Problems trying to use built-in OWB 11.2 on Oracle RDBMS 11.2 (64 bit)

I recently installed Oracle Enterprise RDBMS 11.2.0.1.0 (64 bit) on my 64-bit Windows 7 machine. I'm now trying to get the built-in OWB 11.2 installation working as well. I managed to create a repository on my database using the Repository Assistant. But I can't seem to get OWB Design Center to run at all: it crashes out with a Windows message "application cannot be started" as soon as it tries to run owbclient.bat.
I've tried starting the Control Center Service via the options on the Warehousebuilder/Admin menu, and this seems to work - at least the status comes back as "available" when I click the "Check status" button - but the Repository Browser doesn't work either: the URL looks OK but there's nothing there.
As far as I can tell I've followed the installation/configuration steps OK, but I can't work out what else I need to install/do to get an OWB client talking to a local OWB installation on a local Oracle 11.2 database. It really shouldn't be this hard.
Has anybody else encountered/resolved the same problems?
Or should I just scrap my installation and start again from scratch?

Thanks, Richard.
I downloaded Oracle 11gR2 for 64-bit Windows only a couple of weeks ago, so I would have expected the built-in OWB client installation to be compatible with 64-bit Windows as well. Maybe that's just a crazy dream.
In the end, I gave up on the built-in OWB. Instead, I trashed the existing OWB installation in the database completely, then installed the OWB stand-alone client in a separate home on the same machine instead, re-installing the OWB schemas etc and creating a fresh repository on the DB in the process. This seems to work so far - at least I can log in to the OWB Design Center client as my repository user, which is a major step forward.
I dunno - I've been working with Oracle for 20 years, but their installation processes always seems to trip me up somewhere with missing components, incompatible elements, screwed up network addresses, and so on. Guess I'm just a slow learner.

Problem trying to use a group by clause

hey good day,
i'm trying to use a group by clause in my application, but I'm getting the following error.

This error message is not from oracle, btu from your reporting tool. it might be MS Access or whatever other tool that you use. Some of these tools want a unique value to identify the current row. The logic applied depends on the relationship of your tables. however in your case you could do it without the group by condition. THen the rowid can still be applied to your query.

note the usage of alias names to simplified the select

Using Berkeley DB as a frontend for Oracle RDBMS

Hey there,
One of the JE documents (possibly the architecture one) makes a remark about using JE as a frontend for a centralized RDBMS. Assuming that's being done using a replication-based technology (and I'm posting on the correct forum), can you guys provide me some pointers as to how that works? Perhaps in the same vein as TimesTen does --with an addon, can't remember the name now.
If replication is not meant in that context, what other (if any) options are there to have a centralized datastore and local copies maintained over JE?
Thx,
Gokhan Ergul

Hello,
I'm not sure which document you're referring to, but in general Berkeley DB is often used as a cache or front-end for RDBMS information or other information accessible from a central server. For example, it might be used for fast indexed access to a user directory on front-end machines.
Berkeley DB does not have any support for this built-in -- it is up to you to retrieve the data from the central server, store it in Berkeley DB, and synchronize with the central server as required by your application. So if you are asking whether there is built-in support (or an add on) for replication or synchronization between Berkeley DB and an RDBMS, no there is not.
If you have multiple machines running Berkeley DB and you wish to replicate information between them, the Berkeley DB C Edition does have built-in support for this. Berkeley DB Java Edition does not have yet have support for replication between nodes, but this feature is in the works.
If you have additional questions on Berkeley DB Java Edition please use the forum for that product:

Problems, trying to use backup from 5.1.1 iOS Gen 3 iPod does not sync music to 4th gen iOS 6 iPod.

My 3rd Gen iPod's headphone connector is basically shot, I've had it for around if not over two years now; sometimes I'm surprised it lasted this long; since I am not one who usually listens to her music without headphones, this is problematic, .
Luckily, a family memberI know had a gen 4 iPod, 32g, same space amount as my old one, lying around that they don't use anymore, thank goodness.
Well, in one case, not so much. First of all, said iPod was locked with a passcode (the passcode was guessed so many times because no one could remember it, it locked permenantly) so I had to completely wipe it. However, it wasn't so bad, though all the information was lost, I could finally use iOS 6 on an iPod.
Well, iOS turned out to be a huge problem, in the way of synicing my old backup. I have about, um, an estimated 3000 songs on my 3rd gen iPod, that of which are not all on one computer, and are from multiple computers (my desktop / laptop); I thought all the songs would transfer over with the rest of my things. I didn't think the iOS made a difference.
Lo and behold, I was dead wrong.
When my iPod was restored to my previous backup, it had no music, only my pictures and apps were added. I'd call 'it annoyed me' an understatement. I waited all that time for the ipod to restore and the backup to finish, only to get my one hundered pictures and two apps.
I have tried to look up how to extract music from my iPod, but to no avail, my computer recognizes it as a camera and I can only access the picture files; the way I read you have to do it online, you must be able to actually get into the iPod's folders, besides the picture folders, and I can't seem to do that; there was an option in earlier versions of iTunes that allowed the iPod device to be displayed as something other than a camera but it no longer seems to be an option in the new iTunes.
All the programs for extracting files, specialized for iPod file extraction, actually, cost money, which at the moment, I don't have much of, this iPod was given to me by a family member, and I'm lucky I even have it. Manual extraction is also something I've tried but failed miserably at, as mentioned earlier.
I'm really not up for re-synching one by one, I want this to be as quick and painless as possible. I have the available GB for my 3000 songs (I checked). Most of my songs are mp3s, and some are m4as. Not everything is bought, and not everything is going to be able to be downloaded through iCloud on account of the fact that there are, uh, over 2GB worth of songs, so does anyone have any solutions to my problem here? I have over 50gb in my desktop library alone, loads more in my laptop library, and I really don't feel like separating all the songs from my previous iPod into a single playlist, if there's a more efficient, free solution out there....
This would not have been a problem in the first place, if the passcode was not there; but blame the previous owner of the 4th gen iPod for that. She typed it so many times it locked her out. And so, I had to reset, but not without an automatic update for iOS 6, which my gen3 can't update to, because it's, well, outdated.

Connect the iPod to your computer and update to iOS 6.1.3. You need iTunes 10.7 or later on the computer.
iOS 4: Updating your device to iOS 5 or later

Problem trying to use replaceAll with url string

Problems trying to use WRT320n as AP

Hi!
I've been messing with this for days, reading different forums with lots of tips as to how to do this.
It's really frustrating that I can't get it to work, so i'm hoping someone will have the answer
I have my main router, it's a modem/router setup (in one) with a LAN ip: 192.168.1.1 (standard).
I have a ethernet cable from ethernet port 1 in my main router, and wired in ethernet port 1 on my WRT320n.
I started off resetting my WRT320n for 30 seconds, and right after I switched the power off for another 30 seconds. (pulled the cord).
Then I accessed the setup via my laptop which is wired.
Started off setting up the wireless bit, same SSID, encryption and passphrase as my main router (wpa2/AES) Both mixed mode.
Gave the router an ip: 192.168.1.2.
Disabled DHCP.
Basically what I want is, when the signal gets weak from my main router, the WRT320n takes over but uses the main router as DHCP.
I can see that my device get's a LAN ip from my main router, but I have no flow what so ever.
Can't ping anything LAN/WAN side, nothing.
If I wire my laptop to my WRT320n router, I seem to have a connection, as I can ping both the router, and my main router but as soon as I go wireless, no flow.
It's getting very frustrating and I honestly have no idea what to do now, so any help would be much appreciated
Thanks in advance!

Hi Krawlor, what you are trying to do is actually possible if you have a range extender instead of another router. Basically, the reason why you cannot have a seamless connection from the main router to the WRT320N is because even if they have the same SSID, they are being detected by your computer as two separate networks. What you can try to do is setup a different name instead for both networks and set your computer to connect automatically to both. That way, you can identify which one is which and the computer will just be able to connect to the nearest network without you doing it manually.

I get the following error trying to use buildtms with Tux 6.5 and Oracle 8.1.6

I do not get this error using tuxedo 7.1.
/usr/ccs/bin/ld: (Warning) At least one PA 2.0 object file (BS-30e9.o)
was detected. The linked output may not run on a PA 1.x system.
I received the same error when using the buildserver command with one of the -f
files built as a .o file using the CC compiler.

If you run buildclient or buildserver -v, you will see the flags passed
to the compiler. TUXEDO 7 passes +DA1.1, which is going to build a
binary that can run on older HP systems, but not perform as well. If you
want to use the more modern instruction set, you can pass "-f+DA2.0" on
the build line, which will override the DA1.1.
In general, the TUXEDO build utilities are fairly conservative. If you
notice, they do not even pass the optimizer flag, -O, to the compiler.
We feel that you should be building your .o files yourself, using the
appropriate compiler options, and then use our build commands to do the
final linking.
And if you are running on HP, you really need to learn about the
different machine architectures and compiler options. Start with "man
cc".

Using built-in Strings

InDesign stores many strings. I want to use some of them in my UI (to avoid the need to translate) In Scripting you can use "ID/....", If I just put in the string I find that its translated but I get an assert in debug build that string is not translated. If I put in fr file then it doesnt get translated to correct string. How to I get around this issue.
Also using debug build is there anyway to get a list of strings defined in InDesign Database?
Thanks

Does anyone have a solution for this.
I'm trying to use built-in strings, but the asserts are driving me nuts.
Any help appreciated
