Mchl Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Most likely it is. You should search on how to perform full database dump from Oracle. Preferably in format that can be digested by MySQL. (Or CSV if everyone else fails). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mchl Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 .... You don't? Â I mean... how do you want to migrate your data without migrating your data? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FezEvils Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 what i means is, both db have same structure , but the oracle is on main server in head quarters, so they just give me password and username for the connection only. oracle has all the data, but mysql is empty, so i need to copy all data from oracle to mysql without copying the data structure once again.. that gave me headache..

Mchl Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Well then... I suppose you could select all data from all tables using "SELECT * FROM table", store the results on your HDD, and then insert them into MySQL... This could be tricky though... Â Seriously, won't they give you the datadump from Oracle? You should charge them extra. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FezEvils Posted January 29, 2009 Author Share Posted January 29, 2009 that why i got headache!! they only give me the structure without data, maybe i should them to give me dumpfile from oracle.. for dump data, i use oradump (sourceforge.net/projects/oradump ). do you have any suggestion mysql migration tools?

Mchl Posted January 29, 2009 Share Posted January 29, 2009 Never worked with Oracle, so I know no tools for migration from Oracle to MySQL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
