I am trying to complete a tutorial on a simple javaEE project using wildfly. The first step is creating two tables in my database. As it says I should create my tables like this: "CREATE TABLE wildfly.name...." but it gives me an error saying thet wildfly is unknown.
Link to the tutorial: click here
My question is why should i put "wildfly." before the table name and how can I solve this error?
Thank you for your help!
Note: I am using oracle database instead of mysql
It's a misleading MySQL tutorial example because in Oracle syntax "wildfly." is a user(schema) in the Oracle database.
Schema/user in Oracle is a namespace for tables and other objects. So, when you issue such a statement - you're telling oracle to create table in namespace WILDFLY. If you don't have such user in your database or you don't have rights to access such user/schema - you can't create tables there.
You should create such user in Oracle database (or alter your statement to another user/schema name that you actually have in your database) and put your tables there.
For example these statements are correct because I created WILDFLY user before putting tables to it:
CONNECT SYS/****#ORCL AS SYSDBA
CREATE USER WILDFLY IDENTIFIED BY WILDFLYPASSWORD;
GRANT UNLIMITED TABLESPACE TO WILDFLY;
CREATE TABLE WILDFLY.MYTABLE...

How to create and use Synonyms on PostgreSQL as in Oracle. Do I need to create some DB link or any thing else. I could not find any good official doc on this topic.
Edit 1
Actually as of now i have an application which has two separate modules which connects with two different oracle databases; One modules need to access tables of other so for which we use synonyms over db link in oracle. Now we are migrating application to postgresql, so we need synonyms.
Edit 2
When i say two different oracle databases it means it can be two different oracle instances or two schemas of same db, it is configurable in application and application must support both modes.
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.3
Approach 1:-
Finally i got it working using foreign data wrapper postgres_fdw as below
I have two databases named dba and dbb. dbb has a table users and i need to access it in dba
CREATE SERVER myserver FOREIGN DATA WRAPPER postgres_fdw OPTIONS (host 'localhost', dbname 'dbb', port '5432');
CREATE USER MAPPING FOR postgres
SERVER myserver
OPTIONS (user 'user', password 'password');
CREATE FOREIGN TABLE users (
username char(1))
SERVER myserver
OPTIONS (schema_name 'public', table_name 'users');
CREATE FOREIGN TABLE users (users char(1));
Now i can execute all select/update queries in dba.
Approach 2:-
Can be achieved by creating two schemas in same db, below are the steps:
create two schemas ex app_schema, common_schema.
Grant access:
GRANT CREATE,USAGE ON SCHEMA app_schema TO myuser;
GRANT CREATE,USAGE ON SCHEMA common_schema TO myuser;
Now set search path of user as below
alter user myuser set search_path to app_schema,common_schema;
Now tables in common_schema will be visible to myuser. For example let say we have a table user in common_schema and table app in app_schema then below queries will be running easily:
select * from user;
select * from app;
This is similar to synonyms in oracle.
Note- Above queries will work PostgreSQL 9.5.3+
I think you don't need synonyms in Postgres the way you need them in Oracle because unlike Oracle there is a clear distinction between a user and a schema in Postgres. It's not a 1:1 relationship and multiple users can easily use multiple schemas without the need to fully qualify the objects by exploiting Postgres' "search path" feature - mydb.public.mytable.
If the tables are supposed to be in a different database in PostgreSQL as well, you'd create a foreign table using a foreign data wrapper.
If you used the Oracle synonym just to avoid having to write atable#dblink, you don't have to do anything in PostgreSQL, because foreign tables look and feel just like local tables in PostgreSQL.
If you use the synonym for some other purposes, you can either set search_path to include the schema where the target table is, or you can create a simple view that just selects everything from the target table.
I am working on Oracle 11g. I have created a table STUDENTS using APEX in my port: 8080 . After that when I use SQLPLUS in cmd and write SELECT * FROM STUDENTS it shows TABLE OR VIEW DOES NOT EXIST. What am I doing wrong here?
Ok...When you created the table using APEX, what schema was it created in? When you connect via SQL*Plus, are you logging in as the same user who owns the table?
If not, you'll need to grant select on the table to the user that wants to access the table, and also either specify the owner when referencing the table in your select statement, or create a synonym, or use alter session set current_schema statement.
I am new to SAP HANA and I created a new user in SAP HANA hdbsql(command line) by
hdbsql=>create user username password password
Now I am trying to create a database with the query,
hdbsql=>CREATE DATABASE dbname
But I could not create the database?Could anyone provide a solution for this.Thank you.
The SAP HANA database does not have the concept of different databases, but of schemas instead. So if you want to create a "container" for your tables, you have to create your own schema. The definition of the CREATE SCHEMA statement can be found here:
https://help.sap.com/saphelp_hanaplatform/helpdata/en/20/d4ecad7519101497d192700ce5f3df/content.htm
This is also a good reference for the SQL syntax of HANA. The most easiest query to create a schema would look like this:
CREATE SCHEMA schemaname
I found two document which shows HANA can create database.

I want to execute a query that selects data from a different schema than the one specified in the DB connection (same Oracle server, same database, different schema)
I have an python app talking to an Oracle server. It opens a connection to database (server/schema) A, and executes select queries to tables inside that database.
I've tried the following :
select ....
from pct.pi_int, pct.pi_ma, pct.pi_es
where ...
But I get:
ORA-00942: table or view does not exist
I've also tried surrounding the schema name with brackets:
from [PCT].pi_int, [PCT].pi_ma, [PCAT].pi_es
I get:
ORA-00903: invalid table name
The queries are executed using the cx_Oracle python module from inside a Django app.
Can this be done or should I make a new db connection?
Does the user that you are using to connect to the database (user A in this example) have SELECT access on the objects in the PCT schema? Assuming that A does not have this access, you would get the "table or view does not exist" error.
Most likely, you need your DBA to grant user A access to whatever tables in the PCT schema that you need. Something like
GRANT SELECT ON pct.pi_int
TO a;
Once that is done, you should be able to refer to the objects in the PCT schema using the syntax pct.pi_int as you demonstrated initially in your question. The bracket syntax approach will not work.
In addition to grants, you can try creating synonyms. It will avoid the need for specifying the table owner schema every time.
From the connecting schema:
CREATE SYNONYM pi_int FOR pct.pi_int;
Then you can query pi_int as:
SELECT * FROM pi_int;
Depending on the schema/account you are using to connect to the database, I would suspect you are missing a grant to the account you are using to connect to the database.
Connect as PCT account in the database, then grant the account you are using select access for the table.
grant select on pi_int to Account_used_to_connect
An external DB admin guy exported a production database and imported it into test environment. We are using Oracle 9.2. Majority of imported database objects (tables, views, idexes, packages,...) works fine, but we have problems with three specific tables: we can do SELECT,UPDATE, DELETE on those tables, but we can not create views on this tables.
In other words, the folowing works:
create or replace view v_test_view as select 1 x from dual; // we can create views
create or replace view v_test_view as select 1 x from someTable;
select * from problematicTable; // we can select data from problematic table
But this does NOT work:
create or replace view v_test_view as select 1 x from problematicTable;
--> ORA-01031: insufficient privileges
Background info:
db admin used import/export utility to copy the database schema
the version of production and test Oracle are not exactly the same (production is 9.2.0.8, test is 9.2.0.7)
after the initial import was done, the problematicTable was visible in object catalog (and database development tools), but when trying to SELECT from this table, we got back "invalid identifier". After that, the tables were re-imported and now we are able to SELECT from the, but not to create views on them
Any ideas?
UPDATE:
It looks like the situation is even more strange. When using one oracle session we can SELECT data from this table, in another Oracle session (using the same user to login!), we are getting "ORA-00904: invalid identifier"
UPDATE#2:
The export data that was used to import from was sucesfully used to import data to another test environment (lets call it TEST1) which is located on the same instace of Oracle as the problematic one (TEST2). The difference beteween those two environments are that TEST1 uses the same user (schema name) as the production, but TEST2 uses another user (soo the objects were imported into another schema name). The problematicTables do not have any special security properties that are different from the tables that works OK.
Matra
Is the user creating the view granted select on the problematic table via a ROLE? If so, try giving an explicit grant on the table.
From Oracle:
"In order to create a view in a schema, that schema must have the privileges necessary to either select, insert, update, or delete rows from all the tables or views on which the view is based. The view owner must be granted these privileges directly, rather than through a role. The reason is that privileges granted to roles cannot be inherited via objects."
It looks like there was something wrong with the import. So what our DB admin did to fix the problem was:
drop the problematic tables
reimport the structure of the problematic tables (columns, constraints, indexes)
after the structure was re-created he re-imported the data
he also played with the CREATE TABLE AS SELECT to copy the data back and forth
When he was re-creating the table structure he discovered, that the current schema run out of free space (it was not set to auto grow). The strange thing is, that the first import did not complain about insufficient space.
So in theory is that insufficeint space was the reason for corrupted data dictionary.
