Issues happening after TTU13.10 upgrade - forum topic by Dominiq

Recently we installed TTU13.10 upgrade as many users were facing temporary connectivity issues for ABI and unix servers.
Post upgrade we are getting to hear all new things from users.

  1. For jobs running from several months, users faced problems regarding comments. Users when put coments within /* */, their jobs are running successfully, however after removing comments, they are facing errors if there are multiple SQLs to be executed.comments can be of length from one word to number of lines. For running jobs successfully, it is important to have comments. However, this is not true for all. We have jobs running from months, and if we remove their comments, then issue occurs.
  2. while we faced such issues for comments, other team faced issues for quotes. For column alias, they had double quotes like "SEL COL1 as "MYCOL1"" which is not running now. however when double quotes replaced with single quotes, there has been no issues.

Both these issues are happening for ABI Graphs, and post TTU upgrade. Can there be a relation with TTU or its just co-incidence? Can there be problems for ABI compatibility with TTU? We are clueless about such things.

Brett. Did you have Studio 14.10 installed or Studio 14.10.01? These are two different product codes.

Francine;
 
I had 14.10.01 installed and found the product key to be {BA32DE5A-4189-4287-9D9B-52A8A6AB1410}
 
Based on this, I ran a search through the entire registry for this entry and deleted the following keys/items based on this to attempt a manual removal of the software and also deleted the files on the file system for the old version:
 
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT/Installer/Products/{Entire Key}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/App Management/ARPCache/{KEY}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Installer/Folders (KEY with ProductKey)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Installer/UserData/{USERID}/Products/{KEY}
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/Microsoft/Windows/CurrentVersion/Uninstall/{KEY}
 
I am now in the process of attempting re-install and will let you know if it succeeds.
 
Thanks,
Brett B.

This simple SQL runs just fine if I type it on SQL Assistant. But if I copy paste this from notepad SQL assistant throws this 3706 error. There are times, to debug a code, I need to copy paste few 100 lines of working code to SQL assistance and it makes me type the whole code to execute it. what a waste of time :( did someone experience this before?
I am running a TD 14 client on a TD13 database. We have 1 test on 14, and Prod on 13.

Need help with selecting wide Teradata colum through Oracle Transparent Gateway - forum topic by deborah.j.hunt@boeing

July 7, 2014, 3:10 pm

Has anyone gotten this to work?  Apparently Oracle Transparent Gateway is trying to convert a character column defined as varchar(10000) -- only the first 999 characters are populatedm, but trim doesn't help -- OTG converts it to LONG.  The select / join gets an error -- illegal use of LONG datatype. 
Originally the user was getting "remote statement has unoptimized view with remote object", so they created a view that mirrors the Teradata view they're using...so now we have the new error above.
The column that's giving up the trouble is the first column in the table, and is defined as:
RANGE_STR VARCHAR(10000) CHARACTER SET LATIN CASESPECIFIC NOT NULL,
the query is a SELECT DISTINCT (no inserts involved).
Thanks in advance.

Can we able to perform all the ETL activites by using VIEWS ????? - response (3) by goldminer

July 7, 2014, 4:36 pm
$

We have been very successful in switching some of the ETL processing out of a seriel ETL engine and into the parallel efficiency of the Teradata RDBMS.  In many instances we have accomplished this utilizing correctly formulated views.  I would like to communicate a potential 'gotcha' when adopting this method though...  Once ETL starts getting 'pushed down' into the database, it can perform very well due to the MPP architecture of the database.  It also has the potential to perform much more poorly than the same processing performed in the ETL engine.  Why you ask can this be so?.... Usually the culprit is a lack of statistics.  Pushdown creates an level of stats rigor that was not present before pushdown became so popular.  Make sure your ETL developers are cognizant of the perils of the lack of stats when executing pushdown sql... or you can enforce by combing through the DBQL, logs which of course is reactionary instead of proactive.  A good point of load stats process is also very helpful in avoiding those pesky stale stats situations.
 
Some do not like doing things like this outside the ETL tool because of lineage, metadata, business rules, etc. issues.  I suppose there are pros and cons to both.

In Teradata you need to use Unicode client and server character sets. There are no levels to set.

ODBC Connection Error - Specified driver could not be loaded - response (7) by piyush.bijwal

Hi Guys,
Finally!!! i got it resolved yesterday. For us the main challenge was due to recent uninstall of OBIEE to the lower version i.e. from 11.1.1.7.14 to 11.1.1.6.5. So the OBDC detils in registry was causing the major issue.
Here's the step I followed,
1. Uninstalled the Teradata ODBC (ODBC-ICU-GSS)
2. I cleaned the registry for any entry reference to Teradata ODBC driver. (To my surprise those were still there, i was expecting that uninstall of driver would have done that as well)
3. I cleaned the folder structure for the ODBC driver on C:\Program Files\Teradata
4. I restarted the server, this was done to ensure that all system files and variables could get itself set right
5. Thence, i installed the Driver  in the order GSS-ICU-ODBC (mine is 64-bit Window Server 2008)
6. I checked the PATH variable to point to the Teradat directory
Boom... it worked. :)
I hope this would help others.

TPT Script to load multiple data types from a delimited file - forum topic by andydoorey

July 7, 2014, 11:57 pm
$
0

I have a file to load which doesn't seem to be in too unusual a format, but I'm not sure if it is possible to load it using TPT.  Can anyone let me know whether this is possible, or if I have to write some unix script to edit the file before I can load it.
 
The data looks like this:

SVC_NAME,OPUNIT_NO,DEPOT_CODE,OPU_TYPE,REGION_NUMBER

"Aberdeen",7240,"051","M",4

"Aberystwyth SC",7252,"067","M",6

"Middleton",7130,"002","M",3

"Aylesham",7120,"061","M",5

 

The first row is a header which has the column names from the source system.

The data rows have char/varchar fields which are quoted, and number fields which are not.  The fields are delimited by commas.

 

If I define the file as delimited it states that all fields need to be varchar/vardate.  This would mean that all the fields would need to be quoted, which they aren't.

Also, I want to skip the first row, but it seems that even if I set SkipRows=1 it still checks that it matches the same schema as the data rows, and therefore each of the fields needs to be quoted.

 

I don't think this is an unusual format.  In fact the CSVLD function would be able to split this out into the correct fields.  Unfortunately I tried using this function on a fairly large table of unformated records similar to the above and it caused Teradata to crash.  It seems more sensible to be able to load this using TPT into the correct fields in the first place, which is why I'm trying to find out whether it is possible or not.

 

Can anyone let me know whether this is possible or not?

One of the fast Export session has been logged off - forum topic by Proactive

Hi All,
My FastExport query failed twice both times the error in the log file was ‘RDBMS Error one of the FastExport session has been logged off’.
 

 
Kindly provide reason for session getting logged off as here the query was not aborted and there is no trace as of why the sessions were logged off in viewpoint either.
 
Adding to it, I tried to find explanation for error 2594 and remedy for it what I got is to delete the answer set spool file if necessary and then resubmit the SQL Select. So my second question is how to find answer set spool file? and Is it actually necessary? How far this remedy given can be useful? 
 
Thanks in advance.
