Oracle SQL Developer vs Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench

Gurus,
Can anybody let me know what's the difference between Oracle SQL Developer vs Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench tools.
I am in the process of Migrating MS-Access Application to APEX. So the example says me to use Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench. Is this part of Oracle SQL Developer? If yes, I know SQL Developer is free.
If not is Oracle SQL Developer Migration Workbench if free?
Thanks and Regards

Thank Oracle ;)
(well, it's the least they can do after you paid big $$$ for the database)
Regards,
K.

Where to download the SQL Server 2000 plug-in for Migration Workbench

Dear All,
I am new to Migration WorkBench, I want to migrate the SQL Server 2000 database to Oracle 9i. When i start the Migration WorkBench, it requires me to select the plug-in (SQL Server) for the migration source. Before i have download and install the Access plug-in for testing. Can anybody tell me where i can find the SQL Server 2000 Plug-in for migration workbench.
thx.

Migrating from SQL Server to Oracle 8i

Hi all :),
I am trying to migrate from SQL Server to Oracle 9i.
I am using the Migration Workbench.
Everything goes fine during Capturing phase, but while
creating Oracle model the Workbench just hangs at
"Mapping Tablespaces" for over three hours.
(not exactly hangs in the sense that it responds to mouse
events and I can abort the ongoing activity ...)
What should I do ? Should I let it go on and see what
happens.
I follow each and every step as mentioned in the
documentation ... but obviously I am doing something
wrong. Any pointers ???
However ... if I try to migrate to Personal Oracle 8 ...
the migration goes fine from start to end ... just that
the SQL Server triggers aren't successfully migrated.

You may want to start by downloading the Oracle Migration Workbench. That generally does a reasonable job in moving the tables, stored procedures, etc. from SQL Server to Oracle. If your VB code is database agnostic, it should continue to work without any more intervention. Realistically, however, you'll rpobably have to at least tweak a few things that don't work the same way in the old ODBC/ OLE DB provider and the new one.
The hard part of migrations like this is that you may need to revisit some of your architectural decisions if you want Oracle to perform well. There are plenty of things that one does in SQL Server (i.e. frequent commits) to improve performance that have the opposite affect in Oracle. Identifying and fixing these sorts of things tends to be the largest part of a migration like this. Unfortunately, I don't know of a resource that talks addresses all the possible gotchas here.

Microsoft Access plug-in for oracle migration workbench

I would like to migrate from Microsoft Access to oracle 10g,but Microsoft Access plug-in had not found on web site oracle.com.
Where can obtain the Microsoft Access plug-in?
Thanks!

Hi,
Oracle SQL Developer 1.2 incorporates the Migration Workbench, providing users with the ability to migrate database objects and data from MySQL, Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft Access to Oracle. Oracle SQL Developer release 1.2.1 can be downloaded from OTN - http://www.oracle.com/technology/tech/migration//workbench/index_sqldev_omwb.html.
I would recommend that you review the accompanying documentation - http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/E10405_01/doc/nav/portal_booklist.htm - to ensure that you understand how to use the tool for the migration of your MS Access MDB file.
Regards,
Hilary

Migrating from mssql to oracle or postgres to oracle

I have a database driven web application written in J2EE. Currently this application works with Microsoft SQL 7.0 and Postgres 7.3. It uses various datatypes and also has many stored procedures. I will be migrating actual data, table definations and stored procedures.
Can you please tell me whether to go for MS SQL to oracle migration or postgresql to oracle?

Hi Margaret,
The Oracle Migration Workbench MS SQL Server 7 plugin will migrate your MS SQL Server 7 schema, stored programs and data to Oracle. You can freely download the Migration Workbench from the Migration Technology Center on OTN at http://otn.oracle.com/tech/migration/content.html.
Currently the Migration Workbench does not support migrations to postgres.
I hope this helps,
Tom.

Issue with migration DB from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 11.2 using SQL Developer Migration workbench

Hi,
We face an issue while migrating an SQL Server 2005 DB to Oracle 11.2. It fails during the process. I hope someone on the forum has seen this before and can give us some advice.
I use the latest version of SQL Developer with JRE included (3.2.20.09). The JDBC driver to connect to SQL Server 2005 is 1.2.0
Here are the steps we take in the Migration Workbench wizard:
I made an online extract of the SQL Server database.
Using the workbench in SQL Developer I created a migration repository in schema PDM_MIGRATION.
Next I start the migration, it captures the tables fine, but immediately after the start of the conversion I get a failed message without further explanations.
This is the content of the error xml:

Does anybody know what this error means and what steps we should take to continue the migration?
I see the PDM_MIGRATION.MIGR_FILTER is a type.
Many thanks in advance,
Kris

Hi Wolfgang,
Thanks for your reply.
This is how the type MIGR_FILTER looks like:
create or replace
TYPE MIGR_FILTER IS OBJECT (
FILTER_TYPE INTEGER, -- Filter Types are 0-> ALL, 1->NAMELIST, 2->WHERE CLAUSE, 3->OBJECTID LIST
OBJTYPE VARCHAR2(40),
OBJECTIDS OBJECTIDLIST,
NAMES NAMELIST,
WHERECLAUSE VARCHAR2(1000));
I think the repository user has the correct privileges. This is the overview of privileges it has:
SQL> select * from dba_sys_privs where GRANTEE in ('PDM_MIGRATION') order by GRANTEE;
GRANTEE PRIVILEGE ADM
PDM_MIGRATION ALTER SESSION NO

How do I migrate views from MS SQL 2008 to Oracle 11g through SQL Developer

Is there any way to migrate the views from MS SQL 2008 to Oracle 11g through SQL Developer? Please give me some detail steps. Thanks for your help.

Hi Turloch,
When I use migrate to oracle, I got a problem, the migrate tool create a new schema for me in my case (AZTECA_KSMMS), it migrates all the stuffs under that schema (AZTECA_KSMMS). However my application need the all the Oracle data under schema AZTECA instead of AZTECA_KSMMS. Is there any way to specify specific schema (AZTECA) for target oracle database? Schema remapping is available:
First Capture (separately) then during right click convert on the captured model there is a Specify the conversion options with a Object Naming tab where the schema (and other) name changes are editable.
I have not used this recently.
Also during the migration process, when I choose repository, there is a check box for truncate to reset repository to empty state, Do I need to check that truncate Check Box so the repository will be cleared from last migration?The repository can hold multple migration attempts. Check truncate to get rid of previous attempts information. This cleans up the repository - not the destination database.
There are also online database and offline database options during the migration process, what are the difference between these two choices? After I migrated to Oracle, all my views has a red cross icon next to it. Does that mean the view migration is failed or not? Please give me your comments. Thanks for your help.offline: for big (amount of data) databases with simple data types,
uses bcp + files + scripts + sqlldr.
online: for small (amount of data) databases (easier),
uses (Java) jdbc.
The view is likely to be broken - recompiling it may help.
The Oracle schema is created using a .sql file - see under generated in the directory you gave originally in the wizard. There is a .out file that contains the result of running this script including any errors. During conversion there are also likely to be warnings displayed on the UI.
There may be a single issue that is causing multiple issues - if viewa depends on functionb, and functionb is broken, viewa will also fail.

Copying SQL Script from Oracle SQL Developer into Excel with formatting

I need to copy a SQL Script into Excel in order to develop some VBA code. Is there any nice way that I can copy SQL Script from Oracle SQL Developer into Excel and retain its formatting? I am a stickler for having legible, readable SQL and like to have all my columns lined up and aliases lined up. When we used to use SQL Navigator, the tab formatting seemed to copy and paste just fine. Now that we have migrated to Oracle SQL Developer, the formatting seems to get all messed up.
And suggestions are greatly appreciated and Thanks in advance for your review and am hopeful for an answer.
Thanks.
PSULionRP

I suppose you want a real tabulator instead of spaces. You can configure this in the preferences (SQL Formatter - Oracle). You have to apply it then to your existing code (e.g. CTRL-F7), but new code should get it right from the start.
Hope that helps,
K.

Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?

Hi all,
I wish to ask is there any possibility to run Run sql statements in PL/Sql Developer without installing Oracle database?
Regards.

Hello Jimmy,
this is the forum for the tool SQL Developer and, as the title says, *(Not for general SQL/PLSQL questions)*.
PL/Sql Developer is not an Oracle tool, but from allound allroundautomations.
And you need access to a database to run SQL statements. This does not need to be one installed by yourself.

Running SQL developer with Oracle XE

I am running SQL Developer 1.5 against Oracle 10g XE for a quick interface to practice SQL and PL/SQL. Before running any scripts to create tables, I see a huge number of tables, views, etc. already created for my user HR (which I unlocked in Oracle XE) and any other user I create. What can I do to prevent these tables from appearing? Which ones are necessary for processing? I realize that these are old versions of SQL Developer and Oracle XE but they are much quicker to install for my purposes than the newer editions. Thank you.

Get the latest SQL Developer instead right away; it's no "install" just unzip and go.
Above suggested role, is one of the predefined, to-be deprecated roles, and should not be used. Instead use CREATE SESSION privilege for relevant users and preferrably create your own application-specific roles. See the Security Guide for more info.

Installed Oracle Warehouse Builder which broke SQL Developer

Version 1.5.4 build MAIN-5940
SQL Developer worked fine. I installed Oracle Warehouse Builder and now SQL Developer cannot make a connection when I click on a connetion in the connectons window. When I look at the properties of the connection they look fine and when I click the "test" button I get a success message. When I click the "connect" button it appears to connect. However, When I click a connection on the navigator window I get this error message
Invalid connection information specified.
Verify the URL format for the speicified driver.
Vendor Code 0
I reinstalled SQL Developer but no help.

Don't know OWB, but I asume it installs some version of client, which could be picked up by sqldev.
If the problem really is that client, here's something that usually does it: trick sqldev by changing your ORACLE_HOME within a batch file inside sqldev's folder. This would force using the supplied thin driver:
set ORACLE_HOME=%CD%
start sqldeveloper.exeHope that helps,

Problem with getting started with the SQL Developer in oracle 11g

I downloaded the oracle 11g from the oracle site and installed it on my machine.Now i want to write the sql queries and practise them......so i tried this:start\oracle11gHome\ApplicationDevelopment\Sqldeveloper . But I get a messagebox with a browse button asking me to "Enter the full pathname for java.exe"
what is this all about?Do i need to install jave in my host machine?
how to solve this problem?

hi
If you are asked to enter the full pathname for java.exe, click Browse and find java.exe. For example, the path might have a name similar to C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.5.0_06\bin\java.exe.
