regards,
Mike

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.
Regards
Wolfgang

Client transport between SAP on Oracle 10G and MS SQL server 2005

Hi Folks,
We have a requirement where we have to do client export/import from SAP ECC 6.O running on Oracle 10g and to SAP ECC 6.0 running on MS SQL server 2005.I want to know whether SAP supports this and patch levels of all components two systems should be the same.
Thanks in advance,
Basis Admin

Not recommendet because of potential :
- patch level inconsistency
- ABAP dictionary inconsistency (programs, tables)
- possible client independent configuration conflicts
existing config cen disturb "imported" client
imported config can ddisturb existing clients
If there are any inconsistencies mentioned above you are in trouble...

Transfer data from two oracle version to one sql server 2005

Hi,
I have two database servers on different machines. They are
1) Oracle 8.1.7.4
2) Oracle 7.3.1.4
I have to create agents which can transfer tables from these two databases to one machine having sql server 2005 database.
Please tell me what are the options. What drivers i need to install on machine having sql server 2005 so that i can transfer data from both oracle versions.
Thanks
Rajneesh.

Your Oracle databases are so old you might want to look around and see if you can find dinosaur bones near by.
Given the differences in data types between Oracle and SQL Server I'd suggest you start off by dumping the data into delimited ASCII files and then loading it using whichever SQL Server tool you wish.

Issue on SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 9i

OS: windows.
Sql developer 1.5.0.53
The migration works well on tables and functions, but fails on the procedures and triggers.
The procedures and triggers are just the simplest:
CREATE PROCEDURE PL_A
AS
BEGIN
PRINT 'A'
END
When I did the capture action, the displayed dialog showed the correct summary for procedures and triggers. But there are no procedures and triggers actually captured in the captured module.
It's just strange that the functions got captured while procedure not...
Thank you very much!

Hi Peter,
To help me understand the issue a little more could you send me a screen shot please.
I have not come across a scenario where the others objects where captured but not the procedures.
In the screen shot could you open your SQL Server connection and browse to the procedures and also have the captured model visible on the procedures.
Unfortunately you cannot upload an image to this forum, but if you could supply a link that would be great.
I'm thinking as your from China, that there may be some issue capturing procedures with Chinese characters?
Thanks,
Dermot.

Oracle gateway for MS sql server 2005

Is Oracle 9i Gateway for MS SQL Server compatible with SQL 2005? If not what are the other options?

Check the support matrix at metalink.
But be advised that Oracle 9i is in desupport mode.

Connection between Oracle 9i and MS Sql Server 2005

Hey Guys,
I am hoping to create materialized view of data on a small sql server box using our oralce 9i cluster. Anyway, i have done this with mysql using the standard odbc dirvers and a dblink, but i am having trouble finding an odbc driver for the connection from oracle to sql server. So, i was wondering if you guys know of a free, or cheap odbc driver, or have a suggestion of an alternative connection method.
PS: i have see: Heterogeneous Services Agents and Transparent gateways floating around, so are these options that don't need the odbc drivers and are free?
Thanks in advance

But you have to remember one big thing - I've not seen yet one compare that was completely indifferent to any of the included DB's. So you can be sure that every doc that you get on MS website will say that SQL server is better, every doc on Oracle website will say that Oracle is better. Every doc on other websites will say that better DB either is:
1) DB that has payed for the reserach paper
2) DB that was mostly used by the researchers
So of course you should be very cautious about each paper you get.

SQL Server 2005 to Oracle via OLE DB

I've got a project where I need to access several tables in an Oracle (9i) database from SQL Server 2005. I installed the Oracle OLE DB provider and the Oracle 9i client. I can access the tables via the Oracle client without issue. I tried creating a "Linked Server" in SQL 2005 Mgmt Studio. Sometimes I can get it to test the connection successfully, but I can never get it to read anything from the database.
Depending on what configuration I use, (MS OLEDB Provider, or the Oracle OLEDB Provider - varying the in process flag and other values) the errors range from not being able to instantiate the OLEDB provider to the server just returning an result that the table I'm trying to access doesn't exist.
I keep reading in the forums about Transparent Gateways.... Do I have to have a gateway running for this? Shouldn't I be able to access the Oracle tables via OLEDB?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
J

I finally got everything working by using the ORacle 10x OLEDB client to create a linked server. You also have to set the OLEDB "allow in process" flag to get it going.
With the 10x client and the in process flag, everything worked exactly as expected.
