SSIS - Connecting to Oracle

Hi,
I am new to using SSIS (after using DTS on SQL Server 2000 for many years).
I am trying for the first time to connect to an Oracle 9.2 database and export data from it into SQL Server 2005.
I used the Microsoft OLE DB Oracle Provider to connect to the Oracle instance. The test connection works fine, but when I try and preview a table or copy data from Oracle I get the error....
The component reported the following errors
Cannot retrieve column code page
Has anyone got any ideas how I fix this?
Many thanks
Pete

Here is one of the original threads regarding Code Pages.

It also discusses some potential Number/Decimal conversion issues that
may occur with your version of Oracle.  I haven't seen this issue
with 10g r1/r2.
I also have one other suggestion if you are using BLOB/CLOB columns in
Oracle.  The best way of importing these columns is to use the
DataReader and use the .GetClobVal or .GetBlobVal function in your SQL
statement.

  • SSIS connectivity to Oracle Hyperion Smartview

    Hi
    We are using Oracle Hyperion Smartview plugin in Microsoft excel to connect to Oracle Hyperion provider services.
    How can I use Microsoft SSIS to connect to it?
    Regards
    Kaushik

    Hi Kaushik,
    You cannot unless you write your own connector using this plugin which is difficult.
    See also threads like https://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/sqlserver/en-US/95d8fbee-6f67-4ce9-a0fe-d5e510893f10/ssis-and-hyperion-essbase-

  • Unable to connect to oracle source with SSIS connection manager

    I have oracle drivers installed and I  am trying to connect to oracle database by using SSIS with oracle provider
    Oledb but receiving error as:
    Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. No error message available, result code: E_UNEXPECTED(0x8000FFFF).Any suggestions
    Thanks..

    Solution
    Download the Oracle 11G full client.
    Install the 32 AND the 64 bit version of the
    11G full client (Installation Type: Administrator) and reboot the server afterwards. The 32 bit version is needed for development from BIDS with is 32 bit, the 64 bit version is needed for production with the SQLAgent, which is 64 bit.
    Configure the Oracle clients (both 32 and 64 bits) by editing  the files
    tnsnames.ora and
    sqlnet.ora. Try to do this with an Oracle DBA or, even better, let him/her do this.
    Use the "Oracle provider for OLE DB" from SSIS, don't use the "Microsoft Provider for Oracle" because a 64 bit version of it does not exist.
    Schedule your packages with the SQLAgent.

    When I execute this same exact package as a SQLAgent job 32-bit (type Operating System CmdExec) it runs successfully. When I run the package using the Execute Package Utility, it runs successfully. When I am editting the package in BIDS I can connect to Oracle. For both 64 and 32 bit, I use a dtsconfig file which specifies the Oracle connection string and password.
    Someone mentioned on another forum that maybe there is no Oracle ODBC driver for 64-bit Windows. I would assume that the OracleClient 64-bit would include that.
    I hope I have included all info needed. Please let me know if you may have a resolution to this problem.
    Thanks.

  • Cannot Connect to Oracle using SSIS

    I am working with a client that has the following: a Windows Server Standard 2003 with SQL Server Standard 2005 installed. Oracle 10g is installed on a Linux Red Hat server. All are 64-bit and have the most current service packs installed. We are trying to pull Oracle data to SQL Server using SSIS and/or the SQL Server Import/Export wizard. the 10g client tools are installed on the Windows/SQL Server box. We can connect from there to Oracle using both SQL *Plus and Aqua Data Studio. However, when I try to import data to SQL Server using with the .Net or OLEDB provider, I get the error stating that I have to install the Oracle client tools.
    Can anyone help with this? No one on the Microsoft side seems to have an answer.
    Many thanks!

    Hi lilutchay,
    If the SQL Server Integration Services is Enterprise or Developer edition of SQL Server 2008, we can use
    Microsoft Connector Version 1.2 for Oracle to connect Oracle databases with version Oracle 9.2.0.4 or higher, Oracle 10.x or Oracle 11.x. If the SQL Server Integration Services is Enterprise or Developer edition of SQL Server 2012, we can use
    Microsoft Connector Version 2.0 for Oracle to connect Oracle databases with version Oracle 9.2.0.4 or higher, Oracle 10.x or Oracle 11.x.
    While if we want to connect to other Oracle version databases, we can use
    OLE DB provider for Oracle which has been tested in SSIS labs and is recommended by Microsoft.
    For the detail steps for Microsoft Connector for Oracle, we can refer to the first blog suggested by Deric. For more details about the use of connecting to oracle using Oracle Provider for OLEDB from SSIS, please refer to the blog below:

  • ORACLE SSIS connection - ERROR

    What can I do to try to establish a connection between Oracle and SSIS?, this is so far the most frustrating experience with this tool.
    I have updated all the tns files that I have found in my pc. I have done tnsping to the database and I am getting an answer. But with SSIS anything seems to work.
    I am having the next error:
    Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ORA-06413: Connection not open
    But the provider is not working of line
    I am new with this tool, if you can help or if you need more information ask me, but please be polite with your comments or answers
    I'm using SQL SERVER 2012 and Microsoft Visual Studio 2010

    Hi dj2907,
    Did you use
    Microsoft Connector Version 2.0 for Oracle by Attunity to load data into Oracle or unload data from Oracle in the context of Microsoft SSIS?
    I suggest that you should use this adapter to connect to an Oracle Database in SSIS. For more details about how to use this connector to establish a connection to Oracle, please refer to the following blog:
    http://www.sjoukjezaal.com/blog/2014/05/connecting-to-an-oracle-database-using-ssis-2008/
    Besides, as to the error message, the cause should be 64-bit Microsoft OS's install 32-bit applications into the following location
    "C:\Program Files (x86)\..."
    rather than the typical location of
    "C:\Program Files\..."
    This causes an existing networking bug to occur where the networking layer is unable to parse program locations that contain parenthesis in the path to the executable which is attempting to connect to Oracle.
    To fix this issue, please find the location of the application that is generating the error.  Check the path to this location and see if it contains any parenthesis.  If so, you must relocate the application to a directory without any parenthesis
    in the path.
    The following similar thread is for your reference:

  • Sun Ray error when connecting to Oracle VDI - No Kiosk Sessions Available

    When the Sun Ray DTUs go to connect to the Oracle VDI cluster at times they will throw the error "Error starting Kiosk session: No Kiosk accounts configured." We have tried going through the steps to confirm that the Kiosk sessions are configured on the two secondary hosts but the problem persists. When the Sun Ray DTUs do connect they will work for a while and then when left idle for a period of time will loose their connection and be unable to restart the connection with the error mentioned. The Screen Blanking option on the Sun Ray DTUs is set to "0" to prevent them from going into power-save mode but this makes no difference. The Sun Ray DTUs are all updated with the latest GUI firmware and there are no custom options set in the Sun Ray Session Servers.
    The thing that bothers me the most is I have not seen any error messages in the logs. I will post up the logs as links in a follow-up post.
    Has anyone had any similar issues while connecting with a Sun Ray DTU?
    Currently we are running Oracle VDI 3.2.1 on the cluster.
    Here are the commands we used to reset the Sun Ray Kiosk accounts:
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskstatus -c
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm status
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm delete
    # /opt/SUNWkio/bin/kioskuseradm create -l utku -g utkiosk -i auto -u –c

  • Excel-2007 cannot connect to Oracle ODBC data source, Control Panel can.

    <p>
    I cannot make an ODBC connection from Exce-2007 to Oracle work. I am an expert Excel and VBA user (since 1994) and I have frequently used Excel to access ODBC databases, including Oracle (I have done this with Excel-2003 both with worksheet queries and have written VBA ADO-connection routines). And even though in Excel-2007 a worksheet ODBC query is supposed to be easier to create than in previous version of Excel, my connection fails. Any suggestions and all help are welcome and much appreciated.
    DETAILS
    </p>
    <p>
    1) <strong>What is my system?</strong> I am using Excel-2007 on Windows Vista x64 and Oracle server v.11g on my computer (all this is on my computer, no network issues).
    2)<strong> Why use Excel with Oracle at all?</strong> I use Excel-2007 to access Oracle rather than Access-2007 (or any other application like TOAD, etc.) because I do engineering calculations with the data stored in Oracle. These calculations are easier done in Excel (I suppose that one alternative to this could be to use some sql or Access to get the data from the database, then store it as plain vanilla CSV file, then open this file in Excel, then do the math (the math involves complex optimisation algorithms), then save the results as CSV, then use some sql or Access to put the data back into the database. Howwever this does not strike me as a quick or neat solution. And after all Excel has been designed to access ODBC databases, so why not use it?)
    3) <strong>What do I do in Excel-2007 that won't work?</strong> I create an ODBC link to Oracle that does not work. In Excel-2007 this is straightforward:
    </p>
    <ul>
         <li>define an ODBC connection (Data tab --&gt; From other sources --&gt; From data connection wizard);</li>
         <li>define a query on the worksheet -- that's it, this is all!</li>
    </ul>
    <p>
    I start with creating an ODBC connection:
    a) I choose an ODBC data source type: <strong><em>ODBC DSN</em></strong>
    b) Excel-2007 displays the list of the available ODBC data sources. I see in it <strong><em>my Oracle database name</em></strong> and I select it.
    c) Excel-2007 displays the Data Link Properties:
    - the "Provider" has a list of the OLE DB drivers with preselected "<strong><em>Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers</em></strong>". I keep this default selection.
    - the "Connection" tab has a connection string "<strong><em>DSN=&lt;my database name&gt;</em></strong>" which I keep, it also has fields for the <strong><em>user name</em></strong> and the <strong><em>password</em></strong>, which I fill with the correct credentials.
    - Finally there is a button "Test Connection", which when I click produces the following error message:
    <strong><font color="#ff0000">"Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider.</font></strong><strong><br />
    </strong><strong><font color="#ff0000">Unespecified error"</font></strong><strong>
    </strong>
    4) <strong>Additional food for thought:</strong>
    a) In the above walk-through the only data, which I type, are the user name and password, everything else is selected from lists offered by Excel-2007, hence any possibility of typos being the cause of the problem can safely be discarded.
    b) I can test the ODBC driver in the Control Panel and it shows that it can connect to the Oracle database:
    - in <strong><em>Control Panel --&gt; Admin Tools --&gt; Data Sources (ODBC)</em></strong> on the "User DSN" tab I can see the list of the available ODBC data sources (same list as in Excel-2007, point 3b above) with the name of my database in it;
    - selecting the name of my database from the list of the sources and clicking "Configure" button opens a tab with <strong><em>Data Source Name</em></strong> (same as in Excel-2007), TNS Service Name and User ID. I enter <strong><em>&lt;user name&gt;/&lt;password&gt;</em></strong> and click "Test Connection" button. A message "<strong><em>Connection successful</em></strong>" appears (just for a test I enter <u>incorrect user credentials</u> and "<strong><em>Unable to connect</em></strong>" message appears)
    BOTTOM LINE
    </p>
    <p>
    The procedure for using an ODBC connection from Excel is very simple, in the past I have created and used such connections numerous times with Excel-2003 and earlier on Win-XP and earlier. But now on Excel-2007 and Vista-x64 I cannot make it work.
    Also, testing an ODBC connection driver is really easy and simple to be done in the Control Panel. There testing the same ODBC connection, which fails in Excel-2007, results in success.
    I am frustrated by the simplicity of the problem and yet the persistant error. I have lost now two full days in failed attempts to make the simple procedure work and in searching the internet for answers.
    All help is highly appreciated <img class="emoticon" src="images/emoticons/happy.gif" border="0" alt="" width="16" height="16" />,
    Plamen
    </p>

    Did you find the solution to your problem?
    If not, I think I may know.
    Excel 2007 is a 32-bit application.
    When installing 32-bit applications in a 64-bit environment, the "default" location is:
    C:\Program files (x86)\...
    Excel then launches from this location.
    However, when it connects to Oracle and passes the name of the calling program, Oracle attempts to "interpret" the value of (x86) as if
    the value within the parenthesis are being passed as a reference. Of course, iOracle doesn't find anything, so the result is (),
    and then it cannot return the connection info back to the calling application.
    I corrected it by installing Excel in C:\Program Files\, and once launched from that location, it works the same as on the 32-bit machines.
    However, at my location, they are FORCING Excel to be installed in the(x86) location.
    What I'm trying to discover now is:
    Is it possible to flag Oracle to NOT process the embedded variables?
    Or, is it possible to assign a variable in Oracle such that x86 = "(x86)", so that the end result is viable?
    Have you had any luck with your installation?
    thanks,
    Paul

    Hi
    I am trying to connect to Oracle 11g database on Weblogic 6.1 server.
    First of all i would like to know if this is compatible?
    The environement that i have is this
    1. JDK 1.3
    2. Database 11g is on remote system
    3. Oracle client on my local system ( Connecting to the 11g DB through the client works fine)
    4. Weblogic server 6.1
    5. Currently the application is connected to Oracle 10g DB and working fine(We are attempting to move it to 11g)
    Below are the steps that i followed to create the connection:
    1. Made an entry for the datasource in config.xml under <WLS_DOMAIN>/config folder as below
    <JDBCConnectionPool DriverName="oracle.jdbc.driver.OracleDriver"

    The driver being used by your weblogic is too old and incompatible with the DBMS. Upgrade the driver.

  • How do I connect to Oracle with JDBC using "dedicated processor".

    Because of performance problems we want to try to connect to
    oracle using dedicated processor. We can do this from SQL Plus,
    does anybody know what we need to set up in order to utilize
    this from JDBC?

    Which Java runtime error? (stack trace?)

  • Trying to simply connect to Oracle with VBscript/ASP - and I cannot.

    This is rather embarrassing. I am pretty fluent with ASP and VBscript, and I have written many a web application connecting to Microsoft SQL Server. Now I have a need to connect to an Oracle database, and I'm beating my head against the wall.
    1) Web server is Windows Server 2003 SP1
    2) Using ASP (not ASP.NET) & VBscript
    3) I have installed the Oracle drivers on the server - it is version 10g
    4) The administrator of the Oracle database to which I want to connect has created a username and password for me to use from within my code
    5) Here is the code I am trying to run:
    Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    objConn.Open "Provider=MSDAORA;Data Source=XXXXXXX;User Id=YYYYYYY;Password=ZZZZZZZ;"
    That's it. 2 lines of code just trying to establish a connection. Using the user name and password provided to me by the administrator, and for Data Source I am using the IP address of the Oracle server (like I have done in the past when connecting to SQL Server). I receive the following error message when viewing this in a browser:
    Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle error '80004005'
    ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    Evidently, the Data Source I am using is not correct, but I was provided no other information from the admin. This is the first time any of us have tried to connect to Oracle using ASP/VBScript, so the administrator isn't sure what I need to do ... any help would be so appreciated.

    Hello,
    I got mine to work by setting up an ODBC System DSN and connecting to it. I think this bypasses the Microsoft driver, which might be what's causing the problem.
    Set Db = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
    Db.Open "DSN=TEST;User ID=userid;Password=password;"
    Good luck, I've found it requires a lot of persistence...

    First, this is a forum of volunteers.  There is no "urgent" here.
    "Urgent" means one of two things -
    1) people are dying, or
    2) you have a customer-facing, revenue-producing production system that is down.
    (And to get some perspective on the second case, keep the first in mind.)
    For the first, you call whatever civil emergency service seems appropriate.
    For the second, you open an SR with Oracle - which requires a paid-up support contract. For *them* to consider your problem "urgent", you will need to demonstrate that your problem falls under item #2. I seriously doubt your problem fits that criteria.
    You don't have a support contract?  Now you know the exact dollar figure that your company places on the data.
    That said, you need to understand a few things about your specific problem,
    First, port 1521 is only used by the listener to accept a connection request.  Once it gets that request (and finds that it is for a service (sid) that it knows about, it will fork a server process and tell the requesting client that it can communicate with that server process over some other port .. a randomly chosen port number in the "high" range.  It could be your vpn is blocking that other port, whereas your internal firewall is not.
    But this is just an educated guess since I cannot find "can not connect remote oracle database over VPN" in any error message manual. If you had mentioned the VPN along with an actual oracle error message we could be much more precise in our diagnoses and recommendations.
    ---- edit 22 Sep
    It occurred to me that I just assumed you were using the same client machine in both cases ... a laptop that you use both at work (local network) and home (vpn).  If that assumption is false, there are probably problems with your tns setup on the home (vpn) machine.
    But again, it would be much easier to help if you gave us an actual error message.
