6 Trouble Shooting:
While installing the Informatica software, there are few errors which can occur. Few of the errors what I faced during the installation of this software at different machines: 1) [REP_32444] Connection denied. System error message: Repository Server cannot start Repository [RepositoryName] as it does not have its configuration. Solution: The Repository Server host name and port number in client tools matches with the information in Repository Server Administration Console. The repository name in the client tools matches exactly with the repository name in the Repository Server Administration Console.
51
There are no spaces in the repository name (both in the middle and in the end) in the Repository Server Administration Console and make sure the repository name in the client tools also matches exactly. The license keys are visible in the repository Properties in Repository Server Administration Console. 2) While restoring the repository we can get the following error:
ORA-01461: can bind a LONG value only for insert into a LONG column Database driver error... Function Name : Execute SQL Stmt : INSERT INTO OPB_ATTR ( OBJECT_TYPE_ID, ATTR_ID, ATTR_SIBLING, ATTR_CHILD, ATTR_DATATYPE, ATTR_TYPE, ATTR_NAME, ATTR_VALUE, ATTR_COMMENT, ATTR_SCOPE, BITFLAGS, VARIABLE_PREFIX, REPVERSION, CATEGORY) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?) Oracle Fatal Error Database driver error... Function Name : Execute SQL Stmt : INSERT INTO OPB_ATTR ( OBJECT_TYPE_ID, ATTR_ID, ATTR_SIBLING, ATTR_CHILD, ATTR_DATATYPE, ATTR_TYPE, ATTR_NAME, ATTR_VALUE, ATTR_COMMENT, ATTR_SCOPE, BITFLAGS, VARIABLE_PREFIX, REPVERSION, CATEGORY) VALUES (?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?, ?)

An error occurred while restoring this repository.
Solution: Check if the NLS_LANG entry is made at the System Variable and also at the registry. Query for the NLS_LANG key at the Registry and check if its populated correctly. 3) While restoring the repository, the following error was obtained.
ORA-01031: insufficient privileges CREATE VIEW REP_DATABASE_DEFS AS SELECT DISTINCT DBDNAM DATABASE_NAME, SRCNAM DEF_SOURCE, SUBJ_NAME SUBJECT_AREA, NULL VERSION_ID, OPB_DBD.VERSION_NUMBER DATABASE_VERSION_NUMBER FROM OPB_DBD, OPB_SUBJECT, OPB_SRC WHERE OPB_DBD.SUBJ_ID = OPB_SUBJECT.SUBJ_ID AND OPB_SRC.DBDID = OPB_DBD.DBDID AND OPB_SRC.VERSION_NUMBER = OPB_DBD.VERSION_NUMBER AND OPB_SRC.IS_VISIBLE = 1 ORA-01031: insufficient privileges Database driver error...
