SQL Server 2005 to Oracle via OLE DB

I've got a project where I need to access several tables in an Oracle (9i) database from SQL Server 2005. I installed the Oracle OLE DB provider and the Oracle 9i client. I can access the tables via the Oracle client without issue. I tried creating a "Linked Server" in SQL 2005 Mgmt Studio. Sometimes I can get it to test the connection successfully, but I can never get it to read anything from the database.
Depending on what configuration I use, (MS OLEDB Provider, or the Oracle OLEDB Provider - varying the in process flag and other values) the errors range from not being able to instantiate the OLEDB provider to the server just returning an result that the table I'm trying to access doesn't exist.
I keep reading in the forums about Transparent Gateways.... Do I have to have a gateway running for this? Shouldn't I be able to access the Oracle tables via OLEDB?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I finally got everything working by using the ORacle 10x OLEDB client to create a linked server. You also have to set the OLEDB "allow in process" flag to get it going.
With the 10x client and the in process flag, everything worked exactly as expected.

  • Migration From SQL Server 2005 to Oracle DB through Oracle SQ Dev Problem

    Hi all,
    we are trying to do a full Migration from MS SQL Server 2005 to Oracle DB 9.2 i
    we are using Oracle SQL Developer V 1.5.3,
    the capturing of the DB and the conversion to the oracle model completed succefully
    however when we try to generate the scripts from the converted model
    the script generation hangs on a sequence and no further progress is made (the script generation pop up keeps still on a certain sequence displaying its name, and thats it )
    no error messages are displayed,
    how can we know the reason for this? or atleast find a log for whats happening...
    any suggestions?
    Thank you

    Hi,
    migrating a sequence shouldn't make a problem. I did a quick test. I created this table in SQL Server:
    create table test_seq (col1 int identity(1,1),col2 char(1))
    Then I captured the table, converted the table and generated the script. There was no problem.
    CREATE SEQUENCE succeeded.
    CREATE TABLE succeeded.
    Connected
    TRIGGER test_seq_col1_TRG Compiled.
    As you see, applying the script was also successful.
    I am using Oracle RDBMS 11g, I don't know whether this makes a difference. Do you have any 11g instance available to test it?
    Can you show me one of the sequences that are causing the hang? Is the CREATE SEQUENCE statement already in the generated script, or not? Your table is for sure more complex than my simple example.

  • Migration from of database and app from SQL server 2005 to Oracle 10g

    Hello Every body,
    Lately, I have been requested to migrate one inhouse developed hub application from SQL server 2005 to Oracle 10g. The objective is to move application and also the database to Oracel 10g.
    Here is the current platform:
    OS Win 2008 64 bit
    JDK 1.4.2
    JBoss 3.2.5
    EJB 2.1
    My question is what kind of issues you guys see in above upgrade. As far I know, Schema and Database migration can be done by Oracle workbench. Oracle 10g supports JDK 1.4. Oracle 10g also supports EJB 2.1.
    Anything, I need to take into consideration or any risks or problems. I would like to list down all the risks, and accordingly, I am thinking of start the upgrade.
    Thanks in advance.

    In general the Java/J2EE application needs work in the following categories:
    1. Connection Settings: Use Oracle JDBC drivers, create new data sources, connection pools and what not. Disable AUTOCOMMIT for Oracle JDBC Connections.
    2. For EJBs, you should regenerate the entity beans because some object names/column names might have changed in oracle.
    3. Any custom SQL that is in use in the EJBs will have to be ported to Oracle just as you would do in stored procedures and other applications.
    4. For Java front-ends, if you are using callouts to stored procedures and expecting result sets then they will require some changes. You need to modify the stored procedure call signature to include the REF CURSOR variables and process them.
    5. Changes to any SQL Server specific database functions manipulating character/date data will be required.
    6. CLOB/BLOB/XML apis are different across databases so if you are using those then focus on them as well.
    7. Retreiving Auto/generated keys from database also may need changes from what I have seen.
    Hope this helps..

  • Migration from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 10g

    Dear buddies,
    I need to migrate my tables with data from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 10g. How can I do it in the best possible way?
    Please guide me.
    Nith

    Nith,
    I doubt if there is one best practice that can cover all cases of migrating data from sql server to Oracle. l generally find various factors case-by-case that make me chose one approach over the other. Without considering the business case and environment specific factors, some of the things I would like to know would be: The data types of the tables columns, table sizes, number of tables and if this is a one time process or a recurring process.
    One of the easiest (some times rather pesky) process would be:
    -Dump source data (Sql Server data) into flat files, csv or any preferred format
    -Setup a set of staging set of tables in the destination DB (Oracle in your case). You can setup the stage tables to enforce data-types, value sets and even some level of integrity constraints or any data logic or what ever you would like to filter out. Load the flat file data into a set of Oracle stage tables (Sql*Loader would be a good candidate)
    -You can always move data from these stage tables to you application tables
    You can script this whole process to run as batch or on demand or how ever you would like.
    I am sure you can google and find a bunch of proprietary as well as open source tools to do the same with little to a lot of work.
    good luck!

  • DB Migration from MS SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 9i

    Hi Guys
    I want to migrate the data from Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 9i.
    Could ou please suggest me the how to proceed.
    I can simply extract the das in CSV format as their are Foreign key , Primary key concept is there. So what will be the best way to proceed ....
    regards
    Macky

    Macky,
    In the coming months we will add support for SQL Server 2005 to the Oracle Migration Workbench. See our statement of direction on OTN for more details.
    If you have extracted the data into a csv file format, you could construct a SQL Loader control file to load this data, assuming you have already created the table on the Oracle side.

    Hi Naveen,
    We would like to migrate our Siebel database from Sql Server 2005 to Oracle 11g RAC. Can you suggest the best way to do that ?You will need much more which suggestions.
    You will need a Siebel professional which has done this type of migration. Migrating the Database is not a task so hard, after migrating your environment should be functional and healthy it is usually the task problematic.
    The hardware can be changed if needed. Can you please suggest the best approach ?We can recommend the minimum recommended, but this documentation already does, you need to do a analysis on your environment and ask a vendor Siebel tell the which is recommended for you and how to find the best "number" for you, in your case is very hard because everything changes.

    dbf it's not sql server.
    >
    SQL Server databases have three types of files:
    Primary data files
    The primary data file is the starting point of the database and points to the other files in the database. Every database has one primary data file. The recommended file name extension for primary data files is .mdf.
    Secondary data files
    Secondary data files make up all the data files, other than the primary data file. Some databases may not have any secondary data files, while others have several secondary data files. The recommended file name extension for secondary data files is .ndf.
    Log files
    Log files hold all the log information that is used to recover the database. There must be at least one log file for each database, although there can be more than one. The recommended file name extension for log files is .ldf.

  • Migrating From Sql Server 2005 to Oracle (Uniqueidentifier Issue)

    If i want to migrate from SQL SERVER 2005 to Oracle, How Oracle will deal with my primary key columns in almost all tables having datatype of UNIQUEIDENTIFIER ???
    is there any concept of uniqueidentifier in Oracle same as in SQL SERVER ????
    Regards

    When you migrate your SP's from SQL Server to Oracle the parser basically does 'as good a job as it can' to migrate them.
    Luckily, using SQL Developer you are able to look at the source SP and converted SP in windows next to each other and see what oracle has done to them.
    You can also paste your SQL Server code into a window and ask SQL Developer to translate it to oracle for you. Use the 'Translation Scratch Editor' on the migration menu if this is something that interests you. I was told that the parser used by the Translation Scratch Editor is different to the parser used when migrating the whole database.

  • Issue with migration DB from SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 11.2 using SQL Developer Migration workbench

    Hi,
    We face an issue while migrating an SQL Server 2005 DB to Oracle 11.2.  It fails during the process.  I hope someone on the forum has seen this before and can give us some advice.
    I use the latest version of SQL Developer with JRE included (3.2.20.09).  The JDBC driver to connect to SQL Server 2005 is 1.2.0
    Here are the steps we take in the Migration Workbench wizard:
    I made an online extract of the SQL Server database.
    Using the workbench in SQL Developer I created a migration repository in schema PDM_MIGRATION.
    Next I start the migration, it captures the tables fine, but immediately after the start of the conversion I get a failed message without further explanations.
    This is the content of the error xml:

    Hi Wolfgang,
    Thanks for your reply.
    This is how the type MIGR_FILTER looks like:
    create or replace
    TYPE MIGR_FILTER IS OBJECT (
      FILTER_TYPE INTEGER, -- Filter Types are 0-> ALL, 1->NAMELIST, 2->WHERE CLAUSE, 3->OBJECTID LIST
      OBJTYPE VARCHAR2(40),
      OBJECTIDS OBJECTIDLIST,
      NAMES NAMELIST,
      WHERECLAUSE VARCHAR2(1000));
    I think the repository user has the correct privileges.  This is the overview of privileges it has:

    Manual,
    Do you see the same problem if you try the migration in stages ?
    Could you -
    - click on the SQL*Server database to be migrated and choose 'Capture Microsoft SQL*Server'
    - does that complete successfully ?
    - if right click on the captured model and choose 'Show log messages' is anything displayed ?
    - if the capture is okay, then right click and choose 'Convert to Oracle Model'
    - does this create a converted model ? If you right click and choose 'Show log messages' is anything displayed ?
    if you still have problems could you try deleting the migration repository then creating a new one ?

  • ODBC connect to SQL Server 2005 from Oracle 10.2.0.3 32bit Linux

    I’m unable to establish a connection from Oracle 10.2.0.3 32bit Linux to SQL Server 2005.
    The ODBC driver is the 32bit DataDirect 5.3 drivers and when I do a status on the listener it does have a handler for SQLDB
    Any help is appreciated.
    Received the following error:
    SQL> select count(*) from columns@SQLDB;
    select count(*) from columns@SQLDB
    ERROR at line 1:

    The error message is indicating problems loading the driver manager.
    A common issue on Linux (especially on Suse Linux) is related to library caching. First of all make sure you add the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to your listener.ora file to guarantee the correct libraries will be loaded. Your SID section will then look like:
    (SID_DESC=
    (SID_NAME=SQLDB)
    (ORACLE_HOME=/app/oracle10g/product/10.2)
    (ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/app/oracle10g/product/10.2/lib:/app/DataDirect/lib)
    (PROGRAM=hsodbc)
    After changing the listener.ora file stop and start the listener.
    Details about the set up can be found in Metalink note:
    Note.264567.1 P216. How To Setup Generic Connectivity - HSODBC - on Linux
    If this does not help enable strace and check out from which location libodbc.so is being loaded.
    Please be also aware HSODBC has been desupported 15th of March. As you start a new project you should proceed with the follow up product DG4ODBC.

  • CONNECT SQL SERVER 2005 WITH Oracle 10.2.0.3

    Hi,
    I used URL http://www.databasejournal.com/features/oracle/article.php/10893_3442661_2 but its not working.
    I was reading note# 561033.1 adn planning to try.
    If any one done ,please let me know.

    user587327 wrote:

    1) What version of Oracle rdbms you are working with (ok, I see 10.2.0.3 in subject .. good)
    2) what OS it is running on (obviously SQL Server is on Windoze, but that doesn't mean that's where Oracle is) : Linux RHEL 4.4 64 bit
    3) what you are trying to do (get an Oracle database to retrieve data from SQL Server? vice versa? something else?):
    Connect to Oracle database and retrieve data from SQL SERVER 2005.So, you want the Oracle DB to act as a client to the SQL Server db?

    ----I've never used HSO to SQL Server, so I'm getting out of my area here. However ...
    I'm puzzled by the error msg referencing "Net8". Looks like an Oracle 8i construct but you said your db is 10.2. And since the box is Linux I wouldn't expect to find an old 8i installation lurking on it.
    I searched MetaLink (should be everyone's first resource when trying to understand an error message) for "ora-28545" and got 13 hits.

  • SQL Server 2005 to Oracle 10.2.0.4 Migration

    Hi,
    While converting from SQL Server 2005 DB to Oracle 10.2.0.4 , The data migration completed.
    The source is having Chinese and Japanese characters also,
    Oracle Char Set set to Unicode(AL32UTF8)
    After the migration all the chinese and Japanese chars are showing up as "?" In oracle DB. How to overcome this?
    I have used Oracle Sql developer for the migration.
    modified bcp command as follows:
    bcp "abc.dbo.FONT" out "[abc].[dbo].[FONT].dat" -q -c -CRAW -t "<EOFD>" -r "<EORD>" -T -S<Servername> - Data got loded, but the charset is problem
    bcp "abc.dbo.FONT" out "[abc].[dbo].[FONT].dat" -q -c -C850 -t "<EOFD>" -r "<EORD>" -T -S<Servername> - Data got loded, but the charset is problem
    With below options data is not getting loaded itself.
    bcp "abc.dbo.FONT" out "[abc].[dbo].[FONT].dat" -q -w -CRAW -t "<EOFD>" -r "<EORD>" -T -S<Servername>
    bcp "abc.dbo.FONT" out "[abc].[dbo].[FONT].dat" -q -n -CRAW -t "<EOFD>" -r "<EORD>" -T -S<Servername>
    bcp "abc.dbo.FONT" out "[abc].[dbo].[FONT].dat" -q -N -CRAW -t "<EOFD>" -r "<EORD>" -T -S<Servername>
    Any help on this pls??

    Hello,
    please have a look at the following forum thread:
    Arabic data migration problem
    Just replace "arabic" by "chinese" or "japanese" in your mind if you read that thread, and let me know whether it is helpful for you.
    Best regards

  • Copy table from Ms SQL Server 2005 to Oracle with SSIS package

    Hi all
    I am witting an SSIS package to copy 2 tables from Ms SQL Server 2005 to an Oracle 10g database.
    Problem: I can only see the Microsoft OLDB Provider for Oracle and it is too slow. How can I use the Oracle ODBC in aMs SQL Server 2005 or building a .net SSIS package.
    thanks

    Yes I am able to see the driver on the Data Source (ODBC), I also created a connection to the Oracle database. The problem in Ms SQL Server 2005 is that the ODBC connection I created is not listed. None of the lo local connections are listed, only Microsoft OLEDB connections
