Discoverer 3.1.42 User Edition Bug? EUL Corruption?

We have applied the 3.1.42 patchset but are experiencing some serious buggy behaviour.
The worst problem appears in User Edition if a Parameter is used in a Calculation and there are also Totals on one or more columns. When first created, this situation may work for a while, but further manipulations usually cause the query to crash with a message like: "Internal EUL error: EULParseNodeType error in canonical formula" (apologies: I don't have the exact message in front of me here). Once that error occurs, it seems to always occur in that Worksheet when a Calculation involves a Parameter AND there is a Total declared.
Is this a known bug? Has anyone else run across this? Does the Worksheet get corrupted in the EUL?
This one problem (oh, there are several others) is causing some significant grief.
Help is appreciated.

I haven't seen what you are mentioning yet. However, if you create a calculation or parameter in 3.142 and one of your users still has 3.141, the user will get an error message: Invalid combination of filters or calculations, query cannot be resolved. Upgrading to 3.142 corrects this for the user.

Discoverer 3.1.41 User Edition

When I use "Totals" to set up sub totals in a report I get unreliable results. It appears to create the subtotals randomly. Some total breaks will show a total line, while others will only show a line and not print the total.

I have now loaded patch 3.1.44 and it seems to have fixed the subtotal problem, HOWEVER, now when I export a report to a comma delimited file (.csv) I cannot pull it up in Excel. It says the file is not in a recognizable format.

Discoverer 3.1 not connecting with user edition

Hi all
Since yesterday we were unable to connect to a database using discoverer 3.1 as user
When i use admin edition i can connect to this database
I have checked for duplicate entries in the tnsnames.ora
The error i receive is : ORA-12154
If there was an issue with tnsnames then why can I connect using SQL*Plus as well as TOAD to the same database?
Please, any help would be appreciated

Command Lines in the User Edition, Discovere 4i

Dear All,
I am searching for an answer regarding the chance to use the batch command line in the Discoverer 4i user edition to export an xls file with the pivot format.
It is not possible to do this in the previous version, but it's possible in the 4i version choosing the xls pivot format while exporting the report interactively.
So we are looking for a specific parameter to be used in the command line.
Thank you for your help,
Carola Buora

Hi Carola,
May I suggest reposting this question to the Dicoverer forum

Your chances for getting the right set of answers are probably much better there. Hope this helps.

Win95-Installation of Discoverer User edition

If have installed the User Edition on a win95 computer. But now i have problems with my seriell connections. One programm of psion can4t connect to the palm and the computer is very slow.
Which dll would be installed into win95?
What is the Problem

Are you sure the Discoverer installation was the only change made to your computer? Discoverer doesn't use any serial ports, nor does any of our code try to deal with ports. Many of us here have PDA's and are not affected by installing Discoverer software.

Can't see business areas in Discoverer user edition

I have setup a business area and folders in admin edition. But when I go to user edition I don't get the list in available business areas. The folders are set to 'visible to user'. What could be the reason.
Thanks in advance.
Alok

Each user much have (security) access to the business area,
and have the 'user edition' privledge.
Both of these settings can be found in the Administration Edition
under the Tools menu.
While you're there, you can review the settings for the Query Governor
as well.

New Apps User defaults with all User Edition Privileges - Security Breach?

Please check the following Scenario/Issue and please let me know if anyone has a solution for it.
1. In Apps, created following Responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
2. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Privileges, assigned following privilege to "Payables Inquiry-Only User"
- User Edition Parent only (unchecked all child privileges such as Create/Edit Query)
3. In Discoverer Admin, Tools->Security, mapped following Responsibilities/Business Areas (BA)
- Resp: Payables Inquiry-Only User BA: AP Payables
- Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User BA: PA Projects
4. In Apps, created user DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assigned following responsibilities
- Payables Inquiry-Only User
- Projects Inquiry-Only User
5. At this stage, if user connects to User Edition;
- user is able to create new query in BA: AP Payables or BA: PA Projects depending on login Responsibility
- By default Discoverer assigns all User Edition Privileges to new Apps User including Create/Edit Query
Requirement
1. Create new Apps User DISC_INQUIRY_USER, assign it Inquiry-Only Responsbilities
2. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Payables Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Payables Inqiry-Only user
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
3. Login to User Edition - DISC_INQUIRY_USER: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- User can inquiry Workbooks associated with Resp: Projects Inquiry-Only User
- Should not be able to create new workbooks
Issue
There is time-gap between creating Apps User and login to Discoverer Admin to remove user privileges. This is security Breach, is their any way to change get around it.
- Discoverer gives precedence to Responsibility Privileges over User Privileges. Is their any way to change it?
- Is it possible to change default Privileges for new Apps User?
- I am facing this issue in Discoverer 4.1.48, Does discoverer Admin behaves differently in latest Versions?

Nobody helps you except yourself. ;)
So, this query get privileges for user PUBLIC
select eap.ap_id, eap.gp_app_id
from eul5_eul_users eeu,
eul5_access_privs eap
where eeu.eu_username = 'PUBLIC'
and eap.ap_eu_id = eeu.eu_id
and eap.ap_type = 'GP'
In my case
3001     1000
3002     1001
3003     1002
3004     1003
3005     1004
3006     1005
3015     1013
3016     1014
3017     1018
3018     1024
I research а corresponding between gp_app_id (second column) and real name of privilege and get the next list:
1000     Discoverer and Plus Privilege
1001     Create/Edit Query
1002     Item Drill
1003     Drill Out
1004     Grant Workbook
1005     Collect Query Statistics
1006     Administration Privilege
1007     Set Privilege
1008     Create/Edit Business Area
1009     Format Business Area
1010     Create/Edit Summaries
1012     Schedule Workbook
1013     Unknown
1014     Save Workbooks to Database
1015     Manage Scheduled Workbooks
1018     Unknown
1024     Create Link
So, the ID of privilege 'Save Workbooks to Database' is 1014. This privilege exists in table in spite of in Discoverer Administrator this option UNCHECK for user PUBLIC.
This is a REAL BUG!!!
Then I executed query
delete from eul5_access_privs where ap_id = 3016
and after that all became right.
Now please explain me this bug. And I have question - which privileges have IDs 1013 and 1018?
Thank you.

Required Oracle FND tables for Discoverer Install (Oracle App user)

Hi does anyone know of set documentation or, via SQL Trace, which existing tables Discoverer looks for when setting up an EUL? For instance, our install requires you select the Oracle Apps User Schema and put in the password for that schema where your FND tables reside.
Assuming some are missing in our current setup, what would be required in order for Discoverer to work in conjunction with the Oracle applications roles and responsibilities, etc.
I found this list in Discoverer documentation and confirmed I know have that setup correctly with proper grants, etc.. The EUL is created but does return an error of "Table or View does not Exist" which can be passed over and you can proceed into the EUL - but there is an error upon logging into EUL.
grant select on FND_USER to &EULOWNER
grant select on FND_APPLICATION to &EULOWNER
grant select on FND_USER_RESPONSIBILITY to &EULOWNER
grant select on FND_RESPONSIBILITY_VL to &EULOWNER
grant select on FND_ORACLE_USERID to &EULOWNER
grant select on FND_DATA_GROUP_UNITS to &EULOWNER
This is Discoverer 10g and Oracle 10g database.
Thanks,
Mike

Rod,
I have confirmed that the Discoverer Administrator Responsibility has Administration, Desktop & Plus privelages.
Furthermore, the account I am trying to login as - DSCADMIN has those permissions and is assigned that responsibility as well.
It should be noted that when logging into the EUL as the DSCADMIN account, it prompts me to create a new EUL as one does not exist....however under the EUL ADMIN account (where the EUL was created), it recognizes the EUL since it is the owner.
Am I missing something further - I've been through the documentation several times and can't figure this out - I have continually made progress but then hit a speed bump each time.
It should also be noted that DSCADMIN is a database user schema account and also an Apps user as well - but this is how it was setup in our old enviornment so I wouldn't think this would make a difference.

Consolidation of Oracle Database 10g Express Edition "Bugs"

I'll take a stab at cleaning this up. This is a collection of postings, reported as bugs, but not really bugs or difficult to understand/reproduce. These were filed in the Database General forum and they should have been filed in the XE forum.
Firstly, thank you for taking the time to report these issues and suspected issues. In the future, it would be quite helpful to everyone if you reported these in the XE forum.
1. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
This is not a bug. The developer toolbar will show when you are authenticated to the development environment. You do not have to be authenticated to your application for the developer toolbar to appear.
2. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
If data is present in the cache, this is up to the application developer (you) to implement the proper security which prevents this behavior.
3. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
This is a minor issue, at best. For this type of search interface, it is desirable to perform a case-insensitive query. Wouldn't it be a shame if you searched for "item" and it did not return results that contained "Item".
4. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
This is not a bug. Different authentication schemes have different data restrictions. It is up to you, the application developer, to easily implement the data validations appropriate for your application.
5. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
Insufficient information provided. You will have to specify what exact error message is arising and what data you changed which resulted in this error. A complete step-by-step test case is desirable, please.
6. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
Duplicate of #5 above. And still insufficient information.
7. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
Not a bug. This is intentional behavior. If I know I want to enter table name EMP, it would be bad from a usability standpoint to always force the user to employ their mouse.
8. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
This could not be reproduced.
9. Oracle Database 10g Express Edition Bugs
Almost identical to #8. Please clarify what the expected behavior should be.

How can a user (user edition) see a saved worksheet by other user

how can a user (user edition) see a saved worksheet that was saved by another if it was saved in the database?
thnx
Endre

If the user has given you permission to view their worksheet, then you should be able to open up an existing workbook as soon as you log into Discoverer. The disgression is up to the owner if you can view, or change their workbook.

User edition report got messed. Restore from DB Backup?

Hi All,
DBA new to discovere so excuse the ignorance.
Yesterday tried manipulating a report in Discoverer User Edition
There were 2 sheets, added one column in one of the sheet and saved the report. Surprisingly the other sheet 'Disappeared'.
Don't know wat happened, but I have already restored the DB from the previous backup on a separate machine since the report was saved in DB.
Now my question is:
HOW to restore the report from the backup? I'm an absolute novice and don't have much time to go thru the manual, just for now
TIA
Naveen

if you've restored apex to an auxiliary instance, then just log into apex on the auxiliary instance, and export the application (or application pages) that are missing.
its probably safer to do the following:
i) export your production apex appliation.
ii) import it to your auxiliary instance(using a different application id)
iii) copy the required pages from your auxiliary instance to your production instance copy
iv) verify your production instance copy works as expected
v) export your production instance copy from aux instance
vi) import v to your production instance.
I always export my apps and keep the exports under source control
that way, I can always get something back.
NB: The aux instance will need its own http server.

Starting 3i User Edition Web

how can I start the user edition without using the predefined html files. I want to start the discoverer directly from within the oracle portal.
Every time I trmed it I will be redirected to the start_ie.htm file.
Any help is welcome

Myra<HR></BLOCKQUOTE>
Myra,
There are parameters that you can create in Discoverer, but these are ones that you build yourself - you decide what goes in to the parameter. The parameter becomes a condition on the report that is generated. They are usually based on items that are in the report and are created using Tools > Parameters.
There is no where that you can look up a list of parameters.
This information is taught in the Discoverer End User course. Please visit http://education.oracle.com for a list of our currently available classes.

How can I have multiple users edit the same calendar?

I work on a team of about a dozen people. We already share individual work calendars through iCloud. We want to create a master iCal calendar that allows us to display our various deadlines on a given project. We want the people to be able to edit their own deadlines.
How can I create a calendar that offers multiple user Edit permission?
