Translate this Sql Server Query into Oracle 9i ?

UPDATE E
SET lvl =M.LVL+1
FROM Employees AS E JOIN inserted AS I
ON I.empid = E.empid
LEFT OUTER JOIN Employees AS M
ON E.mgrid = M.empid

There is no FROM clause in an ANSI SQL update statement. Folk here don't necessarily know SQL Server, but if you re-write your update statement as an ANSI one and it doesn't work we'll likely be able to help. See page 391 of this doc --
ANSI SQL 92

Hi,
You could use the 'Translation Scratch Editor' in SQL*Developer to translate SQL*Server statements to Oracle.
SQL*Developer is free and can be downloaded from here -
http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/developer-tools/sql-developer/overview/index.html
Once installed start it up, then go to 'Tools' - 'Migration' - 'Translation Scratch Editor'
I did run the statement you have posted here through it but it gave errors so looks like there may be a problem with the syntx in any case.
Does this query run as it is in SQL*Server ?
Regards,
Mike

Problems with loading source model using omw from sql server 7 into oracle 9i

I am migrating data from sql servr 7 into oracle 9i. when doing capture phase i get the following error.
==>failed to load source model.[microsoft][odbc sql server][sql server]select permission
denied on column 'password' of object 'syslogins', database master, owner dbo.
Why is this so...is it bcz of something with my odbc link...
also is there any way to load only tables and not system tables when doing capture phase.
any help asap will be much appreciated.
thanks

Hi,
You must ensure that you have the correct password to login to SQL Server.
The Workbench requires some of the tables in the Master database.

Converting SQL Server Query to Oracle

Hello TechFriends,
Can any one of u please tell me equivalent of following SQL Server Query?
The same query runs in Oracle but givesa same reocrds in different order!! I want such an equivalent oracle query that gives records in same order as Sql Server does.
select
ProfValue_ProfScaleFK ProfScale,
ProfValue_Value ProfValue,
isnull(ProfValueDesc.name, ProfValue_name) ProfName
from
ProfValueDesc inner join TBL_LMS_Lang
on lang_fk = lang_pk and langid = 'en'
right outer join ProfValue
on ProfValue_ProfScaleFK = ProfScale_fk and ProfValue_Value = ProfValue_FK ;
Regards & TIA.
Anand.

If you want a specific ordering why don't you add an ORDER BY clause?

Variable database name in SQL Server query using Oracle database link

Hi All,
I have an ApEx 4.1 app running on 11g x64 (11.2.0.1) on Windows Server 2008 x64, and I have some data integration points with a SQL Server (2005 and 2008) that I need to establish. I have configured the database link with dg4odbc and it works beautifully... I can execute queries against the SQL Server database without any problems using the database link.
However, there is a scenario where the SQL Server database name is dynamic, and I need to generate it on the fly in a PL/SQL block, and then use that in a dynamic SQL query (all of this in ApEx). This is where I run into problems... when I am querying the default database based on the ODBC connection and I don't have to specify the database name, there is no issue. But when I need to access one of several other non-default databases, I keep receiving the "invalid table" error.
This runs fine:* (note that "fv" is the name of my database link)
v_query1 := 'select "ReleaseDate" from dbo.Schedules@fv where dbo.Schedules."SchedID" = :schedule';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_query1 into rel_date using schedule;
I then take that rel_date variable, convert to a varchar2 (rel_date_char), and then use it as the database name in the next query...
This returns an error_ (Error ORA-00903: invalid table name)
v_query2 := 'select "PARTNO" from :rel_date_char.dbo.ProdDetails@fv where "SchedID" = :schedule and "UnitID" = :unit
and "MasterKey" = :master and "ParentKey" = :parent';
EXECUTE IMMEDIATE v_query2 into part_number using schedule, unit, master, parent;
I have also tried using all of the following to no avail:
'select "PARTNO" from ' || :rel_date_char || '.dbo.ProdDetails@fv where "SchedID"...
'select "PARTNO" from ' || rel_date_char || '.dbo.ProdDetails@fv where "SchedID"...
'select "PARTNO" from ' || @rel_date_char || '.dbo.ProdDetails@fv where "SchedID"...
'select "PARTNO" from @rel_date_char.dbo.ProdDetails@fv where "SchedID"...
Is there a way to do this in PL/SQL?
Thanks for any help!

Converting MS SQL Server Query to Oracle Query

Hi There,
I've a strange problem. My project uses both MS SQL Server and Oracle server at run time. I've lot of queries which are written in MS SQL Style. Now, iam planning to write a helper class whic converts MS SQL Query to Oracle Query. Please Help me if any one has that kind of Helper with you.
Thanks And Regards,
Sasi Kanth

That is why persistence applications like Hibernate or
CMP get used for apps that will use more than one DB,
but it takes upfront planning.
If you have a set of automated unit tests that work
with SQL Server, they will be a big help in getting
your Oracle code up and running.Indeed - JUnit and Ant would be a big help here.
It sounds like you have SQL in your JSPs, that will
work against you as well if so. If you are using a
DAO pattern, this will be much easier, as you can
re-implement each DAO for Oracle.If you'd layered this app properly, you might just implement an OracleDAOFactory and be done with it. Interfaces and a DAO layer would go a long way.
This is why layering is such a good idea. It isolates changes in a smaller subset of classes.
But your problem sounds pretty big. It'd be daunting even if it were well designed.

Convert Sql server database into oracle

hi friends
i have a very smal database of sql server containing 8 tables
i want to convert my databse into oracle plz tell me in detail coz i dont know any thing about it.
plz help me
take care
bye

If the amount of data is small, you might look into Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS), which comes with SQL Server. This provides an easy to use GUI for mapping data between two sources.
A few warnings:
- If you let DTS create your Oracle tables, beware that that table / column names may be created as case-sensitive and data types may not be what you expect
- If you are transferring a lot of data (e.g. millions of rows), performance will be terrible.

How to import sql server database into oracle

Hi,
i have a backup of database(complete) from sql server, Is there any way to import that backup database into oracle environment.
Please let me know the process
Thanks
Naren$

No. You cannot simply import binary data files from a 3rd party database directly into Oracle.
You can use bcp on SQL-Server to unload the data to CSV and then use Oracle's SQL*Loader to load it.
You can run a SQL-Server database instance and an Oracle database instance, and use a heterogeneous database link from Oracle (working via ODBC) to connect to SQL-Server - and use SQL statements to pull object definitions and data from SQL-Server into Oracle.

Problem in Loading Data from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle 10g

Hi All,
I am a university student and using ODI for my final project on real-time data warehousing. I am trying to load data from MS SQL Server 2000 into Oracle 10g target table. Everything goes fine until I execute the interface for the initial load. When I choose the CKM Oracle(Create unique index on the I$ table) km, the following step fails:
21 - Integration - Prj_Dim_RegionInterface - Create Unique Index on flow table
Where Prj_Dim_Region is the name of my target table in Oracle.
The error message is:
955 : 42000 : java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00955: name is already used by an existing object

I am using a surrogate key column in my target table alongwith the natural key. The natural key is populated by the primary key of my source table, but for the surrogate key, I have created a sequence in my oracle schema where the target table exists and have used the following code for mapping:
<%=snpRef.getObjectName( "L" , "SQ_PRJ_DIM_REGION" , "D" )%>.nextval
I have chosen to execute this code on target.
Among my attempts to solve this problem was to set Create Index option of the CKM Oracle(Create Index for the I$ Table) to No so that it wont create any index on the flow table. I also tried to use the simple CKM Oracle km . Both solutions allowed the interface to execute successfully without any errors, but the data was not loaded into the target table.
When I right-click on the Prj_Dim_Region data store and choose Data, it shows empty. Pressing the SQL button in this data store shows a dialog box " New Query" where I see this query:
select * from NOVELTYFURNITUREDW.PRJ_DIM_REGION
But when i press OK to run it, I get this error message:

Hi Cezar,
Can u plz help me with this scenario?
I have one Oracle data model with 19 source tables and one SQL Server data model with 10 target tables. I have created 10 interfaces which use JournalizedDataOnly on one of the tables in the interface; e.g in interface for DimCustomer target table, I have 2 tables, namely Customer and Address, but the journalizing filter appear only on Customer table and this option is disabled for Address automatically.
Now I want to create a package using OdiWaitForLog event detection. Is it possible to put all these 10 interfaces in just one package to populate the target tables? It works fine when I have only one interface and I use the name of one table in the interface for Table Name parameter of OdiWaitForLogData event, but when I try a comma seperated list of table names[Customer, Address] this error happens
java.sql.SQLException: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
and if I use this method <%=odiRef.getObjectName("L","model_code","logical_schema","D")%>, I get this error
"-CDC_SET_NAME=Exception getObjectName("L", "model_code", "logical_schema", "D") : SnpLSchema.getLSchemaByName : SnpLschema does not exist" "
Please let me know how to make it work?
Do I need to create separate data models each including only those tables which appear in their corresponding interface and package? Or do I need to create multiple packages each with only one journalized interface to populate only one target table?
Thank you for your time in advance.
Regards,
Neel

SQL Server Procedures to Oracle Functions

Is there an option in the Migration Assistant 1.2.0 that will convert the SQL Server procedures into Oracle Functions (rather than procedures)?
By default the T/SQL procedures return a integer status code. Our middle-tier requires calls to procedures to return a status code (integer), and I'd like the migration to modify the "procedure" to a "Function returning Integer" rather than Procedure.

Thomas,
This is not an option currently. We will look into this for a future release. You could manually make the changes post conversion, prior to generation. As well as adding appropriate RETURN statements, you may want to add additional exception handling so the appropriate error is passed back.

Query Perofmance is much more fast in SQL server 2000 than Oracle 9i

I have converted a database from SQL Server 2000 to Oracle (9.0.2).
In a stored procedure a query based on 4 tables working well in SQL Server which takes just 1 or 2 minutes to give result But in Oracle it takes 3 to 4 Hours to return the results.Although Database hit ratio is 99 plus %. In Oracle when i created indexes on 2 columns of 2 tables it just take 5 to 10 sec. But I want to get the result in less time without indexes. Because in
SQL Server it Works well without indexes.
Please reply me with some solutions or reasons

Most sites have a job that runs every night to keep the statistics up to date.Really? I would be very surprised if that was the case. Firstly, many sites don't want to take the hit of running stats for a whole system each night. Secondly, I would hope that many DBAs know this statement...
Always keep up to date statistics if you want your database to be efficent. ...is wrong.
The best that can happen from refreshing the statistics every night is that it makes no difference to your application. If your application is running nicely - that is, no users are yelling at you - then your current statistics are good enough. Refreshing statistics introduces instability into the system and might lead to queries performing worse than before.
Gathering stats is not the sort of thing you want to do with a scattergun. Analyze your database once, after you've reached what is a representative data volume and then leave it alone. Only refresh statistics if you have a specific issue (user complaint) and you think stale statistics might be the cause.
Cheers, APC
