Thanks

Hi Fabio,
You will have to install the runtime part of the software on the SUN box, and make sure to run the assistants there as well. After you have done this you can remotely install the runtime repository.
This should be in the install and configuration guide.

I need to delete row 33
How can i do this
Regards

Hi,
okay...for Operations like max, min, avg, etc. you must use an Aggregation in a Mapping.
Delete Operations you must handle in the Table Characteristics.
(Right Click on top of a Table --> Context Menu --> choose delete).
To come to your Target you must made several Steps in the Mapping and lead the Data through the Conditions.

Problem with OWB Paris (case expression)

I've got a little problem with defining an attribute property. I've defined a simple case statement: case when LKP_IN.TEST_TAB_ID is null then 'INS' else 'UPD' end. When I validate the expression I get the following error message:
Line 1, Col 8:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "when" when expecting one of the following:
. ( * @ % & = - + ; < / > at in is mod remainder not rem
<an exponent (**)> <> or != or ~= >= <= <> and or like LIKE2_
LIKE4_ LIKEC_ between || multiset member SUBMULTISET_
The symbol ". was inserted before "when" to continue.
Line 1, Col 50:
PLS-00103: Encountered the symbol "THEN" when expecting one of the following:
; and or
Needless to say that this worked well with OWB 10g R1. Any clue?
Thanks in advance
Jörg

Hello, Jörg
To what database are you trying to deploy your mapping? It seems that db version is pre-9i?
If so, note that CASE statement is unavailable in PL/SQL until Oracle 9i its available only in SQL (in pre-9i Oracle had different code from SQL and PL/SQL interpretation, after 9i it share interpreter code). The compilation error may appear in ROW-based parts of package: OWB generates code that calls CASE statement directly in PL/SQL it cause error.
To avoid deployment error wrap this expression component by some operator (order, dedup, join, set). In this case OWB pack expression along with wrap operator in SQL statement and package will compile.
Where were discussion here (in forum) about using analytical function in mapping the same approach works for CASE / DECODE if deploying to pre-9i database.

Problems with OWB 11.2 on Microsoft Windows Server 2003

hi,
i get the following error message after the installation from OWB 11.2 on a Windows 2003 server:
If i want to open the Design Center:
"Unable to create an instance of the Java Virtual Machine:
Located at path:
C:\oracle\OWB112\jdk\jre\vin\client\jvm.dll"
In the command box behind:
WARNING: Unknown directive: SetSkipJ2SDKCheck
Could not reserve enough space for object heap
First i tried to raise the heap size (with -xmx1024M) ----> don't work
Thanks...

Hi,
We ran into the same issue (on Server 2003) just last week. The problem was indeed the java heap size, but instead of making it larger we had to reduce it.
Instead of passing the value on the command line, you can also change it in the configuration file. This file is to be found in the OWB installation folder: .../owb/bin/owb.conf
In this file, changing the line
AddVMOption -Xmx768m
to
AddVMOption -Xmx512m
did the trick for us...

Problem with OWB export ext table from dev to prod not the same

Hi everyone,
I created a lot of external table in dev and everything works fine, but as I did a mdl export in production about half of my ext tables dont work anymore and I found in the script created by the export/import in OWB something strange: here is a exemple of script :
CREATE TABLE TBL_AGENTNOTREADYBREAK_EXT
STARTDATETIME VARCHAR2(23 BYTE),
DSTSTATUS INTEGER,
SWITCHID INTEGER,
AGENTID INTEGER,
NOTREADYREASON INTEGER,
INTERVALDURATION INTEGER,
INTERVALID INTEGER,

DURATION INTEGER,
ROLLEDUP INTEGER
ORGANIZATION EXTERNAL

LOCATION (SOURCE_FICHIER_LOCATION:'Stat_AgentNotReadyBreakdown_I.dat')
REJECT LIMIT UNLIMITED
NOPARALLEL
NOMONITORING;
in dev the OWBUNESED# does not exist it is rather the name of the field between double quote as they are in the first part of the script.
Why is that?, cause when I change the script in the database then my tables are accessing the data correctly. What caused this difference. Am I using the wrong method to deploy in Production?
Database version 10R2

Thank you all

Hi Oleg,
Yes I did check the box for dependencies, you must note that I have something like 20 file definitons hence external tables and only 5 or 6 that had the problem, solving it by hand, still wandering what went wrong.

Problem with OWB :VLD-3069 : Echec du test de la connexion

HI EVERY BODY,
can some one help me? i have this message error when i try to execute my process flow :

thx

You are using a regular Oracle database schema (since it says the connection was successful, but the version of workflow couldn't be obtained) and have not installed Oracle Workflow into this schema. You need to install the workflow component;

Minor question / problem with OWB 10gR2 demo tutorial

Hi, I'm working on the OWB tutorial demo for 10gR2 that was just released, and have a question. At the start of the chapter on "Designing ETL Data Flow Mappings", as part of the workflow manager install instructions, it says to execute the following:
grant owb_o_rep_owner to owf_mgr;
I can't find the role owb_o_rep_owner anywhere - should this instead be owb_o_owb_owner?
Thanks in advance,
Scott

One more question - does anyone know how to install the demo / tutorial on a different server? I.e. I've had the DBAs get OWB installed on a QA server, but they are busy and don't have time to do the install of the tutorial. Can I install it remotely some way (note that when I tried, I kept getting errors from OMB saying it couldn't deploy things remotely or something).
Thx in advance,
Scott

Update/Insert Problem with Oracle Warehouse Builder

Hello,
i have update/insert problem with owb.
Situation: I have a source-table called s_account and a target table called w_account_d. In the target table are already data which was filled trough the source table inserts. Now anyone make changes on data on the target table. This changes should now give further on the source table with an update operation. But exactly here is the problem i can´t map back the data to source because that will create a loop.
My idea was to set a trigger but i can´t find this component in owb or is anywhere hidden?
Also i have already seen properties as CDC or conditonal loading in the property inspector of the table, but i have no idea how it works.
Give it other possibilities to modeling this case? or can anyone me explain how i can implement this eventually with CDC?
I look forward for your replies :)

Hi
thanks for your answer. I follow your suggestion and have set the constraints of both tables into the database directly.Nevertheless it doesn´t work to begin. In the next step i found by right click on a table the listpoint "configure" - I goes to "unique key" --> creation method and set here follow options: Constraint State = ENABLE, Constraint Validation = Validate. That error message that appears before by the deployment disappears yet. Now i start the job to test if the insert/update process works right. Finally it seems to work - but not really.
My Testscenario
1. Load the data from source table about the staging area to data warehouse table: Check - it works!
2. Change one data record in source table
3. Load the source table with changed data record once again to staging area: Check - it works!
4. Load new staging area table with the changed data record to data warehouse table: Check it works! BUT, BUT i can not recognize if it is insert or update operation, then under the design window by jobs execution windows is reported "rows selected 98", Rows inserted" is empty and "rows updated" is empty. So i think works not correct, then my opinion if it works correct it should show be "rows updated" 1.
What can yet now still be wrong or forgotten? Any ideas?
*By the way think not 98 rows there is not important if you make an update or insert which performance. It is an example table the right tables have million of records.*
I look forward for your answers :)

Problems with Sequence Operator in OWB

Hi everybody,
i want to use a sequence in my mapping. Now i have two problems.
The first problem is the following. When i want to import my sequence (exists on my DB) i can select the sequence in the Selection Window, but when i click on Import i didn't see it in the Design Center, also there is no window which tells me that i have successfully imported the sequence.
The second problem is, when i drag the Sequence Operator into my Mapping i shows the Selection Window where i have to select the poject and object to bind the operator. But i can't select any object.
Can anyone help me with my problems and tell me how i can use a Sequence and the Sequence Operator in my Mapping
Many thanks in advance.
Greetings

Hi everyone!
I'm having a repeated problem with sequences in OWB: I'm filling a TIME table with 1096 rows. Now matter how and when I create the sequence it always starts with 2 instead of 1. Moreover, the last value of the sequence is 1101, when it was supposed to be 1097 or 1098....
I did achieve the right ouput sometimes, but I must be doing something wrong. Here are the several ways I've tried in OWB:
1) I've created all the sequences by sql code, in SQL DEVELOPER or PLUS*, and then imported to OWB. Because of being imported, I didn't have to deploy each sequence. Then, I've connected (by drag and drop to the canvas mapping) the sequence I wanted with NEXTVAL (as I always do) attached do TIME_ID of table TIME;
2) I've dropped and created, several times(as before), the sequences and never had problems..until now. I've also experimented creating, by scratch, the sequences just in OWB and then deploy them in Control Center. After this, deployed the mapping and executed, just like in 1).
So, the difference lies on how I create the sequences and what are the correct steps to create, deploy (if needed), deploy the map and execute the map.
This is insain and I really need this to work. I've tried so many ways....
Could someone PLEASE help me with this? Any thoughts?

OWB 11.2.0.1 SAP LOCATION: Problem with separate FTP Server connection

Hello,
hope somebody can help me. We are working on a BI Project by our Customer with a Exadata Machine.
The Goal of this project is to have the DWH on the Oracle Exadata machine.
At the Moment we have the Development System on a separate Server with OWB 11.1. and are to get stuck because we can't work with OWB 11.2 with the problem we have.
Separate for the coming Migration we set up for testing a machine with OWB 11.2.0.1 (Exadata is productiv system, so not available for testing)
The SAP System of the customer is on a separate physical Machine as the FTP Server.
The new possibility from the OWB 11.2 SAP Location allowed choose between different transport type, also for a separate FTP Server.
We took FTP as Transport Type and we input the FTP IP Adress, User etc.
The Inputs are all correct, we have also check if its possible to connect the FTP server via fillezilla, via cmd -- all works fine
But OWB 11.2 show us by test the connection this Error:
ENV0032: Location SAP_TEST is invalid. Check that you provided the PASSWORD or+
valid values for at least one of the set of mandatory parameters+
HOST_LOGIN_HOST+
I know that seems as if some is not ok with the password or the other parameters.
But all inputs are correct and the password doesn't contains any special character.
Also the connection to the SAP system works fine with OWB 11.2 but not with the FTP System.
Have somebody experience with this error or on a project by customer with separate SAP and FTP System?
Thanking you in anticipation

Mappings out of synch with OWB repository

Hi,
I have a global problem with my repository, every mapping reports validation errors (many) advising to reconcile inbound or outbound.
First question is how could this happen on such a global scale (affects every mapping) ?
Second is how to fix, when I reconcile inbound a) All the links to columns are lost and I have to manually re-attach which is very risky let alone tedious b) After reconcile inbound some tables dont match what is in the repository (columns missing). The only way around this was to delete and drag the table back into the mapping and re-attach columns.
Third question is, since the prod version of these mappings are running successfully if I deploy a mapping that is out of synch with the repository will it still function as it should ?
Any help appreciated.
Cheers,
Brandon

I think the problem you are having is that your mapping objects are not reconciled to the repository objects. It is purely a logical OWB problem of matching an mapping operator to an OWB object. It should not effect your busines logic or code that is generated by OWB.
The warnings are just that, warnings. If you were missing a connection between objects, you'd get an error.
Even though an operator in your map exists as an object in your repository, they are not properly bound. If your reconcile inbound each object (match by UOID and by name), you should stop getting the warnings.
This is one of those quirks with OWB (at least with 9.2.0.8 that I am using). I noticed that if I import a mapping from another repository, the operators become unbound. I've given up trying to fix them each time. I just ignore the warnings.

Row movement Disabled at DB- creating problems in OWB mapping

Hi All,
We have a OWB mapping 'XXXXX' with Default operating mode set to 'setbased-failover to rowbased' mode.The generation mode is set to 'Row Based'.This is called in a processFlow 'YYY'
This was running fine until sometime ago.
Recently at the database row movement on tables was disabled.
After this the 'YYYY' fails with a 'Warning:ORA-01403: no data found' when it calls 'XXXXX'.
Any idea on what this means.Is it something to do with the row movement disablin done recently?
Is the default operating mode and generation mode combination selected by us valid.
Please provide any inputs /queries by which we can trace the exact problem.
Many Thanks!!

Sridha

I don't think that issue will be with OWB.
take generated code and run in directly in database and check are you getting the same error.

Load SQL Server data with OWB 11.2

Hi,
We are using OWB 11.2 on Oracle Exadata Database Machine X2-2.
We want to load data from multiple SQL Server tables in our DWH on Oracle 11.2 with OWB 11.2
We want to load aprox. 100 million records a day.
I've read some articles about this and the advise was to dump the data from SQL Server to files and load the files with OWB.
We've tried to make a connection to SQL Server with OWB, this only works partially.
In the OWB client I can import the database objects and sample the data from the SQL Server tables (all done on MS Windows client).
From the server I am not able to run a very basic mapping which has a SQL Server source table and a Oracle target table without any difficult transformations.
Is there another method/best practice to get the data over?
I've read something about a database link from Oracle to SQL Server, but I don't know the details.
Is there a tool that runs under Linux that can export data from SQL Server to a text file?
Regards,
Emile

Hi Emile,
regading extracting data from MSSQL with OWB on Unix platform (using Generic Connectivity):
Re: SQLServer access from AIX Warehouse builder
Re: OWB on Solaris Connectivity with SQL SERVER on Windows
We want to load aprox. 100 million records a day.
I've read some articles about this and the advise was to dump the data from SQL Server to files and load the files with OWB.100 million records per day is not a problem for daily extracting from MSSQL Server if you have 1-2 hour.
In my opinion dumping to text file is a bad practice and is unnecessary if customer don't have special requirements (for example for security reason).
SQL Server source table and a Oracle target table without any difficult transformationsIn my opninion the best way process data from MSSQL is to extract data to staging area (schema) on Oracle DB with mappings as simple as possible (ONLY filters, without any join), and most of data processing prefom in Staging area or during moving from staging to DWH.
Also look at OWB user guide (how to use Generic Connectivity in OWB)

Best way to JOIN with OWB 10.2

Hi Gurus,
im a newbie in working with OWB and i also apologize for my englisch. I have the following Issue. Im using Oracle warehousebuilder and i want to load data in a new Table as Table3 from two distinct source table Table1 and Table2.
It should look like this: Table3.col1 = Table1.col2 ; Table3.col2 = Table1.col3; Table3.col3 = Table2.colb.
I mean it is a kind of JOIN but the column from Table3 have to be just the same as the column from Table1 and Table2 and no other combination.
Table1 : col1 | col2 | col3
Table2: cola | colb | colc
Table3: Table1.col2 | Table1.col3 | Table2.colb
Can someone help me?
Thx

Vinzsanity,
The problem is that you are trying to model a query that requires something more than a simple join as you seem to hope..
Joining based on simple table row order is not something relational databases are really designed to do well. They join on values. For example, if you simply try to write basic SQL to make your join you discover the problem:
select t1.col1, t2.colb
from   table1 a,
         table2 b
where a.rownum = b.rownum ;What you get is an ORA-01747 error as the rownum psuedocolumn is not valid in this context. But if you don't find a way to join on roworder you get the crossproduct - which is NOT what you want.
The simplest pure SQL join to get your results as described in your sample data is:
select a.col1, b.cola
from   (select rownum rnum, s.* from table1 s) a,
         (select rownum rnum, t.* from table2 t) b
where a.rnum(+) = b.rnum;but this only implies a possible one-way outer join to meet your described data sample. If you want a full outer join to handle the possibilities where either table could have more or less rows than the other, then
select a.col1, b.cola
from   ((select rownum rnum, s.* from table1 s) a
         full outer join
       (select rownum rnum, t.* from table2 t) b
       on (a.rnum = b.rnum))Now, clearly this is NOT going to me modelled as just a simple join in OWB. First, you need to find a way to add the rownum pseudocolumn to both table result sets in order to be able to join on them. For example, you could use an expression object for each table, dump all of the fields straight from the expression input to the expression output, and then add a rownum column to the output as well. Then join the two with a joiner defined as full outer join on the two rownum fields and map the required columns to the target table.
Or, you could create a view:
Create or replace view table1_And_2_outer_join as
select a.*, b.*
from   ((select rownum rnum1, s.* from table1 s) a
         full outer join
       (select rownum rnum2, t.* from table2 t) b
       on (a.rnum = b.rnum))And use that view as the source object in your mapping.
Or create two views:
Create or replace view table1_with_rownum as
select rownum rnum1, s.* from table1;
Create or replace view table2_with_rownum as
select rownum rnum2, t.* from table2 tAnd then use the two views as your sources and join them together using the joiner object defined as outer join on the rownumber values.
Any of those three options will get you what you seem to want.
Cheers,
Mike
