PostHeaderIcon Copy all tables from a schema to another one

Case:

I need copy the content of all tables from one Oracle schema to another one, specifically: I must copy raw data from a production DB to a developper one.

Context:

  • The DBA do not allow DBLinks
  • Oracle source and destination schemas share the same structure (name of the tables, names and types of columns, etc.

Fix:

Here is a small script I wrote, of course it can be improved:
[bash]
#!/usr/bin/bash
SRC_LOGIN=XYZ
SRC_PASSWORD=XYZ
SRC_DB=production
DBDEST_LOGIN=XYZ
DEST_PASSWORD=XYZ
DEST_DB=developmentDB

echo "select object_name from user_objects where object_type = ‘TABLE’ order by object_name;" | \
sqlplus $SRC_LOGIN/$SRC_PASSWORD@$SRC_DB | \
grep -v OBJECT_NAME | grep -v "-" | grep -v "^$" | \
sed "1,9d" | tac | sed "1,3d" | tac | \
sort | uniq > allTables.txt

for table in `more allTables.txt`
do
rm -rf $table.sql
echo "exporting $table"
exp $SRC_LOGIN/$SRC_PASSWORD@$SRC_DB file=$table.sql buffer=10485867 tables="$table" direct=y
echo "importing $table"
echo "truncate table $table;" | \
sqlplus $DEST_LOGIN/$DEST_PASSWORD@$DEST_DB
imp $DEST_LOGIN/$DEST_PASSWORD@$DEST_DB file=$table.sql \
buffer=10485867 tables="$table" \
fromuser=$SRC_LOGIN touser=$DEST_LOGIN ignore=y
rm -rf $table.sql
done

rm -rf allTables.txt[/bash]

A little more explanations:

  • echo "select object_name from user_objects where object_type = 'TABLE';" | sqlplus $SRC_LOGIN/$SRC_PASSWORD@$SRC_DB: this allow to retrieve the names of all the tables from the DB
  • grep -v OBJECT_NAME | grep -v "-" | grep -v "^$" : this removes empty lines and useless trace from Oracle SQLPlus
  • sed "1,9d" | tac | sed "1,3d" | tac: removes the 9 first lines and the 3 last ones. tac in Unix allow to reverse the content of a file
  • sort | uniq : sort lines and remove duplicates
  • exp $SRC_LOGIN/$SRC_PASSWORD@$SRC_DB file=$table.sql buffer=10485867 tables="$table" direct=y: exports the content of the table $table
  • echo "truncate table $table;" | sqlplus $DEST_LOGIN/$DEST_PASSWORD@$DEST_DB: truncates destination table. This is useful in case the script must be played more than once, for instance.
  • imp $DEST_LOGIN/$DEST_PASSWORD@$DEST_DB file=$table.sql buffer=10485867 tables="$table" fromuser=$SRC_LOGIN touser=$DEST_LOGIN ignore=y: import the content of the table

Some improvement ideas:

  • handle sequences, triggers, stored procedures, etc.
  • create the complete destination DB owing to source DB, ie do not assume anymore that the DBs share the same structure

PostHeaderIcon DBUnit and Hibernate: Beware of Collisions!

Here is an interesting case I have encountered this morning.

Context

I must test a Hibernate implementation of a DAO, using DBUnit and its XML dataset files as a minimal database. A CRUD unit test fails, I get this trace:

WARN util.JDBCExceptionReporter – SQL Error: 0, SQLState: null
ERROR util.JDBCExceptionReporter – failed batch
ERROR def.AbstractFlushingEventListener – Could not synchronize database state with session
org.hibernate.exception.GenericJDBCException: Could not execute JDBC batch update

Explanation

In my dataset, I had set some primary keys at 0, 1, …, 10. Owing to my Hibernate mapping, the primary keys are generated thanks to a sequence.
On another hand, with the CRUD test, the primary keys 0, 1, …, 10 are also assigned to newly created objects.

Here is the issue: there are collisions between the XML dataset file objects and the objects created with Hibernate, because obviously two objects never share the same primary key!

PostHeaderIcon “Position” is a reserved word in SQL!

Very interesting case. At firt, I spotted these errors:

SQL Error: -22, SQLState: S0002

and:

java.sql.SQLException: Table not found in statement

But here is the complete stacktrace:

I have helped you with red bold words… Can you see the issue?

Yes, indeed position is a reserved keyword in SQL! To fix this issue, you have no choice but to rename your column.

The issue appears when I try to deploy an EJB sending JMS messages from my Weblogic server, to another one, in another domain.

Fix:

  • I have not fixed the issue myself, I gave pieces of advice to the teams in charge of solving them. But I assume following guidelines are OK.
  • Indeed there are two issues: one on credentials and another on servers
  • Servers need trust each other. More information is available here. I assume trust is granted thanks to the use of certificates.
  • On another hand, credentials from my server, it is to say here “myRole” must be accepted by distant Ldap juridiction. I assume that distant EJB environment must something like:
    • distantEnvironment.put(InitialContext.SECURITY_PRINCIPAL, "myRole");

Now it should work!

PostHeaderIcon The domain edit lock is owned by another session in exclusive mode – hence this deployment operation cannot proceed

Error:

On trying to redeploy an application myFooApplication on BEA WebLogic 9:

weblogic.management.ManagementException: [Deployer:149164]The domain edit lock is owned by another session in exclusive mode - hence this deployment operation cannot proceed.

Fix:

  • Shutdown Weblogic instances (including administration application)
  • Delete the lock files:
    • $WL_HOME/edit.lok
    • $WL_HOME/servers/myFooApplication/tmp/myFooApplication.lok

PostHeaderIcon Get the list of tables in Oracle

Case: you need the list of all tables in an Oracle DB.

Solution: run this query:
[sql]select * from user_objects where object_type = ‘TABLE’;[/sql]
You can use a similar way to filter on table names, or get other types object such us triggers, procedures and indexes.

PostHeaderIcon Deploy a JMS destination queue with Spring

Abstract

Case: we have to send JMS messages to a third-party server, using Spring. Of course, we have to discriminate production, UAT and developments environments. We can decide to use one Spring configuration file per environment, but it is complex to maintain.

Here is the way I proceded:

Declare the factory

[xml]<bean id="myJmsQueueConnectionFactory">
<property name="jndiName" value="my.jms.QueueConnectionFactory"/>
<property name="jndiTemplate" ref="myJmsJndiTemplate"/>
</bean>[/xml]

Declare a Jndi Template

[xml]<bean id="myJmsJndiTemplate">
<property name="environment">
<props>
<prop key="java.naming.factory.initial">weblogic.jndi.WLInitialContextFactory</prop>
<prop key="java.naming.provider.url"><strong>${my.jms.host}</strong></prop>
</props>
</property>
</bean>[/xml]
The variable ${my.jms.host} is used to indicate the actual destination host. The value is given in a property file myConfig.properties, for instance:

my.jms.host=t3://127.0.0.1:1234

Obviously, each environnement needs its ad hoc property file!

Declare a JMS Template

It gathers the factory and the queue name.
[xml]<bean id="myJmsTemplate">
<property name="connectionFactory" ref="myJmsQueueConnectionFactory"/>
<property name="defaultDestination" ref="myJmsQueue"/>
</bean>[/xml]

Declare the destination queue

[xml]<bean id="myJmsQueue">
<property name="jndiName" value="my.jms.destination.queue.name"/>
</bean>[/xml]

Ensure the property file is in classpath

[xml]<bean id="conf">
<property name="locations">
<list>
<value>classpath*:myConfig.properties</value>
</list>
</property>
</bean>[/xml]
Restart WebLogic, deploy your EAR. Now it should work!

Notice: in case you’re not sure the distant host is up or not, you may add this attribute to your beans: lazy-init="true"

PostHeaderIcon weblogic.jms.common.MessageFormatException: JMSClientExceptions: Invalid property name, “my-personnal-id”

Error:

weblogic.jms.common.MessageFormatException: JMSClientExceptions: Invalid property name, "my-personnal-id"

Fix:

Rename the property as myPersonalId for instance. Indeed, owing to JMS specification, properties on JMS messages must be written in alphanumeric characters. Therefore, hyphen '-' and periods '.' are forbidden.

PostHeaderIcon Difference entre morphisme et bijection

Je remarque souvent aupres des gens avec qui je travaille une erreur, selon laquelle bijection et un morphisme (isomorphisme ou endomorphisme) sont synonymes.

Il s’agit d’une erreur, car si tout morphisme est une bijection, la reciproque n’est pas vraie. En effet, la notion de bijection met en rapports des elements d’ensembles donnes. La notion de morphisme rajoute une information au niveau des lois internes a ces ensembles. Considerant une fonction f d’un ensemble E vers un ensemble F, munis de lois internes T et ¤, on a:
f(x T y) = f(x) ¤ f(y)
Prenons un exemple simple, en notant R+ l’ensemble des reels positifs:
La fonction x –> x² est un bijection de R+ dans R+.
La fonction x –> exp(x) est egalement une bijection de R+ dans R+. Mais on a une information supplementaire: exp(x+y) = exp(x).exp(y). La fonction exp est plus qu’une bijection, c’est un morphisme de (R+, +) dans (R+, .).
