DBMS_SCHEDULER. Run a procedure asynchronously in a loop

Hi,
I would like to run a stored procedure asynchronously (immediately) by calling it 3 times.Each time, the 'in' parameter to the stored procedure keeps changing.How do I accomplish this by using DBMS_SCHEDULER?
1) Do I need to create 3 different jobs with different parameters everytime ?
2)Can I just create 1 job and keep setting the parameter values in a loop for every call to the stored procedure?
3) Is this what I should do? create a job (should it be enabled?), set parameters and run_job?
Sample code snippet would be of great help!
Please help.

Hi,
If you create only one job then your three instances will run one after another and not in parallel - only one instance of a job runs at a given time.
So the easiest way is to create three separate jobs (with each having a separate argument value) but all pointing to the same program or stored procedure.
There is actually a way to do this with one job in 11g. You would create an event-based job listening on a particular AQ queue with the parallel_instances attribute set to true. Then when you wanted it to run you could enqueue 3 different messages into the queue and three instances of the job would start immediately. This is however a bit more involved since you have to setup the queue and the code to enqueue messages into it. If you want to know more about this I can look for some code.

Running a procedure asynchronously

Hi
Wonder if any one could help please?
I have a database procedure, called from a form button, that has a dbms_job.submit command followed by a commit (to enter it into the job queue). The job action is to call an additional stored procedure that carries out a number of inserts. As this takes some time, periodically during the execution, the job writes to a progress table (this is an autonomous transaction). The values can then be picked up by the form and used to display progress. The problem is that I would like to control the commit of the inserts when the procedure ends and control is passed back to the form. It appears that the commit to submit the job to the queue is also submitting the work done by the job action ...
I appreciate that the job will run as another transaction but am not sure:
1. How to stop the commit for the job also committing the inserts in the job action.
2. How to allow the form to commit or not the inserts made by the job.
Is there any alternative way of starting a job asynchronously ?
Thanks for any help offered.
Trevor

Hi Ino
It would be good if it allowed forms to commit but I undertstand why this will not be possible. With the current setup the procedure runs synchronously and the user presses a button to either commit or rollback the inserts. This means no feedback. With the job the procedure runs asynchronously but the form has no control over the commit then so the data must be delete rather than just rolled back. My concern is that the data will be 'seen' by other users before the delete. I had read the other suggestions on the forum but this involved nreaking down the procedure into chunks which is not so easy to do as it's quite complex.
Once again thanks for your input.

Remote Database connection error on local database while running a procedur

Dear Gurus,
I am trying to run a procedure to grant Select Access to all objects of a schema to all schema but getting below error messages:
Error report:
ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found
This is on local database and all required privileges have been given to run this procedure but I dont understand why this error is being thrown every time. I am able to fetch all the tables directly (i.e. SELECT object_name FROM user_objects where OBJECT_TYPE IN('TABLE','VIEW','MATERIALIZED VIEW') AND STATUS='VALID')
Kindly let me know if you have any solution.

Hi,
It seems you are fetching records from one database to other. for that you need to create dblink for that.
Create dblink first and then try to fetch records using that dblink.
ORA-02019: connection description for remote database not found
Cause: An attempt was made to connect or log in to a remote database using a connection description that could not be found.
Action: Specify an existing database link. Query the data dictionary to see all existing database links. See your operating system-specific Net8 documentation for valid connection descriptors.

Question here , developer can't find any output (results) as expected after running this procedure, so is ther anything wrong?
Thank you very much.

There is a good chance that there is another error other than -1030 but it is going into the bit bucket never to be seen. Check out Oracle Magazine articles on PL/SQL (http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/issue-archive/index-087690.html) for some good coding practices. Part 6, PLSQL: Error Management is relevant to exception handling.
You could use a PRAGMA EXCEPTION INIT(InsufficientPriv,-1030); in the declaration section and then do the following:
EXCEPTION
WHEN InsufficientPrivs THEN
     dbms_output.put_line('No privs for ' || USER || ' on ' || i.table_name);
WHEN OTHERS THEN
    dbms_output.put_line('Other Error: '||SQLERRM);
END;
or following your example
exception
   when others then
       if sqlcode = -1030 then -- insufficient privs
           dbms_output.put_line('No privs for ' || USER || ' on ' || i.table_name);
           -- raise;if you want to exit this block and not continue.
        else
           dbms_output.put_line('Other Error: '||SQLERRM);
           -- raise;if you want to exit this block and not continue.
       end if;

Flags needs to set to run stored procedure fast

Hi,
I need to understand what all flags that we need to set run stored procedure fast.
e.g. set no count on command is one option, please redirect me to other command so that I can use those for each stored procedure.

That is the only general option, however, no relationship to performance. Other options may be appropriate depending on the program statements.
To achieve good performance, optimize the stored procedure:
http://www.sqlusa.com/articles/query-optimization/
The underlying principles of stored procedure optimization:
1. Each statement must be optimized
2. Avoid unnecessary statements & excessive looping

Help on ORA-06550 & PLS-00363 Error while running a procedure from a packag

Greeting All,
I ran the following procedure from a package on a command line in sqlplus:
SQL> exec QUALITY_ASSURANCE.COPY_SW_RESOURCES(2009,2010,9508);Where '2009' is the old fiscal year, '2010' is the new fiscal year and '9508' is the error code passed from the calling program. But, I received the following error messages:
ERROR at line 1:

PLS-00363: expression '9508' cannot be used as an assignment target
ORA-06550: line 1, column 7:

Any thoughts, suggestions and/or advice to resolve these errors.
Thanks in advance.

Justin,
Thanks for your response and information. Yes, Theoa was correct the 3rd parameter is an OUT variable, and it is a numeric field. The procedure was called by a form as follows:
QUALITY_ASSURANCE.COPY_SW_RESOURCES(:BLK_CONTROL.FROMFY,:BLK_CONTROL.TOFY,V_ERR);But the form does not work so I am trying to isolate the problem by running the procedure by itself in sqlplus to make sure there is no problem with the procedure.
Yesterday, I was able to run the procedure in Toad for Oracle to a successful completion by providing the 3 parameters: (2009, 2010, null). Just wonder why I cannot run the same procedure with the same parameters on a command line in sqlplus as follows:
exec QUALITY_ASSURANCE.COPY_SW_RESOURCES(2009,2010,null);So, if I understand your suggestion correctly, in order to run the procedure with the 3 parameter successfully in sqlplus,
I have to declare the 3rd parameter in PL/SQL. That is to create a PL/SQL file as suggested and run the file, correct? CORRECT!

How run stored procedure in Crystal report?

I have table from query in report, but first I need to run stored procedure in report.
How I need to do it?

previous post not correct
this is correct
When I need to run my report
1) I need to run storeed procedure ( the stored procedure will update some tables)
I just used Add Command and added stored procedure in Database Fields, but I think the procedure doesn't work in report. Maybe I need add new commant and write there:
exec ProcedureName par1 par2
or
exec ProcedureName (par1={?parameter1} par2={?parameter2})
It's doesn't work. What I need to do?
2) I use some query in report
ex.
select t1.col1, t2.col2, t6.col3 t1.col7 t4.col1
from t1, t2, t6, t4, r4, ju, hh
where hh.col11={?parameter1}
and ju.col3=6
and r4.col3={?parameter2}
group by .....
order by ......
How I need to create me report? What I need to do first?
If parameter in stored procedure par1={?parameter1} in query
and par2={?parameter2}

Is it possible to trigger an error so that the running stored procedure is stopped?

Hello all,
I want to run an existing stored procedure and then I want to manually trigger an error/abort/interruption so see what happens and do some testing with that.
Is it possible to manually trigger an error/abort/interruption on a running stored procedure so that it is stopped?
If yes, how can I do that?
I hope someone has an idea. For me it sounds not really difficult, but I just do not get the idea how to do it.
Kind regards
Peter

Hello Visakh,
I dont want to modify the existing procedure. I just want to run it and than stop it, but not with the button to stop it, but "kill" it somehow with an error (with not destroying the database).
Nope you cant simulate an intermediate failure inside procedure code from outside. For that you have to modify the actual sp code itself
Another way is by doing data manipulation in such a way which causes a error in procedure but for that you need to revisit the logic to ensure you do changes in such way as to cause an error

How to use pool connection run oracle procedure?

Hi, All:
          I am facing a difficulty I can not find the solution. Maybe you can help
          me.
          I want to call an oracle stored procedure whenever I talk to datebase to
          make the application more efficient. I was able to run the procedure using
          oracle thin driver but not the connection pool using Weblogic jDriver for
          JDBC2.0.
          Please check the following code and see what I did wrong:
          The code in JSP file in Weblogic:
          <%-- JSP page directive --%>
          <%@ page
          import="java.io.*,java.util.*,java.sql.*,weblogic.common.*,weblogic.jdbc20.c
          ommon.*" %>
          <%-- JSP Declaration --%>
          <%!
          protected Connection con = null;
          ResultSet rset = null;
          %>
          <%-- JSP Scriptlet --%>
          <% try {
          Properties props = new Properties();
          props.setProperty("user", "james");
          props.setProperty("password", "aimjames");
          Driver myDriver =
          (Driver) Class.forName
          ("weblogic.jdbc.pool.Driver").newInstance();
          con = myDriver.connect("jdbc:weblogic:pool:hdj2Pool", props);
          String userid = (String)session.getAttribute("user.id");
          int subid =
          Integer.parseInt((String)session.getAttribute("sub.id"));
          String query = "begin pkg_select.sel_req_in_001(" + userid +
          ", " + subid + ", ?); end;";
          weblogic.jdbc.common.OracleCallableStatement cstmt =
          (weblogic.jdbc.common.OracleCallableStatement)con.prepareCall(query);
          cstmt.registerOutParameter(1,java.sql.Types.OTHER);
          cstmt.execute();
          rset = cstmt.getResultSet(1);
          When I run this JSP file, the compilation is fine but the result shows
          nothing. That's means I can not get the ResultSet for some reason.
          The working file when I use oracle thin driver (NOT use a connection pool):
          String userid = (String)session.getAttribute("user.id");
          int subid = Integer.parseInt((String)session.getAttribute("sub.id"));
          String query = "begin pkg_select.sel_req_in_001(" + userid +", " +subid
          +", ?); end ";
          CallableStatement cstmt = con.prepareCall(query);
          cstmt.registerOutParameter(1,OracleTypes.CURSOR);
          cstmt.execute();
          ResultSet rset = (ResultSet)cstmt.getObject(1);
          You may notice that I am trying to bind a parameter to an Oracle cursor. Is
          there anything I did wrong in using weblogic API? I just want to let you
          that in the weblogic JSP file, I also tried to use
          weblogic.jdbc.oci.CallableStatement and
          weblogic.jdbc20.oci.CallableStatement instead of
          weblogic.jdbc.common.OracleCallableStatement, but none of them seems work.
          I did check the bea site at
          http://www.weblogic.com/docs51/classdocs/API_joci.html#1080420 for the
          example to use:
          cstmt.registerOutParameter(1,java.sql.Types.OTHER);
          and I think I followed the exact procedure the example did.
          Please help!

In order to make servlet application run significantly faster, my servet how to use connection poo is much moreresonable?
It is reasonable to expect servlet to run significantly faster with connection pooling.
Is it true that geting and close a connection whenever
one time database access finished?
Already answered. Applications use a connection from the pool then return it when finished using the connection.
Will the solution affect the servlet performance?
Yes. Already answered. Connection pooling enhances performance by eliminating the costly task of creating database connections for the application.
Is there any official document to introduce connection pool program?

Can't Run Stored Procedure in Package

Hi,
I am trying to run a stored procedure that has multiple in and out paramaters. The procedure can only be viewed in my Connections panel by navigating Oher Users | <user> | Packages | <package> | <procedure>
If I right click <procedure>, the menu items are "Order Members By..." and "Create Unit Test" (greyed out). The ability to "Run" the procedure does not seem possible when it's accessed by user.
I have been trying to find an example of how to create an anonymous block so that I can run the procedure as a SQL file, but haven't found anything that works.
Does anyone know how I can execute this procedure from SQL Developer? I am using Version 2.1.1.64.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for replying. I did understand the basics of an anonymous block, but what I didn't understand was how to set the out parameters. I should have been more detailed in my question. However, I did get the answer here:

In this company there is only 1 person that works in the BPC technical area, and this is me. Im a beginner, so I pretty much know very little about this whole application.
Thanx for the information you provide, is very useful, specially since there is no info in the manuals about this stuff.
I only have 2 appsets, Apshell and this one, and I cant find a S. Procedure... however i'll look for the default at least.
If i just need to copy it and rename it, i'd be glad if you can confirm.
If this forum is not about solving issues like this, I dont know what is the usage for.
Thanx again

ADF page times out for long running backend procedure

Dear gurus,
I have an ADF 10g web page that invokes a long running backend PL/SQL procedure.
After some time, and while the web page awaits for the completion of the PL/SQL procedure, I get an *'Oops! This page appears broken'* from my browser (either IE or Firefox).
Does anybody know what setting to use to make my application endure long running backend procedures without timing out ?

What is the Application Server you are deploying to? In WebLogic for example, there are options to configure the server stuck thread timeout for instance.

Also, consider trying to figure out the exact exception or error message. For instance, if your are using a software load balancer solution it may be that this layer times out.
