I am trying to setup a CDC in Talend on an Oracle database. I am following the steps as listed here: https://www.talendforge.org/tutorials/tutorial.php?language=english&idTuto=42
However, when i try to establish the CDC in the main DB conneciton, i get a message saying "Database information must be filled to use the cdc!" and the Create Subscriber button is disabled.
What could I be doing differently? I have created two connections pointing to the same database, and have also retrieved the table schema in my main connection.

I've recently joined a company with a mixed set of databases that include a Redshift cluster and some SQL databases. I'd like to use a single IDE to access both for analytical reporting, so I don't have to switch between tools. I'm currently using workbench, which works, but it's not clicking with me.
I do like Azure Data Studio, but it's SQL Server and Postgres only. Given the similarities between Redshift and Postgres, I thought I'd see if I could connect using the Postgres driver.
I've installed the Postgres extension and can "connect" to the database. However when I try to explore the database using the tree view, I get the error message 'Cannot Expand Node'. When I run a simple query that works in workbench, e.g.
Select * from [server].[database].[table]
I get the following Error message:
Started executing query at Line 1
cursors can only be used within the transaction that created them.
Total execution time: 00:00:00.019
I know I'm trying to do something that shouldn't be done. And if I can't, I can't. But has anyone here managed to get a redshift connection going in Azure Data Studio?
FWIW, I've come across a GitHub Repository that may be a Redshift driver for data studio - but this looks like a clone of the Postgres driver, with no activity since march (not even renaming the 'Postgres' titles to Redshift)... and therefore I'm dubious.
Getting the following error:
DataSource.Error: ODBC: ERROR [HY000] [MySQL][ODBC 1.0(a) Driver][mysqld-5.7.12 mongosqld v2.6.0-beta3]Unknown database ''
Details:
DataSourceKind=Odbc
DataSourcePath=dsn=DigitalTeam
OdbcErrors=Table
As shown in the image the error arise as i am trying to get the data from Reports collection from test Database. How can I solve this problem?
Per the comment by CodeCaster the most likely scenario of you getting a successful connection but not loading actual data is the fact you may have not selected a db from the dropdown when setting up the ODBC driver
After you setup your connection and port go to the last choice of Database: and select a db in the dropdown from the available list of db's in your environment.
Then when setting up the excel sheet for use of the ODBC data, via the data tab, choose your collection and documents from that collection should load.
I am new to Oracle databases(I am using Oracle Database 11g Express Edition) and sqldeveloper. I have this doubt
When creating a new connection in sqldeveloper what is actually happening?
Creating a new database or connecting to an existing databasE?
If I create multiple connections are they pointing to a single database or different databases, if the later then how to choose a database name while creating a connection
You are establishing a connection to user (i.e. schema) which resides in an (Oracle) database. One database contains many users, so - create one connection per user.
Creating a connection does NOT create a new database; it is done differently. I don't think that 11gXE offers that option; you'd need a Standard or Enterprise Edition.
No problem if you use multiple databases (most of us do). I prefer keeping them in TNSNAMES.ORA file, in a directory used by the TNS_ADMIN environment variable. Currently, there are 94 databases I have access to, each of them having many users.
In your case, 11gXE is (probably) installed on your own computer, and you'll use one of its users (HR?), so - just connect to it. If it is locked, you'll have to unlock it first, though - in that case, create connection to SYS (don't forget to connect AS SYSDBA), then
ALTER USER hr ACCOUNT UNLOCK;
ALTER USER hr IDENTIFIED BY hr;
and then create connection to "hr" whose password is now set to "hr" (all lower case).
I'm new to postgres so this problem is probably a relatively easy one for someone else. However, I have spent many frustrating hours trying to figure out the solution. I have an Access Database of metadata that must be kept updated for sending records to other groups. I also have a database using PostgreSQL and PGAdmin which also has these same metadata tables. Currently these tables in the Postgres database get updated manually by exporting the Access tables as excel files, and then importing them into the SQL tables. It's not the most efficient process and could lead to errors in the SQL database if someone forgets to check before running any queries that they are using the most recent data from Access. So I would like to integrate some of the tables from my Access database with my Postgres database.
Originally I tried just installing drivers to export the Access tables directly to Postgres which worked, but not in the way that I wanted since it just brings in a table which I would still need to manually update. From my understanding, I can create a server connection in postgres to access and that would then bring in updated data using a foreign data wrapper.
I tried to use ogr_fdw.
CREATE EXTENSION ogr_fdw;
When I try:
CREATE SERVER metadata
FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER ogr_fdw
OPTIONS (
datasource 'H:\Databases\20170712.accdb',
format 'ODBC' );
I receive: ERROR: unable to connect to data source "H:\Databases\20170712.accdb"
SQL state: HV00D
When I try:
CREATE SERVER metadata
FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER ogr_fdw
OPTIONS (
datasource 'H:\Databases\20170712.accdb',
format 'ACCDB' );
I receive: ERROR: unable to find format "ADDCB"
HINT: See the formats list at http://www.gdal.org/ogr_formats.html.
I also tried MDB and received the same error. However, MDB is the code name given by the website but it says that it needs JDK/JRE to compile and I'm not really sure if that's another type of driver that I would need or what it is.
When I try:
CREATE SERVER metadata
FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER ogr_fdw
OPTIONS (
datasource 'H:\Databases\20170712.mdb',
format 'ODBC' );
I receive: ERROR: unable to connect to data source "H:\Databases\20170712.mdb"
SQL state: HV00D
Hint: Unable to initialize ODBC connection to DSN for DRIVER=Microsoft Access Driver (*.mdb);DBQ=H:\Databases\20170712.mdb,
[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
However I thought after looking at the github help page for ogr_fdw didn't need ODBC and special drivers https://github.com/pramsey/pgsql-ogr-fdw/blob/master/FAQ.md.
A lot of this is probably due to my limited knowledge of the terminology when I'm reading through a lot of this stuff. Also my Access database is an .accdb file but since that wasn't working I tried around with mdb and ODBC as the "format" too. If anyone has any suggestions I would greatly appreciate it.
Thanks!
I have configured SQL Replication between two our two IBM DB2 databases ( database A and database B). The replication is working fine and all the data changes in one database are being replicated to the other database.
The issue I am facing is that if I add a new table in database A, then I have to manually add this table in Capture Control Server and Apply Control Server.
Even If I add a new column in a table for whom SQL Replication is already configured, I have to register that column in Capture Control Server and Apply Control Server.
Is there any way of replicating the schema changes automatically from one database to the other so that we don't have to manually add the new tables and columns in Capture Control Server and Apply Control Server for SQL Replication?
