MS OLE DB For ODBC With Oracle ODBC Source Headaches

Dec 25, 2005

Hi all,

I am having trouble getting linked Oracle 9 server in MS SQL Server
2005 Express to work properly. My machine is running Windows XP.

The Microsoft and Oracle OLE DB Providers have problems dealing with
Oracle's Numeric Data Type, so I decided to use Microsoft's OLE DB for
ODBC Provider and an Oracle ODBC source. When using the Microsoft ODBC
for Oracle Driver in my ODBC source I have inconsistent behavior.
Sometimes my queries are processed properly, then other times I get the
following error

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returned
message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr
failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returned
message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr
failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returned
message "[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"
for linked server "ODBCBEAST".

I have no idea why sometimes I can connect to the linked server with no
problems and
why other times it performs like this. I'm not changing anything about
the system I can think of. When I use an Oracle client (PL/SQL) I have
absolutely no problems connecting. TNSPING returns that the connection
is good.

This is unacceptable so I decided to try my luck with the Oracle 10g
ODBC driver. However when I use this and perform an openquery select
against the linked server I get back only 11 rows, when I know that the
database has over 100 rows (in fact when using the Microsoft ODBC
driver and it works that's what I get). I figured maybe the buffer
setting needed to be raised in the ODBC configuration so I took it from
64000 to 600000 (a magnitude of 10) but I still get back only 11 rows.
I'm at my wit's end.

Any suggestions on resolving one or the other problem would be much
appreciated.

Thanks much

Using SSRS With An ODBC Data Source (Oracle RDB)

Feb 12, 2008

I'm attempting to use SSRS (2005) with my Oracle RDB database (old DEC RDB), using an ODBC driver. I am able to create a report, and view data, but I need to add some report parameters to filter the data. When I attempt to use parameters in the query, I either get a syntax error, or a message that my odbc connection cannot use "named" parameters, and that I should use "unnamed" parameters.

Here is a snippet of my sql query:

SELECT Application_Notes.Lease_Application, Application_Notes.Followup_Code,

<...>
FROM
Application_Notes Join

<...>
WHERE
(Application_Notes.Tickler_date >= {ts '2008-02-08 00:00:00'} AND

Application_Notes.Tickler_Date < {ts '2008-02-09 00:00:00'} )


The "Tickler_Date" field is a binary date field. The above syntax is pulled from a Crystal Report, which I am considering moving over to SSRS. Ideally, I would like the user to enter a single RunDate parameter, and have the query do the following:

Where (Application_Notes.Tickler_Date >= @RunDate and
Application_Notes.Tickler_Date < (@RunDate + 1 day) )


If the user has to enter two dates, that will be fine, but I can't seem to get past the errors.


Thanks,


Paul

Issues Using Parameterised Reports Connecting To Oracle Using ODBC And Microsoft OLE DB Provider For Oracle

Sep 12, 2007

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.

OLE DB Provider For ODBC And Oracle

Dec 25, 2005

Hi,I created a linked server for MS SQL Server 2005 Express to an Oracledatabase using the OLE DB Provider for ODBC. My ODBC Source uses theMicrosoft ODBC for Oracle driver.I'm using the OLE DB Provider for ODBC instead of the Oracle OLE DBproviders because those don't handle Oracle's Numeric Data Type well.When I set this up yesterday it worked fine. However I log in today andattempt to run sp_tables_exec against my linked server and get thefollowingOLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"for linked server "WHATEVER".I can tnsping the server, and I have no trouble connecting with theOracle OLE DB providerI try to set up ODBC logging but the log file is blank -- same withattempting to set up logging for Oracle's network client. I've beendealing with crap like this the last 4 days, something works one day,then the next nothing (I've done nothing to change the configurationbetween these outages).Can anyone help me?ThanksFrustrated

How Can I Use Create Or Alter Statements With ODBC And Microsoft Access ODBC Driver (*mdb)?

May 13, 2007



Hi,



I am using VB.NET 2005 and set up an ODBC connection via ODBC.ODBCConnection to a MDB database. Therefor, I use the "Microsoft Access ODBC Driver (*.mdb)".



When I set up a ODBCCommand like "ALTER DATABASE..." or "CREATE TABLE..." and issue it with the com.ExecuteNonQuery() command, I get an error from ODBC driver, that a SQL statement has to begin with SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE.



How can I use DDL statements via ODBC?



I would appreciate if you could help me to use ODBC for that - no OLE, no ADO.



Thanks for help!

MS SQL Job To Extract Data From Oracle/ODBC

Nov 12, 2001

Hi all,

I would like some information on extracting data from an ODBC connected database. (oracle is the current master database).

I can connect to the oracle database, and view tables.

But I would like to create a job (in SQL server) that runs every hour to retrieve current data from the oracle database.

Has anyone accomplished this, or is there a tutorial about this procedure?

Any help would be appreciated....

Oracle ODBC Date Range

Jun 2, 2006

What is the Syntax?
I can say "SELECT * FROM Invoices WHERE INVOICE_DATE > sysdate", but not INVOICE_DATE > sysdate - 1 (in any of its variations -- (sysdate-1), trunc(sysdate-1), trunc(sysdate)-1, etc.)

If using ODBC Access, I can say INVOICE_DATE > DATE()-180, but that syntax doesn't work with ODBC Oracle.

On a less positive note, is this beta software? The Import/Export wizard exports tables that cannot be re-imported. That's Microsoft SQL Server to Microsoft Access. Varchar(3)'s turn into Memos, and unless someone tells me differently, nothing will turn a Memo back into a Varchar(3).

Can't Find SQL Native Client In ODBC Connection Manager In SQL Server Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)

Feb 13, 2007

I apologize if this is not the correct forum for this posting. Looking at the descriptions, it appeared to be the best choice.

I am running Windows XP Pro SP2. I have installed the SQL Native Client for
XP. However, when I try to add a new data source through ODBC Connection
Manager, SQL Native Client is not listed as an option. I have followed this procedure on three other systems with no problems. What would be causing the
SQL Native Client to not show up in the list of available ODBC data sources?

Data Source ODBC

Dec 8, 2007

Hi all,

I am new to SQL Server. I have some basic questions.

I have installed SQL Server Developer Edition on a Windows XP Media center edition. The installation is successful. Now I am trying to create an ODBC, but I there are some options which I am not quite sure about.

e.g.

1. How SQL Server verify the authenticity of the login ID?
A. Windows NT....
B. SQL Server....

Client Configuration:
Server alias: ???
Named Pipes: What should be the values of [pipe name]?

or should i choose other options?....


And I when I use Query Analyzer to connect to Server, the authentication fails..

Can some one point me to the right direction, or if there's some documentation on this subject, that would be very much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Unexpected Error With Microsoft ODBC For Oracle

Sep 25, 2001

Hello Guy's

I've developed some DTS packages on SQL 7.0, transfering data from SQL 7.0 to Oracle 8.1.6.
Until a few day's ago, everthing worked fine. From my client workstation I
was able to edit, test and run these DTS packs.
But then, (after installing Oracle reports) it stop working. I've
already re-installed SQL 7.0 + SP3, Oracle 8.1.6 client, NT 4.0 service pack 6,
nothing works.

I always get the message :

HResult of 0x8000405(-2147467259) returned
Unexpected error occurred, An error result was returned without an error
message


Can anybody help me on this one??

ODBC / Oracle Linked Server Problem

Feb 15, 2004

I have a SQL server that I am trying to link to a number of Oracle environments. After much tuning, we managed to achieve this although the four-part naming was not possible and we had to use Openquery and run pass throughs.

Nothing in our configuration has changed and SQL Server is no longer able connect to the linked databases. The Oracle client on the PC is fine and is able tnsping any of the remote databases. I am also able to create ODBC connections to the remote databases on the SQL box that are fine.

Using a datalink in DTS, I can connect to the remote databases. This suggests to me that there is something wrong within the actual database links. I have set them up using the working ODBC DSN's on the SQL box.

If I try and run a query against them in Query Analyser, I get the following error message :

Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].

If I click on the tables icon in EM to view the remote catalogues I get the following error :

Error 7399: OLE DB provider 'MSDORA' reported an error.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].


Any help that could be give on this would be greatly appreciated.

How To Create Connection Manager For Oracle DB Using ODBC?

Jan 17, 2008

Hi,
I want to import data from Oracle database programmatically using ODBC connection manager. I was able to import data by creating an ODBC DSN and then using it BIDS with ADO.NET connection using ODBC data provider for Oracle. Now I want to do the same programmatically. How should I create a connection manager? I tried using code below


ConnectionManager cmOracle = this.package.Connections.Add("ADO.NET: ODBC");

cmOracle.Name = "OracleSourceConnection";

cmOracle.ConnectionString = "Dsn=MyDSN;uid=MyID;";

But I get an error when acquiring connection
ErrorCode=-1071611874

The connection manager "__" is an incorrect type. The type required is "__". The type available to the component is "__".
Which one of the connection managers given by Microsoft here should be used?
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms136093.aspx
Has anyone come across similar scenario?

Thanks

ODBC Data Source Error

Apr 20, 2006

As other contributors, all I am trying to do is import data from an ODBC source (spelled 'non-Microsoft data source') into a SQL 2005 table. I can easily do this in SQL 2000 with DTS, but when I use the same DSN in VS 2005 it doesn't work.

I created an integration project, and made a connection in Connection Manager to the DSN and clicked Test Connection. It succeeded, or so it claimed.

Click OK and drag a DataReader Source onto the Data Flow surface Doubleclick it and select the connection manager per above. Note the error: Error at Data Flow Task [DataReader Source[50]]: Cannot acquire a managed connection from the run-time connection manager.

What does that mean? More to the point, how to fix it?

Append New Records From ODBC Source

Sep 10, 2006

I have created a data warehouse that pulls information from an ODBC source into a SQL database. The schema in the destination matches the source, and the packages clear the destination tables, then append all the records from the source. This is simpler than updating, appending new, and deleting on each table to get them in sync since there is no modify timestamp in the source.

There are cases where I just want to append records from the source table that do not already exist in the destination table, without clearing the destination table first.

How can this be done with a SSIS job? Also, how can the job be run from a Windows Forms application?

Connecting To Oracle 9i Server Using ODBC From An SSIS Package

Sep 7, 2006

I am trying to connect to a Oracle 9i Server to execute a sql task, but the connection when tested seems to fail with the following error from the Integration Services Project:

Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ERROR [NA000][Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-12541: TNS:no listener

ERROR[IM006][Microsoft ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed

ERROR[0100][Microsoft ODBC Driver Manager] The driver does not support the version of ODBC behavior that the application requested (see SQLSetEnvAttr).

The connection was configured and tested from Oracle's SQLPlus session. Please note that the port that the TNS Server is listening is not the default. Is there somewhere I can specify the port in the SSIS connection manager to resolve the issue.

I have tried OLEDB connection and that does not work either.

Any inputs will be appreciated.

Linked Server To Oracle Via ODBC, Return Less Records

Apr 22, 2006

I have an Oracle 9i server. To access the data in Oracle, I setup an ODBC connection to it and am able to return data from it using WinSQL (a general ODBC database client). The SQL statement is simply "SELECT * FROM COLOR" and all 133 records returned properly.

I need to copy the data from the Oracle server to SQL Express, therefore I set up linked server (by Microsoft ODBC provider) using the same ODBC connection as described above.

The problem is: only 32 records returned.

May I ask if there is any problem to this linked server setup?

Thanks.

Distributed Transaction Trough ODBC From MSSQL To Oracle

Apr 14, 2007


I lost few days to solve a problem regarding the connection to an Oracle database server (10) with goal to execute a distributed transaction.

The environment was:

Windows Server 2003 Standard
MSSQL Server 2000 Standard
Oracle 10g Production Edition

The connection was quite easy to make with the Microsoft driver, but the error was:
Server: Msg 7391, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d01b].

I tried to use the oracle odbc driver, but all kinds of errors were raised, regarding the TNS name and stuff like this. The real cause was that when you create the linked server you must to check the €œAllow inbound process€? in the provider options.

The Oracle ODBC driver allow distributed transactions.

Setting Up ODBC Data Source For SQL Server

Jan 22, 2007

I am running Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, and I am having difficulties setting up an ODBC User Data Source to connect to the SQL server. 
I have tried going through "Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Data Sources (ODBC)" to add a user data source. For the SQL Server to connect to, I have tried specifying "localhostSQLEXPRESS", "SQLEXPRESS", "(local)", etc. -- but nothing seems to work. When the DSN configuration wizard tries to connect to the SQL Server to obtain default settings, it fails with the error "SQL Server does not exist or access denied". (Same error occurs if I try connecting to this ODBC data source later.)
But I know that the SQL Server exists and I have been using it through the SQL Server data provider in another application.
I am new to this, so any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kumar

Create ODBC Data Source To SQL Server DB

Jun 3, 2002

We have more than 10 databases on the same server. When I try to set up ODBC connection through my desktop to a specific database (DB1) using SQL authentication, it acts weird:

-- I give the login (testkz) access to DB1, DB1 does not show up in the default database list; I tried to type in the database name, it is not taken

-- If I give 'testkz' access to two other databases (and only these two), even though I did not give access to DB1, DB1 together with some other databases show up on the default database list. Seems to me that there are some dependency among the dbs.

Does anybody have any issues like this?

Your input is appreciated.
