Installing ORA2PG tool on windows 12R2 server - ora2pg

This is 1st time here. I am trying to install ora2pg tool to migrate data from oracle 12c to PG20. As per docs, I installed Strawberry Perl and ActiveState Perl on the Windows server where I have Oracle 12c enterprise version (and not the client) installed. On the same machine, I have postgresql installed. When I type gmake.exe on c:\ora2pg20\ I get this error message:
:to undefined at c:\perl64\site\lib\extutils\install.pm line 141.
Is it because I could not get to install DBD::Oracle? Or I am missing something else? Any help?

I had to get ora2pg running earlier today on my Win10 and faced the same issues.
I had also installed Strawberry Perl and ActiveState Perl - and found that the PATH envvar ended up being confused with having multiple Perl environments.
So I got rid of ActiveState PERL and made sure my PATH envvar was correct for Strawberry Perl.
Then I got DBD::Oracle from
https://cpan.metacpan.org/authors/id/M/MJ/MJEVANS/DBD-Oracle-1.80.tar.gz
After installing ora2pg and DBD::Oracle via the standard Perl Makefile process, and creating a valid ora2pg.conf file for my particular Oracle instance, it all started to work.
Good luck

Phpmyadmin not working after installing new version of Xubuntu 19.10

After updating to a new version of Xubuntu 19.10, I am getting an error
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ':', expecting ';' or '{' in /usr/share/php/Twig/ExtensionSet.php on line 70
when trying to connect to phpmyadmin. It works fine when I switch to php7.3 but I get this error message when using php5.6.
I need to use php5.6 for my older projects.
I tried to reinstall apache2, php and phpmyadmin. Nothing seemed to work.
It's not clear which phpMyAdmin version you're using or from where you've acquired it, but the description makes it clear that you've encountered a version compatibility problem. You are trying to use a phpMyAdmin version that is not compatible with the PHP version you're running. I suggest running phpMyAdmin 4.9.x, which is currently in long-term security support phase (where it gets important security fixes, but is no longer getting day-to-day bugfixes). Version 4.9.x supports PHP version 5.6 no problem.
As Williams suggests, you can use the phpMyAdmin repository (sudo add-apt-repository ppa:phpmyadmin/ppa) to keep up to date.

How to install pentaho community edition Server on ubuntu 18.04?

I have followed the steps in http://wiki.joanillo.org/images/1/11/Community_user_guide.pdf but I am unable to run the server
That document refers to version 3.x of Pentaho. Current version is 8.2. The doc is out of date by several years.
There’s no folder biserver-ce anymore, it’s now called pentaho-server. The script’s name is still the same.
You will need a JDK installed (1.8 or above, and if you install Pentaho 8.2 you should use openJDK)
i hope you have started the server, if not run this file using terminal /pentaho-server/start-pentaho.sh ....
please provide the log it will be in the path pentahoserver->tomcat->logs->catalina.out

Run MS SQL Server Express on Linux Mint

I am aware that MS SQL Server 2016 is compatible with Linux. Despite this flavor of SQL, I am needing to run SQL Express for training purposes. Is there a method to successfully operate Microsoft SQL Server Express in the Linux Mint environment?
I think this is an interesting question and shouldn't be marked down. After searching online, i came up with his tutorial on setting up mssql server on linux. I tested on linux mint 18.1.
http://www.tecmint.com/install-ms-sql-server-centos-ubuntu-linux/
I installed MSSQL 2016 on Ubuntu last night. Mint is Debian based so it 'might' work. The instructions are here ...
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-gb/sql/linux/sql-server-linux-setup-ubuntu
The installation process is very simple - in fact it literally took seconds, since it uses the familiar apt-get install package manager install which is available with Mint. One thing to be aware of is the requirement for openssl needs version 1.0.2 - this caught me out. I tinkered around trying to upgrade to the correct version on my ubuntu server and did have the correct version installed but MSSQL still would not install. So I created a 16.04 version of ubuntu and then it installed easily. I'm not sure if my comments qualify as an 'answer' but I'd just try and install it as if you have the dependencies I would think you'll be okay.

Install SQL Server ODBC Driver for Ubuntu 15.10

To install the ODBC Driver, I followed this tutorial: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh568454(v=sql.110).aspx
But when I run "sudo bash ./install.sh install --force" I get this message
Then I launched this:
What have I to do to avoid the "not found" message for "libodbcinst.so.2" and for "libgss.so.3" ?
The tutorial states:
Before you can begin to use the driver, install the unixODBC driver manager
Do you have unixODBC installed?
It means that the right version of unixODBC (read: the one required by MS ODBC driver for Linux) was not installed in you system or not found by the MS ODBC driver installer.
Check your unixODBC version using odbc_config.
Edit:
Alright, I jumped through some hoops here.
The library libodbcinst.so.2 can be installed by installing the driver manager, as plhyhc suggested (basically running ./build_dm.sh from the same directory). Follow the instructions here: https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh568449(v=sql.110).aspx
I found an alternative way to install de odbc driver manager here: http://onefinepub.com/2014/03/installing-unixodbc-2-3-2-higher-ubuntu-12-04-lts/ in case microsoft's script fails (which it didn't for me).
Running odbc_config --version should tell you if the install failed (the command odbc_config will not be found if that is the case).
The missing libgss3 (A library for Generic Security Services) can be installed using apt:
sudo apt-get install libgss3
After that running ./install.sh verify didn't show any dependency errors for me anymore. And installed fine.
When I ran isql however (isql WebDB MyID MyPWD) it had another error for me: Can't open lib '/opt/microsoft/msodbcsql/lib64/libmsodbcsql-13.0.so.0.0, that library did exist, however when running ldd /opt/microsoft/msodbcsql/lib64/libmsodbcsql-13.0.so.0.0 I saw it still "misses" libodbcinst.so.2. Creating a symlink solved that problem for me:
sudo ln -s /usr/lib64/libodbcinst.so.2 /lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libodbcinst.so.2
Original post:
I found this page: http://www.codesynthesis.com/~boris/blog/2011/12/02/microsoft-sql-server-odbc-driver-linux/
A little ways down he talks about what to do when libcrypto.so.6 and libssl.so.6 is not found. Apparently the versioning schemes for these libraries in RedHat EL are different then those for Ubuntu. He used symlinks to the equivalent libraries.
I realize these are not the libraries you found missing. But maybe you have equivalents? Maybe in /usr/lib?
I'm actually trying to get the odbc driver running myself too, if I find anything useful, I'll update this post.

How to install pgAgent service on windows

I am new in postgreSQL database , I recently found that postgreSQL support SQL Job by pgAgent. I am using windows XP operating system.
I searched lots about pgAgent on Google and trying to configure pgAgent on machine.
Download pgAgent package in which I found pgagent.sql file after executing this file JOB(0) icon is appear on my pgAdmin III object panel. like following image.
But I am facing problem to register pgAgent service. As per postgres sql documentation following is next steps to register services but I am fail to do this. or don't know how to configure pgAgent service.
Following step from postgre sql documentaion :
The service may be quite simply installed from the command line as follows:
"C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\pgAgent" INSTALL pgAgent -u postgres -p secret hostaddr=127.0.0.1 dbname=pgadmin user=postgres
but I tried lot to do this, please help in how to register pgAgent service with Windows XP.
reference link of postgre sql : http://www.pgadmin.org/docs/1.6/pgagent-install.html
Please help in this , Thanks in Advance !
PgAgent is probably not installed
The pgAgent download page says:
pgAgent is a job scheduler for PostgreSQL which may be managed using
pgAdmin. Prior to pgAdmin v1.9, pgAgent shipped as part of pgAdmin.
From pgAdmin v1.9 onwards, pgAgent is shipped as a separate
application.
And then it provides a download link to http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/pgadmin3/release/pgagent/
But the problem is there's only source code there. There are also SQL files in the tarball but they're useless without pgagent.exe.
How to install it
Apparently the correct way to install a pre-compiled pgAgent is with the Stack Builder installer that also happens to be the primary installation method on Windows for the PostgreSQL server itself. That's what is suggested on the official download page:
http://www.postgresql.org/download/windows/
If you have already installed PostgreSQL for Windows with this method, the installer is available under the name Application Stack Builder in the PostgreSQL 9.2 folder in Windows Start Menu.
StackBuilder will normally recognize your installed PostgreSQL version(s), and suggest to install among various programs pgAgent in the Add-ons, tools and utilities category.
Once you check pgAgent and continue with the installation, it will download it and launch its setup. The setup phase includes runnning the necessary SQL statements and installing the PostgreSQL scheduling Agent - pgAgent windows service. If this step is successful, there is nothing else to do, the functionality will be available in pgAdmin for creating jobs.
What's misleading in the docs
The latest pgAdmin docs at http://www.pgadmin.org/docs/1.16/pgagent-install.html has a Service installation on Windows chapter that says:
The service may be quite simply installed from the command line as
follows (adjusting the path as required):
"C:\Program Files\pgAdmin III\pgAgent" INSTALL pgAgent -u postgres -p
secret hostaddr=127.0.0.1 dbname=postgres user=postgres
However in the majority of cases this is not going to be of help because either:
pgAgent install is done by pgAgent setup as launched by StackBuilder and this step is not necessary.
or you have got pgAdmin alone and pgagent.exe will not be installed so this step is not possible.
pgAdmin will be successfully installed after downloading the compressed file from
https://www.pgadmin.org/download/pgagent-source-code/
there inside, you will find the file "sql\pgagent.sql"
Toss the content of this file into the Query Tool and run it. That will install pgAgent. Refresh your database connection to see the result. The tab pgAgent Jobs should have been created at the root level for your connection.
There is no need of using the INSTALL command from your command line.
I faced the same problem. I was able to get pgagent working by downloading and executing the stand-alone installation file pgagent-3.4.0-4-windows.exe from here: http://sbp.enterprisedb.com/getfile.jsp?fileid=11842
