With the help of OBIEE with Oracle Database Express Edition? SOLVED

I have a customer who wants a quick demo of OBIEE. They sent us as data source csv files. I migrated the Excel files for ease of use, but Excel files seem to have limitations on how I can combine columns, such as the concatenation and formatting.

I then loaded them in a database Oracle Express Edition, assuming that more "database" functionality would be placed at my disposal. I managed to load in the Administration tool, but the answers gives me the following error when I try to view the results of the Express database:

ODBC driver returned an error (SQLExecDirectW).
Error details
Error codes: OPR4ONWY:U9IM8TAC:OI2DL65P

[nQSError: 17001] Oracle error code: 12154, message: ORA-12154: TNS: could not resolve the connect identifier specified in the call to the OIC OCIServerAttach. [nQSError: 17014] Cannot connect to the Oracle database. (HY000)
SQL issued: SELECT COURSE_ENROLLMENT. CAMPUS saw_0 FROM BI_DEMO ORDER BY saw_0

Thanks for any help. This is my first attempt using OBIEE unguided.

Check your TNSNAMES file, see if it points to the correct server / db.

  • Oracle Database Express Edition used in a stand-alone database

    I have developed databases for years in access. I had a lot of people want me to databases for them. I don't want to make databases in access and then have to worry about sending a database to a different State and then find out that the user has a different version of access installed and it does not work properly.

    Can I use Oracle database Express edition to create a database with a front end that I can send to others and they can install on their computer and run it? Or do need to install the full Oracle Express? In other words, is there like a version of the Runtime?

    user13756579 wrote:
    I saw that you had to install twice last night, messed up my password. The only thing that that worries me is the database always current running on the user's computer, when well even that they could not use the database for months at a time. These databases are of small databases to keep the data of the members of the group. That is to say. name, address, phone number, personal information and perhaps a scanned document or two.

    I have looked at other database programs, but won't put a lot of money if I could develop only 3-5 small databases annually.

    You can develop your application in such a manner, that it will start service Oracle XE and stop it at the exit. Set the service to start manually. That's all.

  • Improving the performance of OLAP in Oracle Database 11

    Hi all

    First of all sorry for a very generic question, lately I been faced with some problems of performance during the generation cubes

  • Oracle options licensed 1:1 with Oracle Ent. Edition 11 GR 2 or pending?

    Are the options of Oracle licensed 1:1 with Oracle Ent. Edition 11 GR 2 (for example, the CPU core multiplier) or the number of instances of database on a host? In other words, if I need to buy two licenses of Oracle Enterprise Edition for a single host, do I need to buy the same number of licenses Oracle Option (again, based on a multiplier of the CPU core). Or by the number of Oracle database instances installed on this host?

    Someone has a link to an official options Oracle licenses document that States this? Found one for 11g, but it didn't go down in the weeds, saying: If there is no difference between the number of licenses required for an Option compared to an Oracle Enterprise Edition license itself.

    Asked the Oracle licenses reference option

    They are licensed 1:1 with EA, so 4 licenses EA means 4 licenses of the Option of partitioning, etc..
    It's in the Oracle store.

  • Java class to connect to Oracle Database Express Edition11g and URL

    Can I use Oracle SQL Developer to do or use it as the value of the URL for the host name?

    I'm just starting to learn Java and with it, learn how to use the Oracle Database Express Edition11g and with it the Oracle SQL Developer...

    At this point, I have the Express Edition is installed and the SQL Developer installed and were able to establish a connection and to run a query and get a result.

    I use Eclipse for JAVA.  I have a work of class that performs a query on a database/table in MySQL.

    So now I'm eager to make the same use as the database Oracle Database Express Edition11g engine.

    And this means that two different versions of JAVA that I need to get the right to be able to do.

    The first is the value of the url variable.

    I now like

    String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost";

    then

    Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");

    and then

    Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection (url);

    The thing I'm puzzled on is in the URL where I 'localhost' was supposed to be the term generic and not so much as the text, you should use.

    I see in Web sites like 3 connection to Oracle Database XE

    and decrease example 3-2 by specifying the URL of database using the XE Client Setup

    There I see

    JDBC:driver_type: [username/password] @[//]host_name[: port] [XE]]

    And just what is and what is not is explained here.  So what I ended up with was

    String url = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@localhost";

    So if it was just a text to rest for a name I wonder just such a value or name might really where.

    I noticed that view that an app called "Oracle JDeveloper" has been used to create the values.   I don't have such a thing, or at least I don't think I do.

    Do I need?

    I have Oracle SQL DEVELOPER, where I used the following to connect to the database of the XE.

    My choice for Oracle's SQL Developer Help

    Name of connection: Connection1

    User name: Rod

    Password: myOracle11

    Host name: localhost

    Port: 1521, which is the default value

    SID: xe

    Above so I have to host name set to localhost

    Can I use Oracle SQL Developer to do or use it as the value of the URL for the host name?

    1. I do nothing

    2. While wouldn't you say it

    3. no results from the earlier assignment.

    I asked "'can I use Oracle SQL Developer to do or use it as the value of the URL for the host name?" "

    I showed the choice that I used in SQL Developer to connect to the schema.  And I was wondering, now that I had done this case those are the values that I could use in the Java class that I wrote.  The web site in the first post of this thread showed connection but he was using JDeveloper and SQL Developer.

    So I was wondering if the connection that I made using SQL Developer would do the same trick, and if I could use the values I did there.

    I'm happy to announce that YES, The values used to connect using SQL Developer work exactly like JDeveloper.

    So, given that in SQL Developer for Hostname I chose the value "localhost" "Rod" Username and password "myOracle11".

    I did the following JAVA CLASS that worked:

    package VC_2_9;

    Java for COBOL - copyright 1999 Doke & Hardgrave programmer

    import java.sql. *;

    public class DataBaseDemoOracle

    String url = "JDBC: thin: @localhost';"

    / * String sqlQuery = "SELECT Name, SSNo, address, telephone OF THE customer;    */

    String sqlQuery = "SELECT CUST_LAST_NAME FROM DEMO_CUSTOMERS";

    //                                               |||||||||||||||

    Try

    {

    Class.forName ("oracle.jdbc.OracleDriver");

    Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection (url, "Rod","myOracle11" ");

    Statement statement = aConnection.createStatement ();

    ResultSet rs = aStatement.executeQuery (sqlQuery);

    Boolean more = rs.next ();

    (more)

    {

    CUST_LAST_NAME = rs.getString (1);

    /* */

    System.out.println ("name:" + CUST_LAST_NAME);

    more = rs.next ();

    }

    RS. Close();

    aStatement.close ();

    aConnection.close ();

    }

    catch (ClassNotFoundException e)

    {System.out.println ("Exception caught" + e) ;}}

    catch (SQLException e)

    {If (e! = null)}

    {System.out.println ("SQLException taking" + e);}

    e = e.getNextException ();

  • Oracle Database - Standard edition &amp; diagnosis Pack?

    The reason I ask, it is possible to buy the Tuning Pack and the Oracle Diagnostics Pack online (he does not say it is limited to the company on the product description) and my manager wants to use it with the Standard edition. Read the MetaLink following document 1084132.1 (link below), he said that these packs are only an option if you are already running business, is this true?

    So does that mean if I execute Standard, it is not possible to run, even if we buy the licenses.
