Exporting MS SQL Server Or Oracle Databases To MySQL
Jul 20, 2005

I have created a rather large (60 table database) website dealio in PHP that
works with MS SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL and presumably any other data base I
add to
the wrapper functions that I created. All the development was done in
Oracle, but now its time to create that large datastructure again in
MySQL -- now I've built this all in notepad for Oracle (twice) and built it
in SQL Server using the SQL Server import tools (pretty nice) -- is there
anything that I can do that to get this datastructure and maybe even the
data into MySQL using Oracle/MS SQL Server tools ?
I have two different databases - one in MySQL (eV12) and the other in SQL Server (Brutus). I am using DBVisualizer to perform queries. In the eV12 db, I have 3 tables to search on. In Brutus db, I have 2 tables to search on.
the problem is, I was asked to compare data from one table in eV12 to Brutus database. Is there a way to search using and SQL statement techniques?
Dear All, I am working on a project to migrate a .net desktop application to web based application using ASP.NET 2.0. The present app has lots of tables with data in sql server 2000. The new app is to have Oracle 10.2 G as data store. Although the data store is being changed most of the tables in the present database will remain same along with the data they hold. My problem is: 1) how to transfer the tables to the new datastore 10.2 G in an automated way? After all it's not possible to create each table afresh in Oracle and then insert records into each table one by one. If that is done it will take atleast few months if not years. 2) can I export the tables to a xml file and then import it from Oracle.How to do that? It has become a nightmare for me. Pls suggest the easiest way and which takes the minimum time. A solution to the problem will be gratefully accepted. Thanks.
Hi All, I am trying to export SQL 7.0 table to oracle 8i using SQL Server export utility. Table gets created in Oracle but no data is exported. Also the oracle table is inaccessible and even doesn't allow me to drop that table.
Has anyone successfully used cherry's oledb provider for MYSQL to create a linked server from MS SQLserver 2005 to a Linux red hat platform running MYSQL.
I can not get it to work.
I've created a UDL which tests fine. it looks like this
[oledb]
; Everything after this line is an OLE DB initstring
I am transferring data from Oracle tables into text files, and facing these errors.
1. I have a varaible working as an expression and my query goes into that variable and onwards that variable is passed to dataflow task, which parse the query. my query is simple saying "Select * from PLS.ABC" where PLS is my schema, but the task generates error "Opening a rowset for "Select * from PLS.ABC" failed. check that the table exists in the database. and surely the table is there.
2. I have a foreach loop that iterates through all the table names and the table names are passed onwards to the varaible query, the dataflow task inside the foreach loop gets the variable query and will generate text files based on tablenames which i have supplied in another variable to the connectionstring property of the flatfile destination. Is it possible or not. all the tables have different columns and i need the output in text files.
We are looking at consolidating our servers. We would like to have a database server, which housing our databases. However, we have some SQL 6.5 databases and Oracle 8.0.1 databases. Does anyone know if it is possible to have both on one server? If not, then it sounds like we need two database servers. Thank you.
Is there a way in SSIS to change the database connection to sqlserver or oracle or db2 without choosing the connection manager in the source.
For e.g. I ran a package which is reading data from sqlserver and later i want to connect to oracle to read the data but without changing the connection manager in the source.
Basically, i want to find out from you gurus is about a way to switch between databases without changing the connection managers. OR the only way is to make different sets of packages for oracle / db2 and sqlserver sources ?
I'm trying to implement a configurable way of executing a group of SQL statements using either an Oracle or SQL database as the source for the data.
I'm currently building a connection string with a Script Task and then assigning it to a package variable so that it can be used by a connection manager but this only works with a SQL OLEDB connection.
I'm holding all the connection details in a database table, hence the need for the scripting but would it be possible to extend the task to reuse a single connection manager by changing it's properties?
It is posible with Entreprise Library to use the SAME QUERY, by example, "Select isnull(Val,33) from calculs where Col1 is not null" (specific for Sql Server) to select data from Oracle too ? or the only way is to use specific stored procedures (queries) wtitten in 2 ways : for Oracle and for Sql Server?
We are going away from a 2003 Windows Server OS with SQL Server 2008 R2 to a 2012 Windows Server with 2012 SQL Server. Both the distributor and subscriber resides on 2003 Windows Server and the focus will be to migrate those databases to the 2012 SQL Server.
 We would also like to avoid sending down a new snapshot due to logic in the replication process (major headache to clean up data).  what's the best approach in moving the distributor and subscriber databases without having to run a snapshot? Â
In theory and needs testing:
1. Work with business users to get downtime
2. Stop sql apply so no new changes are going to the Oracle publisher database
3. Remove subscription, publication and distributor from current replication
4. Oracle DBA to clear out replication related objects - fresh clean slate
5. Use log shipping to apply last t-log and restore db with Keep_Replication
6. Set up new distribution, publication (keep existing object unchanged), and subscriber (without initialization) Will this work?
I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
we recently got a scenario that we need to get the data from oracle tables which is installed on third party servers. we have sqlserver installed on ourservers. so they have created a DBLINK in oracle server to our sqlserver and published the DBLINK name.
what are the next steps that i need to follow on my sqlserver in order to access the oracle tables ?

I have the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider installed to the (C:oraclexe) directory.
I am having problems querying from linked oracle server. When i setup oracle as a linked server and purposely enter an incorrect password the query i run tells me i have an incorrect password. So it at least knows that. when i set the correct password and run a query I get this error:
(i replaced the real server name with "someServer".)
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

I just started developing my site locally using SQL Server and am planning to move it to our work's MySQL server. Is there anything that I should be aware of before I continue any furthur? Will I lose any data or is it even an option to move from SQL Server to My SQL???
I am working for a client who needs to move database from MySQL application to MS SQL SERVER 7.0. Is there anybody who has done it before? I need some help about how to load data from one system to another system.
Hi there, I'm hoping someone out there can help me.
At my old job, I developed web applications that were based off of a MySQL server. I used PHPMyAdmin and learned the PHP coding, and although not formally trained in DBA or anything, I became very comfortable with using it and building database applications. I did everything through SQL/PHP script coding or through PHPMyAdmin.
At my new job, I decided to build a database, but only had access to MS Access, which I can use, but don’t necessarily like. One day, in earshot of one of our admins, I grumbled “if I only had access to a SQL server, I’d turn this thing into a very cool web application.� Well, he heard, and gave me access to the SQL server and the web server. Thing is, it’s not MySQL, but MS SQL Server. And I feel like I am at a total loss. I was able to build a basic database in the Enterprise Manager on the SQL server, and create a web site on the web server, but I don’t even know how to begin to connect the two – what is the equivalent of MySQLConnect? I know I would have to learn the VBScript and everything for the advanced stuff, but for right now, I just want to make a simple web page that will do a simple select query from a database and return the rows, and simple forms to input into the database. How do I begin? What do I need to know to begin? I have a feeling the applications already on the server were contracted out, so I don’t actually know if anyone here could help me.
I need to pull data out of SQL Server 2005 and load it into a MySql 5 database, and can't find a way to do this efficiently in SSIS since there's no ODBC destination, and I couldn't find an Oledb driver for MySQL. Any thoughts on the best way to accomplish this, aside from exporting to text, and then loading it into MySql via the mysql client or mysql importer?
Hey there,I'm curious about MySQL. Could anyone quickly summarize thedifferences between MySQL and SQL Server and outline why someone mightpick SQL Server over MySQL?(Please post replies here, email address is fake)Cheers,Geoff GlaveVancouver, Canada
I'm searching for a way to compare informations from one database against another database.
E.g. i want to check if serialnumbers of my first database (eg hardware.xls or hardware.csv ) are already stored in my sql server database.
I know i can use sql querys (Joins) for that task but i don't know how i can access 2 different databases at the same time. Do i need a tool for it? Does Excel is able to compare those data? But how? I'm searching for that thread since 2 days testing with some tools without any success...
I don't know if this is unique to GoDaddy: I found the program for working with a MySQL database very intuitive (to the point of compliments). Today I started work with ASP.NET and SQL, and when I went to work with SQL Server (on GoDaddy), it wasn't intuitive, and there was almost nothing on which to click. By chance might there be a tutorial that would help a person who needs to work with SQL Server on a provider like GoDaddy?
Hello all, I have an application in which the database is currently in MySQL. The app is being re-written(in .net 3.5) and I would like to move the data to SQL Server 2005. What is the best may to get the data from MySQL to SQL Server. Any good tools out there? Idealy, I would be able to manipulate the data during the move, as I have plans for some schema changes, but I suppose I could always make them after migrating. Please suggest any tools or methods, with your thoughts. I will evaluate any suggested tools. Also, SSIS is available for me, is that the best way?
hi ! i am using SQL Server 2000...someone told me the new version of Mysql 5.0 is very powerfull and it is better than MS products?!!! any good resources about the benefit of using SQL server 2000 rather than open source?!! Thanks!
I have created a linked server to a MySQL database using a DSN. Does anyone know how to run a select statement against a table in the MySQL database? The usual 4 part naming convention does not work.
I can run SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(Top50, 'SELECT * FROM orders') which does return records successfully. (Top50 being the name of the linked server)
My objective is to be able to insert records into the MySQL database and I am not sure how do to that using OPENQUERY. Any thoughts on that would be appreciated as well.
Anyone know how to go about getting data from MySql to MS SQL server? Im a little confussed as to what ODBC driver is needed and all that. Is it possible to this all through enterprise manager? Thanks a lot.
I have used this mysql code in my programm before:
select * from address order by vorname asc limit 0, 10
It works fine. But now I want to use sql server, and it doesn't recognize the term limit. So I have found out that I can use top instead. I have changed my code into this:
select top 0 * from (select top 10* from address order by vorname) order by vorname asc
Hi all, hoping someone can help. I have created an ODBC connection to a remote MySQL database. I can then go into DTS wizard and specify this ODBC connection, it all goes through fine and I can see the tables on the remote server and import data. The problem arises when I try and create a linked server using the same ODBC connection. I get the following error, when I try to view the tables. I am so stuck. Any help would be very much appreciated.
We are trying to do a linked server to MySQL from MS SQL2k. We downloaded MyODBC drivers, setup the system dsn successfully but then SQL errors out using both the GUI and the stored proc to add the linked server to mysql. Does anyone have a good site to reference or any words of advice. An hr or so of google didn't really give up any helpfully information.
