I am migrating a database from Oracle to SQL Server 2005. I have a problem when migrating code from PL-SQL (oracle labguage) to T-SQL (sql server language). My problem is: there is pseudo-column in oracle called level that return the level from a register in a tree view of a select (a parent-child relationship). I would want to know how to translate that level column to T-SQL. Thanks!

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a program that uses ADO to read/write to/from an Oracle back-end database. I'm hoping that given the underlying schema is the same, I can simply change the database driver I'm using and use a SQL Server database instead. Has anyone migrated an application using ADO from Oracle to SQL ? Are there any issues/problems/tips that I should be aware of ?
Thanks in advance..

i am migrating data and schema from oracle server to sql server., when i try to do the dts it gives me an error saying could not resolve tnsnames.ora. iam not sure what is the problem.
My oracle server host is dbserver.hari.com.edu
and its name is Prod (name of the machine)
i tried both it still gives me the same error., but when i install an oracle client on the machine and configure the same it is working great.
My question is, is it necessary to install oracle client to migrate database from oracle to sql server. If not how do i do the same...what is the process to do it. since this is a prodction machine we don't want more of applications running on the same machine.
Your help is appreciated, thanks in advance.

Hi
I am trying to migrate my database in Oracle 8i to Sql Server 2000 but am unsure of how to carry out the migration. How do I do it and what do I have to consider. My OS is Windows 2003. Thanks in advance
I am taking over a Database set up where we have 2 databases. One is a SQL SERVER 2000 db and the other is an Oracle 9i db.
THe previous DBA had/has a problem with transferring CLOB and Blob datatypes From the ORACLE db to SQL SERVER. He says that the OLEDB driver SQL SERVER provides has limitations particularly on the CLOB data because it truncates data over 4000 characters in length.
For the Blob issue:
We basically want to store/move attachments (word documents etc)
into image datatypes (SS) from the blob datatype (9i).
I figured I could do this using DTS or even using the Linked server method. I figured worst case scenario I would just store the documents on the server and then use SQL SERVER's textcopy utility to upload the documents into the image datatype column of the SQL SERVER table.
For the Clob Issue I have no idea what to do, because I cant find anything online that mentions SQL SERVER having issues with importing CLOB data over 4000 charcters in length, afterall the text datatype accomdates more than 4000 characters.
Does anyone have any suggestions for moving the Blob and most importantly the Clob datatypes from 9i to SQL SERVER without any truncation in the data????
I just wanted to know what the easiest way would be to migrate a SQL Server 2012 database to Oracle?
Apart from the tables and views, the database also uses a number of stored procedures and functions which will also need to be migrated over onto Oracle.
I guess the problem with generating scripts for the database (right clicking database > tasks > generate scripts) is that the TSQL scripts will not run in Oracle which uses PSQL? Is this correct?
I have also considered using the import/export wizard. Do I need to install a feature to use this to export to Oracle?
Hi to every one,
i have the export data from oracle to sql server.
how can i do it.
i tried through the wizard i am able to improt from oracle to sql server. but constratins are defined in oracle table are not comming in slq server.
i want to transfer data from oracle to sql(like tables,other database objects from oracle to sql).
how can i do it. is there any procedure .
could any one send the process.

I am useing SQL Server Migration Tools for Oracle to move some data for archive purposes.
The data is moving great, however the SSMA crashes or just plain stops when it tries to convert a view that has an outer join.
Is ther any sort of fix for this?
Hi all,
I have a Database in SQL Server 2000 with several objects (tables, views , stored procedures , functions ).
Is there any specific procedure or tool by which I could migrate the entire database to SQL Server 2005.

I am in the process of migrating from [Source] SQL Server 7.0 sp4 on windows NT to [Target] SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2003 Server.
Please suggest me what should be the migration approach it this case.
Would De-attach and attach of DB still be valid if OS changes? (both are 32 bit OS).

Has anyone had experience of migrating from 2000 to 2005 on the same box , and maintaining the SERVERNAMEINSTANCE_NAME.
What are some effective ways of migrating and retaining the same servername/instance name ?
The issue revolves around minimising the use of extra boxes , as I would like to do the migration on the same server and keep the name the same .

I created a web site using the "personal web site" starter kit with Visual Studio 2005. It created an ASPNET MDF file as well as a Personal.MDF in my App_Data directory.
I want to migrate this site to a production server that does not have SQL Express, but does have a full version of SQL Server 2005.
How do I migrate both the database format (tables and SPs) as well as the data to the SQL Server?
I can't find anything that looks like Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer on my system, and installing the "native client tools" doesn't do anything except install configuration utilities (no clients).
Inside of Visual Studio 2005, I can bring up both databases (one from the MDF file(s) and one using a connection string to the server), but there doesn't appear to be any way to copy from one to the other.
There must be an easy way to do this, right?
Many thanks in advance!

Greetings,
I have a problem, i am upgrading a system that uses Oracle databases for using SQL Server 2005 databases. The thing is that the operator (+) (involved in many queries) is from Oracle and operators(*= and =*) are not supported in SQL Server 2005 (and not comply with the Ansi standard) i need help translating these queries. An example would be like this:
SELECT ...
FROM IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ, IBA_MPPERMISOS, IBA_MPENTIDADES, IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS, IBA_MPPROCEDENCIAS, IBA_LOCALIZACIONES, IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC, IBA_USUARIOS
WHERE IBA_LOCALIZACIONES.ID_LOCACLIZACION = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.ID_LOCACLIZACION
AND IBA_MPPROCEDENCIAS.IDPROCEDENCIA = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIA
AND IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPROCEDENCIALOCALIZACION
AND IBA_MPENTIDADES.IDENTIDAD (+) = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDENTIDAD
AND IBA_MPPERMISOS.IDPERMISO (+) = IBA_MPPROCEDXLOC.IDPERMISO
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.IDREQUERIMIENTO = IBA_MPREQUERIMIENTOS.IDREQUERIMIENTO
AND IBA_MPACCIONESXREQ.USERNAME = IBA_USUARIOS.USERNAME
ORDER BY ...
I didnt include the SELECT and ORDER BY text because i dont think its important. Also i know that you have to move the outer joins to the FROM clause but i didnt manag to get it. Could you help me? thank you in advance.

When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success)
- Add task for transferring database objects (Success)
- Create package (Success)
- Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success)
- Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error)
Messages
* The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
When connecting to SQL Server 2005,
this failure may be caused by the fact
that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
How do I solve this problem?
I want to migrate my Access XP database to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The Start Menu does not display any migration assistant in SQL Server 2005 Express menu list.
How to migrate it?
SQL Server 2000, ASP.Net 1.1
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the
conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data
to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the
datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i
need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem
with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me
to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order
to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve
them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date
in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a
string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better
off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring
Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with
the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work
manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my
issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some
direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's
got to be a better way...
Confused!
Thanks,

I have successfully moved my data from a SQL Server 2000 hosting site to a SQL Server 2005 hosting site. I Made a backup of my database using Enterprise Manager (2000) and imported the database tables using SQL Server Management Studio (2005). I do not know how to move the 25 or so stored procedures that I have in SQL Server 2000. I have a very short amount of time to figure this out and am hoping that someone can give me a brief step by step answer on how to get this done. I would appreciate any information you can provide. Thank you!!

Obviously the normal way would be to store it on the filesystem of the web server (or any other middleware server).But I am asking if there is a way to store these files in the database, and not affect too much of the performance of the web page?I know a picture can be stored easily, but what about all the other file types? I would appreciate if someone can spead light of the subject.Thanks,Tranquil.

I´m building an aplication with VB.net and SQL Server 9, but in the future it will be compatible with PostgreSQL (by another developer), so my question is, if anyone knows what "data types" in SQL Server 9 i must use to maintain compatibility with PostgreSQL, so that when the time come for the conversion i don t have to chage the "Data Types" on each table.
Any help would be apreciated.

How to Downgrade a Database from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000
As you may all know, SQL Server 2005 request a minimum of 8GB RAM to work€¦ let say satisfactorily. I first didn€™t knew that and after a while from the upgrade I did from SQL Server 2000 to 2005 my SQL Services were starting to crash three or four times per DAY!!!
At first I thought I was being attacked, but soon I realized it was nothing like that. I then decided to downgrade to an SQL Server 2000 edition. Though I looked around the internet to find some information on how to do that, I got very disappointed when I realized that no actual documentation of any kind could be found for that. So I am posting this thread to inform you on the procedures I had to follow for this action.
Before beginning I must assume, firstly that the user, who will attempt such thing, has a basic knowledge of SQL Environment, secondly that he has the two versions already installed (both 2000 and 2005), that a basic backup of the databases has been created and finally that all the 2005 SQL Server Users have been created at the SQL Server 2000 environment as well.
Step 1 Generating Scripts for the Database Elements and Structures
1) Right-click over the desired Database at 2005, Choose Tasks and the Generate Scripts (Option).
2) At the pop-up Dialog Box click at the Script All Objects in the selected Databases check box, to activate it and then Click the Next Button.
3) Set the following Elements to the following Values
a. Script Collation , set to TRUE
b. Script Database Create, set to TRUE
c. Script of SQL Version, set to SQL SERVER 2000
d. Script foreign keys, set to FALSE
e. Script Triggers, set to FALSE
Then Hit the Next button
4) Select the way the generated scripts should be saved (There are different selections. The most common one is Clipboard). Finally click the Next button till you reach the end.
5) Click Finish
After completing this procedure, we have to move to the SQL SERVER 2000 environment. Here, by using the Query Analyzer, we will have to run the scripts that were generated using the master database. Copy and Paste the script at the Query Analyzer and run it. After that the Structure of the Database will be created.
Be careful, the SQL Server 2005 Edition inserts the Views in a random place through the script. Therefore, all the scripts that are referred to the Views MUST be moved to the end of the script. If the Query Analyzer shows some errors do not be bothered. Delete all the elements created from the script and after you fix the code run it again.
Step2 Moving the data from 2005 to 2000
1) After completing the previous step successfully, moving the data follows. Right-click at the 2005 database you used to run the previous step and select Tasks and then choose the Export Data (option).
2) From the pop-up Dialog Box, select the Source Db and Click at the Next Button.
3) At the next step you will have to choose the destination server and the destination Database for the Data to be exported. Then Click Next.
4) A List of all the Source Database€™s Elements will appear in the screen. Select one by one all the Elements you wish to move and for each one click at the button Edit Mappings (Located at the bottom right corner of the Dialog Box just under the Elements list). A new Dialog box will pop-up. Select the Delete rows in Destination Tables option and activate the Enable Identity Insert Option. (Remember to repeat this action for each of the selected Element from the list that will be moved.
CAUTION!!! A malfunction of the SQL Server 2005 has been found. Not sure why, after multiple tries I have observed that when I tried to move more than twelve Elements at once, the Export Data Wizard of SQL Server 2005 seemed to disable the Enable Identity Insert Option that was activated over the Edit Mappings Dialog Box. But if the number of the selected Elements is smaller than 12 no problem seemed to appear.
Step 3 Generating Scripts for the Database Foreign Keys and Triggers
Finally, to successfully finish the downgrade of the Database, the Triggers and the Foreign Keys of the DB must be produced. The procedure that should be followed is the one stated next:
1) Right-Click at the SQL 2005 Database and Select from Tasks Menu the Generate Scripts Option.
2) Using the pop-up Dialog Box make sure that the check box Script All Objects in the selected Databases is not enabled and hit the Next Button.
3) Set all the Elements on the List to a False Value except the ones that follow:
a. Include IF NOT EXISTS , set to TRUE
b. Script Owner, set to TRUE
c. Script of SQL Version, set to SQL SERVER 2000
d. Script foreign keys, set to TRUE
e. Script Triggers, set to TRUE
Then Hit the Next button
4) After finishing reading the Elements of the Database, a new list will appear at the Dialog Box. Make sure that you select ONLY THE TABLES of the Database and hit the Next Button.
5) At the screen that follows hit the Select All button and the Next.
6) Select the way the generated scripts should be saved (There are different selections. The most common one is Clipboard). Finally click the Next button till you reach the end.
7) Click Finish Button.
After completing this procedure, we have to move to the SQL SERVER 2000 environment. Here, by using the Query Analyzer, we will have to run the scripts that were generated using the master database. Copy and Paste the script at the Query Analyzer and run it. After that the Foreign Keys and the Triggers of the Database will be created.
After these steps the database should be fully functional under the SQL Server 2000 edition.

I have a simple Integration Services project and the problem is that decimal fields are importing as real (I'm loosing the digits behind the decimal point).
The project contains a data flow task importing a flat file (.csv) to an SQL Server destination. My .csv file has two decimal type fields. Example:
Field 1: 12345.67
Field 2: .123456
My database table that I'm importing to has two fields. The only way that I can get this data to import is to define the fields as "float" in both the text file and database table. I want the database table fields to be defined as decimal or numeric, not float:
Field 1: decimal(7,2)
Field 2: decimal(6,6)
When all fields are defined as decimal (in both the flat file and database file), I get the following results:
Field 1: 12345.00
Field 2: .000000
How does one import decimal data from a flat file (.csv)?
Thank you in advance!
