Oracle to PostgreSQL Migration Using ORA2PG

Ora2Pg is a free tool used to migrate an Oracle database to a PostgreSQL compatible schema. It connects to the Oracle database, scans it automatically, extracts its structure or data and then generates SQL scripts that you can load into your PostgreSQL database.
     The cost estimation in an Oracle to PostgreSQL migration is not easy. Ora2Pg inspects all database objects, all functions and stored procedures to detect if there’s still some objects and PL/SQL code that cannot be automatically converted by Ora2Pg.
This tool is very helpful for the following conversions:
 

  • Schema conversion
  • PLSQL to PLPGSQL conversion


TOOLS:
Software Tools

  1. DBA-ORACLE //Oracle machine
  2. DBD-PG                //PostgreSQL machine
  3. DBI-1                //PostgreSQL machine
  4. ORA2PG        //PostgreSQL machine


INSTALLATION STEPS:
STEPS 1: (oracle machine)
go to https://metacpan.org/pod/DBD::Oracle and download DBA-ORACLE
tar -xvzf DBD-Oracle-1.75_2.tar.gz //Extract to DBA-ORACLE
Open DBA-ORACLE directory
Export oracle base path,home path and  library path

[root@server1 DBD-Oracle-1.75_2]# ORACLE_BASE=/u01/app/oracle; export ORACLE_BASE
[root@server1 DBD-Oracle-1.75_2]# ORACLE_HOME=$ORACLE_BASE/product/11.2.0.4/db_1; export ORACLE_HOME
[root@server1 DBD-Oracle-1.75_2]# LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ORACLE_HOME/lib:/lib:/usr/lib; export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
And next type the content on terminal
Oracle=#perl MakeFile.PL
Oracle=# make
Oracle=# make instal

STEPS 2: (postgresql machine)
goto https://metacpan.org/pod/DBD::Pg and download DBD-PG
tar -xvzf DBD-Pg-3.6.0.tar.gz //Extract to DBD-PG
Open dbd-pg directory
And type terminal:
Postgres=# perl MakeFile.PL
Postgres=# make
Postgres=#make install

STEPS 3: (postgresql machine)
goto https://metacpan.org/pod/DBI //download DBI-1
tar -xvf DBI-1.641.tar.gz //Extract to DBI-1
Open DBI-1 directory
And type terminal:
Postgres=# perl MakeFile.PL
Postgres=# make
Postgres=#make install

STEPS 4: (postgresql machine)
goto https://github.com/darold/ora2pg/releases and download or2pg latest version
tar -xvf ora2pg-19.1.tar.bz2 //Extract to ORA2PG
Open ora2pg directory
And type terminal:
Postgres=# perl MakeFile.PL
Postgres=# make
Postgres=#make instal

STEP 5: star Listener for oracle machine
su - oracle
Export ORACLE_SID=pearl
Sysdba / as sysdba
Startup
Conn muthu/siva
exit
===============================================
check oracle listener status
Lsnrctl status   ----(and) cannot work
Netmgr            (create listener and type db details)

lsnrctl not work create .ora files

home/network/admin
vi listener.ora

LISTENER =
