Oracle forms compilation error in Unix - oracleforms

We use Oracle ebs R12.2.5 enterprise edition(11i to R12 re-implementation project)
I took the existing forms.fmb file , did the retrofitting changes compiled using forms builder- SUCCESSFULLY compiled.
But when i put the .fmd file in server path and try to compile I get the below message.
can someone help with this, why this error occurring
Error
Forms 10.1 (Form compiler):Version 10.1.2.3.0
Oracle Database 12c Enterprise Edition Release 12.1.0.2.0 - 64bit Production
FRM-10043: Cannot open file
But the file is there in the path. so my question is if we compile a form in forms 11g builder , will that run in 10g version ?

You must modify .fmb file in the same version what the unix server is having. You can open 11g form into 10g form.
By looking your error it seems it is oracle form's 10g Version 10.1.2.3.0 then you should open that fmb file in your local system with the same oracle form's version then edit it and deploye to unix it will be successfully compiled.

Do not use Oracle Forms Builder 11g to Create 10g Forms. Create your Forms for 10g using Oracle Forms Builder 10g. There are certain 10g libraries/forms packages that are not applicable to 11g.
Check out this article about Oracle Forms and EBS version compatibility for R12 written by Prasad Akkiraju, Senior Manager in the Applications Technology Integration from Oracle.

Which SSDT version supports Oracle Database 12c?

I am trying to connect with Oracle 12c database using SSRS 2012.
Getting the following error. I cannot change any property of Oracle db but can change the version of SSDT if required.
A connection to an Oracle db requires Oracle Client software to be installed. It sounds like you do not have it installed or have a lower version.
To use data from an Oracle database in your report, you must have a
dataset that's based on a report data source of type Oracle. This
built-in data source type uses the Oracle Data Provider directly and
requires an Oracle client software component.

SSIS - Using Attunity connector with Oracle Express Edition

I've been trying to setup a local test environment by installing Oracle Express Edition. I've got a test database up and running and can query that database from Oracle SQL Developer. I then installed the Attunity Oracle connector. I found documentation that said I should install both 32-bit and 64-bit versions of the Oracle Client for Windows, so this is what I did. Actually these are just zip packages that you have to unzip and add to your PATH environment variable. (Apparently the people at Oracle haven't heard of installers.) I then created an SSIS package, added an Oracle Source component to my data flow and created an Oracle Connection manager for it. However, I'm unable to connect to the XE database. The error I receive is 'Oracle Home not found.'
Any ideas? Is it even possible to do this?

#Rubio,
You'll need to set your system environment variables for Oracle on the VM or local box you're running the SSIS package if that's where your version of Oracle Express resides. To determine where that is, the directory path should be one level above the bin directory where the sqlplus executable exists.
Here's an example setting: ORACLE_HOME=c:\Oracle\product\11.2.0. You should also set your path to include $Oracle_HOME\bin.
To set your environment variables in Windows, go to the advanced system settings, click on environment variables, add a new one under system.

Connecting to Oracle database from Report Builder 3.0

Our organization has a Windows server running SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS). We use SSRS to build reports that access an Oracle database. We were able to get SSRS to connect to our Oracle database by installing Oracle Data Access Components (ODAC) for Windows on our server. We installed the Xcopy versions - both 32-bit and 64-bit (don't know if we needed to do both; SSRS used to only accept 32-bit drivers). We were able to successfully set up a data source in SSRS that connected to the Oracle database.
However, we write our reports on development machines using SQL Server Report Builder 3.0. When building a report that uses a shared data source on the server - the one that accesses our Oracle database, we get the error
The selected data extension ORACLE is not installed or cannot be loaded...
What do we need to do to be able to write reports from our development machines that use a shared data source to our Oracle database?
You need to install ODAC on your development machines as well. Even though you are configuring your report to use a shared data source on the server, Report Builder 3.0 will use connection drivers on the local machine to build and preview report data.
Report Builder 3.0 still seems to be a 32-bit application (as of 6/3/2016), so you only need to install 32-bit ODAC package.

Mysql to SQL Server 2008

Am using Joomla 1.3 for one of my client website. and now I want to move it to custom asp.net application with SQL Server 2008.
What's the best opensource to handle this migration ?
In other context this answer is answered here: Migrate some data from MySQL to MSSQL
Since you already have full SQL 2008, open the Visual Studio Intelligence BI installed with your SQL installation. Then create a new project "Integration Services Project".
Therefor you create a new connection to your ODBC (should be wizards available). Then add your tables, there you can modify, convert, tranasform the data.
The complete project you can save and add as sheduled task to your sql server agent.
Here is a tutorial which explains more: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms169917.aspx

MySQL .Net Provider 5.2 does not show up in Data Source dialog of VS 2008 Express

I have installed MySQL .NET data provider 5.2 (through it's installer) but I could not see the MySQL data provider in Data Source dialog of Database Explorer.
I am using VS 2008 Express edition. Do you have any clues ?
Regards,
Jatan
VS 2008 Express (and VS 2005 Express too) doesn't allow you to use MySQL .Net Provider through the Data Source Dialog. The non-Express edition allow you to do the same.
To use MySQL in VS Express, you will have to include a reference to the MySQL DLLs from the location where you installed the Provider (most probably C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Connector Net x.x.x). Or copy the DLLs from the same location to the Bin folder of your project.
I do not think you can use MySQL in .NET that way, it is meant as a native .NET library for MySQL, so you will have to do things code-wise.
