Oracle warehouse builder forum

Hi there
We are using OWB 10G Release 2 but whenever use upgrade as the deploy action it fails. We need to use replace which is a nuisance since wipes all the data.
Is there some permission/security setting which causes this?
Many Thanks

Hi.
What do you mean by "failed"? Without giving any more information it is hard to help :)
I guess you are changing some table definitions in OWB and then want to apply those changes to the database.
If the connection you use is not the same as the schema owner (i.e. your connection logs in as user A but accesses schema B) then you will not have the privileges to alter the table without having the correct system privileges (basically ALTER ANY TABLE privs).

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder Project Demo

    Can the OWB Project demo run on Oracle 9i Release 2 and Oracle 9i Warehouse Builder? If yes, are all the steps in OWBDemoGuide.doc similar? Thanks.

    I've got this to work by installing OWB 3i, then using the metadata upgrade wizard to upgrade the .mdl file to the OWB 9i format. It then installs ok (not sure if it runs though...)
    You'd probably get a better/quicker reply posting to the Business Intelligence > Oracle Warehouse Builder forum in future :-)

    Hello!

    Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) product management and development will monitor the discussion forum on regular basis.
    Please use this forum for asking product related questions, giving feedback, suggesting enhancements, reporting problems and requesting collateral.

    Bonjour "Etudiant from Tunisia",
    I'm not sure what you mean with "please give me the user/password".
    As far as I know there is no online OWB available where you could try out the product (if that is what you mean).
    If you would like to learn more about OWB, read online documentation or for instance the link that is provided in an earlier post in this thread.
    Otherwise simply install OWB and try it yourself. The Installation and Configuration Guide is clear enough even without much experience installing Oracle software, and the OWB User Guide provides some basic insight on working with OWB itself.
    Good luck, Patrick
    ps If people are still expecting what Igor mentioned when he started this forum ("Oracle Warehouse Builder (OWB) product management and development will monitor the discussion forum on regular basis"), don't count on it; fortunately the product itself has been around long enough now, there are quite some users that can share usable insights and/or drop some useful lines on the new threads... ;-)

    I have checked log file/Trace file/Alert log files ,but there is no error in these files.
    If any body have any solution about it,Please reply ASAP.I am stucked in this problem from last 7-8 days.

    Thanks & Regards

    Thanks for your reply Igor.
    As posted the OWB 10.1.0 software is running against a 9.2.0.8.0. database, so OWB still uses DBMS_JOB instead of DBMS_SCHEDULER in this database. In addition I already tested scheduling a simple job to run an OS command as suggested in note 365539.1 , and job scheduling is working fine.
    There are no invalid objects in this database.

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder 10.1.0.4 on Windows 2008 - 64 bits

    Hi Gurus.
    I'm currently working with a customer who wants to migrate all their database-servers to Windows 2008 on 64-bits processors. They're using Oracle Database Enterprise Edition 10g Release 2 (10.2.0.4) and Oracle Warehouse Builder (10.1.0.4). The OWB-clients will still run on Windows XP. I've used the "Certify"-funcionality on Metalink, but it doesn't really answer my questions. (It does* ansver some of my questions, but it also raises a few new ones....)
    My main question is: Can you run serverside OWB 10.1.0.4 on Enterprise Edition 10.2.0.4 for Windows 2008 64-bits?
    Thanks in advance:-)
    Best regards
    Helge

    No.
    Oracle Warehouse Builder version 10.1.x was desupported on 16-JUL-2007.
    The desupport notice is available on Metalink (Note 376384.1).
    The Warehouse Builder installation as part of the 11.1.0.7 installation should be certified, but I cannot find specifics.

  • Oracle warehouse builder - OWB & Oracle 10g Db on SuSE

    hi folks,
    i have Oracle 10g db on my laptop; and it runs great!
    but since i am trying to gain skills in data warehousing and business inteligence, and after reading about oracle warehouse builder, i decided to install it on my laptop as well.
    but i can not get my head around the docs for installing OWB.
    is the only requirement for OWB to have an OWB_ORACLE_HOME environment variable on linux? how do we start OWB service automatically?
    has anyone installed OWB with oracle on the same pc?
    i would appreciate your comments.
    thanks in advance,
    Nicolas

    Thanks Andreas,
    i have printed and followed the advice on these documents.
    that is how i have got confused about this OWB_ORACLE_HOME.
    i would very much appreciate if could provide me with some brief description of which environment variables are needed for OWB installation.
    regards,
    nicolas

  • Oracle Applications Release 12 and Oracle Warehouse Builder 10gR2

    Hi
    I'm trying to deploying process flows to Workflow but I get the following error:
    RPE-02054: The version of Oracle Workflow is incompatible with this Control Center. Required 2.6.3, but found 2.6.0.
    Comment I found on another thread: "As far Workflow Versions with Oracle Applications is concerned, it is always 2.6.0. Workflow is not identified with its 2.6.x versioning in Oracle Applications. The 2.6.x.x versioning is purely for Workflow Standalone."
    Oracle Warehouse Builder Client: 10.2.1.31
    Oracle Warehouse Builder Repository: 10.2.0.1.0
    Oracle Applications Release 12
    Any help would be appreciated.

    May be the excerpt from the other thread is a response I posted.
    So, when you say, deploying process flows to Workflow, I do not understand what you are doing exactly? If this involves the Oracle Warehouse Builder you may want to explain a little more in detail since I do not understand how OWB works with Workflow. But as far as I have heard, it is Workflow standalone that is packaged with OWB but you are deploying into Oracle Applications.
    What is the version of Oracle Workflow Builder you are using?
    Is the steps you are doing certified to be done with Oracle Applications R12?
    Thanks

  • Oracle Warehouse Builder 10.1.0.4

    Hi All,
    I am searching for Oracle Warehouse builder 10.1 release which is compatible with Oracle database 10gR2 on solaris x86 server.
    I have found softwares for solaris sparc but nothing seems available for oracle 10gR2 on solaris x86.
    OWB 10.1.0.3 is compatible with oracle database 10gR1 and owb 10.1.0.4 and owb 10.1.0.5 are only compatible with 10gR2.
    Currently we are facing some problem with Owb 10.2.0.1 so we have to relay on owb 10.1 release.
    Can any one help me to find link for downloading
    OWB 10.1.0.4 or 10.1.0.5 for solaris x86 server...
    Thanks

    I am still unable to find any owb 10.1.x.x release for solaris x86 environment.
    Do any one have any link for this??

  • ORA-06502 pl/sql in Oracle warehouse builder

    Hi,
    I have a problem with using Name and Address operator in Oracle Warehouse builder. When I mapped a table which has more than 7735 rows to another table.
    I will get the error "ORA-06502: PL/SQL: numeric or value error: character string buffer too small".
    How can I solve this problem?
    Thanks a lot!

    The problem is happening again.
    When it happens, if I quit and I start again Oracle XE, the problem does not happen at first, but happens again after a while (the duration before the error is not always the same). If I increase the number of lines that are printed for the result of a request, I can induce the error; if I decrease the number of lines, the error is not happening.
    Here is one of the request (that request returns about 5000 rows) that cause the error, and the complete error message:

  • Confuse about Configuring Oracle Warehouse Builder

    newbie here... i am abit confuse on how to configure the Oracle Warehouse builder...
    I have 2 database... 1 source and 1 new one...
    I understand that i have to install the Runtime Repository in the database computer and the Target Schema through the client's computer...
    so all this while... i am just confuse about what to install into the source database and what to install into the new database...
    Please help...

    Location is a logical entity in your OWB design that can be either a database schema, a flat file location, an SAP application location etc. Once you complete your design and are ready to deploy the design into the runtime environment, you will have to 'register' the locations by providing the physical details of your location to OWB (user name/password, database, hostname etc.).
    I am a bit confused by your configuration - are the source and the target in two separate schemas or in the same schema? Your posts are somewhat contradictory.
    If they are in two different schemas, you should:
    1. Create a source module pointing to a source schema (you can then import data object structures from the source schema - i.e. you don't have to create source tables manually in OWB, but you can import them into the module automatically). This module will have a source location (for example SRC_LOC).
    2. Create a target module where all your target objects will be (i.e. where the data will be loaded). This module will have a different location (TGT_LOC). In your target module you will also create the mappings.
    3. When deploying, you will register SRC_LOC with the physical details of your source schema, while the target location will be registered with the physical details of the target schema. The code generated by OWB during deployment will make sure that the data is extracted from the source schema and inserted into the target schema (either by generating and using DB links or by qualifying the schemas in the extraction queries if source and target are in the same database instance).
    On the other hand, if both source and target objects are in the same db schema, you can have all your objects in the same target module and you will only have to register the location of this target module when deploying (LOC_TGT).
    That said, there can be a variety of reasons why there is no data in the target after you run the extract mapping that have nothing to do with locations, such as logical errors in the mapping (an inappropriate filter or a wrong join), insufficient privileges etc. I suggest you take a look in the runtime audit browser that should contain the error messages relative to your mapping.
