Unable to connect to database after migration from oracle 8 to 9i

Hi,
Our applications database was migrated from oracle 8 to oracle9i, The oracle_home path was updated to the newer version.
While accessing the databese using the new setup we are facing SQLLIB mismatch problem
the description of error is as follows
=======================================================
SQL-02107 Program too old for runtime library; please re-precompile it
Cause: Your program was precompiled by an older version of the Oracle Precompilers, which is incompatible with this release of SQLLIB.
Action: Precompile the program with a newer version of the Oracle Precompilers
=========================================================
Please help in this regard

Hi Akhil,
Looks like some Tuxedo services are using Pro*C code. Therefore, you would need to recompile your Pro*C code using the newer compiler and then rebuild the Tuxedo servers.

Unable to connect to environment after migrating Security from BPC 7.5 to BPC 10.1

Hi Experts,
We are working on BPC 7.5 to BPC 10.1 NW migration and after migrating the environment, we are unable to connect to environment.
While trying to access, we are getting the following error:
After taking a backup of the necessary environment in BPC 7.5 NW we are carrying out the 2 steps in the BPC 10.1 NW box:
Step 1 : Tcode UJBR - Restore the environment in BPC 10.1
Results: This is working fine.
Step 2: Program UJT_MIGRATE_75_TO_101 - Running the migration utility in BPC 10.1 to make the objects compatible with BPC.
2.1 Execute without Security Mapping
Results:
This is working fine. We are able to connect to the Environment and access the dimensions and models.
2.2 Execute with only Security Mapping
Results:
After this step, we are not able to access the environments and are getting the Logon error.
cannot get model "" in environment "xxxxxx" from Admin module
The logon attempt failed; contact your administrator.
If you have any options to resolve this error, it would be great.
Else, we will have to re-build the entire security design manually.
Regards,
Sushant Pradhan

Hi Andy,
Thanks for your response. Yes, my id has SAP_ALL authorization.
Still unable to access the environment after migrating security.
To make things less complicated, we went back to BPC 7.5 NW - deleted all unwanted user ids, we kept only 3 user ids. Then, we took backup of application set and restored it in BPC 10.1.
We created a mapping file of those 3 user ids in BPC 10.1 as NW user ids and executed the Migration utility. Again we have same error.
Regards,
Sushant Pradhan.

Unable to Connect to Database (after server has been re-started)

Hi, I use Essbase Admin Services 7.1.3 and the server was not responding, therefore our IT guys re-started it. Since then I am unable to connect to one of the applications. I have tried to start/Stop the application but it just says "Application did not start". There are 6 databases in this application altogether (3 data and 2 Currency). The application has been there for about 3 years (it holds historic sales data) and there has never been any problems with it. When I tried to Start the application, in the message panel at the bottom it says "Error: 1013015 Unable to Connect to Database (2003)". It's as if there is a problem with this 2003 database but the 2002 and 2004 database are OK. Has anyone ever had this problem and knows how to rectify it?? Thanks in advance. Sarah

It may be that the server restart corrupted the database. Go into database properties and uncheck the box start database with application and then try to restart the application. You can try database validation, or simply reload the database from backup. But you can get the application up and the rest of the databases up by decoupling the database restart from the application start. There will be a .xcp log file in your application directory (and possibly your database directory.) These might help Hyperion Support in identifying the cause of the problem. But the quickest solution would be to reload the database from backup. The serer and application logs can also provide help in identifying the problem. One of the keys is to determine why the server is not responding before restarting the server. It may be that a single application is the source of problem. Typical causes are unscheduled free space restructures, application loads of large databases, and an occasional rogue process. Rather than rebooting the entire box, or even restarting the Essbase server, the safest approach is to only kill the job that is soaking up the cpu cycles, causing the server to be unresponsive. This requires identifying the offending process (esssvr.exe) and killingit. Often that restores the rest of the system to operations, giving you time to focus onthe offending application. You learn thses things when you are pushing the server to its limits (or beyond). If it happens often, you need to do a serious performance audit of teh server and determine whether you need more power and/or memory. And in any case, you are less likely to encounter this sort of problem in the future if you try to limit applications to a single database. This will allow a better utilization of system resources. And also, it's a good idea to shut down applications that you are not going to be using for a while. Every loaded app takes system resources whether or not it is doing anything. So review your list of apps that start on startup and consider unloading apps after completing batch processing. Sorry about the long lecture, but I speak from somewhat painful experience. I hope that this will help you.

Performance issue with view selection after migration from oracle to MaxDb

Hello,
After the migration from oracle to MaxDb we have serious performance issues with a lot of our tableview selections.
Does anybody know about this problem and how to solve it ??
Best regards !!!
Gert-Jan

Hello Gert-Jan,
most probably you need additional indexes to get better performance.
Using the command monitor you can identify the long running SQL statements and check the optimizer access strategy. Then you can decide which indexes might help.
If this is about an SAP system, you can find additional information about performance analysis in SAP notes 725489 and 819641.
SAP Hosting provides the so-called service 'MaxDB Migration Support' to help you in such cases. The service description can be found here:

Unable to connect to database when running from JDeveloper

Hi all,
When I open a report in Reports Builder , and enter the database connection parameters, everything works fine. When I run my web application from JDeveloper (9.0.5.1), and I tried to run a report, I get this error:

I have ran tnsping, and it works fine. My tnsnames.ora file looks like this :

DPM 2012 R2 unable to connect to Database after failed Update Rollup 4 Installation

We have a DPM 2012 R2 Server with SQL Server 2012 installed locally.
We tried to install Rollup 4 for DPM 2012 R2 (KB3009516) using Windows Update
and it failed with error code 0x80070643. Now when we open the DPM Console
it is totally empty (no Protection Groups, Servers, Disks, just like a fresh install).
In the eventlog we get a lot of Errors and warnings:
Event 941 (MSDPM)
Unable to connect to the DPM database. Make sure that SQL Server is running and that it is configured correctly.
Cannot open database "DPMDB" requested by the login. The login failed.
Event 4209 (MSDPM)
The description for Event ID 4209 from source MSDPM cannot be found. Either the component that raises this event is not installed on your local computer or the installation is corrupted. You can install or repair the component on the local computer.
If the event originated on another computer, the display information had to be saved with the event.
The following information was included with the event:
DPM Writer encountered an internal error. Please restart the DPM Writer service, and then try the backup operation again. For additional troubleshooting information, review the application event log and the DPM Troubleshooting Guide.
Event 107 (Report Server Windows Service (MSSQLSERVER)
Report Server Windows Service (MSSQLSERVER) cannot connect to the report server database.
Event 274 (SQLISService110)
Microsoft SSIS Service:
Registry setting specifying configuration file does not exist.
Attempting to load default config file.
Then there are some Errors/warnings from SQLSERVERAGENT about failed scheduled Jobs.
I think the failed Installation changed some database Settings, so that now the DPM Console
cant access the database anymore.
I would be happy if someone can help me getting this Server working again!

Our biggest problem is, that the DPM is not working any more. So there is no chance to backup the SQL Server via DPM.
I think the main problem is that DPM have no access to the database. Every time I start the DPM Application, I get an error "verify that the DPM service is running on this computer". In the eventlog are many errors that the msdpm service was unable
to connect to DPM Database. Another "information" is that the user 'nt authority\system' failed to open the database of dpm.
We've tried to reinstall the DPM but its still the same problem. I suppose that is a corrupt database.
Tomorrow I try to restore the database and hope it will be the solution of our problem.

Unable to connect to database after htmldb install

Let me clarify:
I am using 10g (10.2.0.1.0)
I just installed Application Server 10.1.3.0.0
I two database instances one being the original I created on initial install of 10g.
One additional database I wanted to use for the HTMLDB application.
I successfully installed and can connect to the application server on http://myserver:7777/em
And I can connect to the OEM for the database on http://myserver:5500/em.
When I tried to login via command prompt to install the HTMLDB tools I get the following error.
ERROR:
ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
I have checked my tnsnames.ora, listen.or and sqlnet files. They all appear to be correct.
I can even login through the net manager.

You don't tell us the OS (what always is useful), but if it is Windows, a new installation changes the default ORACLE_HOME. Now Oracle searches in <NEW_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin (in your case the new home is HTMLDB's home) for its net configuration files. You could copy the configuration files from the old location or set TNS_ADMIN to <OLD_ORACLE_HOME>\network\admin.

Upgrade SBO-COMMOM SQL - unable to connect to database

Dear Experts,
I'm trying to upgarde from SAP 2007 A PL-42 to PL-49.
I have currently got SQL2000 (for legend system) running under the instance name SERVER and i have installed SQL2005 (SAP uses this) with the instance name SERVER\SQL2005, both running on the same machine called SERVER.
When i try to upgrade the SBO-COMMON database, it installs the DI and reaches a point where it asks for:-
Database Server:-              (I input SERVER\SQL2005)
Database Name:-              (SBO-COMMON)
User Name:-                     (sa)
Password:-                      (password)
When i click the NEXT button, i get the error "unable to connect to database; verify that database TCP/IP port serice is started."
I have verified that the TCP/IP ie enabled,and running on port 1433.
Addidtional Information:
During installation, it tries to access c:\windows\system32\sqljdbc_auth.dll file, when i click the NEXT button, just before i get the TCP/IP error.
Would highly appreciate the help.

Can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013

can only access emails through OWA after migration from exchange 2007 to 2013, in other words unable to access mails through outlook or from other Applications services.
needed RCA ... plz help..

Hi,
From your description, you can send and receive messages only when you use OWA after migration from Exchange 2007 to Exchange 2013. If I have misunderstood your concern, please let me know.
In your case, I recommend you create a new test mailbox in your Exchange 2013 and check if you can send and receive messages on Outlook. If yes, it is recommended to create a new profile to solve this issue.
Hope this can be helpful to you.

Unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE 11G(on 64 bit Linux box)

We are unable to connect to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE 11G which is on 64 bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Infrastructure: OBIEE 11.1.1.5 64bit, on 64 bit Red Hat Linux Enterprise Linux 5.6 , MS SQL Server 2008 on 64 bit Microsoft Windows Server
Issue Description: Unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE11G RPD
Details: We are unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE which is on a 64 bit Linux box. We created the ODBC connection on Linux box to the SQL server. Whenever we try to import metadata it throws an error that says ‘Connection Failed’.
Here are the steps we followed to setup the ODBC connection on Linux box.
1) We updated the user.sh file with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 values that point to $ORACLE_HOME/bifoundation/odbc/lib
This is where we found the driver for SQL server SEmsss23.so.
2) We updated the odbc.ini file with the entry for SQL server with the connection details
SI_SQL_Server_DEV = SQL Server
[SI_SQL_Server_DEV]
Driver=/u001_OAS/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_BI1/bifoundation/odbc/lib/SEmsss23.so

3) We updated the IDENTIFIER_QUOTE_CHAR with single quotes instead of double quotes in the DB features of the RPD
4) We updated the bash_profile file to point the ODBCINI variable to the path where the OBIEE odbc.ini file is present.
Export ODBCINI=/u001_OAS/Oracle/Middleware/instances/instance1/bifoundation/OracleBIApplication/coreapplication/setup/odbc.ini
The error in nqsserver.log file says “[nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: IM002 code: 0 message: [DataDirect][ODBC lib] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.”

Hi,
Make sure SQL Configuration Manager make sure the TCP/IP enabled. please try below method
Method 1
Re Create a new ODBC & Oracle Bi Server DSN Configuration test it and use it in the connection pools.
define your ODBC data source in your server where the BI Server is installed. Check your DB connections in your physical layer and make they are defined on your BI Server as well.
Method 2:
try using the complete TNS in below format in the datasource name section:
(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST =DB IP)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL) ) and provide the credentials.
Method 3:
To use the OCI call interface you need to have oracle client DB to be installed so that you can establish a connection using that DB credentials and connect to the remote dB and then import the tables.....this is the rule of thumb.
hope helps you.
Thanks
