Hi,

In order to migrate oracle xe to sql server 2008, I have tried to backup the current Database, while backup I have got the below error and it got failed. After when I open primavera, database is not connection. Oracle UK support is trying to restore but I have back up of 16th April and 2nd may only. The error happened on 21st may. So without backup how do I get the database back to work.... it was working perfect. All my company latest project updated are made on the days between 2nd and 21st may. So how do I recover those data.. please help me...

Backup up log:

Your backup is failing because your Flash Recovery Area is full. I do not know how 10.2XE would react to this, but certainly an 11.x database will not open in this circumstance. However, I am astonished that what you call "Oracle UK support" has advised you to perform a restore, because that is absolutely wrong. In fact, I did not not think that Oracle would ever provide support for XE on a de-supported release.
You need to clear space within the Flash Recovery Area. Probably the safest course of action would be, from an RMAN prompt, to run this:

backup archivelog all format 'c:\somewhere\safe\%U' delete all input;

C:\oraclexe folder there but safe folder I couldn't find it. I have logged a call with Oracle and their UK support is working on the same. But its been a week now. he suggest me to restore 2nd of may but that is not the solution right?.

Could you please help me where I can find this safe folder... I have done a search for all log in the oraclexe folder... but yet I didn't find.

There is something very odd here. You keep talking about Oracle UK Support. But I do not believe Oracle will give you ANY support for 10g XE edition. Furthermore, you appear to be in the UAE, so why would UK support be involved? I would have expected support, if any, to be from the Bucharest response centre.

In any case, I have already told you what to do. If you do not understand my suggestion, I think perhaps you had better bring in some outside support. A decent consultant would fix this in under an hour (though you might have to face a minimum charge - for example, I think my boss insists on two hours for me.)

One more thing - it is quite possible (considering the size of your Flash REcovery Area) that your 2 May backup can be recovered up the current date, in which case you will not lose any data. If anyone says that you will lose data, question his skills.

John,
When I logged a service at Oracle Dubai the support guy called me and he is from UK. anyways let him work on it.
Here, if I restore 2 may backup the data until 2 may will be there but regarding the data from 2 may to 21 may wont be there right.

Also here its really hard to find oracle consultant to fix the same. so that is the reason I have reached this forum.

Anyways thanks dear for your support.

This forum isn't meant for sales, but if you want a consultant, this person could sort you out no problem
http://skillbuilders.com/our-instructors/john-watson.cfm
there is a contact address on the website. I'm surprised you couldn't find anyone locally.

However, I must repeat: there is no reason to lose any data. I do not think your database is damaged in any way. THe information you have posted shows no problem that cannot be easily fixed. And even if the database were damaged, you have a backup and (probably) all the redo needed to recover it.

John,
Oracle UK updated the SR and asked me to do some steps:



Hello Shaheem -

I had restored yr EXPDP.dbf...etc within XE.rar, and following steps need assistance.
1. Shutdown yr database.
-- Goto C:\OracleXE\OraData folder, rename the XE folder to be XE_BACKUP_5_27
-- Goto C:\oraclexe\app\oracle, rename the flashrecovery folder to be flash_recovery_BACKUP_5_27

2. Then goto link: ftp://xxxxx

3. And then extract all of them.
-- Put extracted XE folder files into C:\OracleXE\OraData
-- Put extracted flash_recovery folder files into C:\oraclexe\app\oracle

4. Then goto cmd, type sqlplus / as sysdba, and startup mount;

Check if could startup your database, will wait for your update.

Er... I think it is a huge mistake. I see no reason to restore anything: indeed, a restore may well mean that you lose data.

You might want to ask if they believe that you will be able to recover up to today, with zero data loss. I believe that you can.

Up to you. You get what you pay for!
