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.
View 1 RepliesHi All,
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 ?
Thanks,
Vipul
I also posted similarly in mailing.database.mysqlI have created a rather large (60 table database) website dealio in PHP thatworks with MS SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL and presumably any other data base Iadd tothe wrapper functions that I created. All the development was done inOracle, but now its time to create that large datastructure again inMySQL -- now I've built this all in notepad for Oracle (twice) and built itin SQL Server using the SQL Server import tools (pretty nice) -- is thereanything that I can do that to get this datastructure and maybe even thedata into MySQL using Oracle/MS SQL Server tools ?James
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'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?
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 issue using parameterised reports connecting to Oracle using "ODBC" and "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" using parameteried reports. The following error is generated "ORA-01008 not all variables bound (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle)" and a similiar one for ODBC. It works fine for simple reports. Do these 2 drivers have issues passing parameters for a remote Oracle query?
Thanks.
Hi!
I'm loading from Oracle using the OraOLEDB.Oracle.1 provider since I need unicode support and I get the following error:
TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
Error at myTask [DTS.Pipeline]: The "output column "myColumn" (9134)" has a precision that is not valid. The precision must be between 1 and 38.
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0204018 (Microsoft.SqlServer.DTSPipelineWrap)
------------------------------
BUTTONS:

------------------------------
For most of my queries to Oracle I can cast the columns to get rid of the error (CAST x AS DECIMAL(10) etc), but this does not work for:
1) Union
I have a select like "SELECT NVL(myColumn, 0) .... FROM myTable UNION SELECT 0 AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL"
Even if I cast the columns in both selects (SELECT CAST(NVL(myColumn, 0) AS DECIMAL(10, 0) .... UNION SELECT CAST(0 AS DECIMAL(10, 0)) AS myColumn, .... FROM DUAL) I still get the error above.
2) SQL command from variable
The select basically looks like this:
"SELECT Column1, Column2, ... FROM myTable WHERE Updated BETWEEN User::LastLoad AND User::CurrentLoad"
Again, even if I cast all columns (like in the union), I still get the same error.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Is there any step by step help sites for setting up SQL 2005 linked (oracle 10) server?
I find MSDN articles but they referance winNT and 2000, I'm not getting very far and I'm not a DBA but need to get this working asap.
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 ?
Hello,
On my dev server I have working ssis packages that use connections Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle MSDAORA.1 and Oracle provider for oledb and OracleClient data provider.
I use one or the other according to my needs.
In anticipation and to prepare for the build of a new production server, I have build a test server from scratch and deployed to it the entire dev.
Almost everything works except Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle.
ssis packages on the test machine will return an error
Error at Pull Calendar from One [OLE DB Source [1]]: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "one.oledb" failed with error code 0xC0202009.

An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Oracle error occurred, but error message could not be retrieved from Oracle.".
I have used the same installers for OS, SQL and Oracle SQL*Net on both dev and test machines. The install and then the restore/deployment on Test went fine.
Does anyone could point me to the right direction to solve this issue?

Hi Everyone,
I've been searching for a solution for this for a week-ish, so I thought I would post my quesiton directly. Here is my scenario..
Source: MS SQL Server
Destination: Oracle 10g
The destination table has a partition set on a column called "DATE_HIGH". How do I populate this date high column in my package? Currently I just have a source object, and a destination object, but I'm unclear how to populate this field in the destination. I've read one blog that states "use OLE DB Command" - but that isn't enough information for me to implement - Can someone be more specific in these steps? Here is an example of what my newb-ness needs to understand
OLE DB Source (Select * from Table) ---> OLE DB Command (What query goes here?) --> OLE DB Destination.
Second part of my question: There is a second column called "ROW_NUM" and there is an Oracle Sequence provided to me... What objects do I need (Source, Destination, OLE DB Command etc...) and how do I call this sequence to populate on the fly as I'm loading data from my source?
If these are simple questions - my appologies, I am new to the product.
Best Regards,
Steve Collins
Hi everybody,
I have designed a DTS package which will migrate a view from Sqlserver 2000 to Oracle.My package is using Microsoft OLEDB provider for Oracle driver for connecting to oracle.Im able to execute this package on the my system ie on the system where sqlclient is installed(Oracle client is also installed on my machine) .But when im doing it on the server im not able to do it.The Connection to Oracle Fails.
I wanted to know in order to connect to Oracle from the server,is it necessary that Oracle has to be installed on the server?.If yes, is it enough if i install oracle client on the server or Oracle Server version has to be installed on Server.
Please suggest me wht should i do know?
Thanks in advance

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.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer".
This is how I set up my Linked server:
Provider: "Oracle Provider for OLE DB"
Product Name: SomeServer
Data Source: SomeServer
Provider String: "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=SomeServer;User Id=MyLogin;Password=MyPassword"
The query I run is:
Select * from [Someserver].[schema or database]..[tbl_name]
Any help??? What am i missing?
Oracle and MS drivers do not support parameterized queries, so update table set column=? where primarykey=? does not work for Oracle.
Anyone knows how to update an Oracle table through SSIS?
Thanks!

My application which ran perfectly well yesterday suddenly stopped working in this morning with following error message. I didn't change anything, at least I believe. Interesting thing is that I don't use any Oracle connection but connects to MS SQL Server 2005 Express version locally. Error messages are different according to the connection string though I don't think it makes difference:
ConnectionString = <add key="Databasehandtool1" value="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=handtool;SSPI=true" />ErrorMessage from VS2008 ="Unable to get records. Object reference not set to an instance of an object."
ConnectionString = <add key="Databasehandtool1" value="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;Database=handtool;User Id=handtool_DB;Password=mypassword" />ErrorMessage from VS2008 = "Unable to get records. Unable to connect to database. ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified." By the way, the application was generated from IronSpeed 5.1 Enterprise. My development environment is : VS2008, SQL2005 EXPRESS, Windows XP SP2, ASP.NET 2.0
We have actually an Oracle server in the network though. My gut feeling is that something might have changed in my network server during the night but how come it can possibly affect my application running on my local PC. I checked the connection of local SQL Express Server from SQL Server Management Studio and it connected well with UserID=handtoo_DB and showed all tables and stored procedures required for the application. So there is no problem in SQL Server database side.
I would welcome and appreciate any input.

Hi,
This might seems a little 'out there', but has anyone tried doing ETL from an Oracle 10g ODS into an Oracle 10g DW, and from there into SSAS2005 cubes?

Dear Readers,Is it possible, like in Access, to link to tables in other SQL databases that are on the same server? I have a query that I originally had in Access that queered from multiply databases. It did this by having those other tables in the other databases linked to the database that had the query.
I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
Thanks

I currently have a DTS package that will transfer tables from an Oracle db to SQL 7. I am using the Oracle ODBC connection and have connected with the owners login and password. When I run the package through DTS, it runs successfully. However, when I try to run it as a scheduled job, it fails each time. I assume that this has something to do with connecting to Oracle. It's hard to figure out because SQL says only that the job failed. Has anyone else run into this issue?

I want to import a table called emp(user name scott/tiger) from oracle database to MSSQL database
Step 1
login to scott/tiger in oracle
Step 2
Create a table called emp
create table emp (empno int, empname varchar(20))
Step 3
insert into emp (empno, empname)
values(1,'aaa')
insert into emp (empno, empname)
values(2,'bbb')
insert into emp (empno, empname)
values(3,'ccc')
Step 4
Now I want to import this table to mssql using DTS.
I have used Data Transmission task in DTS for source query. I have given "select * from scott.emp"
I am able to get the exact result set. I am able to get the same values in MSSQL.
Step 5
Now I am creating another user called "test" and give access to "emp" table of "scott" user.
Step 6
Now i want to pass on "test" instead of "scott" in the Data Transmission Task.(i.e).
"SELECT * FROM test.emp" instead of "scott.test". I want to pass "test" dynamically.
how to do this.
My client require e-commerce website and expected to have more than 100,000 products online. All products currently manage on Oracle Application server which is behind the firewall.
Initially all products will be uploaded to online ms sql server and then whatever the products get change on oracle should be updated online on ms sql db.
We need proposed solution under secure and easy method to keep online products DB according to the oracle system.
All this process should be Automatic and Oracle application server send only updated data to MS SQL SERVER because client has more then 100,000 products on their ORACLE Application Server.
