2.1 Connection to an existing repository fails due to missing wallet missing information

Data Transforms uses the information from wallets that are downloaded from the database instance to create a connection to that instance.

If you have provisioned a new Oracle Data Transforms instance and are connecting to an existing repository that is based on Data Transforms 2021.12.24.00 or earlier versions, the connection fails due to missing wallet information.

The workaround for this issue is to upload the wallet manually. Follow these steps:

  • Download the wallet from the instance that you want to connect to.
  • Login to the Data Transforms interface.
  • From the left pane of the Home page, click the Connections tab.
  • Click the Actions icon (Actions icon) next to the connection and select Edit.
  • In the Update Connection page, browse to select the wallet file.
  • Select the service.
  • Enter the username and password.
  • Click Update to apply the changes.

From the Actions menu next to the updated connection, select Test Connection to check whether the connection is successful.

2.2 Connecting to an existing repository from an older Data Transforms instance fails

If you have provisioned an older Oracle Data Transforms instance, and are connecting to an existing repository that is based on a later version of Oracle Data Transforms the connection fails due to auth token expiry.

To avoid this issue Oracle recommends that you connect to a repository that is based on Data Transforms 2022.11.16.00 or later versions.
