Warehouse Builder - Repository - How extract ?

Sorry for my broken english, but i need your help.
I must write about Warehouse Builder Repository.(Describe).
My Teacher say, that i must import repository to designer and than i will see scheme (and then describe all elements).
But how do that ?
Maybe you have some information about Warehouse Builder Repository ?
Thanks for help.

Thanks for answer.
I begining with Oracle, and sorry if my questions are maybe stupid ;)
1. I must download Database 10g + designer 10g + OWB 10g - and this is all ? Or maybe also Oracle Developer
Suite 10g ?
Please give me direct link to this software, becouse today i download a lot of this software, but the is so many version that i don't now, what is good.
2. To write about Warehouse Builder Repository.(Describe) i must load some exmaple warehouse ? i think, that no ?
Thanks.

Error during warehouse builder repository assistant

hi every body ,
i have Oracle 11g and working on warehouse builder 11g too .
( OS = windows Xp Sp2 )
both DB and warehouse have the same oracle home .
i have created the first db called : DB1
during warehouse builder repository assitant i saw this error :
OWBSYS is not granted access to c:\oracle\product\11.1.0\db_1\owb\bin\admin\rtrepos.properties: Please run Unified/Repos/reset_owbcc_home.sql specifying the path of the Oracle Home from which the Control Center Servie is being run.
i fixed it , by adding one entry to reset_owbcc_home.sql and every thing goes well .
i have created another Oracle DB called DB2 .
both DB are in one oracle home .
when i run OWB repository assistant for DB2 i see that message again and i can not continue .
pls guid me
thanks
Padideh ( [email protected] )

hi David ,
i didn't get your mean . for DB1 i had these entries in reset_owbcc_home.sql :
1- dbms_java.grant_permission('OWBSYS','java.io.FilePermission', path||'\owb\bin\admin\rtrepos.properties','read,write');
2- dbms_java.grant_permission('OWBSYS','java.io.FilePermission', unix_path||'/owb/bin/admin/rtrepos.properties', 'read,write');
3- dbms_java.grant_permission('OWBSYS','java.io.FilePermission', path||'/owb/bin/unix/run_service.sh', 'read,execute');
4- dbms_java.grant_permission('OWBSYS','java.io.FilePermission', path||'\owb\bin\win32\run_service.bat', 'read,execute');
the first entry is for windows that i have added to current entries .
i can not understand how come oracle can not give permission to another DB for that properties file . all situation is the same as for DB1 .

How to Install oracle warehouse builder repository

OS Enterprise linux for oracle
database 11G
I have installed oracle warehouse builder 11G .
Pls tell about any link to install Repository in linux environment.

go to <ORACLE_HOME>/owb/unifiedrepos
directory
then run the following order
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @clean_owbsys.sql
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @cat_owb.sql SYSAUX
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @unlock_owbsys.sql
sqlplus "/ as sysdba" @reset_owbcc_home <DB_ORACLE_HOME>
IF OWB has been installed with Oracle11g DB installation.
Then from design center itself you can configure the workspace.
Most cases this will resolve your issue.

Warehouse Builder - Workflow - How to integrate both?

Hi All
I have installed Oracle Workflow Server in a SUN machine; and the Oracle
Workflow Client (Builder) in a WIN2000 machine.
In the SUN machine, I already had installed Oracle9i and OMS (Oracle
Management Server) version 9.2.0.1.0.
In the WINDOWS 2000 machine, I already had installed the Oracle9i
Client and the OWB (Oracle Warehouse Builder) version 9.0.3.35.0. Workflow Builder
was installed together with Oracle Client components.
I have a OWB (Oracle Warehouse Builder) project, and I deploy and schedule JOBS in OEM.
Now I need Oracle Workflow in order to better ordering, manage and schedule that jobs.
I'm reading the following documentation:
Oracle Workflow Guide (Release 2.6.2)
http://www.csis.gvsu.edu/GeneralInfo/Oracle/workflow.920/a95265.pdf
But I think Oracle Workflow is very complex to learn quickly.
My OWB Project has several mappings that load tables in a Data Warehouse.
When I deploy these mappings one by one, in OEM, I can execute them in OEM
and they work well.
But when I use the Workflow Deployment Wizard, I create a new Workflow
Project (Item type and Process).
But I can't Launch this process. I go to Launch Process in Workflow page
(http://<my_machine>:<port>/pls/<WorkDAD>/) but when I iniciate the project,
it stops in the OWB Standard Begin Function. It does not go ahead.
Well, when I use the Workflow Deployment Wizard inside OWB, it generates jobs that can
be viewed inside OEM (Oracle Enterprise Manager) too. But when I submit
these jobs, I can't get success too.
Can somebody help me? May you guide me in order to solve my problem, or send me some
documents or links about workflow, and it's integration with OWB and OEM?

Mark, I've already made the steps you suggested.
As it did not works yet, I will explain step by step what I've made, and the versions of the softwares:
In my Win2000 machine (development) I have installed:
- OWB version "9.0.3.33.0" and updated it to "9.0.3.35.0". (in a Oracle9iDS ORACLE_HOME).
- the OEM version "9.2.0.1.0" and Oracle Workflow Builder version "2.6.1.5.2" (in a Oracle9i ORACLE_HOME), both were installed with Oracle9i Client. Here maybe an error is the OWF Builder version, is there an newer version of it?
In a SUN SOLARIS machine (the server) we have installed:
- OMS version "9.2.0.1.0".
- OWF Server version "2.6.2" (installed with Oracle "9.0.2.1").
- Apache HTTP Server version "1.3" (also installed with Oracle "9.0.2.1").
- The repository for OWB, OEM and OWF (both 3 are different schemas in one database), and the target Warehouse (another database) are installed in this machine (SUN) too.
Well, working in my OWB project I can normaly deploy my tables, views and mappings in the target warehouse.
I can also run these jobs (generated by OWB) and they populate the Warehouse tables. It is exactly what I need, but now I need to schedule and order these jobs in workflow, you know.
When I run the Workflow Deployment Wizard (in OWB), in the "connect information for the Workflow Server" screen, I fill in with the "owf_mgr" username and its password. In the next screen I choose one or more mappings.
Next, suppose I fill in the Workflow Item Type as WIT_DW and the Workflow Process as WP_DW.
And in the last screen, I check the option "Deploy the Workflow Process into OEM".
It generates 4 jobs in OEM:
- WIT_DW_OWB_STD_BEGIN
- WIT_DW_OWB_STD_END
- WIT_DW_OWB_STD_ERROR
- WIT_DW_WP_DW
Next, I go to the Oracle Workflow Builder, open the project I've created (in the Database), make the flow, and save the project.
Next, I come back to the OEM and Submit the "WIT_DW_WP_DW" job, but it does not work. So, there's something wrong yet.
About the Workflow Queue Listener:
- Together with OWB 9.0.33.3.0 installation, there's the directory "extras\wfql_unix". I copied this directory contents inside "$ORACLE_HOME" in SUN.
- Inside OWB, in the Warehouse Module, in the "Configuration Properties DATA_WAREHOUSE" screen, I filled in the "Run
Time Directories > Queue Listener Directory" field with "/disk1/oracle/owb/bin/solaris". (It's the local where the workflowqlsnr.sh is located). And in the field "Queue Listener Host" I put the name of the SUN machine.
- But I can't run the workflowqlsnr.sh with success. Some java errors occurs. Is there anything to do or configure yet?
More questions (Please I'd very glad if you could help me):
- Is there some thing I need to configure in the Workflow Manager page?
(http://[machine]:[port]/servlets/em/oam/wfm/wfmLogin$tns_address=)
E.g., change or add Background Engine / Agent Listener / Queue Propagation / Purge.
- Is there some thing I need to configure in the Workflow home page?
(http://[machine]:[port]/pls/[WorkDAD]/wfa_html.home)
- How do I erase the Workflow Items Type in the Workflow Home Page? I runned the "workflowqclr.sh" but it didn't erase.
Thanks again

You wrote:
Adriano,
In order to manage the dependencies between the mappings using Oracle Workflow you have to do the following:
- Deploy your mappings (PL/SQL into the database; ABAP to the SAP machine; SQL loader on to the target database's file system).
- Register all mappings in OEM (that is, using the tcl scripts and the OEM register button).
- Run the Workflow deployment wizard to create the process steps in Oracle Workflow. At the end of the wizard, you can choose to create Workflow jobs to invoke the process flow.
- Use Workflow Builder to build the actual process flow (so far you have only created the process steps). Save the process.
- Either use OEM to submit the process or use the workflowqlsnr.sh to invoke the workflow queue listener manually. In order to use OEM, make sure you have set the Workflow Queue listener path correctly in the configuration of the target module.
Then... figgers crossed... it should work.
Hope this helps,
Mark.

Problem with Warehouse Builder Repository Installation

I try to install OWB 11.2 on a newly installed 11.2 database on a German Windows 7 x64 machine. When I start the Repository Assistant I get at a progress of 40% and the line "Element SeedData.XML 99% verarbeiten" the Message: Die Eigentümerinstallation des Warehouse Builder-Workspace wurde bei Benutzer OWBSYS nicht erfolgreich ausgeführt.

Before I run the Repository Assistant I started the scripts:
@C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\owb\UnifiedRepos\clean_owbsys.sql
@C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\owb\UnifiedRepos\cat_owb.sql TS_OWB_REPO

alter user owbsys identified by password account unlock;

I also tried the installation from an other machine and started additionally the skript
@C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\owb\UnifiedRepos\remote_owb_install.sql C:\Oracle\product\11.2.0\dbhome_1\
but the result is the same.
Where is my mistake?

I found my mistake. The tablespace was too small :-(
It had only 20MB instead of 200MB that I wanted to give it. Somehow strange. After I increased the tablespace to 200MB I got the following message in the repository assistant.
INS0005: Tablespace TS_OWB_REPO hat nicht genügend freien Speicherplatz zum Installieren der owb_repository_owner??-Objekte. Es stehen 0 Byte freier Speicherplatz zur Verfügung. Es sind 262144 Byte erforderlich. Erhöhen Sie die Größe des Tablespace, oder wählen Sie einen anderen Tablespace aus.
even if the tablespace was totally empty. After I set the tablespace to "autoextend on" the repository builder finished without errors even if it used only about 150MB of the 200MB.

Warehouse builder repository creation

Hi,
Is there someone who had the same error like this:
Error occurred during Seeding OWBSYS. Exception =java.lang.Exception: Exception occured in 'processLoadJavaToken'. oracle.ide.ExitNotAllowedException
I got this error when I am trying to install new repository.
Everything goes fine, until the last step...
I tried option to
1. @clean_owbsys.sql
2. @cat_owb.sql
3. @reset_owbcc_home.sql ,
but didn't help!
My OS is windows server 2003 32bit and
database is 11g r2
thx,
Ed,

Let's hear it for another stellar job of testing by Oracle Development.
This fails in Windows 7 and in XP.
Hey, Oracle, do you support Windows or not? I had exactly the same trouble, and I just downloaded the software 3 days ago. You KNOW about the problem, yet you don't care enough to fix it MONTHS after the problem is reported.
Pathetic. Just pathetic. I don't see how they go home at night proud of what they accomplished during the day. I will never, never, NEVER understand Oracle and its "who gives a damn if it works or not" attitude.

Oracle Applications Release 12 and Oracle Warehouse Builder 10gR2

Hi
I'm trying to deploying process flows to Workflow but I get the following error:
RPE-02054: The version of Oracle Workflow is incompatible with this Control Center. Required 2.6.3, but found 2.6.0.
Comment I found on another thread: "As far Workflow Versions with Oracle Applications is concerned, it is always 2.6.0. Workflow is not identified with its 2.6.x versioning in Oracle Applications. The 2.6.x.x versioning is purely for Workflow Standalone."
Oracle Warehouse Builder Client: 10.2.1.31
Oracle Warehouse Builder Repository: 10.2.0.1.0
Oracle Applications Release 12
Any help would be appreciated.

May be the excerpt from the other thread is a response I posted.
So, when you say, deploying process flows to Workflow, I do not understand what you are doing exactly? If this involves the Oracle Warehouse Builder you may want to explain a little more in detail since I do not understand how OWB works with Workflow. But as far as I have heard, it is Workflow standalone that is packaged with OWB but you are deploying into Oracle Applications.
What is the version of Oracle Workflow Builder you are using?
Is the steps you are doing certified to be done with Oracle Applications R12?
Thanks

A bug in the warehouse builder regarding mappings of dimensions

Hi there
I do not know if this is the right place to submit a possible bug. Anyways - here goes.
Warehouse builder client: 10.1.0.2.0
Warehouse builder repository: 10.1.0.1.0
I'm creating a dimension, having one level attributes property as a varchar2(30). Thus it has a length of 30. Now, later on I decide this was an error. I update the property to a number, deploys, and reconcile the dimension inbound in the mapping. From now on, it will give an error, since it remembers the length. And a number has a size, not a length. If I remove the dimension from the mapping, and inserts it again, the error still occurs.
By the way, I am able to reproduce this.
Anyone who has experienced this, and can blame the stupid user (me) or classify this as a bug?
Yours
Kim Andersen

Hi Igor
The "error" is actually a "warning":
Warning: VLD-1004: Column length of ASD_ASDASD is longer than the target column length.
where ASD_ASDASD is the dimension property, which I altered. It is annoying, though, to have warnings on the list, that aren't needed. And I also spent considerable time thinking that was the error in a mapping, whereas it was a stupid mistake made by me somewhere else :)
If it's a registered bug, do I get to win some branded Oracle candy?! :)
Yours
Kim

Is workflow included in 10.2.0.4 warehouse builder?

Hi there
Is oracle workflow included within 10.2.0.4?
From otherhelpful replies, I have learnt we need to install oracle 10.2.0.1 then the 10.2.04 patch to bring us up to 10.2.0.4.
We need to run process flows so I understand we need oracle workflow.
Is this included within the warehouse builder installs (both client and server or is it just a the server-side we would need to worry about?) or do we need separate installs for these?
Does anyone know which versions of worklfow we would need for 10.2.0.4 in the event that separate installs are needed?
Many Thanks

Hi Patrick
Thanks for the info.
Just finished installing 10.2.0.1 on Windows client and the 10.2.0.4 patch on top of that.
Can I assume I can ignore the bit in the readme below where it talks about the upgrade utility since we have yet to create our repository.
Many Thanks
5. Navigate to the appropriate execution directory under the Warehouse Builder home directory and run the upgrade utility. The specific file you should execute depends on the release of the Oracle Database you are running.
For Windows, the .bat files are located under the win32 directory. If your Oracle Database is either 9iR2 or10gR1 run the following:
owb home/owb/bin/win32/DTupg102to10204_10gR1.bat
Or, if your Oracle Database is 10gR2 run the following:
owb home/owb/bin/win32/DTupg102to10204_10gR2.bat
For UNIX, the .sh files are located under the unix directory. If your Oracle Database is either 9iR2 or 10gR1, run the following:
owb home/owb/bin/unix/DTupg102to10204_10gR1.sh
Or, if your Oracle Database is 10gR2 run the following:
owb home/owb/bin/unix/DTupg102to10204_10gR2.sh
6. Enter the database connection information, the Warehouse Builder repository owner credentials, and the SYS user credentials.
The upgrade utility proceeds to upgrade the Warehouse Builder objects associated with the selected repository owner.
The upgrade utility logs any errors in the file owb home/owb/reposasst/upg/LOG.TXT. Note that you can ignore any creation errors reported due to objects already existing.
DROP TABLE dataflow_dependency_t
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist

Oracle Warehouse Builder Problem

Hello All,
I have just installed oracle warehouse builder 10g on windows 2000 system.
My database is oracle 10gR2
While connecting Oracle Repository Assistant, when I provide sys user/password and other credentials i got following error:
INS0003: OWB Repository Installation cannot continue without DBA privileges. Connect as DBA and use option Create a New Warehouse Builder Repository to continue the process.
Sys user is already having sysdba rights. I have tried to login with another dba account but still same error.
Any help??

Hello,
I have found the solution to this problem.

I have installed oracle 10gR1 and now it is working.

Warehouse builder example schemas

Hi
I have created warehouse builder repository own and during the creation i have added SH schema. I was expecting that i will be able to see its dimension, rule etc but nothing
what are the other example schema i can add for practice
thank
regards
Nick

OK, a few quick points...
1. Build a 'location' that can access the SH schema.
2. In your OWB project, expand the Oracle database node and build an oracle database module...this module should ideally use the SH schema 'location' connector you just created.
3. At this point you can import the SH data and objects into OWB through that database module.(import option).
If what you want is to see real dimensions, and cubes (facts) that are already pre-built, go to the links that the poster above has mentioned (the oracle by example ones). In those pages, they will link to several different .MDL files you may import. These store metadata already for a pre-built project that allowes you to see mappings with real dimensions and cubes (facts).

How to register user in Warehouse Builder

Hi All,
I have installed OWB 11g in my machine. I have created repository owner user in OLAP schema. In my process flows few flows are related to "OLAP instance" and few flows are related to "OLTP instance". Now I want to register my OLTP user present in OLTP instance, but when I start the wizard for registering user I get only OLAP instance users.
Please let me know how can I register my OLTP user of OLTP instance.
Is there any way to register database user manually in warehouse builder i.e. without using register user wizard?
Thanks
VishalS

Hi,
create the users as repos-owner in the design center or grant the roles to an existing db user. Don't make them to TARGET users!
Then selct the project, right mouse-click opens the context menue, select configuration, select the security tab and revoke all permissions except read from this users.

Detlef

How ETL (mappings) is done in Warehouse Builder ??

Hi All,
I am new to warehouse builder and was wondering if there is tutorials or video tutorials on how mapping works in warehouse Builder.
I need to use this builder to map different tables from different schemas.
example:
schema_1 schema_2
table1 -----> maps to ------> table2
col1 -----------------> col1
col2 ---------------> col2
col3 --------------> col3
Anything to get me started would be great.
Thanks for the help.

How to run a unix script from oracle warehouse Builder

Hi,
can any one share the information about, running the unix script or scripts using oracle warehouse builder.
Regards,
Ak

One way is define a workflow. Inside the workflow you put
1)an external process that "points to" the shell script and then
2)put the mapping
The external process must have the "COMMAND" parameter set to the name of the shell script. If the script has parameters you must put them in the "PARAMETERS LIST" separated by "?" (for example, ?par1?par2).
The path where OWB executes the external process I think is the ORACLE_HOME of the OWB.
f you don't use workflow, you can try with this more complex solution. I tried with 9i and OWB 9.2 and it's working well.
You create an autonomous procedure (within a package or not) :
CREATE PROCEDURE Extract_Email_List
DECLARE
PRAGMA AUTONOMOUS_TRANSACTION;
And use the sys.shell script that you need your dba/unix admin to install first of all, with a call like that.
sys.shell('sh ' || txt_dir_name || '/send_email_marketing.sh ' || txt_dir_name || ' ' || email_addr );
Then you import your procedure into OWB and use it in your mapping with the "pre-mapping" icon (you can set parameters for your proc with constants if you want).
To implement sys.shell, go to metalink and find "Note:168065.1" - "How to call a UNIX shell script from PL/SQL".
Once it's done once, it's not so bad. But I would still recommend the workflow approach also..
I hope this helps.

How to perform auto update in staging database using warehouse builder ?

Hi ,
here our client requirement is?
our client want to transfer data from their production database to staging database using warehouse builder.and also what ever the update occur in production database
that must be reflected in staging database.
here we are transfering data from product-db to staging using etl(maping--insert/update operator )
it is transfering fine.but it is not automaticaly updating in staging db with new update in production database?
can any body give me the details how to achive it.
Thanks & regards,
k azamtulla khan.

Hi,
firstly there are two threads for the same issue from youself(excluding this one) which is a waste of others time so kindly refrain from doing so and use one thread.
OWB: how can automatic updation perform in staging database using OWB
OWB: how to use insert/update table operator for target table
secondly, with regards to the options , here are some options:
1. Use trigger for update.
2. Use materialized view(refresh on commit)
3. Use oracle advance queing mechanism (OAQ) for queing the recent inserted/updated records.
Kindly close other threads and maintain just one thread.
Regards
