Pi7.1 SQL Metadata import

Hi,
As you all know that in 7.1, we can also import metadata from DB servers.
My basic question is after we import as an external definition which will give u the layout of the structure, how do u specify the standard table name and access.
I do believe we have a separete structure for JDBC that must be given for mapping.
Please do share some light on this!
Regards
Krish

The importer tool simplies the job of obtaining the schema of the DB table. (instead of using 3rd party tools like XMLSPY.)
PI specific Data type has to be created to perform DB operations. The external thus imported using importer utility can be used directly under "access" node without typing all the DB fields again.

Data Services 12.2.3.0 BODI-1112015 Adapter metadata import failed

Hi Experts,
I am using Data Services 12.2.3.0.
I have an issue in importing functions through 'Adapter' type datastore into Data Services. I can open the datastore and see the list of functions available, but when I try to import them, I get the error BODI-1112015 Adapter metadata import failed.
The setup and the errors are as below.
The adapter datastore is setup as below.
I built a new keystore called clientkeystore.jks in the ..\bin.Then created the .CSR file, and then imported the signed chained (I believe it's chained certificate) certificate of the server hosting the wsdl into the keystore.
Thanks for the post http://scn.sap.com/thread/1589052 . After changing the metadata character set to utf-8, I can see a list of functions when I open this New_Datastore in Data Services. It proves that the setup for the datastore has no problem parsing the wsdl file and give me the list of functions in it.
However, the error appears when I try to import them.
Error is:
Adapter metadata import failed. Error message: (BODI-1112015) Error parsing the <TheFunctionToBeImported> included in the XML sent by the adapter to represet a function <Error importing XML Schema from file <adapter_schema_in.xsd>:<XML parser failed: Error <Schema Representation Constraint: Namespace 'http://result.form.v81.api.keysurvey.com' is referenced without <import> declaration> at line <13>, char <46> in < < xsd:schema xmln:xsd=http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmln:tns="http://result.form.v81.api.keystore.com" xmlns:diws="http://businessobjects.com/diwebservice" targetnamespace="http://www.businessobjects.com/diwebservice"><xsd:import namespace='http://v81.api.keysurvey.com' schemaLocation='C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\ext\webservice\FormResultManagemenetgetRespondentsgetRespondents0.xsd'/>
<xsd: import namespace='http://result.form.v81.api.keysurvey.com' schemaLocation='C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\ext\webservice\FormResultManagemenetgetRespondentsgetRespondents2.xsd'/> ........
When comparing it with the wsdl file(as below), it is worth nothing that the schemaLocation is changed to a local directory under C:\Program Files\Business Objects\BusinessObjects Data Services\ext\webservice while it was not the case in wsdl. The schemaLocation is on the server.
I am wondering if the redirection from the server specified in the wsdl file to the local directory has caused this error. The error 'namespace is reference without <import>' is apparently wrong as the <import> is just there.
Or there is any other reason behind this.
I appreciate any adivce or question from you!

I have reached the exact same error as this post http://scn.sap.com/thread/3190403
The error is
[Mon Jun 18 23:14:28 2012] [error] ..\..\src\core\deployment\conf_builder.c(876) Specifyingservices and modules directories using axis2.xml but path of the library directory is not present

As it is identified as an version problem, this issue is not going to be investigated any further.
As an alternative, can try to use Oracle 11g SOAP_API.sql.

SQL Server Import and Export Wizard Issue

i am trying to export SQL data into excel to send out weekly reports. I have created a view and a SQL account has access to this view; however, I am unable to successfully export the data. In preview I see all of the data yet it fails on the

Hi astro,
Please ensure that you haven’t renamed or moved the destination excel file during the exporting process. Also make sure that “Create destination table” option is checked as below screenshot and the SQL statement is correct.

SQL*Loader Import Problem

Hi,
I am trying to import some data from .txt file to a table in Oracle DB using TOAD- Sql*Loader - Import wizard. I was able to load all the files successfully. All the files are pipe(|) delimited. But in one of the files, when the values for the field is NULL - it is populated as ' ' (space), I have trouble in loading these files.
Suppose I have the fields f1, f2, f3, f4 in the .txt file. And say I have the data as following (and delimter as pipe(|)):
f1 f2 f3 f4 f5
r1|01|xyz|123|abc
r2|02| |234|bcd * 3rd column being null(space)
r3| |sam|345|def * 2nd field being null(space)
|04|ram|456|efg * 1st field being null(space)
|05|abc|567|gef * 1st column being null
I have problems loading the records 4,5 using Sql*loader, as the first field being null, the data is not being loaded properly. Is there any alternative way of loading this file into my table. Please help me.

Pl post OS and database versions, along with the contents of the loader control file and the loader log file with the errors.

OBIEE 10g/11g RPD as a Data Source - Driver Name for metadata imports

Hi,
I'm trying to use OBIEE's RPD as a relational source in Informatica 9.5.1 PowerCenter Designer. I have the ODBC connection to the OBIEE's BI Server and can connect to it. I'm using OBIEE 10.1.3.4.1 (I also need to do something similar with OBIEE 11g). I've posted this question to the Informatica forum as well.
In order to use OBIEE as a third-party relational data source, Informatica needs OBIEE's DLL for metadata imports.
I've tried, with no luck, NQSODBC.DLL & NQSDRIVER.DLL.
Does anyone know what DLL it might be? It could be an issue on Informatica's end as well.
Thanks.

Hi,
For some more details, you can refer to the following document;
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/discoverer/discoverer-metadata-conversion-assi-128504.pdf
My personal expreriences:
The Metadata Conversion Utility is an accellerator / assistant. It does not provide you with an end product. There is some additional handwork requiered. It could be a risk when you copy an old Oracle Discoverer environment. Shit in is shit out. Last but not least; There is not yet a workbook migration utility.

Adapter metadata import failed

I get 'Adapter metadata import failed' error while trying to import a put operation in the Business Objects Data Services designer in the JMSADAPTER type datastore. The xsd file is in place but the error message says that 'File <ADAPTER_MESSAGE_SCHEMA.XSD> is not a valid XML schema. The XSD that I specified in the operation is of a different name, and am not able to figure out where an XSD for this name comes in.
The same job in the same repository happens to work with no errors on a different Job server.The error it gives is 'File <ADAPTER_MESSAGE_SCHEMA.xsd> is not a valid XML Schema specification.'

I have DI 11.7.3.2 and the error is almost the same, BODI-1112010 : metadata import failed, the service is define as:
http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/IAlertPortTypePort
and the wsdl file is:
http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/IAlertPortTypePort/wsdl/v1/alert/services/wowlink/woolworths/com/au/AlertService.wsdl
this service is not using http basic authentication, the security is inside every object.
Looks that DI probably is transparently following the HTTP redirect from
     http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/IAlertPortTypePort?wsdl
to:
     http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/IAlertPortTypePort/wsdl/v1/alert/services/wowlink/woolworths/com/au/AlertService.wsdl
Then when it attempts to resolve v1.alert.services.wowlink.woolworths.com.au.wsdl , it issues a request for:
     http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/ v1.alert.services.wowlink.woolworths.com.au.wsdl
instead issuing a request for:
     http://clwlkd2:19080/.wowlink-services-router-http/services/IAlertPortTypePort/wsdl/v1/alert/services/wowlink/woolworths/com/au/v1.alert.services.wowlink.woolworths.com.au.wsdl
which is where the resource actually is.
Did someone see this redirection issue before?

SQL Server Import Export Wizard fails while trying to retrieve the data from FastObjects Database

Hi Chennie,
Thank you for the post.
Does the issue persists after you use the "Write a query to specify the data to transfer" option instead of “Copy data from one or more tables or views” option? If so, the issue may occur due to incorrect data type matching between the FastObjects database
data types and SSIS data types. In this condition, I don’t think it is necessary to upgrade the SQL Server version. Since you can open the Column Mappings dialog box, please try to modify the data type mapping manually.
In addition, the issue seems to be the same as the issue described in the following blog:

Schedule a SQL Integration Import Script

Hey Everyone! I need some help from the FDM community.
I am currently using FDM 11.1.2.1 and using the Hyperion Essbase adapter to load data to a Planning/Essbase application. I have successfully created a SQL integration import script that connects directly to Oracle EBS, and have manually tested the process up-to-check of the workflow. However, I would like to schedule this process on a nightly basis. I am aware of the batch processing task scheduler and have used it previously, but I am obviously not dumping flat files into the OpenBatch directory nor am I using the Custom General script usually associated with Batch Processing. So, is there a Custom General script that I can use to call on the import integration script so I can schedule such a process?
Please let me know, and thank you for your time!
Sincerely,
Craig

You can do this with the batch. You just create a blank text file with the proper naming convention for the POV you are going to kick off the integration script for and place it in Open batch. The batch will then execute the integration script for the POV when executed.

Hi
Thanks for your reply. Please find my answers below:
1. Have your config your ODI_SDK, ODI_JDBC_DRIVER_JAR. Whether or not the path is correct.
Yes, my paths are correct. I verified it by running it with incorrect paths and it would error out specifying that say "ODI_SDK" not found etc. Only if all my paths are correct it would error out at this level. Also if you see it clearly mentions "Loading ODI repository configuration complete." above.
2. Have you fully install ODI ,because some of jars didn't in the path you config in the metadata-import.bat.
Yes, I have installed ODI and I did a few sample regular DB to DB loads to validate that. Only after this I tried installing the KM.
3. Have you installed some software change the ODI SDK or odi jdbc driver jar.
No
4. This version metadata import tools only use for ODI 11g, because new version ODI has change its sdk, it didn't support ODI 12c right now.
I used ODI 11.1.1.1.7 which is certified for this KM downloaded from edelivery. I am aware 12C is not certified.
5. Did your use RCU to create the ODI master and supervisor.
yes, I used RCU 11.1.1.1.7 to create repositories.
Also, I tried doing this in two isolated environments - one on linux and one on windows. Both gave exactly the same error.
Please help. And let me know if you need any further information.
Thanks in advance.

OWB 11.2, ODBC to SQL Server - metadata import problem

Hi All,
We are using Oracle on 64-bin linux and sql server 2000. We also using OWB11.2 both on Windows and Linux.
We installed open source ODBC on linux (freeTDS) and created dblink to sql server – connection works just fine and we can retrieve data from sql server using standard tools like TOAD, SQLDeveloper, or sqlplus. But when I create ODBC module in OWB11.2 and try to import metadata (tables) from sql server I have the following error:
SQL Exception
SQL Exception
Persistent Layer Error:SQL Exception..
Class Name: CacheMediator.
Method Name: getSQLResult.
Persistent Layer Error Message: ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:
[FreeTDS][SQL Server]Procedure 'sp_columns' expects parameter '@table_name', which was not supplied. {42000,NativeErr = 201}
ORA-00604: error occurred at recursive SQL level 1
ORA-28500: connection from ORACLE to a non-Oracle system returned this message:

ORA-06512: at line 1
ORA-02063: preceding 7 lines from OWB_604
. (etc)
When connected to sql server using the account used in dblink I can execute sp_columns without any trouble so it’s not a security issue.
Did anybody experience the similar problem?
BTW we successfully used similar technique for Sybase as a source and Oracle (10.2) as a target using OWB 10.2 a few years ago.
Any help is appreciated,
Thanks,
Alex

Hi Alex
It may be a problem with the ODBC driver for the queries executed to import the catalog metadata. Sometimes you get drivers that 'seem' to work for querying the data but for access the metadata to reverse engineer problems arise. Are you using the latest greatest version of the ODBC driver? If logging was turned on in the client (see here ) probably would be able to get the last query fired at the gateway and this would be the culprit.
One alternative option is to use a remote database gateway agent (now possible in 11g) on the Windows machine, which you can then access from your linux host.
Cheers

XML Metadata import - Memory Problem

I am trying to import metadata through "extras->XML Import\Export" Option giving the path to XML file (file:D:\RSAD_C07.xml). It has parsed the file and saved some objects but half-way it stopped with the error that I pasted below. Its an 8GB RAM server and we are not running any other processed. CPU utilization is around 15%. I am not able to understand why this is happening. Please advise me on what to do.
ERROR DETAILS
Memory low. Leave the transaction before taking a break!
Message no. 00072
Diagnosis
The memory on your application server is running low.
System Response
You are exclusively using one of the few work processes running on the application server. So that this does not hinder the other users too much, the work process is released if you do not work with it for a few minutes. The system terminates the transaction, causing you to lose data that you previously entered.
Procedure
Continue to work as normal and exit the transaction before you take a long break.

Hi Ankush,
i am not too familiar with the XML part, but anyway this does not appear to be the problem. What i understand is that you are using a frontend dialog process for uploading the XML stuff. in this case it actually does not matter how much RAM you have installed in total, because the single dialog work process has only a fraction of total RAM assigned as working memory. hence my recommendation is to cut the XML file into smaller packets for import.
maybe you can tell us details once you are successfully done with the case?
THX & regards,
Harry

Inserted 2rows.
Failed to insert 1rows.
SQL Error:ORA-12899: value too large for column "BCRCEK"."BLA"."Y" (actual: 4, maximum: 1)
I think there is a bug, because there must be generated NULL without apostrophe.
insert into BLA (X,Y) VALUES(3,NULL);

Hi Barry,
   That's[b] GREAT NEWS !!!.
   So, i just update current release 1.1.2.25 to 1.1.2.25.79 ?
Thanks for the great work.

SQL Developer import from Excel or CSV not creating new table

I am sure I have done this with previous version of SQL Developer. I am now running 1.5.4 with patches update from 5/27/2009. I am running on Windows XP. When I start the import wizard I get to the point were the varify button appears. I click Verify. Everything is successful. The next button is grayed out. The send to worksheet is not checked. I press the finish button and the new table is not created.
I don't get any error message. I refresh my table list and the new table is not created. I can create new tables using SQL Developer so I don't think it can be a privelege problem. I know I did this a few weeks ago. I am not sure what version of SQL Developer I was running. But I have updated to the latest and greatest since then.

I wanted to import and use my table data from MS Excel 2010 in SQL developer Version 3.1.05.
I was told that SQL does not import .xls data. For that reason, I was searching for a script which Import data from excel to SQL developer. I tried many different forums DBS blogs. Then eventually I found the solution inside the SQL developer itself.
In your Editor window, There would be options like,
1. Columns | Data | Constraints |Grants | Sta...... "so on"
2. In second row, you can find a drop box with certain table options. Select the last option "Import Data"
THERE YOU GO.
do accordingly to your need and you will get the data as well its scripts.
I hope this would help you all. Thanks. :-)

Notes on Sql Developer - Importing - XLS

This isn't really a question, but I thought I should get the record of my tribulations posted so someone else won't have to work as hard as I did.
Please note when using import in sql dev - first, the file MUST be a xls formated BINARY file. I received a file with the extension xls, but it was actually a tab delimited csv, and the only message import gave me was : 'an error has occurred' , and then a stack trace with :
java.io.IOException: Invalid header signature; read 664572811392150337, expected -2226271756974174256
at org.apache.poi.poifs.storage.HeaderBlockReader
A ascii csv would cause this since it doesn't have the binary header. Incidentally, poi is a java (apache) library for reading microsoft file formats.

You can try changing the column in the excel to general datatype before you attempt to load using sql developer.
alternate way...
You can save the excel file as .csv file. Once saved you should be able to use the sql*loader to load the data.
the sqlldr command for online
sqlldr userid control=test.ctl log=test.log bad=test.bad data=test.csv discard=test.txt
the test.ctl should be as follows
load data
infile 'test.csv'
into table constraint_chk
fields terminated by ','
(column1 char(10),
column2 date,
column3 number) ;
please let me know, if you need more info...
