Change of a database link in OWB

I have a good suggestion to change a a database link when a server is moved to another location (in that case the database link of the source module has to be changed)
In OWB 9.0.2 it's not impossible to delete a database link in OWB, so you have to do it manually
(in 9.0.4 it should be possible, but this version is also not easy to use).
- Start SQL Plus and log in as the schema on which the OWB repository is created (e.g. OWB).
- Drop the database link ('drop database link <dblink name>')
- Create a new database link in the same schema with the new parameters, e.g:
CREATE DATABASE LINK "<dblink name>"
CONNECT TO "<...>" IDENTIFIED BY "<...>"
USING '(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (Host = <hostname>) (PORT = 1521))) (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = <sid> )))'
Done!
No stupid errors in OWB when you create the database link in OWB itself.

Maurice

Hello, all the errors you've been given are related to missing objects.
You should re-create/import the location for you process flows before importing the process flows themselves.
Also verify that you have imported the procedures FLSTG.PROC_GET_ETL_DATA_DATE and FL_TRG_FLSTG.PROC_UPDATE_RECO_CTL because you use them in your process flows so you need them: OWB refuses to import a process flows if some objects are missing because it would break some links.
In general process flows should be imported where you have all the other objects in the repository because they are the final step and they reference many other objects.
Hope this helps - Antonio

This is good while running OWB repository assitant

hi friends
if u face to this propblem while running OWB repository assitant :
Exception occurred in 'processSPAWN'.java'lang.Exception: Error: java.sql.SQLException: ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: java.sqlSQLException: OWBSYS is not granted access to c:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\/owb/bin/admin/rtrepos.propterties: Please run UnifiedRepos/reset_owbcc_home.sql specifying the path of the Oracle Home from which the Control Center Service is being run.
follow in this way :
First, unlock the OWBSYS user account and assign a password.
Second, edit the reset_owbcc_home.sql script with the following entry and then save the file:
dbms_java.grant_permission('OWBSYS','java.io.FilePermission',path||'\owb\bin\admin\rtrepos.properties','read,write');
( take a look @ this link :
http://ezinearticles.com/?ORA-29532-Error-During-Oracle-11g-Warehouse-Builder-Install-on-Microsoft-Vista&id=1235302 )
then
check OWBSYS privilages : be sure this user has these privilages : grant any object privilage and grant any privilage
these privilages are not in cat_owb.sql and sometimes after creating a new DB are not default privilage for OWBSYS user .
pls inform me if u have any comment .
cheers

Hi,
the first look at Oracle Univeral Installer logfile for details on error.
Reason for this error can be (for example) inappropriate database instance configuration.
Check that you configured your database according installagion guide
http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B31080_01/doc/install.102/b28224/reqs01.htm#BABFEHDB
What exact OWB release are you using - 10g R1 or 10g R2.
As I remember it is impossible install base release 10g R1 (10.1.0.2) on Oracle Database 10g R2
(this is supported only from OWB 10.1.0.4).

Oleg

Error in starting OWB repository browser listener

Is this caused by something with the configuration?
Jeffrey

Hi ,
What is your OWB version ?
If it is 10.2 then read the following
With Warehouse Builder 10.2.0.X, the Repository Browser Listener is only supported on Windows x86-32bit and linux x86-32bit client machine.
So start the Warehouse Builder Repository Browser Listener on Windows/Linux x86-32bit client machine
For 11g refer MOS Note 469422.1

Error while registering user with owb repository.

Hi all,
I am using owb 10gr2.
I am trying to register a user with owb repository. I am getting below error.
ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object
But when i try to deploy the mapping, it is showing a message
Cannot deploy PL/SQL maps to the target schema because it is not owned by the Control Center.
I am sure the user is not registered with owb repository. But i don't know why it is showing 0RA - 00955 error. Can somebody tell me what is the possible error.
vasu

Hi,
the user was created outside the owb ("... because it is not owned by the Control Center") direct in the database. You must first use the repository assistant (advanced options) to make him to a target user.
Then you can register him in the owb as repository user with special rights.

External Links in KM Repository

Hi,
How to create external links in KM repository in Web Dynpro Java application?
Thanks
Sundar

Hi,
Creating Links
When you create a link, you can specify whether it is internal or external. You create a link as follows:
IResource link = parent.createLink(u2033linku2033, u2033/documents/fileu2033,LinkType.INTERNAL, null);
Identifying the Link Type
It is useful to know the link type because it gives an indication of the operations that are possible on the link target. The repository framework distinguishes between internal and external links. Internal links refer to resources that are integrated in the repository framework, whereas external links refer to objects that are not integrated in the repository framework, for example, documents stored on a web site. If a link is internal, you can access the target as a resource that offers the operations associated with repository framework resources. If a link is external, you can only access the target as a URL and not as a resource object. As a consequence, most of the operations associated with resources are not available.
Determining the link type is therefore often a prerequisite for handling a link target effectively.
The code extract shows how you can find out what type of link is involved.
if( LinkType.INTERNAL.equals(resource.getLinkType()) ) {
// resource is an internal link to another resource
    IResource target = resource.getTargetResource();
    if( target == null ) {
        // link is broken, because target does not exist anymore as a resource,
        // so use the RID of the internal linku2019s target instead.
        URL targetURL = resource.getTargetURL();
} else if( LinkType.EXTERNAL.equals(resource.getLinkType()) ) {
// resource is an external link to an URL
URL target = resource.getTargetURL();
} else { // if( LinkType.NONE.equals(resource.getLinkType()) )
// resource is not a link
The repository framework also distinguishes between internal links that are static and dynamic. Dynamic links follow their target after the execution of operations like copy and move, whereas static links do not. When you create a link, the repository framework decides whether it will be static or dynamic.

How to create an OWB Repository in a database

By default a database will have a repository installed into it. One has to create a workspace using Repository assistant within the repository.
database> repository> workspace
Question:
1. How can I create a new repository [either in same or a new database]?
2. Can one database have multiple repositories or is it limited to only 1?
Thanks!

>
Also, on 10g, how do I go about creating a repository.
Please note I'm aware of using Repository assistant to:
create workspaces on 11g and
create repository owners on 10g [we create owners and not workspaces on 10g]
In both the cases where do I define a specific repository, where do I give the name of repository etc.
In 10g ,OWB Owner is nothing but the schema which holds OWB repository
If you are creating a new OWB Owner that means it is a new repository.
If you are creating/registering a new OWB user when you can choose an existing OWB repository/owner to which the new user will be associated with.
Thanks,
Sutirtha

Cannot Create OWB Repository Owner

Hello All,
On windows XP pro, 32 bit, the following tasks were completed (clean system, 1.5 gig ram and dual core)
- Installed 9.2.0.1 Server
- Installed 9.2.0.6 Patch
- Installed Oracle Worflow + and created workflow user
- Installed OWB_10.2.0.1.win.zip
All seemed to be fine until attempting to create the OWB repository owner using the Repository Assistant
Problem 1)
The Repository Assistant froze after being given the user details for the repository owner.
I found a fix (read Hack) for this that I am including FYI. The issue relates to the view dba_kgllock which was force created against objects that do not exist. To solve this I used TOAD to find the script used to create the view, deleted the view and created an empty table with the same columns.
This is a complete hackbut allowed OWB Repository Assistant. All then continued and was looking good until about 60% complete.
Problem 2)
At approx 60% installation fails with a socket read fail within java.
Thats it, I've stopped dead now, going to continue installation attempts in the morning. If anybody out there can help I would be very greatful.

This appears to be a locking issue and looking at our Support database it is resolved in 10gR1 and 10gR2 versions of the database but remains on 9i although a warning dialog should be shown. Even so the installation should continue and should be successful.
Do you have AQ running? This sometimes causes this error to occur. I think in the 10gR1 documentation this locking issue was documented and it was supposed to be added to the 10gR2 doc (I need to check to this).
To figure the lock from Repo Asst code, use the following:
select distinct
s.sid,
s.serial#,
s.username,
x.kglnaobj as objectname
from
dba_kgllock l,
v$session s,
x$kgllk x
where
l.kgllktype = 'Pin' and
s.saddr = l.kgllkuse and
s.saddr = x.kgllkuse and
x.kglnaobj like '%DBMS_LOCK%';
If this returns rows, display the warning with a suggestion to connect to SQLPlus and issue the following statement (where SID, Serial are what came back from the query)
ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION 'SID, Serial';
e.g.
ALTER SYSTEM KILL SESSION '13, 8'
That might solve the problem.
Hope this helps.

Move OWB Repository from a srvr running 9.2.0.6 to a srvr running 10.1.0.2

I am attempting to move an existing OWB repository from a DB on a server running 9.2.0.6 to a DB on a server running 10.1.0.2. The Target and source servers are running Windows 2000 Advanced Server. All OWB components are 9.2. Until now all DB components are 9.2.0.6. The target server is running HTML DB using 10G. I am reluctant to have two production database levels on the target server, but I will if I have to.
I want to move the instance. What is the best way to accomplish this? There are several ways and I want to follow the course that will:
1) Be a straight forward install
2) Be maintainable
3) Require the least interaction with multiple clients
4) Assure that OWB and Workflow will work with the source/target DBs
I realize that this is a complex question and I have not fully described all of the moving parts, but I hope this provides sufficient information to start working towards a solution. If I left any pertinent information out, I would be happy to provide the information to flesh out this issue.
Thanks in advance, RJZ

Hi,
If you want to avoid running 2 database level you will need to upgrade your OWB repository to 10 (done via OWB export/import) and all OWB clients also (both of which contravene many of your 4 requirements). We went through this process last year (from 9 to 10 for database and OWB) and found a couple of issues during testing requiring changes. It would be best also to redeploy all OWB code to your target 10 database if you take this option.
There is a lot more I could say, if you have any specific questions or want more info, I'd be happy to help.
Regards,
Glen

Urgent: How to create db link in OWB through wizard ? Where is that wizard

Hi,
I am facing problem in finding database link creation wizard in OWB.
Connectors are created. How to use them in creating database link and where is the option to create the database link in OWB?
Thank you in advance.
Regards,
Amit.

Ola Amit,
You can create database links within the ORACLE Modules you define.
Expand Databases/Oracle and right click on one of the modules.
You will see four tabs. The third will allow you to select or define database links
Select one of the already existing links or create a new one by selecting the Create DB Link button...
This is for the OWB version 10.1.x

Moscowic

Apply the 10.2.0.5 patchset to database with 10.2.0.1 OWB Repository

We are planning to apply the 10.2.0.5 patchset to our 10.2.0.4 Data Warehouse database (10.2.0.4 ORACLE_HOME) that contains the 10.2.0.1 OWB Design and Runtime Repository (owbowner and owbrt_sys) schemas. The 10.2.0.1 OWB_HOME is a separte installation from the 10.2.0.4 RDBMS software.
We do need to upgrade the 10.2.0.1 OWB software, but did not want to do that at this time. If anyone has performed this task, would you please let us know if you ran into any issues/problems with the 10.2.0.1 OWB Repository after applying the 10.2.0.5 patchset to the database.
Thank you in advance

Hi,
There should not be any issue with OWB 10.2.0.1 and Oracle 10.2.0.5
We had this combination some time back and it worked without any issue.
Thanks,
Sutirtha
